Finale 04
The girl locked in the cage was frightened by the sight of so many people and started crying. They looked a little younger than Maki Mayi.
Also a pair of twins.
According to the information obtained from the technique, both of them possessed the technique. This was truly rare. Twins were identified as the same person... Were they fraternal twins? They looked very similar... It was incredibly rare for both to possess the technique.
Anyway, let them out first.
You have learned a lot of unconventional techniques.
Just picking the lock.
You don't usually break into homes.
Too violent.
"Hey, what are you doing, woman? Are you in cahoots with these two disaster stars?!"
Geto Xiayou held down the man and woman to prevent them from coming forward to disturb you.
"First, this is my first time in this place. Second, I am carrying out humanitarian aid. Finally, the detention you are carrying out is illegal. No one has given you permission to do this."
The cage was opened, but they didn't dare to come out.
Not interested in dolls.
I'm not interested in pretty decorations either.
Too scared?
You sighed helplessly.
"Are you locking them up because you think they are responsible for the deaths and disappearances of villagers?"
"What else? These two people are the culprits of this series of events..." The fat man didn't think he was wrong.
"No." Geto Suguru's head was splitting with pain. "The cause of the incident has been eliminated by me."
Jay was very angry.
Because of his own experience, Jay identified very strongly with the identity of a sorcerer. Seeing a sorcerer being treated like this, he must have been extremely annoyed.
This is the trigger.
"If the culprit can be caught so easily, then why do we come here?" You still like to reason with others.
One of the girls' techniques... killing people should be easy.
"But they're both mentally ill. They've repeatedly attacked the villagers with incredible strength," the fat man continued. He seemed to realize he was a bit on the wrong side of the fence. But facing you, he still puffed out his chest proudly.
"My grandson was almost killed by the two of them!" the thin woman chimed in.
The two girls finally responded: "That's because he was the first one—" The girls' response seemed to touch a switch, and the two adults began to abuse the two minors.
"Shut up, monster!"
"Your parents are just like you!! They only cause trouble for the village!"
"I should have killed you when you were babies—"
【Don't be afraid, Jie and I will protect you. 】
Curse spirit? Jay's curse spirit? It said... "No... Don't be afraid..." Jay, really. Still so gentle. He also knew that curse spirits could be used in this way.
It's been ages since I've muted someone. My ears are finally clear. No, it seems the only person who's been muted is Naoya. Naoya... Naoya's place in your heart is getting smaller and smaller... There are so many people in the Zenin family.
The person who was probably the happiest about my disappearance was Naoya.
【???】
【what happened? 】
"I'm sorry, your words are so rude. I have temporarily deprived you of your ability to speak."
【monster……】
[This woman is also a monster...]
It’s better not to present these messy things.
"By the way, I can read minds." This explanation is the most understandable, and you're a little used to it. "If you think cursing me in your mind will ease your fear, then go ahead. Although I don't know what I'll do next."
I can’t see anymore…
Blind...
"Looking at someone like that is extremely rude. If you can't learn to treat others equally..." You sighed, "I'm doing this for your own good. People like you, I'd sue you for child abuse and you'd win. Not only did you abuse children, you even threatened to kill people. Is there anyone who doesn't know that murder is illegal these days?"
"Japan hasn't abolished the death penalty yet."
"I know there's a civilized society out there."
"Knowing the law and breaking it is an even greater crime." The next thing to be deprived of is - "You will be dumb and blind for two days first, get out."
Why aren't my legs obeying me...?
【Witch!!!】
Because they couldn't see, the two of them stumbled for a while before they found their way to the door and ran out. When the four of you were alone in the room, Geto Satsuma spoke to you.
"はつちゃん."
"Jay thinks the punishment is too light?"
Geto Suguru observed your expression and finally nodded.
"I don't have the right to judge others. I'm responsible for punishment... In fact, I don't even want to punish. I don't want to see others in pain or fear."
"Although they have indeed gone too far... let the law punish them. I will use the power of the Zenin family to take the quickest possible route."
"Jay still not satisfied?"
Geto Suguru didn't talk to you.
"Come out, the bad guys have been driven away." The two of them were close to Jie. Jie ran out as soon as he shouted.
"I've always been popular with children. Today..."
"The look on Yuki's face was so ugly that it scared them both."
"I look terrible?" You touched your face. You clearly manage your facial expressions very well.
"Hero is obviously very angry, right?"
Why not kill them!
Why not let them die!
"Look at them both, they are covered with bruises."
How can you treat a sorcerer like this!
[Monster] [Killed]
Despicable monkeys and filthy maggots.
This was all becoming unbearable.
"This wound-healing spell is still under experimentation. But it shouldn't have any side effects."
"You can use your own magic, so it shouldn't be difficult for you to inject magic power into the talisman?" It's a pity that this talisman has almost no effect on you.
Own magic power.
Only Glass can use the Reversal Technique to heal others. Others can use a shortened version of the Reversal Technique with the aid of a spell... which is somewhat more convenient. This way, the sorcerer's ability to protect themselves becomes stronger.
"Yes... that's right. Very smart." Geto squatted down and stroked the two girls' heads. Then you became the tallest and most conspicuous person.
"Jay, I have something to ask you."
Xia Yujie's pupils shrank.
"Jay really wanted to kill them. You'd already done it even without me being here, right? Jay was even begging me to do it too."
"Tell me why, Jay."
The ice is three feet thick, and it didn't freeze overnight. You actually didn't know this all along. Jay's gentleness and kindness... he was just deceiving you!
"You won't tell me?" You were so angry that you laughed at Geto. "If you don't tell me, I will-"
There's no need to hide anymore.
"If you want to watch it, then go ahead and watch it."
"Jay!"
"Don't you want to see it? Then はつちゃん can also use your technique to make me..." You squatted down and covered his mouth: "No, I don't want to do that. That's not true kindness. I want the truly kind Geto Suguru."
No, no, no... I want Jay to go back, back to the technical high school.
Otherwise, only Wu and Nozomi would be left.
no.
no……
Don't cry, はつちゃん. Hey, don't cry.
This wasn't the time to cry. You had to argue with Jie, tell him he was wrong—"Who says I'm not kind now?" Xia Yujie said with a smile. The two girls snuggled in his arms. Children are most sensitive to good and evil. They can sense when you're angry, but they don't know why, so they stay away from you. But—Jie was angry too. He had such strong murderous intent, couldn't they sense it?
"Whose side are you on?"
Which side? Why ask this question? You looked at the two girls and said calmly, "I'm on the right side."
"Are we wrong then?" they both said in unison, snuggling a little tighter in Geto's arms. They didn't care whether they were right or wrong. They simply chose the one who stood completely by their side. It made them feel safe.
"You're not wrong." Even when he was ostracized in the village, he only used the technique to protect himself. Who was telling the truth, who was lying? Who was speaking sincerely, who was speaking falsely? All of this should be exposed before you.
"Did Jay only want to kill those two people, or did he want to kill everyone in the village?"
"you guess?"
"Jay!" You wanted to reach out and grab his collar, but someone was already holding it. The two girls looked at you at the same time, and Geto Suguru also looked at you: "Hatsu-chan, you can look at it yourself. By the way, Hantsu-chan, don't you want to hug one?" He gestured for you to hug all three of them.
Jay completely let himself go.
It only takes a moment to take off the mask.
Masks that have been removed will not be put back on.
Now that it's known, there's no need to keep it hidden.
Why does Jay continue to be a sorcerer?
Didn't he say he wanted to protect the weak? You even argued with him about it. Why did it come to this?
You gave them a hug anyway, then asked the two girls, "Do you know what 'death' means?"
"Mom and Dad are simply 'dead'."
"If you die, you will never see me again."
"We don't want to see those people either."
"Where's Jay?"
"Aren't they quite right?"
"Do you understand 'kill'?"
"If you mean what that guy did..."
"Then we understand."
That guy? You mean the cursed spirit in the village?
"Why..." There was no need to ask why.
Ordinary people can't see cursed spirits, but they can see the cursers. When an anomaly occurs, the first to be affected are the cursers themselves. Cursers must learn to disguise their anomalies. For example, Takeyu, for example, Suzuki.
Born into a family of sorcerers, Wu would never pretend. Only when his sorcery skills became widely known would the abnormal become normal.
It's a pity... I don't have time to do this.
"Hatsu-chan is feeling down... You were wondering, 'Why didn't you tell the villagers it was a cursed spirit that killed them?' But then you figured it out. They can't see it, so they won't believe it."
【monkey. 】
You looked up suddenly, "Jay!"
"I'm so sorry that I heard it."
"Who told you to call ordinary people that?!"
"Yeah, yeah, don't be angry, Takashi..."
"How could I not be angry! This is the derogatory term used by the Zenin family to refer to ordinary people! Where did you learn that? I've never said that, have I? Ryoko wouldn't say that either..."
Yes...very much.
"When did Jay start thinking like this?"
"It was the summer you were in a coma... I can't remember exactly." Geto Suguru touched his chin, "Hatsu-chan was away, and Goko and I were busy. This summer... Don't worry, Hatsu-chan. I will go back with you."
"What if I don't go back with you?"
"How could that be?" Geto said in surprise. He was silent for a moment and then asked, "Hatsu-chan, are you still angry with me? It's really okay. Just treat me like one of those old antiques in your family. You are not..."
"Is it because you're too tired? It's normal to feel resentful towards ordinary people... I understand. Jay—"
"No, はつちゃん."
"Then why—"
"Why? They don't deserve it. But if はつちゃん is willing to save ordinary people, I will do it with you."
Not for me, not for me.
I can't afford other people's expectations.
"Don't you have your own ideas?"
"My thoughts? My thoughts..." Xia Yujie smiled and said, "Hatsuchan, do you want to listen to them?"
"Can't Jie tell me?" I couldn't laugh anymore. Should I tell Jie? No, he's like this, I have to go back to the technical secondary school with him. It's evening now... there's still time. Just say I want to see Wu soon and rush back at night—Jie won't be a curse caster.
"Will you help me if you tell me?"
"I don't do anything illegal or criminal."
"That's a shame."
"There's nothing to regret. We'll leave now."
"Now? Yeah, let's go to a hotel in the city to rest..."
"Go straight back to the technical college."
"Go back directly? Xia Yujie can't accept this suggestion, "Don't stay up late, はつちゃん."
"If I don't go back, Wu will tear down the technical high school. Teacher Ye Mo will be so worried that he will turn bald." This is the truth.
Enlightenment... Enlightenment.
"Okay." Geto Suguru compromised.
"What about these two girls?"
The two girls hugged Geto Suguru tightly.
"Have you and Satoru also adopted two children?"
"Jie wants to adopt them... It's not impossible." You pondered, "Let them live with Hui and Tsu Miki for now. The house is quite spacious. Children this young probably can't live in a technical high school." You patted the two girls' heads. Girls...Jie will have to do more than just his own hair from now on.
Tsumeki...
“That’s not Wuhe…”
"If I say yes, then it's OK."
"He is so domineering."
"Satoru and I rarely stay overnight there. The technical college is more convenient. So don't worry."
"Do you know how to get out of the mountain?"
The two girls looked at each other and shook their heads.
"We haven't been out."
“We were locked up for a long time.”
"Jay, calm down. You're popping a vein."
"How can I stay calm, はつちゃん."
You take a deep breath.
Well, I want to bring Jie An back safely.
That kind of tragedy... is too bad. Why should I tell you how many people in the village Jay killed?
You open the door.
Uh oh, being besieged.
You made a decision in your heart for a second.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing. Let's go out."
"I thought Yuki would be retaliated against."
"That's not right, Jay. They're all so scared of me..." Instead of walking side by side, you let the two girls walk in the middle, each holding one. They've been locked up for so long, it's hard for them to walk. You should keep Jay away from them. Seeing them would remind him of the inhumane treatment they've endured.
But... [Who says I'm not kind now?]
"Just like mom and dad."
"What nonsense are you talking about, Mimiko. Mom and Dad are dead."
Seeing the two people arguing, Xia Yujie interrupted and changed the subject: "Do your parents have the same 'mysterious powers' as you do?"
"Don't you have it too?" the two people asked in unison.
"My parents don't have any."
"Neither did my parents."
"はつちゃん?"
"Shi'er was called a 'monkey,' but what about Uncle Shinichi, Shi'er's father? I really can't figure this out."
"Maybe it's because Shi'er wasn't born after ten months of pregnancy. He doesn't understand the hardships of a woman's pregnancy. Men can enjoy the fruits directly. Just like my uncle Naobi, Naoya has several brothers, but I've only met Naoya."
"Naoya... Naoya's younger brother? Is he also a magician?"
"Naoya likes to bully the ordinary members of the Zenin family. I hate him."
"Are you trying to insinuate me?"
"Jie doesn't care about bullying. Naoya only takes pleasure in the suffering of others, asserting his own superiority. Jie won't do that. Jie wants to...kill them cleanly."
"I can easily find the remnants of Hatsuchan's cursed power now. Were all these people involved just now?"
"I didn't hide it from Jay. Since they didn't do it, let them go."
Didn’t work? What did I mean by “didn’t work”?
"Takashi is just going to let them leave and go back to their respective homes?"
"What else does Jay want? They don't deserve the death penalty anyway."
If we weren't strong enough, we would have died a hundred times over! They'd already threatened to kill those two girls! They did that... did that... it was impossible not to kill them. If it was Nanami or Haibara who came, they'd make the same choice as us... and then... then the entire village of over a hundred people would besiege us, and following the rules would only limit our ability.
There is a high probability that I will be trapped here, and then... then I will end up like these two girls.
Spell rules...
I will be sentenced as a curser and become the target of punishment.
Hikari's technique...
"Can I do things if I'm still the director?"
"Yes. What's wrong?"
"What are you going to do, はつちゃん, is it the same thing you did to those two people just now?"
"It's more extreme. Sexually, spiritually... What they love most is seeing people wake up from a sweet dream."
Sweet dream?
"That's right. Everyone has desires. Some desires can't be fulfilled in reality, but they can be fulfilled in dreams. If you could fall into a deep sleep for a long time, how would that be different from reality? But reality is reality. The huge gap between returning to reality from a beautiful dream can be excruciating."
"Is this a punishment?"
"Achieving the heart is the best way. There are also measures that can make people speechless and legs unable to walk. But the most terrifying thing is..." You paused, "to make people realize that nothing else exists except themselves."
“What if someone wasn’t afraid of being alone?”
"There's no such person. Humans are social animals. I'm not lonely, I'm just not alone long enough. Our perception of time can be adjusted."
Ryoumen Sukuna...you touched the bag.
It's not a human.
"How do we get out of the mountains? Just grab a random villager..."
That skinny woman came out of nowhere and tried to grab you, but of course she couldn't touch you.
She was very sensible and didn't touch you again, but pointed to her mouth.
[We were wrong... Please forgive us, my Lords...]
"What is she talking about?" How annoying. Don't these people understand the saying "out of sight, out of mind"?
"Admit your mistake."
"Oh."
"If I say I'm going to be banned for two days, I'm going to be banned for two days."
[Okay, okay...I'll do as you say...]
[It's getting late, why don't you stay here? We'll treat you well!]
【Really! Everything we say is true!】
It’s the truth.
"No, we'll leave immediately. The night won't bother us."
"I'm afraid of the dark." Is this girl's name Mimiko? It's Mimiko you're holding. I don't know their last names. For now, I'll call them that.
You are not afraid of the dark.
"Stay. She wants you to stay, right?"
"Stay, sister."
elder sister……
【Why? 】
【We want you to stand on our side. 】
"No. Jay, let's get out of here."
"Yeah, I'm listening."
Mimiko is talking to Jay.
"Hatsu-chan, you can't carry Mimiko, right? I'm a little worried about walking with the two of them at night... Although I don't want to stay here... I want to live in the best house in the village."
[Yes, yes! This is a matter of course!]
Then I have to go back first - I have to go back with Jay. What if he can't control himself here alone...
Wu...Nano...everyone.
If you stay tonight, it will be too late tomorrow.
How can I do this?
