Chapter 20: The Council of the Sages
[[[CP|W:1068|H:628|A:C]]] The so-called sage meeting is an illegal assembly of a group of idle big monsters who gather together because they are too bored every day, and every time they will gag something extremely boring, and then nothing happens after the tension is over...... That's right, these big monsters will only quarrel with each other, so they won't fight for the bottom down.
Everyone's mind is very clear that in the current situation of social resources gradually decreasing, what they need to do is to keep their existing and immediate situation.
Of course, these people are originally short-sighted guys, and Merry doesn't expect them to make any wise moves, as long as they don't have to be mentally retarded to the point of dragging themselves back......
It's a pity that Melly found out that she was wrong, these guys are really coming to drag their feet, and people can't help but want to kill them!
However, Hakuri still has to participate in the sage meeting, so this time, Melly didn't think much about it, and just did the same as before.
In front of others, everyone will call her by the name of Yakumo Purple, which is also her title as a monster sage.
The Yokai Sage Council is actually held in the main house of the yokai.,Speaking of which,Just like Kyoto as the capital,The yokai also have their own city.,Although it's relatively secret.,But it's a real demon capital.,Countless yokai gather there.,There's the base camp of the yokai.ć
And where Melly needs to be, that is, there.
It's not the first time she's gone with Hiroshi, and even though it's still boring to discuss things every time, she doesn't really want to go at all.
But I still have to go...... Hey, life nineteen is unsatisfactory, that's what I'm talking about.
Melly didn't mind those little things, if she really wanted to make a comparison, she wouldn't be like this because she wanted to.
In the demon capital, there are basically no human beings.
The reason why I use it in basic terms is because for youkai, humans are a commodity.
Humans are a kind of object that can be traded, because in the eyes of the monsters, humans are equivalent to food, and they are an inexhaustible kind, and the humans caught are very popular, especially the younger women, and belong to the kind of flesh and blood that everyone loves.
Compared to men, women's skin is more delicate and more loved by yokai, of course, it is not excluded that some yokai prefer the flesh of men or old people.
After all, the taste is different.
Such a situation not only makes this demon look smoky, but also a little bloody and violent, looking at the frightened men and women being held in cages.
Their fate is basically doomed.
Merry and Hakuri have been here a lot, but the more they come, the more they feel that the so-called yokai sages probably haven't really thought about the yokai, and at the same time, they haven't seriously considered Merry and Hakurei's opinions, which is the so-called concept of self-centeredness.
This time, Melly swore that if it was still that boring, she would definitely impress that bastard a little.
However, this is also the case, Merry and Hakuri, in the midst of this noisy noise, enter the Youkai's Council Hall, a place called the Sage Hall.
"Ah, are you coming?" At the foot of the dark road were bluestone bricks, and after a while Merry and Bori were in the main hall, each sage had his own special passage, and no one else would bump into it in the passage, only in the middle would they meet each other.
The sage's retinue cannot be present in the main hall, but will generally be on standby in the passageway, not far from the main hall.
So Bori won't come out, but at this distance, if you want to do it, it's still very simple.
"Well, have you all arrived?" Melly also asked, and then sat in her place casually, in fact, she was not blind, and she could see that she was already crowded.
"Well, let's get started." However, the one who was the chief didn't seem to mind Mei Li's contemptuous attitude, but said to himself, "Then what I'm going to talk about this time is a matter that has a profound impact on our entire demon country. ā
Oh, this statement made Melly a little intrigued, it should be said, she was already interested in those powerful stories and legends.
"Heh, what kind of unknown powerful monster, boss, can you find something more interesting?"
"I'm serious, this time the youkai is very strong, and I will easily lose the confrontation with her." The youkai sage led by the leader is also the current speaker of the sage council, and a man whose strength is still above Merry...... Or rather, banshee.
If he can use this kind of vocabulary to characterize the strength of the other party, then it proves that the opponent is indeed a very powerful person who is difficult to deal with.
It's not easy to deal with, and that's a very interesting meaning, especially from a qualitative point of view.
"What?"
He said that his defeat surprised the sages.
They all knew very well how strong the power of this great sage was.
Therefore, his defeat in many senses means how powerful the other party's monster is.
"You're saying you're not an opponent at all?" Ibaraki Hua asked in a daze, she seemed to be a little surprised by this matter.
Cui Xiang can admit that she may not be sure to win the monster in front of her, but this monster actually said that she is not an opponent at all...... Looking at his decadent appearance, it seems that it is not just not as simple as not being an opponent...... Even, the defeat is very ugly.
"Well, it's almost useless...... I was knocked out from the front by a light yƬ. It was surprising that the leader had such a decadent expression here, "whether it is in strength or anything else...... I can't even do harm to her......"
There was silence.
This is not a joke, why did such a strong monster and such a terrifying strength suddenly appear.
A yokai of this strength should be world-famous, and it is even strange why it appears in this part of Japan...... It's incredible.
"Strange...... "Melly," said Melly, too, here, "is there anything to tell us about?" ā
"Lady Yakumo, you're the wisest of us." The leader of the sages looked at Merry, paused for a moment, and then said, "This time, the location where that monster appeared is at the junction of the territories of the two of us, the place where the sea of flowers is blooming, you can go and take a look." ā
ā¦ā¦
This is indeed a tempting proposal for Melly.
"Okay, everyone, I just want to discuss the solution together, maybe we will go together and see if we can take care of each other." The Great Sage said very seriously, "I hope you can seriously consider it. ā
āā¦ā¦ā
For a while, no one took a stand.
The attitude of the monsters is very selfish.,Unless it's a good relationship in private.,Otherwise,I'm afraid other people don't care much about that kind of thing happening.ć
Self-care, there is no sense of community, this council, to put it bluntly, is a place to exchange information with each other, really expect other sages to do anything for you, it is still unreliable, Melly looked at the other people, snorted coldly, and then said: "I'll go and see first, and then we'll make a conclusion, how." ā
The answer of "......" is obviously not what the great sage wants, but he has no choice, and he does not have any absolute binding force on the sages present, these people are all the types who do their own thing and do whatever they want, at this time, there is no way.
"Okay."
"I agree."
"I don't have a problem either."
The other sages expressed their positions one after another, and Hua Fan and they were more in the same way as Mei Li and the others, so of course they would not object at this time.
The enemies that the ghosts are facing now are more enemies, and to be honest, the sheer size of the human Onmyoji is also a threat to the ghosts, and the battle has become difficult and interesting, even if she has this intention, but the other demons are probably not willing to take the time.
I can't stand them anymore.
"Well, let's adjourn."
Although the answer received was rather regrettable, this time, His Excellency did not seem to intend to delve into this issue.
As long as someone is willing to take a look, then they will definitely come to the same conclusion.
This time's opponent is not a guy who can be defeated by casual play, if she doesn't concentrate all the forces that can be concentrated now to fight together for the most important life-and-death battle, then in the future, there will be absolutely no one in this land who will be her opponent.
This is the conclusion made by this great sage, and it is also the most correct judgment in his opinion.
Moreover, the person who went to execute it this time was that Yakumo Murasaki.
Although she is usually very casual and does not pay much attention to the activities here, no sage dares to underestimate it, this big monster who can understand anyone's heart, and is wise can definitely do countless things that other people can't understand.
Of course, Melly doesn't quite know what this guy thinks of herself, and that's none of her business.
As the sound of the meeting fell, she naturally stood up, and after glancing at the fan, Melly nodded, and then walked into the private passage where she was.
Hua Fan made a simple hint to herself, and Mei Li understood, which meant: Hua Fan hopes to meet outside the demon capital afterwards and can talk.
Is it ...... Whether it's looking for yourself or looking for Bori, I don't know.
