Chapter Ninety-Five: One Thought

Rewind time to the moment before Ji Haitang was hit by a tin rod.

At the same time as Shooting Pill Wen turned around and was about to pour a cup of hot coffee for Ji Haitang, Ji Haitang heard a figure of inciting wings.

She followed the voice and looked towards the main entrance.

Outside the main entrance, there were three figures side by side, gradually walking in their direction.

Wenwen is somewhat self-aware, and when he first set up a newsroom, he specially chose a halfway up the mountain that even Tengu could hardly reach.

There are erratic currents between the gorges, and it is impossible for anyone who is not skilled to fly to reach this place.

It's in the middle of nowhere, and Shotimaru doesn't have a good reputation in the first place. So no one came back to visit her.

What's more, at noon, it is quite unusual to have three people like this.

One of them was particularly burly, slightly familiar.

The other two were much thinner and had no wings.

Could it be a white wolf tengu?

With this doubt, Ji Haitang put down the newspaper in his hand, looked at it intently, and carefully observed who it was......

"Huh, isn't that ......?"

Then her eyes narrowed instantly.

She recognized the burly figure as Kurama Tengu, but what really surprised her was that she had never seen the other two.

There is neither the tail of a white wolf tengu nor the wings of a crow tengu.

Why did Kurama Tengu bring outsiders to ask the news agency?

Ji Haitangji's mind sprouted doubts.

But the doubt immediately withered from his mind.

Something even more unusual appeared in her sight, and she didn't have the spare time to care about such trivial matters.

That's the fact that the two people behind Kurama Tengu are not tengu at all.

…… Not only is it not a tengu, but it doesn't even have the characteristics of a youkai!

Humans, or ...... Half-demon?!

「……」

Just when she wanted to test the other party's half-demon posture with her gaze, the white-haired boy who flew a little later suddenly looked up into her eyes from a long distance.

It was this pair of eyes that the indescribable cold hit Ji Haitangji, as if his neck was also frozen.

Why did Kurama Tengu come here with a half-demon?

Why do I have a bad feeling in my own heart?

And what she wanted to ask most was why one of them had a long sword in his hand that even made her feel cold!

Doubts flashed in an instant, Ji Haitang's alarm clock-

"Wen, run away!"

The next second - it all began.

Kurama Tengu, the most burly man, suddenly smashed the wooden door like a gale, several miles away, and appeared on the top of Ji Haitangji.

Immediately afterwards, he held the tin staff in one hand and swung it fiercely towards Ji Haitangji's head.

「?」

The killing intent came so violently and suddenly.

Ji Haitang had no time to react, so she could only stand in place.

The low-pitched tin staff struck her in the head with cruelty.

With an unstoppable momentum that needs no explanation.

Crushed her skull.

……

……

"Begonia!!"

Never before had Shotimaru Wen shouted a person's name so heartbreakingly.

It's like she's never hated someone so heartbreakingly.

"You!!"

In the wooden house, which had only been swayed by a gentle breeze, a strong wind suddenly appeared.

The wind is roaring, roaring.

In a fit of rage, Shotmaru had lost his mind.

The wind roared like a sharp blade and rushed towards Kurama Tengu, but as if encountering a mountain, the gale had no choice but to make a detour and cut deep into the door frame of Kurama Tengu's two volumes.

The wind door frame burst and scattered in an instant, and the sawdust flew away at the same time.

Shooting Maru is fast, as fast as the wind.

Kenya had envisioned the development of the Wind and Thunder further, not like thunder but like the wind.

However, he failed.

Because it is often believed that thunder is faster than wind.

The same is true for him, if he can't break through this layer of cognitive barriers, he can't break through the sword of existing cognitive concepts, and he can't experience the wind.

However, Shotimaru is different, she was born to do it.

And it can do better than other tengu.

The wind is a part of her, the wind is her arms, her wings, her body's derivation.

At the same time as he rushed towards Kurama Tengu in a large and fearless manner, a thin blade of wind like a cicada's wings suddenly appeared between the cracks in the wooden planks of the wooden house.

Like a killing formation, they all rushed towards Kurama Tengu.

Enter, there is no way to enter, and in front of him is the shooting pill that kills with all his might.

Retreat, retreat is irrevocable, and the body is surrounded by a sharp blade-like storm.

For the first time, the spell card rules created by Hakurei Reimu have formed a new hurricane with the use of Shotimaru Bun.

Kurama Tengu looked at the gust of wind, and suddenly a trace of pity flashed in his eyes.

Looking at the Shotimaru with tears on his face, he let go of his right hand that was clenching the tin staff, and used his palm as a blade, slashing down with a palm that was two feet away.

There is no sharp sound of breaking through the air.

There was no flickering sword light.

Black feathers flutter in the sky.

The pommel horse is like a Buddha, and the Buddha does not need expressions.

So when a Buddha kills, he doesn't need mercy.

A movement of the mind is ten thousand miles, and a movement of the mind is ten thousand years.

People usually use the snap of a finger to describe the shortness of time and the speed of time.

Sanskrit refers to a moment as a thought, twenty thoughts as a moment, and twenty moments as a snap of the fingers.

In the battle of Onozuka Komachi, Renli Kenya developed the wind and lightning from a moment to an instant.

Its speed is already comparable to that of the Raven Tengu's fastest shot, Marubun.

In other words, the speed of the shooting pill has reached an instant.

If it were someone else, I would already be tired in the face of such a speed.

What's more, in the midst of the rage, the instantaneous speed of the shooting pill in such a short distance was far greater than usual.

But this time it wasn't usual.

Others are not ordinary others.

What she is facing is Kurama Tengu, who is far ahead of the eight tengu in Yokai Mountain.

One of the strongest big youkai in Yokai Mountain.

Kurama Tengu folded his hands and stood in front of Shotimaru Fumi.

One foot.

It's only a foot away.

A gentle wind blew from the mountains, blowing Kurama Tengu's broken hat.

Under the hat was the face of vicissitudes, and the old man's kind face saw the unwillingness in the eyes of the shooting pill, and he sighed.

Then he stepped forward and closed his eyes for her.

It's so close at hand, it's like the end of the world.

This foot.

It's the real difference between a big monster and a monster.

However, the wind blade of the Shooting Pill played a role after all.

Scratched Kurama Tengu's face and bled out.

Down the corner of the eye that couldn't bear to close.

Is it blood?

Or tears?

This question.

Gensokyo's fastest reporter.

I'm afraid I'll never know.
