Becoming a Demon King from Inuyasha

"Eh...?" Inuyasha's eyes widened for a moment, "Is this the future you see?"

"That's it."

"Sesshomaru..."

Inuyasha was speechless. Seshomaru turned out to be this kind of person. He had never guessed it before.

He looked down on his father for falling in love with a human woman, but in the end, he was the same person.

Moreover, the person he was looking for was a little girl.

Just for what happened today, I can laugh at him for five hundred years.

"Hehe... Why do I feel like Seshomaru was picked up by a little human girl?" Kagome said with a wicked smile.

"You're right, you can say that." Ye Men nodded slightly, "However, Seshomaru at the moment should just be in a momentary mood, and it's far from the level of liking."

"Yeah, I think so too."

Chapter 31 Who is this person? Is he very powerful?

Inside the castle tower in Kasugayama Castle, Echigo.

Hanakaiin Hidemoto (the 13th generation) looked at the two people opposite him helplessly. He never expected that he would be discovered by the shrine maiden beside Nagao Kagetora as soon as he entered the city.

Before he had the chance to recruit talented people, he was invited to the City Lord's Mansion.

The two people opposite, the shrine maiden on the right, is also a pottery figurine like himself, and looks very similar to Kagome Higurashi. If nothing unexpected happens, she should be the first person resurrected by Yuura in this era, and also the shrine maiden Kikyo, the previous life of Kagome Higurashi.

As for the person next to her, although he looks like a man, judging from his outstanding appearance, skin quality, temperament, and lack of Adam's apple, he should also be a woman.

"I wonder what you two want to see me about?"

"Are you from Musashi Province? What's going on there? There have been a lot of rumors these days. Some say the Kanto governor is about to be replaced, and some say the demon hunter is frantically exterminating demons."

"May I know the name of this beautiful lady? My name is Hanakaiin Hidemoto, and I am from the Hanakaiin family in Kyoto."

"Hanakaiin? The royal family's official Onmyoji? You may have misunderstood one thing. I am the lord of this city, Nagao Kagetora, and I am a man."

"..."

I see. The rumor that the Dragon of Echigo, Uesugi Kenshin (Shin), might be a woman turns out to be true.

It is not difficult to understand why they call themselves men to the outside world. After all, this world has never been friendly to women.

"I'm very sorry. I was disrespectful."

"The situation in Musashi Province is complicated. Since Miss Kikyo is here, I have nothing to hide."

"The new Kanto Kanrei was a top-notch monster in his previous life. Although he is a complete human in this life, he still has the power of his previous life in his body."

"He wants to defeat the Hojo family, who are trying to overthrow him. He is currently gathering his forces, and the Hojo family is also actively responding."

"Miss Kikyo should have already told you about his character, right? I won't repeat it."

"Through our Hanakaiin family's identification, we have found that he has a noble character, unlike ordinary monsters. Perhaps he can put an end to this chaotic era."

"I see……"

Nagao Kagetora thought for a long time, then nodded slightly:

"In this era, there are monsters everywhere. Humans alone cannot bring peace to the world."

"Perhaps, you are right. Only people like that can restrain both humans and monsters at the same time, so that they don't have to fight to the death."

"Does the Yamanouchi Uesugi family need my Echigo troops to support them? Although the main family is not strong enough, they are all elite knights. We only need to provide some food and fodder."

Hanakaiin Hidemoto was speechless. It would be in 1548, which is next year, that Nagao Kagetora would inherit the position of family head from his brother Nagao Harukage.

At present, the strength of the Nagao family is divided into two parts and internal strife may break out at any time. In this situation, it is a pity that she still dared to lead her troops away.

Besides, I didn’t say much. Does she trust me so much?

No, this should be attributed to Miss Kikyo.

"Aren't you worried that when you lead your troops to Kanto, Nagao Harukage will lead his troops to attack you?" Hanakaiin Hidemoto couldn't help but ask.

Nagao Kagetora's expression became a little gloomy for a moment, but quickly returned to normal.

"I just want to help my brother manage Echigo Province. I have no idea about power, but my brother has always been worried that I will seize the position of head of the family."

"Because of this, my brother's already poor health has been getting worse."

"I really want to go visit my brother, but he is worried that I might harm him and he is unwilling to see me."

"After returning from suppressing the rebellion last year, my brother has always regarded me as a thorn in his side. In the past year, I have actually been thinking about countermeasures, but I can't think of anything."

"I really want to become a monk and live in seclusion, but I am worried that my brother will not be able to suppress the rebellion in the family."

"Even though I didn't do anything, the situation in Echigo has become polarized, as if a fight could break out at any time."

"If I go to Kanto, maybe my brother will be able to rest assured."

"Besides, I also want to meet the new governor who has such a noble character as you have mentioned."

Hanakaiin Hidemoto remained silent. This is actually quite common.

It happens that mediocre older brothers are jealous of their talented younger brothers, even in ordinary families, let alone in famous families.

Moreover, Nagao Harukage was eighteen years older than his sister, and they were not very close.

Of course, the gender differences between men and women may also be a reason.

After all, in this day and age, most men look down on women.

"Actually, I'm not here to ask for help. We are sure to win this war and don't need reinforcements."

"Moreover, the situation in Echigo will not improve with your departure. Instead, it will drastically deteriorate."

"We have discussed your situation with each other many times. It is actually very easy to reconcile with your brother."

Nagao Kagetora's eyes lit up and he said quickly:

"Please give me some advice, sir!"

"It's normal for Nagao Harukage to worry that you'll take his position as family head. Whether it's out of a brother's jealousy of his sister, a superior's fear of his subordinates, or greed for power, it's perfectly normal."

Hua Kaiyuan Xiuyuan paused and spoke slowly:

"If you want to solve it, you can just leave the Nagao family and acknowledge Echigo guardian Uesugi Sadamasa as your adoptive father."

"It just so happens that Uesugi Sadazane has no son, and is worried that his family name will soon be cut off, and there will be no one to inherit the position of Echigo Shugo. And your brother is worried that you will take away his position as Shugodai, and he is worried and his illness is getting worse."

"The needs of both parties are obvious. One needs someone like you, and the other doesn't need you at all and just wants you to be gone from the family."

“Huh…?”

Nagao Kagetora looked stunned, then began to think seriously.

This seems to be really possible?

If I were to inherit the Echigo Uesugi clan, there would be no conflict with my brother.

However, this approach seems a bit too shameless?

"I am not familiar with the Guardian, I wonder if the Guardian would agree?"

"If you don't mind, I can go and help persuade them. Um... after the matter is done, you don't need to send troops to support, as long as we are allies. In addition, please help me find a few more people."

"No problem, thank you sir."

After seeing off Hanakaiin Hidemoto, Nagao Kagetora breathed a sigh of relief and felt completely relaxed.

Since last year, she has been thinking about how to reconcile with her brother, but she has come up with no solution and can only watch the situation gradually deteriorate.

And now, I finally see hope.

"Ms. Kikyo, what kind of person is the reincarnation of that great demon? What will Kanto become in the future?"

Kikyo hesitated for a moment before speaking:

"He is a good man who could do bad things at any time if he is not watched closely."

"Eh...? This evaluation is quite interesting. It feels like he must be a very powerful person." Nagao Kagetora laughed unconsciously. "The Kanto decisive battle. If we can win, the Kanto region should be able to return to peace, right?"

"Well, has Kagetora ever thought about expanding his territory?"

"No, although it may sound hypocritical to say this, I don't want to kill anyone, nor do I want to see anyone being killed. If possible, I hope everyone can live in harmony."

"We can do it after unifying the world."

"I don't want to do that. If possible, I just want to spend my days doing nothing. Really, why are there so many ambitious people in the world? Can't everyone do their job? If everyone abides by the law, the world would have been peaceful long ago."

Kikyo remained silent. In the past few days, she asked Nagao Kagetora many times in a roundabout way and found that she had no ambition at all and did not look like a daimyo at all.

In this regard, she could only helplessly admit that she might have found the wrong person.

But as a friend, Jinghu is a very nice person.

If possible, Kikyo didn't want to leave like this.

"Hmm... Let's observe for a little longer."

"However, in Musashi Province, he not only obtained the position of Kanto Kanrei, but also snatched away the title of Uesugi Kenshin. Was it just a whim for fun, or did he have other ideas?"

'If he really wants to unify the world and end this war that has lasted for hundreds of years, then that would be great.'

'How serious is he?'

......

In the territory of Musashi Province, near Maple Village, in the residence of the three people of Yemen.

"Greetings, Mr. Kan-ling (X2)."

Yukitaka Sanada and Sukemasa Ota bowed respectfully while secretly observing the scene inside.

There have been rumors flying around Musashi Province these days, saying all sorts of things. I was brought here by force, and before I could come to my senses, I was baptized by a large group of monsters.

Working together with humans and carrying tree trunks and walking on the streets, all kinds of strange monsters look weird no matter how you look at them.

But because of this, both of them are now in a desperate mood.

I am the fish and others are the butchers. Now that things have come to this, I will just take it one step at a time.

"The succession ceremony hasn't started yet, so don't be so serious." Ye Men looked at the two of them and said in a deep voice, "Although this is the first time we meet, I have investigated you for a long time and have a deep understanding of your abilities and character."

"So, let's talk about the appointment first."

"Our family has sufficient money and food, and we are currently preparing to form two mixed armies of humans and monsters to prepare for the upcoming war."

"Unlike other daimyo, our family does not plan to recruit peasant soldiers. The army will be trained off-duty, which means the separation of soldiers and peasants."

"We will discuss the specific matters later. Yukitaka Sanada will be the commander of the First Army, responsible for recruitment, training, command, etc. Ota Sukemasa will be the commander of the Second Army..."

"At the same time, Yukitaka Sanada will serve as the family's military advisor, responsible for making plans. If what you say makes sense, even I can listen to you."

? ?

Yukitaka Sanada looked stunned and was unable to recover for a long time.

After a long while, he finally spoke:

"Does the master trust me too much? Until yesterday, I was still a member of the Takeda family."

"It's okay. I believe you. I'll introduce all of our family's current assets to you later. You can think about it later and decide how to develop our family in a more appropriate way."

"Yes, my lord."

Finding out that Yemen was serious, Yukitaka Sanada no longer hesitated.

To be honest, although he was puzzled as to why the other party trusted him so much, he was more touched.

This is the first time that someone appreciates me so much. Any hesitation would be a disrespect for this trust.

Although the Yamanouchi Uesugi family lacks strength, as the Kanto Kanrei, they have a righteous status.

Moreover, the head of the family is the reincarnation of a great demon with great power. The territory is inhabited by both humans and demons, so the prospects are broad and there is great potential no matter how you look at it.

Seeing this, Ota Sukemasa also quickly expressed his position:

"Since the demise of the Uesugi clan of Ogigayatsu, I have joined the Yamanouchi Uesugi clan. Unfortunately, my prestige is not enough, and I have no say in either the Uesugi clan of Ogigayatsu or the Yamanouchi Uesugi clan."
