Chapter 83

After resting and tidying up, it was past eleven o'clock at night when Soya Yoshiaki and his party left the shore of Lake Biwa.

The last tram also stopped running 10 minutes ago.

Kyoko Sugawara, who was drenched all over, did not insist on walking home alone, but followed Soya, who was not only soaked, but also lost his soul, to the old house in Kirino for a night.

She had a lot of questions for him, and she just had to sort them out.

As the night darkened, the sound of the lapping of the lake waves behind him gradually disappeared, and the four of them walked in silence all the way.

Kyoko was thinking deeply, Zhao Wuling was reticent, and Yue Du, who was always talkative, didn't know why she didn't speak.

Zong Gu walked in the front, and it took a lot of time to break free from his heavy thoughts.He turned his head, and when he was about to say something, he first saw Jingzi trembling slightly with her arms folded.

"..."

Preoccupied with things.

Zonggu secretly felt ashamed, and immediately took off his coat and gave it to her.

He took off his jacket before going into the water. Although he was slightly wet at this time, for Kyoko who was still completely soaked in her thin shrine maiden outfit, it was like sending charcoal in a timely manner.

"no need……"

Miss Miko was still being polite, so Soya stuffed it into her hand, and then looked at Tsukuyomi who was walking at the back.

"Do you want to understand the meaning of the phrase 'the fate is fixed, the sword cannot be moved, and the sword will not die'?"

"..."

Tsukiyomi looked up at him, then shook her head.

"Then forget it." Zong Gu took a look at him, "It's hard for you."

"...I can understand this sentence!"

Kyoko, who had already put on her coat, waited until Tsukidu finished complaining before speaking: "Mr. Soya, I have some ideas."

Soya was not surprised, "Tell me."

"I think this is a broken prophecy." Kyoko said.

He was tall and thin, and the jacket was on Kyoko's body, which matched unexpectedly...

Soya sized her up for a while, moved her eyes up, and met Kyoko's face, and then she continued:
"The content of the prophecy is that Soya will be slaughtered by the sword in the future, but he will turn the danger into good luck and realize the 'destiny' of reorganizing Huangquan."

"I also think it's a prophecy."

He thought for a while, then said:

"But Jingzi also said that the prophecy is flawed. Are you sure that 'Mandate of Heaven' is what I am doing now?"

Jingzi nodded firmly, and soon realized that he must have his own opinion when asking this question.

"What do Soya-san think?"

Sogu turned his eyes and looked at Yueyue behind her.

"I agree with Jingzi's interpretation of part of the prophecy, but in terms of the object of the prophecy, I found that there is someone who fits most of the prophecy better than me."

Kyoko also turned around.

"..."

Facing the gaze of the two, Tsukiyomi was a little unnatural.

"I'm dead."

Soya looked at him, "The body of the god is destroyed, but the spirit of the god is still alive. Can you really say that Tsukiyomi-sama is 'dead'?"

"Or, Gao Tianyuan already has a clear definition of the death of the gods, which simply refers to the destruction of the gods?"

Tsukiyomi was silent for a few seconds.

"……No."

Soya looked at Kyoko again, "The other part of the content that I don't agree with is the so-called 'Mandate of Heaven', which should refer to Tsukiyomi-sama going to Yezhiyuan to take office."

He paused.

"This is an assignment from Lord Izanagi."

"..."

Jingzi was startled, and suddenly understood Yueyue's unnaturalness.

He was unwilling to accept such a "fate".

"Of course, this is also my guess." Zongya turned and continued forward, "The prophecy is unreliable, let alone left by a mad god, don't pay too much attention...it's so cold."

Kyoko wanted to return the coat to him, but he refused.

Chao Wuling stepped forward and took his hand.

Under the streetlight, Soya turned his head and looked at Kyoko and Tsukiyomi.

"Let's go back first."

Back at Kirino's old house, and waiting for Kyoko to come out of the shower, it was already midnight.

"……Awaited."

She lowered her head slightly, her long, lustrous hair was draped over her shoulders, black and translucent.

Of course, the Kirino family did not have Kyoko's change of clothes. She was wearing a plain yukata that Soya took some time to find, and it should have belonged to Akane Kirino's aunt.

"I cooked udon noodles." In the kitchen, Soya looked back at her, "If you don't mind, just eat some."

"it is good……"

He had heard Jingzi coming out just now, and he was already serving the noodles in his hands, so he directly brought them to the table for her.

Steaming udon noodles, piled in a bowl with some backyard vegetables, submerged in broth, and two pieces of fried tofu next to sliced ​​scallions.

"The preparations were hasty."

"Where... I started."

Jingzi picked up the fried tofu and took a bite. It was full of strength, and the delicious soup overflowed from it, and the taste was neither salty nor bland.

"Thank you...the taste is very good."

"yes."

There was an obvious smile on Soya's face.

He took off his apron, and brought another side dish, "If you think the taste is bland, here are some pickles. I ate some just now, so I'm going to take a shower first."

Kyoko nodded, "Thank you..."

Soya left the kitchen, and after a while, Tsukuyomi walked in.

Judging by his appearance, he probably came to eat noodles too.Kyoko put down the bowl and chopsticks and was about to serve him noodles, Soya, who was holding the clothes, poked his head out at the door.

"Let him do it himself."

"..."

Tsukiyomi just sat down and stood up again.

Chao Wuling was fiddling with her mobile phone in the living room, and just said that she had no appetite.Soya turned and went to the bathroom.

While washing his hair, he saw the high-end shampoo that Yoshikawa gave Asagiri Rin next to him, so he squeezed some into his hands.

After rinsing his body, he sat in the bathtub and let the hot water wrap everything down to his neck before closing his eyes and taking a long breath.

"..."

After soaking for a while, Soya opened his eyes and raised his left hand in the water.

Reflecting the light yellow light, the imprint on the left arm is clearly defined.

The long and narrow black mark like a willow leaf only appeared tonight.It doesn't hurt or itch, and it feels nothing to the touch. Yuedu said that he felt the flow of divine power in it.

"The divine power of Zhilei?"

Soya put on the amulet that he took off just now, and the imprint disappeared without a trace.

He touched his arm, trying to recall what he had spied in Zhilei's memory before, but it was still blank.

Zhilei's memory disappeared along with his spirit, just like pulling out a seedling and taking soil away, even his thoughts while watching it were taken away.In the end, all that remained was the incomplete prophecy that he carved on the ground with an arrow at the last moment.

"The last sentence that I couldn't remember, what is it..."

Really unable to recall, Soya gave up.It was just the joy of achieving one-eighth of the goal, and it was hard for him to show the smile at the beginning...

Pop, pop!

He suddenly patted his face.

"Don't be too greedy."

When he came out of the bath, the clothes he had just changed, as well as the soggy maiden costume, were still piled up in the laundry basket.

Throwing the clothes into the washing machine, Soya returned to the living room, and Kyoko and Tsukiyomi had already finished their noodles.

"I've already washed the dishes."

"yes."

Zong Gu sat down beside Zhao Wuling, the tip of her nose moved, and she turned to look at him.

"I also washed Kyoko's clothes. There is a dryer here."

"..."

Jingzi raised her eyes and nodded after a while.

"I see."

It was late at night, the four of them sat in the living room for a while, and all of them felt tired, especially Soya and Kyoko, so they went to rest.

The most important thing in Kirino's old house is empty rooms, and the room where Kyoko temporarily sleeps is next to Soya.

The two parted at the door of their respective rooms.

"Good night."

Soya looked at Kyoko, she brushed the hair around her ears, and the corners of her mouth were slightly curved.

"……Good night."
