放學時間,伸一再次來到學生會室的門口。他停在門口前,吞一下口水,不敢進去,因為門的後面,就是新的開始,同時意味未來他會牽涉在奇怪的事件中。

艾倫降落在主人的肩膀上,對他微笑。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAdjYpmZ8yYD
161Please respect copyright.PENANAR4w1xIUpRJ
「去吧,伸一。」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAHmU2D7RM60
161Please respect copyright.PENANAUJZlexXHIe
伸一深呼吸,打開門。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAWtCVrZd7fj
161Please respect copyright.PENANAIOLelJZlk0
「歡迎加入The Empire!」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAtQoI4OAS7b
161Please respect copyright.PENANAnHMJ5LtSOm
愉悅的氣氛充斥整個房間,跟伸一預想的有極大反差。伸一呆了,不懂反應。在講台上,他們都是嚴肅的,現在他們居然全都變成小孩子,在開派對。桌上海量的點心和零食,就是最佳證明。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAAeUvCLeria
161Please respect copyright.PENANAjwgt15Yppg
「來,先坐一下。」美娜將他拉到沙發前,讓他坐好。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAg19OiBWFBh
161Please respect copyright.PENANAZu34o3sZES
「要不要一包?」阿光的手疊在伸一的肩膀,遞上一包特大洋蔥片。伸一點頭,收下了。
161Please respect copyright.PENANABgZaar650W
161Please respect copyright.PENANA3m8jCP2OhG
「艾倫,過來這邊。零食已經為你準備好了。」美美和其他守護甜心也在好好招待新來的甜心。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAgBue2CgZZk
161Please respect copyright.PENANASWDJgu3Lx5
「嗚啊呀——許多食物啊!」艾倫盯著桌上的點心,垂涎三尺。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAen9C8cXB78
161Please respect copyright.PENANAtIMpYNmHMr
「那我們快點開動吧。」布魯斯已經伸手去抓杯子蛋糕,但路克一下手刀把他的貪玩之手斬開。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAHlw44U2QDN
161Please respect copyright.PENANAoP52k4H3uu
「請再等一下!」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAoVeL185M0f
161Please respect copyright.PENANAytCXavYgTd
「……為什麼會在派對?」伸一只能吐出這問題。
161Please respect copyright.PENANASSNLkrrOZR
161Please respect copyright.PENANAOSSvjsFLKS
「在歡迎你啊,」大輔道:「歡迎你成為The Empire的Pawn!這學年多多關照。」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAcAnqRkfKNm
161Please respect copyright.PENANAIXMSahZw0y
「多多關照!」其他人和守護甜心異口同聲。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAgcUpPCAr2p
161Please respect copyright.PENANAvykOb7Fq1V
「……嗯。」伸一在沒其他能給的反應之下,默默點頭了。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAELAYt80hVl
161Please respect copyright.PENANAiLsaiM3K34
六個人和六隻守護甜心坐下,開始點心派對。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAzmKyHdbgkX
161Please respect copyright.PENANA2fVEB1g5Sp
「很久沒試過這樣了,」翔太拿著一片曲奇餅,吃得津津有味:「工作一直都很多,都沒時間坐下輕鬆一下。」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAJKDChA0aL5
161Please respect copyright.PENANAqZuGKw8RBK
「那個……昨天那件事怎樣處理?」伸一問道。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAhfyTTE85gC
161Please respect copyright.PENANAn2CEDx89Ku
「先暫且別管,現在先享受當下!」阿光拍拍他的肩膀,叫他別擔心。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAYx7ou7Gk9P
161Please respect copyright.PENANAn2JhurkzRN
「我不客氣了。」
161Please respect copyright.PENANACfDwGdtKaw
161Please respect copyright.PENANAWsDrgA6XZL
「喂!我先看中這個的啊!」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAAAtc36FaAu
161Please respect copyright.PENANArjzUAA8Ydg
「這跟我無關!」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAyvWzrAyQ5d
161Please respect copyright.PENANAvUlIieJWQr
「啊——」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAR4Wt80aIhh
161Please respect copyright.PENANAACAksjpapF
「艾倫,要不要一點茶?」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAWRm7fgUKdB
161Please respect copyright.PENANAW76tXEhbQN
「好的。謝謝。」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAchZd4eYoLy
161Please respect copyright.PENANAaBmqyE9uHn
看著守護甜心們有說有笑,像是有生命的指頭娃娃在零食之間移動,伸一不禁會心微笑。這是艾倫誕生多年來,第一次近距離接觸其他守護甜心。以前縱然會碰到同類,但也不過於點頭、打招呼。艾倫這回的笑容,是他一生中見過最燦爛的。
161Please respect copyright.PENANALKFPxDrOtb
161Please respect copyright.PENANAo3te4g7CQj
事實上,伸一也覺得自己這回的笑容很燦爛。他一手抓起大量洋蔥片,一口吃下去,滋味無窮,比家中更好。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAmiWe8Q1W2d
大輔看著伸一:「Pawn,明天早上開始我會帶你認識我們的工作,知道嗎?」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAaS6MzP4DpX
161Please respect copyright.PENANAmWzFbVSQlW
「嗯!」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAhvBZSR4h4W
161Please respect copyright.PENANA07vNXX3YJq
「放心。這會跟阿光之前說好的一樣,我們不會要你做太多工作,不會為難你。」
161Please respect copyright.PENANA6JfgTg0zwe
161Please respect copyright.PENANANB7EAfEUuf
「多多指教了。」伸一微笑。

魔姬和雙胞胎兄弟再次在辨公室會見聖母。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAtXCAAp0puB
161Please respect copyright.PENANA3RL4wzryhO
「聖母好。」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAm9cezaH61e
161Please respect copyright.PENANAm6J4bQ4AKQ
房間陷入一片沉默,聖母仍然背對他們,讓陽光將她變成一團影子。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAchp0nkwrZF
161Please respect copyright.PENANAiP3qOOqErW
「……聖母?」京介首先發言。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAsD5Pi5sgTv
161Please respect copyright.PENANAk9v9wwdXrg
「京介,聽聞昨天你擅自出動了?而且你輸了。」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAsiXwOWWvu0
161Please respect copyright.PENANAxQaacNR0FD
面對聖母的質問,京介停頓幾秒。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAWgIAHOPsYq
161Please respect copyright.PENANABRVKWqjoIc
「聖母,這是為了收集更多心靈之蛋。請原諒我。」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAjypMRoYkbi
161Please respect copyright.PENANADrcrT6TsJK
聖母沉默不言,並單手提出一隻發出淺藍色螢光的蛋。蛋在掌心中,發出吸引眼球的光芒。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAoGl8H5cONq
161Please respect copyright.PENANAO7gMxWmhRn
「發動。」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAtN61DJFt5H
161Please respect copyright.PENANALD3KRAIaMp
「Lazer!」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAe7xiqstOV9
161Please respect copyright.PENANAeKH2ok9qfM
聖母細語後,蛋說出單字,並射出一道鐳射光。幸好京介反應快,踏步避開。鐳射打在背後的牆上,留下一個燒焦點。
161Please respect copyright.PENANARGXGqzQEsP
161Please respect copyright.PENANADyb9fKIYab
「真不愧是所有實驗品中的精英,閃得很快。」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAgDlipBSkfV
161Please respect copyright.PENANA6zF6XGTJN3
京介的腳軟了,坐在地上,手心不斷冒汗。總介馬上扶起他,看看他有沒有狀況。
161Please respect copyright.PENANA8gJVm1NtQU
161Please respect copyright.PENANAuf4GxQGvSE
「這次只是警告,下次不要了。」
161Please respect copyright.PENANA5y0z8ZBpIS
161Please respect copyright.PENANAxFkWb0KDEj
「……是的。」京介猛烈點頭,他臉色蒼白,受驚了。
「為了確定你有真心反省,這段時間你不准參加任何任務或訓練。聽到嗎?」
「……是。」
「聖母,難道這就是最近在研發的新型武器蛋?」魔姬問道。
「是的。我手上的雖然只是Alpha版,但威力不錯,我相當滿意。」
聖母轉轉手上的武器蛋,淺藍色的蛋殼在陽光下有寶石一般的光芒。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAMKdbaIkUVr
161Please respect copyright.PENANAEhLrW8O01M
「記住,Genesis是一體的,不准有個人主義。聽到嗎?」
161Please respect copyright.PENANApxnXk4S7C3
161Please respect copyright.PENANAPyRWhtlK06
「我們當然知道,聖母。請你放心。」總介回應。
161Please respect copyright.PENANArQLd6bVQKd
161Please respect copyright.PENANAGfJkqfVznw
「很好。」聖母十分滿意。

另一天的早上,伸一跟著學生會在校園內東奔西撲,學習學生會基本工作,之後課堂又開始上層次與小學差天共地的課程,好不容易才支持到放學。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAzbDSwUz9Se
161Please respect copyright.PENANAIuFimqOm78
「我……來……了……」伸一喘著氣,打開學生會房門。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAOJzdLP7UJL
161Please respect copyright.PENANA0IQ9OPCP2D
「伸一,今早辛苦了。」美娜繼續掛上公主式的笑容,而其餘人早已到齊了。
161Please respect copyright.PENANA9SF9XENTGi
161Please respect copyright.PENANAj7z6tdJci2
「嗯……」伸一疲倦地點頭,旁邊的艾倫只能苦笑。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAOaQBcW6Mnu
161Please respect copyright.PENANAhoYtTdrfi3
「不過現在不是休息的時間。來,快坐好。我們終於知道對手是誰了。」早乙女拍拍旁邊空置的沙發位,要伸一過來坐。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAnVPbH9ZbTR
161Please respect copyright.PENANAjmrkQAsgnf
「對手?」伸一有點不理解。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAClmbZcpJE1
161Please respect copyright.PENANAnXjIC3SN6K
「嗯,那群抽取他人心靈之蛋,將別人弄得奇奇怪怪的人。」阿光點頭。
161Please respect copyright.PENANATxnQ7fK8O1
161Please respect copyright.PENANAbwvfi0DnoR
伸一腦光一閃:「啊!我記得那些蛋上有一個六角星圖案,我記得它們代表的是……」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAY9VpxBEDly
161Please respect copyright.PENANAhtotONIKtH
「不用猜了,」大輔道:「是Genesis財團。」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAaJ1tYDPd87
161Please respect copyright.PENANA6T7Opc2cbx
他將一張角落印有六角星的文件放在玻璃桌中央。英文字Genesis呈斜體,清楚地寫在六角星旁邊。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAPaWU1Lu0HR
161Please respect copyright.PENANAcaCRXznd1g
「Genesis?聽說這財團的實力和Easter不分上下的啊!」翔太對於事件涉及Genesis財團感到意外。
161Please respect copyright.PENANA3tskh6dWM5
161Please respect copyright.PENANANNdiST5e6l
「Genesis財團的業務遍佈全球,包含多個範疇。超市、娛樂、房屋……你能說出來的,他們大概都有涉及當中。」早乙女道。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAsrPRO6qAAt
161Please respect copyright.PENANAjXBRYe4I0V
「包括零食嗎?」布魯斯問。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAUHeDqVWXel
161Please respect copyright.PENANA1uljkL6B74
「對。昨天的包裝杯子蛋糕,出產商就是Genesis。」凌兵回應。
161Please respect copyright.PENANA7vRT27eT5w
161Please respect copyright.PENANAOE4ahWKIOx
「噢!」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAqNp6MrcrGD
161Please respect copyright.PENANAfaTTMl67PC
「說起娛樂,他們最近好像在興建賭場和遊樂場,」阿光又說:「我記得它們分別叫Genesis Galaxy和Genesis Garden。他們是要對抗DreamEgg Land嗎?」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAEbJbPwnnOM
161Please respect copyright.PENANApkZdnvrsSg
「啊——我和翔太上星期到DreamEgg Land一遊,裡面的遊樂設施的確令人靈感大開。」小筆合上眼睛,回憶那時的樂趣。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAB6HS80harU
161Please respect copyright.PENANAXMRZF5Uant
「嗯!票價雖然貴了點,但值得去。」連主人也和議。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAnrFl89HPjL
161Please respect copyright.PENANAXVpZjAiRDa
「咳咳——我們可以不談零食或娛樂嗎?」
161Please respect copyright.PENANArLrp6Crz7f
161Please respect copyright.PENANA7JkoTZy1xD
早乙女只是提高一下聲量,就讓所有人和守護甜心都住口,回到正題去。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAxj9xIm08aA
161Please respect copyright.PENANAcnFwVqwoxt
「……剛剛說到,Genesis踏足的範圍非常廣闊,但我萬萬想不到現在他們竟然會碰守護蛋。」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAyL0psQTKLO
161Please respect copyright.PENANAbgrhL80ODl
「但是…….為什麼?為什麼他們會知道我們的存在?」路克問道。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAfnaHY3pYee
161Please respect copyright.PENANAccoINC9lp7
「那個叫魔姬的少女似乎也十分清楚我們的特性,但我們感覺不到她有守護甜心。」凌兵補充。
161Please respect copyright.PENANATYQUVSG8uq
161Please respect copyright.PENANARyHbRYeyFE
(魔姬……)伸一的腦海一直重複這二字咒語。
161Please respect copyright.PENANA69IUGitpXs
161Please respect copyright.PENANAHuSsq7RuCJ
「那真的很奇怪呢,他們的目的是什麼?」美美搖頭,近期種種的事令她腦袋爆炸。
161Please respect copyright.PENANA7hT1t84YQz
161Please respect copyright.PENANAfAw5jEETqs
「再談下去也沒有用。我們只能繼續留意他們的動靜,」大輔道:「Genesis先說到這裡為止。我們討論下一個議題,而本次議題,和伸一你有很大關係。」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAJYUrqXsMlX
161Please respect copyright.PENANAIaAwDpcnAW
「啊?」
161Please respect copyright.PENANA9uKx6hHqy2
161Please respect copyright.PENANAju4Ri8ihPR
「說白一點的話,就是你的項鍊。」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAnPufVaHa7a
161Please respect copyright.PENANAE8lq2W7DvX
「……!」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAUpeyqKFt7L
161Please respect copyright.PENANAHy9nMTi8HY
伸一低頭,伸手托起項鍊上的Hope Sphere。它在水晶燈的光芒閃出一點光輝,光並不刺眼,光度剛好令人舒服,如同掌上明珠,希望的水晶球。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAv1jJ1QmASh
161Please respect copyright.PENANA1Utsv7nmuU
「這個?他只是爺爺的遺物而已。」
161Please respect copyright.PENANASFCakqgeP5
161Please respect copyright.PENANAKQff8Zr6tx
「不過在上兩次的戰鬥,它發亮了,之後你能夠甜心變身,Story Writer的力量也因而穩定。我覺得不是巧合。」
161Please respect copyright.PENANA5FwQKaShIC
161Please respect copyright.PENANANwkeVCRczy
「嗯。那時候,我覺得我和小筆完全同步,能隨心所慾地使用力量。我是第一次有這種感覺。」翔太道。
161Please respect copyright.PENANA4p1asLhC44
161Please respect copyright.PENANAW4u917q58z
「真的嗎?」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAE3Qs4A1mU5
161Please respect copyright.PENANAuhoS5m8Jix
伸一再次看著Hope Sphere。裡面的反轉世界彷彿有另一層令人反轉的威力,寄託了爺爺的靈魂。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAGDvPCrxIns
161Please respect copyright.PENANA2MWS3FNIUl
「伸一,我們可以看看嗎?」大輔伸出手。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAdgKjzQvIKI
161Please respect copyright.PENANAzwG16xMKXX
「不。」伸一握緊它,退後一步。
161Please respect copyright.PENANAOK4AImjn31
161Please respect copyright.PENANADiaHsS7l2J
「我們不會做什麼,放心。」
161Please respect copyright.PENANA82v8GZV6Ab
161Please respect copyright.PENANARww0UN0Xzh
「不行。」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAIbDDjM9auu
161Please respect copyright.PENANApzexmc0CZC
「只是看一下。」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAkYoheUBrgT
161Please respect copyright.PENANAXvCHKzQdAd
「不行就是不行。」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAV1TBFvDNJq
161Please respect copyright.PENANAE3DqUlgove
「他不行是可以理解的,畢竟這是爺爺留給他的,十分貴重。」美娜希望大輔不要迫他。
161Please respect copyright.PENANA5URGDlLIEy
161Please respect copyright.PENANAx6ktcZL0Zk
「對啊!不要強迫人!」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAh5WTyegjqh
161Please respect copyright.PENANA9dy55gy1rL
「……說的也是,」大輔點頭:「它有名字嗎?」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAQIllajIEPS
161Please respect copyright.PENANAbwkBYDAP5y
「Hope Sphere。」
161Please respect copyright.PENANANvyPgwHGPo
161Please respect copyright.PENANAGRATgzmKxk
「Hope Sphere……」大輔重複默唸幾次:「既然不能除下去檢查,那希望你能盡量戴上它去戰鬥。多來幾次變身,說不定可以知道它是什麼。」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAYzANamNtAt
161Please respect copyright.PENANAK65lG4pq7H
「……好的。」
161Please respect copyright.PENANAnWyQiJqU17
161Please respect copyright.PENANAOnzaQo5SaB
伸一垂下Hope Sphere,Hope Sphere在燈光下閃出星光。
