As a traitor, I should raise the banner of rebellion

Lika really didn't suspect anything.

She had never even thought that Mako Jingu would lie to her.

However, she obviously had no interest in the shell. After taking a quick look at it, she looked away with boredom.

Mako Jingu felt very guilty about deceiving Rika.

But this feeling of guilt was replaced by another more intense feeling——

That's curiosity.

The stone bowl of the Indian Buddha, the jade branch from Mount Penglai, the fire rat fur from the Tang Dynasty, the five-colored jade from the dragon head, and the Zi'an shell from the swallow.

These are the five difficult questions Yuanhui sets for suitors.

Mako Jingu originally thought that this was something her father had casually set up, similar to the 'stars in the sky', except that they were slightly easier to obtain.

But looking at the current situation, there seems to be another hidden story?

Speaking of which, her father...

Is it really her father?

Thinking of the scene that just appeared in her mind, Mako Jingu's heart trembled slightly.

In her soul, that illusory shell was shining with silvery-white light.

It seemed to be reminding Jingu Mako not to forget the scene just now...

……

……

Swallow's Zi'anbei is just the beginning.

Since that day, Jingu Mako has received other treasures from Genki one after another.

The second treasure is the jade branch on Mount Penglai.

This is a gift from Prince Chechi.

According to the prince, he went out to sea by boat and drifted on the sea for five hundred days before he found the Penglai Fairy Mountain and broke off this branch from the mountain.

This branch is made entirely of the finest jade, and there are nine huge gems growing on it, just like fruits on the branch.

If you really look at the appearance, this jade branch is magnificent and is truly the work of immortals.

However, Yuan Hui found the craftsman who carved the "Penglai Jade Branch" for Prince Che Chi and proved that it was just a fake he had forged, exposing his lie.

When Jingu Mako touched the cool 'branches', another picture came to her mind -

That's a woman.

A woman whom she clearly didn't know, but who gave her an unusually familiar feeling.

She had waist-length blonde hair as bright as the midday sun, the same fair skin as Saran's mother, and plump breasts that were completely unlike Saran's mother's.

Behind her, three pairs of wings formed by light were slowly spreading out.

And right opposite her was Mako Jingu.

Compared with the first scene, Jingu Mako now looks younger and there is no maternal glow on her face.

On the contrary, at this moment, her face was full of shock and she was looking down at her abdomen.

Because the winged woman stretched out a white hand and inserted it into her belly.

Having said that, there is neither blood nor wounds in the picture.

It was as if her abdomen was not a real human body, but a pool of calm water.

The familiar yet unfamiliar woman had an expression of mixed apology and compassion on her face.

Her mouth was slightly open, as if she was saying something to Mako Jingu in the picture, but the voice did not reach Mako Jingu's ears now.

What did she say?

Why do I feel so genuinely sad and angry when I see this woman?

Who is this woman?

As these questions arose, a beautiful branch shining with a hazy light appeared in Jingu Mako's soul.

It is exactly the same as the previous Zi'anbei.

……

The next three treasures also each contain a picture.

The stone bowl of the Indian Buddha, the fire rat fur from the Tang Dynasty, and the five-colored jade of the dragon head.

Contained in the stone bowl is her image of sitting at the table, deep in thought, with her belly visibly bulging.

There were several thick dictionaries on the table, and on the paper in front of her, there were many names written in beautiful handwriting, but most of them had been crossed out by her.

There are many complicated but nice names among them.

In the end, only two simple words remained -

【Source Glory】.

Yuanhui...

Isn't this dad's name?

Was it me who gave my father his name?

However, in the picture carried by Tang Tu's Fire Rat Fur, other male figures appeared for the first time.

He was a middle-aged man who looked elegant and easy-going, and somewhat similar to her.

But there was not a trace of human warmth in his eyes, only indifference and coldness.

In his arms, he was holding a baby.

Mako Jingu could tell at a glance that this was Genhui.

The baby is in a sound sleep at this moment.

And the self in the picture was kneeling on the ground with his head bowed deeply, as if he was pleading for something humbly.

However, judging by the despair on her face, the self in this picture clearly did not think that she could succeed...

The last treasure is the dragon head jade.

It is said that this is a colorful gem that can only grow on the head of a dragon, but this fake is obviously not the case.

It's just a beautiful piece of colorful jade.

What kind of picture is contained in this treasure?

At this moment, Jingu Mako was curious, but also felt a deep fear.

Although I can only see the pictures but cannot hear the sounds, the four paintings I have now are enough to piece together an absurd and almost complete story.

Yuanhui is not her father, but her son.

The reason why she got pregnant with him was related to the woman who looked somewhat like Sharon.

After she gave birth to Yuanhui, a man who looked a bit like her (probably her direct blood relative) took Yuanhui away from her when she was still a baby...

The question now is, is this story something that has already happened in the past, or is it a prophecy of the future?

Or is this just a lame and ridiculous prank?

Mako Jingu had an extremely certain premonition.

All of this will have a definite answer when she touches this colorful jade.

Mako Jingu stared at this beautiful, colorful gem, and a look of determination flashed in her eyes.

Under Yuanhui's protection, she indeed grew up carefree and lived a happy life.

The past time seems like a dream so beautiful that it is unimaginable, making people unable to help but indulge in it.

But no matter how beautiful the dream is, you still have to wake up eventually.

Even if she opened her eyes to see the devastated reality, that was what she had to face...

An index finger filled with determination quietly pressed on the beautiful and colorful jade, and the next moment, the world stopped breathing.

This is not an adjective, but something that is really happening!

The motionless ash spread out from Mako Jingu's hand and instantly covered the entire world!

Whether it is human or weird.

All things created by 'her' hands fell into absolute silence at this moment.

It looks like a mosquito specimen sealed in amber.

Only two people escaped this terrible scene.

They are Yuan Hui and Saran Bird.

The dragon head jade was not the treasure that Yuanhui asked his servants to deliver.

This was something he handed over to Jingu Mako personally after returning home.

With Mako Jingu's acting skills, there is no problem in deceiving the creation of Tsukuyomi.

But how could Yuanhui and Sharan not notice the abnormality of Jingu Mako?

But even if they discovered it, the two had no choice but to continue doing so.

The plot of "Five Difficulties" is the most classic part of "The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter".

Even if Yuanhui used various methods to change the plot of the story beyond recognition, the core thing remained unchanged——

Kaguya must come into contact with the 'Five Treasures'.

Just like she had to hide inside the bamboo at first.

At this moment, there was no need for him and Sharan to hide anymore.

The two of them opened the paper door and came in front of Mako Jingu.

At this moment, Jingu Mako's eyes had become empty without her noticing, and her body seemed to have escaped the pull of gravity, floating in the air.

Her jet-black hair moved without wind, and behind her, the shadows of five treasures appeared.

As if after a long sleep, and a brief haziness when waking up, the huge will that continuously converges from this world slowly condenses into a huge river between existence and non-existence.

That is the soul of this world!

The entire dream space is contained within its soul, and the wavelength of its soul ripples slowly in this boundless space.

And at this moment, she finally woke up.

Now that the five treasures have been gathered, her will appears in the body of the person she has chosen.

At this moment, [Tsukuyomi] finally arrived!

She is Tsukuyomi, the second of the three noble women, and the goddess of the moon and the night, second only to Amaterasu in Sakurajima mythology!

'Jingu Mako' looked at the two people in front of her.

What she exudes is no longer the innocent and lively girlish aura of the past, but the perfect charm that a woman possesses after growth and experience.

In that fascinating charm, there is also the majesty of the Lord of the World.

In mid-air, she revealed a graceful smile, as if she were sitting on her throne, and declared to the young man in front of her—

“It’s amazing that such a wonderful performance was presented to me.”

Having said that, there was no praise in her tone.

It is more of a kind of "indifference" without any sadness or joy, and looking down from a high position.

It was as if the whole world was roaring together, and the words uttered by the girl's mouth continued to vibrate in the air: "After this reincarnation, I will completely cleanse this soul and turn it into my witch."

Not caring about anyone's reaction, she used this body to declare to the boy who challenged her.

"Son of the witch, if you can change the fate in these last moments -"

Her expression was one of unparalleled pride, and she said as if it were a gift:

"Then I will return your mother to you with both hands."
