Me:???
Then what were you doing before?!!!
"That was a small education," Akuraba Of Goguryeo said with a smile.
Wow,
You are very tall, but you are not very narrow-minded.
However, with the help of the Spirit-branded Retainer,
Our speed suddenly increased a lot, and we soon arrived at our destination.
This was a noble city. It was said that a powerful monster had appeared in this city. Several Onmyoji had come, but they could not find the crux of the problem, so Akuraba Of Goguryeo had to deal with this matter.
Along the way,
Akuraba Of Goguryeo would occasionally teach me some knowledge of Yin Yang Technique, but he never taught me the Yin Yang Technique that I could use.
"Because your strength is too strong. Before you have the temperament to use your strength, I won't teach you the Yin Yang Technique that hurts you."
Okay, okay, okay, you know a lot, you're right.
After entering the city,
The nobles in the city received us very respectfully,
They also arranged a place to stay and prepared food.
The standard of the food was still relatively average, but it was better than what we ate a few days ago,
I had a good meal,
I took a walk in the courtyard.
As I walked, I heard whispers of discussion. I didn't pay much attention to them at first,
Because I heard the words Akuraba Of Goguryeo, I hid in the bushes and listened.
"Did someone die again yesterday?"
"Yes,
This time it's Lord Lu Zheng. "
"As expected, it's because of Tomiko, right?"
"Is she here for revenge... it's so scary."
"After all, it was Lord Kang Fu and Lord Lu Zheng... who treated Tomiko like that..."
The two maids whispered to each other for a while,
Then they left.
From this conversation, I could imagine what kind of monster it was.
I felt so angry. I didn't expect to meet such scum here! When my blood rushed to my head,
I decided to help this female ghost take revenge.
If the law of the human world couldn't punish the wicked,
Then let me use the most primitive method!
With a sense of justice in my heart,
I fell into deep thought.
... How can I help others?
… I'm sorry, I'm just an incompetent human being!
After thinking about it, I threw this matter to the back of my mind. However, to my surprise, the opportunity came quickly. It was because Akuraba Of Goguryeo had found the ghost on the second day of his arrival.
"As expected of Lord Goguryeo, you are truly too powerful." There was a hint of fear in the respect of the nobles. They even had flattering smiles on their faces. "Sir, please stay for a few more days and enjoy the scenery here."
Akuraba Of Goguryeo shook his head. "I can't leave the capital for too long. I'll pack my bags tonight and leave tomorrow."
"Yes, yes. After all, even the Emperor can't leave you." The aristocrat said as he took out a box from his attendant. "You've spared no effort to help me. This is a token of my appreciation. Please accept it."
"This is also part of my duty." Akuraba Of Goguryeo smiled and received the box. "If there are any similar things, please tell me at any time."
... Wow, these two really had a face-to-face transaction.
I was dumbfounded as I watched Akuraba Of Goguryeo give the box to his shikigami with a smile. Then, the two of them slowly left the place. I couldn't help but glance at the jar that Akuraba Of Goguryeo was using force to seal the female ghost.
This should be the female ghost that had encountered a pitiful situation. I didn't fear death and went over to open the jar. I saw a small woman sitting inside.
"Save me... Sob, sob, sob. Is there anyone who can save me..."
"Are you that female ghost?" I asked. The small person inside the jar nodded pitifully.
"Save me, please. It hurts so much..."
The moment I reached out to take the small person out of the jar, someone grabbed my shoulder.
"What are you doing?"
"... I, I'm just looking."
The smile on Akuraba Of Goguryeo's face disappeared. "What are you doing?"
Wow! Scary! The Head of Teaching found out that I was playing with my phone in class!
Once the smile on his face disappeared, Akuraba Of Goguryeo suddenly looked unapproachable. I said timidly, "Well, I think she was killed, but those people haven't been punished yet... So, I..."
"So, you want to release her?" Akuraba Of Goguryeo sighed. "She's no longer human. She's completely turned into an evil spirit. An evil spirit that kills people will only become more and more addicted to..."
"But, can you let those people who should have been punished escape?" I wasn't convinced. "Why?"
"The crimes of the living shouldn't be judged by the dead," Akuraba Of Goguryeo closed the jar again and pasted a talisman on it.
"Then, what if the law of the human world can't punish them?"
Akuraba Of Goguryeo suddenly stopped. He smiled and turned to look at me.
"I can't answer this question. Let's give it a try."
I shouldn't have asked Akuraba Of Goguryeo this question. At this moment, he didn't look like the gentle Onmyoji of the past. It was as if he had turned into another person.
"If you must see," Akuraba Of Goguryeo said and handed the jar to me, "you can let her go."
“？？” I didn't know why Akuraba Of Goguryeo changed his mind. I took the jar and looked at him, dumbfounded.
"Revenge doesn't sound bad," Akuraba Of Goguryeo looked at me and smiled. "Isn't it?"
In the end, I hesitated and let Tomiko go. However, my heart was still filled with uneasiness and nervousness.
My uneasiness was confirmed at night. Tomiko started a massacre in the city. Not only did she kill the nobles, but she also killed the servants who worked with her and her family members. She began to attack them crazily.
"Ye, Goguryeo -sama! Didn't you already catch that monster?! " The nobleman cried and knelt at Akuraba Of Goguryeo's feet. His tears and snot flowed out. "Please save me!"
"It seems that she has more power than I thought. The one we caught earlier was just her clone." Akuraba Of Goguryeo helped the nobleman up and smiled comfortingly. "It's okay. I will purify her."
After comforting the nobleman, Akuraba Of Goguryeo looked at me with a smile. "Let's go. Let's go and see the real evil spirit."
Why is he still smiling at this time?
He could have stopped me from the beginning and explained things to me. I'm not an unreasonable person. I won't let more people die like this.
Akuraba Of Goguryeo looked at me. His eyes flashed with many complicated emotions that I couldn't understand. In the end, they became a pool of tranquil water.
"Do you know what you did wrong?" Akuraba Of Goguryeo asked me.
"I know. Let's go and save them!" I hurriedly grabbed Akuraba Of Goguryeo's hand, wanting to pull him out.
Akuraba Of Goguryeo followed me to the courtyard. When we were out of everyone's sight, he stopped. "There's no need to go. I've already sent my shikigami to prevent this from happening."
I heaved a sigh of relief. Then, I realized that Akuraba Of Goguryeo was still looking at me.
Is he going to praise me?
But he's already so old … He shouldn't be like this, right?
I was already guilty of making a mistake. Now, I carefully glanced at Akuraba Of Goguryeo. "Then … Are you really a good person?"
"… I'm not a good person." Akuraba Of Goguryeo pulled my hand away. "Let's go."
He seemed to be in a bad mood. I didn't remember what had happened.
When I saw Tomiko, she had already turned into a huge, pitch-black monster. She had completely lost her rationality as a human. She kept muttering words that the living couldn't understand.
"Do you see? This is the consequence of letting evil spirits go free." Akuraba Of Goguryeo said and raised his hand. A faint light gathered under his hand into the shape of a pentagram. In the end, it turned into a black hole and swallowed Tomiko, who had already turned into an evil spirit.
But, can't I just release her soul?
I was conflicted for a moment. In the end, I didn't understand what this world was like. Since I had already made a mistake once, I didn't mention it again.
Then, we returned to the capital. I originally thought that after this, I would obediently learn the Yin Yang Technique. Then, I would finally be able to control my supposedly enormous spiritual power.
But after returning to the capital, I didn't even have a few days of peace before I was locked up.
"You must have seen it. This world is full of evil spirits and monsters that take people's lives." Akuraba Of Goguryeo sat across from me with a faint smile. "Therefore, the Emperor ordered the construction of a magic formation that enveloped the entire capital to expel the evil spirits from the capital."
At that time, I didn't react and said dumbly, "That's pretty good."
"The core of the magic formation must have enormous spiritual power. It's equivalent to a living sacrifice."
When I heard about enormous spiritual power, I had a bad premonition. As expected, the next sentence came true.
"I divined the location of the living sacrifice and went to find you."
"???"
"… What? What? What? "I was completely dumbfounded." Didn't I transmigrate back? "
"This is this child's ability. It can turn you into what you want to be the most." Count D raised his hand. On the back of his hand, a butterfly was slowly opening and closing its wings. "Don't you have any doubts?!"
