Chapter 87

King of Silver

After a comfortable night's sleep at Fuyuki's place, Shirogane got up early the next morning and smiled as she looked at her perfect and elegant self in the mirror.

She pushed open the door and ran out, turning back as she said energetically, "I'm going out—"

Fuyuki and Ichigo Hitofuri both responded: "Bon voyage."

Bai Yin smiled and said, "Okay."

Watching the departing silver figure, the two looked at each other and smiled.

Fuyuki rested her chin on her hand and sighed, "No matter how many times, greeting yourself like this is a magical thing."

Ichigo Hitofuri patted her head and said softly, "But it's also very interesting, isn't it?"

Today is the first day of the first cycle of life.

Fuyuki really likes Ichigo Hitofuri, and of course, she likes every sword in the citadel.

Ichigo Hitofuri is a beloved older brother, a steady and reliable attendant, and an incomparably sharp sword. Even his hair is perfectly combed, without a single flaw.

There was no sign of panic or confusion in him; this elder brother of Awataguchi always seemed calm and collected.

He cherished his younger brother and revered the Saniwa, acting as a perfect example of a tsukumogami.

That's absolutely amazing.

Dongshu lay on the sofa and mumbled, "I want to eat an egg pancake."

Ichigo Hitofuri turned his head to the side: "Okay, do you need milk?"

Dongshu frowned: "Yes, please give me yogurt."

Ichigo Hitofuri paused for a moment, then replied, "Okay."

Soon, breakfast was laid out in front of Fuyuki. Ichigo Hitofuri watched the young Saniwa eating earnestly and instantly remembered Shokudaikiri Mitsutada's instructions.

He reluctantly suggested, "Master, pure milk is also very delicious."

Fuyuki blinked and replied willfully, "I don't like it, no."

She knew, of course, that everyone wanted her to drink something more nutritious, but who said yogurt wasn't nutritious?

They're all milk, there's no difference!

Faced with the Saniwa's rebellion, Ichigo Hitofuri had no choice but to indulge him against his will.

What can you do if you don't pamper your own Saniwa?

It is important to understand that the master's wishes are the primary principle.

Ichigo Hitofuri :)

Isana's dormitory.

Cat hesitated, her eyes fixed on the boy who had begged her to cure his memory loss.

Cats possess the unique ability to manipulate cognition, even altering human memories.

She can instill false memories in people, making those she meets for the first time believe that they have known each other for a long time.

This is also why Isana Yashiro can move around freely in the Ashigaku Academy.

She fabricated memories for everyone Isana Yashiro met, creating an ideal life for her Shiro so that the amnesiac king wouldn't end up homeless.

The cat clasped its paws together in front of its chest, its emotions a jumble of thoughts.

Looking at the silver-white-clad boy before her, she felt as if she had returned to that equipment room.

In her memories, she was a lonely cat, an outcast cat, a cat being attacked, a sad cat... and in the end, she was a silver-haired boy who smiled gently at her.

Unlike others, the unfamiliar boy didn't attack her. The first thing he said when he opened his eyes was in confusion: "Hi, who are you?"

It seemed as if she were a life of equals to his.

The silver-haired boy, instead of becoming dangerous in the face of her wary and flustered demeanor, scratched his head apologetically and said, "Did I scare you? I'm sorry."

The smiling, sincere apology of the boy outside in the moonlight lowered her guard, and the cat suddenly quieted down.

She looked at him.

He was looking at her too.

Their eyes met.

Then, the cat stepped forward and jumped onto the boy, accepting his petting.

Then, the sudden appearance of the girl broke the silence, and the cat also noticed that something was wrong with the boy.

Looking at the pictures posted on the wall, the cat unleashed its power.

She thought he was a good person.

He doesn't need to worry.

Thus, the boy became Isana Yashiro.

Shirogane pulled Yatogami Kuroh to sit beside her, watching the strange atmosphere between the two with her chin propped up, bored as she watched the scene unfold before her.

To be honest, she gets quite bored when she has nothing to do.

Yatogami Kuroh asked her, "Can the cat really restore Shiro's memories?"

He also started calling Isana Yashiro "Shiro".

Perhaps the term had already been changed a long time ago, but Baiyin is only hearing it now.

Faced with the question, Baiyin raised an eyebrow: "Guess."

The cat released all its power, revealing the truth to Isana Yashiro.

The white-clad girl officially declares: "Little White is the kitten's Little White!"

Baiyin had heard this sentence many times before, after all, the two of them had met and become acquainted from the very beginning.

So when comforting the cat, Shirogane chose this phrase that she herself had said.

As Isana Yashiro processed these extra thoughts, he grumbled, "Can I find my previous memories, the ones before I met the cat? I think I need them."

The cat lowered its excited hand: "If we do that, will Little White disappear?"

She was very anxious: "Will I suddenly become someone I don't recognize?"

"Don't worry, I belong to the cats, don't I?"

Isana responded with a smile.

Baiyin nodded in satisfaction. Not bad, not bad, worthy of being her king.

You deserve to have a clan.

The cat cheered up. She really liked what Yasuie Isana said, "I belong to the cat." It felt like her words had finally been answered and made whole.

Although Silver had already given him the next line, the words spoken by the person in question always carry a unique meaning.

Although the cat-like white-haired beauty looks delicate and fragile, making her seem easy to fool, she is not actually weak.

Her unique power is enough to make her an outstanding being.

Not to mention that the cat was extremely skilled at using it.

The result was, of course, unsatisfactory; Isana Yashiro could only recall the scene of being kicked down from a height by a strange man.

He was bewildered and shocked: "Who... was that just now?"

Baiyin pouted: "See? It won't work."

After all, he himself doesn't seem to realize that this king, who has been running away for decades, is still running away from things in his heart.

Perhaps a little stimulation would be needed to pry open the lock he himself had set, but Baiyin felt it was unnecessary. If he didn't want to face it, he wouldn't. After all, the world wouldn't cease to exist without him.

Such a doting mentality is certainly undesirable, but such thoughts genuinely exist in Baiyin's mind.

Even though she may have some "disdain" for the current king, she remains as sincere as ever.

What can you do if you spoil your own king?

She is the Sword of Damocles of the Silver King, and naturally only she can wound him; anyone else who tries will die.

Whoever comes here will die!

Yatogami Kuroh frowned: "You..."

Seeing the Silver King Sword suddenly become excited, Yatogami Kuroh didn't know what to say.

Xiao Bai wasn't as excited as she was about her memories being restored?

What an amazing relationship between the King and the King's Sword.

High above, the vast ocean stretches to the horizon.
