The self-cultivation of the passer-by hero

Ryujin, the god of Gensokyo.

Wu Ye always feels that he has a wonderful fate with these two characters recently, and he seems to have pretended to be him a few days ago.

Thinking of this, Wu Ye's eyes were a little surprised. From Yakumo Zi's words, he seemed to hear something different from the legend.

"You are the third."

Yakumo Zi smiled wanly, even though there was no smile in her eyes at all.

"The third one?" Wu Ye frowned, he didn't understand what Yakumo Zi was implying, but fortunately, this time the other party didn't intend to play tricks.

"The ability to manipulate realms, Takeya, you are the third one."

"Boundary." Wu Ye was stunned, recalling what Yakumo Zi said earlier, he suddenly realized: "Could it be?!"

"That's right," Yakumo Purple's lips raised a dangerous smile: "As far as we know of existence, you are the third one, and besides ourselves, the other one is -"

"Dragon God?" Takeya tried to guess, and Yakumo Zi's calm expression proved this shocking fact.

"To be honest, now that I think about it, I feel that all of this is surprisingly similar. You, Takeya, who is obviously just pretending to be the Dragon God, are actually growing in his direction."

The indifference in Yakumo Purple's eyes made Takeya feel cold, but the other party quickly waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, we know what your realm power is, Takeya, so we will never be bored enough to doubt you. of."

"." Wu also wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, but subconsciously became nervous, the reason even he didn't know.

"We remember that time, probably more than a thousand years ago. Gensokyo had not yet been established, and the conflict between humans and monsters had been placed in the forefront of history."

Yakumo Murasaki showed a look of reminiscing. Even though the words of revenge she talked about and the hatred in her eyes didn't seem to be fake, when she talked about the past, her already despairing heart would still be unconsciously reminded of those memories. Slightly sweet.

"One day, as if he appeared suddenly, he—the dragon god appeared in our world."

"When we were still confused about our future dreams, his appearance was the beginning of our change."

"Gensokyo—a world where no one will cry, and everyone can be happy. He was the one who first proposed this plan."

"While we were still worried about the coming war, he came up with a plan that was so perfect that it was almost impeccable, as expertly as if he had done the same thing before."

"We once doubted him because his appearance was so unreasonable. His appearance solved all difficulties. It was almost as if he appeared deliberately to help us build Fantasyland."

"However, our friends all choose to believe him. We don't know the reason, but we also have an indescribable feeling of familiarity with him, which can be said to be a feeling of closeness."

"Thinking about it now, it should be because we both have the same abilities as him, which made us have such a ridiculous illusion."

"He is obviously a sneaky villain who wears a mask and even hides his true appearance. He can actually make us all choose to trust him at the same time. I have to say that this is also an unexplainable question."

"But in any case, his presence made our plan more smooth."

"Monsters, humans, everyone is being manipulated by us without knowing it. We use war as a bargaining chip and victory or defeat as the price. Little by little, we are moving towards a better future where our dreams come true."

"The smooth and pleasant cooperation made our vigilance almost completely disappear. Until that day, we almost regarded him as a friend. Really, just a little bit."

"So, we absolutely cannot forgive Dragon God, that despicable person who betrayed us and deceived us. Only his death can eliminate this resentment."

The waves on the bright surface are not terrible, but the undercurrent hidden deep below is the biggest murderous opportunity.

Yakumo Purple's self-cultivation has always been very good, so to be able to make her tremble uncontrollably when she speaks is definitely not simple compared to her hatred for the Dragon God.

Well, the vengeance she spoke of—

"There are two reasons to protect Gensokyo," Yakumo Murasaki raised a finger lightly and said: "First, this place means something extraordinary to us, so we must protect it."

"And the second—"

The moment the resentment that had been suppressed for a long time broke out, Wu Ye was enveloped in a sense of suffocation as if his whole body had sunk into the bottom of a cold lake.

Yakumo Zi said in a mockingly sharp voice: "Isn't it very interesting to take revenge on him with the masterpiece he has worked so hard to complete?"

"."

To be honest, it's not that Takeya couldn't understand Yakumo Zi's thoughts, but it was more of a lament.

"Gensokyo is a very common existence. All the monsters, humans, and even gods in it, we are sure to unify them."

That is the self-confidence of a monster sage, Yakumo Zi will never do things that are not sure, and naturally she will not aim at nothing.

"This Gensokyo is the fortress against that guy. All the power here is prepared for the war that will come in the future."

"Is he very strong?" Wu Ye suddenly asked: "Dragon God, is he very powerful?"

Speaking of this, Yakumo Zi was silent for a while, and then said: "Very strong."

She said in a tone that seemed unwilling but vaguely disdainful: "Dragon God is the strongest existence we have ever seen. If we rely on ourselves alone, I am afraid that even the conditions for fighting will not be established."

"."

Takeru didn't know how strong the Dragon God was, but he knew how terrifying Yakumo Murasaki was. Even the majestic monsters and sages were so easily placed behind him. How strong would the legendary Dragon God be?

The reason for establishing Gensokyo is Yakumo Zi's dream.

The reason for protecting Gensokyo is Yakumo Zi's revenge for the present.

Although he knew that what he said might be nonsense, Takeya still spoke——

"Then Murasaki, Hakurei Miko too"

"We sacrificed everything and lost everything to reach this point," Yakumo Purple pointed at her heart and said, "I can't feel anything here anymore. If you want to be resentful, just feel free to resent it. We’re done.”

"This is so unfair. Why should they, who have done nothing wrong, risk their lives for your revenge?"

"Youkai have always been selfish from the beginning, Takeya, haven't you understood this yet?"

"I don't want to talk empty talk about virtues or anything like that with you, but it doesn't matter if it's just Reimu, or even if it's just one person, I want it too!"

"Look at the reality clearly, Takeya. In this cruel and miserable world, even if you hold on to hope tightly and don't let go for a moment, you will eventually wake up and find that it was just an absurd dream."

"Our reason is selfish, so in comparison, Jing's idea may be more in line with your values. After all, Reimu is also a special existence to you. It is precisely because of this that we chose to tell you everything."

Yakumo Zi looked at Takeya quietly, and then slowly stretched out her hand: "We like you, Takeya, so please become friends with me."

"Zi? What are you talking about? We are not"

"No, Wu Ye, you don't understand what I mean."

Yakumo Zi shook her head: "The choice between working hard for extravagant hopes that can never be realized, or seeing the reality clearly and working hard to prevent the tragedy from happening again, has a more important meaning."

"I don't understand"

"Then let's put it another way."

Yakumo Purple slowly held Takeya's hand: "Become a monster, Takeya."
