Chapter 65
"Random? What are you doing?"
From behind I heard the sound of wooden clogs hitting the ground.
"Ah, Imaken..." Rando Shiro held Munechika in his palm, leaving some space between them, and turned around with his hands behind his back.
He saw the letter in Jin Jian's hand and took the opportunity to change the subject. He tilted his head, and his long golden orange hair fell from his shoulders as he moved: "Ah, are you helping the master get the mission documents?"
"Yeah, it looks like the mission was accomplished well... eh." Konken walked closer and noticed Kitsunesuke squatting on Ran's shoulder.
Although Kitsunesuke is a mass-produced shikigami and is found in every Honmaru, each Kitsunesuke will be different once a judge has been appointed.
Size, fur color, eye pupils, shape.
These will change slightly depending on the spiritual power of the judge.
Of course, if the judges want, they can also change Kitsunesuke's appearance as they please.
The Kitsunesuke on Ran's shoulder looked quite familiar to Imakaki, and he could recognize it at a glance.
Because the other party looks too much like the original Kitsune no Suke.
"Why is this kid here? Isn't this Kitsunesuke from the Three Moons Main Maru?"
Wearing very high wooden clogs, Imakaki, who had just managed to catch up with Rantoshiro's height, tilted his head to look at Kitsunesuke on Rantoshiro's shoulders and greeted him with a smile, "Nice to meet you again, Mr. Kitsune."
Kitsunesuke didn't expect it to be such a coincidence, and replied obediently: "Hello, Imakendo."
Munechika was trapped in someone's hands and couldn't stand up. He didn't want to hurt Luan and force him to let go, so he could only stay in this position, lying on the edge of Luan's fingers and sticking his head out to breathe fresh air.
He glanced down.
He realized that the distance from here to the ground was probably four stories high for him now.
Munechika: …
He lay down.
Well, I definitely can't see Jin Jian if I'm behind him. I can only look at the scenery and listen to their conversation.
Rantoshiro was startled: "Do you know each other?"
Jin Jian heard this and touched his lower lip with his fingertips, reminiscing: "Rather than saying we know each other... do you still remember the last time the owner closed the milk tea shop?"
He suddenly remembered something and explained, "Ah, it seems like you went on an expedition for two days, right?
It was like this, that day Hanae-sama and Mikazuki were live streaming in the milk tea shop, and it seemed to have caused a big commotion, so they borrowed the store's time-space converter to go back, and that's when I met Kitsunesuke."
then
Back to the original question.
"Why is it here?"
Choked.
To explain why Kitsunesuke is here, we need to explain the situation of Ming Munechika Mikazuki.
He hid Sochin Mikazuki, which was actually a completely conditioned reflex. He would feel his opponent's movement and his mind would melt.
There is nothing to hide. After all, we will go to see the master later. Jin Jian is his attendant and he will definitely know.
So he smiled and said, "Let's go to see the master together, and then you will know."
After a brief consideration, Rando Shiro still didn't dare to let Imakaki see Munechika Mikazuki in her current state. They are both from the Sanjo family, and Imakaki should like Mikazuki very much if he takes her out like this.
Will they be able to get indoors in half an hour?
Are you really not going to be immersed in the love of the third day and the moon?
——Ratou Shiro is surprisingly reliable in this matter.
"Is that so?" Seeing Luan say this, Jin Jian did not continue asking, although he was indeed quite curious.
He talked about another thing.
Jin Jian finished his words with a teasing smile: "You stayed around here dressed like this, I almost thought you were going to perform at Wanwu."
Munechika was still lying on the messy quilt with his hands folded behind his back, feeling the wind created by his hasty walking.
He could just see the time-space converter behind him, and the mailbox which was not in the same place but not that far away.
By the way, there is no mailbox in Chidori's Honmaru.
"I can't help it. I was rehearsing when I was looking for the master. Besides, my level is not good enough. I won't perform in Wanwu!"
The subtitle is that if your level is high enough, you will go?
Rehearsal?
Munechika tilted his head back, but of course he could see nothing; it was just a habitual movement.
He is too young now, and he can't see the whole body of Luan after they meet.
But judging from the earrings and choker, as well as the messy half of his face seen in the mirror, he was indeed dressed very beautifully and exaggeratedly today. Although he didn't see the whole thing, Munechika could roughly imagine what style it was.
It's a fusion of sweetness and handsomeness, very suitable for chaos.
However, I have never heard of rehearsal being mentioned casually, and the questions usually asked were mostly basic ones, such as do you want to rehearse a show?
"Yeah, what's going on with the show?"
"Hehe, just wait and see at the banquet. I'm sure everyone will be satisfied!"
"Well, I'll go report first. Please wait for a moment."
They walked to
At the castle tower, Imakaki waved to Luan, knocked on the door, and went in with the documents.
Before the sliding door closed, the sound of Imakaki could still be heard.
"Master, I got it. This time the reward seems to be very generous."
Rando Shiro breathed a sigh of relief and put Sochin Mikazuki, who was in his palm, in front of him.
Munechika had just been covered, and the ornaments that had been messed up by Kitsunesuke were now almost hanging down in front of his eyes. He sat up and tried to fix them with his hands, but the mess became more and more chaotic, and he finally took them down directly.
Munechika stared at Liusu for a while, then covered his mouth and nose with his sleeves and yawned.
Strange, I feel so sleepy all of a sudden...
His eyes were watery due to yawning, and he looked confused as if he had misunderstood something.
He looked around randomly and found no place to put Zongjin, so he could only speak in a low voice.
"Hey, it's okay. I'll tie it for you later."
He felt itchy inside, and finally took the opportunity to say this to stretch out his other index finger and gently ruffle Munechika's already messy hair.
The little figure in his hands leaned back a bit because he didn't control the strength well at first, and then the soft blue hair was moved. Perhaps because the fingers were too big for him now, Munechika reflexively closed the eye that was close to him, and put his hand lightly on the index finger, allowing it to be rubbed randomly for a few times without resisting.
Boom boom boom.
My heart is like thundering drums.
With trembling fingertips, he placed Munechika Mikazuki on his shoulder. He didn't dare to say a word or cover his face. He used all his strength to maintain his facial expression, but even his ears turned red.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa——
Very good, I completely understand why netizens always die in the same place.
Who can endure this?
Thanks for the invitation, I died right here online.
Munechika sat on Luan's shoulder and shook his head in an attempt to wake himself up, but he still felt very sleepy.
Imakaki in the castle tower quickly reported everything and came over to open the door.
"The master said..." Let you in.
As Imakaki was speaking, his eyes happened to fall on Munechika Mikazuki, who was sitting on Luan's shoulders with his hands supporting his sides.
He stopped dead in his tracks.
Silence is the corridor today.
Jin Jian rubbed his eyes, and just when he was about to explain, he finally realized what he saw!
“Waaaaaaaaaaaa—”
"What? Crescent Moon? Nonsense, is this a toy..."?
Jin Jian's voice suddenly stopped, and he widened his eyes.
Because Munechika was startled by his high-pitched voice, he subconsciously raised his hands to cover his ears.
"H-he..." Jin Jian pointed with a trembling hand before he regained his language system, "Wait, alive?!!"
No way? Really Mikazuki?
What does it mean to be alive? Can it speak?
After reacting chaotically, Mikazuki protected Sochin with his hands and jumped back about two meters, with a stern expression: "Wait, you're being too loud!"
The moon in the sky has become smaller, and perhaps the acceptable volume has also become smaller.
Even if we don’t mention this, in the public places like the corridors of the Honmaru, the owner said that people should make as little noise as possible!
The excitement had not yet ended, but seeing that Sochin Mikazuki had just put down his hands that were covering his ears, Imakaki also took a step back and distanced himself, reflecting on himself, and his tone couldn't help but be a little aggrieved: "...I'm sorry."
But his eyes were always fixed on Munechika Mikazuki.
Even though I don't understand the situation and don't know why Crescent Moon has become like this, it is really so small and cute.
…It’s so small, so small, so small. I feel like I can hold it with one hand.
Kitsunesuke looked left and right and decided not to get involved in the dispute.
Munechika patted his messy hands: "It's okay, I'm not that fragile."
The exchange in the hallway did not continue.
A relatively childish voice interrupted.
"Wait, can you please come inside and talk? Don't make any noise in the corridor."
Looking in the direction where the sound came from, there was a girl standing at the door, about 1.5 meters tall.
She had short hair, wore cute clothes, and had an extremely cool expression.
"Kimatsu, the noise is really too loud, isn't it? Be more careful next time."
"Yes~ I'm sorry, there won't be a next time." Jin Jian muttered vaguely.
After hearing him say this, the girl glanced at Munechika and Kitsunesuke and turned to walk into the castle tower.
"Come in."
After everyone sat down at the round table on the open-air balcony of the castle tower, Imakaki, as the attendant, put the snacks on the table and started eating first with a happy look on his face.
The girl looked at him helplessly but said nothing.
"Hello, I'm Yachiryu, the judge of these two Furimakan and Randoshiro."
While Imakaki was preparing tea and snacks, Ran was not idle either. He first helped Sochin Mikazuki put on the tassels on his head.
Later, I naturally found some cloth, cotton, and needle and thread in Yachiru's room, and made a super small cushion for Munechika.
At this time, it was placed on the tabletop.
Munechika sat underneath him.
"Nice to meet you. I'm Mikazuki Munechika."
Yachiryu nodded: "Well, I heard a lot of nonsense about the situation. Can you tell me what happened before it became like this?"
Munechika knelt upright, thinking.
In fact, if you seek help from other inquisitors, you should be prepared to find something abnormal in them after you tell them the situation.
However, it was somewhat dangerous for him to tell others about this situation, so he naturally had to be more serious. So he raised his head and looked at Hachiru carefully. After looking into her eyes, he felt relieved.
Although they haven't met each other for long, from his perspective, he thinks she is someone he can trust.
Kitsunesuke got a seat and squatted at the edge of the table. After hearing what he said, he looked confused.
"No... Sanrikuzuki-dono shouldn't have done anything wrong..." Yes.
"Blood." Munechika lowered his eyes to hide the emotions in his eyes, interrupted Kitsunesuke's unfinished words, and finished his words, "I touched the master's blood."
Imakaki, who was eating yokan, froze in his tracks, and Ran also slightly widened his eyes and looked over.
When Yachiru heard this, the look in his eyes when he looked at Munechika Mikazuki changed slightly.
Regarding this Mikazuki, Yachiryu was concerned.
Maybe the relationship is closer than simple attention.
Her family is very wealthy, and she actually has some connections in current politics—of course, she has obtained this right through legal trading of her abilities, which is why she can keep a time-space converter in her store.
For an entity like this that can transform time and space only by relying on coordinates and time, the control of current affairs is quite strict.
In contrast, she usually does something for current affairs within the scope of her ability, mostly in a secret boss-subordinate relationship.
The reason why I first noticed this Mikazuki Munechika was because of Hanae.
They are good friends. They have been the closest of friends since Hua Jiang came to save them when they were young.
The other party likes live streaming and is also engaged in the live streaming industry in the real world. Yachiru supports both sides, so when Hanae saw a sword that was live streaming by itself and said he wanted to help him, Yachiru immediately went to investigate.
The result was blank and nothing was found.
The only thing we could tell from the live broadcast was that the opponent's Honmaru was very weak, with only Mikazuki and the Shinger in the beginning.
Later, the number of people in Honmaru must have increased.
Because she also knew that Zhen Sanriku didn't want his actions to be discovered by other people in Honmaru,
Therefore, it is easy to infer that the last live broadcast was interrupted in the middle of the broadcast in order to avoid colleagues in Honmaru.
Even when the sound source of the screen recording is turned up to the maximum volume, you can indeed hear a subtle noise, almost inaudible but able to distinguish it as footsteps through some means.
No matter how you look at it, this Honmaru is definitely illegal.
In short, both for the purpose of investigation and to help Hanae find out the situation, Yachiru has been supporting Sochin Mikazuki to be active on the Internet.
——Use the method of small judgment.
After all, this is the only way to continuously observe the opponent's current situation and the status of the main maru.
The enemy almost never comes to Man'ya, and the Honmaru has no code. Even if they are captured directly, if the Honmaru senses something is wrong, they may just hide further away.
We cannot allow the Honmaru to be out of the control of the current government.
This is not a desire for control, but a responsibility to every Honmaru, sword, and shinjuku.
If there's a problem with the inquisitor in that Honmaru, they'll need to rescue the sword.
If the judge in Honmaru has a conspiracy, they need to prevent the crisis.
…
...If the judges of the Honmaru are in trouble, they will punish them for the two illegal acts of erasing the Honmaru code and hiding the Honmaru's whereabouts, and then understand the situation and provide help.
Current affairs are managed by people, so naturally they cannot take care of everything, and it is inevitable that people's hearts are divided.
But for Yachiru, this is not only the action guideline of the government of the time for issuing a personnel manual, but also her action guideline.
Now that she saw it, I can't just leave it alone, not to mention there's also the factor of Hanae.
She had never expected that Munechika Mikazuki would come to her on his own. Of course, she had no bad intentions, but just wanted to take this opportunity to find out the situation of the other party's Honmaru, and then decide on the next move based on the situation.
The Honmaru cannot be located without the code, and the people in the Data Execution Department also said that it is impossible. So we can look for opportunities from the side. Even if it is just to find out why the code was erased, it is better than doing nothing.
You have to know that the code that the government of time gave to Honmaru cannot be erased simply by the will of the judge.
After hearing the answer from Sochin Mikazuki, according to Yachiryu's knowledge, the sword man will change his form according to this situation.
She knew of only one case.
That is to be awakened by pure spiritual power.
Whether the spiritual power has been away from its owner for a long time, or has been extracted in a special way,
This Sanriku Munechika was ownerless until it came into contact with the blood of his master.
Is this the ownerless Mikazuki Munechika?
She was thinking about the situation of Sochin Mikazuki.
But for their own swords on the table, they would always give priority to the Judge in all situations. After hearing that, their minds were filled with questions: Why would the master of the Crescent Moon bleed?
The Inquisitors don't go to the battlefield, right?
Did he accidentally cut his hand while cooking?
"…Um, are you okay?" asked the inquisitor.
Jin Jian asked with some difficulty.
Ran didn't say anything, but he looked at Munechika Mikazuki on the table with a worried look, but he quickly calmed down.
After all, if something really happened, Munechika Mikazuki should be more worried than them. Now, even if they can't help, it's better not to bring up the other party's sadness.
Munechika looked at Imakaki and quickly understood what they were worried about, and comforted them.
"Well, don't worry."
should……
In fact, he was worried, but in the current situation, there was nothing he could do. He could only do well in the present and return to his original state as soon as possible.
Yachiru picked up the teacup and took a sip: "Imaken, Ran."
"Here!" Jin Jian sat up straight.
"Yes~" He raised his head and smiled.
"Go out first. It's almost time for lunch. Go help Yamaubakiri in the kitchen." Yachiryu put down the teacup and said.
“…Eh~?” Jin Jian made a reluctant sound, but still stood up.
"I understand." Rando Shiro responded and pulled Imakaki out with him.
When the sliding door closed, Yachiru's eyes met Sochin Mikazuki and he sighed.
Don't ask rashly.
What a trouble.
It would be nice if Hua Jiang was here.
"Your condition is probably due to the sudden exposure to the spiritual power of the Judge. I would like to check it more carefully. Can I touch you?" Yachiru looked carefully, not missing any expressions of the two people opposite him, and asked.
Kitsunesuke, who was standing by, didn't show any surprise at all.
It seems that Kitsunesuke knows about it.
Also, this is the only other object that appears in the live broadcast.
However, Yachiryu also guessed the situation of the opponent's Honmaru. It was probably because the person who served as the Shinto Judge did not have enough spiritual power, so a large number of small pantheons were needed to maintain the operation of the Honmaru, and there were also very few swords.
What is more surprising is that he was able to keep the helpless Mikazuki Munechika to help him build the Honmaru.
Who is this holy person?
According to Hanae, even the judges kept it a secret... I don't know if it's true, if it is.
It seems like there is something hidden.
This request was of course acceptable. Munechika took the initiative to stand up and walked in front of Yachiru, nodding slightly: "Then I'll leave it to you."
After the examination, Yachiru looked at his hand.
Indeed, the spiritual power belonging to others flowing in Mikazuki Munechika's body is pitifully small, and it has been considered small before, but this is really... not enough for Mikazuki Munechika to transform into a human form with his sword.
After she informed Munechika Mikazuki of the situation, she stood up and took down a box from the shelf. Inside was a transparent round ball of light.
The transparent sphere is about five centimeters in diameter and is crystal clear and very beautiful.
"This is an ownerless spiritual power ball. Try touching it."
As a sword lacking spiritual power, it will automatically absorb the ownerless spiritual power as long as it comes into contact with it.
Originally, Yachiryu had planned to exchange some information about the other party's Honmaru as a reward for Sochin Mikazuki's recovery, in order to build a long-term friendship and trust relationship that would help her future actions.
but.
I saw the little hand resting on the round spiritual power ball for a long time, but the ball did not disappear.
And... maybe it's because he encountered other spiritual power, but Munechika became smaller.
His body suddenly changed, and Munechika, who was still in a sleepy state, lost his balance and fell onto the transparent sphere.
Munechika realized that he had become smaller again: ...
Yachiru, who hadn’t expected this result at all: …???
Pupil earthquake.jpg.
Then my thoughts went astray for a second.
No, grass, kind of cute.
The author has something to say: It seems you haven’t escaped either.
Munechika went from 15cm to 10cm, even smaller. But lying on a 5cm ball like this, I can only say it's super cute!!
Very good, once again expected plot error (lying flat).
By the way, although I wrote the update time in the copy but didn't say it in the comments, the updates will be around 0:00 in the future (9:00 is really too late_(:з」∠)_), and I will talk about it when there are changes.
...Well, let's discuss adding more chapters.
When I write 4500+ or 5500+, can we give -0.5 bonus points? QAQ! Otherwise, it will be too late!
Collected to 8k to celebrate the extra chapter +1.
The angel's thunder is +2 recently, and the previous accumulated thunder is also +1.
So now I owe...I owe 8 (hitting the wall).
Well, today it’s 5.5k+, so I owe 7.5, let me pay it back slowly.
