Shape Moon, The Road to the Magician

After finding the Wu Jing sisters who knew the Tono family best except Tono Qiuye, Xia Yuan began to find the secrets about Luo Ya and the Tono family from them.

But when he heard the truth behind this, he couldn't help but clenched his fists.

……

Kohaku replied:"We are the descendants of the Wu Jing family. Tono Shinkyu adopted us just to use the power in our blood to suppress his reversal impulse."

The Wu Jing family is also one of the four major families in exorcism. Its blood has the ability to purify. If used properly, it can indeed be used to suppress the reversal impulse of the Tono family's demonic blood. And the best way is... thinking of that possibility, Xia Yuan fell silent and did not speak. Look at the girl in front of you quietly

"When I was nine years old, Tono Shinkyu called me into his room and forcibly defiled me. After that, he asked me to go to the basement to accompany Tono Shiki to restrain his reversal impulse.……"

Sure enough... the answer he got was not beyond Xia Yuan's expectation. He used the Wu Jing clan to restrain his impulse to reverse.���The best way is to exchange body fluids.

Fortunately for Tono Akiha, as she is also a woman, she cannot have the most direct exchange of body fluids with Kohaku, and can only rely on eating the blood of Wu Jing's lineage to suppress it.

But if the other party is a male... the previous head of the family, Tohno Shinhisa, adopted them just to use this characteristic to maintain his own sanity.

For this reason, he even did not hesitate to tarnish the amber that he had when he was nine years old.

When Kohaku was tainted by him, in order to protect his sister Emerald, he made an agreement with Tono Shinhisa. She could help him suppress his impulses, but Emerald must live a normal life.

Perhaps out of inner guilt, or perhaps out of fear that Kohaku would seek his own death and lose the way to suppress the demon's blood, Tohno Shinkyu agreed to Kohaku's request and let Jade go, allowing her to live a normal life.

Later, Shiki Tono resurrected and became even more violent because of the blood of the demon. Under the order of Tono Shinkyu, Kohaku had to enter the dungeon to help Shiki Tono restrain himself.

So under the abuse and violation of the Tono family day after day, Kohaku's personality finally collapsed, and endless flames ignited in her heart, anger, sadness, hatred... These emotions tore her apart all the time. mind.

So in order to take revenge and completely solve the hidden danger, Kohaku secretly learned professional herbal knowledge, and actively cooperated to help Tono Shinkyu and Tono Shiki to restrain their reversal impulses, gradually allowing them to completely let down their guard.

During this period, she also used the opportunity of being able to enter and leave Tono Shinkyu's room to investigate in the dark and found out that Tono Shiki, like herself, was a descendant of the demon exorcism family and originated from the Nanaya clan.

The Nanaya clan was destroyed by the Tono family. Tono Shinkyu just used magic to seal Tono Shiki's memory, making him mistakenly think that he was a child of the Tono family.

Although he didn't know what the purpose of Tono Shinkyu keeping Tono Shiki was, but after learning that he was also a miserable person who had everything destroyed by Tono Shinkyu like him, Kohaku also felt a little more sympathy for Tono Shiki. Feel.

Finally, at a suitable opportunity, she used her knowledge of herbal medicine to add poison to the medicine that Tohno Shinkyu drank daily, causing Shinkyu Tohno to die prematurely in the study.

After Tono Shinkyu's death, Tono Shiki naturally lost his shelter in the dungeon, so she thought of using this method again to poison him, but at this time, Tono Shiki's body underwent unimaginable and abnormal changes. , no matter how powerful the poison is, it can't kill him.

Xia Yuan:"……"

After investigating this, Xia Yuan was able to determine who Roja was, the so-called eldest son of Tono, Shiki Tono.

The answer to why the poison made by Kohaku did not work on Tono Shiki was simple, because ordinary poison could not kill Roja, the ancestor of the Dead Apostles.

So Xia Yuan asked:"Is Shiki Tono still in the dungeon?"

"No...he has been released by me."

Let it go?"

"……Tell me your reasons. You won't let him go so easily."

"Yes."

The hypnotized Kohaku nodded, and then, under Xia Yuan's questioning, he elaborated on the plan he had planned for many years, a huge plan that encompassed countless hatreds and intended to destroy the entire Tono family. He slowly told...

Kohaku's plan. Very detailed.

After discovering that poison could not kill Tono Shiki, she began to mix hallucinogenic poison into Tono Shiki's meals, and kept hinting to him that everything was Tono Shinhisa's fault, and finally made him Shiki Tono went crazy before returning to Tono's house.

Then Kohaku secretly released Shiki Tono who was imprisoned in the dungeon, and allowed him to commit atrocious incidents that killed a large number of tribesmen and ordinary people at Tono's house.

This also led to the attachment. Roja, who was in Tono Shiki's body, successfully escaped, and Kohaku's purpose was to let Tono Shiki cause chaos in Misaki City, and then attract the attention of the Tono family, which claims to be a demon-killing family, and finally do it himself. Through matchmaking, Tono Shiki attracted the hatred of Tono Shiki and Tono Akiha, and a battle broke out between them.

The last step of the plan was to start a fight between Tono Akiha and Tono Shiki. At that time, she broke into it and took the initiative to sell her flaws to attract Shiki Tono to kill her.

But she was betting that Akiha Tono, the only member of the Tono clan who was good to her, would risk his life to save her and then be killed by Shiki Tono. Death.

As a result, Tono Shiki attracted the hatred of Tono Shiki for killing Tono Akiha, and was finally killed by Tono Shiki.

At that time, Tono Shinkyu, Tono Shiki, and Tono Akiha. The whole family died, and her revenge was completed.

This was also the revenge plan that Wu Jing Hubo had been preparing for several years.

Xia Yuan could not help but comment that her plan was very detailed and courageous, and she would not hesitate to sacrifice her life. I bet that Tono Akiha would sacrifice himself to save her, regardless of whether he could succeed.

……

"What do you do when something succeeds?"

This time Xia Yuan lifted the illusion in the amber alone. He wanted to hear the true thoughts of this girl with hatred.

Bing.——！！

"What exactly do you... do?!!"

Hu Bo, who had just escaped from the illusion, was in a daze, but the memories just now came to her mind like a tide.

When she saw her younger sister Jade standing next to Xia Yuan, her eyes still empty, she immediately felt anxious. He got up and hurriedly asked Xia Yuan loudly:"What did you do to my sister?!"

Because Xia Yuan had placed a soundproof barrier in the room in advance, Amber's shouting did not attract the attention of others.

"Calm down, Miss Amber."

Xia Yuan raised his hand to stop the agitated Amber in front of him, and said in a deep voice:"I didn't do anything unreasonable to Miss Jade, she is just immersed in my illusion now."

"Don't worry, she won't remember all the secrets and plans you just told me. I will be responsible for making her forget everything she just heard in a while."

Hu Bo, who was overwhelmed by Xia Yuan's easy behavior, after realizing the strength gap between the two sides, feared that the other party would hurt Jade, decisively stopped the useless struggle, and then looked at Xia Yuan in front of him with cold eyes, and asked:"What on earth do you want to do?"

"I sneaked into this mansion this time just to explore the secrets about the Tono family."

Xia Yuan shook his head and chose to tell the truth.

"Sorry to hear about your revenge plans and tragic past, Miss Amber."

"You...are you going to tell Miss Akiba and Master Shiki about this?"

Seeing her biggest secret being revealed, Wu Jing Amber's body trembled a little.

The destruction of the Tono family, the devil's cave that had tortured her all her life, has become her only motivation to survive, but now her biggest secret has been revealed. If he tells Miss Qiuye about this, then...

Amber's eyes reveal despair.

"No, I won't do that."

Xia Yuan shook his head slightly, sighed looking at Amber who was on the verge of collapse, and then replied

"I won't do that kind of thing. This is a grudge between you and the Tono family, and I won't get involved."

"You won't stop me?"

Xia Yuan's answer made Amber a little surprised.

Logically speaking, Xia Yuan, who had reached a cooperation with Tono Akiye, should be on the side of the Tono family, but why did he make such a choice? This made her Doubts arose in her heart.

At the same time, she was afraid that Xia Yuan might expose her plans.

After all, her heart had died as early as nine years old, but she was worried that if it happened because of her. What should I do if the plan is exposed and my sister Jade is implicated?

At this time, murder is undoubtedly the best choice, but the mysterious young man in front of me who claims to be the current head of the Einzbern family is far more powerful than himself. She needed to move her fingers to kill her, but such an action would not work at all.

At this moment, she had completely lost the initiative...

Seeing Amber's face turn desperate, and her white hands began to tremble unconsciously, Xia Yuan shook her head. Shaking his head, he came to her in an instant, put a finger emitting light blue light on Amber's forehead, and then used the magic of awakening to restore some clarity to her mind.

"What exactly do you want to do?!"

Amber, who had calmed down a little, asked him.

"Every injustice has its own owner. This is the grudge between you and the Tono family. I won't stop you, and I won't tell anyone. I just want to hear what's in your heart."

"What's on your mind?"

Xia Yuan looked at Amber's uncertain eyes and continued:"Since you dare to bet that Tono Qiuye will definitely save you, it means that you are very important in her heart, even to the extent that she will not hesitate to give her life to save you. situation"

"Then, your revenge is right. The object of your revenge is the Tono family who ruined your past and ruined your life. But taking advantage of Tono Akiha's kindness and friendship towards you to complete your revenge is just an extreme approach."

"So I want to hear, how do you view this kindness, and how do you accept yourself strangling this kindness to death?"

Xia Yuan's words were like a sharp blade piercing Amber's heart, directly pointing out the biggest shadow in her heart.

Yes, Tono Akiye was different from other members of the Tono family. She had never been persecuted from beginning to end. He has never used her as a tool. Whether he treats her or Jade, he treats her as a friend.

But... she is also a member of the Tono family, and everyone in the Tono family deserves to die, this damn monster. The clan must be destroyed... Her hatred and her heart have been twisted and broken by so many years of abuse.

For this reason, she would not hesitate to use Tono Akiha and Tono Shiki, who were good to her.

In response to Xia Yuan's words, she gritted her teeth and gave the answer

"I will commit suicide, and when the revenge is over, I will repent for my use of Miss Akiba to kill her. After this revenge is completed and my sister is settled, I will go to the place where Miss Akiba died to kill myself!"

Although Amber's voice was trembling and struggling, it was still ringing.

She would never give up on this revenge.

From the moment this plan was formulated, she was already prepared for her own death.

As long as she could get this The demon clan is dragged into hell, no matter what she has to do, she can accept it calmly

"That's it……"

After hearing Amber's voice full of determination and witnessing her realization for revenge, Xia Yuan didn't say too many words, but just sighed softly.

The Earl once said:"For an avenger who is ready for awakening, any words are just an insult to her awakening."

He will not persuade Amber to let go of her hatred, nor will he personally help her get revenge. , some things have to be done by her own hands after all.

Then he put his palm in front of Jade and gave the order to forget everything he just heard.

After accepting this instruction, Jade soon staggered and passed out. Xia Yuan then caught her and put her on the seat in Amber's room, and covered her with a quilt.

"What are you……"

"I have erased her memory of just hearing our conversation, so she will not remember what you said. When she wakes up, you can find an excuse to get over it. Your sister should trust you.

Seeing that Xia Yuan was true to his word, Amber lowered his head and said softly:"Thank you for your kindness."……"

"No, this is not the kindness I bestow upon you, but the recognition of your enlightenment. I once had a very good friend who was also a person with hatred, but with his own will and wisdom, he finally completed his revenge on those enemies."

"And I have seen your eyes in his eyes, so come on, no matter what the ending is, it is your choice. I hope I can see the day when you successfully take revenge."

Xia Yuan patted her shoulder gently and affirmed her will.

If he followed rational choices, Tono Akiye would be more helpful to him at present. He should tell Tono Akiye about Amber. Eliminate this uncertain factor, but Xia Yuan did not do that. Everyone was a victim in this matter. Tono Shinkyu and Tono Shiki hurt Kohaku, and Kohaku used Tono Akiha and Tono Shiki for revenge. , is nothing more than a spread of hatred.

The only real sinners are the dead Tono Shinkyu and the reincarnated Tono Shiki. All tragedies originate from here, so let them develop on their own. To settle this grudge.

If it were the count, would he feel the same way when he saw this girl? Would he make the same choice as himself?

After all, I know that guy’s awkward character best.

After hearing these words, the tense Amber eyes closed, tears flowed uncontrollably from the gaps in her eyes, and she knelt on the ground, her tone trembling.

"Thank you...thank you...for this great kindness...I……"

Looking at Amber, who was already crying in tears, Xia Yuan sighed helplessly, and then asked:"Do you still know what Tono Shiki is doing now?"

"have no idea……"

Amber shook his head

"Where is the Tono family's dungeon? I'm going to take a look"

"The dungeon is located……"

After getting the answer from Kohaku, Xia Yuan simply left her room and continued exploring the Tono family's mansion.

He first sneaked into the rooms of Tono Akiha, Tono Shinhisa, and the secret study hidden in the Tono family, found the notes left by Tono Shinhisa, and read the contents recorded in them.

The record on this is indeed basically consistent with the Aozaki family's files and what Kohaku said. This guy is indeed a standard magician beast.

In his own mind, his level of disgust is even comparable to that old bug Matou Zōyan.

Xia Yuan found a photo of Tono Shiki with Tono Shiki in his room, and took a photo of Tono Shiki's specific appearance with his mobile phone, and sent it to Kuonji Yuju, asking her to use the Song of Sixpence to Misaki. Please look for this guy and don't act rashly.

Afterwards, he followed the coordinates Kohaku gave him and successfully found traces of Shiki Tono's life in the dungeon behind Tono's house.

Although that place has been abandoned for a long time, there are traces of life in one of them. Whether it is the fire on the ground, the steel chains on the ground, or the walls are all covered with scratches made with stones or claws due to anger and impulse. Countless cracks.

It's hard to imagine that a human being was once imprisoned here, instead of some kind of terrifying beastly creature.

The large and small medicine bottles on the floor of the cell, as well as the residual smell of herbs, can also prove that Kohaku did use Tono Shiki to test medicine here.

It's just a pity...

Now based on speculation, it has been confirmed that Roja was reincarnated into the unlucky guy Shiki Tono.

If Amber hadn't let him out, that guy would have been able to deal with him directly if he met him here.

But we still don’t know where he is hiding now?

Really, this family is still���It was a lot of trouble, and it was so bloody that it gave me a headache.

It would be fine if it had nothing to do with it, but as luck would have it, this place has become the center of the storm, and everything in sight has been sucked into it.

Thinking of this, Xia Yuan raised his hand and rubbed his temples, and couldn't help but start thinking.

The investigation is almost done.

What should I do next...
