Chapter 648 "Sakura's Fragment of Memories"

Fortunately, Sakura's brother, King Kinomoto Touya, and the priest Yukito arrived just in time. King Touya skillfully blocked all the masked men's attacks with his sword, and the urgent response of Priest Yukito followed.

Princess Sakura, in a comatose state, underwent a magical diagnosis. The result revealed that a part of Princess Sakura's soul and memory had inexplicably disappeared, and she was at risk of imminent death.

Given Syaoran's limited abilities to treat them, he resorted to activating magic to transport them to the all-powerful Dimension Witch. The hope was to find a way to save the ailing Princess Sakura.

Listening to Syaoran's narration, Jerry couldn't help but sink into contemplation, "It seems that things are not that simple!"

Clow Reed departed from the Magic Card World and went to the Clow Kingdom, where he became the king and fathered Momoya and Sakura. Sakura's father, Fujitaka, was originally in Tomoeda and became Syaoran's adoptive father.

Then, Sakura fell victim to an unknown enemy, and she, along with Syaoran, sought Yuuko's assistance, traveling to various worlds to collect memory feathers.

The intriguing aspect was that Ichihara Yuuko had long been aware of the impending arrival of Syaoran and others.

She frequently spoke of making amends for the mistakes she and Clow Reed had committed.

Jerry sensed that there must be a hidden secret involving Clow Reed, Yuuko, and the powerful voyeur.

Of course, he harbored no interest in delving into their secrets at the moment, as long as it didn't disrupt his seamless collection of feathers.

"What are you doing here? It's very dangerous. Run away. Get out of here." At that moment, a boy with small eyes wearing a junior high school uniform rushed forward, expressing concern for them.

Jerry turned to the junior high school student. "Who are you?"

"I'm Masayoshi Saito, you can call me Masayoshi. Judging by your attire, you must be foreigners, right?" replied the boy with small eyes.

Jerry paused for a moment, then smiled. "You're not wrong about that."

Considering the current architectural environment, it seemed to be a modern city. Syaoran, Fay, and Kurogane were dressed in a way that clearly didn't match modern clothing, resembling foreign attire.

In his black suit, Jerry also stood out with his brown hair and foreign appearance, clearly indicating he was not from the local area.

"Regardless, you need to get out of here quickly. There's going to be a fight soon. Oh no, those people are coming."

Masayoshi observed the growing crowd on both sides of the broken bridge and wasted no time in pulling them away.

Once they found refuge behind some abandoned cars in a corner, he emphasized, "Hide here for now; otherwise, you might get caught up, and someone could get hurt."

Jerry didn't resist; he could sense the genuine concern from the boy with small eyes.

As they concealed themselves behind the abandoned cars, they overheard people on both sides of the broken bridge above exchanging heated insults.

"What's going on?" Kurogane, who had hesitated to hide earlier, inquired.

Masayoshi explained in a hushed tone, "This is where two rival factions in the city vie for territory. They've been gathering here every day for the past few days, preparing for major clashes. You'd definitely get hurt if you stayed there for a while."

It turned out that Masayoshi had good intentions.

Upon spotting Jerry and the other foreigners in the middle of the broken bridge, he was concerned they might get accidentally injured and rushed over to warn them.

"Why are they fighting without weapons?" Kurogane raised his head, observing the groups on both sides of the broken bridge, noticing they had nothing—not even a stick.

"How do you fight? Of course, you have to use skill!" Masayoshi replied matter-of-factly.

Before Kurogane could inquire about what was happening, Fay, who was standing next to Syaoran, suddenly removed the Syaoran robe and feigned surprise.

"Hey, Syaoran, there seems to be a feather stuck to your back." Fay prompted as he took the feather of his robe.

"This is a memory fragment of Princess Sakura!" Syaoran exclaimed, looking at the feather in Fay's hand with genuine surprise.

Having witnessed Princess Sakura's memory feather entering the unknown space, he recognized it immediately.

Moreover, Sakura's memory feathers are unlike ordinary ones. They boast unique patterns in their appearance, and when you come close, you can sense the same aura as Sakura's.

"Maybe you accidentally acquired it while traveling through time and space. You're so lucky!"

Fay extended his hand and offered the memory feather to Syaoran.

Syaoran was about to reach out to catch it, but the feather unexpectedly flew out of Fay's hand and landed in Jerry's hand.

As it turned out, Jerry had just cast a flying spell, guiding the feather into his hand.

"Syaoran, can you let me take a look at it for a moment? Don't worry; I'll return it to you right away."

"That's fine, but I hope you can do it quickly. Princess Sakura needs these feathers to regain her health."

Syaoran hesitated briefly, but recalling that Jerry not only provided them with the flying carpet but also assisted in defeating their eavesdropping enemies and erasing the tracking marks, he finally nodded.

Jerry held the feather, closed his eyes, and concentrated most of his attention on the delicate plume in his hand.

This memory feather wasn't actually attached to the Syaoran; Fay simply took it out of his pocket and pretended to remove it from the Syaoran clothing.

Although these subtle maneuvers might deceive others, they certainly couldn't escape Jerry's notice.

Initially, Jerry had no intention of questioning these actions. However, upon the feather's appearance, he sensed not only its positive energy but also the imprint of numerous laws.

The regulations embedded in this pivotal feather clearly differed from the rules of the current world he perceived. They likely represented the laws of another world, perhaps the world where Fay resides.

These laws were imprinted in the feathers containing Sakura's memories and soul. By obtaining the feathers, Jerry could effortlessly assimilate the imprinted rules.

How could he pass up such an advantageous opportunity?

Understanding these laws independently could potentially consume nearly a month, but by absorbing the rules imprinted in the Feather, Jerry could achieve comprehension in mere minutes.

Given his careful observation, Jerry deduced that Sakura's recovery hinged on recycling the memory and soul fragments within the feathers.

Keeping these laws intact seemed superfluous, making direct absorption a more efficient option.

Jerry speculated that the adversary scattered Sakura's feathers across worlds to utilize them to absorb the laws and power unique to each realm.

As Jerry concentrated on absorbing the rules within the memory feather, a resounding "Boom!" signaled the initiation of a physical altercation between the two opposing factions outside. Only then did everyone grasp the significance of Masayoshi's seemingly casual warning.
