The self-cultivation of the passer-by hero

The cruel fact once again tells us how stupid it is to compete with Hakurei Miko in Gensokyo.

"Ah, Master Zi, I'm so sorry that I lost so easily."

Blue, who was tied into a rice dumpling by chains made of charms, was doing self-criticism with a depressed expression. After she and a certain Hakurei miko put on a gorgeous fireworks "show" in the sky above the people, she became like this. look.

Reimu very proudly placed the blue in the most conspicuous place in the person. Regardless of the weird looks in the eyes of the people around him, and even completely ignored Takeya and Sakuya's obstruction, he put his hands on his hips and said loudly——

"Listen, Yakumo Murasaki outside, come out quickly, or else I'll shave off your shikigami's tail hair to make a pillow!"

"."

In a sense, Reimu is really strong and invincible.

"Not coming."

"Yes."

"Isn't it because Murasaki doesn't want this shikigami?"

"No, I think it's more likely that the guy is sleeping."

"."

There is truth.

With this thought in mind, Takeya no longer continued inking with Reimu, but instead turned around and walked to Lan's side.

The monster itself is an existence that relies on its powerful strength to surpass ordinary people. Originally, with the pride of the nine-tailed fox, being defeated by a human and being so humiliated, he would definitely be angry, but Lan was not.

Except for her expression of disbelief when she was easily defeated by Reimu at first, now she looks completely unconcerned.

No matter how bad Reimu said, she didn't react at all, and a closer look showed that this guy seemed to be thinking about how to sleep while being restrained.

Should I say that I am worthy of being a master and servant?

The big eyes closed and closed. The sleepy Lan probably noticed Takeya's movements, so he slowly cheered up again.

"What's the matter, Takeya-kun?"

".There's actually nothing specific about it."

Although Takeya knew Lan, it was only to the extent of acquaintance. There was no special friendship between one person and one demon, and he couldn't say anything if he was suddenly asked.

He was just curious.

"Aren't you angry?"

"Angry? What are you angry about? Is it because Miss Reimu arrested me?"

Lan smiled softly and said calmly:

"In Gensokyo, isn't it natural for a miko to lose to Hakurei?"

"That's what it says."

Wu Ye scratched his hair and seemed a little at a loss. The monsters in his impression were all people who did whatever they wanted, or were extremely willful.

Almost most of them are of the same type as Remilia. They will initiate mutations when they are unhappy. There are very few beings as "friendly" as Lan.

"Don't worry, I won't be angry at this level, it's just..."

Lan's eyes moved, drifting towards the direction of the red and white witch in front.

"Miss Reimu's power really surprised me."

As long as there are youkai who have lived in Gensokyo for a period of time, there are very few who do not know the existence of Hakurei Miko, but there are very few who know the current miko Reimu.

This is not a strange thing, after all, monsters have a fundamentally different concept of time than humans.

However, most youkai are still curious about what kind of power this generation of Hakurei miko possesses.

Although in the past, no monster would have been full enough to test the strength of Hakurei Miko, because that was not looking for fun, but looking for death.

In the era of the ancestors of witches, spell card rules had not yet been born. Demons and demons, and demons and humans, would fight head-on without any scruples. Occasionally, it would be very common to create a lake or collapse a mountain. thing.

What's more important is that the ancestor miko herself is too strong, with a body comparable to that of a monster and bottomless spiritual power. She doesn't use any treasures to fight, even if she writes "Idiot," on an ordinary piece of paper, ⑨" can be used as charms.

So at that time, except for some big monsters at the elder level, other monsters couldn't survive a single move in her hands.

Many times, the battles of the previous generation of mikos were solved with one punch. To her, there was nothing in the world that could not be solved with one punch. If there was, then two punches would be the solution.

Because the gap is so big, naturally no monster is willing to "test" the power of the witch.

But things are different now. Reimu has created spell card rules, and the power of monsters and shrine maidens has been restricted. Under such conditions, everyone can fully use "equal" power to fight.

Lan may also be curious, so she did not choose to retreat rationally at the first time, but played a barrage game with Reimu. Of course, the consequence of this "rationality" was that she was caught here as a hostage.

"Although I know you won't listen to me, but if this continues-"

Sighing, Lan said slowly:

"Master Zi will never show up."

"Why?"

"Because Master Zi's next plan is to sleep."

"."

Can you imagine how the other party must feel in such a serious situation to be able to tell such a nonsense reason in a serious manner?

"Do you know, Takeya-kun, that monsters are different from humans?"

Not paying attention to Takeya's expression of "I don't believe anything you say," Lan continued speaking.

"Monsters don't need to practice hard. They can continue to become stronger just by living. Generally speaking, the longer a monster lives, the stronger it will be."

For this, Lan itself is the most intuitive proof. The only unchangeable condition for a demon fox to grow into a nine-tailed demon fox is that it needs enough time.

The demon fox initially only has one tail, and every hundred years it will acquire an additional tail. At the first hundred years, it acquires a second tail, and at the eight hundred years, it acquires all nine tails. This is how Lan grows up. Came here.

But that's not what she's going to say now.

"Although Murasaki-sama spends most of his life resting, it is not meaningless."

hehe.

Takeru did not believe Lan's words, but used them as an excuse to maintain his master's dignity.

"Lan, do you think it makes sense for Zi to sleep in?"

"certainly."

With a tone that left no room for doubt, Lan said calmly and seriously:

"Master Zi's rest is necessary, because it has a more profound meaning."

"For example, keep the appearance of a seventeen-year-old girl?"

"If Murasaki-sama hears these words, Takeya-kun will disappear from Gensokyo within three seconds."

"...Please act as if you didn't hear it."

Looking at Takeya with a half-smile, Lan seemed to want to say something, but was interrupted by a sudden shadow—

"Master Lan! I'm here to save you!"

"No way, Orange?!"

Lan stared blankly at the figure that emerged from behind everyone, with brown hair, a small hat, cute cat ears, and golden earrings.

The sudden appearance of the monster surprised Takeya and the three of them a little bit. Takeya said that he was just an ordinary person here, but it was a little strange that neither Reimu nor Sakuya noticed her existence.

There are only two possibilities for this situation to happen, either this little guy is far stronger than the three of them, or -

She is just a fighting scum similar to Wu Ye, so weak that she can't even feel her breath.

"I will never let you hurt Master Lan!"

The little cat demon made a declaration of challenge to the three of them without fear.

Well, anyway, the momentum is enough.
