Chapter 38: Paradoxical

“..... I finally understood what this prop used to seem meaningless to me did. ”

It was something that didn't exist in the minds of the three of them, or something that didn't have any special connection to the history of Gensokyo.

What Takeya held in his hand was the only thing he took away from Adam's body other than memory and strength, and he couldn't even remember why he threw this thing into the gap at the time.

Rokuka's night vision.

Once Adam wore ornaments to avoid looking at himself, comical and ineffective.

Now, Takeya wears it on his head.

The false blue sky overhead was torn to pieces by the fangs and claws of the westbound demon, the netherworld barrier was shattered by the cherry streamer, and the surging black mist brought a long-suppressed sense of fear that hung over the entire Gensokyo, and the distorted posture made the whole world tremble.

Surrounded by the branches of the westward demon in the center, Takeya's arms stretched out towards the sky seemed to praise this apocalyptic spectacle.

There is a tacit understanding called unbelievable, and the surprise it brings is more appropriately described as surprise.

The "lived" westward demon gave too much surprise to the three of them, among which Yakumo Purple and Yuko were particularly shocked, you know, in their world, although it is not enough to let Yuko sacrifice her life to seal this monster Sakura, but the price they have paid is unimaginable.

There are no sacrifices, no spells, and this fake martial artist in front of them has made the westward demon that has been dead for thousands of years bloom again with just one thought, how can this not make them feel frightened.

What made Yakumo even more incomprehensible was that this Wu Ye seemed to be very familiar with them, or rather, very familiar with her.

So much so that when she was about to bury the underworld and the westward demon together, Takeya's attack was in front of her.

It's not that Yakumo Purple is cold by nature, although the underworld does not belong to the world of the living, but it is the fateful place of her friend Yuko, and it is also a place that carries their various memories.

The choice to bury Yakumo Zi here with her own hands was really painful for her, but the horror of the Westward Demon made her ruthlessly stop after a short hesitation.

But Wu Ye was actually faster than her.

It's not so much that Takeya is faster than her, but that he expected it a long time ago.

Is this possible?!

In addition to being surprised, Yakumo Zi did not forget to draw a gap to avoid Takeya's attack, but when she saw the whistling red meteor, surprise came to her heart again.

"This is, the ...... of that little bat in the Red Devil Pavilion?"

The crimson fierce light was swallowed by the gap, as if she had sunk to the bottom of a deep lake, and she could no longer make any waves, but at this moment, Yakumo Zi's expression suddenly changed, and before she even had time to say a word, she was "swallowed" by her own gap.

At least that's what Yuko and Reimu see.

As the purple vanished, Gungnir, who had been flying into the gap and disappeared, let out a trembling roar again, and flew back into his hand through a gap that had newly appeared at Takeya's feet.

And all this happened in a short instant.

"Purple ......?" At this time, Reimu and Yuko could only stare at the emptiness in front of them at the moment.

As a gap monster is a powerful monster sage, purple is absolutely impossible to make a mistake like a "mistake", so the gap that seems to be purple swallows itself, but the initiator of all this is probably the "Wu Ye" in front of him.

Purple's disappearance is not just a simple result of the first unfavorable battle, for the two of them, the real trouble has just begun.

At the end of the underworld, the infinitely expanding black mist was engulfing the distant clear sky, and Reimu knew, or she could see, that was where Gensokyo was.

In other words, the Netherworld Barrier that separates the underworld and Gensokyo has been destroyed, and the only youkai sage who can attack the realm at this moment as Gensokyo, is nowhere to be found.

Reimu didn't believe that Purple would be killed so easily, but he didn't see Purple counterattack, I'm afraid that the other party used some strange means to restrain Purple.

"You're ..... Guys, who the hell is it! ”

Maybe when the two got along before, this "Wu Ye" gave her a feeling that was too familiar, so that if it weren't for Zi's appearance and the other party's self-exposure, she wouldn't even have thought that this Wu Ye was actually fake.

Speaking of which, it's even a little unwilling, as a childhood sweetheart for more than ten years, Reimu will actually have a day when he admits his mistake Wuya.

But why......

The right hand holding the imperial coin was a little weak, even if it had been confirmed that the guy in front of him was an impostor, but Reimu still didn't know why, and there was always something that couldn't do anything to him.

"It's coming! Reimu, don't be in a daze! ”

Hearing the exclamation of Yuko beside her, Reimu shook her head for a while, and she felt that a strong wind was blowing around her, and "Takeya" wearing a strange device on her head was already approaching her.

Under the strong pressure of the subconscious restraint in her heart, Reimu exerted her strength sideways, and a circle of cracks spread under her feet, although she flew up with a leg of lightning, she still chose to avoid the other party's vital point.

But Takeya's reaction gave her the illusion that she was looking in the mirror, and the other party blocked most of the force with his arm, and then raised his leg against his lower abdomen, saluting himself at a tricky angle.

Well? Why do you feel like you're practicing against your mother-in-law?

A brief moment of stunned flickered through Reimu's eyes, and the pain in her abdomen made her suddenly aware of this frightening reality.

This guy actually uses Borei's physical skills?

The incomprehensible phenomenon is so outrageous in front of me.,Hakurei's physical skills have always been a single lineage of Hakurei shrine maidens.,Even Yakumo Zi, who has a lot of relationship with Hakurei shrine maidens, doesn't know much about it.。

It's not that the shrine maiden's secrecy is done well, but that this kind of body art is not suitable for youkai at all, and it should even be said that it is not suitable for anyone except Hakurei shrine maiden, so it is called "Hakurei Body".

It's already bizarre that a guy other than a Hakurei witch can use Hakurei's physical arts, which seems to add a touch of mystery to the guy in front of him who looks like Takeya.

But emotion is emotion, this time it also woke up Reimu completely.

Although she didn't understand what the black fog brought by the Westward Demon was, she could also perceive an astonishing "evil" from it, a phenomenon that could not be described in simple words, a sense of oppression that transcended the scope of physical ability and even the soul.

Evil.

It was almost like a natural enemy, like life and death, white and black, the abyssal evil born from chaos, and it was an existence with which they could never get along.

If these black fogs are allowed to erode Gensokyo, the consequences are absolutely unimaginable.

Although the shrine maiden hates to solve the mutation, it can't be counted as the one who sends it to the door, and now is not the time to be willful.

The gushing majestic spiritual power turned into an invisible relaxation zone to stabilize Reimu's upside-down body, she reconciled the spiritual power with one hand, and waved the imperial coin with the other, and the surging spiritual power wave seemed to be guided, with her as the center of the vortex contraction.

When the total amount of spiritual power reached a critical point, countless rays of light flew from Reimu's feet, lighting up all the faint spiritual power particles in the air, turning them into a barrage enchantment as vast as the starry sky.

"Double-" Reimu took a deep breath, and in the next second, the expression on his face was replaced by astonishment.

"Double: Barrage Enchantment."

These words came from Takeya's mouth, and behind him, there was also a shining starry sky, and both the number and precision seemed to be above Reimu's barrage barrier......
