Chapter 393 The Last Day of the World

"Since it's a mask anyway, I think calling it 'Face' would be quite fitting."

Jia Ji made the suggestion with a smile.

Everyone around him clutched their heads, as if they were wearing masks of pain.

This person is completely immersed in his own art of naming, oblivious to the world around him.

"I have a feeling that if we use this name, something extraordinary is bound to happen." Miko's fighting spirit keenly caught this point.

It's hard to say about the other people or gods, and I'm not familiar with Modoro at all, but I do know Qin Hesheng, or rather, his superior Prince Shengde.

Although the world is different, Prince Shotoku is quite famous no matter where he is.

—Just watch a couple more episodes of "Gag Manga Biyori Go" and you'll see, although neither Matsuo nor Basho are in it.

"Since it's a mask that Qin Hesheng used, why not call it Qin Xin?"

Seeing that Menreiki touched her face and revealed the "joyful lion face," she felt her mood improve. Well, it seems her taste in naming things is quite good.

Qin Xin, when reversed, sounds like "mood".

“After a hundred years, objects must transform into spirits to be called tsukumogami. They are all beings born after being abandoned by people…”

Yukari Yakumo reminded her, "Since you've decided to keep her, you should treat her well."

She was quite kind to these little monsters from her own faction.

"I know."

Seeing that Yakumo Yukari nodded, it was clear that she would do the same without Yakumo Yukari saying anything more.

During the intense monster extermination event, Qin Xin used her abilities to help her a lot. The suit composed of sixty-six Noh masks could switch modes at any time to enhance herself.

For example, when she switches to "Angry Spider Face", as a practitioner of emotional martial arts, her combat power immediately rises to a new level after being driven by anger. Her opponents will also be affected without realizing it, revealing their weaknesses.

With Menreiki and her teamwork, the two of them defeated many powerful opponents.

Like its owner, if it could take human form in another hundred years, then Xiao Qinxin would probably be a very powerful fighting expert.

"He's practically a weakened version of a demon, he has a lot of potential..." Jagi glanced at him and couldn't help but start talking nonsense, "Do you want me to cry all the time? Sorry, I can't; do you want me to laugh all the time? Sorry, I can't either..."

"Stop, stop, stop!"

Yukari Yakumo made a stop gesture. "I didn't call you here so you could come here and use tired jokes."

She paused for a moment, a serious expression appearing on her face.

"The time is ripe. The age of monsters is passing, and the age of humans is about to begin... Amaterasu has once again overwhelmed Ongshin Mumu. Humanity's fortunes are high, and electricity has begun to be widely used in the outside world, even the night can be overcome. Humans are no longer afraid of the dark... Monsters that live in the dark, and can only live in the dark, will inevitably be eliminated."

The sage sighed, a sigh tinged with melancholy, yet also with an indescribable expectation.

"For the youkai, the time has come to make a choice—to be swept into the dust of history, or to seize this opportunity to enter a new chapter and create a completely new path..." Yakumo Yukari turned to Jagi, her long golden hair swaying in a beautiful arc, her gleaming eyes looking at him as if seeking his opinion.

It is no exaggeration to say that the history of the yokai, their future, and their fate and survival are all entirely on the shoulders of the Yokai Sage. If he is not careful, it will truly be the last day of the yokai world.

Even if these great demons who have already reached the "madness level" can escape the catastrophic disaster brought about by the development of the future era, just like the gods of the past, the concept of the extinction of the entire "demon" race will inevitably affect them in the distant future.

Even if their plan succeeds, it will only create a place where monsters can barely survive, and they won't even know how long they can live.

Perhaps before long, some unexpected event will lead to the destruction of Gensokyo, making all his hard work go to waste.

The wheels of time are like waves surging on the sea, like dark clouds about to approach the ground. Every witness and participant will be swept into the terrifying storm and destroyed by it.

Actually… she had another option, the best and easiest option, which was…
—— "Escape"

That's right, Yukari Yakumo is capable of escaping.

Although she couldn't do it at first, she now has that option. She can forever run away to other people's worlds, abandon all responsibilities and missions, and enjoy life.

What kind of sage is she? What kind of monster is she? They're all just titles imposed on her by the outside world. Anyway, as a monster of the realm, she can become stronger just by sleeping, so it doesn't matter where she is.

嗏

When the thought of running away arose in Yakumo Yukari's mind, she immediately dismissed it—at this moment, could it be a joke?
If Jagi can do it, there's no reason why she can't... If she really did that, she'd be laughed at for the rest of her life.

That's absolutely unacceptable, not even if it means death!

"Didn't you already prepare? Just go for it."

Without the slightest hesitation, Jagi stretched out his arm, strong and powerful. This was the same arm that had once injured the Third Prince, Tsukiyo, on the moon. Now it possessed even greater strength than before, a power capable of determining the fate of this era!
"If anything happens, I'll cover for you."

He knew that what Yukari Yakumo needed was nothing more than some trust from others.

And coincidentally, he was the one who completely believed that Yukari Yakumo could do it.

"…it is good."

A relieved smile appeared on the sage's face.

Unbeknownst to anyone, the conversation between just two people in that small room had already determined the course of the entire world.

Yukari Yakumo downed the tea in one gulp, her posture elegant and poised. But as she stood up, her golden hair fluttered behind her, and her folding fan snapped open. An invisible wave of wind began to vibrate the space, with ripples invisible to the naked eye spreading outward from her center.

She waved her hand and gave an order to her shikigami:
"Lan, go prepare the invitations to be sent out—"

"Notify everyone: the Underworld, Hell, the Demon Realm, the Celestial Realm, the Moon Capital, and all the underground monsters, demons, tengu, and even kappa!"

"Next, we're going to host a grand banquet that will sweep the world!"

Sensing the aura emanating from its master, the Nine-Tailed Fox strategist straightened up, bowed slightly, and nodded in response:
"Yes."
