"But now the object of your admiration has become that Lord Ling?"
In fact, Tsurugi Ya also knew that he was very different from that young boy.
"Well, I did admire him once, even though he is younger than us," Sakura Manji just looked at his right hand, clenching and relaxing it, and said, "But I have figured it out. I want to be myself."
Volume 3: Between Man and God: Chapter : The Difference Between the New and the Old ()
The "Colorless King" represents "chaos" in the stone tablet system, which is also known as "changeability". It is different from other kings, whose abilities are basically the same in each generation - although the silver and gold kings have never been replaced, the abilities of the Colorless King will change in each generation. The ability of the previous Colorless King, Miwa Ichigo, is prophecy, while Sakuraman Shu's ability is a combination of the ability of the "king" that originally resides in his right hand -
It became "fiction".
In fact, even if Sakuman Shu's ability to extract the void still remained in his right hand, he could only extract the void from the chests of some people, because the voids of most people under the age of seventeen had been extracted by Ling Wu Ji and cast into "Judgment".
But now, no matter whether the people in the funeral home are all under seventeen years old or not, he can create something similar to the void for them, and once the people in the funeral home become his clan, they can even "create" the "void" for others and use it themselves - Sakuman Shu is still used to calling that thing the void, but just like there is an absolute difference in power between ordinary clans and royals, the power of the void that ordinary clans can create and use is also different. For example, Sakuman Shu himself can use the void of his classmate named Soul Hall Souta to directly break through all obstacles, but that void in Soul Hall Souta's hands can only be used to open cans.
The people at the funeral home were not opposed to becoming Sakuman Shu's clan.
Moreover, Sakuragi Shuu also brought them a new program, new goals, and possibly even a new order.
It felt like they were back to square one.
So they quickly mobilized, with a posture of regrouping. Everyone's face seemed to be glowing, and they took action one after another according to the leaders of their respective groups. Only a few people were still standing still. Coincidentally, they were the ones who had held a meeting with Ling Wuji.
"But isn't this really just being a pawn of that Lord Ling?"
Quadrant adjusted the glasses on his nose and said.
Like Tsuruga Ya, he was not very optimistic about the current situation.
"In fact, I can't really tell what he's thinking," Tsurugi Ya also responded, saying, "But, having a goal is better than before, right?"
"But isn't it your responsibility that the funeral society became what it was, Ya?"
Tsumugami Ya avoided the question, and it was obvious that the argument between the two of them had been going on for a long time.
But Sidianyi didn't let go of his idea. He glanced at Ying Manshu who was a little at a loss not far away and said, "Do you think he can do better than you?"
"Why not?" Tsugami Ya said, "Before, I thought that no one except me could truly eliminate the disaster brought by the Apocalypse Virus, but that disaster really dissipated into thin air. Now that the world has become like this, you should also see a wider world."
"how about you?"
"Quadrant, I'm not the kind of person who can change the world like you think," Tsurugi Ya shook his head and said, "All I've ever wanted to do is to hold someone in my arms again, but now, the existence of that Lord Ling has completely cut off my hope. In other words, my heart is dead."
"In that case, why don't you just go to Tokyo Bay and jump off?"
Quadrant seemed to be giving Tsuchiya Gaya advice very seriously.
"So you actually hate me so much?"
"Yeah, after all, there is nothing more cruel than a person pinning his dreams on another person but that person crushing them without hesitation, right?"
Tsurugi Ya smiled and said, "You say that as if I'm a heartless scumbag."
"Is not it?"
"Even if it's healed, it's because you had a bad vision back then. It's all your own fault, man," Tsurugi Ya laughed happily. "But it's not too late to make up for it now. What do you think of the episode?"
"If I really have to choose, why don't I go find that Lord Ling?"
"But why do you think that Lord Ling needs your help?"
Shinomiya Ayase felt that there seemed to be some barrier between the two men that had been broken, so the relationship between them was gradually changing. Shinomiya Ayase also noticed it keenly, but she just stood there at a loss, thinking, even Tsuchiya Gaya and Sitant, were they going to take a step forward?
She lowered her head, but because of her extremely good figure, she could only see her breasts but not her intact, strong legs.
Even now, she still found it incredible, as if she was living in a dream. In this dream, she gained the ability to walk freely, but could only watch the organization she belonged to fall apart after losing the enemy. Everything seemed to have become completely different, but everything seemed to be proceeding in an orderly manner at a normal pace. She tried to save something, but she could do nothing.
She originally thought that after becoming a normal person, she would be able to do many things that she couldn't do before.
But the reality was still like a cold iron curtain, pressing down on her head, making it impossible for her to look up and see clearly. She could only lower her head and breathe.
How could she think she could do that?
"Ayase-san, what's wrong?"
The girl wearing cat ears started talking to her at this time.
"No, it's nothing."
Shinomiya Ayase shook her head, thinking that everything was getting better now and she should cheer up too.
"Shinomiya."
At this time, Tsuruga Ya turned around and used a more unfamiliar name.
"Ya?"
"I remember that your leg was healed by that Ling Jun, right?"
Shinomiya Ayase nodded, not knowing why Tsuchiya Gaya brought up this.
“If you feel that you can’t see reality clearly, why not find the person who is closest to the reality of the world?”
"What?" Shinomiya Ayase was unable to react for a moment, then suddenly realized something, her face turned pale, and she said, "Because Shu can't simulate my void, so you think I'm useless and want to exclude me? But I can still continue to drive End Rave!"
"No, that's not what I meant," Tsugami Ya said calmly, "I mean, I want you to be the liaison between the funeral home and him, what do you think? After all, you are someone Ji and I trust absolutely, and he has healed your legs before, so he will trust you too."
Volume 1: Between Man and God: Chapter : The Difference Between the Inside and the Outside ()
Ling Wuji is the Shinomiya Ayase whom he met in a cafe, and there is another person who surprised him.
Yukinoshita Haruno.
Although they had never met before, but at the first sight of this person, Ling Wuji could tell from her appearance that she was the older sister of Yukinoshita Yukino, the proud student of Hiratsuka Shizuka, and the future heir of the Yukinoshita family. However, the only thing that made him feel a little hesitant was that Yukinoshita Yukino was obviously Princess Taiping, so why was this person's figure completely opposite to hers?
"I say, is a liaison officer really necessary? And what is she here for?"
Ling Wu Ji pointed at Yukinoshita Haruno and said.
"Forehead……"
What Tsugami Gai said about letting Shinomiya Ayase be the liaison officer for seeing ghosts was purely a rhetoric. At least although Shinomiya Ayase herself could be considered a senior executive of the funeral home, she could only play the role of charging in the front. However, in the so-called "war" led by Sakuman Shu to "save" Japan's yakuza, she had neither a hollow nor the need to use large-scale combat weapons such as "End Rave" -
Although Tsuchiya didn't dislike her.
He really hoped that Shinomiya Ayase could walk out of the funeral home.
But someone is indeed needed to maintain contact between Ling Wuji and the funeral home.
And Shinomiya Ayase just happened to be the person who met the requirements.
Yukinoshita Haruno looked at the boy who looked only middle school age with interest. After a while, she said, "Let me tell you myself. People from our company were eliminated by them. They claimed to end this order and create a future without yakuza. To be honest, although our company was involved with yakuza, I called the police when I heard them say that. However, the police department went through a secret process and finally gave an investigation result, saying that they were from the mysterious side."
"Oh?"
"Originally they would keep this a secret from me, but since I'm the daughter of a county councillor, I had someone bribe a policeman and got the investigation report. Then I used the investigation report to find the people from the so-called Official History Compilation Committee, hoping to use them to deal with the funeral home. Then, the people from the Official History Compilation Committee sent someone to negotiate with them, and then they asked me to follow this lady to see you."
"So you just followed her here obediently?"
Ling Wuji raised his eyebrows in surprise, thinking that this person was described by Hiratsuka Shizuka as a well-connected person. Couldn't she see that she had been abandoned by the people in the official history compilation committee, and that sending her here with Shinomiya Ayase meant that they were leaving her to their own devices?
“There is no such thing as a free lunch, right?”
Yukinoshita Haruno just said calmly.
Ling Wuji naturally understood that she was referring to the fact that he had taken advantage of the Official History Compilation Committee, so he had nothing to complain about being abandoned.
"So what are you going to do with me? The man behind the scenes who claims to be bringing an end to the age of the yakuza?"
"I didn't say that."
Ling Wuji just shook his head.
"But that was your instruction to them, wasn't it?"
"Can I give instructions to anyone? For example, if I tell you to eat shit, will you eat it?"
Ling Wuji just chatted with her casually and said.
Yukinoshita Haruno narrowed her eyes, but in the eyes of both Shinomiya Ayase and Ling Wuzhi, her attitude was just a pretense.
"Oh, we meet again."
Ling Wuji greeted Shinomiya Ayase.
"Hello."
Shinomiya Ayase also responded cautiously.
Ling Wuji was quite impressed by this person.
After all, "destruction" uses her void as a carrier.
Although he felt that it was right and reasonable, he helped Shinomiya Ayase heal her legs so that she could walk normally, and he took away her void and created "annihilation", so the two of them no longer owed each other anything.
Of course, extracting other people's void to create one's own exclusive weapon is actually a bit too unethical. Although theoretically "Judgment" is indestructible, such things are impossible to predict. Once "Judgment" is really broken by someone, the consequence may be the death of those people. Therefore, Ling Wuji never told anyone about it, and of course he hardly used it.
"Honestly, you're just asking for trouble by bringing her here," Ling Wuji sighed and said, "But never mind, it was me who gave you the idea."
Shinomiya Ayase couldn't say anything more.
The young man looked at Yukinoshita Haruno and thought to himself that the tactic of retreating to advance by the Official History Compilation Committee was a brilliant one, quite similar to the empty city plan that Zhuge Liang used against Sima Yi. Anyway, they couldn't stop him from realizing that intention, so he might as well test his attitude through this young lady from the secular side.
Although part of the reason might be that the other party found out that Yukinoshita Haruno was the sister of their classmate, and felt that she would not be in any danger.
Ling Wuji thought about it and asked Shinomiya Ayase: "Did your funeral home recruit anyone during the event?"
Shinomiya Ayase looked at him in confusion.
"So what use do you have?"
Ling Wuji complained, and turned to look at Yukinoshita Haruno, who happened to be looking at him as well. Their eyes met. The other party knew clearly that he was just a piece of meat on the chopping board, but he was still calm and fearless, as if he was teasing Ling Wuji, with a smile on his face, but the boy rolled his eyes:
"Although I know that people like you are very skilled at small tricks, you don't think that this little trick can help you close the gap between us, right?"
"gap?"
Yukinoshita Haruno said in a confused manner.
"Since you have chosen to step into the world of the mysterious side, whether intentionally or unintentionally, you can no longer turn back," Ling Wuji said absentmindedly, "No, although it is actually quite simple for you to turn back, it does not quite conform to my ideas, at least, it does not conform to the rules I set."
"Then may I ask the mastermind behind this, what exactly are the rules you set? Do you mean to do whatever you say?"
"As much as I want to deny it, technically, it is true."
"In that case, I have nothing more to say."
Yukinoshita Haruno looked resigned to her fate.
