If you want to learn spells, you must first have the ability to see ghosts.
That was a barrier that couldn't be broken no matter what.
If you couldn't see ghosts, then no matter how talented you were, you wouldn't be able to learn spells and become a Onmyoji.
That was a well-known fact in the spell world.
Unfortunately, the number of Yin Yang Master embryos in this world could be counted on one's fingers. Apart from the descendants of the famous families who were gifted with the ability to see ghosts, it wasn't impossible for a person to be born with the ability to see ghosts, but it was extremely difficult.
In that respect, it was similar to Chaldea's magic family. Only the bloodline with a long history could better inherit the mysteries. It was difficult for ordinary people to have a magic circuit.
The reason why Rozen had the ability to see ghosts was because he practiced magic and could perceive life and Aura. On the other hand, it was because he had the Spirit Vision skill, which gradually allowed him to see through Aura.
And Natsume happened to belong to the type of person who had the ability to see ghosts, which was the reason why he was adopted by the Earth Royal Family.
On the contrary, the son of the branch family, Natsume's sworn brother, the Spring Tiger that Rozen mentioned, was born in the Earth Royal Family, but he didn't have the ability to see ghosts, which was an anomaly.
Perhaps it was because the Spring Tiger couldn't see ghosts, so the branch family wanted to adopt Natsume.
After all, the main family needed someone to inherit, and the branch family also needed someone to inherit.
And there was no doubt that Natsume would inherit the branch family in the future.
In that case, learning spells became a necessary thing for Natsume.
It was just that Natsume didn't seem to like spells very much.
No, it was a bit exaggerated to say that he didn't like spells. It should be said that he was afraid of the unknown, so he subconsciously avoided it.
However, Xia Mu's sense of responsibility and pride were the complete opposite of his cowardly personality. They were quite strong.
"I … I'm ready to ask my mom to teach me spells in the near future!"
Xia Mu plucked up his courage and said.
"Is that so?"
Rozen, on the other hand, raised his eyebrows.
Rozen was already prepared that Natsume would learn spells sooner or later, so he wasn't surprised.
However, Natsume made up his mind so quickly, which was somewhat beyond Rozen's expectation.
"You don't have to force yourself." "Generally speaking, although every curse family will train their descendants from an early age to lay a solid foundation, considering the complexity of the curse, it's not too late to learn it when you're too young. So, it's not too late to learn curse when you're ten years old."
Natsume said: "But my dad said that you started learning spells when you were two years old, and now it's been a few years, you must have learned a lot."
"Are you comparing yourself to me?" Rozen rolled his eyes and said: "I'm an exception.
What a joke! Rozen wasn't a little brat, so he could still learn.
Rather, Rozen loved to learn. Learning well, learning ingeniously, and learning to the fullest was Rozen's goal in life.
Of course, the reason why Rozen started learning spells at the age of two was also because of Taichun from the School of Earth Imperial.
Generally speaking, even aristocratic families would wait until their descendants were around ten years old before teaching them spells, but Taichun from the School of Earth Imperial required Rozen to learn spells when he was a sensible child. From an outsider's point of view, it wasn't strict anymore, but abuse.
For various reasons, Rozen called himself an exception.
However, Natsume still said so.
"Then … then I'll be an exception as well."
Natsume seemed to be a little stubborn.
This gave Rozen a headache.
In fact, Natsume was a very introverted and well-behaved girl. She usually wouldn't disobey the wishes of others. She often listened to Rozen and Spring Tiger's orders, running around with these two stinky men, but not only did she not complain, she even seemed very happy.
But sometimes, Natsume would also become unusually stubborn.
When Natsume became like this, no matter what others said, she wouldn't listen.
Under such circumstances, Rozen could only say so.
"Then are you okay with it?"
Rozen couldn't help but ask.
One must know that learning spells was not a joke.
If one was not careful, there might be a problem with one's spiritual energy. If that happened, one might end up like Rozen and end up with a weak physique for the rest of his life. That would be fun.
Unfortunately, Natsume seemed to have made up her mind.
"Father said, we are people from the branch family, the main family needs us."
Natsume said so softly.
"We are destined to become the main family's shikigami."
Yes.
Shikigami.
In Earth Imperial Gate, the members of the branch family would become the shikigami of the main family, which was a tradition since ancient times and also a family rule.
Although shikigami generally referred to some kind of spiritual existence, such as monsters, demons, ghosts, monsters, and so on, but in modern times, with the development of Yin-Yang Technique, not only artificial shikigami have appeared in the industry, but some people also chose to become other people's shikigami and serve them as their master.
The main family of Earth Imperial Gate had a rule that the branch family must become the shikigami of the main family, and they couldn't disobey.
Because of this family rule, Natsume's parents were Taichun's shikigami of the Earth Imperial Sect. They had always been serving him. This was also one of the reasons why the main and branch families of the Earth Imperial Sect were like brothers.
That being said, in this era, there were very few people who would abide by such uncivilized family rules.
For example, Spring Tiger, that idiot never thought about the relationship between the main family and the branch family. He lived like a wild boy every day.
There was also a reason why Spring Tiger couldn't see a ghost.
If he couldn't become a Yin-Yang Master, even if he became a shikigami, he would only be an errand boy. No one asked such a person to be their shikigami.
Rozen also didn't want Natsume or Spring Tiger to be his shikigami.
Who told him to not be the son of the main family at all?
He was the same as Xia Mu, they were both adopted.
However, Taichun never announced this matter, and for some reason, he was ready to pass all of the Earth Imperial Family's property to Rozen, an outsider. Rozen still hasn't figured out this point.
But that was Earth Imperial Gate's way of doing things, and Rozen didn't have to follow it.
At worst, when he really needed to inherit the family business, he would just run away.
Rozen always planned to do so.
But Natsume didn't.
"Since it's a family rule, we must abide by it."
Natsume looked at Rozen and spoke with tears in her eyes.
"I want to learn incantations and become a Yin-Yang Master. Then, I will serve you as Qiuguan's shikigami."
After saying this, Natsume's face turned red, and she ran away with her head down, as if she had said something very embarrassing.
Rozen stopped in his tracks and stared blankly at Natsume's departure. After a while, he muttered with a strange expression.
"Isn't he a little too mischievous?"
