I looked around. One of the dormitory buildings had entirely evaporated, leaving only a few scattered fragments, and the nearby park had been completely uprooted. It looked more like a battlefield than an academy.

The cause was, of course, Aria.

I took a deep breath. I still wasn’t fully able to utilize the memories I had regained. It would take more time to eliminate the sense of disconnect between my soul and body.

But even with that, it was more than enough to realize the vast difference between the two worlds.

The world of a dark fantasy, where the protagonist must inevitably suffer and struggle, and the world of a yuri romance, where such struggles aren’t necessary, were fundamentally different.

If the enemy is weak, the despair doesn’t hold, so the enemy must be overwhelmingly strong. But if the protagonist can’t defeat them, then the story can’t progress, so they have to be capable of overcoming them to some extent.

This back-and-forth strengthening of both the enemy and the protagonist gradually led to inflation. If that world was weaker than a yuri romance world, that would actually be more surprising.

No wonder Aria had been so obsessed with my power.

“What do you mean by ‘whose power was it’? What are you talking about, Mira? I honestly have no idea what’s going on!” Leona asked in a flustered voice.

“I’ll explain later. Did you think about what I said? About choosing between Aria and me? If you haven’t decided yet, you’d better choose quickly. The time has come.”

Leona’s face darkened as she looked back and forth between Aria and me.@@novelbin@@

She must have realized after what had just happened that no matter how much she struggled to choose between us, the time had come when she would have to.

After hesitating for a while, Leona finally spoke with difficulty.

“Mira… That Aria over there, she’s not the Aria I used to know, is she?”
