7-Preparedness entrance ceremony ⑥



 
 In the annex on the grounds of Jilin High School, there is a building called Taishan Hall, which is reminiscent of a Chinese Taoist temple.
 The building is usually known as a place for meditation and zazen, a form of spiritual discipline for troubled students and others. To the students, it is not a very impressive place.
 Three old men are sitting in the main hall of this dimly lit temple in a U-shape, discussing with each other.

''Kazura. Is it good? I'm not allowed to live alone...

Um....

Don't you think it would be better to keep them under us?

Sun Wei. I want that man to make his own choice about his life.

Well, things have changed a lot since we first talked about it. Isn't that why we're here, because it's dangerous?

 Sun Wei's originally thin eyes narrowed further, but it was a gentle expression.

''Well, that's good, but as usual, my apprentice's constitution cannot be cured. It's a shame that so much spiritual power has been wasted.

It can't be helped. That's just a side effect. If his mother hadn't discovered his peculiarity before he was born, he wouldn't be here today.

It's because I managed to suppress one of them. But it's because of this that he has lost control of his spiritual power.

'Very well. The only thing I can do is to seal the door and repair the boundary between the Du Du family's administration and the outside world. That's a great improvement.

Well, they are all white goods that could shake the world. That's one thing I can tell you. Especially that cave, which must be kept secret from everyone.

That's what the Du Du family is for. This is the birthplace of the Du Du family and the reason for joining forces with the Immortal World. The Demon's Grotto is the only place you mustn't let anyone know about. After all, it's the biggest and only hole that leads directly to the demon world...

 The other old man, who had been silent in front of them for a long time before, opens his mouth as if he were talking to himself.
 His voice trembled more weakly than the other two.

It was difficult that time..... A misunderstanding led to a misunderstanding, and I got serious for the first time in about a hundred years. The first generation of the Du family.......I don't want to kill someone like that again.......

"How dare you say that........Gao. After that, you and the first generation were the closest of friends!

In the end, I gave away a daughter as a wife. The first generation already had a wife.

That was a terrible time. It's been nearly a thousand years, but I still can't forget it.

The Du Du family came out of the Devil's Passage. It's no wonder you misunderstood us. We didn't know that there were people in the demon world that formed a society and a country.

 Gao, the person in question, is sipping his tea in silence as if it were someone else's business. The two old masters sighed heavily.

''........So, how is his sacred art now, from Sun Wei's point of view?

''It's still uneven, but it's not as good as a centuries class Daoist. I wonder how much combat experience he gained in the Demon World when he passed through the Devil's Grotto this spring and went to see Liaichi....... No, that's not all. It's that he had a natural talent. And he also has the instantaneous power of youth........

It looks like he's taken up something else in the demon world.

I heard the story from Ryoichi, too. It must have been hard for him at his young age.

About three years over there and two weeks over here. I heard that it took almost two years to meet Ryoichi. Ryoichi said he wished he could have met Ryoichi a little earlier.

"It's a good thing that the mainstream of time is still here, even though the flow of time is different from this one, so there's very little physical growth. Otherwise, there would have been a great deal of confusion about it, as they were growing up.

 Then Takano Birei walked into the dimly lit main hall and offered her a fresh cup of tea.

I'm sorry, Miura. I'm sorry for causing you so much trouble, too.

''.......Master Kama Zang. I am indebted to him, and I will spare no effort to repay it. I will spare no effort to repay it.

You owe me.

Yes, sir. He saved my life a year ago at that Shinagawa. I had forgotten that he was there, but...

 Sun Wei's eyebrows were long and furrowed.

Sun Wei said, "I am glad to have your daughter. Otherwise, no one but us old guys would have remembered it. It's just as the old man wanted.

No matter how much of the Shirasawa bloodline that governs the wisdom of this world, it would not have been possible if I didn't have a strong feeling for him. We brought them together, but everything else is just a coincidence. Well, when he used that ability, I did something a little unnecessary for Shirasawa.

 Sun Wei laughed lightly and flipped his smoke pipe.

"Hohohoho! The three immortals are not so different from each other. You seem to like his grandfather's position a lot more than I thought. You've encouraged Shirasawa's awakening, even if only temporarily.

 Sun Wei drops the ashes from his flue and seems to be enjoying himself wholeheartedly. Sun Wei knows that when they are as old as they are, they rarely discover anything new in themselves.
 That's what Chama Zang gave him a glimpse of the new Chama Zang. For some reason, Sun Wei couldn't help but be happy about it.

Sun Wei said, "Well, I have learned something unexpected. The next time the ability is activated, it will be harder to forget. It's because of Kazura's feelings for him. Hohohoho.

 When Sun Wei laughed at this,纏蔵's face flushed lightly. But he quickly retracted.

''Oghong........ Well, the problem will always follow us. First of all, although Ryoichi has gone and settled down now, the other side..........the movement of the demon world.

But you have left even this up to your own choice. In fact, the seal can be lifted at any time of your choosing.

.......... He's..........not the kind of man I can do anything about anymore.

 Takano Mirei listens in silence. Beside her, Soichiro Takano, the principal of Yoshibayashi High School, aka Gao, mutters....

''Everything........is decided by Heaven. Everything will be done as Heaven intended........
