"So, what should we do?"
"Like Yakumo Yukari and the others, moving to that world?"
Nanxing asked.
As Kikyo said, they cannot dwell on the past but should focus on the future.
But, now.
When the vast majority of monsters will be transferred with the establishment of the new world.
Whether it is [Miko] or [Ninja], their role will be greatly reduced.
——When humans no longer need this profession, there will no longer be a soil for this profession to survive in this world.
The principle of putting away the bow when the birds are dead applies everywhere.
In the face of this rapidly changing era, the best thing for those old people who cannot keep up with the changes of the times seems to be to retreat bravely to avoid losing their reputation in old age.
Of course, there are also some people who want to have the best of both worlds.
For example, Yasamune Kanako and Kagome Suwako - they are worshipped by the faith of two worlds, so that their power increases instead of decreases even though they are living in the Dharma Ending Age, and they have a vague feeling of surpassing their limits.
But Kikyo didn't intend to do that.
"Just stay here."
She said very quietly.
She was unwilling to leave this world - even though this world no longer needed her, an "outdated witch".
It took her fourteen years to gradually adapt to this identity change from an eyewitness to a bystander.
But at the same time, Kikyo didn't think that she was so poor and weak that she couldn't do anything for the world.
——She is still the strongest witch with extraordinary spiritual power.
Although this is no longer her era, destiny is no longer on her side.
But her abilities will not be compromised because of this kind of thing.
In fact, in a sense, Kikyo has become stronger now than before.
Therefore, most of the monsters stronger than Kikyo were moved away with the opening of the new world.
"So, just live here."
“It’s always useful.”
"If anything happens, you can take care of it."
……
Kikyo is determined.
Nanxing didn't stop him either.
Even, secretly, he still supported it.
——He doesn't want to move to another world either.
The scene brings back memories and inevitably makes people sad.
In comparison, it is better to turn a blind eye.
But then again.
Although Nanxing had no plans to stay in that ninja world permanently, he still often traveled between the two worlds.
Because he also wants to transfer something to that world.
【Lake of Mist】.
This "natural wonder" that once gave birth to countless fairies no longer belongs to this world.
Along with the misty lake disappeared, the ninjas that once belonged to Nanxing also disappeared.
——He gave up completely.
Now that I have lost my daughter, who can I leave my big career to?
Therefore, he directly disbanded the ninja organization under his name and let them scatter around the world.
Unexpectedly, this made the era of ninjas even more prosperous.
When a whale falls, all things are born.
The former "Maple Village" has been disbanded.
In their place, there are nearly a hundred ninja organizations of all sizes.
Among them are some of the well-known ninja schools in later generations:
【Koga】
【Iga】
【Wind Demon】
【Shiranui】
【……】.
Chapter 46 Even Death Cannot Separate Us
1603 AD.
This is a crucial year.
During this year, three major events occurred.
The first major event was that Tokugawa Ieyasu accepted the appointment of Emperor Go-Yōzei and became the new Shogun and Right Minister.
This marks the end of an era.
After nearly 150 years of competition, the chaotic Warring States period finally came to an end.
As the ultimate winner, Tokugawa Ieyasu may not be the most heroic hero, but he is the one who has the last laugh.
【Edo period】
The new era will be named after his rule.
At the same time, with the end of the old era, a new era begins.
Yakumo Yukari's [Immigration Plan] also came to a temporary end.
"In nearly fifty years, there have been nearly 100,000 immigrants."
This is the result of Yakumo Yukari.
During these fifty years, she was like an old woman who picked up rags, walking around east and west every day.
When they came across some isolated villages, they would gather the villagers and take them away.
Of course, in addition to humans, she will also encounter monsters.
She tried to persuade some monsters to go with her to a world where "monsters can survive forever."
But there are also some monsters who are stubborn and stay in this world and refuse to leave.
It doesn't matter.
Anyway, Yakumo Yukari's plan has almost been completed.
The planet's recovery can also be described as "very good".
According to Bo Li's plan, the passage between the two worlds will be completely closed in the near future.
At that time, except for a few people, it will be absolutely impossible for other monsters to go to that world.
"Everyone has their own choice."
"I can't even decide what Youyouzi will eat in the evening."
"Not to mention deciding how these monsters live."
Yakumo Yukari said so.
It is worth mentioning that next to her, there is a fox monster with a long golden tail.
Nine-tailed fox with golden hair and jade face.
The supreme one among the fox demon clan, a natural born great demon.
Now, he is Yakumo Yukari's Shikigami, serving her.
Yakumo Yukari named her "Yakumo Aran".
This perfunctory approach made Nanxing doubt Yakumo Yukari's talent in naming.
——If she collects a few more shikigami in the future, will she directly form a rainbow team?
"..."
The above are two major events that took place in 1603.
About humans and monsters.
But for Nanxing, these two major events were not as important as the third major event:
Platycodon is dead.
……
In 1603, Kikyo was seventy years old.
In this age where the average age is no more than 30, 40 is considered "old" and 50 is considered "long-lived".
It is a very lucky thing to be able to live to seventy and die without any illness.
night.
Nanxing looked at Kikyo's remains in silence.
In the end, he was unable to keep the woman he loved most.
But when this moment really came, Nanxing was somewhat surprised to find out.
Death didn't seem to be that difficult for him to accept.
"But, you will also be this old one day."
Nanxing looked at the old woman with gray hair in front of her.
Her face was covered with wrinkles and she no longer had the beauty she had when she was young.
But at the same time, those ruthless years also gave her more peace.
She grew old and died.
He is no longer young and has become an old man in the true sense of the word.
During these fifty years, Nanxing grew old with Platycodon, completing this journey called "life".
the next day.
When the funeral was held for Platycodon, people in the village no longer even knew Platycodon's original name.
——Too much time has passed, and the witch who was once famous all over the world has now been forgotten.
All we know is that this old woman who died seemed to be a wise elder, and everyone in the village respected her very much.
"But your sister is still alive."
Nanxing saw Feng with red eyes.
Fifty years have passed and she is no longer young.
But her body is very strong, the kind of strong that looks very robust.
Nanxing asked Yan Luo.
Feng's lifespan seems to be over a hundred years.
……
It was a busy day at Kikyo's funeral.
