Chapter 226: The Three Join Forces to Resolve the Crisis
Although Bonnie had deduced the reasons behind Jeremy's current dire state, she was unable to find a solution.
After all, neither Bonnie nor Ritchie had reached the level necessary for awakening. Aside from Jeremy, only Kean had successfully undergone the awakening process.
Bonnie and the others certainly could not rely on Kean to help Jeremy resolve his issues.
"What exactly should we do now? We have no information regarding anything related to awakening." Ritchie asked Bonnie directly and without preamble.
Bonnie nodded and, after a brief moment of contemplation, responded, "I truly don't possess a viable solution. I will inform my father and Uncle Howard about the situation as soon as possible.
They should be able to gather more information. Until they find some leads on how to address the troubles Jeremy is facing, our only responsibility is to take care of him."
After articulating her thoughts, Bonnie walked directly in front of Jeremy.
Although Jeremy still had not remembered Bonnie, at the very least, he no longer regarded her with as much suspicion.
"We currently have no means to find a way to help you with the difficulties you are encountering.
However, we can ensure your safety."
At this point, Bonnie turned to glance in Ritchie's direction.
"You do remember Ritchie, so you should understand that he would never intentionally harm you." Bonnie stated earnestly to Jeremy.
Jeremy looked at Ritchie and nodded, acknowledging Bonnie's words.
"In that case, let him take you back to your home."
After Bonnie finished speaking, she immediately called Claire and Emma away.
At the same time, the personnel from the Emergency Response Bureau, who had accompanied Bonnie, also followed her as they departed.
They had just overheard the conversation between Bonnie, Ritchie, and Jeremy.
Once everyone had left, Ritchie took Jeremy back to his home.
"This is your house. Do you really not recognize the place where you live?"
Ritchie inquired as he brought Jeremy to the front door of his residence.
Jeremy hesitated slightly before shaking his head.
"I have no memories of this place. It seems that this location is not particularly significant to me."
Jeremy slowly remarked as he assessed the overall condition of his home.
Ritchie nodded, "This place truly isn't particularly important to you. However, regardless, you must remain here for the time being to ensure your safety."
After saying this, Ritchie pushed open the door to the room.
He walked directly into the living room of Jeremy's home, while Jeremy slowly followed behind Ritchie.
As he progressed, Jeremy took in the decor of the room with keen interest.
He couldn't help but admit that the arrangement of the room was indeed quite satisfying to him.
He had now fully come to believe that this room truly was his home.
"It certainly appears to be my home. The decor in this room is exactly what I envision as the most fitting arrangement."
Jeremy remarked as he reached the doorway of his bedroom and glanced at the decorations within.
A slight smile crept onto Ritchie's face.
"It seems your memories are returning in greater numbers, before long, you should be able to return to your normal self."
Jeremy sighed, "Let's hope that's the case."
After confirming that the building he was in was indeed his home, Jeremy finally felt a sense of relief wash over him.
He chose to retreat to his bedroom to rest.
As Jeremy lay on his bed, he suddenly sensed something within his nightstand emitting a peculiar energy.
He opened the nightstand and discovered a gemstone radiating a multitude of colors.
Jeremy instinctively reached out towards the gemstone, and the moment his hand made contact, he was transported to the realm of the class change goddess, Janna.
At that moment, Jeremy was filled with panic, the surrounding environment was entirely unfamiliar to him.
Moreover, he had forgotten all memories related to the class change goddess Janna.
Seeing Jeremy's alarmed and wary expression, Janna couldn't help but sigh, "We may have somewhat underestimated the architects of the apocalypse game."
Janna's voice captured Jeremy's attention.
"Who are you? Why am I here? Did you bring me here on purpose?!" Jeremy questioned, observing Janna warily and quickly demanding answers.
"It wasn't I who brought you here. You find yourself in this place because of him."
Janna replied with a smile, pointing to Jeremy's side and slightly behind him.
In that instant, Jeremy realized there was someone behind him, prompting him to leap away.
Behind Jeremy, the puppet from the "World" stood, its gaze coldly scrutinizing both Jeremy and the class change goddess Janna.
"Do not continue wasting time!" The puppet from the "World" exclaimed. "Jeremy's current condition is exceedingly perilous. We must ensure he swiftly sheds the negative effects of the King of Time and Space talent!"
The "World" expressed a slight dissatisfaction with the previous actions of the class change goddess, Janna.
From their perspective, time was of the essence, and they needed to focus all their energies on resolving Jeremy's predicament without delay.
Janna's expression turned somewhat irate as she retorted, "I am not wasting time at all! Moreover, even if we act immediately, Jeremy will not cooperate with us."
After delivering this statement, Janna once again turned her gaze toward Jeremy.
Although Janna wore a smile, Jeremy remained on high alert, not letting his guard down for even a moment.
As he attentively listened to the conversation between Janna and the "World." he simultaneously contemplated what actions he should take next.
Before Jeremy could even begin to consider what actions he should take next, the puppet from the "World" suddenly appeared directly in front of him.
"Rest assured, we are your allies, not your enemies!"
After calmly uttering these words, the puppet extended its left hand and gently tapped Jeremy's forehead with its index finger.
In that instant, Jeremy felt his consciousness abruptly dissipate.
He plunged into a state of utter confusion and helplessness.
From Jeremy's perspective, it felt as though he was floating in midair, and all his memories seemed to vanish in that fleeting moment.
However, from the perspectives of the class change goddess Janna and the "World." Jeremy transformed into a dazzling orb of multicolored light. All of Jeremy's memories resided within that radiant sphere of vibrant colors.
The reason Jeremy lost a portion of his memories was that certain fragments within the multicolored orb were affected by the King of Time and Space talent, becoming lost in the unknown realms of time and space.
What the "World" needed to do now was to retrieve all the memories that had been lost in those uncharted dimensions.
The "World" continuously sought to recover the memories that Jeremy had lost.
Meanwhile, the class change goddess Janna collaborated with the efforts of the "World."
Janna needed to ensure that the apocalypse's plans did not cast their gaze upon this unfolding situation during the actions of the "World."
As the "World" worked, Jeremy's memories began to restore rapidly.
However, it became increasingly clear that the combined efforts of the "World" and the class change goddess Janna alone would not suffice to resolve the troubles that Jeremy faced.
Jeremy also had to rely on his own willpower to break free from the state of confusion.
In the moment when the "World" fully recovered the memories Jeremy had lost, the multicolored orb that represented him suddenly emitted a dazzling burst of light.
In the face of this blinding luminosity, the puppet from the "World" did not flinch or seek to evade it.
It simply stated, "From this point forward, it will be solely dependent on Jeremy's own efforts. The assistance we can provide him is limited to this."
The expression on the class change goddess Janna's face revealed a hint of concern, as she feared that Jeremy might not be able to rely on his willpower to escape from his state of disorientation.
The "World" and the class change goddess Janna did not wait for too long.
The radiant glow emitted by the multicolored orb began to diminish swiftly.
As the radiant glow diminished, the multicolored orb gradually coalesced into a humanoid form, which was none other than Jeremy himself.
Jeremy successfully relied on his own willpower to escape the state of confusion, gathering all his memories back into the recesses of his mind.
It did not take long for Jeremy's form to stabilize completely.
Suddenly, Jeremy opened his eyes wide.
Upon seeing the "World" and the class change goddess Janna, Jeremy spoke in a weak tone, "I am immensely grateful for your assistance! Without your help, I might have become utterly lost in the turbulent currents of time and space."
After recalling all his memories, Jeremy understood the reason behind his memory loss.
Following the acquisition of the King of Time and Space talent, he had failed to stabilize his condition promptly. In his unstable state, he activated the King of Time and Space talent, which caused a portion of his powers to become ensnared in the chaotic flow of time and space.
Due to his inherently unstable state, he lost not only power but also a portion of his memories as they slipped away.
Had it not been for the timely intervention of the "World" and the class change goddess Janna, Jeremy would likely have completely lost that segment of his memories.
Upon hearing Jeremy's words, the "World" merely replied with a calm demeanor, "It takes the combined efforts of the three of us to resolve this crisis, and naturally, your contribution is part of that equation."
