The Seven Chapter 21: A nostalgic snowfall seven years later
When Inuyasha and the others came to a small village, they saw that the people in the village were panicked, and almost all the men in the prime of life were abducted by the Snow Maiden and got lost in the snow until they died.
She has snow-white skin and a beautiful face, and everywhere she goes, snow falls.
When a young man walks in the snow, he will fall for her illusion and follow her unconsciously.
The next day the man would be found frozen in the snow.
Maitreya and Coral were sitting and chatting by the river when they saw a few villagers.
[Well, that's ...... ]
[Cheer up, hey, open your eyes.] ]
[Don't die.] ]
[How can there be snow this season?] ]
[Excuse me, what's wrong?] ]
[Can you tell us if it's convenient?] ]
[It's a mage, there have been snow demons in the neighborhood a lot recently, and there have been several men in the village who have had accidents like this...... ]
Wearing a hat, dressed in a plain wrap, black hair is dense, white skin is snowy, red lips are slightly dotted, and eyebrows are autumnal.
The men in the village all smiled and said that they would rather freeze to death than see the Snow Maiden.
In fact, most of the people who were taken away were only frozen, not dead, as long as they were found and rescued in time, their lives were not in danger.
[You immediately go to the hut where you meet and tell everyone about it.] ]
[I'm going to clean up the monster so that it can't hurt people anymore.] ]
[This mage is also a young man, will something happen?] ]
[After all, that monster is a peerless beauty with snow-white skin, and almost every man is dazzled when he sees her, and follows her.] ]
The handsome Maitreya Master was also taken by the Snow Maiden and was lured to the Snow Maiden's house to live with her.
The Snow Maiden casts the spell of wind and snow, which can cause heavy snow and cold winds in an area. She also specializes in finding lonely young men and performing illusions.
A man who has been tricked by the illusion will not be able to hear or see the people around him, only the voice of the Snow Maiden, and only the face of the Snow Maiden.
It is a relatively powerful illusion, and even a mage with mana like Maitreya is powerless. It will only be cracked when it is attacked, or when the sun pierces the snow.
The soul of the Snow Maiden belongs to a woman who was caught up in the war and lost her life.
She has been collecting the souls of children who have died tragically and taking care of them. But the Snow Demon takes control of the Snow Maiden's soul and asks her to lead the man trapped in the snow.
The appearance of the Snow Maiden is very similar to the woman named Xiaoxue who rescued the young and unconscious Maitreya in the snow seven years ago.
Although Maitreya comforted himself, Xiaoxue should now live peacefully in a corner of the world.
But Snow Girl's appearance is so similar to Xiaoxue, and they both like to adopt children, I'm afraid it's really her.
The Snow Maiden herself seeks relief, and she hates herself for living in this world, being controlled by the Snow Demon, and doing those things.
In the end, the Snow Maiden was defeated by Maitreya with a Zen staff. The snow leopard was originally called out by the Snow Maiden to deal with Inuyasha, making people think that it was under the orders of the Snow Maiden.
But in fact, it is the snow demon that is the culprit. After the Snow Maiden was defeated by Maitreya, the soul was absorbed by the Snow Demon along with the souls of the dead children collected by the Snow Maiden.
The Snow Demon is very fast and can fly into the sky, easily dodging the attacks of the Flying Bone and Wind Wound.
Normal slashes have no effect on it and can be repaired on its own.
But it is afraid of flames, and of course the fox fire of Shippo is not good.
In the end, Inuyasha seized the opportunity to solve the snow demon's body with Kagome's high-alcohol sobering wine, combined with Coral's flying bones, and his own fireworks tied to the bow and arrow, and set fire to the snow demon's body.
The Snow Maiden's soul was finally liberated this time, and she condensed her icy figure in the air, smiling and expressing her gratitude.
Then it dissipated between heaven and earth.
After the Snow Demon affair is over.
[This soul belongs to a woman who was caught up in a war and lost her life.] ]
[So she has been collecting the souls of those children who have died in infancy, and has been taking care of them.] ]
[And the snow demon took control of that soul.] ]
[It's sad.] ]
[I think women in the Warring States period must have had a hard time.] ]
But Maitreya never forgot it, because this Snow Girl looked very much like the little Snow Girl who saved him in the snow seven years ago.
After saying that, Inuyasha and the others continued their journey.
