Ruoye Mu glanced at her again, but didn't say anything.
They walked through the familiar streets again, but this time, after reaching the street where the usual tram stop was, Nanon Ugetsu led everyone in a different direction.
"So this is it."
Nagasaki Motoyo and Toyokawa Shoko looked around.
Toyokawa Shoko had just been in this area yesterday. Although she didn't visit Takamatsu Akari's house, she had some impression of the surrounding area.
Nagasaki Motoyo had never been here after school before, and this was the first time she had walked near this street. She looked around curiously for a moment.
"So it turns out that Deng lives nearby."
She thought to herself.
Now that the scope had been determined, the Word of Power 'Bloodline Binding' was quietly activated in the next instant.
As time went on, Motoyo Nagasaki discovered that her 'perspective' had changed somewhat.
That was the night I decided to join the band.
That night, lying in bed, she recalled the details of her day.
Today, as a member of the wind band, playing the double bass, she stood on the stage of the school auditorium for the first time.
Moreover, her performance was outstanding. Not only did many students in the audience notice her performance, but even the head of the wind band and her instructor praised her.
Originally, Motoyo Nagasaki really wanted to share her joy of performing at the music festival with her mother.
But tonight, her mother had to work overtime again because of a company project, and she was alone at home again.
Nagasaki Motoyo rolled over in bed.
The memories are still churning, pushing back to the time when Toyokawa Shoko invited her to join the band.
This was the first time she had received such an invitation.
She stared at the girl with golden eyes in front of her and felt a strange sense of calling.
So she agreed to join the band.
Nagasaki Motoyo recalled,
Beside him at the time were the new transfer student, Ugetsu Nagumo, and the daughter of two famous Japanese entertainment stars—Mutsumi Wakaba.
At that time, the 'world' I saw seemed no different from usual.
But as the memory progressed to the end, when the four people stood together under the lights of the hall, forming a shape similar to an arc, her 'vision' suddenly changed.
A tree appeared in front of me.
It stood there silently, reaching to the sky and reaching to the earth, its branches extending in all directions, its thick trunk piercing the clouds, and higher up, the endless shadows of its leaves swayed in the sky, as if covering the entire world.
However, the tree's branches were covered with deep cracks, as if they had been gouged out by a sharp object.
Its thick roots protrude from the ground, some of which have been violently torn off, their broken ends charred and curled, as if scorched by a raging fire, leaving the entire land scarred and devastated.
at this time,
A sudden, overwhelming sadness enveloped her from all sides.
It was a pure and profound mourning, like watching something of utmost importance slowly die, and feeling utterly powerless to stop it.
The next second, the world completely collapsed.
All the colors spread out like ink wash, and the World Tree transformed into thousands of rays of light, passing through her body and then dissipating from behind.
Motoyo Nagasaki's 'worldview' suddenly shut down, and she returned to reality.
The shock she felt was almost indescribable.
A sentence kept echoing in my mind—
"Blue blossoms on the branches lead to the cause and effect of the giant tree."
This is... a quote from Abe no Seimei.
Abe no Seimei was the most famous Onmyōji (yin-yang master) in Japanese history. It is said that he was knowledgeable about Yin and Yang and could even communicate with the gods.
Once, because her parents argued frequently, Nagasaki Motoyo even learned some divination techniques in an attempt to predict whether they would divorce.
Although the divination was inaccurate and they eventually divorced, Nagasaki Motoyo clearly remembered seeing this sentence in Abe no Seimei's writings.
“Bloodline Jieluo…” she murmured the name.
Previously, when the 'vision' was activated, Nagasaki Motoyo had also heard something say those four words.
But it wasn't until she saw the 'World Tree' that she realized 'Bloodline Knot' referred to herself.
Nagasaki Motoyo composed herself.
Now that we know the effects of this ability, which seems to be called 'Bloodline Chain'.
And now, it's time for her to meet the new members for the first time.
So, Nagasaki Motoyo curiously activated her 'vision' and looked towards the residential building in front of her.
Chapter 85 Crychic, Assembled! (Part 1) (8k)
Nagasaki Motoyo's thoughts were in turmoil.
It seems that everyone in the band has their own hidden secrets.
Whether it's Toyokawa Shoko, Wakaba Mutsu, or Nagumo Ugetsu.
For example, the person who invited me to join the band, Toyokawa, must be someone whose presence was strangely watching me.
As for Mutsumi Wakaba, who is in the same class as Shoko Toyokawa, although she is the daughter of comedian Takafumi Wakaba and A-list actress Minami Mori, she doesn't seem to be as outgoing and sociable as other children from celebrity families. Instead, she is rather quiet and reserved.
As for Nan Yun Yu Yue, she found him even more unfathomable.
As a transfer student from Kamogawa Central Middle School, he quickly became familiar with his classmates shortly after enrolling.
I had already sensed something unusual about him when I delivered the book to him before.
The magnificent red line she had never seen before gave her no less shock than when she first saw the 'vision' open.
When Nagasaki Motoyo agreed to form a band with Toyokawa Shoko, she discovered something hidden—
Both Wakaba Mutsu and Toyokawa Shoko seemed to trust him very much.
Especially when listening to Toyokawa talk about the formation of the band, Wakaba Mutsu would often look into Nagumo Ugetsu's eyes, as if seeking his opinion.
These two individuals already possessed many secrets, and someone who could command such trust from both of them could not possibly be an ordinary person.
And now... the band is about to welcome a new member she has never met before, which undoubtedly makes her extremely curious.
Since each of the original three members of the band was hiding something,
So this new member, who was personally invited by Ugetsu Nagumo and praised for his creative talent by Shoko Toyokawa, must be extraordinary.
But... just how extraordinary is it?
Nagasaki Motoyo has opened her own 'vision', which she calls 'Bloodline Yura'.
Let the 'world' tell you the answer.
She thought to herself, her gaze falling on the residential building in front of her.
Nagasaki Motoyo scanned the area from bottom to top and found no red lines on the ground floors of the surrounding residential buildings; everything appeared calm.
But not long after... as her gaze gradually moved upward, the scene before her suddenly changed.
Swah——
A burst of red light suddenly exploded in front of Nagasaki Motoyo.
The red light was not like the 'red lines' she had seen on others; initially, it was just a small red dot on the middle floor.
But when her senses focused on it, the red light suddenly expanded and spread, instantly covering her entire 'field of vision'.
Nagasaki Motoyo gasped in surprise.
"what."
She suddenly felt a sharp pain in her abdomen, as if the red dot was impacting her through her 'vision'.
A strange feeling rose in her heart:
"Did I see something I shouldn't have seen?"
Just as Nagasaki Motoyo was starting to panic,
Suddenly, a sense of silence enveloped them.
This feeling... is like ripples, layer upon layer, like the tide, gradually washing away the red light before my eyes.
At the same time, the physical pain disappeared instantly, as if everything just now was an illusion.
This is……
Nagasaki Motoyo was startled.
She subconsciously looked around and found Nan Yun Yuyue looking at her, seemingly noticing her 'ah' sound just now.
"it's okay no problem."
Nagasaki Motoyo smiled.
"I think I stepped on something by accident, but it's nothing serious."
"It's good that you're alright," Nan Yun Yuyue said.
Although they said that, in reality, the 'discipline' had already been quietly activated the moment they stepped into the community.
Since Gao Songdeng will soon be meeting the other members of the band for the first time, it's always good to activate the 'discipline' beforehand.
Unexpectedly, just as the 'Discipline' was activated, it discovered that Nagasaki Motoyo beside it was activating her Word of Power. Moreover, at the same time, the 'Vision' seemed to have seen something, and a sense of impact was coming towards this direction.
?
Nan Yun Yu Yue was surprised.
The sensation was similar to a targeted shockwave, impacting in a single direction. If it weren't the target, no one would notice anything amiss; however, from the perspective of "Discipline," everything was crystal clear.
Then, in the next instant, the 'precepts' swept over directly, slowly dissolving the ripples completely.
Furthermore, he conveniently shut down Nagasaki Motoyo's 'vision' to prevent her from suffering further harm.
What... is going on?
Nanyun Yuyue's thoughts drifted.
He looked at Nagasaki Motoyo next to him. Nagasaki Motoyo had just covered her abdomen, but now she looked completely normal, and her hands were naturally placed beside her.
Could it be that they saw something?
Nanyun Yuyue looked up.
Led by him, the group had entered the residential area and were heading towards Gao Songdeng's building.
Could it be... Takamatsu Tomaru?
Nan Yun Yuyue speculated, somewhat surprised.
However... a girl who can forge the Philosopher's Stone must be no ordinary person.
In addition, Nagasaki Motoyo's Word of Power is of the detection type, which may be why she was affected by something.
Could it be... that Takamatsu is refining the Philosopher's Stone?
Tapping.
As he pondered, his steps never faltered, and the group soon arrived at the foot of Gao Songdeng's building.
"This is it."
Nan Yun Yu Yue looked up.
"Should I call her?"
Upstairs in the apartment building, the curtains were still drawn on the windows of Gao Songdeng's home.
"However... shouting in the community might disturb other residents."
"I'll go upstairs and call her."
