Chapter 432: Awakening Her Part 2

Alice's alter ego was stunned for a moment. She realized that I didn't care about the original at all.

She had underestimated just how stubborn and petty I could be. 

"I won't be able to wake up if you don't help me," she tried to threaten me, her voice tinged with desperation 

I could have continued to be stubborn, but I remembered that I still had to visit Ayumi later. I had been neglecting her too much lately. 

"You're really troublesome," I sighed, realizing I had no choice but to help her. 

"So, how can I help?" I asked her, not wanting to waste any more time. 

"Thank you!" she exclaimed, jumping in joy upon hearing my confirmation. 

"She's under the castle. The trauma she experienced triggered her defense mechanism, so now she can't wake up. I'm powerless to do anything since I'm restricted in this place," she explained. 

"I thought you created this place," I mused aloud.
