The self-cultivation of the passer-by hero

Underworld, White Jade Tower.

Yuyuko was still in a coma at the moment, and Youmu who was standing by had a guilty expression on her face.

"It's all my fault," Youmu said with great self-blame: "If I could have arrived earlier, Yuyuko-sama wouldn't have either"

"With your small body, even if you are a hundred steps ahead, it will be in vain." The merciless poisonous tongue naturally came from Kaguya, who was in a bad mood.

The prisoner should be praised for being too alert or extremely cunning. He committed crimes everywhere without leaving any clues.

"Where was Yuyuko attacked?" Even though her most cherished friend was killed, Yakumo Zi still maintained a calmness that was different from ordinary people, which surprised Kaguya a little.

"In the atrium." Youmu replied without thinking.

"Go and have a look." Reimu took the lead and ran towards the atrium, followed by everyone, leaving Youmu alone in the room to take care of the unconscious Yuyuko.

There are no other decorations in the atrium of the White Jade Tower, and a single Westward Demon is enough to fill the space.

There were no traces of battle on the flat ground, and the fluctuation of spiritual power in the air could not be normal anymore. When everyone was distressed about the prisoner's tightness, Yakumo Zi suddenly said something.

"Today's spring, I'm afraid Baiyu Tower will be a lot deserted."

"ah?"

This nonsense sentence made Reimu raise an eyebrow: "What are you talking about?"

"No, I just feel that there is no Xixingyou, and I am afraid that the monsters will not go to the underworld specially to enjoy the cherry blossoms." Yakumo Zi looked at the huge Xixingyou above her head, and said calmly.

Yes, the Westward Demon is dead, and what is left here is just a body waiting to wither completely.

This is not news, as early as the second day after the Lunar War ended, Yakumo Zi received the news from Yuyuko that Xixingyou died without warning that night.

Yakumo Purple, who knew the inside story, was naturally not surprised, but felt a little more sad in her heart.

From now on, she no longer has to worry that Yuyouzi will suddenly disappear one day, but as a price -

Yuko left her completely.

Xixingyao is the embodiment of the main body of the weapon of great crime, and it was Yuko who sealed it with her own body. When Xixingyao withered, it also represented the end of Yuko's life.

However, this is also expected. Most of the existences related to the Weapon of Sin have been turned into history by Takeya, including Yuuko.

"Hey, Zi, I said, hello!" Reimu's rude call brought Zi back to reality from sadness.

Reimu's temper could no longer make her have any other thoughts. She just asked casually: "What's wrong? Did you find anything?"

"No," Lingmeng looked at Yakumo Zi very unhappy and said, "It's just you, that undead was attacked by someone, why don't you look in a hurry at all."

"Why, we are very angry that Youyouzi was attacked, but we have a better way than looking for clues here without thinking like you."

"What can we do?" Reimu and Kaguya asked in unison.

"Sit back and wait."

Yakumo Zi picked up the folding fan in her hand and flicked it lightly, several gaps opened up around her, and the scenes reflected on the other side were all the residents of Gensokyo. At first glance, they have nothing to do with each other, but they have one thing in common. That is, they all have a close connection with Takeya.

Reimu's eyes lit up, and he seemed to understand Yakumo Murasaki's intention.

"Since we haven't found any clues from the people who have been attacked, let's go and guard the prisoner's next target." Yakumo Zi narrowed her eyes and said confidently: "If our guess is not wrong, the next target must be here. among people.”

"Then take action."

There is absolutely no ambiguity in what he says and what he does. Reimu decided on a rough action plan in just a few moments: "Zi, you will be responsible for finding the traces of the prisoner. Once she appears, we will go through the gap and catch him directly!"

"No, this is too dangerous," Yakumo Murasaki shook her head and rejected Reimu's plan: "Even Yuyuko was captured directly by a sudden attack. Maybe it will be too late by the time we find him."

"Then inform them in advance so that they can be mentally prepared?"

"No, it's easy to alert the enemy. After all, anyone but us could be the culprit, especially them. The suspicion would be even greater."

"Then what do you think we should do?" Neither this nor that would work. Reimu simply waved his hands and remained the same, leaving all such troublesome things to Yakumo Murasaki to consider.

"Split up."

After thinking for a while, Yakumo Murasaki expressed her thoughts: "The three of you will protect them separately, and we will be ready to provide support at any time during the gap. This will not alert the snake, but also avoid the possibility of being taken down by one blow."

"Leave it to me Da☆Za!"

"Well, let's do it."

Neither Reimu nor Marisa objected to this. Only Kaguya replied slowly after being silent for a long time: "That's okay, but how to allocate manpower?"

"Since we have to keep it secret, let's allocate it according to familiarity as much as possible," Yakumo Murasaki looked around at everyone and said, "Marisa, you go to the Scarlet Devil Mansion, Reimu, you go to the old hell, and Kaguya, you go to the Human Realm. Bar."

The other two people agreed directly. Kaguya glanced at Yakumo Murasaki and said, "Have you forgotten that the turkey has been captured? What else am I doing in the human world?"

"There's another person there."

Yakumo Purple pointed at the gap. The object reflected in the scene in Renzhi was not Meihong who was still in a coma, but Ah Qiu.

"She?" Kaguya was stunned, obviously not expecting that this person would have anything to do with Takeya.

Not only she, but even Reimu didn't understand that although the memories that had been taken away had been restored, what was lost was still completely lost.

What Reimu got was the complete power of Hakurei passed down from the Hakurei of the Gods to the first generation shrine maiden of the Heian era, nothing more.

This is especially true for Kaguya. As the "Kaguya Princess", she has already been eliminated by Takeya and Meihong. As Chang'e's spare body, it is a miracle caused by Eirin that she can survive until now, let alone other .

Looking at the confused people, Yakumo Purple inevitably felt a touch of sadness in her heart.

Although as a monster, I have long been used to life and death, but like this, everyone in front of me is clearly connected by a deep bond, but for various reasons, it seems that there is a wall between each other.

Yuko, Reimu—

Although they have all returned to themselves in another way, what is this feeling of loneliness?

Looking at the dark clouds that will never go away in the sky of the underworld, that is the true portrayal of Yakumo Zi's heart at this moment. The former friends have forgotten those pasts or reincarnated or become undead, only I remember the bits and pieces, like now live forever.

Suddenly, Yakumo Zi suddenly felt that it would have been nice if she had died in that battle, at least she would not feel out of place in this new world like she is now
