Becoming a Demon King from Inuyasha

Kagome nodded slightly and turned to talk about her own situation:

"The Water God and Kagetora just went to the heaven together. About five or six minutes ago?"

"Bishamonten's condition is a bit bad. I don't know what to do. I can only watch from the side."

As he spoke, Bishamonten suddenly screamed.

"What's wrong? Has the situation worsened?" Kagome quickly looked at the two sacred artifacts she was watching over.

"No, the removal ceremony in the heavens should have already begun."

So fast?

Yes, saving lives is like putting out a fire.

"What do we need to do here?"

"You don't have to do anything. To be honest, Bishamonten-sama doesn't have much fighting ability at the moment. We just need to protect her."

"That's good."

Kagome breathed a sigh of relief. Edo Castle was highly defended and had many monsters. Onmyojis, led by the Hanakaiin family, also gathered here. Basically, no enemy dared to come here to cause trouble.

……

In Takamagahara, inside Bishamonten's residence.

Bishamonten has many sacred instruments, and the purification ritual that requires three of them is not difficult. The only difficulty lies in finding the fallen person.

However, although it was easy to find the target, the effect of the purification ceremony was far less than expected.

Looking at the girl who was wailing in pain within the barrier but showing no remorse, Zhao Ma gritted his teeth and made up his mind.

"Your Highness Kagetora, please kill her. We will lend you a hand and I will take the responsibility."

Nagao Kagetora hesitated for a moment, then turned his gaze to the girl who was wailing inside the barrier, and asked softly:

"Can you tell me what you hate?"

"It hurts! It hurts so much!! The flames, the bandits, my parents were all killed, and my clothes were stripped off. It's useless to cry and scream. It hurts so much, it really hurts!"

"I see. I already know your hatred."

Nagao Kagetora took a deep breath. The girl in front of him was just a pitiful person in the troubled times, and she had done nothing wrong.

She accidentally recalled her past life memories, and could not let them go, thus causing the main god to suffer, so she had no choice but to be killed.

"You have done nothing wrong. If Lord Bishamonten is still here, he may wait until you turn back or completely turn into a demon."

"However, I am not Lord Bishamonten, so I will bury you next. Please do not hate Lord Bishamonten."

"The one who killed you is me, Nagao Kagetora."

The next moment, many divine artifacts beside him instantly turned into accessories and weapons and automatically flew to Nagao Kagetora.

As a result, Nagao Kagetora also gained the ability to temporarily cut off souls.

With one slash of the sword, the girl within the barrier disappeared.

……

They all breathed a sigh of relief when they discovered that the corruption on Bishamonten's body was gradually fading away and he soon returned to normal.

On the contrary, Bishamonten himself remained silent.

It was not until the three water gods came back that he spoke:

"How is your family now?"

"I'm sorry, this is all my fault."

Zhao Ma suddenly knelt down and said solemnly:

"Reima recalled her memories of her life. She was brutally murdered by bandits. She could not get over it no matter what. I asked His Highness Nagao to kill her."

Upon hearing this, Bishamonten did not respond, but just walked out without saying a word.

Zhao Ma quickly stood up and waited until she walked some distance before he followed her from a distance.

Seeing this, the water god looked around, then shifted his gaze to the celestial maiden who was standing blankly in the courtyard. He walked over and waved his hand in front of her eyes twice.

"Is the goddess still alive? She feels like an empty shell, but also like there's still a little bit of soul left."

Yato glanced in the direction of Bishamonten who had already left, and then said:

"In my opinion, her soul is like a newborn baby and needs to grow up slowly."

"Isn't it more accurate to describe it as a generational change?"

"I've heard of generational changes, but I've never actually seen one. After a generational change, the body should grow rapidly like a normal child, but her body is in adult form from the start."

"That's true. Isn't this a dangerous situation?"

Thinking of the crisis caused by the mismatch between soul and body, the Water God pondered for a few seconds and turned his gaze to Ye Men:

"How did you arrange it?"

"I plan to let Granny Feng take care of her."

"Older women should be fine, but they must be watched carefully and not allowed to get close to any men."

"Well, I'll arrange two more women as guards."

"Have you told Feng yet?"

"No, I'm on my way there."

"In that case, let's go together."

A celestial maiden like this probably won't be able to take good care of the Heavenly Feather Robe, so I'll keep it for a while.

……

"What are you...?"

Looking at the copper coins brought in by the patrol guards, Grandma Feng was stunned and looked up at the people from Yemen unconsciously.

"We hope you can help take care of Kaguya-sama." After the guards left, Yemen quickly introduced the situation of the goddess, "... She will be in your care from now on."

"Kaguya-sama? The one from The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter?"

Grandma Kaede naturally also knew about The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter, and for a moment she couldn't help but compare Kaguya's appearance with her own sister in her mind.

They are equally good-looking, but their temperaments are clearly different.

It is unclear what Kaguya looked like when she had her memories, but the girl in front of me looked dazed and it seemed like she couldn't even speak.

"why me?"

"Because there is no other more suitable candidate."

Ye Men paused and said again:

"I don't mind having her stay by my side. Her body is a divine body and doesn't need to eat or excrete. It's very convenient."

"It's just that taking care of a child is too much trouble. I really don't have the energy for it."

This is true.

Granny Feng thought unconsciously:

I'm afraid even this man himself doesn't believe he can control himself?

After all, the thought of a peerless beauty who can be manipulated at will, with a mind not even as good as that of a child, is outrageous.

"If this child grows up a few more years, will the Tale of the Bamboo Cutter be shown in reality?"

Oh no, I’ve become a supporting character in The Tale of the Takenori.

"Everyone has read The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter. In reality, there shouldn't be people who overestimate their abilities. I will arrange two guards, and you only need to be responsible for teaching."

"Okay, then... leave it to me."

I am old, but Sister Kikyo is still young.

After I die in the future, Sister Kikyo will definitely be very lonely, so it would be a good idea to find a companion for her.

……

Chasing Naraku's aura and running to the top of the mountain, Inuyasha sighed helplessly as he looked at the traces of battle around him:

"Why are you late again?"

"No, running is too slow. I must find a flying mount."

"If we continue like this, when will we be able to kill Naraku?"

Chapter 82: Do you only care about my body?

In the afternoon, a banquet was held in Edo Castle to see Bishamonten off and to welcome Nagao Kagetora.

The banquet lasted until dusk before it was declared over.

For the next two days, Yemon and others accompanied Nagao Kagetora on a stroll around Edo Castle.

"After two days of observation, I have truly realized that this may be the landmark of the new era."

"The monsters are incredibly powerful and numerous, but they are difficult to control. Most of them are just a loose group of sand."

"Compared to monsters, humans have advantages in terms of wisdom and heritage, but their lifespan is short. Even if a powerful wizard becomes famous for a while, it will be difficult for him to last long."

"It is naturally undesirable to unify the human kingdom and lead the army to exterminate the demon race."

"Therefore, if we want this world to be truly stable, we must restrain both sides with powerful force and strict laws."

"Only by treating humans and monsters equally can we resolve the differences between the two sides."

"In time, monster children and human children will play together, the elders will have no grudges, the two sides will intermarry, and there will be no prejudice against half-demons."

"Only a country like that can be called a paradise on earth."

"Sir Kanrei has done a good job. From now on, I will lead the entire Echigo Province and keep in line with Edo. Just summon me when you need troops."

Ye Men naturally understood what Nagao Kagetora meant, nodded slightly, and said with a smile:

"Then let's create a new era together."

As they were talking, some figures gradually appeared at the end of the horizon.

Soon, the army led by Dong Lan slowly marched towards them in uniform steps.

Noticing Ye Men and others chatting on the construction site outside the city, Dong Lan rushed over immediately.

"Lord Yamon, thanks to the demon sword that Totosai helped to forge, I have successfully conquered the two countries of Mikawa and Owari."

"Under the arrangement of Lord Yukitaka, I left 20,000 troops to garrison in Owari, with my sister Xia Lan and brother Qiu Lan in charge of guarding the place."

Ye Men nodded slightly to show his approval:

"You've done a good job. You should come back and rest for a while. The battle line should not be stretched too long, otherwise it will be difficult to keep up with the food and grass."

Dong Lan led the Third Legion from Suruga and fought all the way to Owari, surrendering many monsters and human warriors along the way. The total number of the Third Legion has reached 35,000, so training is necessary.

However, it must be said that monsters with magic swords and monsters without magic swords are on two completely different levels.

Dong Lan, who received the demon sword tailor-made by Totosai, should have reached the level of a great demon now.

"Lord Yemen..." Dong Lan opened his mouth, wanting to say something but stopped.

Seeing this, Ye Men asked in surprise:

"What's wrong? Dong Lan."

"…Thanks."

? ?

"What are you thanking me for?"
