Chapter 71 Chapter 71 Magical Girls Group Debut
Although Yagen Toushirou and the others tried to dispel the alienation from Mikazuki Toushirou in a joking manner at first, they all quieted down when they saw Mikazuki Toushirou's serious expression.
Seeing that the brothers were finally willing to correct their attitude, Sanriku Toushirou breathed a sigh of relief - before, she was a little overwhelmed by the excessive enthusiasm of these brothers.
It's good like this now, and it's a good opportunity to talk about those things.
"I did stay in Osaka Castle."
After finding a place to sit down, Sanriku Toushirou didn't care whether he would get dusty or not.
Although judging from her previous experience of rolling on the ground, it was unlikely that her clothes would get clean.
Nodding his chin and looking at his brothers, Sanriku Toushirou recalled for a moment before continuing, "I heard strange noises during the fire...someone you call the Time Travel Army broke in."
"I wasn't that strong back then, and it was a shame I couldn't beat them."
"But before I was taken away, I found an opportunity to escape, and then I encountered the turbulence of time and space."
"Because of the force, I passed out. When I woke up again, I had fallen into a strange world, where I experienced some... well, not very pleasant things."
After vaguely recalling this experience, Mikazuki Toushirou waved to his brothers and said calmly, "It was also in this world that I met the creature known as the Incubator."
"Of course, these despicable guys call themselves Kyubey."
At this point, Sanriku Toushirou's eyes darkened, a hint of murderous intent surfacing in them. "These despicable predators are best at deceiving others with a harmless appearance and then bewitching them."
"Using the promise of fulfilling wishes as bait, he ultimately backstabs everyone who made a wish and harvests their souls."
"But this is just the beginning of what they're doing."
"When the Time Travelers arrived here, there was a brief conflict between the Incubators and the Time Travelers, but soon, the two sides reached a consensus."
"The incubators have set their sights on the Shinsengumi... They want their souls."
"Because they possess spiritual power, the souls of the Shinsengumi drive them even more madly. The Time Travel Army is responsible for providing such an opportunity, throwing the Shinsengumi of the Time Government into that lost world."
Then, they got separated from the Fusangshen and fell into a world full of incubators. The fate of those Shinsengumi can be imagined.
"At that time, I was lucky enough to meet a Shinsengumi, and all my understanding of the Time Government came from her."
In fact, what Mikazuki Toushirou didn't say was that she had made an agreement with the Shinsengumi at that time.
She had promised that if she had the chance to return to the Time Government, she would go to the Shinsengumi's main palace. Because he had accepted her when she was panicked and confused, taught her many things, and even told her about the brothers' interactions and described a beautiful home to her.
Honmaru is another home for these lost Tsukumogami.
But such a gentle Shinsengumi, such an important Shinsengumi to her, her future Shinsengumi, was hunted down by the Incubator.
It was at that moment that Mikazuki Toushirou, filled with confusion and panic, began to show signs of falling.
but……
"Can't."
The Shinsengumi, whose form had been distorted and lost its human form, touched her head one last time and whispered, "Mikazuki, you can't... This behavior is wrong."
"Your brothers will be sad..."
"Don't pollute your own divinity for such lowly creatures. You are a god, you should reside in the clouds, untainted by stains."
Those were the last words the Shinsengumi left for her.
All the progress of the Dark Fall was forcibly interrupted, but Sanriku Toushirou still had black marks.
It was also at that time that the World Consciousness contacted Mikazuki Toushirou - in such a broken world where all life was about to be strangled by the Incubator, the World Consciousness used the last bit of its remaining strength to make a request to Mikazuki Toushirou.
The will of the world uses all its remaining strength, power, and blessings in exchange for granting Mikazuki Toushirou powerful authority and the power to directly obliterate souls.
The price is that Mikazuki Toushirou has to wipe out all the hatchers.
At that time, the world will had no possibility of survival. All its vitality had been plundered by the incubators. However, in despair, the world will saw the only chance of survival and had the idea of revenge.
At that moment, all the dark thoughts engulfed the world's will, causing it to make an astonishing gamble.
Put all the chips on Mikazuki Toushirou in exchange for the possibility of dragging the murderer who killed him to death together with him.
Fortunately, the World Will Beholder won, and Mikazuki Toushirou did kill all the incubators in that world in the end.
The ruined earth was filled with rotting corpses, gloomy clouds covered the sky, a blood moon and a golden sun coexisted, there were dry riverbeds, dead plants, and cracked earth.
In the devastated doomsday, only Sangetsu Toushirou sat alone on a throne made of the corpses of the incubators, quietly waiting for the fall of this world - along with herself.
Perhaps it was because Sanriki Toushirou's crazy massacre was too horrific that her name spread among the incubator group.
In the end, the group of emotionless creatures experienced fear for the first time, and even risked perishing together in this apocalyptic world to explore whether Mikazuki Toushirou died in this world.
But it was precisely because of their fear that Sanriku Toushirou caught their scent and discovered that the hatcher was not completely dead yet.
With the thought of living, Sangetsu Toushirou tried to break through the barrier and go to the base camp of the Incubator, but in that situation, with the fall of the Incubator and Doomsday, Sangetsu Toushirou ultimately failed, and had to return to his original body because of his serious injuries.
It was at that time that Yagen Toushirou and his companions, who had strayed into this place, found Mikazuki Toushirou and saved her by accident.
However, the shock and injuries were too severe. After waking up, Mikazuki Toushirou split himself into two parts in order to maintain his own safety. One part was the 'Mikazuki Toushirou' who was no different from an ordinary person. The other part inherited most of the authority, power and all memories, and was the current Mikazuki Toushirou.
“So, I am not the complete me now.”
Playing with his original body, Sanriku Toushirou stood up and dusted off his clothes, saying casually, "When the other me wakes up, pay attention to your lines and don't let her notice anything is wrong."
"After all, the other me is too timid..."
Even too simple.
Because that is Mikazuki Toushirou, who has never experienced all this and remains in the state of staying in Osaka Castle. He is the past that she can never return to, her distant and beautiful past.
It is precisely because of the desire to preserve the past that the current Mikazuki Toushirou does not want her to remember everything and does not want herself to become complete - with her current abilities, she can completely hunt down that group of incubators, so let her past self remain as she was originally.
She envied Mikazuki Toushirou, who was so simple and naive, who would get angry because of his brother's pranks, feel depressed because he couldn't buy the dessert he wanted, and want to cry because of some injuries.
"As for me...it doesn't matter what happens."
Sanriku Toushirou lowered his eyes, looked at his own hands and chuckled softly. Although he looked like a child, he exuded a dead air.
"But she is different. She is the one who can get all the good things, who should laugh and play in the sun, and who should be loved by everyone."
"I'll do all the dirty work, as long as 'I' can stay that way."
Moreover, the two of them were originally one. In the past, she was spoiled by her brothers, and she was satisfied with it.
"That's not right."
Yagen Toushirou took off his glasses, then forcefully held his sister in his arms. He then spoke slowly in a deep voice, "No matter which Mikazuki Toushirou she is...she is our sister."
They are all children of the Toushirou family, their sisters, and the blades they deeply love and want to protect.
"So, whether it's 'Mikazuki Toushirou' or just Mikazuki Toushirou, she is my beloved sister."
"Please rely on us for the rest of your time."
Wu Hu Tui rarely lost his weak look and stared at his sister with a determined expression.
"After all, we are brothers."
Goto Toushirou, Ran Toushirou, and Mori Toushirou came over with a smile and rubbed their sister's head.
"If you can't even do this..."
Hirano Toushirou and Maeda Toushirou dragged out their words, and Atsu Toushirou, Akita Toushirou, Shinano Toushirou, and Hakata Toushirou beside them joined in tacit understanding: "Then we are really remiss."
"After all, protecting our sister is what we should do."
Catfish Tail Toushirou poked Bonebane Toushirou, and the white-haired wakizashi nodded, repeating earnestly, "This is our job."
"so……"
Yagen Toushirou rubbed Mikazuki Toushirou's head again and laughed.
“Please lean on us.”
Ichigo Ichijin hugged his younger siblings in his arms, a gentle smile in his honey-gold eyes.
"As your elders, we will always be your safe haven."
Minghu muttered in a low voice, and Onimaru Kunitsuna beside him nodded silently.
"Because we are all Toushirou, we are a family."
So no matter what happens, we have to bear it together!
“That’s what family means.”
There was a rare hint of warmth in the humanoid AI's mechanical voice, and a faint smile even appeared on Shirayama Yoshimitsu's lips.
Awataguchi Toushirou, we will always be family.
