Chapter Seventy-Nine: Ascending the Dragon Sparrow
At this time, Uesugi Kiyoshi in the dream mirror is a spirit.
Shingo Narumi's voice suddenly sounded from the bottom of his heart.
"Uesugi, are you a little embarrassed?"
"It seems that the Flame of the Ghost King is still almost hot against the sea beasts?"
"It's okay, since I've decided to work for you, then... That's where I can help! ”
"Pick it up! This sword! ”
After saying this, in reality, the glittering sea country disappeared in a flash, and suddenly appeared in front of Uesugi Kiyoshi.
Uesugi Kiyoshi stared, cut the spider in his left hand backwards, and was held firmly by the dry ghost hand, and then reached out and held the sea country saku, which was not light.
While holding this sword, an indescribable coolness began from the center of the eyebrows and spread throughout the body.
At this moment, his body sank and stepped on the water.
If you walk on the ground, there is no sense of disobedience at all.
The rhythm of the water and the flow of the sea are all in my heart.
"Water" has become incomparably close to him, just as a human can talk and walk, he can also command the water to flow and set off huge waves.
The sea kingdom made a lead, and the huge waves rushed away, and the huge nine-headed sea beast was beaten to a standstill, and it stopped for half a minute.
“... This is, the power of the Lord of Arakawa? ”
"Yes! At least now, the factor of geographical location can't limit me! ”
"And the power to control the waves..."
"Blend into the sword and try it!"
Sideways, retreat, bend, bow, hold the sword.
The boy in his right hand cuts, the left hand is made by Hai Guo, and the ghost hand behind him cuts a spider in his hand.
Three swords bloomed with a cold glow.
The movements of the dog god and Uesugi Kiyoshi were synchronized, and they also put on a sword posture that was ready to attack.
What is amazing is that behind the body of the dog god, a huge ghost hand appeared out of thin air for some reason, and the sword in the hand of the dog god is exactly the same as the sword in the hand of Uesugi Kiyoshi.
Uesugi Kiyoshi's power, through the transcendent weapon in his hand, was completely projected onto the body of the dog god.
The next step is to "unleash" this power.
Closing his eyes for a moment, a tall figure of a samurai with the head of a dog flashed in his mind.
It was a dream that used to be Uesugi Kiyoshi.
A dream about the dog god.
He took "slashing evil" as his criterion.
He fought with the mountains of corpses and the sea of blood, he was the enemy of the evil of demons, the evil of mankind, and the evil of all the ways in his way.
Gradually, he lost his eyes to the blood of the killing.
He is notorious and is known as a murderer, a ruthless demon.
Ruthless, cruel, living in blood, living in killing, living in loneliness.
Fight for a living, kill evil for food, muddy nightmares, and live a lifetime.
Perhaps, the trajectory of his fate will be like this.
Finally, one day, after a bloody fight, when he was lying on the ground licking his wounds weakly, he encountered a "singularity" that changed his fate.
It was a sparrow, stepping on his shoulder, struggling with its beak to smooth out the blood-stained fluff and the gravel of his wounds.
Maybe it's the flash of inspiration from a serious injury and dying, or maybe it's the last glimmer of clarity before the soul returns to the underworld.
He suddenly felt that this chirping sparrow was not so annoying, and in the last part of his life, being accompanied, even if it was a bird, made him talk and comfort.
Probably because of the strong vitality of being a dog god monster, or maybe it was the belief in his heart that made him support it.
In the end, Inugami survived.
He did not die by the sword.
Since then, though, with an extra chirping sparrow on his shoulder, he built a wooden house in which the sparrow lived like a home.
For him, this sparrow should be... Mascot?
With the heavy Inuyashiki on his back, Inugami felt for the first time that there was something else in his life besides killing.
For example, the little sparrow who has always been inseparable from him.
Since then, his character has gradually converged, and his desire to kill is not so strong, although he will still kill the evil of injustice, but for those innocent little monsters or innocent people who are involved, he can also be let go at will.
Because when he draws his knife, the sparrow will always chirp and scream, as if in protest, and only after the knife is retracted, will it be quiet.
In this way, the dog god spent a period of stable and stable life compared to the previous life.
Until one day, the sparrow died.
It is not a demon, just an ordinary sparrow, birth, old age, sickness and death, which is an irresistible law of nature for it.
The dog god buried the finch silently, but the inuyashiki, which was its home, never gave up, but kept carrying it.
Even if there is no family in the wooden house, he still carries this wooden house on his back, because he regards it as a home, finds a belonging, and finds his true "self".
He suddenly came to his senses.
The sword is not waved for killing, but for "guarding".
If there is no existence in this world worthy of your protection, then no matter how sharp the sword is, no matter how much evil it destroys, it will have no meaning.
This sword, henceforth, will be wielded for the purpose of "protecting".
Over the years, the dog god who carried the dog house on his back traveled all over the mountains and rivers, experienced many things, and protected many people and demons who should not have died.
For this kind of life, he has long been accustomed to it, even if what he gets in the end is a frightened and distant look, he will not mind, he will take action when he should save people.
In this world, there is always something worth protecting.
For some reason, one day, Inugami came to a mountain stream under a tree, sat down on a stone, wiped his sword, held a pipe in his mouth, and looked like a middle-aged human uncle, with an ancient face.
He came back here.
This is the place where he buried the "finch".
But before he finished polishing his sword, a familiar chirping sound suddenly appeared in his ears.
Looking back in disbelief, he saw a familiar sparrow in Inuyashiki.
The sparrow chirped until he put away his sword, then closed his mouth, and lay down quietly, combing his feathers.
Its whole body glows, and it is definitely not an ordinary life.
Is it a demon? Or reincarnation? Or will the soul return to the world after death?
Inugami didn't know, but he knew that if the finch could come back, there must be a firm and unshakable faith.
Probably... Protect him...
Laughing deeply, he spat out a smoke ring.
Inexplicable emotions rose in his chest, and the body of the dog god suddenly felt extremely relaxed.
The beginning of becoming a god is the belief of "protection" and "protection".
And this finch is the beginning of saving him, and it is also the first step for him to ascend to God.
Countless feelings surged in his chest, and with the unchanging heart of slashing evil, he finally condensed into a sword.
The finch groans, the dog moves, the sword comes out, the villains are killed, and the dragon bows its head.
Cut off the evil that should be killed, and protect the person who should be protected.
The scroll of the dog god, the secret meaning, the lifelong belief of the poor dog god slashed out a sword.
"Climb the dragon sparrow!"
