Chapter 77 Meeting Tsugukuni 1
Chapter 77 Meeting Tsugukuni 1
The dimly lit room was lit by an oil lamp.
Tamayo and Ye Xiao, one a ghost and the other a demon, sat facing each other.
Meanwhile, Yushiro lay peacefully to one side.
Looking at the dimly lit room, Ye Xiao joked, "Miss Tamayo, would you like to open the window to let in some fresh air?"
"That kind of joke isn't funny, sir."
Tamayo's expression shifted slightly, but she remained calm and said, "I wonder what you wish to learn from me?"
When it came to business, Ye Xiao got straight to the point.
"Does Miss Tamayo know where Yoriichi's grave is?"
Tamayo was clearly taken aback, wondering why this guy would ask such a question.
The tomb of the strongest man who died hundreds of years ago.
Moreover, Tamayo did not believe that the person in front of her was just looking for the grave of someone who had been dead for so long.
Ye Xiao continued, "I wonder if Miss Tamayo could tell me?"
Tamayo finally mustered her courage and asked, "Could you please tell me why?"
"I said it was to deal with Muzan..."
As he spoke, Ye Xiao moved closer to Tamayo, looked into her eyes, and asked, "Do you believe me?"
Hearing what the guy in front of her said, Tamayo was somewhat tempted.
If Muzan is defeated, I, Tamayo, will definitely come to his aid.
I believe you.
"Mr. Jiguo's grave is located at..."
Tamayo spoke slowly, recounting the story of Yoriichi Tsugikuni's grave.
Jiguo Yuanyi was buried with the help of Zhushi.
At the time, Yoriichi Tsugikuni's body was cut in half at the waist, and when it was discovered, part of the body had been eaten by animals.
So Tamayo buried Yoriichi Tsugikuni on the spot, and laid him to rest.
Ye Xiao nodded slightly as he listened to the information provided by Miss Tamayo.
Now that we know, let's go and see.
Ye Xiao got up to leave.
Looking at Tamayo before him, he thought for a moment, then spoke, "I wonder if Miss Tamayo would be willing to become a demon?"
Upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, Tamayo thought of something unpleasant.
His face turned pale.
"Since you know what you want to know, you should leave now."
Zhu Shi issued an order to leave.
Looking at Tamayo's expression, Ye Xiao also remembered something. It seemed that Tamayo was traumatized by Muzan's words.
However, Ye Xiao took out his own card and placed it on the table.
"I'm sorry, Miss Tamayo, for reminding me of some unpleasant things. I'll be dealing with Muzan in the meantime. If you'd like to watch, I don't mind."
Of course, my invitation remains unchanged.
As he spoke, Ye Xiao opened the window slightly.
Feeling the sunlight, Ye Xiao transformed into a gentle breeze and disappeared from the spot.
As Tamayo watched Ye Xiao leave, her gaze fell on the card on the table, her expression complex.
She also has a trauma related to the idea of changing her race.
Moreover, she was only alive to wait for the opportunity to kill Muzan.
However, she still inexplicably put the card away.
At this moment, Yushiro slowly woke up and saw Tamayo, so he quickly turned over and came to her side.
"Lady Tamayo, I'll protect you!"
... ... ... ...
Outside an abandoned wooden house in a mountain forest.
Ye Xiao looked around.
"Based on the location provided by Ms. Tamayo, this should be the place where Yoriichi Tsugikuni is buried."
"Then it should be nearby."
With that, Ye Xiao began his search.
To be honest, Ye Xiao hasn't seen many souls so far, which seems to be because he entered the cycle of reincarnation after his obsessions were eliminated.
Therefore, Yoriichi Tsugikuni should not have entered reincarnation yet.
After all, this guy is a brother-complex guy and Muzan hasn't even kicked the bucket yet, so how could he willingly go through reincarnation?
Before long, Ye Xiao found the location.
When Ye Xiao arrived at the tombstone, the inscription was weathered and illegible, but Ye Xiao was 100% certain that the tomb in front of him was the grave of Yoriichi Tsugikuni.
Because kneeling beside the tombstone was a ghost with deep red hair, a red haori, dark red markings on its forehead, and sun-patterned hanafuda earrings.
He sat there quietly, watching the sun.
Perhaps noticing Ye Xiao's gaze, Yoriichi Tsugikuni looked towards Ye Xiao.
Inhuman creature.
This was Yoriichi Tsugikuni's first impression.
It possesses immense power, yet it is not a ghost. The person before it does not exude any violent aura, nor does it reek of blood.
This was his second impression.
After glancing at Ye Xiao, Yoriichi Tsugikuni continued to look at the sky and the sun, perhaps not even knowing why he had remained in the human world.
Was it because of Muzan, or because of her own brother?
"Hello, Mr. Yoriichi Tsugikuni." Ye Xiao stepped forward and greeted Yoriichi Tsugikuni.
Yoriichi turned to look at Ye Xiao, "You can see me?"
Yoriichi Tsugikuni's voice was deep and calm.
Ye Xiao nodded and then sat down in front of Yoriichi Tsugikuni.
Yoriichi Tsugikuni was somewhat surprised.
After all, no one can see ghosts except under special circumstances.
"I wonder what brings you here?" Yoriichi Tsugikuni asked directly.
"I'm here to deal with Muzan, doesn't that count?"
Yoriichi Tsugikuni paused for a moment, then shook his head. "I'm sorry, I probably can't help you. I'm just a ghost."
"No, no, no, Mr. Yoriichi."
Ye Xiao denied Yoriichi Tsugikuni's words, "You can help me."
"How can I help you?" Yoriichi Tsugikuni asked.
"Mr. Yoriichi, you are the greatest help."
Ye Xiao smiled faintly. He could let Yoriichi Tsugikuni return to the human world for one night. He was looking forward to seeing Yoriichi Tsugikuni again.
Yoriichi Tsugikuni was puzzled, but he still said, "Since you need my help, I will do my best to assist you."
And so, a verbal agreement was temporarily reached.
So next up is Yoriichi Tsugikuni's talent; copying his talent shouldn't be a problem.
All you need to do is get Yoriichi Tsugikuni's consent.
He could then take over his talent.
So next time he faces the Sword King Tony, his sword will not be at a disadvantage.
"Mr. Yoriichi, would you mind shaking my hand?"
"May I touch you?"
"If you can see it, you can touch it."
After thinking for a moment, Yoriichi Tsugikuni reached out his hand to Ye Xiao. After all, he was just a ghost and there was nothing he could covet.
Ye Xiao didn't hesitate to shake hands with him.
Prometheus's ability to steal is in operation. If he can even steal authority, then Yoriichi Tsugikuni's talent is not a problem either.
Ye Xiao's palm flickered slightly.
Yoriichi Tsugikuni felt as if he had lost something important.
And the divine weapon in Ye Xiao's right hand reappeared.
【Telos Karma!】
(The Ultimate Karma!)
The body's innate talents are copied and pasted.
He then returned the stolen talent.
(Guys, please bear with this; I'm also experiencing writer's block while writing this.)
