Rebirth of Japan's Sekiro Legacy

Chapter 96 Balloon Path
Qiuyue knocked lightly on the door of Arakawa Wang's room, holding a prepared meal in her hand.

She wasn't sure if Nozomi Arakawa had rested, so she just knocked on the door tentatively without using much force.

There was no answer in the room.

"As expected... fell asleep?" Qiuyue was a little disappointed.

She also wanted Arakawa-kun to comment on the fried noodles she made... Thinking of this, Qiuyue looked down at the black lump of dough on the plate.

It must be delicious!
Just as she was about to turn around and leave, suddenly there was the sound of something falling to the ground in the room, which was particularly ear-piercing in the dark night.

"Arakawa-kun?" Qiuyue felt a little something wrong in her heart.

She returned to the bedroom, took out the spare room key, and opened the door of Arakawa Wang's room.

There was darkness coming from the pavement, and the sound of heavy rain beating on the windows.

Qiuyue turned on the light casually, and the room was lit up, but there was no one on the bed.

"Arakawa-kun..." Qiuyue saw that the window of the balcony was half closed, and the rain poured in from the outside.

Then something on the ground caught her attention.

An old amber bell lay quietly on the ground while the bedside cabinet was open.

"Is it Arakawa-kun's?" Qiuyue said to herself suspiciously.

The pointer of the wall clock on the wall pointed to 23:59. She picked up the bell and tried to shake it gently, but the bell did not make any sound.

"Bad..." Qiuyue gently placed the bell next to the lamp on the bedside table.

At this time, the minute hand of the wall clock turns to the right with the hour hand, and the hour and minute hands coincide, reaching twelve o'clock at midnight, which is the morning.

Qiuyue's expression was a little complicated, Arakawa-kun did not obey the door control.

...This is already the second time.

Perhaps, this matter needs to be discussed with the young lady.

"Are you here?" Jiuye Shenyuan held a black umbrella, and the rain fell from the umbrella like a stream.

"Where's the stuff?" said the tall man in the gray kimono.

"It's coming soon. This time, I will spend 250 million US dollars to hire the 'hunter' named Tianchi Naoya to get the mask from Europe first, and then spend 100 million US dollars to get the ICA killer to pick up the goods, and let him kill the 'hunter' by the way. Now, use the latest balloon transport technology to send the mask over, and tear up the contract after the balloon is confirmed to take off, I don’t need to spend a penny.” Jiuye Shenyuan smiled and beat the ground with his leather shoes very proudly, and the muddy water splashed .

"I don't know about balloons and killers," the man said, "I only know about ninjas, and aren't you afraid of the killer's revenge for your actions?"

"Revenge!?" Jiuye Shenyuan seemed to have heard some big joke, "I am a magician, as long as I hide in my workshop, no one can hurt me, but you, is the information you provided accurate? , that gargoyle mask can really make me immortal?"

"Of course, as long as you wear it, you will become a vampire. You only need human blood to survive, and spend countless hours studying your so-called magic." The man's tone was flat, "and to pursue the so-called root of your mouth." .”

"It's really exciting!" Shinto Kuya rubbed his hands excitedly, "Stop standing outside, why don't we go inside and talk?" He cast his eyes on the little girl next to the man in the gray kimono, "Here is another As for children, children are weak, and it will not be good if they are exposed to the rain for a long time."

"Indeed." The man glanced at the little girl holding his finger, "Let's go in."

The house is brightly lit, the fire is burning in the fireplace, and various reagents and magic books are piled up, like the home of an alchemist in the Middle Ages.

"Your daughter?" Shinto Kuya sat on the sofa with a bowed body, brushing the girl's face with his fingers.

The girl did not resist, and stood indifferently.

"No, I don't have any children." The man declined the tea offered by Shinto Kuya, "She's just a child who lost her mother."

"It's so pitiful." Jiuye Shenyuan looked the little girl up and down, and said tentatively, "Why don't you give it to me as an adopted daughter?"

The man did not speak, but tapped the handle of the knife with his thumb.

"Just kidding!" Kuya Shinto laughed, "But I have a question, why did you provide me with this information for free?"

"Because you are pursuing immortality..." the man said, "and it's not free. After you get the mask, you have to find more food to expand the scale of your blood slaves."

"Wouldn't that be too eye-catching?" Hisuya Shinto frowned, "I'm afraid those people from the Church of the Holy Church will come to the door."

"It won't be long," the man said. "It's just a period of time. After that, you can fly away."

"You won't stab me in the back when I'm about to take off?" Kuya Shinto smiled.

"There's no need for that, you're just a target." The man said, "It's enough to create blood slaves and attract attention."

"Yes." Jiu Ye Shenyuan readily agreed, this is not a dangerous thing, as long as he creates a blood slave, he doesn't have to come forward himself, and the degree of danger will be reduced to almost zero.

He stared at the little girl, and thought again: "But when I get the mask later, I have to prepare 'food', right? I think this little girl is pretty good, and she can develop into a blood slave."

"She is too small, not strong enough, and not strong enough, what's the use of being a blood slave?"

Jiuye Shenyuan was devastated, but he was not angry, he looked at his watch: "It's time."

As he chanted, green rays of light poured out, interweaved, and converged into a three-dimensional map.

"Is this magic?" A trace of surprise flashed in the man's eyes, "It's really amazing."

"I'm not afraid of you seeing, you're not an ordinary person, I can feel the magic power fluctuations on your body, and you won't hide it yet." Jiuya Shenyuan smiled, "This is the map I drew, a small half of Tokyo map, do you see the lavender dots on it?"

The man looked intently, and sure enough, there was a lavender light spot suspended in the green ocean, moving forward continuously.

"This is the balloon with the package. I left a magic mark on it so that I can check its trajectory." Kuya Shenyuan said proudly.

This was one of his favorite magic tricks, and it was not easy to track someone down.

His family is a magic family that has been around for more than a hundred years. It cannot be compared with other magicians, and the magic background is too poor. However, he still learned this kind of relatively high-level magic, which is considered remarkable.

"Have you seen this red building?" Kuya Shinyuan said, "This is where we are currently, and the balloon will be above us in a while."

"I don't think it may be..." the man said lightly, "The path of the lavender light spot is changing."
