The Self-cultivation of the Passerby Male Protagonist

"While we were still worried about the coming war, he came up with a plan so perfect that it was almost impeccable, as skillfully as if he had done the same thing before."

"We once doubted him, because his appearance was too unreasonable, and his appearance solved all difficulties, even he appeared deliberately to help us build Gensokyo."

"However, our friends all choose to believe him. We don't know the reason, but we also have an indescribable sense of familiarity with him, and it can be said to be a sense of intimacy."

"Thinking about it now, it should be because we both have the same abilities as him, which made us have such a ridiculous illusion."

"He is obviously a sneaky villain who wears a mask to hide his real appearance, but he can make us all choose to trust him at the same time. I have to say that this is also an unexplainable question."

"But in any case, his presence made our plan more smooth."

"Monsters, human beings, all of them are unknowingly being manipulated by us, using war as a bargaining chip, and winning or losing as a price. We are moving towards the beautiful future that our dreams come true."

"The smooth and pleasant cooperation has almost completely dispelled our vigilance. Before that day, we almost treat him as a friend. Really, it's just a little bit worse."

"So, we absolutely cannot forgive, Dragon God, that despicable person who betrayed us and deceived us, only his death can eliminate this resentment."

The waves on the bright surface are not terrible, but the undercurrent hidden deep below is the biggest murderous opportunity.

Yakumo Zi's self-cultivation has always been very good, so it is definitely not easy to make her tremble slightly when she speaks, compared to her hatred for Dragon God.

Well, the vengeance she spoke of—

"There are two reasons for guarding Gensokyo," Yakumo Zi raised a finger lightly and said, "First, this place means a lot to us, so we must guard it."

"And the second—"

The moment the resentment that had been suppressed for a long time broke out, Wu Ye was enveloped in a sense of suffocation as if his whole body had sunk into the bottom of a cold lake.

Yakumo Zi said in a mockingly sharp voice: "Isn't it very interesting to take revenge on him with the masterpiece he has worked so hard to complete?"

"..."

To be honest, it's not that Wuya can't understand Yakumo Zi's thoughts, but more is... lament.

"Gensokyo is a very common existence. All the monsters, humans, and even gods in it, we are sure to unify them."

That is the self-confidence of a monster sage, Yakumo Zi will never do things that are not sure, and naturally she will not aim at nothing.

"This Gensokyo is the fortress against that guy. All the power here is prepared for the war that will come in the future."

"Is he very strong?" Wu Ye suddenly asked: "Dragon God, is he very powerful?"

Speaking of this, Yakumo Zi was silent for a while, and then said: "Very strong."

She said in a tone that seemed unwilling but vaguely disdainful: "The Dragon God is the strongest existence we have ever seen. If we are alone, I am afraid that even the conditions for fighting cannot be established."

"..."

Wu didn't know how strong the Dragon God was, but he knew how terrifying Yakumo Zi was, and even the majestic monster sage was so flatly inferior. How strong could the legendary Dragon God be?

The reason for establishing Gensokyo is Yakumo Zi's dream.

The reason for protecting Gensokyo is Yakumo Zi's revenge for the present.

Even though he knew that what he said might be nonsense, Wu Ye still spoke——

"Then, Zi, Hakurei Miko is also..."

"...We have sacrificed everything and lost everything to get to this point," Yakumo Zi pointed to his heart and said, "Here, I can't feel anything for a long time. If you want to resent, just feel free." It's okay to hate us."

"It's so unfair. Why would they, who obviously did nothing wrong, risk their lives in vain for your revenge."

"Youkai have been selfish from the very beginning, Takeya, don't you understand that?"

"I don't want to talk to you about virtue or something, but it doesn't matter if it's just Reimu, or even if there's only one person, I want to...!"

"Look at the reality, Takeya. In this cruel and miserable world, even if you hold on to hope tightly and never let go, you will eventually wake up and find that it is just a ridiculous dream."

"Our reason is selfishness, so Jing's thoughts may be more in line with your values. After all, Reimu is also a special existence for you, and it is precisely because of this that we choose to tell you everything."

Yakumo Zi looked at Takeya quietly, then slowly stretched out her hand: "We like you, Takeya, so let's be friends with us."

"Purple? What are you talking about, we are not..."

"No, Wu Ye, you didn't understand what we meant."

Yakumo Zi shook her head: "Work hard for the hope that can never be realized, or see the reality clearly and work hard so that the tragedy will not happen again. This choice has more important meaning."

"I don't understand……"

"Then let's say it another way."

Yakumo Zi slowly took Takeya's hand: "Become a monster, Takeya."

Chapter 38 Joining forces

"Wu Ye, where did he go?"

Reimu, who even dragged Penglai Renmei Hong from Renzhi with a mop, unexpectedly found that Wu Ye had disappeared, which made her a little unhappy.

A feeling of being tricked by others arises spontaneously, and Reimu subconsciously blames Takeya, although the truth is not far from this.

"Let go, you stingy witch!"

At this time, Meihong finally broke free from Reimu, and this was also thanks to the fact that the other party was struggling with Takeya's problem.

Rubbing her numb wrist, Mei Hong was literally dragged here by Reimu.
