"Did you call me so late because you missed me?" Kamaba Yui chuckled from the other end of the phone, already acquiescing to the affirmative answer.
Aoi Keisuke gave a noncommittal hum.
"I have something to ask you."
"Okay~"
Kamaba Yui's voice jumped for joy, and she could vaguely hear the sound of her kicking the quilt. Then she huddled in the quilt and turned over, lying on her side, and continued chatting with Keisuke Aoi.
The lead-like black hair slid down the snow-white neck and spread out on the pillow.
Kamaba Yui hummed like a kitten and listened quietly to Aoi Keisuke's story.
But in fact, her focus was not on what Qinggui was talking about. Instead, when she was about to finish speaking, she suddenly said: "Qinggui-kun, kiss me."
"..."
The call was silent for nearly thirty seconds before Qing Keisuke continued as if nothing had happened.
Kamaba Yui rolled around happily in the quilt and took the initiative to give her many sweet kisses.
When Aoi Keisuke said he wanted to hang up, she calmed down and began to answer Qing Keisuke's questions seriously.
"The reason you don't understand Qinggui-kun is because you don't know a supreme rule once formulated by the General Alliance. This rule directly changed the entire underground world and returned chaos to order.
Its name is ‘Sword Master’s Destiny’.”
"Destined by the Sword Master?"
"Well, it gives all swordmasters rights and responsibilities.
First, the Sword Master can choose to open a dojo in a certain area. Where the dojo is located, the Sword Master's majesty cannot be violated and he has the right to judge human life.
Secondly, the Sword Master is responsible for governing the dojo and maintaining the order of reality."
Kamaba Yui further explained: "Below the Juggernaut is the dojo, and underneath the dojo, a different kind of 'gangster' was born.
It is difficult for the General Alliance to completely manage every corner of the underground world, but after the Sword Master suppressed it, all chaos began to spontaneously move closer to the strong. Relying on the dojo, new rules with local characteristics gradually emerged."
Qing Keisuke can understand the emergence of this change very well, and its essence is - the admiration of the weak for their strength.
Rely on the strength of the Sword Master to deter all hidden wild practitioners from top to bottom.
At the same time, those with the protection of the dojo are inherently superior to those hidden "talents".
The gangsters attached to the dojo can use this to further radiate the influence of the Juggernaut, forming a tangled spider web that tightly binds those practitioners who try to cause trouble.
As long as the Sword Master can control the attached forces, it means the realization of overall stability!
If we rely solely on the Federation, we don’t know how much money and manpower would be invested in achieving this goal.
This rule formulated by the General Alliance not only gives the sword master the power he deserves and prevents the sword master from relying on force to ignore the general alliance, but also cuts out a mess - presumably no sword master will refuse such generous conditions.
After understanding the structure of the underground world, Aoi Keisuke understood what the so-called "Mountain Pavilion" was.
"Who suggested this?" he asked.
"This is a secret~"
Kamaba Yui lowered her voice and said, "I can only tell you secretly."
"It's one of the elders of the General Alliance, Kamihara Koichi."
Koichi Kanbara…
Qing Keisuke carefully wrote down this name. Wise men of any era should not be underestimated, and as he does more things, sooner or later he will enter the field of vision of these people.
"The gangs controlled by the dojo are usually required to be named after the first character of the sword master's title. If it is the 'Shan Yukan', it should be the sword master 'Shan Tong'."
Kamaba Yui said: "It does not refer to the mountain boy in Ghost Stories, but refers to the 'Mayama-ryu' he created. The sword moves of this school can attract the weight of mountains by opening and closing.
Shantong Swordsman's most widely circulated 'mountain-destroying' sword once destroyed a mountain. It is rumored that Shantong Swordsman has been studying fast swords in the past few years. I wonder if there are any new results."
Aoi Keisuke thought thoughtfully, if the Yuzawa realm falls under the jurisdiction of Yamado Swordsman, will Tetsuya Yozakura also seek his help after being injured?
So, will what happens in Daze Mountain attract the attention of the Sword Master again in the future?
It is even possible that Shantong Swordsman has already explored Daze Mountain with the General Alliance, but there is no good way to deal with the curse and pure domain in the mountain.
Of course, it is also possible that you are deliberately turning a blind eye.
After all, the curse of Daze Mountain does not have the ability to spread outwards, so it can be easily solved by sacrificing some insignificant human lives.
Officials can choose to block the news and let it slowly fade away.
Otherwise - the life of the explorer is not life?
The Federation has no claim to collect "taxes" from ordinary people.
After that, Aoi Keisuke chatted with Kamaba Yui about some insignificant things, and she pestered him to call out his familiar name, asking for good night, and finally kissed him hard before the two ended the call.
Qing Keisuke put down his phone, looked at the screen, and fell into deep thought.
After a long time, I gave up thinking and lay down on the hotel bed and fell asleep.
…
That night, he dreamed of Weizi again.
She was still squatting alone in the middle of the lake, with a corner of her umbrella stained with dirty blood.
Qing Keisuke walked onto the dark lake, and hands came out to grab his feet, trying to drag him into the water, but before they could touch him, he was burned by red flames.
The blood on Weizi's umbrella became more and more stained, gradually turning from vermilion to black.
Halfway through, Qing Keisuke had to stop, looked at Qinzi's frowning face, and asked, "Have you not found your home yet?"
Weizi held an umbrella, obviously in great pain, but still showed a trace of innocent smile when he heard the words.
"yes."
"Then why are you here?"
"I do not know……"
"Give me the umbrella." Qing Keisuke stretched out his hand.
"Is that okay?" Weizi hesitated for a while, then shook his head.
She laughed quietly again.
Weeping child's smile was completely different from anyone Qing Keisuke had ever seen before. It looked peaceful and gentle, and there was a sense of compassion on that childish face.
Aoi Keisuke doesn't hate this pure compassion, even though even Weiko herself may not understand this emotion.
But this ignorance actually adds to the beauty.
So he took the initiative to fall into the black lake, and before the huge shadow swallowed him up, he raised his hand to grab the entire dream and tear it to pieces.
When he woke up in the middle of the night, the afterglow of his dream turned into spots of light, drifted out the window and disappeared.
The moonlight on the window sill is cold, seeming to extend a corner of the dream.
He walked to the window, opened it, and let the night wind blow into the room.
Yuzawa had already fallen asleep, the town was shrouded in quiet darkness, the moon and stars were sparse in the sky, the clouds were thin, and there was no sign of rain.
At this moment, Qing Keisuke inexplicably hopes to have enough magic power to change the weather.
