Chapter 10: Punishment
To tell the truth, it is a very stupid thing to listen carefully to people talking about how a decaying ancient family can return to high society, or rather, the so-called "family" obsessing with the glory of their ancestors is itself a complete stupid performance, even if it is a complete layman, I dare to leave no stone unturned to say such things: When the power of capital sweeps the world, the "old school" people who cling to the small family and the small clan are already doomed to the fate of decline- A long, long time ago, any modern Western European country no longer had the natural right to speak as a "noble family", at least in this world, capital is the force that determines everything, and the beliefs, orthodoxy, family rights, and even the XX constitution, human rights treaties, etc., which are talked about by many people, are just a layer of disguise that can be replaced at any time - as a born magician, I really shouldn't be unprofessionally aware of these things.

Although I have always semi-jokingly emphasized my shabby little aristocratic origins, I have never paid attention to the old glory of the so-called Magtroyd familyβit is hard to say whether this kind of thing was once owned by my family, and as the last descendant of the family, I have no impression of my parents now, and I even suspect that I am an unrelated person who jumped out of the murals of the family mansion, so I have no so-called family concept except for a little consciousness of the little nobles and the reserve of a magician, I'm a loner.
So at this moment, hearing Konoe Reika babbling on and on about the noble rights that the Konoe family naturally possesses, I have no sympathy for the declining family other than a wave of absurdity and shame, and this damned family has committed acts that I cannot forgive.
It wasn't long before I was beheaded in the black suits that came to help, and Konoe Reika opened her mouth to explain the cause and effect to me, but the streets were really deserted, and there were no more reinforcements until she basically finished speaking, but I didn't pay much attention to the details, and my energy was about to reach its limit.
"Well, now you can kill me if you want, and then what? Continue to avenge the untouchable girl you just met? Then you're ready to kill all of Japan, hahaha! Yes, kill everyone, whether it's the ignorant and disgusting untouchables, or the excrement of the upper aristocratic lords who block others from approaching with the stench, cut off their heads, yes! Cut into 2,000 portions, the more the better, and sprinkle them into Tokyo Bay to feed the fish! β
Why did I suddenly feel that her previous aristocratic demeanor was all disguised?
"I said that there are too many people killed today, and it's not so easy for you to die, even if you are the most deserving one on the scene!" Silk threads wrapped around her limbs like a snake's body, "But you are right in a few words, there may be many more people who should be killed, but I can't take care of it, if Ah Miao's death is the result of the collective will, I may not be able to find the direction of investigation at all." β
Konoe Reika laughed again, "Aren't you able to easily kill dozens of people?" They are as fragile as tofu to you, and I foolishly thought that there would be no more powerful people in the world than Ah Da Ah Er, and I didn't expect them to turn into more ferocious tigers and jackals, but so what, it's not that you have easily divided into countless pieces, you! You are the demon from hell, there is anyone that the devil can't kill, and there is someone the devil doesn't dare to kill! The direction of pursuit? Does that matter? As long as it's the person concerned, you don't need to care about what to kill! What is collective will? That's a fart in the first place, and one person's voice becomes the collective will when no one dares to raise objections? What could be more ridiculous than that! β
"I remember you were planning to threaten me with your dad and the so-called collective power?"
"It's just cruel words, and I'm used to saying it for a long time."
"No, I guess your purpose is to pull a few more cushions to die with you, I didn't think it was just because the fear came too suddenly." I say.
"So what? Are you afraid? The devils of hell are afraid of fragile humans? Ha. β
"The interlocking constraints in the world are not as simple as you think, and I can't do anything that harms more ignorant but innocent people," I remember boasting to Miss Sakiya a long time ago about my knowledge: Gensokyo alone can catch a handful of terrifying characters that can destroy the planet, and the vast outside world naturally has no shortage of such characters, but the earth has survived healthily since ancient times, which is probably the result of some kind of constraint, and of course there may be larger factors at work, For example, the calamities and obstacles of the cultivators, but this is not something I can understand, and I am not going to explain to her that the so-called Hell Devil is just an ordinary and once cowardly magician puppeteer, I thought about it and decided to clarify another minor matter before I started, "Those two monsters, the Tiger Demon and the Jackal Demon, you don't know their true colors?" They were recruited by your family as thugs? β
"Why should I know? What kind of people are recruited by the club to be thugs, can the daughter of a mere parent put down her body and worry about it? β
She described herself very ambivalently, and I can't ignore it this time, she really seems to have a grudge against many things, even her father, who she used as a mantra to threaten others, but I have no mood or reason to care about it.
"You just rely on two youkai to sneak up on the rooftops to observe me and Miao's whereabouts and know where to go, right? Then an ambush was laid at the exit of the street. β
"If someone hadn't reported back to the mysterious person for taking away the target that we could easily play with, why should we let Ah Da Ah Er use his real skills to deal with her, a pariah......" She glared at me again, "But you are the one who really has the ability!" β
"You used the strength of more than twenty people to assassinate a girl who didn't pose any threat," I felt irrepressible again, "and you, take this as a hunt for fun." β
"That's right! You want to kill me, don't you? Not only that, but you still have a lot of people to kill, those people are as fragile as me, and these waste thugs are more arrogant and decisive than me, you can easily kill many, many people, including the so-called **, including the senior bureaucrats of the National Police Agency, and even bigger bigwigs! "It seems that she is thinking not only of pulling a few backs, but also of some attempts to provoke chaos in the world, and I think it is a waste of time to communicate with her.
"I'll find out more clearly about things related to Ah Miao in my own way, and you don't have to say more nonsense, I decided not to kill you, but don't try to escape by punishing you accordingly."
"What? Planning to send me to the police? I'm not afraid to tell you honestly, I didn't kill anyone, I didn't disturb social order, and I was a minor, and the law was my umbrella! β
"The law? Hey, do you think I'm like a person who knows the law? I scoffed, "Add the juvenile factor, and you have a good idea of what you are guilty of!" What did you say at the beginning? Break this woman's limbs? This is a beautiful suggestion, I will let you say goodbye to your legs and hands from today onwards," continued to pronounce the sentence in a calm tone, "Of course, there are people in your family who have money and methods, and the severed limbs may be able to be connected, so I will continue to grind the severed limbs into minced pieces, anyway, you don't have to worry about no one taking care of you for the rest of your life." "I think my tone and demeanor and what I'm saying are incomparably bad, and being in Gensokyo is enough to paralyze half of the elves - the other half may not understand what I'm saying.
Her pupils contracted instantly, "No, don't!" You can't do this to me! Kill me! You should have killed me! I'm the one who killed your untouchable friend! Kill me! β
Raising her hand, she opened her ten fingers in front of her eyes, and then slowly held them into her palms, blood beads gradually seeped from the roots of Konoe Reika's arms and legs, and her panic and screams gradually reached their climax, but I didn't think what I saw in front of me was comforting, and doing so could not save Miao's life.
