I, Hikigu, are contained by the evil god

"In all fairness, if it were me, I probably wouldn't return my body."

"As you said yourself, whether you want to be resurrected, or want to return to the human world, or want to see your mother who has been away for thousands of years, these are all understandable things."

"You still have a lot of concerns in the world, and these concerns make you do something that is understandable."

Biqigu shrugged,

"If the resurrection of the great savior and hero only needs to sacrifice an insignificant passer-by like me, then I think 90.00% of the people in this world will agree."

"Ah."

Abe Seimei laughed dumbfounded, straightened his back, raised his head slightly,

In front of Hikigaya, it seems that this is the first time he made such a proud look:

"Don't underestimate people, young man.

——I am Seimei Abe!"

"Om!!! Kacha——"

The sound of humming and paper tearing followed, and with the sound, Abe Seimei turned into sifted powder little by little.

There was no wind in the pure white space, but there was wind at this time, and the powder was blown away with the wind, drifting far, far away.

The image of Abe Seimei in Hikigaya's heart has also been frozen at that moment with a proud appearance.

Hikigu remained silent, understanding Seimei's meaning in the silence.

He got it.

It's not that Seimei doesn't want to do it, let alone can't do it.

If you are a person, you will have concerns, and if you have concerns, you will be impulsive.

It is pride that can suppress impulse, Seimei's pride does not allow herself to do that kind of thing.

——Some people are tired of being famous, while others use it to perfect themselves.

People go with the wind, no one takes the folding fan, the folding fan naturally falls and rolls.

When the fan fell, it flew in the air, and the folding fan opened by itself to reveal the woman on it.

The two sleeves of Yuyi Fox are raised forward, the head is slightly tilted forward, the neck looks a bit long, and the hem of the kimono is flying in the wind.There is only a crescent moon on the right half of the white folding fan, and the background is a blur of mica color, which adds a bit of loneliness and desolation to Abeno at night.

With the fan swaying gently, the happy and independent woman on the fan seems to be gone with the wind... But she looks a little illusory, with her long skirt submerged in the autumn grass, like a mountain spirit, or an unknown fairy girl.

Under the gaze of Hikigu, the feathered fox on the fan gradually faded, and finally disappeared, as if she had suddenly come to life just now, and really went away with the wind.

——As if he left with Abe Seimei.

Hikigu didn't know whether it was this folding fan that was psychic, and the feathered fox on it really followed the owner; or Abe Seimei took the feathered fox on it with his own hands as a thought.

Mothers in this world have to live well, so the lonely Abe Seimei took away the "mother" on the fan as a thought.

Maybe he still has a lot of human feelings. Although he didn't say much to Yuyihu, in fact, he still has a lot to say to his mother who has been away for thousands of years.

Not talking is just because the more I talk, the more I want to talk, and the more I talk, the more reluctant to leave;

It's the same for him, and it's also for his mother. If you don't see him, you won't miss him too much.

"..."

No longer looking at the flying and falling folding fan, Hikigu stood on the spot, hesitated for a while in silence,

"Let's go."

Hikigu told himself,

"I should go back too."

Chapter 42 I became the co-lord of monsters (two in one)

In reality, Hikiguya opened his eyes again.

——But this time, it is no longer the weird name Hikigu Seimei, but Hikigu Hachiman.

Read as Hiki Valley Hachiman, "Hikigaya Hachiman", an agent of the Writing Association, the nemesis of evil gods, the strongest newcomer of the Association, and a disciple of the general.

His consciousness returned to this long-lost body, he took a deep breath and stretched his limbs.

At this moment, a section of memory is like a flood that opened the gate, and various deeds of Seimei Hikigaya before poured into Hikigaya's mind.

His brain was sore for a while, Bi Qigu shook his head and sighed softly.

Looking around while stretching, Bi Qigu's eyes were pitch black, without any light.

"The real thing: understanding."

"True martial arts."

The thick blood was rushing through the limbs and blood vessels, and the heat flow climbed up the eyes to moisturize the retina.

——Bikigu is a senior agent of the fourth stage after all. Even if there is no light, it is no big deal. Once the ability is activated, there is nothing invisible.

He looked around and saw the cave environment with overgrown grass and gravel, and also saw the feather-clothed fox lying unconscious on the big bluestone in front of him, wearing a pure white robe.

Bi Qigu's complexion was complicated, but just looking at Yuyihu, a lot of emotions surged in his heart.

This is of course not a normal phenomenon, but Bi Qigu knew it well.

——"You don't have to worry, as I said, my soul will disappear with the disappearance of this image world. There is only pure power and a little imprint on this soul fragment."

——"He may have a little influence on you, but I believe in your ability...you also have to believe in your ability."

——This is what Abe Seimei said back then.

Hikiya understands that his abilities are indeed very powerful, and he can even eliminate the pollution of Yamata no Orochi and the influence of Seimei, but it seems that some fish that have slipped through the net have not been eliminated.

——Is it because the "real thing" feels that this effect is harmless to him, so he doesn't care about it?

In Hikigu's understanding, the weakening of the real thing against foreign pollution and the whispers of the ancient gods is more like the rejection of the immune system... Now his understanding and guess have been further confirmed.

In short, this reaction in my heart should be what Seimei called "a little influence"... After all, this body was possessed by Abe Seimei, and part of his emotions may be left behind.

As Qingming's only remaining relative in this world, Yuyihu is also the biggest concern, and his feelings are undoubtedly the strongest and most complicated... Now this kind of feeling is partly inherited by Hikigu.

When Hikigu saw Yuyihu, he even had a feeling of admiration for seeing his mother, and it was mixed with a lot of feelings like guilt and heartache.

...Let's talk about it, go back to the association to see if this effect can be eliminated, and it doesn't matter if it can't be eliminated.

——He saw from those memories that Abe Seimei helped him save the world, and everyone survived, and no agent died.

There is no doubt that this guy who said a lot of cruel words was actually giving selflessly to Qigu from the beginning to the end.

Hikigu didn't want to pursue the motivation and purpose of the other party's actions anymore, he only knew that there were not many people in this world who treated him so well.

For someone like him who does not want to owe favors to others, Qingming's actions made him both moved and embarrassed, because Qingming is dead, so he is destined not to repay this kindness...In this case, he can only Instead of Seimei, he took care of his mother, Fox Hagoromo.

So it's not a problem to keep the emotion that belongs to Seimei... Rather, that emotion can make Bi Qigu treat Yuyihu better.

"Tsk." Bi Qigu shook his head, lamenting the impermanence of the world in his heart.

A day ago, he would never have imagined that he just came out for a trip, and in the end he saved the world by the way, and somehow gained half a mother.

Yomo's life has always been a masterpiece of magical realism, especially Hikigu's life.

Gradually getting familiar with his body, Bi Qigu slowly walked towards the entrance of the cave, leaving the cave, intending to go out and have a look.

Before leaving, Hikiya took out the lucky charm from Yasaka Shrine from his pocket again—it is the origin of all events today.

Even though the feathered fox was close at hand, this lucky charm did not show any abnormality, neither made a sound nor illuminated, and quietly blended with the environment in the dark cave.

There is a faint moonlight in the direction of the hole, which makes Hikigaya raise his right wrist to look at the watch. Patek Philippe's built-in luminous function makes the direction of the second hand clearly visible.

It's 3:24 in the morning, if you sleep now, just get up later, Bi Qigu can sleep well after a hard fight.

But the moment Bi Qigu stepped out of the cave, all his thoughts were instantly emptied, he shook his head, his hair stood on end, and his muscles immediately tensed up.

——Outside the cave, suddenly a pair of green eyes opened in unison, looking at Biqigu!

In the sky, on the trees, on the ground, and even underground, there are densely packed eyes staring from all directions. In the dark and quiet night, the green eyes blinked and blinked, and the eyeballs rolled around. It was really scary to watch.

"……monster?"

Hikigu frowned, but didn't move.After experiencing the initial reaction and vigilance, Hikigaya discovered that the owners of those green eyes were those monsters.

"Cough cough...cough cough..."

The monsters receded to the two sides like a tide, and a passage in the middle was divided. The little old man Nuliang Huapiao, who was bent over and stooped, came tremblingly with a cane.

...It is said to be a walking stick, but it is actually a thicker branch randomly found in the forest.

Hikigu was in awe of it, because this man deserved his respect.

Qingming's memory told him that the old man's knife was very critical and amazing; under Qingming's rescue, Nuliang Huapiao, whose life was hanging by a thread, recovered his life.

It is a blessing in disguise that the dark wound that has troubled Nuliang Huapiao for 150 years, and was injured by Yaqi's divine power during the encirclement and suppression of the shoe sect, met today's palm hit by Yamata no Orochi himself, and the two forces fought against the poison with poison. All offset.

So don't look at the current Nuliang Huapiao looking very weak, but in fact, after a few days to recover the body, Nuliang Huapiao will be better than ever.

This is pretty good, this is the ending that a hero should have.

"Agent Hikigu, Seimei-sama has told us about you."

Nura Gobo bowed to Hiki Valley on behalf of the monster,

"Thank you for discovering and debunking Yamata no Orochi's conspiracy, thank you for buying precious time for everyone's delay, and thank you for bringing back Abe Seimei-sama for us for a short time."

——If Nuliang Yupiao didn't say anything, Hikigaya would never have thought that he had done so many things in such a short period of time.

"Our monsters must repay their kindness, and we thank you."

Nura's bow was like a signal, and the people behind him bowed in unison as soon as he bowed, bending vertically at [-] degrees, looking very sincere,

"So, according to Master Seimei's instructions, we will dedicate our loyalty to you."

"Oh ah?"

Hikigu's smiling eyes widened suddenly, he felt that he must have misheard the lines,

"Did you say the wrong thing by mistake just now, or did you say that I didn't hear clearly?"

"We didn't say anything wrong, and you didn't hear me wrong." Nuliang Huapiao looked up at Hikigu, smiled and nodded to confirm, "Master Seimei handed us over to you."

"According to what he said, you will inherit Master Seimei's mantle and become the co-lord of the new generation of Japanese monsters... Regarding this issue, the monsters who are already grateful to you are in full agreement, and no one has raised any objections."

"Ah? No way? This, this, but..."

Bi Qigu was momentarily at a loss for words.

His eyes looked around for a week, and the dense green eyes were indeed full of anticipation and respect.

Bi Qigu was shocked, what happened to the co-owner?where am I?who I am?what did I do?

"The memory he left me doesn't have this...although he told me that he left me a small gift."

Hikigu felt his throat was dry and astringent for no reason.

"But this gift is too much of a surprise, right?"

Biqigu subconsciously wanted to refuse, because power and obligation are directly proportional, and this title sounds very troublesome... But before he could say anything, a vague change appeared in front of him, and Biqigu found that the scene in front of him had changed again.

"When you trigger this memory, it means that you are about to become the co-owner of monsters."

"And to become the co-lord of monsters, you have to go through a ritual."

In a pure white space, Abe Seimei walked from a distance.

"So, I am the fragment of memory responsible for teaching you something about that ritual, and the deepest mystery of spells."

Hikigu was silent for a moment, rubbing his hair irritably,

"I haven't heard you say that I want to be the co-lord of monsters. You don't know that I'm afraid of trouble."

"You don't have to worry about it, and it's not bad for you, is it?" Qingming smiled, "At your current stage, they can help you; when you grow up in the future, they can take care of you... I'm asking you , After all, I still can’t let them go.”

"...Okay, I see, you've already talked about this."

"If you beg me to accept the favor, if I don't accept it, it will be too cheap and behaved."

Hikigu smashed his lower lip, showing distress,

"But let's say it first, I won't condone monsters, at most I will provide a little shelter in the future."

"...I also know that you did this to give them some protection and prevent today's situation from happening again, but in fact, you don't need me to be a co-owner, and I will do what I can."
