My portable gaming girlfriend

"Well!"

The edges of my outstretched fingers were blurred as if they had been mosaiced, and I couldn't move them. The surrounding cherry trees and the ground began to collapse, no, it was more like a partial mosaic of an old-fashioned display!

"Even Ah Yuan is going to abandon my world, it's worthless... Let's become pieces together!"

"Run! The data around her is starting to format! Even direct contact with the player will cause huge damage to the brain!"

Meow sauce rushed over and shouted.

This is formatting? ? ?

Suddenly recalling what the professor said in class, the data reset in the VR world actually looks like this? Is this all caused by Sakura?

"The space around her is starting to collapse! What are you doing standing there, run!"

The voice in Meow-chan's body shouted to me, then turned around and ran away in the opposite direction of Sakura.

I followed Meow-chan closely, and from the sound of 'da da', I could tell that Sakura was not far behind.

"I said, where should I go!"

Fortunately, there is no such thing as physical exhaustion in the game, otherwise I would have been torn to pieces with my physique.

"Don't ask, just follow me!"

Unexpectedly, Meow Sauce took me to school.

"Hey, how do you—"

The teacher at the door saw us running into the school and yelled at us.

"You stop—"

Unable to stop us, he turned to try to stop Sakura who was following him.

"Well--!"

The teacher let out a short mournful cry, I turned around and saw an unforgettable scene...

His whole being was quickly fragmented, then torn into pieces. The whole process was too fast, only a few drops of blood spurted out and splashed on Sakura's face.

"It's just data, don't look at it!"

When Meow-chan said so, I pushed open the glass door of the teaching building for it...

"Who are you, why did Sakura go berserk?"

"There is no time to explain now! We must find a place to hide until the program is cracked—"

When I played Escape from Zombie School, I definitely didn't expect that one day I would be in this situation.

"Many of these rooms cannot be opened, I have tried! Room B-21 may be able to..."

"Then go there!"

The door of classroom B-21 opened suddenly, and it seemed that Narumi Lily still didn't have a key.

"this……"

The game consoles and CDs that filled the room in the past are gone, and only a few chairs are left scattered.

Finally, is it still disbanded...

"Quickly close the door! Do you want to die?"

Not having time to think about it, I immediately closed and locked the door.

"Well, thank you for saving me... Are you a real person or a virtual character? Or a cat? Why do you know my name? Why do you want to save me?"

"Of course I'm a real person. Why do you ask so many questions in one breath? You'll know when you get out. Shut up now!"

I was yelled at by a cat...

"At least tell me why you saved me? If you fail, will your life be in danger?"

"...Of course I will be in danger if I fail! I saved you because I recommended this game to you, and I am partly responsible for your falling into this dangerous situation."

"You said you recommended this game to me? Are you... Wan Yue?"

"Yes, I am Waning Moon."

It... Ah no... She reluctantly admitted her identity.

"Aren't you a nerd, no, man?"

"You can fill in any information on the Internet, right? Why can't I be a girl?"

It's really justifiable, I heard that the dead house pretends to be a cute girl, what is the development of this in turn?

"How did you know I was in danger?"

"I have been... no, occasionally I use the body of Meow-chan to observe you. After I found out that I could not exit the game last night, I contacted the technical staff in the organization to rescue us. You idiot ignored me at all last night, and Meow-chan What a stupid name. People as stupid as yours!"

"No wonder Meow-chan never let me touch it, so you are controlling it? And the name Eternal Crescent Moon of Bloody Sky is only in the second grade?!"

"What's so bad about the name Eternal Crescent Moon in the Scarlet Sky? Compared to yours..."

Tap, tap--

"A Yuan—come out quickly—"

It's Sakura's voice! If the tone is not very familiar, I can hardly distinguish it. We in the room shut our mouths tightly, not daring to let out a breath.

"Huh? Isn't it on this floor—hehe~ I'll find you soon~"

"What, what's going on here? Whoa whoa—!"

The wails of some unlucky fellow in the hallway reached our ears.

"Oops, if this continues, the Sakura Club will kill everyone in the school! When will the cracking be completed?"

It was a long time after Sakura's voice disappeared that I dared to speak.

"Why do you still care about those data now! Deciphering is not as simple as you think, just wait patiently!"

Can Yue responded to me angrily.

"Speaking of which, can we go out if the cracking is successful? What will happen to Sakura? After all, what is the cracking?"

"You have so many questions, it's annoying. The cracking is done by the programmers in the 'organization'. I can do it too. Who told me to be trapped here... As for Sakura, the world collapsed like this , in the end, she might even devour herself, and the part of her self-awareness is likely to be in danger."

"Will she be in danger? Is there a way to get Sakura out of the game?"

"……well."

She sighed.

"Originally, we planned to use the improved 'Anorv algorithm' to extract her code while cracking it, but the current situation is difficult to do..."

"How much trouble do you mean by 'very troublesome'?"

"You need to catch her and go through the 'escape exit' together. But you have also seen that even you will be affected by that situation."

The cat's paw raised it and pointed at my palm, where it had completely turned into an indescribable mosaic. Although there was no pain, it was completely immobile.

"Wait a minute, Sakura has gone through so many reincarnations, she will definitely know that the player is in the game club!"

"Idiot! Every player joins a different club. It is determined according to the player's usual hobbies. Otherwise, how do you let people who don't play the game attack..."

"But... I seem to have told Sakura that I belong to the game club..."

"...Why didn't you say it earlier! Get out of here quickly!"

I ran over and opened the door a crack, luckily no one was in the hallway now.

"Run now."

The crescent moon rushed out from the crack of the door.

"Hey, where else can we go!"

"Go to Commercial Street..."

"Ayuan! So you hid here, and I finally found you~"

Tamagawa Sakura's voice appeared above the stairs. Then, she walked down the stairs gently, from this angle, she could even see the absolute realm... No, it doesn't matter!

Now fragmentation has not only affected her surroundings, but even herself! There are already obvious mosaic marks on the ends of her hair, and the clothes and skirts on her body are also full of holes... If it is placed in some H games, it can be said to be a bonus for clothes!

But I'm not in the slightest mood to appreciate that benefit right now.

"No way……"

"Although I don't know what you are, you are not allowed to rob Ayuan with me——should we 'fragment' you first?"

She suddenly ran towards Meow-chan and me.

"It's too bad, Wanyue, run!"

"I don't need you to tell me! I will be finished if I touch such a small body!"

This guy Can Yue rushed down the stairs relying on his small stature and nimbleness, you waited for me!

"Great, the cracking is still 5% complete!"

"How long is 5%!"

"About half an hour!"

"Are you going to escape like this for half an hour? My heart can't take it, and the life monitoring device keeps reminding—"

"Who told you to play the game for so long at once? If you faint and get caught by that crazy woman, even I can't save you!"

Now I can only hope that my lack of exercise body can support a little longer, the fragmentation is no longer limited to Sakura's body, extending to the sky.

Does this thing have the property of spreading and infecting...

"Did A Yuan abandon me just to be with her? So it turns out that A Yuan doesn't like human beings?"

Sakura not far away is pressing on every step of the way, damn it! When did she chase so fast? Obviously just a little girl.

"Damn you cat!"

She should be referring to the waning moon, of course I can't laugh at this joke.

"Who's the cat!"

Stop bickering in this kind of place! It's not convincing at all with this body.

"No! I really have to leave!"

"Haha——you were just playing with me, right? You wanted to attack three people at the same time, and the time you touched my chest... it was all just for fun, right?"

"It's not just for fun, I really like Sakura..."

"Then why can't you give up everything, even your life, to be with me?"

"..."

I don't know how to answer her.

"His life is not yours, why should he give it up for you? It's just a fictional character, don't be too arrogant!"

But Canyue answered for me. After chasing and chasing, I found that Sakura was indeed getting closer to us...

After all, it's not how fast she runs, but the surrounding space is becoming more and more unstable due to formatting.

"Sakura... I still have family and friends, so I can't be trapped here. But I didn't lie to you, I really want to be with you."

"Do you think I will believe this kind of nonsense—"

The entire Yuying Town has now collapsed into pieces. With Sakura's sharp cry, large pieces of 'shards' fell from the sky, like the rain of cherry blossoms at the most blooming moment—and the areas where the pieces fell turned into black holes.

"Even if 2892314 people have left you, only I will not lie to you!"

...Can't run away anymore, I just stopped and looked at her. Because I could feel that apart from anger, there was deep despair in her voice.

"Stupid, are you waiting to die?"

Wanyue also stopped and shouted behind me.

Yes, I have already felt the collapse of the surrounding space, as if being pulled by dozens of forces. The fragmentation became more and more serious, and even the ground began to crack.

"Damn it, the whole world has collapsed like this, why hasn't the cracking been completed yet? If this continues, I really want to stay here..."

"Sakura, listen to me, I know a way to let you leave this world with me."

"What do you want, idiot—"

"...leave this world?"

"Yes, as long as you hold my hand and enter the 'escape exit' together, you can leave this world."

I stopped and reached out to Sakura, I had to do something... Sakura shouldn't be like this, she is such a cute and gentle girl.

"fraud!"

Sakura didn't believe my words at all.

"I did not lie to you!"

"Someone said that to you before, but he never came back!"

Is this the reason... I suddenly thought of the incidents of the game that was rumored on the Internet that caused injuries, could this be all...

"So this time... I won't make the same mistakes again, and no one... can ever leave my side again!"

Speaking of this, Sakura seems to be more emotionally unstable, and the surrounding mosaics are getting more and more serious...

"Sakura stop! If this goes on, you yourself will..."

"Shut up! You are all selfish guys, playing with other people's feelings for your own pleasure and desire! After all, A Yuan, you will talk like those people and disappear from my eyes completely!"

Sakura's emotions were completely out of control, and the scattered mosaics even started to shoot out like sharp swords.

"This world has collapsed. If you don't leave this world, you will die."

Canyue spoke for me at this moment.

"Hmph, don't get me wrong. If you don't persuade her, you will always stand here to persuade her, right? If you delay the chance to leave because of this...you are always obsessed with me in inexplicable places. I saw it once."

"Moon Moon, you..."

"Stop talking nonsense, time is running out, it's up to you how you want to save her, and don't blame me if you die."

[Canyue, the cracking is successful, hurry up to the 'escape exit'. 】

An emotionless electrosynthetic voice, echoing throughout the world, seemed to come from outside those holes in the sky.

"Where is the escape exit?"

[Just 20 meters behind you. 】

A black hole loomed in the center of the street behind the crescent moon.

[The world is collapsing at an accelerated rate, if you don't escape within 3 minutes, you will all die. 】

"Sakura...I didn't lie to you. Before I came here, I was just an otaku who failed at everything. Escaping from reality, escaping from the past, I was an idiot who had never had anything to do with girls."

I held out my hand to her again. Even if the whole hand is 'fragmented' this time, I won't take it back.

"But here I met you, even a boring and idiot like me can be treated with tenderness."

"What's the use of saying these beautiful words? Ah Yuan will eventually leave that black hole while I'm not paying attention, right?"

Sakura sneered, her sick face full of disdain.

"Didn't I say...you are not a special existence, but I am tired of that kind of reincarnation, no one can leave here this time!"

The sharp swords made of mosaics surged out, and some of them hit my body directly...

"Look? You said you liked me and thought I was gentle, but now you are also facing danger, and you will turn around and run away immediately, won't you?"

"Won't!"

Although the control of my body was gradually lost, I still chose to walk towards her...

"Hehe... Aren't you afraid that if you approach me, you will be 'fragmented'? I can't control it at all?"

She seemed to be looking at something ridiculous, but full of sadness.

"Are you crazy? I didn't say that, Ah Yuan is not special, I would do it to anyone!"

"To me, you like me! You admitted my difference and accepted my confession!"

"What are you doing! Don't come here!"

I am not a person in this world, unless I am completely 'fragmented', I will not really lose anything because of this, even if it does cause some damage to myself, I will not just sit and watch the girl I like disappear like this !

"Why are you doing this..."

"Why? Save the girl who accepted my confession... Do you need a reason!"

When I said try my best, I almost shouted desperately. Even though most of my body had lost its mobility, I still didn't stop my steps.

The gravel splashed on the road, the dilapidated billboards, and the innocent passers-by involved, the entire game will be completely formatted if this continues.

"Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! I've had enough! Why am I the only one being treated like this? Why am I the only one remembering this damn reincarnation? So lonely, so helpless, no one can help me , so is Dad, so is Jasmine... everyone is."

Maybe this is the real Sakura, the artificial intelligence that has gone through the indescribable number of reincarnations and kept the memory, just like a child who just wants a partner...

If so, it should be more...

"Hahaha... No one can forget this time, A Yuan, you are different, you can stay with me. No... no, you must stay with me! We will always be together forever~ "

With morbid laughter and almost distorted smile, Sakura seems to have not noticed that the streets around her and even herself have been plunged into the vortex of format...

"This guy's logic is completely abnormal. Time is running out and we will all be finished!"

The voice of the waning moon became sharp and distant...

"She helped me before, this time I changed me."

"What do you want to do, this is not at all the way to explain clearly!"

"Then... just pull her out!"

Two million times of reincarnation, as a number, has lost the meaning of calculation, and I can't understand how much torture and despair Sakura has suffered...

It’s too arrogant to say that she understands her. It doesn’t matter if you stand up and talk without back pain, or you can be an afterthought. If there is one thing this old game with simple logic has taught me, it is that everyone has the right to the pursuit of happiness.

"Ayuan is just talking! Soon Ayuan will leave me like everyone else. Once you are in danger, you will abandon me and our agreement as soon as possible!"

Whether it is an AI or a player, if Sakura is really the artificial intelligence I have been pursuing, I have no reason to give up my pursuit and escape alone.

"I won't!"

Sakura’s hope is not to be lonely anymore, but to live like an ordinary girl. I like that all her confessions are her own sincerity. exception.

I won't make her an exception!

"Come with me, get out of here!"

Finally, after paying a terrible price, I was close enough to Sakura.

"How is it possible... A Yuan, are you dying! If this continues, you..."

Sakura's eyes were full of doubts and a little shaken.

Maybe it's because I'm a player, the speed of 'fragmentation' is slower than normal data, and it works... Now Sakura is no longer as strong as before, and it seems that this has affected her as well.

just a little bit...

"Come with me to the outside world!"

With this level of collapse, if you don’t bring Sakura into the ‘escape exit’...

"Grab my hand!"

"A Yuan, I..."

Sakura raised her head slowly, and I hugged her tightly in the center of the vortex of the mosaic. Sakura's face was full of tears when her eyes became clear again.

"Don't cry... believe it now? I didn't lie to you..."

"Why do you have to do this? You will die at any time?"

The hand I held her seemed to be constantly being eroded by the mosaic, and most of the two of them had lost their ability to move.

"What stupid things are you talking about?"

"Ayuan..."

"Although you are an artificial intelligence, you are completely different from the previous ones! You are self-aware, intellectual and understanding, and you are my girlfriend!"

In the end, she was self-defeating. She acted without a plan, and acted recklessly at the top of her head. No matter how you look at it, it is impossible to take her to the escape exit...

"I'm not a monster..."

Sakura's eyes returned to clarity, she was the Sakura I was familiar with.

"How can there be such a cute monster in the world!"

But it doesn't matter anymore.

In the end, I am an otaku who accomplish nothing...

In fact, I don't seem to have much concept of life and death.

I slowly closed my eyes, wondering if those vegetative and brain-dead people circulating on the Internet had experienced similar things?

This is really an ending suitable for an otaku... holding his virtual "wife" and disappearing forever...

"You guys have been bothering me from beginning to end!"

Just when I thought everything was over, I suddenly realized that I was being dragged towards the escape exit by something.

"Can...moon?"

The small body of the white cat exploded with a force completely inconsistent with its size, biting my collar and pulling desperately.

"If I become a vegetable because of this, I will never let you go!"

It's like the last few seconds before the bomb was dismantled in the movie. At the critical moment, we passed through the "escape exit"...

Crack-crack-crack-crack-the whole world crumbles behind us.
