"Wu Ye, do you really think so? Can humans and youkai live in peace? ”

Although the time she spent with Yuko was only one day, Wu Ye was still sure that she was at this moment, and there was no room for ambiguity in her eyes.

"Yes."

Similarly, in the face of such a Yuzi, Wu also used unprecedented seriousness.

"Really?"

Yuko, who received the answer, did not seem satisfied, she was silent for a while, and asked the same question again: "I'll ask you again, Takeya, do you really think so?" ”

“......”

It's ridiculous that Takeya, who has the power of a monster, was actually overwhelmed by Yuko, who was just a human, in terms of momentum.

Probably that is the serious Yuko, although it is not a little worse than Wu in terms of strength, but he can say that such Yuko is very powerful.

But what he said couldn't be taken back, and Wu Ye had no intention of taking it back.

"Yes." Takeshi gave the same answer firmly.

"It doesn't seem like a joke, Takeya, heroes don't say such things, human attitudes towards youkai are not as peaceful as you think." Yuko's low tone seemed like a precursor to a storm.

"I'm not going to be a hero in the first place, that's what the people closest to me say to me." Smiling self-deprecatingly, Takeya explained, "I'm just coming up with an idea on a feasible basis. ”

"Do you think it's possible for youkai and humans to live in peace?"

"It's possible."

"Why are you so sure?"

"You may not believe it, but I've seen it with my own eyes," Takeya said, pointing to his eyes, "I've seen a peaceful world where humans and youkai coexist. ”

After listening to Takeya's words, Yuko looked at him fixedly for a long time and said, "I believe in you, because this is the only way to explain the temperament in your body that is incompatible with us, and if you are from such a place, it makes sense." ”

“...... Thank you. "To be honest, Wu Ye himself didn't feel it, it turned out that as a modern person, he was still quite different from Yuko in temperament.

"But I also have my doubts," Yuko asked in a tone that looked Takeya in the eye, "Why do you want to say it?" ”

"What do you mean?"

"Why, to say these words, why are you saying these things to me? You can stay out of it. The last sentence Yuko said almost word for word.

After setting up Qingming, the mask had already been taken off by Takeya, so his expression was all looked at by Yuko, with her acumen, the horror can't even hide the slightest bit of falsehood, right?

But it doesn't matter, Takeshi never intended to lie, at least for now.

He took a deep breath and said, "Because, I have a reason why I have to do it." ”

"What reason."

"That's ......"

Why did he trust Yuko so much, Takeya himself didn't know, and he had to tell the other party his true purpose, and this thought made his suppressed heart seem to get a chance to breathe.

Reimu and Sakiya, in order to solve their crisis, Takeya will follow Yakumo's advice and go to the moon.

And it is also to change the tragic fate of the Hakurei witch, and the agreement with Remilia, in order to save the seriously injured Sakiya, he will obey the arrangement of the previous shrine maiden and go to this era.

And now, he's finally found what he's supposed to do.

If Sakiya's injury is related to the mutation caused by the previous shrine maiden, then in order to save Sakiya, the first thing to do is to solve the mutation caused by the ancestor shrine maiden.

And the purpose of the previous generation of shrine maidens to cause mutations is also very simple, that is, to solve the tragic fate of the Hakuri shrine maiden, which is consistent with Takeya's thoughts.

The tragic fate of the Hiroki Shrine Maiden comes from Gensokyo itself, and the continued existence of Gensokyo must sacrifice the Hiroshi Shrine Maiden, and the one who wants to save the Hiroshi Shrine Maiden must attack the entire Gensokyo, but the Hiroshi Shrine Maiden herself is the guardian of Gensokyo.

This is an unsolvable cycle of death, and after a thousand years, no matter how hard Takeshi tries, it will be useless, I'm afraid this is the reason why the previous shrine maiden said that the way to save Reimu was in this era, right?

Youkai have not yet disappeared from human society, and Gensokyo has not even been established!

The source of the tragic fate of the Hakurei shrine maiden is the establishment of Gensokyo, and as long as Takeya can work hard from this point, all the tragedies will not happen again.

That's right, this must be what the previous shrine maiden said, restore the trajectory of the world to the way it should be!

If all the youkai were retired, then Gensokyo wouldn't exist, but if the yokai ate all the humans, then there would be no need to establish Gensokyo.

So, the first thing he has to do is to end this war! And it must be guaranteed that both sides of the war can survive after the war is over!

"Save your friends, save your family."

Takeya responded to Yuko's question with a firm gaze: "I'm here to save my friends and family, if the reason is enough, right?" ”

"Yes, if it's for friends and family, Takeya, you can't do anything wrong, but do you really understand? The current situation? ”

Yuko frowned, and her low tone seemed to be admonishing: "No one will understand you, no one will approve of the path you choose, no one will follow you, and even they will regard you as an enemy, even so, don't you regret it?" ”

"I don't regret it, I have to."

Saying that, Wu Ye solemnly bowed his head to Yuko, and said sincerely: "Yuko, thank you very much for your willingness to take me in, if there is still a chance, I will definitely return the favor to you." ”

After saying that, Takeya was ready to leave, not to leave the room, but to leave Kyoto, because Yuko was also his friend, so he didn't want to bother the other party.

The biggest trouble with this plan is to make the overwhelmingly dominant youkai side take the initiative to back down, or even withdraw from this land, which is almost impossible to think about.

But Wu also had no choice, and now he could only go to the monster side to take a look, Yakumo Purple was his last hope, and the only hope, because only her power to manipulate the realm was the key to establishing Gensokyo.

And just as Takeya was about to leave, Yuko suddenly shouted to him: "Wait." ”

"What else?" Wu also stopped in confusion.

"Now, Wu Ye, you just said it, do you want to give me back the favor?" Yuko's expression seemed to return to her usual playful state, but those unusually bright eyes made Takeya unable to take his eyes off.

Wu also said hesitantly: "I...... That's right. ”

"Then you don't have to wait for later, you can do it now."

"Now?" Takeya looked at Yuko strangely, not understanding what she meant.

I saw Yuko smiling extremely happily, stepped forward and forcibly pulled Wu Ye back to his position, and said after pressing him to sit down: "Don't worry, it's not something to embarrass you, it's just that I just heard your story, so now I'll let you listen to my story." ”

Without waiting for Takeshi to agree, Yuko had already said to herself: "You asked me last time, right?" Why did I, as a human being, the daughter of the westward, take a monster court master with me and hide my identity for him? ”

Takeya nodded, hummed and continued to listen to Yuko, "Because I saved his life, he decided to repay me with a lifetime. ”

"Just, it's that simple?" Wu was also stunned, vaguely feeling that something was wrong.

"Yes, it's that simple, the idea of the monster is very rigid, so he won't change his mind anyway."

As she spoke, Yuko's smile slowly showed a look of reminiscence: "It was three years ago, I encountered a seriously injured youji, and at first I didn't find out that he was a youkai, but when I took him back to prepare to treat him, I found out that human healing methods didn't work for him." ”

"That's it," Takeya's eyes lit up, and he finally realized that something was wrong: "What is necessary to treat the injuries of youkai is demonic power, and the seriously injured youji have no way to transform demonic power, and Yuko, you, are human." ”

"That's right, as a human being, I can't cure the monster, so I can only ask a friend of mine." Yuko said, and the memories of that friend seemed to come to her mind, and the corners of her mouth were full of happiness.

Wu also tried to guess: "Then, that friend of yours, cured the demon jealousy, right?" ”

"That's right."

"Then if I guessed correctly, that friend of yours is also a youkai, right?"

"That's right," Yuuko nodded, and said slowly with a smile, "She's my childhood sweetheart who has been playing since I was a child, and even more time with me than my father, who is not at home all the year round." ”

Yuko's expression made Takeya feel familiar, and yes, Marisa had this expression when she talked about Reimu.

"You must be good friends, right?" Wu Ye smiled and asked, "What about her?" Didn't come to Kyoto with you? With your identity, it's not difficult to hide the existence of one more youkai, right? ”

Yuko explained embarrassedly: "That's true, but she's not like a monster, free and unfettered, probably because of a well-known relationship, it's not convenient for her to come to see me now." ”

"Is it famous? Could it be a big monster? ”

"Yes, speaking of which, she is also a special existence among the monsters, Wu Ye, you may not have seen her, but you should have heard of her, I don't know very well, I only know that the monsters call her the monster sage."

“......”

Youkai Sage, hearing this title, Wu Ye suddenly felt that maybe all the determination he had just made would soon turn into a joke, because Yuko was playing a joke with her, and it was a big, big, big-

Big joke.

"Ah, cough cough, Yuko, let me confirm a little, this youkai friend you are talking about, shouldn't it be surnamed Yakumo, right? Blonde hair with a fox-like god, and tail hair that looks warm? ”

"Huh? Takeya, you won't really see her, will you? I remember saying that she rarely sees outsiders," Yuko looked at Takeya in surprise and said to him with a stomachache on her face, "You guessed it, her surname is Yakumo, her name is Purple, and she is my best friend." ”
