"… Bloodline, Jade Mirror of Inheritance!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a beam of light shot out from Manchuri Kagura's chest. Then, a half-real, half-illusory object that looked like an ancient bronze mirror emerged from Manchuri Kagura's chest and flew into the air along with Chizuru Kagura's hands, which had turned from pressing down to holding it in her hands.
At this moment, Chizuru Kagura bit down hard on her lower lip, using her pearly white teeth to bite a neat row of small wounds on her soft lips. A trickle of blood immediately gushed out, dying her lower lip bright red.
Then, Chizuru Kagura's hands retracted, and with a solemn expression, she guided the round mirror in front of her, and finally, she slowly pressed it on her chest.
In an instant, the light of the round mirror condensed into a ball of pure energy, and quietly melted into Chizuru Kagura's chest.
"Ugh …"
Chizuru Kagura instinctively let out a muffled groan, and then her body loosened, and she softly fell down. If she hadn't used her hands to support herself in time, it's not impossible that she would have fallen down directly.
It was obvious that this seemingly simple inheritance ceremony consumed a lot of her energy.
After calming down, Chizuru Kagura called out, "Come."
"Whoosh …" The closed sliding door was opened, and two witches were kneeling in front of the door.
"Lady Chizuru." The two witches called out in unison.
"Have someone prepare the ceremony." Chizuru Kagura ordered in a light voice.
"Yes."
Miko-sama nodded and closed the door again. She then got up and walked out of the room with quick steps.
The so-called ceremony was actually passed down from ancient times, and it was an ancient ritual used to bury the body of the inheritor of a Divine Artifact. In fact, it didn't contain any special meaning or power, and it could even be said that it was purely used to show the nobility of the wielder of a Divine Artifact to outsiders and members of the family, and to show them the dignity and respect that they should have as the inheritor of an ancient destiny.
Therefore, the steps were very complicated, and just from the burial alone. The simple process of burying the body took two full days.
"You guys can go back first." Chizuru Kagura stood in the cemetery used by the Kagura family to bury the witches and looked at the tombstone with the words "Kagura Mantori" written on it.
"Yes." The clan members, elders, maids, and guards standing behind Chizuru Kagura responded in unison, bowed, and left the cemetery.
For a moment, the entire cemetery fell silent. Only the occasional rustling of leaves in the summer wind echoed in the cemetery.
After a while, Chizuru Kagura said to the tombstone, "Sister, I will fulfill my family's mission and send the Orochi Clan back to where they belong."
After saying that, he no longer hesitated. He turned around and strode out of the cemetery.
Her valiant appearance and resolute steps were a clear indication of Chizuru Kagura's strong determination to the world!
It didn't take long for Chizuru Kagura's figure to completely disappear from the Kagura family cemetery.
But at this time, accompanied by an obscure ripple in the void, Sei Itō's figure suddenly appeared in the Kagura family cemetery. Standing in front of Mantori Kagura's tombstone.
Then, Sei Itō stretched out his hands, and without any other movement, a figure wearing a golden crown, red pants, and a white witch costume appeared in the next moment. She was wearing a thin gauze robe with a pine crane pattern, and a white foot bag. She had simple makeup on her face, and she had a serene smile on her face. She looked like she was just sleeping, and her body suddenly appeared on Seiji's arm. She pressed down on Seiji's arm, causing his hands to drop slightly.
Looking at the corpse in his hands, Sei Itō chuckled, and then disappeared with the corpse.
The next moment, inside the Rubik's Cube world, in the northern desolate area. Sei Itō's figure appeared with Mantori Kagura's corpse in his arms.
Then, he still didn't make any movements, but the ground not far from him suddenly surged, and the soil rose and changed. It didn't stop until it finally condensed into a rectangular platform of earth and stone.
Sei Itō carried Mantori Kagura's corpse to the platform, and gently put her on it.
Then, he withdrew his arm, and with a flip of his hand, a green ball of light exuding strong vitality appeared, and threw it into Mantori Kagura's corpse.
Almost as soon as the ball of light entered Mantori Kagura's body, the wounds that originally existed under her clothes quickly closed, healed, and grew back. Within a few seconds, the wounds disappeared from Mantori Kagura's body along with the scars.
Then, Sei Itō reached out and grabbed Mantori Kagura's wrist, and released an electric discharge ability.
In the next second, a flash of electric light appeared from Sei Itō's palm, and then inside Mantori Kagura's body, which couldn't be directly observed by the naked eye, the nanomachines that were mixed in her cells, blood, and near her nervous system suddenly became active, and ran rapidly in Mantori Kagura's body at a specific frequency.
Under the influence of these rapidly running nanomachines, the blood that originally still contained a certain amount of vitality was brought up and flowed through Mantori Kagura's blood circulation system through her entire body, delivering nutrients to her internal organs, which were also protected by the nanomachines and the vitality that was originally injected into them, and still maintained the lowest level of vitality, activating their original function. Then, with the cooperation of the newly injected vitality, the vitality of Mantori Kagura's body was completely restored.
"Thump, thump, thump, thump …"
A rhythmic heartbeat sounded from Mantori Kagura's chest.
At this time, it could be said that Mantori Kagura was basically a living person, except for the fact that she didn't have any brainwave signals. At most, she was a living dead person in a vegetative state.
Then, Sei Itō waved his hand and summoned the Leia Stone crystal that was stored elsewhere, where Mantori Kagura's soul was sealed. He activated the barrier on it, and without any explanation, he extracted Mantori Kagura's soul from it.
"What are you doing!?" Mantori Kagura's thoughts were filled with anger and helplessness.
"Of course, I'm going to resurrect you." Sei Itō chuckled.
"Wh-what!? Resurrect? "Mantori Kagura was shocked.
"Yes, resurrect. Why? Don't you want to? "Sei Itō asked with a smile that wasn't a smile.
"Why are you doing this?" Surprisingly, Mantori Kagura didn't doubt whether he had the ability to resurrect her. Instead, she questioned him warily in her thoughts.
"I see that you're not bad, so I want to take you into my harem." Sei Itō replied with the most frivolous attitude he could muster. And as if to increase the credibility of his words, Sei Itō even reached out to Mantori Kagura's soul in front of her, which had already come back to life. He slid in through the lapels of her mako costume, grabbed her full breasts, and began to knead them wantonly.
"Hmm, nice touch. You're really worth having." Sei Itō nodded seriously.
"You, bastard." Although she couldn't feel it, Mantori Kagura suddenly felt a sense of shame and anger when she saw her body being desecrated.
"Hehe. So what if I'm a bastard? Can you stop me? "Sei Itō raised his eyebrows and asked rhetorically.
Mantori Kagura froze for a moment, then sank back down.
Indeed, in her current state, other than shouting and cursing, she really couldn't do anything else. She couldn't even make herself disappear. Out of sight, out of mind.
Seeing Mantori Kagura's silence, Sei Itō smiled slightly, held Mantori Kagura's soul in his free hand, and placed it on Mantori Kagura's forehead.
Almost instantly, the soul that represented Mantori Kagura's soul sank into Mantori Kagura's forehead without any resistance and disappeared.
Then, about ten seconds later, with a low moan, "Hmm …" Mantori Kagura's soul finally regained contact with her body. Her eyelids trembled as she slowly opened her eyes.
"Am I, am I alive …" Mantori Kagura said in a daze.
"What do you think?" Sei Itō said with a chuckle as he clenched his fist and fiddled with something with his fingers.
"Hmm …" Mantori Kagura, who suddenly felt a strange sensation, subconsciously let out a low moan.
Then, Mantori Kagura came back to her senses, and without saying anything, she turned around to attack. But it was a pity. Because she had been dead for several days, her body's energy and nutrients had long been depleted. Coupled with the second consumption during her resurrection, what little energy she had left in her body had been squeezed dry, and even the hidden energy in her cells had been used. Now, let alone fighting, Mantori Kagura couldn't even do the most basic things like turning around and raising her hand!
"You've noticed. Your body is very weak right now, so it's better for you to recuperate. Don't try to be brave. "Sei Itō clenched his fist again and pulled back his arm. Then, he gently stroked Mantori Kagura's lower lip with his index finger.
Knowing that she couldn't resist, Mantori Kagura stared at Sei Itō with a serious expression and asked, "Who exactly are you?"
"My name is Sei Itō, and I'm the man who's here to break your destiny." Sei Itō chuckled.
After that, he left the northern desolate area with the resurrected Mantori Kagura and appeared in a small house called 'Witch's House' in Italy on the God Murdering Continent. He handed Mantori Kagura over to the owner of the house, Lucrecia Zola, to take care of her.
Then, Sei Itō stayed in the Witch's House for half a day. Then, he kissed Lucrecia goodbye in front of Mantori Kagura, flashed out of the Rubik's Cube world, and returned to his villa in the King of Fighters world.
The following days were peaceful and quiet. Every day, he either took time to go to the agency to watch the rehearsals of the Inferno Band of the Three Heavenly Kings, or went to Mai Shiranui's dojo out of boredom. Taking advantage of the favorable impression he got when he treated Terry, he continued to refresh her favorability without Mai Shiranui knowing that Andy was dead. This made Mai Shiranui have a little more favorable impression of him than ordinary male friends. Or, he would call Mary, who was far away in New York, and chat with her for half an hour.
In this way, more than a month passed in the blink of an eye.
"Clang, clang, clang."
On this day, Sei Itō was browsing the Internet in boredom, looking at some new pictures posted on the blog of 'Wife of Tuandi'. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in." Sei Itō said loudly as he shrunk the webpage.
"Creak."
The next moment, with a soft sound, Athena Magong, in a blue and white sailor uniform, pushed the door open and walked in.
"Athena, you are finally willing to come to the company?" Sei Itō said with a smile.
"Well." Athena Magong stuck out her tongue embarrassedly.
"Well, this is a local specialty I brought back from China. I hope you will like it, Mr. Itō." Then Athena Magong, who was in front of the desk, put the paper bag in her hand on the desk, took out a tea box from it, and put it in front of Sei Itō.
"Tie Guanyin?" Sei Itō said with a smile, looking at the Chinese on the tea box.
"Yes." Athena Magong nodded and admitted.
"Since it is Athena's intention, I will accept it." Sei Itō stretched out his hand, and Tie Guanyin's box fell into his hand automatically.
Seeing Sei Itō's casual use of his superpower, Athena's eyes immediately lit up.
"Want to learn? I can teach you. "Sei Itō said with a smile as if he was tempting an ignorant girl.
"Can I?" Athena asked with some expectation.
"As long as Master Zhen doesn't mind, I have no problem with it." Sei Itō said casually.
Speaking of which, although Zhen Yuan Zai's martial arts strength and realm were very high, and he could even comprehend the power of the universe, he was still an ordinary person and not a superpower user. Although he also had the means to train a superpower user like Shiekuni, who was not born with a superpower, he still couldn't give Athena too in-depth guidance in the details of superpower. He could only teach her control and combat thinking, and indirectly guide Athena to develop her own superpower.
But even so, the effect was still not obvious. At least, Shiekuni, who also received this kind of teaching, performed very poorly. He was not as amazing as Athena's performance!
Of course, this didn't exclude the possibility that Shiekuni was too playful and didn't use his mind in the right place. Also, Athena still had the inheritance of her family, so her understanding of superpower was far above Shiekuni's.
"This …" Hearing this, Athena, who respected her master, couldn't help but hesitate.
"How about this, you can still practice your superpower with me, but you have to hide it from your master and Shiekuni. The two of us will practice in secret. What do you think?" Sei Itō suggested very considerately.
"… Okay." Athena hesitated for a little while, then bowed and said, "I will be looking forward to your guidance in the future, Mr. Itō."
"No need to be so polite. Just like how I call you Athena, just call me Itō, or Sei Itō. That's fine." Sei Itō waved his hand and smiled.
"Okay, Yi … En, okay." Athena straightened up and said.
