Tokyo, Yin-Yang Hall.
This was not the first time Rozen came to the Yin-Yang Hall.
However, this time, Rozen came to the Yin-Yang Hall not to be invited, but to be arrested.
Now, Rozen was walking in the corridor of the Yin-Yang Hall, with a few Healing Talismans on his body, replenishing the lost blood energy, so that Rozen could finally stand up and walk.
However …
(Can my current treatment be considered good?)
As Rozen thought so, he glanced at his hands.
There, a pair of handcuffs engraved with spells were being worn.
Wearing this pair of handcuffs, Rozen could clearly feel that although the magic in his body was slowly recovering, he could not mobilize a trace of it.
In other words …
(This is a spell tool used to seal spiritual power, right?)
Exactly.
Now, So Rozen was treated as the highest-level prisoner, even the handcuffs on him were the highest-level spell tools, sealing the magic in his body.
"I'm sorry, we can't treat you as an ordinary curse criminal. If you recover, it won't be strange no matter what you do, so we can only do this."
Miyaji Bofu said to Rozen.
"Also, we can't let your shikigami continue to stay by your side, so let's arrange for them separately for the time being."
After saying that, Miyaji Bofu asked Kimutsugu Zen Jiro and Kumari to take Natsume and Suzuka away, while he personally took the Golden Crow and Jade Rabbit and left.
Now, it was unknown whether it was because the magic was sealed or because Natsume and Suzuka were locked in some enchantment, but Rozen could feel that the spiritual power connection between him, Natsume, and Suzuka had become extremely vague, and he could not even confirm where they were.
(My contract with my shikigami is already like this, if it was any other contract method, I'm afraid that even the spiritual power connection would be cut off, right?)
That was what Rozen thought.
As for the Golden Crow and Jade Rabbit …
(It doesn't matter, I can feel them at any time.)
After all, unlike Natsume and Suzuka, the Golden Crow and Jade Rabbit had long been turned into pure records, engraved in the depths of Rozen's soul. What appeared outside was just a collection of magical power. No matter what method Rozen used, he could not cut off the connection between them. If Rozen wanted, he could even cancel the summoning of the Golden Crow and Jade Rabbit and summon them again in front of him.
Of course, once the summoning was canceled, it would consume an unimaginable amount of magical power to summon Golden Crow and Jade Hare again. Perhaps he would have to release the three command seals and fully activate the Crimson Wing Formation to summon them.
(They really are two Spirit-branded Retainers that are unbelievably strong in every sense.)
Rozen laughed in his heart, then quickly changed his mind and looked around.
At this moment, four Cursed Search Officers escorted Rozen and took him to the depths of Yin-Yang Hall. They seemed to want to detain him.
(So, what should I do next?)
Rozen thought.
Choosing to compromise was just a temporary measure.
After all, Rozen was too weak now. Before he fully recovered, he needed to buy some time.
Then …
(In any case, I can't stay in Yin-Yang Hall anymore.)
That was the only thing that was certain.
Because if Rozen's inference was correct …
(Yin-Yang Hall is not trustworthy.)
Such a thought emerged in Rozen's mind.
Just when Rozen thought so …
"Sorry to bother you."
Such a voice came from the front.
Rozen was startled, raised his head, and looked forward.
In the front of the corridor, there was a young man who was dressed like a gentleman, and his every move was as elegant as a gentleman. He wore a monocle, and his posture was tall and straight.
"Thank you for your hard work."
The young man showed an elegant smile to the four Cursed Search Officers who escorted Rozen and said so.
"Next, leave this person to me. You can leave now."
The young man's tone was elegant, but the content of his words revealed a sense of indifference and unquestionable.
"You are …?"
The four Cursed Search Officers stopped and showed a surprised expression.
Obviously, they didn't know the young man in front of them, and there was no reason to listen to the young man's instructions.
However, the young man didn't seem to want to listen to the opinions of the four Cursed Search Officers present.
"Oh? Didn't you hear me clearly? "
The young man raised his head and stared at the four Cursed Search Officers. While maintaining a smile, he said word by word.
"I said, 'Leave this person to me, you can leave now.'"
When the young man repeated such words again, the expressions of the 4 Cursed Investigators suddenly froze, and they were dumbfounded.
The reason was simple.
This time, the young man's words already carried the power of the curse, making his voice aggressive, dominating the minds of the four Cursed Search Officers.
Rozen naturally knew this method.
"Spirit of Speech …"
It was the Spirit of Speech in the Emperor Style.
Under such circumstances, the four Cursed Search Officers retreated with a dull look, leaving Rozen alone and slowly left.
Only Rozen was left, looking straight at the young man in front of him.
The young man maintained an elegant posture and saluted to Rozen.
"Sorry for my rudeness. I didn't scare you, did I?"
The young man made such a statement somewhat pretentiously.
In this regard, Rozen's tone seemed a bit thought-provoking.
"I did scare a little. After all, I didn't expect you to come out at this time."
Rozen said so sincerely.
That tone was as if he already knew the young man's existence.
That was the truth.
Although he hadn't really seen the other party, this wasn't the first time Rozen met the other party.
At least, Rozen recognized the young man.
"You are one of the two Shikigami that followed Soma Duo Gaozi at that time, right?"
Rozen said with great certainty.
"That's right."
The young man didn't hide anything. Not only did he admit it, but he also maintained etiquette and made such a self-introduction.
"Please allow me to introduce myself. I am Yakamaru, one of the Princess's Shikigami."
Hearing this, Rozen narrowed his eyes.
"The Princess …?"
So Rozen weighed the weight and meaning of this title, and at the same time, looked at the young man named Yakamaru in front of him.
With this look, Rozen immediately saw it.
Yakamaru's body exuded a faint ghost energy.
In other words …
"You are a ghost?"
Rozen asked.
"You are very perceptive." Yakamaru's smile didn't diminish, and said so, "My current body is indeed a ghost, and my official name is — — Yase Douji."
"Yase Douji?" This time, Rozen was surprised. He finally looked at Yakamaru and said, "You are Yase Douji?"
— — Yase Douji.
This didn't refer to a specific individual, but the name of a Ghost Group. It was also a general name for the ghosts that belonged to the group.
These ghosts weren't the traditional ghost-type Spiritual Disasters, but to serve the souls of a certain noble bloodline. After death, they continued to exist in the form of guardians and turned into ghosts.
Since Yakamaru claimed to be Yase Douji, then who was the Soma Duo Gaozi that he served?
Just as Rozen was thinking about this, Yakamaru took the initiative to speak.
"I have no intention of offending you, but the Princess wants to see you."
Yakamaru said so.
"I wonder if you can do me the honor?"
