Philip's nose spurted blood like how his nose spurted from [Bullet Time] pushing itself to the limits. His sinus was destroyed once again and his blood splattered on the kotatsu and his lap
"Philip?!"
Tenshi was surprised and became worried. She immediately reached her left hand, slid it on his right cheek, and tried to pull his head towards her. Philip's eyes were glowing with bright golden color
Sheena furrowed her eyebrows and became worried at Philip. She reached towards him, but she noticed that her hand is white in color and faintly glowing in green color
She inspected more of her hands and then her arms. She then touched her face and she confirmed that she's currently transformed
Nothing changed too much on her body, except that he entire body is white in color. The usual four circle symbols appeared on her forehead and her eyes are green with eight parts that looked mechanical or a gear. It also almost look like an emerald or green stained glass
Philip refused to turn his head towards Tenshi since his job is not yet over
'Hold on Tenshi...'
Tenshi halted her action and just caressed his cheek to make him feel better
'...'
Philip raised his left hand and snapped his fingers
*Snap*
An audible sound reverberated throughout Sheena's room and Philip changed her fate in the instant
At that moment also, he turned his hand and aimed his palm at Sheena
「 Fate Control: Hand Control 」
Philip used the second level of ⟨⟨ Fate Control ⟩⟩ just to make sure because he's dealing with an essence of a True Goddess
「 What do you want to happen? 」
'Allow Sheena to control her power entirely... Activate the supposed Peaceblender in her and ignite the Peacesustainer and Peacebooster Essences in her!'
「 Confirmed... 」
'Also... Pull the Mobiüs Octingenity off her!'
「 Ah!! 」
"Ah?"
Philip pulled his arm backwards and Sheena's body puffed upward. She drifted backwards and floated upwards to avoid tipping the kotatsu over. Her arms unfolded sideways and her chest puffed outwards
The walls of the Japanese room began to light up and all objects and windows were covered in a film of white-green light, like feathers
Faint white-gold aura and energy emerged from Philip's hand and went towards Sheena's chest. Orbits of white and gold energy started to expand around her chest, like the orbits of an atom. The room shook violently and energy bursted forth
It was then that an object started to come out directly from Sheena's chest. The usual surface of the Mobiüs Octingenity was shown, but it's suddenly being rejected by the universe
The surface of the Mobiüs Octingenity was shrouded in complete darkness. The atmosphere in the room suddenly dropped and gravity became chaotic. Either the gravity increased drastically, reversed towards the singularity, or became zero gravity
Philip's nose spurted out blood once again, but at this point, he forced himself to resist the pain as he stood up
On the other hand, Tenshi was stunned as she looked at the singularity. She lost her grip on Philip's hand and lost consciousness. She fell to the left, but before she hit the floor, Amatsuka emerged and transformed into her Void Angel form
She narrowed her eyes at Philip and looked at the Mobiüs Octingenity. She then looked down and her eyes trembled. She clutched her head and began to shake in place
Philip slowly walked towards the stationary singularity of the Mobiüs Octingenity until his hand is a few inches away
'Emily! How did we keep the Mobiüs Trinity?!'
「 Just touch it and I'll throw it in the World of Absolute Nothingess 」
'Are you sure?'
「 Yes, there's no other choice 」
'Alright!'
Philip reached forward and touched the singularity until he grabbed it. The moment he grabbed it with his entire hand, the Mobiüs Octingenity disappeared
The chaos inside Sheena's room dissipated, but the film of light stayed and Sheena remained floatint
'PFFFF-- AAAGGGHHH!'
Philip screamed in his mind because his right hand was obliterated and rendered into nothingness the moment he touched the singularity
He pulled his right arm and held his forearm with his left arm. The Pureblood and Soulblood Marbles, [Imagination Shard], and [Love Shard] manifested and flew around where his right hand is supposed to be
Blood began to wriggle from his stump and white lines, resembling a plant, grew from the stump. The skin around his forearm formed a sheet of [Regenerative Ivory] with small spikes as it's reacting from the pain
The white plant grew leaves and formed the outline of his hand. The outline began to glow in white color and the blood started to wrap around the outline. Faint blue light also illuminated from the small spaces of the white outline and blood fibers
"Ggghhh--!"
Philip felt a stinging pain as his blood vessels, ligaments, and nerves were being reconstructed, as well as regeneration of the Spirit Fibers and Mana Spots on each joints
"Aaa... Aaaaaggghhh!!!"
Philip slowly raised his right arm upwards and forcefully tried to regain the feeling of his right hand. He also used [Pain Conversion] to amplify the resistance and direct all his energy towards his hand
In just a few seconds, he slowly regained the feeling of his right hand and tried to forcefully clench it. As he was clenching his imaginary right hand, the white ivory, blood fibers, and mana components began to fuse
「 The Only Blood That Can Cure And Heal 」
His hand shone with green light and his skin started to get reconstructed. It was like time is being reversed as his hand is turning back to normal
Eventually, his right hand was replaced and reconstructed as he clenched it tightly in the air. Though, the [Regenerative Ivory] that grew around his arm and crawled into his hand stayed as it will keep healing it for now, like restoring all of his sense of touch and how everything felt
It's basically allowing the nerves to remember the feeling of touch of everything without him requiring to touch everything again. This is another feature of the [Regenerative Ivory]
Though, the pain still lingers around his hand, it's now bearable. His fingers just twitch sometimes and he already has forgotten about how painful it was with [Pain Denial]
"Haaah..."
Philip looked to his left, on the floor, and saw Amatsuka looking at him. She cancelled her transformation and Tenshi returned
"Ugh..."
Temshi clutched her head while her eyes are closed. Philip kneeled down and tended to Tenshi
"Are you alright?"
"Yes, I was just surprised... What was that?"
"I'll tell you later... I'll finish this first"
"Okay..."
Philip stood back up and approached Sheena. He raised his left hand and placed it in front of her in a snapping gesture
"Fuuuuu~"
Philip took a deep breath before he snapped his fingers
*Snap*
An audible sound reverberated throughout Sheena's room as the film of white-green light was blasted and torn apart, including Sheena's transformation
She fell back on his butt and everything went back to normal. The Pureblood and Soulblood Marbles, [Imagination Shard], and [Love Shard] hid behind Philip's back and disappeared from reality respectively
"Ow!"
Sheena exclaimed as she fell and scratched her butt with her right hand
"What happened?"
Sheena asked
"I have changed your fate..."
"What? How?? What did you do?"
"I'll tell you your true identity, your power, and your true potential... We will also discuss you desire in this point onwards"
"..."
~~~
"I had that kind of power?!"
Philip practically told everything to Sheena, from the Peaceforce, the destruction of the Peaceforce, the True Goddess of Technology, and her Peacesustainer and Peacebooster Essences inside her. He held the information about the Mobiüs Octingenity for now. Though, he didn't explain to her the existence of the True Deities outside of the universe
Sheena is under the assumption that the True Goddess of Technology is a divine being that's being worshipped in another world, like Sai
"Then, who really am I? Am I someone else that was just reborn?! Am I not me?"
An existential crisis
"No, you are Sheena Azuma, the fifth daughter of the Azuma Assassins Clan..."
"Wait, how did you--?!!"
"You are who you are. In fact, you inherited the power of the True Goddess of Technology and you are not her in any way shape or form. You can be the new True Goddess of Technology like how I became the new God of Darkness when I killed him and took his soul"
"Ah, then... I am still me?"
"Sheena, you can believe me if I say that... Well, you are Sheena. I've known you for who you are when we first met and I gotta say... You are you"
Tenshi spoke and tried to assure Sheena
"But how would you know if you haven't met that True Goddess?! You might as well be talking to her rather me?!"
"Well, same goes for you... How would you know when you don't know who or what that True Goddess is?"
"..."
"The fact that you're capable of thinking that means that you are aware. Your mind and body follows what you think, rather than something else"
It was Philip's time to reassure Sheena and he felt that it was hard to assure people like this, especially when it comes to existential crisis
He then remembered the time when he is basically the one who assures people in his junior and senior high school days. Him assuring everyone was enough for them to thrive and to not worry about anything of their anxieties and overthinking
It has been several years since he last did it and he is currently feeling pressured because he's afraid that he might say something wrong
"Are you guys sure that that is the case?"
Sheena needed one more assurance
"Yes, definitely!"
Tenshi gave a short but enough answer
"Definitely. If you think that you are not what you are? Tell me your worries and I will make sure you are still what you are"
Philip said more than what he needed
"How?"
The consequences of saying too much deserves proof
"..."
"..."
Philip looked at Tenshi and she looked back
'Should I do it?'
'I have no problems with it. The question is, how are you going to do it'
'I got this...'
Tenshi smiled and allowed the next sequence of event to play out
"With this..."
Philip reached towards Sheena and grabbed her left hand with his right hand. He held it in such a way that the back of her palm is facing upwards
"Eh?"
Sheena was surprised that her left hand was getting gently pulled. She was distracted enough that she didn't even thought of pulling it back and just let it happen
Philip leaned forward and lowered his head until his lips touched the back of her palm
"!!!--"
In this moment, Sheena pulled her left hand back and held it with her right hand. An electric current flowed from her hand, towards her body, and towards her brain
Her cheeks became red and her mouth turned zigzags. Her eyes are also trembling in excitement and confusion as cold sweat formed on her forehead
"Currently, you are Sheena... If you forget that feeling, then you are not Sheena anymore. If you become confused or lost, I will keep assuring you that you are you"
"..."
"..."
Without anyone knowing, the [Love Shard] flung itself into the air and started spinning while emitting a faint glow of pink light
"..."
Tenshi kept observing Sheena like she was teasing her. She was resisting herself from smiling and waited for her reaction
"I-I understand... I-if you say so..."
Sheena slightly calmed dowj and relaxed her body. Her eyesight trailed off to the side while her cheeks are flushed. She slowly moved her hands and gestured her left hand, while still being held by her right hand, to swipe her left side bangs and hide it behind her ears
"..."
"...!"
The way Sheena did this action surprised both Philip and Tenshi. Philip was entranced by her natural beauty and Tenshi was impressed that Sheena was able to bring her cuteness out this way
"So, about my power and ability..."
Sheena was prepared to learn her true potential and power. She felt as if she can do anything now that she has been assured
Perhaps the only reason that Sheena was convinced through assurance that easily is because of the influence of the [Love Shard] or Philip's innate effect of his positive traits
Nevertheless, this complicated problem was solved this easily and it could ahve considered trivial. Such terrifyingly mysterious trait and power Philip has
