Calmed down.

When all the manic flames of greed have dissipated, Takeya is finally able to escape from the pain of his body being burned by sin, but what awaits him is another mental torment.

Unable to stay even for a second, Takeya immediately pounced on the devastated land, frantically looking for the direction of Yuko.

The flames of despair were like grasslands, like forests, and the fear of the entire earth stung Takeya's last sanity.

The broken body of the Westward Demon stood quietly in front of Takeya, accompanied by countless jewel-like static blue flames, pushing aside the layers of despair, and hiding in the final depths was the fire of the girl's life that had disappeared.

Standing in front of the dead girl is a silent youkai.

Yakumo froze in place, the scarlet of her fingertips sliding down drop by drop, she never thought that she would watch her friend's death in such a way, not even in the most absurd dreams.

Because she's strong, because she's a youkai sage, because even if the war can't be stopped, she can leave everything behind without hesitation, as long as it's for Yuko.

However, the cold reality is the most merciless mockery, and it ruthlessly destroys everything about Yakumo Murasaki.

For Yakumo Murasaki, the world exists so that Yuuko has a place where she can laugh, and if Yuuko no longer exists, then what is the point of this world?

Step by step, Yakumo Purple slowly came to Yuko's body, gently covered the ashes of Yuko's body that had been burned by the flames with petals, smoothed her collar, hugged her into her arms, and quietly felt the body that had lost its temperature.

Wu also stood beside her, waving his hand to disperse the remnants of the withered westbound demon branches around him, and he was wearing a mask, exuding an ominous aura all over his body.

Looking at Yakumo Purple, Takeya suddenly let out a strange laugh, as if he was going to strangle all lamentations in his throat with chains to prevent them from coming out, dull and gloomy.

"In fact, I have always had a doubt, what is the benchmark for the so-called truth and falsehood."

Taking care of himself, Wu also began to speak: "No matter what era it is, I haven't found the existence of the dragon god, and now it seems that it is not because he is too mysterious, but because I misunderstood." ”

Glancing at the dragon god robe on his body, Takeya slowly took it off, folded it neatly and placed it beside Yuko, and then took off his mask and placed it on top of the robe.

Looking down at his gradually vain body disappearing into the light little by little, Takeya couldn't hold back his laughter any longer.

When history returns to its original trajectory, unwanted existence will be excluded by this era-

This was proven in the days of Kaguyahime, who traveled with her two hundred years ago, and he stopped her from trying to reverse her stupidity, so history has not changed.

And after that, Wu Ye and Mei Hong "disappeared" from that era, as if they had never appeared...... No, it may not be right, but it should be said that by the time they returned to that era, they had already become part of "history".

Nothing has changed, whether it is the little sister red or not, even Kaguya and Yonglin have embarked on their original trajectory.

Everything they did was as if it were just to make history move its course, just as it is now.

He tries to change Yuko's future, tries to change the root of all the tragedies in Gensokyo, but the answer the world gives him is this-

Looking down at the body that is gradually becoming transparent...... It's very incredible, Wu Ye doesn't have any resentment or resentment about this, on the contrary, now he feels a sudden enlightenment.

It was as if the stone that had been stuffed in the heart had been removed, and the oppressive air suddenly became fresh, and even the fist that should have been weak and weak seemed to have infinite power at this moment.

He raised his head, basking in the first rays of light that fell after breaking through the gray clouds, and that light was like a dutiful guard expelling himself from his already darkened body.

"Heh, hehe, hahahahahaha-"

Covering his face, he let out a series of strange laughs that were as dry and shrill as rusty strings, and Wu also unconsciously hooked the corners of his mouth, and said to himself: "I see, I see, it's really easy for me to find, 'Dragon God' - it's here......"

Using his foot to smash the mask that he had just put down, Takeya still felt as if something could not be suppressed was growing wildly in his heart, and since he couldn't stop it, it was better to let it be.

Even though the smell was so disgusting—the smell of sin.

After making a mess of his clothes and mask, Takeya finally turned his gaze to Yakumo Murasaki, who had been silent, as if he was satisfied: "Who said the saying 'A lie a thousand times will become true'?" Forget it, it's anyone's good - it's really convinced, it's actually going around in such a big circle, Purple, it turns out that the guy you have been trying to kill is me. ”

"I don't know what you're talking about, but I do want to kill you, Ryujin." Yakumo Purple was calmly terrifying, she just hugged her friend tightly, and looked at the land with nothing but ashes left with her eyes gone.

“...... Was it because of me that Yuuko's death? The curvature of Takeya's mouth widened uncontrollably, even though the words were full of timid tremors.

"No, it's because you, a monster, appeared in Yuko's world," Yakumo Zi gently let Yuko lie down, turned his head and unabashed his hatred: "We finally understand that it was wrong to choose to accept you from the beginning." ”

"Really......"

After a moment of silence, Takeya said seriously to Yakumo Murasaki:

"What a coincidence, I think so too."

Sneer————!!!

As the words fell, dark blue flames burst out of the ground, surrounding Takeya and making a gesture of fangs and claws, two rays of light flew out of Yuko's body, he held the lustful sword in one hand, and held the cup of gluttony in the other, the puppet that manipulated time was quietly suspended above his head, and the golden key grew out of chains and hung on his chest.

On the ruined castle tower in the distance, a golden pillar of light rose into the sky in resonance, and countless streamers flowed into Takeya's body from the unknowable distance, and in a short time, a cracked hand mirror appeared on his right wrist.

"Ha - it's incredible, it's the first time I've used these powers, why does my body feel so familiar? Haha, that's weird. ”

Under the shroud of six-colored light, Wu Ye grinned, obviously he couldn't laugh at what he thought was so funny, and in the face of Yakumo Zi, who stood up, there was only hatred left, and he was also fearless at this moment.

"Kill you!!" Without a word of nonsense, Yakumo Purple manipulated everything she could, and the power of the realm was maximized at this moment, and it was the color of hatred in her heart that distorted the heavens and the earth.

"Impossible." Takeya's almost indifferent words were like a declaration, blocking all of Yakumo's delusions.

With a swing of the sword, the overwhelming blue flames churned the distorted world like a large dye vat, and Takeya sideways dodged Yakumo Murasaki, who sneaked up from the gap, and flung the cup of gluttony with a backhand, and instead Gungnir pierced her body with a single shot.

Although the demonic power was exhausted and nailed to the ground, the hatred in Yakumo's purple eyes did not diminish in the slightest.

"Damn! Demonic power ......! Yakumo struggled and found that she could not escape the shackles of the spear, and she raised her head and stared at Takeya as if to keep that face in mind.

Sighing, Wu also tried his best to show his helplessness, but the smile was distorted and terrifying: "It's useless, Zi, even if your demon power is in its heyday, it is impossible to win against me now." ”

"So what!" Yakumo held Ganganir's spearmen tightly, splashing blood that stained the sage's sanity red, like a devil impregnated with hatred, she said word by word: "I already remember you, Ryujin, even if I can't kill you now, but I still have time, ten, twenty, hundred, thousand, until the end of time!" One day I'll kill you to put an end to this hatred! ”

"So, that's impossible."

This time, Wu Ye no longer chose to escape, he looked directly into Yakumo Purple's eyes, and the long sword in his hand bloomed: "But don't worry, Purple, one day I will let you kill me with your own hands, but not now, because I still have to do something." ”

"You guy...... Want to escape?! Yakumo Zi, who found that Takeshi had disappeared little by little, widened his eyes, and the flames of hatred almost erupted from his eyes.

"I'm sorry, Purple, I'm going to take away your memories, you won't remember me anymore, it's a job necessary for future survival." Wu Ye, who was holding the long sword of lust, had an indescribable weirdness in his heart.

Although it was the first time he had used it, he seemed to be familiar with both the ability and the method, as if he had already used it countless times.

"What ......!" Yakumo Zi was stunned, and even though he was dazzled by the red brilliance, he only heard Wu Ye's mournful chant in a trance.

"May your soul sink into the world of love and receive eternal happiness, and in exchange may your body be my eternal servant, come, dance."

This is?!

Despite being in an extremely disadvantageous position, and even being carried away by anger and launching a self-destructive attack just now, Yakumo Purple suddenly calmed down after seeing the Red Light Sword in Takeya's hand.

Yuko's figure flashed through her mind, and the powerlessness that was once dominated by the sword was still vivid, and it wasn't until Yuko's death that she regained her will.

You can't go wrong with this feeling, it's the same ability!

Although she realized what Wu was going to do, Yakumo Zi was still powerless, this power was something she couldn't resist, but she couldn't just watch the other party act recklessly!

Thanks to Yuuko, who had already used this power on herself once before, it made Yakumo Murasaki come up with a last-ditch fight.

"Huh?"

For a moment, Takeya seemed to see the shadow under Yakumo's feet split into two, but it was only for a moment, so fast that Takeya thought it was just an illusion.

The red light fell, and Yakumo Murasaki's resentful gaze had gradually regained its calm, and Takeya silently pulled out the Gangnir nailed to her, while instilling his own demonic power into her body.

The weapon of lust's great sin, as long as you hold it, you can understand the method of use, and Wu also uses its power to make Yakumo Zi forget what she looks like, probably in the future, the only thing she can remember is the concept of "dragon god".

The successive injuries made Yakumo Zi already unable to support, and Takeshi also put her who had fainted to Yuko's side.

So, now—

Leaning down to look at the smile left by Yuko, Takeya took a deep breath, raised his head and stretched out his hand to the sky high and far:

"I'm sorry, Yuko, I can't just go back to my time honestly, if that's the right history....... Then I'll destroy it—theworld!! ”

World, stop.
