Chapter 127 Countdown 4 Human Experiment
Chapter 127 Countdown 4 Human Experiment
After receiving the news, Tsukuyomi Tsukumi immediately returned to Heian-kyo.
The head of the Kamo family had already received the order and went there first. Tsukuyomi Tsukumi and Zenin Kazuhiko were invited to the imperial palace without even a moment's rest.
In the extremely magnificent hall, the emperor sat high on the magnificent golden steps. Even though he had just ascended the throne and was still very inexperienced, the majesty on his face was real.
Tsukuyomi Tsukumi dressed very casually, always wearing a moon-white kimono, and did not change into formal attire just because she was going to meet the Emperor today.
He also had complicated feelings about the Emperor.
Having seen too much suffering among the people, the oppression of the nobles, and the inaction of the bureaucrats over the years, it was difficult for him to have any good feelings towards the decision-makers in front of him, let alone paying them a salute, that was even more impossible.
Ryoumen Sukuna had never taught him how to be servile, and he had no intention of bowing down to anyone.
He was accompanied by Zenin Kazuhiko. Originally, it was the head of the Zenin family, his father, who was supposed to be present, but now he has almost completely undermined the power of the Zenin family.
Besides...
He was wearing a purple straight-skirted court gown with a double layer of black feathers over the haori, which was very formal. His hair was tied up and fixed with a emerald-inlaid gilt crown. His slender body was straight, and he looked handsome and had an innate nobility.
He secretly glanced at Tsukuyomi, bowed to the emperor hastily, and retreated to Tsukuyomi's side, looking at him openly without blinking.
Because this matter involved royal secrets and was not very glorious, he waved his hand to send the servants away long before the two of them came in.
But who doesn't know the origin of the name of Heian-kyō?
The so-called royal secrets are just what they themselves are unwilling to mention, so the people can say nothing about it.
The emperor originally put on a serious attitude, wanting to give the two of them a warning.
A true god who is too powerful to be a threat to his rule.
A cynical heir who disobeys orders.
Seeing that the two of them had no intention of taking him seriously, he coughed twice and quickly got down from the dragon throne, smiling brightly, and walked towards Tsukuyomi.
"This must be Tsukuyomi-sama? I've heard rumors about Heian-kyō for a long time, and seeing you today is indeed true. Sigh... it's also because the court was in turmoil during that time, so we didn't host a banquet to welcome you."
The Emperor's lineage claimed to be descendants of gods, so they were naturally embarrassed when the real god came, but they still showed respect on the surface.
The so-called welcome is nothing more than a show of power.
Tsukuyomi nodded slightly. In Zenin Kazuhiko's eyes, he looked very delicate, like a self-possessed kitten. He hadn't seen him for so long and he missed him very much. His eyes followed the boy greedily, completely ignoring the emperor who was standing in front of him and trying to talk to him.
This is normal.
Sorcerers never take ordinary people seriously.
Even the emperor is just an ordinary person with some rights to them and is very useful.
There is no more awe.
This was very embarrassing. Tsukuyomi gave Zenin Kazuhiko an elbow to signal him to be obedient.
Although he clearly didn't use much strength, Zenin Kazuhiko still pretended to be elegant and artificially cried out in pain, attracting attention.
The Emperor laughed dryly, not wanting to exchange too much pleasantries. He just said a few words to Tsukuyomi, which roughly meant that those who often come to the palace to play are gods and treat this place as their own home.
As for the treatment, wealth, rights, and rewards that gods should have, there is no mention of them at all.
"Do you want to come to this year's New Regular Festival?"
“Thanks for your kindness but no thanks”
The emperor then ordered them to be taken away.
The place where the special cursed spirit [Prince Sawara] is imprisoned is not too hidden. It is a very famous royal temple in Heiankyo.
The head of the Kamo family had been waiting for them inside for a long time.
Two old friends also came with me.
When Tsukuyomi saw the two people waiting in the courtyard, his eyes widened slightly, and his surprised look was very cute.
An old monk noticed his gaze and nodded slightly, as a greeting. Who else could the other tall monk be but Genshin?
"Gen Shin! Why are you here? Long time no see!"
Tsukuyomi's calm demeanor just now disappeared in an instant. When he met a familiar friend, he took off his clothes and started talking to him.
"Yeah, your last departure was really sudden... I..."
Genshin lowered his head and looked at the boy in front of him who was not in a gloomy mood. His ears turned red and he scratched his head, not knowing what to say. The old monk beside him closed his eyes and sighed.
Zenin Kazuhiko narrowed his eyes, squeezed over, and insisted on interrupting their conversation.
The next second, the people who were chatting intimately were interrupted.
The head of the Kamo family undid the seal without a word. Suddenly, a strong wind blew in the courtyard, and a black ominous aura of cursed energy spread out, turning into vine-like things that attacked them madly. A figure with bloodshot eyes walked out from the thick black fog.
Tsukuyomi didn't have time to think so much, he immediately stood in front of everyone and opened up his domain, trying to offset that wave of attacks.
"Domain expansion: the realm of the true sutra—"
But it was too late.
Since the moment when the head of Kamo family lifted the seal, they have stepped into each other's territory, and this special cursed spirit
The scope of his territory is the entire Heian-kyo.
Zenin Kazuhiko resisted the aggressive vines in front of him and came to the side of the head of the Kamo family. Before he could see clearly, he punched him hard in the back.
"You bastard! Why didn't you open the seal without our permission?"
The other party did not respond, but turned his back to them with his head drooping. Zenyuan and Yan were furious. The sorcerer guard beside them pulled the two apart and accidentally knocked off the other party's hat.
"Ahhh!"
This is not a living person!
There was a glaring stitch on the forehead of the head of the Kamo family, twisted and crooked, as if it was not done very skillfully. It was okay because he had a hat to cover it during the day, but now he could not help but scream when he saw the other person's face clearly.
Blood oozed out of the opponent's mouth and nose.
"I'm not breathing!"
Zenin Kazuhiko narrowed his eyes, pulled his wrist, turned it over and took a look—
There are large patches of corpse spots everywhere.
He had been dead for a long time. The marks on his forehead... must have been from someone opening his skull and turning him into a puppet to be driven and walked.
