Legend of Diablo Hongmaru
Chapter 2
"Are there any new faces in the forest these two days?"
The moment he stepped out of Honnmaru, a blue bird the size of a sparrow flew towards him. It landed on Jiang Shu's shoulder and started chirping.
"The strange black guy and the rubber man?"
Jiang Shu took out a handful of grains from his pocket. The green bird jumped onto his palm and started pecking at the grains.
After it finished eating, the green bird started combing its blue feathers with its beak.
"Go. Send me a message if there's anything."
Jiang Shu raised his hand. The green bird flapped its wings and flew towards the forest. It let out a long chirp that echoed throughout the forest.
As he turned around, he saw half a face behind the door. It was staring at him as if it was afraid that he wouldn't notice it.
Chaos: Yes, going out is not a problem at all.
The lion on the door: Yes, it's you. Get my bracelet back!
Jiang Shu looked at the twitching lion and didn't really want to talk to it.
"Do you want to eat together?" Jiang Shu stepped over the threshold, ignored the lion on the door, and closed the door.
Midare Toushiro stared at Jiang Shu's face and nodded slightly.
Seeing that he agreed, Jiang Shu led him to the dining room.
"Hikari, is it ready?" As soon as he entered the dining room, he saw Yagen and Gokotai helping to set the table.
"It's ready." Candlestick Cutter came in with a tray with five miso soups on it.
"Thank you for your hard work." Jiang Shu sat at the head of the table with a smile. He didn't feel embarrassed at all.
Candlestick Cutter was used to Jiang Shu's shamelessness.
As an outsider, Yagen's Three Blades just sat there quietly. His actions were respectful, but he didn't have any intention of speaking.
Jiang Shu didn't care.
"Thank you for your hospitality." Jiang Shu put down his bowl and chopsticks. "Today's food is delicious, Hikari."
Candlestick Qie smiled, obviously very happy.
"My lord, can we spare Yagen and the others for a while?" Yagen and Gokotai stopped what they were doing and looked very nervous.
"Sure, there are plenty of rooms anyway." Jiang Shu picked up the small table and prepared to take it to the kitchen.
"My Lord, just leave it to me." Candlestick was eager to get up.
"No, no, no. Sit down and continue eating. It's a small matter."
"Oh, right."
As Jiang Shu was about to step out of the door, he suddenly remembered something. He turned around and said, "Try not to get close to the rooms in the backyard."
In this way, Jiang Shu and the Fu Mourning God lived together peacefully for more than half a month.
Jiang Shu did not explicitly ask them to leave, and they did not mention it. In order to repay Jiang Shu, they did their best to do what they could for Honnmaru.
Finally, Chaos' body could not hold on any longer.
After losing the power of the God Inquisitor, her body became weaker and weaker. She started to lie on the bed, and her body gradually became transparent.
Yagen and Gokotai knelt on either side of Chaos. They looked at Chaos, who was unconscious but still frowning. Their breathing was rapid, and their eyes were full of anxiety. They also hated themselves for not being able to do anything.
They could escape from the God Inquisitor's hands, but they could not escape the instincts of their bodies.
They used the God Inquisitor's hands to come to this world from another world.
Although they were gods, they were the lowest gods.
After losing the God Inquisitor's power, they were like marionettes with their strings cut. They gained freedom, but they lost the ability to move. They could not even keep their bodies in shape.
Gokotai lowered his head, and his expression could not be seen. Only his tightly clenched fists on his thighs revealed his emotions.
The five little tigers stopped playing and quietly curled up in a corner of the room.
"Chaos will be fine." He seemed to be saying this to Yagen and Chaos, but he also seemed to be making a promise to himself.
Gokotai stood up and walked out of the room.
Jiang Shu squatted beside the pile of ash in the backyard, poking and touching the knife from time to time.
When Gokotai found Jiang Shu, Jiang Shu was holding his chin and thinking about something.
Gokotai found it difficult to walk.
Although he had been so determined in front of Yagen, he could not speak when it came to action.
After all, they had already caused a lot of trouble for Sir Jiang Shu by living here.
"Did you encounter any problems?"
Actually, when Gokotai arrived at the courtyard, Jiang Shu had already come back to his senses. He just waited for Gokotai to speak.
"…" Gokotai's hands gripped the corners of his clothes tightly. His clothes were also wrinkled.
His head was lowered.
Sigh. Jiang Shu sighed and walked in front of Gokotai. He squatted down and looked directly into Gokotai's eyes.
"Can you tell me what happened?" Jiang Shu tried to make his expression as gentle as possible.
"I …" As soon as Gokotai opened his mouth, his eyes started to water uncontrollably.
Jiang Shu nodded and encouraged him to continue.
"Sir, can you help me with this mess?" Tears rolled down her cheeks.
Jiang Shu straightened up and took Gokotai's hand. "Come, can you take me to see her?"
He had been taking care of his own food for the past few days, so he did not have much contact with them.
He did not expect Chaos to be so weak.
"Sir Jiang Shu." The moment he saw Jiang Shu, a glimmer of hope appeared in Yagen's eyes, but it was quickly extinguished.
Jiang Shu nodded at Yagen and looked at Midare Toushiro. He picked up Chaos's body, which was beside the pillow.
"Do you trust me?"
"Of course." Yagen nodded solemnly.
Gokotai's red eyes were full of trust.
Jiang Shu smiled and tapped the scabbard with his finger. Chaos's body turned into a fluorescent light and melted into the blade.
"Don't worry." Before he left, he patted Gokotai's head to comfort him.
Standing on the ground in the backyard again, Jiang Shu pulled the sword out of the scabbard.
The blade looked a bit dim, and the edge of the blade was a bit blunt.
Jiang Shu dug a hole in the ground, buried the sword, and filled it up. Then, he patted the ground.
"Be a good girl and go to sleep."
After a while, Chaos was still lying in the ground. Yagen and Gokotai could not leave. It was like they had settled down.
