Zongman: The Traveler In Our Dreams

On the streets of Heian-kyo.

A man and a woman, like a couple of gods, walked hand in hand on the streets of Heian-kyo, naturally attracting the attention of many passers-by.

However, the two did not care about other people’s attention.

This was Wubie’s first time to go shopping in the true sense, so he was curious about everything on the street.

Although compared with modern times, the production process of these things is very rough, but it also has a unique flavor.

After all, many things here have been lost in modern times.

While Wubie was observing the goods on the street, Yakumo Yukari on the side focused all his attention on him.

It was Yakumo Yukari who suddenly spoke just now.

No, it should not be said that she appeared suddenly, after all, Yakumo Yukari has been with Wubie for a long time.

In fact, after Wubie returned to Saigyouji’s house five years ago, Yakumo Yukari also came to Saigyouji’s house through a gap.

However, because Wubie did not have the habit of using spiritual sense to explore when he was at home, he did not know that Yakumo Yukari had been with him for five years.���

Although she saw his true side, when she knew the truth, Yakumo Yukari couldn’t help but complain.

“You don’t use your spiritual sense at home, you are really careless.”

For Zi, there is no absolutely safe place in the world, the only safe place is in her own gap.

So when she is outside, Yakumo Zi always keeps alert.

And five years ago, her only safe place disappeared, so Yakumo Zi didn’t dare to stay in the gap for a long time.

Who knows if Wubie will suddenly appear in the gap.

This is actually one of the reasons why Yakumo Zi decided to come out to observe Wubie.

As time passed, Yakumo Zi discovered that Wubie had never been to the gap.

Even if he went to hell, he just passed through.

However, in response to Yakumo Zi’s complaints, Wubie just smiled and said

“Well, first of all, I can confirm that Saigyouji’s family is safe. Secondly, since you have been observing me for five years, you should understand.”

“……”

Hearing Wubie say this, Yakumo Yukari fell silent.

Yes, how could she not know? After all, after observing a person for five years, one would naturally have a very deep understanding of him.

Why Wubie didn’t like to use his spiritual sense at home? First, he felt that home was a place to relax and one shouldn’t be nervous all the time.

Second, Wubie didn’t want to infringe on the privacy of his family, which was the most basic respect for his family.

Knowing Wubie’s reason, Yakumo Yukari also sighed.

“Alas, you really work hard for this family. You are obviously the strongest, why would you be affected by this kind of love affair? Aren’t you afraid that someone will take the opportunity to threaten you in the future?”

Yakumo Yukari said with ill intentions.

However, Wubie knew that she was just worried.

It was just because of her image that she couldn’t explain it directly, so she chose to use this statement. The current Yakumo Yukari has changed a lot compared to the first time they met.

When a person spends five years on only one thing, then anyone will change because of this thing.

She is no longer as arrogant and domineering as before. For five years, Yakumo Yukari has not left Heian-kyo, and has practiced and honed her character while observing Wubie. She is no longer as bloodthirsty as before. In the past five years, there has been no news about Kamikakushi in Heian-kyo.

Similarly, she is no longer cold and ruthless. Even she has been attracted by Wubie’s gentleness. She even often envied Yuyuko.

How nice it would be if Wubie was the one taking care of her, Yakumo Yukari often thought so, including now.

So when Yakumo Yukari once again recalled Wubie’s image in the past five years because of Wubie’s words, her eyes couldn’t help but become a little obsessed.

Noticing that Yakumo Yukari was motionless, Wubie turned his head with some confusion, and then saw her obsessed expression.

Wubie was inevitably a little surprised. Although he knew that she had changed a lot, he didn’t expect the change to be so big.

But no matter how surprised he was, Wubie would not treat other people’s changes in a malicious way.

And since the other party has changed, Wubie naturally has to take it seriously, so he stretched out his hand and pinched Yakumo Yukari’s nose, pretending to be curious and asked

“What happened? I suddenly froze.”

“”No, nothing.”

She answered hesitantly.

Realizing her own thoughts, she was a little afraid to look at Wubie, so she turned her head away, but she was still reluctant to let go of Wubie’s hand.

Seeing this scene, Wubie couldn’t help but smile.

But he didn’t plan to tease Yakumo Yukari.

Even if Yakumo Yukari had a high degree of favorability towards him, it didn’t mean that he could do anything he wanted.

So he just held Yakumo Yukari’s hand and walked forward slowly.

After a while, Yakumo Yukari also recovered from her shyness, but didn’t speak in a hurry, but followed Wubie quietly.

The two of them just strolled quietly, enjoying the tranquility that belonged to them alone. After a while, she spoke

“”Nothing but this life” is a strange name, representing a beautiful fantasy, but can this fantasy really come true?”

It seems like he is mumbling to himself, but he is also asking Wubie.

So Wubie also put down the folding fan in his hand and said with a smile.

“I don’t know. Maybe it’s just a beautiful fantasy as you said. But even if it’s a fantasy, you still need to think about it, right?”

Fantasy is a dream that is difficult to achieve, but it is still a dream after all.

As long as it is a dream, as long as you think about it, as long as you dare to think about it, and work hard in this direction, then it will come true one day.

“Just as you said, this may be a fantasy, but at least so far, I have done very well, right?”

Wubie said proudly.

Seeing his proud look, Yakumo Yukari fell silent again.

Yes, he did very well.

Whether it was the future of Youyouko or Komachi and Yingji in hell, he did very well and lived up to the name at all.

If he can keep going like this, then this name may be a portrayal of his life.

So can he do it?

I don’t know, even Wubie himself doesn’t know, how can I, as an outsider, know?

Yes, I am just an outsider, how can I know whether Wubie can really do it.

(It would be great if I could be one of them.)

Looking at the proud man beside her, Yakumo Yukari couldn’t help but think so.

Yes, Yakumo Yukari knew clearly that she was probably in love with this man who scared her at the beginning.

As for why it was not love, it was because love is mutual. This was the truth Wubie told her. Now she just fell in love with him.

After five years of living together day and night, even if it was one-sided, her heart had already been completely attached to Wubie.

The other party was not only the most perfect man she had ever seen, but also one of the only two demons in the world.

In addition, he had been gently caring for Youyouko all these years.

How can you observe a person most effectively? That is to completely put yourself in the picture. Only in this way can you fully understand a person.

So Yakumo Yukari replaced Youyouko with herself, and then imagined what it would feel like if it were herself.

The answer is the same. Happy, no, I should say even happier.

Although Youyouko was alienated because of her power that people feared, it was only for a few years, and what about Yakumo Yukari?

Yakumo Yukari and Youyouko are actually very similar in some ways. In addition to being determined by talent, being special is also destined to represent being excluded.

As a realm demon of one person and one clan, she also possesses the two enviable powers of realm and gap, so Yakumo Yukari has been excluded by everyone since she was a child, and even hunted by monsters and humans.

Humans hope to capture her as a shikigami, while monsters do not allow such special monsters to grow up smoothly.

So in order to survive, Yakumo Yukari had to become cruel, because only in this way could she survive.

If she had met Wubie when she was a child, would her life be different?

It would definitely be completely different.

Yakumo Yukari thought so, and at the same time, she became more and more jealous, wishing to replace Youyouko directly.

(Oh my, jealousy is really terrible.)

Looking at Yakumo Yukari whose face was gloomy, Wubie shook his head helplessly.

He was not a piece of wood. Considering what Yakumo Yukari just said and the feelings that were not concealed at all, how could Wubie not know what she was thinking.

So how should he deal with it now?

Directly express his attitude. Of course, Wubie has a lot of good feelings for Yakumo Yukari, so there is no problem in directly confessing his feelings.

But is this really okay?

He did not understand Yakumo Yukari, and his understanding of her was limited to the settings about Yakumo Yukari that he knew in his previous life.

Those were undoubtedly true, but that Yakumo Yukari was from a thousand years later, the Yakumo Yukari who founded Gensokyo, and she was different from her now.

In order to understand herself, she spent five years.

So can he really confess his feelings based on his previous understanding?

No.

Wubie shook his head in his heart. He valued him very much for the relationship and would not allow himself to do such a thing.

So Wubie stopped.

“Hmm?”

Because she was holding Wubie’s arm, Yakumo Yukari also stopped, and then looked at Wubie in confusion, not understanding why he suddenly stopped.

Just when she was confused, Wubie spoke

“Zi, can I call you that?”

“……”Okay.”

Although she was a little confused, Yakumo Yukari still nodded, because this was what she expected.

After getting Yukari’s permission, Wubie also nodded and continued.

“Purple, although the following words may���You may be shameless, but I still hope you can listen carefully, okay?

Although it was a question, he did not wait for Zi to respond, and then he continued

“Just like you said, this life is like a fantasy, and no one knows whether this fantasy can really come true.

Then can I invite you to be the supervisor of this name, and witness with me whether this name can be carried through my life?”

He turned around and smiled at Zi, who was already stunned. Although he was smiling, his expression was extremely serious.

So this is not a joke, nor is it a dream.

Therefore, after hearing this request, Zi was stunned, and the answer was self-evident…
