Chapter 111: A Fork in the Road of History

It's really nice to finally get a piece of the Y-Fragment of the Four Souls, and it's on a monster that is in danger of a human being, but what about the rest of it!

The youkai were killed by Inuyasha, the Y- of the Four Souls was also put away by Kagome, and the soldiers in the castle who were bewitched by the witchcraft M- also slowly woke up, and then, under the leadership of some old retainers, surrounded the palace where Inuyasha was located!

"Ahh What to do, we are surrounded! ”

The joy of getting the Y-Fragment of the Four Souls had not completely dissipated, and when this kind of thing happened, Kagome hid behind Inuyasha with some fear. As for the beautiful Princess Ruki, she also came to Inuyasha and them under the escort of her childhood sweetheart, and in the face of such a large number of soldiers, only Inuyasha could deal with them.

"Who are you, why did you suddenly break into our palace, and that ......"

An old minister with gray hair and a cane walked out of the crowd under the escort of a group of officials, and when he saw the torn clothes of the lord on the ground, he coughed and asked in a low voice.

"Your initiative has been possessed by youkai, and we are here to destroy youkai and save Princess Luki!"

In front of Ruki, Nobunaga gave a rare and insightful explanation. However, in the absence of evidence, this explanation can only add fuel to the fire.

"Why should we believe your words, do you say that the lord is possessed by a monster? Moreover, you should be the son of Princess Jiayong, right, how do you know that our lord is possessed by a monster, and moreover, he came to save Princess Luki! ”

It seems that the old man who is very authoritative does not believe Nobunaga's words so lightly, especially since the other party is actually coming for Princess Luki, so the motive of this group of people to kill the lord is even more suspicious!

"Yes, I think you framed our lord for the sake of Princess Luki!"

"I actually went along with the monsters, killed them, and avenged the lord!"

"Yes, they must not be spared!"

"Ahh......h Isn't this stupid guy even more misunderstood when he says something like that! ”

Kagome covered her face and said in confusion, she was actually a little expectant of this guy just now, is it still like this! Even Ruhime, who was originally happy to see her childhood sweetheart, was full of disappointment in Nobunaga's face. In the past, I fell into the pond and slipped on horse manure, which can be said to have added a lot of fun to my childhood. But at this time, Nobunaga is still like this, which is really disappointing for her!

"Princess Ruki, don't worry, Inuyasha will definitely protect us, right, Inuyasha!"

Kagome saw the sadness on Luki's face and pulled her to her side sympathetically. If you compare the weak and incompetent Nobunaga with the brave and responsible Inuyasha, you can see the gap between the two. Hey, don't say that Kagome has already seen that Nobunaga is just having unrequited love for Princess Ruki, even if it isn't, if Princess Ruki really follows Nobunaga, she is a little skeptical that he can really protect Princess Ruki, maybe even eating will be a problem!

Kagome gently comforted Princess Ruki, who looked about the same age as herself, and looked at Inuyasha's back proudly, only a man like Inuyasha could truly protect his NV people from any bullying.

"Of course, don't worry, I will definitely protect you and not let you get hurt at all!"

Looking at Luki's timid and gentle gaze at her, Inuyasha felt as if her heart had been touched by something soft, and she gave a firm look back and returned loudly.

"Yes, Princess Luki, I'll protect you too, ah......"

Nobunaga seemed to be infected by Inuyasha's words, and excitedly pulled out his sword, which was almost used for decoration, from his waist, and brandished it towards the old man below the hallway.

Then, with one foot in the air, his body fell down heavily, and rolled in front of the old man, his eyes rolling in circles, and he fainted.

Stupid (*n)!

This is the common sentiment of everyone, including Princess Luki.

"It's really troublesome, I don't want to kill people! Kagome, Luki, grab my back, and we're gone! ”

Inuyasha, who is afraid of trouble, decides to ignore Nobunaga's stupidity and leaves with Kagome and Princess Luki first! Anyway, looking at him like this, the other party will not think that this kind of stupid person can kill that lord.

"Inuyasha, that's not good, throw down Nobunaga!"

"Inuyasha-sama, although Nobunaga is very stupid, but he came here to save me after all, Ruki begs you to save his life, whatever you want Ruki to do, please save him!"

Not only Kagome, but also Luki knelt down in front of Inuyasha, her hands folded on the floor in front of her, her head buried deeply, and she pleaded with a big gift.

"You're willing to do anything for that idiot, do you like him?"

Inuyasha looked at Ruki, who was as weak as a puddle of water that could melt at any moment, and asked in confusion. Willing to do anything for the sake of a stupid person, then this Luki is too stupid!

"No, it's not like that, I've always thought of him as my brother! Never had that idea. Although my father sent me here for the purpose of marrying the lord. But the lord became like that on the first day before he entered the room! Maybe it's my fault, that's why it's what it is today, so ......"

Luki shook her head, stating her thoughts bit by bit. She actually blamed herself for the fact that the lord was eaten by a monster, and that Nobunaga came to save her and led her to be arrested.

It's the first time I've encountered such a weak NV child! Weak, but brave! Inuyasha, whose heart is like steel, can't help but soften a little. Of course, he could see that this princess was not only as simple as a blank sheet of paper, but also her body was pure and immaculate, and it seemed that the day she had just passed, the lord had not even had a chance to touch her, and she had already been devoured by the monster.

As an NV person in this era, it's really sad!

"So you want to take this responsibility yourself! Interesting, maybe you're a dumber fool than that Nobunaga! But I don't hate this kind of stupidity! ”

Inuyasha crouched down, grabbed Luki by the shoulders, lifted her head, stared into her clear eyes, and replied.

"I've changed my mind, if you don't want to die, you'd better let that guy go, or ......"

After helping Princess Ruki up, Inuyasha turned to face the old man in the lead, showed his right paw, and swung towards the empty house on the right.

"Soul Scattering Iron Claw!"

Thundered......

Three huge wind blades roared from the air torn by Inuyasha and flew towards the empty house, tearing it to pieces in an instant, and three huge ravines were also drawn in the part where it connected to the ground, and the soldiers who watched were shocked, and all of them retreated several times.

"Please wait!"

However, what was surprising was that the old man saw Inuyasha's might, and he was not surprised, and walked around the unconscious Nobunaga on crutches, and came to the front of the corridor where Inuyasha and the others were standing, and carefully looked at Inuyasha's appearance in the dim firelight, and said in surprise:

"This look, this move, and that name! Don't...... Could it really be Inuyasha-sama! ”

"You know me, I see, looking at your appearance, you should have lived for more than sixty years, and it's not strange to know about me!"

Looking at the reaction of this strange old man, Inuyasha was very strange at first, and only after listening to his words did he come back to his senses.

"I'm sixty-one years old! Of course, I know your name, Inuyasha-sama, although I did hear rumors of your resurrection not long ago, but I didn't expect it to be true! Maybe you've forgotten about it, I'm Yoshiyuki Nitta, a retainer of the previous generation of old lords, Masato Uesugi, and I was lucky enough to see Inuyasha-sama and Kikyo-sama's demeanor! ”

The old man who called himself Yoshiyuki Nitta seemed very happy that Inuyasha was able to understand it so quickly. He was only eleven years old at the time, and he just glanced at Inuyasha and Kikyo from a distance! However, it was that glance that made him completely remember the two witch NV Kikyo who had guarded Musashi Province and killed countless demons and monsters, as well as the half-demon Inuyasha who guarded her!

"Masatsu Usugi?"

Inuyasha recalled, and it seemed that he had vaguely heard the name, but he didn't seem to be very impressed.

"It's when you and Kikyo-sama are alive, the lord of Musashi Province and the ruler of the Kanto Territory!"

Yoshiyuki Nitta reminded him heartily.

"Oh, it's that guy!"

Inuyasha remembered the steward-sama who begged him and Kikyo to be the elders of their family! The Uesugi clan is a famous Musashi country in the Kanto region, and it's just a piece of their territory! When I first learned about the rumors of him and Kikyo, the patriarch of the Uesugi clan, that is, Uesugi Masada, once invited him and Kikyo, but at that time Inuyasha and Kikyo bluntly refused!

Since you are the one who knows yourself, then you don't have to fight!

Inuyasha retracted his paws and said to Kagome and Luki behind him.

"It's okay anymore, since this old man knows me, then he shouldn't do anything stupid!"

As he spoke, Inuyasha also deliberately glanced at Nobunaga, who was not yet awake.

"Everyone put away their weapons, this is Inuyasha-sama who guarded our Musashi Province from war and yokai invasion with Kikyo-sama fifty years ago, what he said is absolutely true, our lord has already been eaten by youkai! I'll discuss the next thing with Inuyasha-sama! Go back, all of you! ”

"Yes!"

Even when the lord is here, Nitta Yoshiyuki's prestige will far surpass him, not to mention that the lord is dead now! Moreover, the reputation of Inuyasha, who live in Musashi Province, has heard of it. That's the legendary patronus who has always guarded them.

Yoshiyuki Nitta took the lead and led Inuyasha and them to the council chamber of the palace, and as for Nobunaga, he was subconsciously forgotten by everyone! Including Luki, who was still pleading for him just now.

"Okay, now that we're here, it's time to talk about something!"

Inuyasha, who came to the council chamber after Yoshishi Shinta, found a futon to make it, and Kagome and Luki subconsciously sat on his left and right.

"First of all, congratulations on your resurrection, this iǎ sister should be the reincarnation of the legendary Kikyo Adult! Sure enough, it looks exactly like Kikyo-sama! ”

At this time, Yoshiyuki Nitta seemed to be a little hesitant again, and he talked about him left and right. It's a pity that Inuyasha, who has long been impatient, directly blocked his nagging back with a word.

"Without further ado, what's the matter?"

"Well, I would like to ask you to inherit the position of lord of Musashi Ichikoku!"

Yoshiyuki Nitta straightened his clothes, bowed down in front of Inuyasha, and said solemnly.

"What! Let Inuyasha become a daimyo! ”

Hearing that Yoshiyuki Nitta actually wanted Inuyasha to inherit the daimyo position, Kagome jumped in shock. On the other side, Luki was also startled, holding her hands on Inuyasha's body, her weak posture was extremely pitiful, evoking Inuyasha's strong man's vanity, and she actually ignored Kagome's presence, boldly hugged Luki's delicate and boneless body, and gently patted her shoulder to comfort her. Then he sniffed the fragrance coming from Ruki's hair and looked at Yoshichi Nitta.

"Old man, you're not joking, this is the territory of the Uesugi clan, even if the lord dies, you can still call another member of the Uesugi clan!"

"But at present, in addition to the patriarch Uesugi Kenmasa who has fled, the last member of the Uesugi clan is the lord who has been devoured by youkai!"

Yoshiyuki Nitta laughed bitterly and explained helplessly.

"Oh, I see!"

Kagome, who stood up in surprise at this time, heard the familiar name of Uesugi Kenmasa, and finally remembered the things recorded in the history books she had read before she came.

"What do you know?"

Inuyasha asked, his hand still not moving away from Luki's body, but rather hugging it tighter. This feeling of being attached to a weak NV child seeking protection, both physically and psychologically, makes Inuyasha feel very comfortable.

"I've read in books that after the establishment of the Muromachi shogunate, it was under the control of the Kanto Governor. By the time of the Warring States period, the Uesugi clan's dominance weakened, and the Sagami Go-Hojo clan took the opportunity to incorporate Musashi into their territory. The Hojo clan Yasu, who invaded Musashi by Sagami, defeated the Ogiya Uesugi clan in the Battle of Kawagoe at night, and in 1552, he pursued and released the Kanto governor Uesugi Kenmasa, drawing a end to the history of the Kanto administration's domination of Musashi. That's what's happening right now! ”

Kagome leaned into Inuyasha's ear and whispered the news she had received from the history books. However, then, she saw Inuyasha tightly hugging the body of Princess Luki, who even she couldn't help but pity, and the groping hand was still gently caressing there.

"What are you doing!"

A series of green veins erupted from Kagome's head.

"Ah, it's just that Luki is too scared, I'll comfort her! There are outsiders here, don't be so rude! ”

Inuyasha glanced at Ruki, who had shyly buried her face in her shoulder, and explained righteously, while raising her chin and motioning for Kagome to pay attention to her current situation.

(Damn, I'll teach you a lesson later!) )

Glancing at Yoshiyuki Nitta, who had closed his eyes in amusement, Kagome returned to her seat dissatisfied, and reached under Inuyasha's ass and twisted it violently. However, this trick for modern boys is not bad for a thick-skinned Inuyasha as a massage.

Inuyasha ignored the angry Kagome, looked at Yoshiyuki Nitta, and gave his own answer, or decision!

"It's impossible for me to inherit this daimyo, but I can let Luki become the new lord in my name!"

History, at this moment, has embarked on another fork in the road! A
