Chapter 104 The Master of the House

Let's leave this world together and let Hui live well.

Eri expressed the unspoken choice on behalf of Shiro. Having died once, she was not afraid of death.

But she was afraid that the people she loved would be hurt. After becoming a cursed spirit, her increasingly extreme and resentful thoughts changed Eri's way of thinking a lot.

If she were alive, she would definitely not say that she would let Shin die with her.

But now she is unexpectedly sober. Shen Er cannot live without love, and she is Shen Er's first love.

Rather than letting Shen'er escape from his life in a daze, it is better to let Shen'er leave with me.

At least that way, even happy and blessed.

Eri stretched out her hand, and those hands, which had changed many times but were still dry and withered, gently stroked Zenin Shinji's face.

"That's enough."

She said this sentence completely, and her smiling face made Zenin think he saw Eri for the first time.

The curse she uttered before her death may have been due to Eri's own desire to survive and resentment.

She wanted to stay, watch her children grow up, and accompany and comfort her husband again.

So no matter how open-minded and indifferent she appeared, at the moment of death, Eri was still silently calling for help.

But now, she thought that was enough, Hui had grown into a young man who could stand on his own.

Parents in this world cannot always accompany their children, but lovers can. She lowered her head, curled up slightly, and hugged him tightly as if she wanted to merge with her.

"For richer or poorer, for richer or poorer, in sickness or in health, I will love you and cherish you, and even death cannot separate us."

Eri spoke slowly. These were the marriage vows they had made together. These words were full of love, but at this moment, they became the most twisted and terrifying curse.

Zenin let go of everything for once, and just stared blankly at Eri in front of him. His voice was dry, but he answered as firmly as when they first made their vow: "I do."

The cursed power of the special cursed spirit permeated Zenin Shin'er's body. Every inch of it was filled with her traces, as if she wanted to swallow Shin'er into her stomach.

It was obvious that what they were heading for was not a happy future, but death that would end everything.

But at this moment, it was as if they were in a wedding hall, and they piously and happily vowed to stay together for the rest of their lives.

Eri smiled happily and gave a gentle kiss on Shin'er's forehead. Perhaps she felt something and she returned to Shin'er's red rope.

The door was pushed open, and Zenin Kei came in and was stunned to see the cursed power all over the room, but because it was a familiar mess, he didn't say much.

Seeing that Zenin Shier seemed to be out of shape, he paused and said, "Shier, is Eri okay?"

As the person closest to Eri, Zenin Kei is the one who can best sense Eri's condition.

There is a difference in the final destination of cursed spirits and humans. Eri undoubtedly loves them, but this love can easily be distorted into something like love of eating and killing due to the changes in the instincts of cursed spirits.

Eri has always been very calm, but sometimes, Zenin Kei would worry that Eri would suppress herself too much.

Aren't they standing here now so that Eri can be free?

Although it's not possible to make Eri actually kill someone, it's still possible to let Eri vent her emotions appropriately.

Zenin Hui, who now has a basic grasp of the Zenin family, thought calmly that in a big melting pot like the world of sorcery, no matter how well protected one is, one knows what kind of morality is here.

Of course, he would not go along with those high-ranking officials, but he still knew how to use the necessary methods.

Chan Yuanshener looked at Chan Yuanhui, who had a strong mind, and felt a rare sense of comfort. After all, the child in front of him was raised very well by him.

But he also knew very well that if Zenin Kei knew that he and Eri made such a choice because of him, she would definitely object.

Even this child who is good at taking risks may make unexpected choices.

So of course I can't really tell him everything, and as a father, I know best how to deceive my children.

"Hui, let's go through the ceremony of the head of the family later." Zenin Shener stretched lazily, as if this position was as cheap as cabbage.

Zenin Hui frowned slightly. Although he was not old enough, the existence of ten kinds of shadow magic had basically determined his position.

He did not ask Shier why. After all, Shier had been doing less and less work as the head of the Zen temple in recent years, and most of the work was done by him.

So now it's just an exchange of names, no need to go through any trouble.

"Do I have to do this myself?" Zenin Hui complained, but didn't say much. "Let's go see the cherry blossoms later. I remember Eri likes cherry blossoms."

Zenyuan Shener responded vaguely, stroked the red rope, sat quietly on the sofa, and listened to Zenyuan Hui's expectant words.

——————————

After the position of the head of the family was officially handed over, Zenyuan Shen'er went "crazy".

This was the opinion of most people in the world of sorcery. They bluntly called Tianyou Tyrant, who had occupied the position of head of the Zenin family for decades like an opportunity, a lunatic.

It does not seem strange that the behavior of the Zen temple was evaluated in that way.

He tried to conceal but not hide the fact that he had assassinated countless high-ranking officials, frequently went in and out of the places where the major cursed spirits were, and did everything that was forbidden by the rules of the curse world.

But even so, no one could produce evidence that he did it, and the head of the Zenin family protected him with rare strength.

It’s not like Zen Temple Hui hadn’t asked before, but it was clear that Zen Temple had no intention of even giving him an answer.

In reality, this was just a collaboration with Gojo Satoru that was done behind everyone's back.

Zenin Jiner is the most conspicuous sword, and Gojo Satoru is the one who cleans up the termites in secret.

After Gojo Satoru, who was completely different from the Son of God when he was a child, killed his best friend with his own hands, he went straight to Zenin Jin'er.

Gojo Satoru knew that Zenin Jiner had been working with a certain sorcerer, and now, he directly asked Zenin Jiner to work with him to change the world of sorcery.

After Liuyan misjudged his best friend's bitter summer, he would never misjudge anyone's attitude again.

Even Zenin couldn't believe that one day he would be able to shake up the world of curse. If it were him decades ago, he would have thought he was crazy.

But maybe he was really crazy. After all, no normal person would be willing to live and die with a cursed spirit.

Before leaving, he just wanted to clean up the garbage dump of the magic world, so that his children might feel more at ease when they are in the magic world.

Chanyuan even felt that he was not a qualified father, and even did many things that were not good enough for Chanyuan Hui. It seemed that after Chanyuan Hui was born, it was he, the father, who had always brought him pain.

He could not change this fact, he could only do something to make Huineng in the Zen temple live happier and freer.

This is a favor from him and Eri. How could Zenin Jūrō really just leave without doing anything?

Because the noose was too difficult to handle, Zenin even went directly to Tengen, a sorcerer who had also lived for thousands of years.

Tianyuan's barrier technique is most useful to sorcerers, but to Tianyou Jujutsu, it is as fragile as a piece of paper.

Who would have thought that Tianyuan, who had lived for so long, had already become half a cursed spirit, and his strength was too weak even for Zen Temple.

Those threats about justice and the future are completely useless to the monastery or even this scoundrel. Who cares?

Does Tengen care? If you don't tell me what I want, you and the Jujutsu world will be destroyed together.

If it wasn't for the fact that he could easily lose his temper in a fight with Gojo Satoru and die together, which would violate his oath, Zenin would have even chosen to turn the entire Jujutsu world into Zenin Kei, a direct way.

He learned everything from Tengen, and after a long silence, he told Gojo Satoru everything he knew.

Anyway, this person wants to change the world of sorcery, so let him worry about it. He doesn't want to think so much about the world of sorcery. It would be better to have more meals with his family.

Thinking this, he slowly returned home, and was then caught by Zenin Kei, who questioned him about leaving without saying goodbye.

Zenin Jiner took him home and selectively told him a few things, such as the existence of the noose, Gojo Satoru's plan, and his thoughts.

"Tengen has a way to cut off your contact with Eri. After everything is settled, I want to take Eri out for a walk," Zenin Jiner said calmly, "The world is so big, Eri should see it all."

It wasn't a smart lie, but Zenin Kei believed it because he trusted his family unconditionally.

As long as they give an answer, this young master who is cold and stern in front of the higher-ups will believe it as foolishly as he did when he was a child.

Zenin even clumsily left a lot of postcards for this lie, and when he had free time, he would frown and discuss with Eri what to write on them.

The beautiful scenery in the world is the suicide note that Shinji and Eri left for Zenin Kei.

But before everything was about to end, a small accident happened. No one knew how Tengen did it, nor did anyone know that Zenoin Naoya's unwillingness could even turn him into a special-grade cursed spirit.

In order to end all this, Zenin Shinji took Eri's hand and left this world together.

As a result, I opened my eyes again, and left in the literal sense, and came to another so-called parallel world.

——————————

The memories seem to last a long time, but they are only a few moments.

Zenin Shinji came back to his senses and lowered his head to look at Fushiguro Megumi who was pulling him.

Although he wanted to, he just couldn't harden his heart at this moment.

This is also Megumi, the Fushiguro Megumi who grew up through many ups and downs. Is he going to cause harm to the other party again just for the so-called good of him?

Even though Zenin is a scumbag, he would not do such a thing.

He blinked slowly, as if he could feel the heat of the red rope on his wrist.

A light sigh was blown away by the wind, and Zenin even raised his hand and rubbed Fushiguro Megumi's head with a rare gentle force.

"Don't worry, I won't leave."

——At least not yet.
