Chapter 32: For Glory

Fate is like a big hand in the shadows, irritating people's fragile nerves all the time.

Yakumo didn't nod, the dragon god didn't know where it was, Yuko actually said that he wanted to establish Gensokyo, and Takeya felt that he seemed to have caused a lot of trouble unconsciously.

But before that, bigger trouble came.

"Wu Ye, you can run for me."

"Where are you going?"

"Go see Purple."

“...... Are you serious? ”

Although most of the people Takeya knows like this kind of trip, what is the situation now, and is it a bit too hasty to make a decision on such an important matter in a few words?

"Of course, this kind of thing is as soon as possible, my identity is too conspicuous to go out, so I can only ask you." With that, Yuko got up and opened the door of the cubicle, and after a sound of rummaging through the cabinets, she took out a long sword.

"This is ......." This sword gave Takeya an extremely familiar feeling.

"If Purple doesn't believe you, you show it to Purple."

Taking the sword from Yuko's hand, Takeya glanced at the cherry blossom drawing on the hilt...... No wonder I feel that the monster seems to be a little worse than the demon dream, and I have been watching the sword for a long time here!

Wu Ye raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Yuzi, is it possible that you really know swordsmanship?" ”

"Well, this kind of thing has a chance to tell you again, anyway, now that the city is in chaos, you should get out of the city quickly."

Under Yuko's repeated urging, Takeya was sent on the road in a hurry.

Leaving the Saiyu Mansion, Takeya found that the chaos in Kyoto had not ended, and had even intensified.

The heavily armed samurai were like a wrecked boat in a storm in the crowd, and no matter how hard they tried to control the situation, it would be a drop in the bucket.

Kyoto, which had lost its order, was transformed into a large dye vat, and civilians, merchants, old people, children, and the sharp-eyed Takeya saw several people wearing swords following the flow of people.

Not everyone is qualified to carry a sword, and seeing the look of shame on their faces, Takeya probably understood what was going on, not everyone had the courage to fight against youkai.

Going against the flow of people, he finally understood why the huge Kyoto had become so crowded, and there was a steady stream of refugees outside the city.

Wu Ye casually stopped a refugee, the other party's clothes did not look like an ordinary civilian, the man wanted to reprimand rude, but when he spoke, he caught a glimpse of the Louguan sword on Wu Ye's waist, and he had to close his mouth with a sigh of respect, his eyes revealing respect.

From his mouth, Wu Ye finally knew the whole story, these people fled after the fall of the northern cities.

How can a group of unarmed civilians escape so far under the hands of youkai? What are you kidding, at this time, Wu Ruo still can't guess that this is what the other party did on purpose, then he has been in Gensokyo for so many years.

Humans and monsters are already on the weak side of the battle, and sometimes the battle needs to rely not only on strength but also on momentum, and the word desperate is easy to say, if you really want to do it, how many people will not spare their lives?

Deliberately letting go of a large number of refugees and letting them come to Kyoto to create panic and inflict a heavy blow on the morale of humanity, the youkai don't even need to do anything, as long as they wait quietly, they can give a great blow to humanity mentally.

If you can block the news first, there is still room for maneuver, but with such a large number of refugees pouring into the city at one time, the truth has long been lost, and it is too late to do anything now.

So, whose handiwork is this, the style is very similar to Yakumo Murasaki, but isn't she planning to be a peacemaker?

Neither Yuka-sama nor Suika seem to be the ones who would do that, so the only ones left are Tengu? Hmm—I remember it was like barking, Otengu?

......

North, the base camp of monsters.

"You've done a great thing, you guys." Yakumo Zi spoke in a very subtle tone, which was obviously not a compliment.

She leaned down, trying to see what the face of the guy in front of her with his head down, but the other party just lowered his head.

Yakumo Zi snorted lightly, and his narrowed eyes shone dangerously: "Don't we remember ever giving such an order for you to continue attacking, Great Tengu, is this what you mean, or is it that guy's?" ”

If there were other youkai present at this moment, he would definitely be extremely surprised, because the Great Tengu, who was the leader of the Tengu clan, had actually put his body so low in front of Yakumo Zi.

But neither Yakumo Murasaki nor Suika were present, nor even the Great Tengu himself had no objection to this, because the Great Tengu was just an acting leader.

The real leader of the Tengu clan who can really be on an equal footing with Yakumo Purple is a special tengu subspecies called the Heavenly Demon, and it is also the "guy" in Yakumo Murasaki's mouth.

"I don't know what Lord Heavenly Demon thinks, if there is a need, I think that Lord will explain it himself."

"Oh, really?"

With mockery in her eyes, Yakumo watched the big tengu leave the room, she turned around and slowly returned to her position, and asked Suika on the side, "Speaking of which, it seems that we only met once not long ago, what kind of youkai is she?" ”

"Do you say Heavenly Demons?" Suika put down the wine bowl in her hand, thought for a while, and said, "Pure, she is always working hard for the prosperity of the race, and it is her idea to propose that Tengu be separated from the ghost race." ”

"You're still not angry?"

"What's there to be angry about?" Cui Xiang shrugged her shoulders indifferently: "The ghost clan has declined, if they are still willing to follow us, I really doubt that she, the Heavenly Demon, has something wrong with her brain." ”

"Is that so?" Yakumo frowned slightly, an intermittent youkai like her couldn't understand the survival method of the so-called race in Suzuka's mouth.

Suika stared at Yakumo for a while: "You seem to be very dissatisfied with her?" Also, liking to assert oneself is not welcome anywhere. ”

"That's not what we care about."

Yakumo Zi doesn't like "smart people", especially a guy like this who likes to use his intelligence on himself, compared to the Heavenly Demon, she even thinks that the tyrant of the Battle Crazy Flower is a lot cuter.

At least the tyrant wouldn't spend his extra energy thinking about the grounds for war.

Before Yakumo Murasaki stepped forward, no youkai had thought of uniting against humans, not that they didn't have the ability, but that they didn't understand what they were doing it for.

Monsters feed on humans in order to survive, humans retreat monsters in order to survive, everyone is in order to be able to continue to live, and this pattern has never been broken for thousands of years.

Until the appearance of Yakumo Murasaki.

She gives the youkai a reason to fight other than to survive.

Why war with humans? For glory!

It can be said that Yakumo Purple is the first and only youkai who has other pursuits besides "eating".

It was she who guided the monster in the right direction, and it was she who guided this terrifying power to the right place, and she deserved the name of the sage.

All the youkai cheered for their might, for the cities they ruled, for the growing fear of humanity.

This is the glory, the glory of the yokai.

Yakumo Murasaki, who gave them all this, naturally became their only follower, and the youkai frantically worshipped this youkai sage.

However, only Yakumo Purple herself understands, glory? Hehe, to hell with it, she didn't waste so much effort to make a bunch of idiots worship.

Yakumo wanted just that person to smile.

That, her best friend.
