"Woo... Goo, Yu, Yuyuko..."

[Ahem... It's really careless...] Isara covered her mouth and coughed a few times [I didn't expect the impact to be so big.] 】

The smoke cleared, revealing the shadow of a maiden.

"Hey, you two, is there anything wrong?" Although the girl unloaded most of the impact just now, it was inevitable that some air currents would cross the girl and impact the two people behind her.

[I'm fine. Isara shook her head and glanced at Yakumo Murasaki in her arms [But this guy seems to have a problem. 】

"Ahem, I'm fine... Yuyuko, what's wrong with Yuyuko?!" Yakumo's purple eyes were blank, but she still muttered Yuyuko's name.

The girl glanced at Yuyuko, but the spirit body did not continue to dissipate, and there was a faint feeling of aggregation.

"Leave me alone... Go to Yuyuko's side..."Yakumo pleaded weakly.

"I really can't help you..."The girl scratched her head and approached the westward demon.

was hit head-on by the girl's punch so closely, and this westward demon was only slightly tilted.

"Uhhhhhh

[Don't move.] Isara glared at Yakumo, who weakly gave up the struggle, but her eyes were still staring at the westward demon.

That's how it works... The remains of Yuyuko, who has merged with the Westbound Demon, have imposed a seal...

If you break the seal, you'll be connected to Yuyuko's death again...

Other words... If Yuyuko's soul still exists, she won't be able to unlock the seal of the Westward Demon...

… However, if you can get from the body of the westbound demon surrounded by necromancy... If you separate the souls of the traveling capital... Even if it can only be done that way...

"Whew..."

"It's almost light, it's weightless. The girl came over with Yuyuko's soul in her arms.

[......] Isara looked at Yuyuko with a complicated face, [The aura on her body is completely different from that of ordinary souls... Very dangerous. 】

After Yakumo Zi saw Yuyuko, for some reason, she felt that she had the strength to stand up again.

Esara's arms broke out and walked up to Yuyuko step by step, tears already glistening in her eyes.

"Quiet... Yuyuko..."

“… Ahh

“… Yes... Wow... Ah...... "Just like a newborn baby, Yuyuko can only make some simple sounds, and she is still happy to do it, and gradually has the eyes of the gods to stare at the world curiously.

"She, what's wrong with her?" the girl thought that this guy's appearance was abnormal.

"......?" Yakumo couldn't tell what was going on, but this look... Yuyuko looked at her like she looked at a stranger...

"Quiet... Yuyuko?"

[She... It seems that the memory has been lost. Isara shook her head and stepped aside.

As if confirming Isara's words, Yuyuko began to open her mouth again in an incomprehensible manner, spitting out one simple syllable after another.

"How... How could this be?" Yakumo Zi suddenly felt that she had lost her strength, if it weren't for the girl's support even if she held her, she would have fallen to her knees at this time, and she had been muttering in disbelief, "How can this be?

……

Yuyuko is completely dead.

What should I do...?

The Westward Demon is sealed by Yuyuko's corpse, and breaking the seal will bring Yuyuko to death and her soul to perish.

From the very beginning, Yuyuko... It is impossible to be resurrected.

Yuyuko, who is completely dead---

……

Yuyuko, who is bound by the seal, cannot become a Buddha or be reborn even if she turns into a soul.

I can only stay in this world like this, wandering as an unintentional undead... Or, at the end of the road, the soul is scattered...

"Even death... Can't I free you from that pain... Yuyuko..."

“… There's a way. "Yakumo Purple thought of a way to die and live... Humans、And youkai,A way to be a complete enemy.。

For the sake of Yuyuko, I am willing to step into the path of Shura!

……

"Saga, thank you for your help these days. Yakumo Zi half stepped into the gap.

It took a few days for Yakumo to forcibly restore her body to its peak state, and the cost of this was incalculable.

"What I'm going to do next is to be completely hostile to humanity, and as a human being, there is no need for you to continue to follow me. Yakumo said to Saga.

"What the hell are you thinking? The girl rolled her eyes, but was a little worried, "Are you really sure you want to do this?"

"Of course. Yakumo nodded unquestioningly.

Yakumo Purple has set up a plan in the past few days, and Yuyuko, who is an undead, cannot always exist in the present world, and there will be a day when it will disappear.

And Yuyuko, who has the power of terrifying death, has a mind like a newborn baby.

The best thing to do is to return Yuyuko to the underworld. However, because of the seal, Yuyuko has become one with the Westbound Demon, so it is necessary to place the Westward Demon into the underworld to succeed.

Let me help you... After thinking about it for a while, the girl still didn't say it.

Yakumo's plan is very crazy, gather the power of the youkai, destroy the Saigyoji Temple, and use the flesh and blood of the mana monk to win the trust of the youkai. Then use the power of the realm to land on the moon and seize the artifact on the moon that has eternal power.

And those youkai who landed on the moon with Yakumo Purple are actually no different from cannon fodder.

The slaughter of Saigyoji Temple alone is enough to make humans regard Yakumo as the first enemy, and using the youkai as cannon fodder will also make Yakumo lose trust in the hearts of the youkai, which is a plan that is not pleasing to both sides.

"I'll do anything for Yuyuko's sake. Yakumo Zi's face did not have any hesitation or confusion.

“…… Hello for yourself. The girl closed her eyes, and when she opened them, there was no shadow of Yakumo Purple in front of her.

[Isn't it good to return to daily life? Isara's voice suddenly appeared in the girl's head, "We shouldn't have meddled in this in the first place. 】

"I know... Of course I do. The girl exhaled, "However, I always feel that if I don't do something, I will lose." ”

【Saga...】

"Huh?"

[If I die, will you be like Yakumo...] Isara's words stopped, [No, I don't want you to be like that. 】

"Ishara, don't ask such stupid questions. The girl's tone sank.

Two people have been together for hundreds of years, and there are some things that simply don't need words to answer.

One look, enough.
