[Comprehensive] Goodbye, Asuna

The belligerence branded in the blood of the monsters is ready to boil at any time.

Asuna declined the fight, and Xian Ji showed a regretful expression: "Then let's fight again in the future."

"Okay." Asuna readily agreed.

Xian Ji poured a glass of wine, raised her head and drank it, looked at Asuna with bright eyes, and said, "It's time for 'later', can we have a fight?"

"..." How much do you want to fight?

Just about to say something, at this moment, Asuna suddenly noticed that Xian Ji's temperament changed suddenly.From being relaxed and casual just now, she became proud and elegant again, with her chin tucked in and her back straight, she looked at the black figure at the door with a relatively stern gaze.

Asuna also looked over.

"Sesshomaru." Xian Ji called out the person's name in a quiet voice, "You're here."

Asuna looked at the comer who made Xian Ji change her attitude immediately, and felt like she was watching Xian Ji's girlhood.He has a handsome face, a moon-shaped demon pattern on his forehead, an ice-cold demeanor, and a gorgeous and tasteful robe.

"Mother." Sesshomaru replied in the same calm tone.

Asuna stroked her arm and suddenly felt the temperature in the room drop.

"Have you finished your homework today?" Xian Ji is now a strict and wise, cold and powerful mother.

"Yes." Sesshomaru sat upright and nodded in response.

Xian Ji nodded, then turned to Asuna, and introduced: "This is my ineffective son, Sesshomaru."

Asuna nodded to Sesshomaru and said, "Hi, I'm Asuna."

Xian Ji interjected: "Asuna is the ruler of Baiyu Kingdom."

Sesshomaru frowned: "Baiyu Country?"

"Although it is a small border country located in a remote place, it has just taken shape, and there are not many monsters under it, and its strength is hard to compare with that of the West Country, but it can establish a country, and it is already enough for you to look up to. Now." Xian Ji sighed, "Sesshomaru, you are not strong enough, when will you be as strong as your father, enough to become the lord of a country?"

Sesshomaru replied: "Yes, Mother, I still have to work hard. My goal is not to become the leader of a small border country, but to become the leader of the greatest monster empire."

"It's good that you understand," Xian Ji's mouth showed a faint smile, "Go down."

Sesshomaru retreated.

Seeing his figure disappear, Asuna said, "I always feel like I was despised by you mother and son just now."

Xian Ji returned to her previous laziness, she casually leaned on the low table, and she waved her hand: "Don't worry. This is our education policy. My descendants must be the strongest. Of course, first , he must have the arrogance to despise everything. As an elder, he should also show the same arrogance as an example."

"It's really proud." Asuna recalled, that Sesshomaru didn't even look at her, probably because she was the "lord of a small border country", "but you, Xian Ji, are much more kind."

"When you reach a certain age and have a certain strength and influence," Xian Ji explained, "you will understand that the so-called arrogance has nothing to do with the attitude you show, but with strength. As long as you are strong, you That's enough, as long as you are strong, others will look up to you. Being strong will raise your body to a high place, and you will look down on the people below... Hehe... Asuna should understand this feeling, right?"

"Well, I don't think I agree," Asuna said honestly, "Maybe I have some specialties in military strength, but I may not be as good as others in other aspects. How can there be any difference between people?" Where does this absolute class exist?"

Xian Ji looked at Asuna faintly, examined her with golden eyes, and judged coldly: "You are not specific enough about power."

"Power isn't everything after all." Asuna said, "It's just that most youkai regard power as everything."

"That's because those who looked down on power died." Xian Ji said sharply.

The strong culture of monsters is their way of life. In the environment where the strong survive, they use power as their own value.This is not in line with the ideas of Asuna who grew up in a peaceful human society.However, there is no distinction between right and wrong in ideas, and too much discussion is just disrespect for the other party.

Asuna smiled, not arguing with Xian Ji on this topic.

Xian Ji was silent for a while, then suddenly said: "Asuna, how about doing me a favor?"

"Please say."

"Go and beat up Sesshomaru," Xian Ji smiled, "Tamp his arrogance into the dirt, and let him taste the tears of humiliation."

There is something about Xian Ji's smile that can make Asuna feel chills in her heart. Even though Xian Ji's smile is unparalleled, Asuna is not in the mood to appreciate it.

"...Are you his mother?" Asuna said complicatedly, "Do you hate him?"

Xian Ji replied naturally: "A competent parent, don't they give their children what they want?"

"Is this what he wants?"

She thought for a while and said: "I have seen humans make sweet rice cakes. Every piece of rice cakes is put into a stone mortar by them, and they hammer them hard with a hammer. Only after thousands of times can they succeed. Otherwise, even if No matter how good the raw materials are, it is impossible to make real rice cakes."

Asuna immediately understood what Xian Ji meant—isn't this the fabled eagle mother who pushed the young eagles off the cliff in order for them to learn to fly?

"...Let's find someone else to do this kind of thing. I can't do it." Asuna resolutely refused, "Speaking of which, why would you think of asking me to do this kind of thing?"

Xian Ji blinked, then raised her neck and thought for a while before answering: "Are you more likable?"

"..." You didn't think that much at all!

Asuna stayed in the palace as a guest of the Western Kingdom, and she will spend some time here for her investigation of the Demon Kingdom.But Xian Ji and Dou Ya Wang had no objection to Asuna's stay here, anyway, they just occupied a few rooms, so they just ordered the servants to do it.

Xian Ji specially ordered Asuna to clean up a small courtyard.It is an exquisite two-story building with luxurious decoration and exquisite furniture, which can be compared with the living environment of human nobles.

Asuna pointed the snake spirit to a room.The one who fought against the Fighting Tooth King suffered a lot of injuries, but his spirit was high-pitched: "He almost stripped me (of the scales)! Next time I will strip that guy! Let his every Every inch of skin is in front of me!"

Asuna went to the second floor and opened the window, took a deep breath of fresh air, and smiled comfortably at the leisurely scenery outside—the view is just right, overlooking the small yard full of wildflowers of various colors, and then looking away At one point, you can see the green mountains under the sky, the mirror-like small courtyards on the opposite side, the green tiles and red pillars, bright and lovely, and...

Asuna froze for a moment, her gaze had already met the silver-haired young dog demon, he was sitting on the roof tiles, the wind lifted his hair, the initial astonishment flashed away, and then his golden eyes He looked over without blinking, neither dodging nor evading, looking directly at him coldly.

——This is the message of invitation to fight.

Asuna froze and immediately closed the window tightly.

——Once a fight starts, warlike monsters will not give up easily.Especially these arrogant and strong men from the Western Kingdom regard winning or losing as their life, and they are afraid that if they win the first game, they will continue to fight in the days to come.

The young dog demon stared at the tightly closed window for a long time with a gloomy expression, but realized that it was a futile effort, so he turned back into the room from the roof.

It is said to be an investigation of life in the demon country, but in fact it is a leisurely experience of life.Asuna goes to her room to chat with Xianji every day. Xianji is intelligent, knowledgeable, and knows all kinds of knowledge about monsters. Asuna listens to what she tells every day, just like listening to strange novels with relish .

His background as a monster aristocrat was revealed. Knowing so many secrets about monsters, he naturally had a broader vision than other monsters.Unknowingly, it brings them many benefits and becomes the best among monsters.

Later, after Asuna reciprocated, took out the pot and showed her hands, and made Xianji rice cakes once, Xianji used different ways to order Asuna to make delicious food for her, and made all kinds of strange things. The ingredients were brought in from outside, and in order for Asuna to handle it, she did everything she could to act coquettishly, and even changed the prototype once for Asuna to see.

Of course Asuna is also happily working as a cook.

"You are so obsessed with the taste of food, you are very similar to humans!" Xian Ji said, licking her fingers after eating the monster ribs made by Asuna.

"Actually, I was a human from the beginning." Asuna said with a smile.

"Humans can obviously have some power, but they spend all their time on these things, no wonder they are not very strong." Xian Ji said, "If you use this kind of energy to pursue power..."

"Your argument, an old friend of mine once said. I was too young at that time, and I felt very hurt." Asuna heard the familiar words, thinking of Arnold in Italy, who also told her Similar words, "It can only be said that people have their own aspirations, not in what level they can achieve, but in what they want to get."

"Then what does Asuna want?" Xianji asked casually following Asuna's words.

"This question really stumps me," Asuna scratched at her hair, "Maybe it's time to stop thinking about this question."

"Cunning answer." Xian Ji commented, then looked at Asuna with sparkling eyes, and said softly, "Nana make me the sweet and sour pork that I made last time!~"

"...You are very good at eating." Asuna said with a smile, "But this shows that my cooking has conquered you."

"That's right, that's right, Nana has conquered me!" Xian Ji nodded her head without restraint.

"It's not impossible, but can you tell your son not to provoke me all the time. It's uncomfortable to see him stare at me every day. I just threw a whip at me this morning."

Xian Ji resolutely sold her son.

After arranging Yan's mother's money, Xian Ji called her son.

"Killing pill."

"..." Sesshomaru was a little strange and silent.

Asuna felt as if she had returned to the moment when they first met, that's how Xian Ji called him with a quiet voice.But this time Sesshomaru was a bit strange, he just looked straight at his mother.

Asuna also followed his gaze, and put her gaze on Xian Ji's face. She had the urge to caress her forehead--Xian Ji, the sweat on your mouth hasn't been wiped off yet!

The sauce was still on her face, but she put on such a majestic and dignified look, Asuna couldn't help but want to laugh.

Her heart moved, her eyes rolled, and she got a little mischievous idea, took out a white silk handkerchief, and moved towards Xian Ji.

She made her voice soft and soft: "Xian Ji..."

Xian Ji froze for a moment, then looked at Asuna puzzled.

Asuna touched the corner of Xian Ji's mouth with a handkerchief: "Look at you, so careless..."

At this time, it was very coincidental, and a few petals of cherry blossoms blew in from the window, and the pink petals dyed the atmosphere in the room pink.

Xian Ji stared deeply at Asuna very cooperatively, her downcast golden eyes were incredibly soft, she used her fingers to pick off the petals that fell on Asuna's hair: "Thank you, Asuna."

This powerful acting gave Asuna goosebumps all over her body.However, she found that Xian Ji, like her, was aiming at Sesshomaru's face at the same time.

Although he still looked expressionless and frosty, the shrinking pupils in his golden eyes betrayed his astonishment and bewilderment.

"Sesshomaru." Senji threw the cherry blossom petals from her fingers to the ground, and continued, "Asuna is my honored guest, don't be rude to her, you understand?"

Sesshomaru fixed his eyes on the cherry blossom petals on the ground, and replied, "Yes, Mother."

"It's good that you understand, you can go."

Xian Ji waved her sleeves, indicating that he could leave.Sesshomaru stood up, glanced at Asuna, but Asuna seemed to look away dismissively, he clenched his fist in humiliation.

——It’s fine if you don’t dare to fight!He even deceived his mother!

"It turned out that the feeling of being a traitor concubine was unexpectedly refreshing," Asuna smiled, "But I regretted seeing him so entangled. It's a bit over. I'll talk to him later."

Asuna doesn't want to be the kind of person who destroys the harmony of other people's families.

The old God Xian Ji stretched out her voice: "New Year Cake... It just needs to be tempered a lot..."

Asuna laughed so hard that she couldn't straighten up.
