The self-cultivation of the passer-by hero

From the very beginning, Takeya had a question in his mind, but he never had the chance to ask it. That was why Yuuko and Yaoji were able to come to Kyoto so easily in the first place, considering that she originally lived in the north.

Also, when Yuuko misunderstood that she was a monster, her first reaction was not worry but confusion.

But if the monster sage Yakumo Murasaki and Yuko were friends, then everything would be easily explained.

Although Youji has hidden his identity as a monster, with his current strength, he is definitely not enough to protect Yuuko alone from the monster territory safely. Unless someone is secretly helping.

And that is Yakumo Murasaki. With the help of this monster sage, let alone leaving the north safely, there will be no danger even if she lives in the north without any danger.

Therefore, it is not surprising that when they first met, Yuko brought out the Youkai Sage's order to "stay away from Kyoto", because it was not a warning, but a hint.

"However, this is still a big joke. Saigon Yuko, the daughter of humanity's hope, is actually childhood sweethearts with the leader of the monster alliance, the monster sage Yakumo Murasaki." Takeya sighed, wanting to laugh but unable to do so.

"Hey." Like a child whose prank had been exposed, Yuko stuck out her tongue in embarrassment.

Looking at Yuko's heartless smile, and thinking about his righteous look just now, Wu Ya felt ashamed. He deliberately said: "Hey, it's a shame that you can still laugh. I'm going to fight with my friend soon." Don't you feel sad when you meet each other?"

"Swords facing each other? Why? I wouldn't do that kind of thing."

"Have you forgotten? You are the daughter of Master Xixing. Do you still want to stay out of it?"

"It's not that I stay out of the matter, but there is no need to fight," Yuuko stared directly at Takeya with bright eyes and said, "Didn't you just say, Takeya, how to let everyone live in peace."

".Are you serious?"

Takeru was not joking, but if he said such words, it would be a fool's dream, but if it were Yuko who said such words, it would be a conspiracy.

emmmmmmm Isn’t it a bit too much to say these two?

But we can't blame Takeya for being such a dissatisfied person. The highest spiritual leader of mankind and the highest power leader of monsters are actually childhood sweethearts. This premise alone is enough to surprise people.

If the person who heard Yuuko say this today was not Takeya, but someone else, then what he would do next would be to cry three times for the Master of the West and not rest in peace, then kill Yuuko and then commit suicide.

Human beings in this era have a black-and-white dualism when it comes to monsters, leaving no room for negotiation. Even a sober person like Seimei is only calmly hostile to monsters and would never think of living in peace with them.

Speaking of which, Yuko is probably the weird one. She has lived with monsters since she was a child, and her values ​​​​are already different from those of ordinary humans.

But what she said next really surprised Takeya a little.

"It's not just me, Zi Zi also has the same idea as me."

It's really not surprising, but the more unbelievable part is still behind, I just heard Yuko continue to say: "As for Murasaki, although she looks very cold, she is actually very kind-hearted, although her personality is a bit bad. , but she is very gentle when she cares about people. She is beautiful and knows how to take care of people. If anyone marries her, he will definitely-"

"Life is worse than death."

"Really! Takeya, what are you talking about!"

"Haha, it's okay. It was just me talking to myself. Don't worry about it."

Can the perception gap between people be so big? Even when Takeya was young and ignorant, he would never apply words like kindness and gentleness to Yakumo Murasaki. As for beauty——

The relationship between a monster's appearance and age is originally very ambiguous, so I won't discuss this point. Anyway, she will still look the same in a thousand years.

At this moment, in a certain city in the north.

"Ah-choo! A-choo! Ah-choo!"

"Hey, hey, what's going on? You guys, you must have a cold, right? It's obviously a big monster."

"We don't know. I suddenly feel like sneezing. Is it some kind of new curse?"

"Hahaha - such an inconspicuous curse, so weak."

In the huge castle tower, there were only the two of them enjoying the food and wine originally used for worship. Although one of the blond girls had an appearance very similar to that of a human, her purple pupils had a faint glow. Inhuman ominous.

The other one looked like a girl no more than ten years old, but she had a pair of huge horns on her head.

This is the largest city in the north, and it has long been in the hands of monsters. Being able to drink and chat here, their identities are self-evident.

One of them is the leader of the monster alliance, the monster sage Yakumo Murasaki, and the other is her biggest supporter, the ghost king Shuten Doji of the ghost clan.

Of course, she usually would not call someone by such a formal name. Few people knew that Shuten Doji also had the name Ibuki Suika.

Cuixiang held a wine gourd in one hand and poured wine into her bowl. Her half-drunk eyes showed no depth: "There is news from the Tengu. It seems that there was a little accident."

"A small accident?" Yakumo Purple snorted and said, "In other words, is there finally any movement among humans? It's an expected thing."

"No, it's a little different from what we expected. Wenwen was defeated."

"Wenwen? Who is that?"

"I'm telling you, you should at least remember all the names of your companions, right?" Suixiang said helplessly: "Shemei Maruwen, the Great Tengu's capable subordinate."

After listening, Yakumo Murasaki tried hard to recall, and then found the other party's appearance from the corner of her memory: "It's her, we remembered it. We didn't remember the little crow that followed the big tengu in the last meeting. If I’m wrong, she’s also a big monster, right?”

"That's right."

Yakumo Purple raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "Interesting, have you repelled all the big monsters? There are also quite capable guys among humans."

Hearing the contempt in Yakumo Purple's tone, Suixiang had to add: "I'm afraid it's more than just interesting. Wenwen was not only defeated, but also caught by them."

"Oh? So does that mean she's dead?" Yakumo Murasaki showed a look of disgust: "It's really troublesome. Then the big tengu guy will come to blabber in our ears again, right?"

"Don't worry, the situation is not that bad. At least he is back."

Suixiang picked up the wine bowl and looked at the ripples in it until they calmed down: "Wenwen brought back two pieces of news. One of them is that there is an Onmyoji among humans who needs special attention. His name is Abe Seimei."

"The Onmyoji are indeed a group of annoying existences. It's a pity that things are different now. They will definitely die miserably this time."

"That's right." Suixiang raised her glass to Yakumo Purple and showed a knowing smile.

Once upon a time, onmyojis were the biggest threat to monsters. That was not because onmyojis were more powerful than monsters, but because compared to solitary monsters, onmyojis always appeared in groups.

But now that the monsters have gathered to form a joint army, the advantage of the Onmyoji has been lost.

Not only in terms of quality, the monsters completely crushed the Onmyoji in terms of quantity.

"By the way, what about the other news?"

"Well, another one."

I don't know why when talking about this, Suixiang, who was originally straightforward, suddenly became nervous, and her weird look made Yakumo Purple feel uncomfortable.
