Mite Akatsuki and his shikigami left.
Only Seiji was left sitting alone in the box, facing the three untouched cups of coffee, watching them cool down.
The phone rings.
Take it out and see, it really is Xia Ye.
"Hey, Seiji! How are you!?"
As soon as the phone was connected, the voice of the eldest lady rang out immediately.
Seeing the message he sent, she felt nervous and worried, so she called immediately.
"It's okay, Xia Ye..." Seiji responded, finding his tone a bit gloomy, so he coughed.
"Mitte Akatsuki has already left, he just said something to me just now." The tone changed back to normal.
"… What did you say?"
"'Get your money and get out of your way'."
"Well?"
"That's probably what you said to me." Seiji smiled.
Xia Ye was silent.
"It must be because I'm afraid of the Springfield family and think it's too risky to kill me directly, so let's do it." He paused, "It seems that even in the state of being kicked out, I am still under the protection of the family."
"Seiji..."
"I'm a little too arrogant, Xia Ye." Seiji leaned on the sofa and turned his head to look outside, "You're obviously not strong enough, but you still feel good and think you can do something, what a fool."
Xia Ye was speechless.
"Sorry, I couldn't get that guy to stop calling your name, and I couldn't beat him up on the spot."
"ha?"
"I wanted to punch him in the face so much! Just like at the Winter Snow Festival, but his shikigami was staring at him... so I had to endure it." There was resentment in the voice.
Xia Ye: "..."
The eldest lady of the president didn't know what expression she had now.
"The current me is really too weak. Although I am steadily improving my strength, it is not enough. I need to improve more quickly." Seiji said seriously.
"Xia Ye, is there any place where I can retreat and practice? It's the kind that can absorb natural energy after going in for a while, and then transform."
"Transform into size! No more."
"A place where you can get powerful summoned beasts is also fine."
"Neither!"
"You can also try the sealed ancient treasure."
"Even if there is, I can't let you go!"
Really
"Seriously, isn't there a way to greatly increase strength in a short period of time?" Seiji asked seriously.
"This is not a juvenile manga..." Xia Ye sighed, "If you are serious, there are some, but most of those methods do more harm than good..."
At this moment, her words suddenly stopped, as if she thought of something.
"Have you thought of a good way?"
"No... nothing."
"I don't think it's nothing, you must have thought of something, please tell me what it is." Seiji pursued.
"... I don't want to say it." Xia Ye refused softly.
"Then I have no choice but to ask Miss Fujiwara. If she can't give me a good solution, I can only ask Miss Chuntian... Although I don't know if I can ask."
"… Are you serious?"
"I told the truth."
Miss Wanhua fell silent.
Then she sighed.
"Your growth rate is already very fast, there is no need to force it, Seiji... just quit..."
"I think that guy is very upset! I want to beat him up and smash his stinky face." Seiji interrupted the other party, and said in a deep voice, "Don't ask me to do what that guy said, Xia Ye."
I will not leave you!
Xia Ye seemed to hear these words clearly.
The warmth surged in her heart, making her feel indescribable.
"Tell me, what is the method?" Seiji asked again.
"I won't be impulsive, I will make my own judgment, you don't have to worry about me doing stupid things blindly." He also promised.
Xia Ye almost laughed out loud.
You are doing something stupid now! idiot! ! She complained fiercely in her heart.
It really doesn't make sense to an idiot.
So just follow his will.
"...'The Wine of Fighting Blood'."
"What?"
"I was attending a family meeting just now, and at the meeting, I learned such information." Xia Ye explained.
"The Heiqi family, one of the Seven Great Families, and the Baimugui family have jointly studied the 'Blood Fighting Wine' for many years, and it has basically been completed."
"The so-called 'wine of fighting blood', in simple terms, is a battle between several psychic power users after signing a contract, and the loser pays 'spiritual blood' to form a 'wine' that can enhance spiritual power and psychic power. The winner drinks."
"In other words, this is a ritual to increase the strength of the winner by sacrificing the loser. If there are enough psychic power users participating in the battle, then the victor will be able to greatly increase his strength at once."
Seiji: "..."
There is a subtle sense of sight.
Multiple participants fight, the loser sacrifices, the winner gains... Isn't this the holy O war!
The form is really similar, if all the participants in the battle are a combination of onmyoji and shikigami, it is equivalent to the master and the heroic spirit, and the blood wine that can enhance the power is equivalent to the holy grail, a proper replica!
No... You can't say that, the holy o' war is a form of "fighting meeting" after all, and so is the blood wine ceremony. They are all activities of this type.
"It is said that the body or soul of the loser who gave spiritual blood will be damaged, but it is not irreversible. It can be restored to its original state in as little as a month or as long as half a year. The winner who drinks blood wine will not suffer any side effects."
"If this is true, then this ceremony has considerable value. But now only the Heiqi family and the Domeki family have conducted a secret test, and it has not been conducted publicly."
"Now they are preparing for the first public ceremony, which is tentatively scheduled to be held in January next year. At that time, representatives of various families and forces will be invited to watch, and a certain degree of inspection or verification will be allowed."
"Before actually watching the ceremony, people still have doubts even if they have the credit guarantee of one of the seven big families, don't they?" Seiji touched his chin.
"Yes, leaping strength without any side effects is very attractive to psychics, but it is precisely because of this that we must be extra cautious." Xia Ye said in a deep voice.
"Even if the wine of fighting blood does have no side effects at all as they say, participating in the battle itself is a high-risk behavior. You may be seriously injured, lose, or even die."
There was a silence.
"If you want to become stronger in a short period of time, you have to take this level of risk. As the saying goes, there is no such thing as a free lunch." Seiji said calmly.
"Seiji..."
"Thank you for telling me this, I will think about it carefully, otherwise I will participate impulsively." He smiled.
"... I will try to get detailed information about this ceremony, and I will show it to you when the time comes." Xia Ye sighed.
"That's great, thank you very much."
"Don't say that... I'm the one..."
She wanted to say something, but couldn't say more.
Then the phone hung up.
Xia Ye slowly looked out the window, staring at the snowflakes, his eyes flickering.
