Chapter 482 Find the Answer Yourself
In this way, the engagement between Aize and Asatake Yoshino was finalized.
Genjuro Kurama seemed to have been prepared for this and had discussed it with Yasuharu Asatake long ago. After they finished discussing the matter, he brought Aize's luggage over.
Chao Wu Anqing was very positive about this and left with Aize's luggage, saying that he would prepare a room for him so that he could stay there tonight.
Kurama Genjuro also left, saying that he would go back to contact Aize's parents, have a good talk about this matter, and try to get their consent.
After the two left, Aize and Asatake Yoshino were the only ones left in the room.
Oh no, there is also a ghost (? ) that is invisible to others floating nearby, looking at the two of them with interest, as if he is ready to watch a good show.
Aize and Asatake Yoshino looked at each other in silence.
After a while, Asatake Yoshino was the first to speak.
"I'm sorry, my father seems to be talking to himself. Please don't take it to heart." Asatake Yoshino had managed to regain her composure and said, "I'll tell him to stop doing that."
"...I don't think it matters." Aize was silent for a while, then said calmly: "Although this engagement came a little inexplicably, it's nothing compared to what I encountered today."
Asatake Yoshino naturally knew what Aize was referring to.
Indeed, compared with knowing that there really are gods and monsters in this world, and that the sacred sword enshrined in Kenjiro Shrine is a genuine divine object with a manager residing inside it, entering into a marriage contract with Asatake Yoshino is nothing.
But when she thought of this, Yoshino Asatake's mood became even worse.
"It's our fault that we dragged you into this inexplicable thing." Asatake Yoshinori looked at Aize very seriously and said, "If possible, I also hope that Mr. Aize can stay out of these things."
"This is definitely not a good thing for Mr. Aize."
"So please don't be curious about these things and delve into them."
Hearing this, Aize frowned slightly.
Maybe Yoshino Asatake meant that he should not delve too deeply into mysterious events like the God Sword?
But since he already knew that this world was different from what he had imagined and that there were supernatural phenomena and powers, how could he not explore it?
To put it bluntly, he would stay here and even watch things like marriage contracts come about, and even agreed to transfer to Hoori's place to settle down. One of the biggest reasons was that he was interested in these things.
Now, Asatake Yoshino asked him not to be curious and not to delve into it further. Isn't this forcing him?
"Wait, Yoshino."
Cong Yu, who was watching the show on the sidelines, could no longer sit still and spoke up.
"Master is a user recognized by Cong Yuwan and me. You don't really intend to tell him nothing, do you?"
It can be seen that Cong Yu does not quite support Asatake Yoshino's statement.
"Master Cong Yu, please don't speak." Chao Wu Fang Nai's attitude was also very firm. With a tense face, she said to Cong Yu without questioning: "This is originally our own business. How can we involve innocent people?"
"But you need the master and Cong Yu Wan, right?" Cong Yu frowned and whispered, "It's not easy to find someone who can use Cong Yu Wan. If the master can make good use of our power, maybe..."
Before Cong Yu could finish her words, she was interrupted by Chaowu Yoshinori.
"In any case, this has nothing to do with Mr. Aize. If I involve him just because I need to, wouldn't that be too selfish?" Chao Wu Fangnai glanced at the silent Aize, bit her lip, and said, "Anyway, I have decided to do this, Master Cong Yu, please don't say anything you shouldn't say."
"It's the same with my father. I will try to persuade him."
After saying that, Asatake Yoshinori turned around and left without giving Aize any chance to talk to her.
Aize didn't say anything, but just looked deeply at the back of this overly beautiful witch and watched her leave.
"Really? You're too inflexible, aren't you?" Cong Yu hesitated for a long time, and finally said helplessly: "You can obviously make the situation better, why are you so stubborn?"
"So..." Aize finally spoke, and said unexpectedly calmly: "Let's put aside other things, I can't delve into the secrets of Hoori anymore, right?"
"I'm sorry, Master." Cong Yu hesitated again, and after a while he sighed and said, "Since Fang Nai is so resistant, we can't go against her."
"As for what's going on here, Yoshino is actually the one who's been most affected."
"And if she refuses to let you, the master, get involved, then we have no choice but to respect her opinion."
"I understand." Aize didn't force it. He nodded first and then said, "But I'm already like this. I can't pretend that I know nothing."
Aize gently stroked the blade of Cong Yuwan in his hand.
"This guy is so active in calling me, he must want me to accomplish something, right?" Aize said to himself: "Since you are unwilling to tell me, I will find the answer myself."
Anyway, I don’t have to go to Shinatoso to work, and I can arrange the entire vacation by myself. I have enough free time to find out the secret of Hoori.
He really didn't believe that he couldn't find anything.
"Master, please don't do anything rash." Cong Yu couldn't help but admonish: "Don't look at Fang Nai's expression, she actually did this because she was worried about the master."
"Although I don't agree with her taking on everything on her own, I have to admit that Fang Nai is right. Maybe it's too selfish of us to involve you, Master."
"It's not without danger, so I can understand why Yoshino did this."
The implication of Cong Yu's words was very clear. She was telling Aize that if he kept going too deep into something, it would most likely not be worth the effort.
It is a fact that sometimes ignorance is bliss.
"I will do what I can."
Aize did not make any rebuttal, but just said this calmly.
"Oh... I hope so."
Cong Yu seemed to see that Aize was not being sincere and couldn't help but sigh.
However, she did not stop it.
Because this is her master, the user approved by Cong Yuwan, it is impossible for her to really get away from everything and return to her previous life.
Moreover, she was also quite curious about Aize.
"Why is the master so special?"
The special thing that Cong Yu refers to is not just the unusualness he showed in the matter of Cong Yu Wan.
Thinking back to the scene when the two of them were playing around just now, Cong Yu unconsciously reached out her hand and poked Aize's cheek with her finger.
"What?"
Aize was thinking about something, and was immediately distracted by Cong Yu's poke.
"nothing."
Cong Yu quickly shook her head and looked at her finger that was touching Aize's cheek, her eyes full of surprise.
You know, no matter how much Cong Yu resists being treated as a ghost, she has to admit that she is not a person living in this world like others.
She is just a spirit living in Cong Yuwan. Except for her master Aize and special cases like the direct descendants of the Chaowu family, no one else can see her at all.
Not only that, as a spirit, Cong Yu could not touch anything. Whether it was a wall or a floor, she could pass through them directly.
But when she was playing with Aize just now, Cong Yu realized belatedly that she could actually touch Aize, and Aize could also touch her, but they could not directly penetrate each other.
Cong Yu has been the manager of Cong Yu Wan for hundreds of years, but he has never encountered such a thing.
"in the end……"
Cong Yu fell into deep thought.
Time just passes by like this.
Before I knew it, this turbulent night was over.
Aize also officially moved into Kenjiro Shrine and the Asatake family, becoming the fiancé of the contemporary shrine maiden.
…………
The next day, at dawn.
Before it was fully light, Aize had already woken up.
When he woke up, the first thing Aize saw was the unfamiliar ceiling, followed by a head leaning over from the side.
"Are you awake so early, Master?"
Cong Yu floated in the air, looking at Aize who opened his eyes, seeming a little surprised.
"……Good morning."
Aize didn't know how to comment on the fact that he saw a ghost floating above his head as soon as he opened his eyes in the morning. He could only hold it in for a while and uttered these words.
"Good morning." Cong Yu looked normal, and even asked with concern, "Are you not used to living in an unfamiliar environment, so you woke up so early?"
At this time, Aize was lying in a Japanese-style room.
The surroundings are furnished with pieces of furniture that are well-arranged, low-key and not extravagant.
There was a low table in the middle of the room, on which rested a sheathed knife.
Aize was not lying on the bed, but on the futon spread directly on the tatami.
This room is the bedroom that Asahi Yasuharu arranged for Aize to use. It is a guest room in Kenjiro Shrine.
Aize crawled out of the bed, stretched, and spoke to Cong Yu who was floating next to him.
"I'm quite adaptable and I don't recognize the same bed, so I won't feel uncomfortable." Aize smiled and said, "This is the time I usually get up. My biological clock won't allow me to not wake up at this time."
"Is that so?" Cong Yu was stunned for a moment, and asked in surprise: "Does the master usually get up so early?"
"If nothing unexpected happens." Aize stood up, changed out of his pajamas, put on clothes for going out, and said, "When I was very young, my grandfather customized a plan for me to exercise. Morning exercises and morning jogging are the top priorities of this plan, so I have long been accustomed to getting up early."
"Even now, I still don't miss my morning run. After all, I have been doing it for more than ten years."
Hearing this, Cong Yu, who was following behind Aize, spoke out in admiration.
"I didn't expect that our master would be so self-disciplined. He is indeed Xuanjuro's grandson."
Aize, who was about to go to the bathroom to wash up, glanced at Cong Yu who was floating behind him and raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Just call grandpa by his name? Xiao Congyu, are you very familiar with grandpa?"
Aize's question was met with Cong Yu's matter-of-fact answer.
"I have been in Hoori for hundreds of years. Although others cannot see me, I like to wander around when I have nothing to do. So I am familiar with most of the people in Hoori. After all, I have watched them grow up."
These words were extremely inappropriate, and it was hard to imagine that they were spoken by a girl who looked only fourteen or fifteen years old.
Aize looked at Cong Yu strangely and asked, "Including my grandpa?"
"Of course, Xuan Shilang is a very conspicuous person. It's impossible for me not to notice him." Cong Yu puffed out her chest and said proudly, "Don't look at Xuan Shilang like this now. He was much more interesting when he was a child. I still remember how shy he was when he wrote a love letter to a girl he liked."
...My grandpa actually wrote love letters to the girls he liked when he was a kid? And he was so shy about it?
Why can't I imagine it?
The extremely strict and stern face of Kurama Genjuro since childhood appeared in Aize's mind, and he just felt it was extremely weird.
If grandpa knew about this, he wouldn't want to kill his grandson to silence him, right?
But...it doesn't look like my grandpa can beat me right now.
Do you want to try to tease her?
...Forget it, I'd better not do anything stupid.
Aize decided with some regret to keep the matter in his heart, but secretly decided to talk more with Cong Yu when he had nothing to do, to see if he could dig out some unknown secrets.
This old antique has lived in Suizhi for hundreds of years. He must know countless secrets that outsiders don't know.
With this idea in mind, Aize tried to ask Cong Yu questions subtly while washing up.
You know what, he actually learned a lot from the enthusiastic Cong Yu.
"That childhood sweetheart of yours has hidden huge breasts. They shake a lot when she runs."
"Xiaochun looks petite, but she's actually quite well-endowed."
"Although Rentaro is very keen on chatting up girls and his success rate is extremely low, he has had several girlfriends in the past."
In this way, Aize knew a lot of little secrets of his friends, although these little secrets sounded unbelievable.
Cong Yu also told Aize that although Asatake Yasuharu said that yesterday, he and Asatake Yoshino's mother were actually in love with each other, and they were not together after the elders arranged the marriage. Moreover, he was married into the Asatake family, and he was related to Kurama Genjuro, and also had some relatives with Aize.
Although Yoshino Asatake always pretends to be calm and composed, she actually often makes stupid mistakes and messes up simple things from time to time.
Yoshino Asatake has a friend who was trained as a guard for the miko since childhood...
Like this, Cong Yu kept talking about things that Aize didn't know, and left the shrine with him and ran towards the main street of Hoori Town.
