Chapter 255: Chapter 255
Takumi smiled as he watched Tokisaki Kurumi stretch out her hand and carefully touch his.
The moment their fingers touched, the 'spiritual crystal' within Kurumi's body made contact with him. Kurumi felt as if the 'time' and 'spiritual crystal' within her had found the source of life. She could clearly sense a connection with this young creator.
At the same time, she felt the power he possessed—a power beyond her imagination, containing everything in the 'universe.' As he had said, he was truly the Creator of the universe.
Tokisaki Kurumi's heartbeat quickened, her burgundy eyes reflecting the boy's perfect face, and her delicate lips, like cherry blossom petals, pursed slightly. She knew she had made the right bet. Why would a Creator from another world, who had come to seek the 'Kabbalah Tree of Life,' bother deceiving her?
With that thought, she lifted her waterfall-like bangs, revealing her hidden beauty. Her right eye formed a time dial, and she lifted her skirt with both hands, giving an elegant bow that naturally exuded her devilish charm.
"Hehe, then, please take care of me in the future, Mr. Creator."
Takumi smiled and said, "My real name is Takumi. I will take care of you from now on, my angel, Kurumi."
As the guardian angel of the 'Kabbalah Tree of Life' fragment, Kurumi would be accompanied by the strength and power of the 'Kabbalah Tree of Life' from now on. Though he could replace people once he mastered the 'Kabbalah Tree of Life,' why would he?
From now on, Kurumi's status in the Teyvat universe would be equivalent to that of a Star God in the Imaginary Number Tree universe—she would hold the basic rules of the universe.
Kurumi tapped her lips with her finger. "Lord Takumi, I will remember it. After all, from now on, I will always be by your side."
There was a pause.
"So, about what you said—saving everyone?"
Takumi smiled. "You're quite impatient, aren't you? You're supposed to be the angel of time. Come on, I'll take you back thirty years. From there, we can prevent all the tragedies."
As he spoke, he opened his arms and motioned for Tokisaki Kurumi to hug him.
Kurumi hesitated for a moment. She had never had such close contact with anyone before, but now she was his 'angel,' and they would be together forever. She had no reason to hesitate.
She dared to love and hate. Now that she had decided to give everything, she wouldn't hold back, her voice full of a seductive tone.
"The Creator is quite impatient, wanting to get close so quickly."
She placed her hands on his chest and leaned into Takumi's embrace.
She wasn't overwhelmed by Takumi's 'perfect' aura. After all, Takumi's 'perfection' was only 'perfect' for the beings of the 'Teyvat Universe.' In other universes, Takumi had no right to define such things.
Takumi gently hugged Tokisaki Kurumi, feeling elated in his heart. There was nothing more satisfying than holding the character he loved as a student—the one who was now real and right in his arms.
"Alright then, let's begin."
The 'Ouroboros Ring' behind Takumi slowly began to rotate, and a bright 'star' appeared within it. This 'star' was a 'sephirot' of the 'Kabbalah Tree of Life.'
The 'sephirot' essentially served as a nail that anchored the structure of the universe, and concepts like 'time,' 'space,' and 'understanding' were its representational powers. Having obtained this 'sephirot,' Takumi was now able to use the river of time in the 'Earth-Moon System' that had given birth to the 'Kabbalah Seed.'
Takumi hugged Tokisaki Kurumi, and they disappeared into thin air.
At the same time, the fluctuations of spiritual power caused by Kurumi Tokisaki's new spiritual form had alarmed the two major organizations in Tiangong City.
On the Fraxinus airship, a fourteen-year-old girl with twin ponytails was directing the members of 'Ratatoskr' to search and locate the source of the 'spiritual signal.' The entire power room was busy.
"Commander, we have a report! The spiritual power fluctuation suddenly vanished!"
"What? It disappeared suddenly?"
"It seems that the spirit has returned to the spirit world."
"Alright, then we'll leave it."
Standing next to the twin-tailed girl was a silver-haired woman in her twenties, dressed in a military-like uniform, her face haggard. She opened her eyes wide in shock, her face filled with disbelief, and the pen in her hand fell to the ground.
How could this be? Kurumi's 'spiritual crystal' had disappeared? How could it have vanished? It was impossible!
Each 'spiritual crystal' was a fragment of her own 'spiritual crystal'—they were all part of her. There was no way Kurumi, who had received one of these crystals, could destroy it with her power. Moreover, the destruction of the 'spiritual crystal' meant that Tokisaki Kurumi, the one who had pained her so much, had been killed.
'Damn!' she thought.
It didn't matter if Kurumi had been killed, but if the 'spiritual crystal' was destroyed, her plan would go wrong.
The red-haired girl with twin ponytails looked at her, puzzled, and asked, "What's wrong, Reine?"
Murasame Reine snapped back to reality, rubbing her eyes. "It's nothing. I just feel sleepy again."
"Reine, your old problems haven't improved at all. How about I give you a few days off to rest properly?"
"No need, Commander. Even if I'm on holiday, I can't sleep."

Meanwhile, thirty years ago...
Eurasia, on the border between Yan State and Mongolia.
The sun was shining brightly, and the prairie stretched as far as the eye could see. Takumi and Tokisaki Kurumi appeared mid-air.
Kurumi looked at the changing timeline and then down at the ground. "Is this... the place where the great Eurasian air disaster occurred thirty years ago?"
According to the information she received, three magicians used elven magic at Leyline 813 to gather magical power from all over the earth to create the 'Origin Spirit' here. During the process, a spatial earthquake was triggered, killing over one billion people across Eurasia.
"Are we going to kill those three magicians to prevent the birth of the 'Origin Spirit,' or...?"
Tokisaki Kurumi glanced at the three figures in the distance who were working on their ritual. She wanted to rush over and kill them, but she held back and looked at Takumi instead.
He wouldn't let her do it. If the 'Origin Spirit' ceased to exist, then the 'Kabbalah Tree of Life' he sought wouldn't come into being either.
Takumi's golden pupils shone brightly. "Don't worry. I said I would save everyone. When the spatial earthquake breaks out, I will send all affected people into the future. This way, events can still unfold as they should, but the people who were supposed to die will be saved."
As soon as he finished speaking, the wind and clouds suddenly shifted. The clear sky began to swirl as a result of the tremendous spiritual energy, and the space started to warp due to the riot of spiritual power. Earthquakes spread across the Eurasian continent, and spiritual energy enveloped the space, compressing it until a dark sphere appeared on the grassland.
Tokisaki Kurumi's expression changed drastically. Takumi put his arm around her waist, raised his hand, and the 'Ouroboros Ring' behind him slowly rotated.
"Timeline alteration!"
In an instant, the pitch-black sphere expanded, like the Big Bang.
