The afterlife blew up Gensokyo

"This thing was stolen by Yukari Yakumo from the Lunar Capital. I heard that the Lunar Capital was planning to use it to bomb us, but the plan fell through because of Tsukiyomi's sudden disappearance... Is this little thing very powerful? If you want it, there are plenty of other things out there."

Shi Bai: "..."

...This was the first time in so many years that he was glad he had tied up Tsukiyo.

Indeed, times are changing and the world is progressing. The war between gods and monsters that took place in the previous era almost escalated into a nuclear war in this era...

My lord, times have changed.

Because of this accidental discovery, Shi Bai had to temporarily change his plans and spend a lot of time searching to collect all the dangerous items. After all, if a nuclear bomb were to accidentally explode and trigger a chain reaction, he didn't know if the Monster Mountain would be destroyed, but the number of monsters that could survive on the Monster Mountain was definitely not many.

Throughout this process, a black-haired loli stayed by his side.

Are these things dangerous?

"Danger? It's definitely dangerous. Don't put dangerous things in the house anymore."

After storing the last nuclear warhead in his storage ring, Shi Bai sighed helplessly.

"If you want to research this kind of thing, just tell me directly. Otherwise, I'm afraid that your research will lead you to some weird stuff like the T virus, G virus, or Blacklight virus... Science is something that cannot be taken lightly."

"Science? When did those gods acquire this power called science?"

Hirainbo appeared quite curious.

Since the arrival of this person, although the other party has not actually done anything so far, the black-haired loli has inexplicably felt an extreme sense of security that she had never felt before.

It seems that as long as she can stay by the other person's side, she doesn't need to be afraid of anything, even the end of the world.

"I'll tell you about these things later. Strictly speaking, I still have a lot to ask you, but this isn't the right place to talk..."

Shi Bai reached out and gently pressed his forehead, then turned to look at the black-haired loli beside him.

"By the way, who is in charge of researching these scientific creations here?"

P.S.: Good morning!

Chapter Twenty-Eight: Purple Mother's Love and Hate

Soon, without taking too long, under the guidance of Riluoyuan, Shi Bai met the person in charge of leading the research on these technologies in a rather messy laboratory.

—Not the kappa he imagined who was obsessed with cucumbers, but a girl with flowing purple hair, wearing a white oversized lab coat and a pair of slightly small round glasses.

When he and Riluoyuan arrived at the laboratory, the other person was engrossed in a large pile of glassware on the table, intently dripping something into a test tube with a rubber dropper, and it was unclear what he was busy with.

"Rikako Asakura is a very powerful mage who has mastered many powerful spells and possesses extremely strong abilities. However, she dislikes using magic and instead admires researching these... sciences."

After glancing at the haphazardly arranged items in the laboratory, Riluoyuan began to quietly explain them to Shibai.

"Although she is very strong, she is an absolute oddball. Originally, she planned to go to the Moon Capital because that's where she could find what she wanted, but she was rejected and insulted by those arrogant Lunarians. So, in a fit of anger, she chose to defect to our side after destroying several of their warships."

"Rikako Asakura? Uh..."

Before Shi Bai could finish his sentence, he saw the bespectacled girl, who had been hiding in front of the lab table, suddenly grab a protective helmet from the side, put it on, and then skillfully crawl under the table.

"boom--!!!"

The next second, the violently boiling test tube suddenly exploded.

Shi Bai: "..."

He suddenly seemed to understand where the mess in the laboratory came from.

"Because it's dangerous here, the kappa and tengu usually don't come here for safety reasons... Can't you stop doing this every time? The welcoming ceremony doesn't have to be so extravagant, does it?"

Waving his hand to deflect the shards of glass flying towards him, and watching Asakura Rikako alertly peek her head out from under the table, Hiragin Hana's words carried a hint of helplessness.

"With your level of magic, stopping an explosion of this magnitude should be a piece of cake, right? Is it really necessary to hide under the table every time?"

"Hmph, what do you know? This is the power of science. How could I use the power of magic to desecrate science?"

Taking off her protective helmet and placing it aside, Rikako Asakura adjusted her glasses with one hand and looked at Shibai next to Hirain Hanako, a hint of curiosity clearly showing in her eyes.

"Is this the fiancé you mentioned?"

"fiancé……"

Turning his head to look at the black-haired girl beside him, Shi Bai's lips twitched slightly.

As the highest leader of the Tengu clan, Tenma has three forms: the girl form she appears in front of everyone, the senior Inuzoki Kaba who she usually disguises herself as, and the black-haired loli form that she rarely shows to others.

Facing Rikako Asakura, Hirain Ban's current form is naturally the demon form he presents to the outside world.

"What? Isn't that right? Or are you trying to shirk responsibility!?"

With a slightly flushed face, she glared at him, looking fierce.

"Um... I wanted to say you look beautiful today."

Shi Bai nodded seriously.

"Hmph, sweet talk..."

Turning her head away so that Shi Bai couldn't see the expression on her face, Ri Luoyuan snorted softly.

"Hello, I am an ordinary scientist. You can call me Asakura."

Walking past the already chaotic experimental area, Rikako Asakura extended her hand to Tokishiro with great enthusiasm, a polite smile now appearing on her face.

"I've heard that you have a deep understanding of the power of science. It's a pleasure to meet you."

"Uh... what's wrong with her?"

Seeing Asakura Rikako suddenly become very enthusiastic in front of him, Shi Bai couldn't help but feel a little confused.

"What else could it be? He's feeling guilty!"

Hirain Ban pouted unhappily.

"She used the shameful excuse of scientific research to dismantle the refrigerator you gave Hua. If I hadn't been careful, the headphones you gave me would have suffered the same fate. Despite possessing such powerful magic, she hates magic and instead pursues science..."

"Well... although I was wrong about that, didn't I reassemble it later?"

Having clearly heard what Hirain Hana said, Asakura Rikako seemed a little less confident.

"Now that it's already installed, then..."

"You did reassemble the refrigerator, but tell me, why are there so many extra parts next to it after you reassembled it?"

With his arms crossed, Hirain Hana had a cold smile on his face.

"That refrigerator was originally meant for cooling and insulation, but after all this messing around with it, it's become a firebox radiating a lot of heat. Is this what you mean by 'assembled'?"

"But! But! It looks exactly the same, right!?"

"You can continue to argue, but every word you say can be used as evidence in court. Or are you saying you dare to do it but not dare to admit it?"

"Woo..."

A voice of resentment escaped from Rikako Asakura's lips.

Shi Bai: "..."

The Mountain of Yokai seems to be even more interesting than I imagined?

From that day on, Shi Bai settled down at Monster Mountain, because there were some things happening there that he needed to resolve.

He knew very well what Saigyoku, Soul Youki, and Mori Chika Rinnosuke were doing. Just as he had told Shinki before, the simplest and quickest way to obtain the [Origin of the World] was through mass killing.

All living beings belong to the world. The killings caused by beings belonging to this world are permitted by the world itself. However, the killings caused by beings from other worlds are equivalent to plundering the world's origin and will be abhorred and expelled by the world.

Strictly speaking, Shi Bai does not belong to this world, so he has always been controlling himself to avoid causing unnecessary bloodshed. However, even if he did something heinous, the world itself would have no way to deal with him in the present.

The [Origin of the World] is essentially an all-powerful, side-effect-free super wish-granting machine. Whether it's fulfilling wishes, enhancing one's own power, or strengthening the world itself, its effects are limitless.

What Saigyou and his companions are doing now is obtaining the source through massive killing. However, they also have their own bottom line, sparing those kind and not inherently evil youkai. Otherwise, when Haku returned here, there would basically be no youkai left in Gensokyo.

The power of [Death Mourning] is unsolvable. There are only two options: passing the judgment and declaring death, or failing the judgment and being allowed to live. It is exceptionally straightforward and brutal. In the entire world, only the people of Hourai, like Kaguya of Houraisan, can resist this power.

One can only imagine what kind of scene it would be when the three monks, possessing such terrifying power, stepped into the war between the demons and the Moon Capital.

They single-handedly brought this war, which had been raging for hundreds of years, to a complete halt... This is the power that comes with absolute strength.

Once power reaches a certain level, any conspiracy or trickery will become a joke.

In this matter, Shi Bai didn't get too involved, and didn't even show his face. He just silently watched from the sidelines using the information network of the Monster Mountain.

Although Saigyou and his two companions left Gensokyo, the Saigyouji family still resides within Gensokyo. Even though the three strongest members have left, the Saigyouji family still has a large number of followers.

These followers were almost all powerful figures among exorcists, monks, and onmyoji. They firmly believed that under the leadership of Saigyou-sensei, the Saigyouji family would forever eliminate the threat of yokai to humanity.

The Saigyouji family has officially replaced the Hieda family as the most powerful force in Gensokyo. The complete martial law on Youkai Mountain is not only to guard against the increasingly arrogant and audacious followers of the Saigyouji family, but also to keep an eye on Saigyou Hoshi and his group.

Powerful strength can lead one astray, and without a mind commensurate with that power, one will gradually descend into depravity. Saigyou, Youki, and Rinnosuke possess resilient minds, but the followers of the Saigyouji family are clearly a mixed bag.

They became arrogant and audacious enough to openly trespass into the territory of the Monster Mountain, harassing and teasing the beautiful monsters who had hidden there and the patrolling tengu. Faced with this blatant provocation, the Monster Mountain could only tolerate it.

It was obvious that if they dared to harm those humans, then the day Saigyoku and his companions returned from their travels would be the day the Demon Mountain perished. Saigyoku and his two companions would show absolutely no mercy to those demons who harmed humans.

Thus, the positions of humans and yokai began to reverse. In Gensokyo, where the Saigyouji family existed, yokai became the weaker party, which is quite ironic.

Then, under these circumstances, another major event quietly occurred.

Ordinary monsters, including Hiragain and the others, could hold their tempers, but for a certain being, whether she wanted to or not, she had to make a choice.

The Youkai Sage - Yakumo Yukari.

Other yokai, including Hirain Hana, a tengu clan demon, and Ibuki Suika, a demon king among the oni clan, could choose to retreat, but Yakumo Yukari, the yokai sage, could not.

If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight. As a sage of demons, she must do what is required of a sage of demons in this situation.

In a sense, Yukari Yakumo had no other choice.

On an ordinary, cool summer day, the sage youkai Yakumo Yukari launched an attack on Saigyo, a monk, and his companions who were clearing out evil youkai along the way.

After learning this news, Shi Bai could already guess what the final result would be. Unless Yakumo Yukari also consumed the Penglai Elixir and became a Penglai person, she would have no chance of winning.

As she had predicted, the attack ended with the sage Yakumo Yukari escaping severely injured. However, the series of shocks it caused were only just beginning.

"He's not dead? I thought that guy couldn't escape..."

Upon learning the final result, Hiragin Hana curled her lip. Because of Yakumo Yukari's opportunistic behavior when the Youkai Mountain was engulfed in war, she harbored absolutely no goodwill towards her.

Do you think she will change after experiencing something like this?

Leaning against the trunk of a maple tree by the pond, Shi Bai gazed at the distant scenery.

"How could that be? Based on my understanding of her, there's no way she could have changed at all."

Nichirain Bō looked on with disdain.

"Don't be fooled by her. That guy runs faster than anyone else when he's in danger. Why would he run to his death knowing the difference in strength between the two sides? This is obviously a ruse she put on."

So where do you think she is now?

Shi Bai turned his head to look at the other person.

"Even if it's a ruse, she's definitely seriously injured now. Under these circumstances, where do you think she's most likely to go?"

"Based on my understanding of her behavior patterns, it would be quite simple to know where she is now. Others would think that she would choose to retreat and heal after such a serious injury, but I think she will continue her actions instead."

Although his words still carried a hint of disdain, Hiragin's expression clearly became serious.

"Humans are different from us demons. We demons rarely have attachments or families, but humans are different. Although that Saigyou monk is indeed terrifyingly strong, he also has very obvious weaknesses."

"That's his only daughter, the eldest daughter of the Saigyouji family, Saigyouji Yuyuko!!"

P.S.: Good morning!

Chapter Twenty-Nine: Anything that's alive... I'll eat it for you!

When there is only light, light is darkness.

Due to the massive purge that Saigyou had previously instigated in Gensokyo, almost all the youkai in the area were wiped out, except for Youkai Mountain, which was spared. Humans, led by the Saigyouji family, have completely become the masters of this place.

No one is unafraid of death, and youkai are no exception. Under these circumstances, human power has almost reached its peak in Gensokyo. Youkai have to give way to humans, and even the tengu patrolling the Youkai Mountain have to avoid them. Under these circumstances, the deepest evil thoughts in some people's hearts burst forth uncontrollably.
