Konoe Ryo stood up and said seriously: "Back then, the average life expectancy of the Goshe family was only thirty years old. People thought that this was because the Goshe family wanted to maintain the purity of their bloodline, so they always intermarryed within the family, resulting in the frequency of genetic diseases.
The result of the discovery, but they don’t know that the Wushe family has been weakening their royal bloodline to dilute the power of the curse; now, there is less than a 10% chance that the Wushe family’s newborns will be born with a curse.
, and the power of the curse is not as powerful as before."
Looking at Ichijo Masaga, who was shining brightly in front of him, Konoe Ryo shrugged and said, "Yes, I was born with a curse, so my luck has been very bad over the years, otherwise I wouldn't be here."
During that banquet, I choked on something I was eating, so I grabbed the golden mead from my brother’s hand and drank it, causing me to be sent directly into space.”
Having said this, Konoe Ryo shook his head with a wry smile, picked up his water glass and said: "But fortunately, after my trip to outer space, although my luck has not improved, my passive skills have changed."
It has become a halo skill, so that when I am unlucky, I can still see a guy who is more unlucky than me, so I feel much better."
As soon as Konoe Ryo finished speaking, the cup in his hand suddenly cracked. It seemed that the water in it first "smashed" on the table, and then all of it splashed incredibly toward Ichijo Masa.
In this way, although Konoe Ryo's cup was broken, the person who was drenched in water was still a positive person, and Konoe Ryo could be said to have never touched any water.
"Whether you believe it or not, I really didn't do this on purpose."
Ryo Konoe shrugged, threw the broken cup into the trash can and said, "This is my favorite cup, and it's also out of print. You can't even buy it now."
"My dress is also my favorite customized version, and its maker also passed away some time ago."
Ichijo Masaga said without changing his expression: "No wonder a newborn in the Ichijo family mysteriously disappears every few years, and no one talks about the existence of this newborn. When I was young, I thought I heard it wrong.
Later, when I became sensible, I thought these newborns were sent somewhere to be used as hostages, or used as tributes, but I didn't expect that they were all the same people as you, Mr. Konoe."
"Yes, the most common way for the Wushe family to deal with this kind of newborns is to foster them in other families. These families are basically from the small families affiliated with the Wushe family, so that they can ensure that those
Newborns live a pretty good life. If nothing happens, they will never know that they are actually members of the Wushe family. As for why the Wushe family does this, to put it bluntly, it is still weakening the sense of existence of the curse and striving to survive in the future.
One hundred years will completely dilute the curse to a level that does not affect normal life."
"Oh? In that case, I really hope that I can be like you, Mr. Konoe, so that I can have a normal family and be a spendthrift happily."
Ichijosama touched his chin and continued: "So, Mr. Konoe, why weren't you sent away by the Konoe family?"
Konoe smiled, pointed at himself and said: "Why I was not sent away by the Konoe family is because there are too few family members in my generation. Compared with my father's generation, they are directly reduced by half.
, plus the family's past is not clear, so the Konoe family did not send me to other families for foster care; of course, another reason is that the type of curse I received is bad luck, and it is bad luck that only affects myself.
Luck, so it won't have any impact on other people, and there won't be any big problems if you stay in the family. And I have a cousin who is cursed with the same feeling - he can make people around him affected by his emotions.
"
"Isn't this a very powerful ability? If he can penetrate into the enemy's interior and then strike at a critical moment, the people around him will definitely make operational errors after being affected. If he wants to annihilate him,
These enemies are much more convenient." Ichijo said with a raised eyebrow.
Konoe nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, my cousin was sent to a seemingly ordinary family, but his parents were both retainers of the Konoe family, and then under the guidance of his parents
Next, my cousin will join a group that is hostile to the Konoe family..."
"Wait a minute, this cousin of yours isn't Makoto Watanabe, is he?"
Ichijo was suddenly interrupted: "If I remember correctly, decades ago when our most important family business, Ichijo Manufacturing, was completing a very important order, a series of unexpected things suddenly happened.
The incredible accident not only caused the order to be unable to be completed normally, but also resulted in many contracts being breached. As a result of these continuous blows, one manufacturing company had to sell off part of its assets, and was ultimately replaced by other companies.
was annexed by the family business, and the assets of the Ichijo family have shrunk by one-fifth as a result!”
"I paid attention to this matter at the time, or I would pay attention to anything that could make a family miserable, so I found this matter very strange. It was not that someone deliberately destroyed a manufacturing production line, but a manufacturing production line.
Employees suddenly became restless collectively, which led to various work-related injuries and accidents. Later, too many work-related injuries occurred from time to time, causing the mentality of the remaining employees to change again. From time to time, some people would break down and cry.
The chain reaction that followed caused everyone in the entire workshop to cry."
Looking at the curious Ichijo Masaga, Konoe nodded and said, "Yes, my cousin's name is Makoto Watanabe. The company he was working for at the time was Ichijo Manufacturing, and the position he applied for was a clerk in the Human Resources Department; I feel the same way.
After so many years of weakening, this curse has become a double-edged sword. If used properly, Watanabe's sincere positive emotions will have a positive impact on the people around him, so Watanabe's sincerity relies on
With his special skills of being able to encourage employees to work hard, he became a very fashionable encourager at the time, and could often go to various production workshops to act as a close brother."
"A bit cruel."
Ichijo Masaga touched his chin and said: "It is actually not difficult to control a person's emotions, especially when the people around him cooperate with each other, so Watanabe Makoto is just like the protagonist in "The Truman Show"
Similarly, living in the studio built by your Konoe family, I think Watanabe Makoto has never failed since he was a child. The classmates around him are also very good to him. The most important thing is that he also has a pair of parents who love him very much.
After he was born in the society, he also met a good girl who made him want to spend the rest of his life with him; of course, he was also very lucky to join a very famous company at the time - Ichijo Manufacturing."
"In Ichijo Manufacturing, Watanabe Makoto relied on his cheerful personality to quickly establish relationships with his colleagues, and he performed very well in guiding his colleagues several times, so he was regarded by his boss as a non-staff psychologist.
Teacher Shu... As a result, the good times did not last long. Watanabe's parents were suddenly diagnosed with terminal illnesses at the same time. This made Watanabe's mentality suddenly become depressed, but his work must continue;
Then a few days later, Watanabe's girlfriend died on the spot due to a car accident, which caused Watanabe's mentality to collapse."
Having said this, Ichijo Masaga shook his head and looked at Konoe Ryo with a wry smile, "The imperial family is the most ruthless, and we nobles from the royal family are not much better. We actually destroyed a person just to attack our opponent."
His whole life, and this person is also a direct member of his family!"
Konoe Ryo closed his eyes, nodded and said: "You are right, our big families are too heartless sometimes... As you just said, Watanabe Makoto encountered a situation in a short period of time.
After a series of blows, his mentality completely collapsed, and his empathy curse also brought his emotions to everyone around him, which caused the employees of Ichijo Manufacturing to have the same problem, so Ichijo Manufacturing became
History; and in order to avoid being discovered by your Ichijo family, our Konoe family completely gave up contact with Watanabe Makoto after that, and since then Watanabe Makoto has been lost to everyone."
"Yes, our Ichichi family has also carefully investigated the ins and outs of this matter, and also discovered the key figure Watanabe Makoto. However, although we know that Watanabe Makoto may have been taken advantage of, because of the layout of your Konoe family
For more than 20 years, we couldn't find any useful clues at all, so we could only arrange a few people to keep an eye on Watanabe Makoto. As a result, we didn't find any clues until his death... But what's very interesting is that
, Watanabe’s son, Watanabe Masao, became the leader of a small secret church. After being sent to Black Rock Mountain Prison, he recently escaped from Black Rock Mountain Prison.”
"Um?!"
Konoe Ryo said with some surprise: "How is this possible? No one has been able to escape from Black Rock Mountain Prison for so many years. After all, the employees of Black Rock Mountain Prison are all mythical creatures with great strength. Watanabe Makoto lost his close friend
After the attention of the Wei family, he is just an ordinary person. Even if his son becomes the leader of the secret church, it is impossible for him to be powerful enough to escape from Blackstone Mountain Prison."
"It stands to reason that this is correct, but Blackstone Mountain Prison was suddenly attacked by other mythical creatures during that time, so Watanabe's son Makoto escaped with several other inmates, and his whereabouts are still unknown.
..After all, no one cares where such a nobody is hiding; but what’s even more weird is that Watanabe Masao has a son named Watanabe Ryusei. After graduating from high school, he established a very weird secret church. In this secret church
There is no one who can fight, and this secret church without a single mythical creature directly worships the King in Yellow."
Looking at Ichijo Masaga with a smile on his face, Konoe Ryo also smiled and said: "This is indeed weird enough. Although the King in Yellow is not the Old One, he still belongs to the Old One after all.
The important avatar is a level higher than the leaders of the clans, so I have never seen the secret church directly bypass Baiyaki to worship the King in Yellow. So what is the name of this secret church of Watanabe Ryusei? In the future I will
If you meet them, you still have to help them. After all, this Watanabe Ryusei is my cousin's grandson no matter what, so rounding it off, he is my grandson."
Ichijosei thought about it for a while and then said: "It seems to be called the Yellow-Clothed Sect? If I'm right, that's the name. After all, secret churches that mainly worship the Yellow-Clothed King are so rare in the island country."
"Indeed, the King in Yellow is sandwiched between Bayaki and Hastur, so it is normal that there are not many secret churches that worship him."
Konoe Ryo took another cup and filled it with water, and said with a smile: "I have to stay away from you this time, so as not to get you drenched by me again; back to the topic, except for some people in our Wushe family
It will be cursed when it is born, and other people may actually trigger the curse, just like Emperor Jimmu back then, who was cursed by the ancient gods for doing things it shouldn't do, and these prohibitions are for everyone.
A direct member of the Wushe family will be informed by their elders when they reach adulthood."
Hearing Konoe Ryo say this, Ichijo Masa couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "The day I came of age, I went directly to my mother's hometown and stayed for a month. After I came back, my father never looked at me again.
, and the other members of the Ichijo family also treat me as nothing, so I really don’t know what the prohibitions are.”
"as I expected."
Konoe nodded and said: "Then I will mention to you the first two things that uninformed people are most likely to make mistakes - the first one is to intentionally harm ordinary people. This is actually easy to understand, because the ancient god back then
It was for our ancestor, Emperor Jimmu, to manage his followers so that everyone could live a good life. Therefore, the last thing that ancient god wanted to see was for Emperor Jimmu to use his power to oppress others and bully ordinary people by relying on his status as a divine envoy.
people."
"Hiss~ No wonder the Ichijo family never cared about me. It turned out that they expected me, the second generation ancestor, to bully ordinary people and get cursed, so that they could justifiably expel me from the family. Fortunately, although I
They are some bastards, but I still despise bullying ordinary people."
Ichisumasa first showed a happy expression, and then suddenly frowned and said: "Wait a minute, if I order people to make a fuss about those natural gas tanks this time, then if there is a problem with the natural gas tanks, it will cause serious consequences to the ordinary people who use them.
If I get hurt, will I be cursed for it?"
"Of course you will be cursed, that's why I just said that you might have been set up by someone."
PS: My cousin is getting married tomorrow, and my brother-in-law and I have a good relationship, so I will be the best man...so I will touch it tomorrow.
