I'll kill you after I finish this game!

These words contain truth and an undeniable principle, a principle that is extremely important to the Night Journey of Matara.

As the other party said, they really care about their background and feel that they have no self-will.

I feel panicked and angry about this, but it is precisely this anger that obscures the truth that cannot be ignored.

Yes, can dolls get angry and rebel?

No, even if a puppet has feelings of anger, it might still be controllable, but no one can say that it has no will of its own.

It is undeniable that Modoro Nightwalker would feel dissatisfied and angry because the person in front of him said that he was just a tool to achieve his goals.

"...Been taught a lesson."

After taking a deep breath, Modoro bowed to the being before him, then, recalling the events of the fourth day, said with a hint of self-mockery:

"Ah, that's true. I do have a self. Genius? Strongest? In the Fourth Heaven Era, to become the protagonist, one must first become a plaything of the gods."

The existence of the extraordinary on the fourth day is tragic. Modora does not feel that he is tragic because he has not yet discovered his own tragedy.

Now I've realized it, and at the same time, I've come to terms with it somewhat.

All his pride and self-esteem came from God's charity and grace.

Am I who I am? That much is certain. Only my will is truly mine; everything else is probably a seed given to me by God.

However, after Modoro Nightwalker uttered those words, Reiji's expression became somewhat strange, and then he said with a hint of a smile:

"You're wrong about one thing, Enma. You're not my plaything, you're just a catalyst."

"...What's the meaning?"

Modoro's heart, which had just calmed down during his nighttime journey, began to tremble again. He could detect a hint of amusement and schadenfreude in the other person's words, which were tinged with amusement.

You are not my plaything, merely a catalyst... What does that even mean?!

Isn't using him as a tool to achieve one's goals considered manipulating him?

"I only planted a seed; I did not create the setting of Motara Night Walker as the strongest Yin-Yang Master in China."

Lei Zhe sat up cross-legged in mid-air, facing Modoro Nightwalker in front of him, and chuckled as he revealed a truth that shook the other's soul.

"What!?"

Upon hearing this, Modoro Yexing stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

Countless viewers were also puzzled, not understanding what this mysterious entity meant.

It has been confirmed that the other party is the creator of the Night Walkers, and the other party readily admitted that he created the Night Walkers to achieve his purpose.

However... it's incredibly contradictory that the being who created the Night Walker, Matara, denied creating the other.

And on this point, the genius Modoro Nightwalker understood best what the other party meant.

This means that someone provided protection (setting) to you before the other person did.

The real person, Modoro the Night Walker, was created by another being.

"I don't really care how the seed is born. Your body in your past and present lives wasn't born naturally either. And... you don't have any memories of anything before the age of ten, do you?"

The other party's words made Modoro Nightwalker's eyes waver and his body stiffen.

After all, if you don't care about your origins, no matter how outstanding you are, your reality is empty, a castle in the air without any foundation.

In other words, if you don't understand this, you'll always just be a toy.

Moreover, what the other party said was indeed true; he... whether in his past life or this life, had no memory of anything before the age of ten.

I've always found it strange, but I couldn't find the root of the question, so I could only keep it buried in my heart forever.

But now that it has been brought up by his own father, the Creator, he can no longer subconsciously ignore it.

So, if the one who planted the seed was Father, then who was the one who created the entity of Motara Night Walk?!

No need to say more, no need to elaborate.

"——————!"

Motara Night Walker knew there was someone who best matched him, someone who admired Motara Night Walker's figure, whether in a past life or this one.

Motara Night Walker is the number one Yin-Yang Master in China, a genius, and the strongest!

Who is this person who speaks so frankly, who never leaves even when pushed away or treated like a toy, and who continues to worship Matara Night Walker?

Who is the person who, whether in their past life or this life, wishes to be the strongest and most omnipotent being in the world?

'Lord Nightwalker......'

It was as if the voice of Yumen Ryusui, young and full of respectful laughter, echoed in my ears again, and I could almost see the other person's smiling, youthful face.

Yumen Longshui...Motara Yexing, the two were betrothed since childhood.

Tsuchimikado Ryusui...Night Journey on the Sanzu River, the two are childhood sweethearts who grew up together.

The connection... is so profound, it seems like it can't be severed.

"...You mean...I'm a toy...made by the dragon water?"

"The only person I can think of besides Mikado Ryusui," said Modoro Yoru, his voice trembling.

Why would they do this? Besides this question, is the Night Walk of the Magatara a being distorted by Ryusui Mikado...?

To this question, Lei Zhe's answer remained undisguised, stating it casually:

"Swords, mirages, calamities, and the ability to manipulate the future one desires—I remember bestowing such 'gifts' upon everyone. There was no such thing as 'death,' since it overlaps with Karl's 'Libra.'"

Yes, they do overlap, or you could say they're redundant.

The final transformation in the Asura realm is the manifestation of death, a high-density condensation of death mass.

And what is the Night Journey of Matara? Is it Yama, the judge of life and death?

In terms of the arrangement and allocation of actors, it can be said to be quite superfluous.

For Razer, the existence of the Night Journey of the Modoro is like a seed that yields two kinds of fruit.

It is an existence bound to the existence of Yumen Ryusui, or it can be said to be an existence derived from it.

"Manipulating...the future I desire, a power akin to granting wishes...this is the power of Dragon Water, it is this power that allows me..."

Did they create a being called Modoro no Yasukuni? His lips trembled, unable to utter the words.

It's so absurd, so twisted.

But it is a truth that cannot be refuted and for which no flaws can be found.

It is precisely this desire, the purest desire, that makes the desired future come true—a simple, easy-to-understand power that brings wishes to fruition.

One's ideal path will become clear, and cause and effect will be corrected.

Without any particular shape, a child's delusions are themselves a kind of distortion, a supernatural power.

Fate and misfortune can be subconsciously transformed into happiness, secretly undergoing a process of improvement; this is the essence of Yumen Ryusui's extraordinary ability.

The evidence is that Modara Yagyō had no memories of the time before he met Mikado Ryūsui, which means he had no memories of his life before he was ten years old.

Is the Creator... or rather, Father, toying with Matara's Night Journey?

No, that's ridiculous. The other party probably doesn't even know who Modoro Nightwalker is, and didn't specifically create this character or this existence.

To the other party, the Night Journey of the Motora was a tool, not a toy, which is why they had already rejected it.

The existence of the Night Journey of Matara, which can truly be considered a toy, is not the origin of the Night Journey of Matara!

The result deduced from the facts was something so ridiculous that it made Modoro dizzy.

His extraordinary talent, comparable to that of the heavens, from his past and present lives, was a product of what others had prepared beforehand.

This is himself, the being known as Modoro the Night Walker.

What we call arrogance, to put it nicely, may have been set up this way from the very beginning?

No questions allowed, always under someone's interference.

The most talented and powerful Onmyoji... the truth and reality are actually like this.

"I...I was actually born from a girl's fantasy!?"

"Yes, in the human world, which is Japan, there is a concept called shikigami, right? And in other places, there is a concept called familiar."

To the trembling Modoro Yako before him, whose heart and body were shaking uncontrollably, Reiji casually stated the true relationship between the other party and Tsuchimikado Ryusui.

[Shikigami]

The vocabulary and concept can be used to describe the relationship between Tsuchimikado Ryusui and Matara's Night Journey.

That refers to the spirits commanded by an Onmyoji, whose power is related to the Onmyoji who is controlling them.

Some shikigami can turn against their masters. The concept of shikigami was first created in Japan by the onmyoji Abe no Seimei.

Inherited by the Tsuchimikado family, direct descendants of Abe no Seimei, it became an important part of Tsuchimikado Shinto during the Edo period and was highly regarded by the Tokugawa Shogunate.

However, among the countless viewers watching, there are also quite a few people who are Onmyoji or magicians.

Their expressions were incredibly strange at that moment, after all... what kind of shikigami/familiar could directly become a god?!

Moreover, it's a ridiculously powerful godhood like the God of Death Seekers!

They really want such an awesome shikigami/familiar!!!

"Hmm~~ By the way, speaking of which, I just revived you, so... you've officially become my 'shikigami (divine child)' now."

At this moment, as if he had thought of something, Razer said to the stiff and motionless Modoro Nightwalker in a helpless and bored tone, as if reminding him, "But I have no interest in toying with you. Do you need me to pass this 'connection' on to that little girl?"

He genuinely had no interest or motivation to manipulate this Seeking God. The Mercury Serpent and his own intuition were the directors behind the scenes in the mortal world, so he didn't need to worry about that here.

However, Lei Zhe's straightforward words, which were not meant to be malicious, really provoked the fragile and wavering Yama Yama Ten at this moment, and intense emotional fluctuations overflowed from his body.

"You bastard! Aa ...

His initial composure completely crumbled, his "Dao Heart" of the Night Journey collapsed entirely, and his unstable spirit erupted, revealing madness in his hysterical roar.

What is he angry about, and whom does he hate?

Before him stood his own creator? The one who shaped him, the Imperial Dragon Water?

Perhaps both are true, or perhaps no one can feel resentment. But in any case, a shaken and collapsing heart needs to release its inner turmoil and chaos.

Modora had never been so frenzied and furious. His handsome and elegant face had turned into that of a beast, and he was unleashing the power of death as he roared with bared teeth.
