"Is it really okay to participate in that kind of victory with such a half-hearted attitude?" Jiang Cheng, who was still sitting cross-legged at the door, looked at Qingming who stepped out and walked towards the front yard step by step, and reminded lightly, "I don't quite understand what you onmyojis are, but according to what you said, you who spread your power all over Edo will really die if you participate in that kind of victory."
"And that ex-husband, although I don't know exactly what happened, but even an ordinary person like me can feel that he has become much stronger than when I first met him, and he is stronger than you are now. A lot... Even so, do you still want to go?"
Qingming didn't reply, and he didn't even slow down his steps at all. He just gently raised his hand to say hello behind him.
…
Not long after Seimei left, Outodomaru, Shinpachi and Kagura came over. Several people moved to the reception room nearby.
Jiang Cheng was lying on his side on the floor, holding his head with one hand as if he was closing his eyes and concentrating. However, only he knew whether he was really just closing his eyes and concentrating.
"Will the rain...will stop..." Gintoki, who was sitting cross-legged under the eaves at the door, said softly while looking at the dark sky and the rain that never stopped.
"Who knows, unfortunately I can't read the way of heaven." Waidōmaru, who was kneeling in front of the table in the room, said casually while eating senbei, "But there is only one thing that can be predicted, that is, Seimei-sama will die. . Daoman is stronger than before, and the curse mark engraved on his face is probably the result of borrowing power from evil in order to defeat Seimei-sama."
"Wait a minute," Jiang Cheng, who was lying on his side on the floor, said without raising his head, "that curse mark is different from the first time I saw him. What's going on?"
"It's indeed different, or it's not the same thing at all." Outodomaru slowly explained, "As I said before, the two never opened their hearts after getting married, and they didn't even hold hands. For not being in love For Dao Man, who has experience points, if he wants to ease the relationship between husband and wife and make the relationship go further, he can only choose other methods. The curse seal that Mr. Jiang Cheng saw before was the ancestral inheritance of the Mili Ye family. It can be increased little by little. A charm for masculine charm, but it has no effect at all.”
"What an idiot," Jiang Cheng curled his lips in disdain, "Chasing women relies on such evil things."
"But... it is precisely because of these evil ways that Doman is now much more powerful than Seimei-sama who sent many shikigami to protect Edo and his power was scattered." Outomaru continued, minding his own business, "If we concentrate our power It is still possible if we go to one place, but Seimei-sama’s position does not allow this. There is absolutely no way he can win the current Doman in his current state."
"Will the situation change if we go?" Gintoki asked without looking back.
"Then it depends on whether this 'us' includes Mr. Jiang Cheng..."
"I have nothing to do with them, and I don't want to get involved in this kind of thing. I'm not a fan of that flat-chested girl, and I don't want to marry into this family." Jiang Cheng waved his hand and replied casually, "I'll stay here. You should know the reason. I will not go back until I understand it. If you understand it, please tell me with kindness. If this continues, I may die. You must know that I am S. The feeling of being hung up like this all the time is really unpleasant.”
"Lord Jiangcheng, all I can say is that some things have no meaning at all if I don't recall them myself." Waidōmaru replied, "That existence is also torn between seeing you and not seeing you. Yes. And...the time of that person's existence is running out."
"It's true." Jiang Cheng sat up and scratched his hair a little irritably. "Troublesome things come one after another. It's really annoying. After hearing such words, I cared even more. Even if I want to say it, I don't care and go back. In this case, it will become unspeakable. Besides, isn't it the existence in your mouth that took away my memory? You let others forget without permission, and you want others to remember without permission. It's really lovable. Where’s the guy who can’t get up…”
"Uncle, are you obsessed with Aru by the woman you once had?" Kagura asked curiously.
"Stop talking nonsense," Jiang Cheng waved his hand and replied casually, "No matter what I say, it's impossible to find that kind of being who can't tell whether it's a human or a monster to do anything for you. It’s too early.”
"No, doesn't Jiang Chengsang just need to be beautiful and have a big European style?" Xin Bajia pushed up his glasses and said expressionlessly.
"You virgin kid, don't talk like you understand the adult's affairs. You're obviously just a virgin." Jiang Cheng curled his lips in disdain.
"Hey! That's too much! Jiang Chengsang!" Shinbachi expressed his dissatisfaction with his veins popping.
Jiang Cheng hummed softly and then said to himself, "Well, forget it, since the other party wants me to recall it first, I have no choice but to work harder to find clues, ZZZ..."
"Hey!! You said you worked hard but fell asleep in the blink of an eye!" Shinbaji complained crazily, "You really worked hard!"
"That's not the case," Jiang Cheng defended as he opened his eyes, "I just thought I might be able to find some clues in the dream."
"Who believes it!!"
…
"Then... Gintoki-sama, I would like to kindly remind you." Waidomaru glanced at Gintoki and reminded lightly: "Don't get involved in this matter anymore. Do you know why I was attracted by Crystal-sama? Sent here? Just to stop you. I have been ordered not to let you take risks. Your lives are the top priority in all actions."
"Why is this like this!" Shinbachi on the side suddenly became anxious, "Are you just going to refuse to save Seimei-san? Aren't we the only ones who can fight together?"
"Do you know who will be the saddest person if the sister-in-law dies, Bobo!" Kagura shouted angrily, "You don't care even if you make Anchor Yuno cry, Aru?!"
"Huh huh huh..." Gintoki stood up at some point, with his right hand in his kimono pocket, and walked slowly towards the main door. At the same time, he chuckled softly, "You didn't put me in the first place." Think of it as the master, well, it doesn’t matter. I’m not used to giving orders to others anyway. This time I can regain my freedom.”
As soon as Gintoki finished speaking, he was stopped by Gaido Maru who came to him in the blink of an eye.
"Boom!" A loud noise sounded, which was the sound of Outodomaru's mace hitting the floor in front of Gintoki.
"You, a person who can't even summon a shikigami, will only cause a rain of blood if you go there." Outodomaru looked at Gintoki's company with cold eyes and reminded him coldly.
"What does it matter?" Gintoki's tone was unexpectedly relaxed, "It's this kind of weather anyway, it doesn't matter whether it's wet with blood or wet by rain, it doesn't matter whether it's spring rain, autumn rain, or blood rain. …I will move forward even if I get wet, but…I don’t want to get wet by a woman’s tears…”
Seeing Gintoki's expression that remained unchanged, Sodomaru took back the mace and held it behind his back again.
"Didn't I say it before?" Outodomaru's expression softened slightly, "Shikigami will always look at the master. I have been waiting for your words. Gintoki-sama, I admit you, you are my other A master. From now on, no matter what kind of danger your life encounters, I will block it for you. No matter what kind of hail of bullets, I will protect you together. So, Gintoki-sama, can you please and Can I help Master Crystal together?”
After sighing softly, Gintoki scratched his natural curls that were still dry even if it rained, "I will do it without you telling me, but in exchange, don't act like a master and a servant anymore. troublesome."
As he said that, Gintoki extended his index finger and pointed at Outōdōmaru, "Also, don't call me Gintoki-sama all the time. Call her..."
"Asshole, stupid, idiot, bastard, crazy fan, natural rolls are enough." Jiang Cheng, who was leaning at the door, took over, "This is his favorite title."
"Hey! I'll kill you!" Gintoki instantly rolled his eyes and bulged his veins as he cursed.
"That's right, I understand." Uidomaru nodded and shouted to Gintoki very kindly, "Asshole, idiot, idiot, bastard, stupid fan, Natural Roll-sama. Please take good care of me from now on."
"Hey, do you want to be killed by me too?! Call me president!"
"Hey, I get it." Uidomaru nodded, "Asshole, idiot, idiot, bastard, idiot fan, President Natural Roll. Please take care of me."
"There is no difference at all!!!"
…
On the other side, Seimei has arrived at the indoor arena prepared by Doman for the Shikigami 3V3 Conjuration Death Battle.
"Are you here? Qingming." Daoman, who was standing on the ring, looked at Qingming who was walking towards this side step by step, and mocked, "You are actually alone, you are really confident."
"I alone am enough," Qingming stopped, raised his head and looked at Doman on the ring without squinting, "It's that simple."
"Hmph, you're not ashamed of your words." Daoman snorted disdainfully, not taking Qingming seriously at all.
"Doman, you said that if I win, you won't attack Crystal again!"
"The people of Yili are different from you. They will abide by the agreement." As he spoke, Daoman's voice suddenly became softer, and the expression on his face became calmer. "Qingming, the weather battle is almost about to be won. I lost, but do you know why I specifically asked you for a decisive battle?!"
Daoman's expression suddenly became fierce. At the same time, Daoman opened his hands, and two thick dark red ominous spells stretched out from Daoman's arms and rushed towards Qingming at high speed.
Before Qingming had time to react, his throat was locked by these two unknown spells and he was lifted into the air.
