[Tutor] The glory of Narita May
Chapter 96 Si No. de.91
The night was deep, and in great contrast to the heavy mood in May, was the extremely clear sky with a huge full moon hanging above.
The annex of the Iwakura family is located on the high hill in the north of Kodai-in, close to the skyline. Compared with the main house facing south, the annex that is very close to the hillside gives people a darker and more gloomy feeling.Although the interior still maintains a pure Japanese style, the exterior is black and red. It is said that this is because the building material is cut lava, while the sharp-pointed iron fences like spears and the window frames painted black Shows a kind of creepy strange feeling.
It was in this annex that the youkai lived, and her mother was imprisoned.
On both sides of the path paved with cobblestones, there is snow that is half the height of the calf, and the cold winter wind pierces the bone marrow. The paper lanterns hanging on the doorposts and writing "Yancang" with a brush flicker with erratic light , and the palpitatingly bright moonlight reflected the girl's pale face.After inspecting the door with tacks embedded in it with solemn eyes for a moment, after confirming that there was no enchantment on it, Wuyue pushed the door open and entered.
However, there are already enemies waiting for her there.The cloaked man whom I met a few hours ago, one of Iwakura Takashi's twelve shikigami.
"Master Wuyue, did you choose this time to visit on purpose? For Mr. Tomoyo? But have you ever thought about it? If you see you who are so ignorant of etiquette, as a mother who has not fulfilled the responsibility of discipline, Mr. Tomoyo will probably Feel extremely ashamed.”
The man's tone was contemptuous and lazy, and anyone could hear the disdain and sarcasm in it.After finishing his speech, he, who was originally floating above the pond in the atrium, stood with his hands behind his back on the bluestone road in front of Wuyue in the blink of an eye. A gust of wind blew past, making his dark cloak rattle.
"I remember I warned you a long time ago, don't use that mouth of yours to mention your mother's name again." Wu Yue's face, which was as delicate as an ice sculpture, didn't have much expression, her eyes flew straight past the man and landed on the Japanese-style building behind , she said coldly: "Also, beast, you are blocking my way, get out of the way immediately."
Time seemed to freeze for a moment, and in the next second, low laughter came from all directions in the large and empty silent courtyard, which was like the hissing sound of a snake spitting out a letter.
"Such an arrogant tone, should it be said to be a family tradition?" Shrugging his shoulders disapprovingly, the man really took a few steps back.While making way for Wuyue, he said in a weird way: "It's just that I hope you don't just inherit this aspect."
The straight eyebrows were slightly frowned, just when Wu Yue was wondering how easy he would be to talk so much, dozens of things exuding a strange aura floated up from the darkness, formed a circle by coincidence, and slowly approached her.
"Master Wuyue, it depends on your ability to save Master Zhishi or not."
Glancing at the black-haired girl surrounded by many low-level shikigami, he turned and walked forward, with a malicious smile on the corner of his mouth exposed outside the cloak, "It's different from the training of playing house when I was young. If you are not careful, you may really die if you have no qualifications—”
What forcibly covered up his leisurely words was the mournful howl that resounded through the entire mansion at almost the same moment, followed by the girl's calm voice that made people feel cold all over her body .
"Bastard, I don't seem to understand what you said just now..."
The man in the cloak turned his head, and what was reflected in his eyes full of surprise was a tragic scene like a picture of hell.
Under the silver-white moonlight, the living creatures just now had been cut into countless pieces and fell on the thick snow, and the ones that were not dead were still twitching.And the girl standing among the dead bodies is holding a long knife in her hand, raising her chin slightly, looking down at them with haughty eyes, her slender figure showing a sacred and inviolable aura.
She actually killed the shikigami he summoned... As the heir with the lowest spiritual power in Iwakura's history, how did she do it...
Squinting his eyes, the man's eyes fell on the knife in May's hand.The mirror-like blade is cold, and clusters of blue cold lights condense on the sharp edge, flowing as if alive, adding a bit of threatening coolness.
"Ancient artifact, don't god..."
The face half covered by the cloak showed strong shock, and his voice was full of disbelief, "Why is this knife in your hand, it's not lost..."
"This is a relic left to me by my elder brother, and he taught me how to use it himself."
Interrupting him in a calm tone, Wuyue's slender and pale fingers clenched the handle of the knife tightly, "Since I have the intention to overthrow the rock warehouse, of course I can't be so naive and stupid as to be unprepared for so many years. It's just... I really I didn't expect to make a move so early, you guys forced me."
A sudden gust of wind ruffled her long, soft black hair, red scarf, coat hem, and the bridal gown that had been ripped off for convenience.Those big eyes, full of sadness and hatred, stared straight at the enemy, as if they could kill the opponent without bloody arrogance.
"So that's the case, it wouldn't be surprising if it was that lord." He looked at Wuyue gloomyly for a moment, but the man smiled again, "However, Lord Wuyue, with the rare talent in the world of Lord Qianli, can naturally control others with ease." God, but a person like you who has no spiritual power will find it extremely difficult just to hold it? Be careful of being backlashed."
His words were not false at all. Although the sword named Bie Tianshen could kill monsters, it was also a dangerous demon sword.Just like the shikigami of the evil ghost way, once it is determined that the master's own spiritual power cannot suppress it, it will turn to devour the master's mind.
However, Chisato Iwakura once taught Wuyue that the way to temporarily suppress its demonic nature is to soak it with blood with spiritual power. Therefore, just before coming to Kodaiin, she had sacrificed the sword with her own blood up.
This is undoubtedly a dangerous move, and it must be resolved quickly, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.
"It's not your turn to intervene in this kind of thing. If you don't want to die today, just be sensible and disappear from my eyes immediately."
Due to the loss of a large amount of blood, Wuyue's bare skin was as translucent and blue as ice under the moonlight, and her lips and body trembled slightly due to the cold.Holding the long knife tightly in her right hand, her figure looks fragile, but at the same time looks resolute.
"Death? Master Wuyue, although it is too cruel to say so to you who have worked so hard that even I am a little moved, but if it is just another god, I am afraid you can't send me to die?"
She was not shocked at all, Wu Yue's voice, and the expression on Qingbai's face were full of firm will, showing that what she said was by no means a false threat.
"I have a secret technique that kills with one blow, I'll give you one last chance, get out of the way."
"……One hit kill……"
Probably shocked by the girl's solemn expression, after a few seconds of contemplation, the man cast a gloomy look at her, and said coolly: "Could it be that Yancang ban that was implemented in exchange for losing 20 years of lifespan?" Art? You also learned this from Lord Qianli? What a surprise, he who loves Lord Wuyue so much is willing to teach you this."
There was no fear, his tone was full of strong sarcasm and pity, "Huh, 20 years...for mere human beings, this price is too high, right? Little girl, have you brought your brain?"
"If it's sending a huge evil like you to hell, I can afford the price."
Responding calmly, Wuyue stared at her opponent with extremely indifferent cold eyes.Seeing that he had no intention of backing down, she gently pressed her hand without a knife to her lips, and after biting her finger decisively, the girl's clear voice rang out in the cold moonlight, like a sacred hymn that could cleanse the soul——
"Wood Spirit Imperial Coins, collect the ancient soldiers' essentials, and divide the five notes into gold..."
With the movement of her fingers drawing symbols in the air, brighter and brighter silver light poured out around Wu Yue's slender body... A critical moment is approaching.
However, at the end of the incantation chanting, the move that was said to be able to kill the demon with one blow was not released, and was replaced by a burst of harmless blue-gray mist.
This unexpected situation made Wuyue freeze in place, so she didn't immediately notice the extremely violent body vibration of the man in the cloak when the puff of smoke appeared.
what happened?Why is it different from what my brother taught me at the time... She quietly clenched her icy hands, and just as anxiety rose in Wu Yue's heart, a tall and elegant figure loomed in the misty mist.
"Should I sigh, 'You are worthy of being my master'? He expected early on that the incompetent and willful Lord May would make this move, so he concluded this troublesome summoning method with me in advance."
who is it?
The male voice, as warm as spring and white snow, poured into the eardrums with the wind, and it was impossible to tell whether he was an enemy or a friend with his obviously teasing words, so Wu Yue could only remain silent, staring intently at the direction the voice came from with a pair of black eyes.
"Long time no see, Mr. Wuyue is still useless, it makes people sad, even such dregs can't be solved."
Long time no see, in other words, is it someone you know?Moreover, he actually said that the most difficult shikigami under Grandpa's command is trash...
May frowned solemnly, and under the reflection of the moonlight, the figure of the mysterious comer appeared little by little——
I saw him wearing a pure white classical clothing with a great sense of history, and his whole body seemed to be wrapped in a faint cloud.A pair of weird animal horns were half hidden in the long chestnut hair, and as he moved forward, the soft hair fluttered slightly; on his fair to sickly face, a pair of slender crimson slender eyes slightly lifted upwards, thin and There was a charming and unrestrained smile on the bloodless lips; at first glance, the sharp-edged face was as handsome as a god, but such a beautiful appearance still couldn't hide the sinister aura constantly emanating from him.
It seems to be a high-level shikigami, but although Wuyue vaguely felt that the aura on his body seemed familiar, he couldn't search the memory bank for a figure that matched this young man who was about 20 years old.
He didn't mind Wu Yue's vigilant and puzzled eyes, and moved forward to block her behind him. The incomprehensible smile on the corner of the young man's mouth tended to gradually expand.
"It's normal that you don't remember me, after all, I'm in the second form now."
After finishing speaking disapprovingly, his red eyes locked on the dark figure who was standing still a few steps away, "The point now is, if Master Wuyue is really allowed to use that trick, the master will definitely be furious, and my life will be very difficult by then. Hard work. So I will deal with Teng Snake, well, do you want me to kill him...or kill him?"
"You...how did you appear here? Didn't you already disappear..."
Looking at the smiling young man in white, the man in the cloak who was named was no longer as calm and domineering as Wu Yue's impression was, and his hoarse voice trembled uncontrollably, filled with incomparably intense panic and shock.
So Iwakura-zun's shikigami is called Teng Snake... Seeing his appearance, Wu Yue's eyes sank, and Wu Yue became even more curious about the identity of the young man in front of him.Then, just as she was about to ask, a Taidao glowing with faint blue light appeared out of nowhere in the young man's hand.
The girl who recognized the knife at a glance froze for a moment, looked up at his back, and called out a name in disbelief: "... Yingji?"
The young man with an inscrutable expression tilted his head slightly, his red pupils narrowed slightly, "Hmm, you remembered."
how come? !This guy in front of him turned out to be Yingji?Regardless of how bad Eagle's attitude towards him was when he was a child, Wuyue clearly remembers that not long ago, he fought against Mr. Skylark at Pengo Li's headquarters... Later, if it wasn't for Leng Quantuo who risked his life to surrender it, I am afraid……
Gathering from her thoughts, Wu Yue asked seriously, "Why help me?"
"Help? I just want to save my life and do things loyal to my master. He ordered me to protect you."
Yingsi's tone was light, and he confronted his blood-colored pupils, from which Wu Yue saw a look of admiration for the first time.
"Besides, you don't have much ability, and you who know you can't do it and work hard, in my opinion, seem to be more pleasing to the eye than the submissive little girl who wore a mask and pretended to be good when I was a child."
Suddenly, a strange thought flashed through her mind, causing Wu Yue's heart to tighten suddenly.
"Who is your master...?"
"Excuse me, I have nothing to say, because this matter must be told to you by the master himself."
"..."
Averting his eyes from the girl's face, Yingji looked at the man who was standing still, his bright red tongue licked the corner of his lips, and his red eyes were not only cold and cruel, but also filled with devilish pleasure.
"Since the next scene is too bloody and violent, May I trouble you to play alone for a while? Of course, if you don't want to waste time, from the spiritual pressure I perceive, Master Zhishi is here now. In the northwest corner, with the old old head of the family."
His smiling lips and tone of voice were full of bloodthirsty demons ready to go. The moment the words landed, the long knife in his hand slashed towards the opponent's eyes with the force of the wind.
"I'll go find you after I abolish him, well, I'm so hungry..."
***
At the end of the cold and dark corridor is the secret place where Iwakura, the current head of the Iwakura clan, gives orders to his subordinates.Pushing open the door and walking in, Wu Yue looked up and saw the old man she should have called "Grandpa".
As if he knew that May would come, Iwakura-sun didn't show any surprise.Dim candle lights flickered back and forth, and in the empty room surrounded by cold stone walls, he sat on a high stone chair and stared down, as if boasting that he was currently at the top of the Iwakura family.Even with his advanced age, Iwakura Tun showed no signs of physical and mental decline.His left hand, which was damaged by an accident when he was young, is leaning on crutches, his eyes are as bright as torches, making him even more majestic, and even his wrinkled face reveals a strong willpower.
It is undeniable that May has a heartfelt fear of the supreme ruler of the Iwakura family.Even though Iwakura just sat there motionless, even though he hadn't said a word, the fear that he thought could be overcome still ran through Wuyue's body, and even paralyzed her hand holding the long knife.
However, in the next instant, the fear was completely burned by the sudden surge of anger.Because, on the seat behind where Iwakura-sun was, the beautiful woman sitting motionless was May's mother, Tomoyo Iwakura.
In stark contrast to the old man obliquely in front of her, her expression in the transparent darkness was as dazed as that of an antique doll in a closet. Her eyes, which should have been showing gentle eyes, did not blink, and she did not feel the slightest bit of anger and anger in her body. energy.
Looking at this mother who is like a walking dead, thinking of the treatment she has suffered, and then looking at the calm and indifferent cold face of Iwakura Zun, a kind of anger and despair that almost burst through the chest together with the boiling blood all over the body Come up to the top of your head.
"Just because you violated your wishes, do you have to kill them all!"
The violent dark water overflowed the atrium, and Wuyue's voice was filled with irreversible questioning and blatant disgust.Looking up at Iwakura-sun, his expression was full of rage, pain and resentment, his eyes were as fiery as fire, as if sparks were bursting.
"Mom didn't do anything wrong! She just wants to be with the person she likes! Why should you treat me like this!"
"Killed my father, locked up my sick elder brother for the sake of the family's face, and later indirectly killed him... Now this room—the entire land of Kodaiin is filthy...Iwakura What kind of famous family is it, it is simply a bloody, cursed family!"
"Why am I a 'Iwakura'? Bearing this surname, being of the Iwakura clan, and being your granddaughter, it makes me feel extremely sick! Do you know how painful I have been living since I was a child?! Why do people like you exist, such a stubborn, sinister, vicious and selfish old man, why don’t you give me a quick death!!!”
As if being hit, endless sorrow burned in Wuyue's chest.Staring at her condescendingly, without changing his face, Iwakura Takashi's old, inorganic and deep voice hit the cold stone wall.
"The fate you cannot escape is to be a member of the Iwakura family, so, no matter whether you have your fangs pulled out or not, you can only be Iwakura in this life."
Hearing the other party respond so ruthlessly and naturally, Wuyue's back shivered as if a basin of cold water had been poured on her. Just when her head was starting to heat up and tremble, she was about to scream and refute, the deafening crackling sound rang out behind her. , followed by a familiar voice, as if the light pierced through the darkness——
"Make it clear, her surname is Skylark now."
A tall and straight black figure walked out of the broken stones unhurriedly. Although the figure was lonely and arrogant, the black-haired young man in a simple suit exuded an aggressive aura of being able to defeat thousands of troops and live in the world.
"...Kyoya..."
Seeing Hibari Kyouya's icy face, Itsuki's eyes widened as if awakened from a start.The cold eyes that flashed the sharp light glanced at her who seemed to be unharmed, and the young man's tightened eyes seemed to be a little relieved, but his cool voice still sounded full of anger.
"Skylark Wuyue, came to such a ghostly place without my permission, are you owed to kill him?"
The author has something to say: Is this chapter not abusive?Don't say Ah Piao is too much_(:з」∠)_I am my real mother
Do you still remember the shore of Daming Lake... ahem, Chapter 23, the second son of Eagle Division?It's great to be your own person, isn't it~

PS: Thanks to lianseweirui little angel for mine!bow!
Chapter 97 Side.92
Wuyue didn't expect him to come, but after thinking about it, the Mr. Skylark she knew seemed to appear at just the right time every time, like a cold light, driving away all the darkness for herself.
The inexplicable solid sense of security made the dark tide that was still raging in her heart just now quietly fade away.Looking up at Kyouya Hibari who was standing next to her in an extremely domineering manner, asking her coldly why she left without his permission, Wu Yue suddenly wanted to smile at him.
However, the one in the high position seemed unwilling to give her the chance.
"Are you here, Hibari Kyouya?"
Iwakura-san's sharp, hawk-like gaze sank down from above, and he sat on the stone chair without getting up, suppressing some kind of dark emotion in his calm voice, "Since that's the case, our main drama will begin. "
His expression, demeanor, and tone of voice made May, who grew up in Iwakura, immediately smell a conspiracy.He calmed down vigilantly, and before she could remind Mr. Skylark beside him to be careful of his unique moves of onmyojis, Iwakura-sun suddenly lifted the crutch in his hand, and the moment it landed in response, a wave-like dark blue Reiatsu It spewed out from the top of his crutch, and instantly formed a translucent barrier three meters away from his stone seat.
Calmly examining the strange wall that separates him from the enemy, Hibari Kyoumi narrowed his eyes coldly.Sensing the undisguised murderous aura on him, Wu Yue, who was slightly worried that he would rush over immediately, reminded him solemnly:
"Kyoya, that's the Reiatsu Barrier, if you touch it, you'll feel like you've been shocked by electricity."
Enchantment……
Deep in the dark blue eyes flashed a hint of deep meaning. After two seconds of silence, his dark figure flickered forward, and the duckweed crutch wrapped in a layer of bright purple flame swung up at an extremely fast speed. The front wall.
At the moment when the spiritual pressure enchantment collided with the cloud attribute flames, the sound like thousands of birdsong rang through the ears.Glancing at the barrier that hadn't been damaged by his simple attack, Hibari Kyouya raised his eyebrows lightly and took a step back.
Sure enough.So, is he going to hide inside and not come out?
The exquisite phoenix eyes narrowed again, perhaps because of the uneasy attitude of biting and killing the target, Kyouya Hibari began to exude a dark aura.However, facing such a frighteningly low cold air pressure, the old man at the other end of the barrier still maintained a domineering attitude, staring down at Hibari Kyouya, with obvious contempt and disgust on his wrinkled face.
"Skylark...that's all... Iwakura Wuyue, are you really willing to give up everything for this person?"
Moving his eyes to May, who was beside Hibari Kyouya, looked down at her deeply, Iwakura Takashi's low voice slowly overflowed from the valley of his throat, "Including, your mother's life..."
Too bad, my lord mother is still on the other side of the barrier... No wonder, no wonder he has to expend spiritual energy to build such a strong barrier...
Wuyue, who suddenly sensed Iwakura's intentions, gasped and looked nervously at Tomoyo Iwakura who was sitting behind him like a puppet and could be slaughtered by others. She only felt that the blood in her body was about to freeze.
Glancing at Wuyue indifferently, a dagger appeared out of thin air following Iwakura-sun's command, and the sharp blade lay across Iwakura Tomoyo's snow-white neck, as if it would cut her throat at any moment.
"...No, don't, don't attack mother..."
Being stabbed hard, Wuyue's strength was weakened by half, if Mr. Skylark was not around, she might even blurt out the words of pleading.However, Iwakura Zun has long lost his eyes and blinded his mind by power and power, even if Wu Yue showed such a heartbroken expression, he was calm and indifferent.
"Whether you will do it or not is entirely up to you. If you want to save her, you must fulfill your duties as Iwakura."
Sitting majesticly on the stone chair, his expression did not change at all, and he paused every word: "Kill Hibari Kyouya for me, and use the other gods in your hand."
That cold and ruthless order was like an invisible hand pinching May's neck, making it difficult for her to breathe, and she even lost the strength to hold the knife.Looking at the mother whose throat might be cut at any moment, and Mr. Skylark who was frowning slightly with a dignified expression, Wuyue's chest hurt like a needle prick.
Hibari Kyouya didn't know at first that May had rushed back to the Iwakura house because of his mother, so when he noticed the doll-like woman behind Iwakura, it seemed too late.Although he didn't seem too shaken on the surface, Wuyue's sad and bewildered expression and the tears gradually filling his eyes made his heart tighten.
It's not that Hibari Kyouya can't open the barrier, it's just that it will take some time, and the most important thing to buy in this situation is time.
Qing Jun's face sank, and he raised his arms on the duckweed crutches, Hibari Kyouya put on a fighting posture.
"Skylark May."
There was no extra nonsense, he just called her name in a cool and steady voice.Looking up at the pair of phoenix eyes flashing with cold blue light, the tacit understanding in the bottom of my heart out of absolute "trust" made Wu Yue instantly comprehend his devious tactics. However, when Wu Yue just raised his hand the knife...
"You only have one chance. If you don't seriously injure Hibari Kyouya, the dagger will cut it off without hesitation."
Seeing through what the two young people were thinking at a glance, Iwakura Tun's calm tone was mixed with a touch of sarcasm.Hearing his words, Wuyue's heart sank heavily again, and Hibari Kyoumi's calm gaze on her face made Wuyue's heart writhe in shock when he realized that he had no intention of avoiding it at all. pain.
The atmosphere was suffocating.
Suddenly, an unexpected scene happened at the other end of the enchantment——
There was the muffled sound of a sharp instrument piercing into a gun.The crimson blood gushing out.Iwakura Tomoyo, who should have no will of his own, was motionless like a puppet, raised his hand to hold the dagger lying across his neck, and then stabbed it into his chest.
Everything happened in a flash.
Mother... will die...
The pupils constricted suddenly, and the other god in his hand fell to the cold and hard stone slab with a bang. After about half a second of trance, Wu Yue screamed as if swallowed by the fear of the whole world collapsing.
At the same time that weak figure fell to the back of the chair as if in slow motion, May also felt something important in her heart crumble to pieces.
The pain that almost made people faint made her throat tremble, and tears immediately filled her eyes, and transparent water droplets rolled down her cheeks one after another.If it wasn't for Hibari Kyoumi's quick eyesight and hands to grab her, Wuyue would have rushed towards the barrier without hesitation.
"Why? Mother...why..."
The legs that had lost strength suddenly softened, and May, who seemed unable to bear such a severe blow, fell down like a withered flower stem.Her tear-filled face was filled with desperate sorrow, but in the blink of an eye, the deep sorrow in her eyes turned into a fiery hatred.
"You should be satisfied now? You killed your own daughter, Iwakura-san, should you be satisfied! Is this the result you want?!"
Clenching the duckweed crutch in his hand, the girl's wailing cry suddenly hit Hibari Kyouya's chest.
At this time, the old man sitting tall at the other end of the barrier finally stood up, glanced at Tomoyo Iwakura behind him and the dagger stuck in her chest with disdainful eyes like looking at discarded tools, and slowly closed his eyes Eyes closed, chapped lips uttered an inexplicable soliloquy.
"You bastard... you actually broke through the soul seal..."
The withered vine-like hand clenched the cane tightly, and there was a strange silence. He looked at Wuyue and whispered in a rare anxious voice: "It was because she wanted to die after that man died that I sealed her. to save her life... Now it's good, you reminded her of the past, let her acquire those wrong consciousnesses, and broke through the seal..."
My lord mother... wants to die...
She had always hoped that her mother could have her own feelings and consciousness like a normal person, but she never expected that her mother had been living in such great despair, and her greatest will was to die.
Showing an expression of being subjected to an unprecedented violent shock, Wuyue's tear-filled eyes could not be opened any wider, and her bluish face stared blankly at the old man on the other side of the barrier.
Looking down at her coldly, Iwakura-sun continued to say expressionlessly: "After all, her surname is Iwakura, and even if she is useless, she was born to me... I don't want to see her end up like this. But, it's you and you. The man you chose killed her, Iwakura Wuyue, don't you feel guilty? You and your willful behavior are the main culprits who forced your mother to death!"
No...it has nothing to do with Mr. Skylark, and it's not her fault, if grandpa didn't force her to fight the one she loves in front of her mother...
Her lips trembled slightly, and Wu Yue clearly had an answer in her heart, but under the gaze of those torch-like eyes, she was like a lost child who couldn't answer her own name, unable to utter words to refute.
There was a deathly silence, and at this moment, a small voice came softly.
"Not……"
It was an extremely gentle and tolerant voice that had appeared in May's dreams countless times.
"...No... Wuyue didn't do anything wrong. Mom... I did this to protect the most important thing..."
Raising his tear-filled face in surprise, Itsuki held his breath and looked at Tomoyo Iwakura, whose expression was still as empty as a puppet's, but whose eyes were shining with faint brilliance.
"Being separated from Guangxi... At first, it made me too sad to bear... But... to meet him in my lifetime... I have gained so much happiness that this life is worthwhile..."
"I promised Guangxi... I will always smile... Yesterday with him is like this... Today without him... I can also smile thinking of him..."
There was a soft smile on her bluish lips, an expression that would only be shown when she was truly happy from the bottom of her heart.
"So... I have never regretted it... I have never despaired... Guangxi and I have never... lost to anyone. The most important thing is... I also got a priceless treasure from Guangxi... That's you in May..."
Iwakura Tomoyo's empty eyes gradually regained focus, and his gentle tone seemed to caress May's hand above her head.
"Actually, what Wuyue said to my mother...I can hear it all...but I can't respond...I can't protect you from growing up...Mom always feels that she is remiss...I'm sorry...for leaving you alone... ..."
Her shoulders trembled slightly, Wu Yue couldn't help sobbing when she heard her mother's words, and tears fell down again.Staring at her who lowered her head and whimpered like a puppy through the barrier, Tomoyo Iwakura's encouraging voice was full of warmth.
"But... I saw you and... Is it called Kyoya?" As if lost in memory, he paused for a moment, and a happy smile appeared on Iwakura Tomoyo's lips again, "Actually, when I led him the way at that time, I felt He's a nice kid."
Wiping her tears with her hand, Wuyue suddenly raised her head and glanced at Kyouya Hibari who was beside her with a thoughtful expression. A look of surprise appeared on her tear-stained face, "Mother... I have seen Kyouya before." Mi?"
Without answering, Iwakura Tomoyo's pale but beautiful face showed a smile that was exactly the same as May, as bright and dazzling as the sun.Just when Wu Yue was dazed, her thin body emitted a soft light, and then, countless small and lovely light spots floated up into the air from her weak body.
"There's not enough time... In short, seeing you together... Mom feels very relieved... So I don't want to destroy this beauty..."
The dots of light slowly rising into the sky are like stars and fireflies.As Tomoyo Iwakura's body became more and more transparent, the originally dark and gloomy stone room was gradually illuminated by the shining "stars" that had covered the ceiling at some point, like a pure and clear starry sky, but more beautiful than the real starry sky. Surrounding Itsuki and Hibari Kyouya beside her more brilliantly and more tenderly.
"...the daughter of the Iwakura family...a bright and dazzling existence that can illuminate all darkness at any time...from now on, mother will protect you in this way...so Wu Yue, and Kyouya , you must work hard to be happy..."
"Also, May... Do you remember your dream? When you were young, you told your mother... what kind of person do you want to be?"
As the soft prayer-like voice fell to the ground, Tomoyo Iwakura had completely disappeared, only the stars shining quietly above his head.
In the starry sky in the room, a small ray of light dragged its tail and fell into Wuyue's arms. Knowing that it represented the mother who had disappeared from this world, Wuyue desperately resisted the choking sobs, the pain of her slender body was unbearable. Trembling suppressed.
The same radiance also fell on Hibari Kyouya's chest and shoulders.That clear light is the gentlest and greatest end-of-life gift from Tomoyo Iwakura who sacrificed his life for his beloved daughter.
——You must work hard to be happy.
——Do you still remember your dream, May, what kind of person do you want to be?
The transparent sadness spreads silently like ripples in the water, however, the lost darkness no longer exists.
Although transparent tears rolled down her cheeks, May, who was kneeling on the ground, stood up with her mouth pursed.Gently holding Hibari Kyouya's hand with her pale hand, she raised her head and looked straight at Iwakura Takara who remained silent the whole time.
Feeling the power transmitted from the hand that was holding her, Wuyue opened her mouth awe-inspiringly and told her dream all along.
"I hope that I can have a strong and unfettered soul like Kyouya. I want to be a free person who cannot be bound by anything."
——So, no matter who is restricting this dream, even the most
The annex of the Iwakura family is located on the high hill in the north of Kodai-in, close to the skyline. Compared with the main house facing south, the annex that is very close to the hillside gives people a darker and more gloomy feeling.Although the interior still maintains a pure Japanese style, the exterior is black and red. It is said that this is because the building material is cut lava, while the sharp-pointed iron fences like spears and the window frames painted black Shows a kind of creepy strange feeling.
It was in this annex that the youkai lived, and her mother was imprisoned.
On both sides of the path paved with cobblestones, there is snow that is half the height of the calf, and the cold winter wind pierces the bone marrow. The paper lanterns hanging on the doorposts and writing "Yancang" with a brush flicker with erratic light , and the palpitatingly bright moonlight reflected the girl's pale face.After inspecting the door with tacks embedded in it with solemn eyes for a moment, after confirming that there was no enchantment on it, Wuyue pushed the door open and entered.
However, there are already enemies waiting for her there.The cloaked man whom I met a few hours ago, one of Iwakura Takashi's twelve shikigami.
"Master Wuyue, did you choose this time to visit on purpose? For Mr. Tomoyo? But have you ever thought about it? If you see you who are so ignorant of etiquette, as a mother who has not fulfilled the responsibility of discipline, Mr. Tomoyo will probably Feel extremely ashamed.”
The man's tone was contemptuous and lazy, and anyone could hear the disdain and sarcasm in it.After finishing his speech, he, who was originally floating above the pond in the atrium, stood with his hands behind his back on the bluestone road in front of Wuyue in the blink of an eye. A gust of wind blew past, making his dark cloak rattle.
"I remember I warned you a long time ago, don't use that mouth of yours to mention your mother's name again." Wu Yue's face, which was as delicate as an ice sculpture, didn't have much expression, her eyes flew straight past the man and landed on the Japanese-style building behind , she said coldly: "Also, beast, you are blocking my way, get out of the way immediately."
Time seemed to freeze for a moment, and in the next second, low laughter came from all directions in the large and empty silent courtyard, which was like the hissing sound of a snake spitting out a letter.
"Such an arrogant tone, should it be said to be a family tradition?" Shrugging his shoulders disapprovingly, the man really took a few steps back.While making way for Wuyue, he said in a weird way: "It's just that I hope you don't just inherit this aspect."
The straight eyebrows were slightly frowned, just when Wu Yue was wondering how easy he would be to talk so much, dozens of things exuding a strange aura floated up from the darkness, formed a circle by coincidence, and slowly approached her.
"Master Wuyue, it depends on your ability to save Master Zhishi or not."
Glancing at the black-haired girl surrounded by many low-level shikigami, he turned and walked forward, with a malicious smile on the corner of his mouth exposed outside the cloak, "It's different from the training of playing house when I was young. If you are not careful, you may really die if you have no qualifications—”
What forcibly covered up his leisurely words was the mournful howl that resounded through the entire mansion at almost the same moment, followed by the girl's calm voice that made people feel cold all over her body .
"Bastard, I don't seem to understand what you said just now..."
The man in the cloak turned his head, and what was reflected in his eyes full of surprise was a tragic scene like a picture of hell.
Under the silver-white moonlight, the living creatures just now had been cut into countless pieces and fell on the thick snow, and the ones that were not dead were still twitching.And the girl standing among the dead bodies is holding a long knife in her hand, raising her chin slightly, looking down at them with haughty eyes, her slender figure showing a sacred and inviolable aura.
She actually killed the shikigami he summoned... As the heir with the lowest spiritual power in Iwakura's history, how did she do it...
Squinting his eyes, the man's eyes fell on the knife in May's hand.The mirror-like blade is cold, and clusters of blue cold lights condense on the sharp edge, flowing as if alive, adding a bit of threatening coolness.
"Ancient artifact, don't god..."
The face half covered by the cloak showed strong shock, and his voice was full of disbelief, "Why is this knife in your hand, it's not lost..."
"This is a relic left to me by my elder brother, and he taught me how to use it himself."
Interrupting him in a calm tone, Wuyue's slender and pale fingers clenched the handle of the knife tightly, "Since I have the intention to overthrow the rock warehouse, of course I can't be so naive and stupid as to be unprepared for so many years. It's just... I really I didn't expect to make a move so early, you guys forced me."
A sudden gust of wind ruffled her long, soft black hair, red scarf, coat hem, and the bridal gown that had been ripped off for convenience.Those big eyes, full of sadness and hatred, stared straight at the enemy, as if they could kill the opponent without bloody arrogance.
"So that's the case, it wouldn't be surprising if it was that lord." He looked at Wuyue gloomyly for a moment, but the man smiled again, "However, Lord Wuyue, with the rare talent in the world of Lord Qianli, can naturally control others with ease." God, but a person like you who has no spiritual power will find it extremely difficult just to hold it? Be careful of being backlashed."
His words were not false at all. Although the sword named Bie Tianshen could kill monsters, it was also a dangerous demon sword.Just like the shikigami of the evil ghost way, once it is determined that the master's own spiritual power cannot suppress it, it will turn to devour the master's mind.
However, Chisato Iwakura once taught Wuyue that the way to temporarily suppress its demonic nature is to soak it with blood with spiritual power. Therefore, just before coming to Kodaiin, she had sacrificed the sword with her own blood up.
This is undoubtedly a dangerous move, and it must be resolved quickly, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.
"It's not your turn to intervene in this kind of thing. If you don't want to die today, just be sensible and disappear from my eyes immediately."
Due to the loss of a large amount of blood, Wuyue's bare skin was as translucent and blue as ice under the moonlight, and her lips and body trembled slightly due to the cold.Holding the long knife tightly in her right hand, her figure looks fragile, but at the same time looks resolute.
"Death? Master Wuyue, although it is too cruel to say so to you who have worked so hard that even I am a little moved, but if it is just another god, I am afraid you can't send me to die?"
She was not shocked at all, Wu Yue's voice, and the expression on Qingbai's face were full of firm will, showing that what she said was by no means a false threat.
"I have a secret technique that kills with one blow, I'll give you one last chance, get out of the way."
"……One hit kill……"
Probably shocked by the girl's solemn expression, after a few seconds of contemplation, the man cast a gloomy look at her, and said coolly: "Could it be that Yancang ban that was implemented in exchange for losing 20 years of lifespan?" Art? You also learned this from Lord Qianli? What a surprise, he who loves Lord Wuyue so much is willing to teach you this."
There was no fear, his tone was full of strong sarcasm and pity, "Huh, 20 years...for mere human beings, this price is too high, right? Little girl, have you brought your brain?"
"If it's sending a huge evil like you to hell, I can afford the price."
Responding calmly, Wuyue stared at her opponent with extremely indifferent cold eyes.Seeing that he had no intention of backing down, she gently pressed her hand without a knife to her lips, and after biting her finger decisively, the girl's clear voice rang out in the cold moonlight, like a sacred hymn that could cleanse the soul——
"Wood Spirit Imperial Coins, collect the ancient soldiers' essentials, and divide the five notes into gold..."
With the movement of her fingers drawing symbols in the air, brighter and brighter silver light poured out around Wu Yue's slender body... A critical moment is approaching.
However, at the end of the incantation chanting, the move that was said to be able to kill the demon with one blow was not released, and was replaced by a burst of harmless blue-gray mist.
This unexpected situation made Wuyue freeze in place, so she didn't immediately notice the extremely violent body vibration of the man in the cloak when the puff of smoke appeared.
what happened?Why is it different from what my brother taught me at the time... She quietly clenched her icy hands, and just as anxiety rose in Wu Yue's heart, a tall and elegant figure loomed in the misty mist.
"Should I sigh, 'You are worthy of being my master'? He expected early on that the incompetent and willful Lord May would make this move, so he concluded this troublesome summoning method with me in advance."
who is it?
The male voice, as warm as spring and white snow, poured into the eardrums with the wind, and it was impossible to tell whether he was an enemy or a friend with his obviously teasing words, so Wu Yue could only remain silent, staring intently at the direction the voice came from with a pair of black eyes.
"Long time no see, Mr. Wuyue is still useless, it makes people sad, even such dregs can't be solved."
Long time no see, in other words, is it someone you know?Moreover, he actually said that the most difficult shikigami under Grandpa's command is trash...
May frowned solemnly, and under the reflection of the moonlight, the figure of the mysterious comer appeared little by little——
I saw him wearing a pure white classical clothing with a great sense of history, and his whole body seemed to be wrapped in a faint cloud.A pair of weird animal horns were half hidden in the long chestnut hair, and as he moved forward, the soft hair fluttered slightly; on his fair to sickly face, a pair of slender crimson slender eyes slightly lifted upwards, thin and There was a charming and unrestrained smile on the bloodless lips; at first glance, the sharp-edged face was as handsome as a god, but such a beautiful appearance still couldn't hide the sinister aura constantly emanating from him.
It seems to be a high-level shikigami, but although Wuyue vaguely felt that the aura on his body seemed familiar, he couldn't search the memory bank for a figure that matched this young man who was about 20 years old.
He didn't mind Wu Yue's vigilant and puzzled eyes, and moved forward to block her behind him. The incomprehensible smile on the corner of the young man's mouth tended to gradually expand.
"It's normal that you don't remember me, after all, I'm in the second form now."
After finishing speaking disapprovingly, his red eyes locked on the dark figure who was standing still a few steps away, "The point now is, if Master Wuyue is really allowed to use that trick, the master will definitely be furious, and my life will be very difficult by then. Hard work. So I will deal with Teng Snake, well, do you want me to kill him...or kill him?"
"You...how did you appear here? Didn't you already disappear..."
Looking at the smiling young man in white, the man in the cloak who was named was no longer as calm and domineering as Wu Yue's impression was, and his hoarse voice trembled uncontrollably, filled with incomparably intense panic and shock.
So Iwakura-zun's shikigami is called Teng Snake... Seeing his appearance, Wu Yue's eyes sank, and Wu Yue became even more curious about the identity of the young man in front of him.Then, just as she was about to ask, a Taidao glowing with faint blue light appeared out of nowhere in the young man's hand.
The girl who recognized the knife at a glance froze for a moment, looked up at his back, and called out a name in disbelief: "... Yingji?"
The young man with an inscrutable expression tilted his head slightly, his red pupils narrowed slightly, "Hmm, you remembered."
how come? !This guy in front of him turned out to be Yingji?Regardless of how bad Eagle's attitude towards him was when he was a child, Wuyue clearly remembers that not long ago, he fought against Mr. Skylark at Pengo Li's headquarters... Later, if it wasn't for Leng Quantuo who risked his life to surrender it, I am afraid……
Gathering from her thoughts, Wu Yue asked seriously, "Why help me?"
"Help? I just want to save my life and do things loyal to my master. He ordered me to protect you."
Yingsi's tone was light, and he confronted his blood-colored pupils, from which Wu Yue saw a look of admiration for the first time.
"Besides, you don't have much ability, and you who know you can't do it and work hard, in my opinion, seem to be more pleasing to the eye than the submissive little girl who wore a mask and pretended to be good when I was a child."
Suddenly, a strange thought flashed through her mind, causing Wu Yue's heart to tighten suddenly.
"Who is your master...?"
"Excuse me, I have nothing to say, because this matter must be told to you by the master himself."
"..."
Averting his eyes from the girl's face, Yingji looked at the man who was standing still, his bright red tongue licked the corner of his lips, and his red eyes were not only cold and cruel, but also filled with devilish pleasure.
"Since the next scene is too bloody and violent, May I trouble you to play alone for a while? Of course, if you don't want to waste time, from the spiritual pressure I perceive, Master Zhishi is here now. In the northwest corner, with the old old head of the family."
His smiling lips and tone of voice were full of bloodthirsty demons ready to go. The moment the words landed, the long knife in his hand slashed towards the opponent's eyes with the force of the wind.
"I'll go find you after I abolish him, well, I'm so hungry..."
***
At the end of the cold and dark corridor is the secret place where Iwakura, the current head of the Iwakura clan, gives orders to his subordinates.Pushing open the door and walking in, Wu Yue looked up and saw the old man she should have called "Grandpa".
As if he knew that May would come, Iwakura-sun didn't show any surprise.Dim candle lights flickered back and forth, and in the empty room surrounded by cold stone walls, he sat on a high stone chair and stared down, as if boasting that he was currently at the top of the Iwakura family.Even with his advanced age, Iwakura Tun showed no signs of physical and mental decline.His left hand, which was damaged by an accident when he was young, is leaning on crutches, his eyes are as bright as torches, making him even more majestic, and even his wrinkled face reveals a strong willpower.
It is undeniable that May has a heartfelt fear of the supreme ruler of the Iwakura family.Even though Iwakura just sat there motionless, even though he hadn't said a word, the fear that he thought could be overcome still ran through Wuyue's body, and even paralyzed her hand holding the long knife.
However, in the next instant, the fear was completely burned by the sudden surge of anger.Because, on the seat behind where Iwakura-sun was, the beautiful woman sitting motionless was May's mother, Tomoyo Iwakura.
In stark contrast to the old man obliquely in front of her, her expression in the transparent darkness was as dazed as that of an antique doll in a closet. Her eyes, which should have been showing gentle eyes, did not blink, and she did not feel the slightest bit of anger and anger in her body. energy.
Looking at this mother who is like a walking dead, thinking of the treatment she has suffered, and then looking at the calm and indifferent cold face of Iwakura Zun, a kind of anger and despair that almost burst through the chest together with the boiling blood all over the body Come up to the top of your head.
"Just because you violated your wishes, do you have to kill them all!"
The violent dark water overflowed the atrium, and Wuyue's voice was filled with irreversible questioning and blatant disgust.Looking up at Iwakura-sun, his expression was full of rage, pain and resentment, his eyes were as fiery as fire, as if sparks were bursting.
"Mom didn't do anything wrong! She just wants to be with the person she likes! Why should you treat me like this!"
"Killed my father, locked up my sick elder brother for the sake of the family's face, and later indirectly killed him... Now this room—the entire land of Kodaiin is filthy...Iwakura What kind of famous family is it, it is simply a bloody, cursed family!"
"Why am I a 'Iwakura'? Bearing this surname, being of the Iwakura clan, and being your granddaughter, it makes me feel extremely sick! Do you know how painful I have been living since I was a child?! Why do people like you exist, such a stubborn, sinister, vicious and selfish old man, why don’t you give me a quick death!!!”
As if being hit, endless sorrow burned in Wuyue's chest.Staring at her condescendingly, without changing his face, Iwakura Takashi's old, inorganic and deep voice hit the cold stone wall.
"The fate you cannot escape is to be a member of the Iwakura family, so, no matter whether you have your fangs pulled out or not, you can only be Iwakura in this life."
Hearing the other party respond so ruthlessly and naturally, Wuyue's back shivered as if a basin of cold water had been poured on her. Just when her head was starting to heat up and tremble, she was about to scream and refute, the deafening crackling sound rang out behind her. , followed by a familiar voice, as if the light pierced through the darkness——
"Make it clear, her surname is Skylark now."
A tall and straight black figure walked out of the broken stones unhurriedly. Although the figure was lonely and arrogant, the black-haired young man in a simple suit exuded an aggressive aura of being able to defeat thousands of troops and live in the world.
"...Kyoya..."
Seeing Hibari Kyouya's icy face, Itsuki's eyes widened as if awakened from a start.The cold eyes that flashed the sharp light glanced at her who seemed to be unharmed, and the young man's tightened eyes seemed to be a little relieved, but his cool voice still sounded full of anger.
"Skylark Wuyue, came to such a ghostly place without my permission, are you owed to kill him?"
The author has something to say: Is this chapter not abusive?Don't say Ah Piao is too much_(:з」∠)_I am my real mother
Do you still remember the shore of Daming Lake... ahem, Chapter 23, the second son of Eagle Division?It's great to be your own person, isn't it~
If the decisive battle in the next chapter is not delayed, my lord, the director said that the chicken legs are ready, so you can take them away~
PS: Thanks to lianseweirui little angel for mine!bow!
Chapter 97 Side.92
Wuyue didn't expect him to come, but after thinking about it, the Mr. Skylark she knew seemed to appear at just the right time every time, like a cold light, driving away all the darkness for herself.
The inexplicable solid sense of security made the dark tide that was still raging in her heart just now quietly fade away.Looking up at Kyouya Hibari who was standing next to her in an extremely domineering manner, asking her coldly why she left without his permission, Wu Yue suddenly wanted to smile at him.
However, the one in the high position seemed unwilling to give her the chance.
"Are you here, Hibari Kyouya?"
Iwakura-san's sharp, hawk-like gaze sank down from above, and he sat on the stone chair without getting up, suppressing some kind of dark emotion in his calm voice, "Since that's the case, our main drama will begin. "
His expression, demeanor, and tone of voice made May, who grew up in Iwakura, immediately smell a conspiracy.He calmed down vigilantly, and before she could remind Mr. Skylark beside him to be careful of his unique moves of onmyojis, Iwakura-sun suddenly lifted the crutch in his hand, and the moment it landed in response, a wave-like dark blue Reiatsu It spewed out from the top of his crutch, and instantly formed a translucent barrier three meters away from his stone seat.
Calmly examining the strange wall that separates him from the enemy, Hibari Kyoumi narrowed his eyes coldly.Sensing the undisguised murderous aura on him, Wu Yue, who was slightly worried that he would rush over immediately, reminded him solemnly:
"Kyoya, that's the Reiatsu Barrier, if you touch it, you'll feel like you've been shocked by electricity."
Enchantment……
Deep in the dark blue eyes flashed a hint of deep meaning. After two seconds of silence, his dark figure flickered forward, and the duckweed crutch wrapped in a layer of bright purple flame swung up at an extremely fast speed. The front wall.
At the moment when the spiritual pressure enchantment collided with the cloud attribute flames, the sound like thousands of birdsong rang through the ears.Glancing at the barrier that hadn't been damaged by his simple attack, Hibari Kyouya raised his eyebrows lightly and took a step back.
Sure enough.So, is he going to hide inside and not come out?
The exquisite phoenix eyes narrowed again, perhaps because of the uneasy attitude of biting and killing the target, Kyouya Hibari began to exude a dark aura.However, facing such a frighteningly low cold air pressure, the old man at the other end of the barrier still maintained a domineering attitude, staring down at Hibari Kyouya, with obvious contempt and disgust on his wrinkled face.
"Skylark...that's all... Iwakura Wuyue, are you really willing to give up everything for this person?"
Moving his eyes to May, who was beside Hibari Kyouya, looked down at her deeply, Iwakura Takashi's low voice slowly overflowed from the valley of his throat, "Including, your mother's life..."
Too bad, my lord mother is still on the other side of the barrier... No wonder, no wonder he has to expend spiritual energy to build such a strong barrier...
Wuyue, who suddenly sensed Iwakura's intentions, gasped and looked nervously at Tomoyo Iwakura who was sitting behind him like a puppet and could be slaughtered by others. She only felt that the blood in her body was about to freeze.
Glancing at Wuyue indifferently, a dagger appeared out of thin air following Iwakura-sun's command, and the sharp blade lay across Iwakura Tomoyo's snow-white neck, as if it would cut her throat at any moment.
"...No, don't, don't attack mother..."
Being stabbed hard, Wuyue's strength was weakened by half, if Mr. Skylark was not around, she might even blurt out the words of pleading.However, Iwakura Zun has long lost his eyes and blinded his mind by power and power, even if Wu Yue showed such a heartbroken expression, he was calm and indifferent.
"Whether you will do it or not is entirely up to you. If you want to save her, you must fulfill your duties as Iwakura."
Sitting majesticly on the stone chair, his expression did not change at all, and he paused every word: "Kill Hibari Kyouya for me, and use the other gods in your hand."
That cold and ruthless order was like an invisible hand pinching May's neck, making it difficult for her to breathe, and she even lost the strength to hold the knife.Looking at the mother whose throat might be cut at any moment, and Mr. Skylark who was frowning slightly with a dignified expression, Wuyue's chest hurt like a needle prick.
Hibari Kyouya didn't know at first that May had rushed back to the Iwakura house because of his mother, so when he noticed the doll-like woman behind Iwakura, it seemed too late.Although he didn't seem too shaken on the surface, Wuyue's sad and bewildered expression and the tears gradually filling his eyes made his heart tighten.
It's not that Hibari Kyouya can't open the barrier, it's just that it will take some time, and the most important thing to buy in this situation is time.
Qing Jun's face sank, and he raised his arms on the duckweed crutches, Hibari Kyouya put on a fighting posture.
"Skylark May."
There was no extra nonsense, he just called her name in a cool and steady voice.Looking up at the pair of phoenix eyes flashing with cold blue light, the tacit understanding in the bottom of my heart out of absolute "trust" made Wu Yue instantly comprehend his devious tactics. However, when Wu Yue just raised his hand the knife...
"You only have one chance. If you don't seriously injure Hibari Kyouya, the dagger will cut it off without hesitation."
Seeing through what the two young people were thinking at a glance, Iwakura Tun's calm tone was mixed with a touch of sarcasm.Hearing his words, Wuyue's heart sank heavily again, and Hibari Kyoumi's calm gaze on her face made Wuyue's heart writhe in shock when he realized that he had no intention of avoiding it at all. pain.
The atmosphere was suffocating.
Suddenly, an unexpected scene happened at the other end of the enchantment——
There was the muffled sound of a sharp instrument piercing into a gun.The crimson blood gushing out.Iwakura Tomoyo, who should have no will of his own, was motionless like a puppet, raised his hand to hold the dagger lying across his neck, and then stabbed it into his chest.
Everything happened in a flash.
Mother... will die...
The pupils constricted suddenly, and the other god in his hand fell to the cold and hard stone slab with a bang. After about half a second of trance, Wu Yue screamed as if swallowed by the fear of the whole world collapsing.
At the same time that weak figure fell to the back of the chair as if in slow motion, May also felt something important in her heart crumble to pieces.
The pain that almost made people faint made her throat tremble, and tears immediately filled her eyes, and transparent water droplets rolled down her cheeks one after another.If it wasn't for Hibari Kyoumi's quick eyesight and hands to grab her, Wuyue would have rushed towards the barrier without hesitation.
"Why? Mother...why..."
The legs that had lost strength suddenly softened, and May, who seemed unable to bear such a severe blow, fell down like a withered flower stem.Her tear-filled face was filled with desperate sorrow, but in the blink of an eye, the deep sorrow in her eyes turned into a fiery hatred.
"You should be satisfied now? You killed your own daughter, Iwakura-san, should you be satisfied! Is this the result you want?!"
Clenching the duckweed crutch in his hand, the girl's wailing cry suddenly hit Hibari Kyouya's chest.
At this time, the old man sitting tall at the other end of the barrier finally stood up, glanced at Tomoyo Iwakura behind him and the dagger stuck in her chest with disdainful eyes like looking at discarded tools, and slowly closed his eyes Eyes closed, chapped lips uttered an inexplicable soliloquy.
"You bastard... you actually broke through the soul seal..."
The withered vine-like hand clenched the cane tightly, and there was a strange silence. He looked at Wuyue and whispered in a rare anxious voice: "It was because she wanted to die after that man died that I sealed her. to save her life... Now it's good, you reminded her of the past, let her acquire those wrong consciousnesses, and broke through the seal..."
My lord mother... wants to die...
She had always hoped that her mother could have her own feelings and consciousness like a normal person, but she never expected that her mother had been living in such great despair, and her greatest will was to die.
Showing an expression of being subjected to an unprecedented violent shock, Wuyue's tear-filled eyes could not be opened any wider, and her bluish face stared blankly at the old man on the other side of the barrier.
Looking down at her coldly, Iwakura-sun continued to say expressionlessly: "After all, her surname is Iwakura, and even if she is useless, she was born to me... I don't want to see her end up like this. But, it's you and you. The man you chose killed her, Iwakura Wuyue, don't you feel guilty? You and your willful behavior are the main culprits who forced your mother to death!"
No...it has nothing to do with Mr. Skylark, and it's not her fault, if grandpa didn't force her to fight the one she loves in front of her mother...
Her lips trembled slightly, and Wu Yue clearly had an answer in her heart, but under the gaze of those torch-like eyes, she was like a lost child who couldn't answer her own name, unable to utter words to refute.
There was a deathly silence, and at this moment, a small voice came softly.
"Not……"
It was an extremely gentle and tolerant voice that had appeared in May's dreams countless times.
"...No... Wuyue didn't do anything wrong. Mom... I did this to protect the most important thing..."
Raising his tear-filled face in surprise, Itsuki held his breath and looked at Tomoyo Iwakura, whose expression was still as empty as a puppet's, but whose eyes were shining with faint brilliance.
"Being separated from Guangxi... At first, it made me too sad to bear... But... to meet him in my lifetime... I have gained so much happiness that this life is worthwhile..."
"I promised Guangxi... I will always smile... Yesterday with him is like this... Today without him... I can also smile thinking of him..."
There was a soft smile on her bluish lips, an expression that would only be shown when she was truly happy from the bottom of her heart.
"So... I have never regretted it... I have never despaired... Guangxi and I have never... lost to anyone. The most important thing is... I also got a priceless treasure from Guangxi... That's you in May..."
Iwakura Tomoyo's empty eyes gradually regained focus, and his gentle tone seemed to caress May's hand above her head.
"Actually, what Wuyue said to my mother...I can hear it all...but I can't respond...I can't protect you from growing up...Mom always feels that she is remiss...I'm sorry...for leaving you alone... ..."
Her shoulders trembled slightly, Wu Yue couldn't help sobbing when she heard her mother's words, and tears fell down again.Staring at her who lowered her head and whimpered like a puppy through the barrier, Tomoyo Iwakura's encouraging voice was full of warmth.
"But... I saw you and... Is it called Kyoya?" As if lost in memory, he paused for a moment, and a happy smile appeared on Iwakura Tomoyo's lips again, "Actually, when I led him the way at that time, I felt He's a nice kid."
Wiping her tears with her hand, Wuyue suddenly raised her head and glanced at Kyouya Hibari who was beside her with a thoughtful expression. A look of surprise appeared on her tear-stained face, "Mother... I have seen Kyouya before." Mi?"
Without answering, Iwakura Tomoyo's pale but beautiful face showed a smile that was exactly the same as May, as bright and dazzling as the sun.Just when Wu Yue was dazed, her thin body emitted a soft light, and then, countless small and lovely light spots floated up into the air from her weak body.
"There's not enough time... In short, seeing you together... Mom feels very relieved... So I don't want to destroy this beauty..."
The dots of light slowly rising into the sky are like stars and fireflies.As Tomoyo Iwakura's body became more and more transparent, the originally dark and gloomy stone room was gradually illuminated by the shining "stars" that had covered the ceiling at some point, like a pure and clear starry sky, but more beautiful than the real starry sky. Surrounding Itsuki and Hibari Kyouya beside her more brilliantly and more tenderly.
"...the daughter of the Iwakura family...a bright and dazzling existence that can illuminate all darkness at any time...from now on, mother will protect you in this way...so Wu Yue, and Kyouya , you must work hard to be happy..."
"Also, May... Do you remember your dream? When you were young, you told your mother... what kind of person do you want to be?"
As the soft prayer-like voice fell to the ground, Tomoyo Iwakura had completely disappeared, only the stars shining quietly above his head.
In the starry sky in the room, a small ray of light dragged its tail and fell into Wuyue's arms. Knowing that it represented the mother who had disappeared from this world, Wuyue desperately resisted the choking sobs, the pain of her slender body was unbearable. Trembling suppressed.
The same radiance also fell on Hibari Kyouya's chest and shoulders.That clear light is the gentlest and greatest end-of-life gift from Tomoyo Iwakura who sacrificed his life for his beloved daughter.
——You must work hard to be happy.
——Do you still remember your dream, May, what kind of person do you want to be?
The transparent sadness spreads silently like ripples in the water, however, the lost darkness no longer exists.
Although transparent tears rolled down her cheeks, May, who was kneeling on the ground, stood up with her mouth pursed.Gently holding Hibari Kyouya's hand with her pale hand, she raised her head and looked straight at Iwakura Takara who remained silent the whole time.
Feeling the power transmitted from the hand that was holding her, Wuyue opened her mouth awe-inspiringly and told her dream all along.
"I hope that I can have a strong and unfettered soul like Kyouya. I want to be a free person who cannot be bound by anything."
——So, no matter who is restricting this dream, even the most
