After Ye Shencai said these words, the entire palace fell into an unprecedented silence.
Even the moonlight faded from their faces, casting a shadow.
In the darkness, Ye Shenkong's voice became calmer than ever before.
"Cai, is everything you said true?"
"Because of the restrictions of the curse seal rules, the child will only be a girl?"
"In that case, I..."
"......Um."
Yagami Sai lowered her head, avoiding Yagami Sora's sight, and her fingers nervously grasped the hem of her yukata.
"Really? Is that so?"
Ye Shenkong raised his hand, stared at the blurry outline of his palm, and said softly.
"It's really ironic. Speaking of which, I once doubted whether I was my biological child. After all, not only could I not inherit my mother's power, but I was forced to take on a huge debt. No matter how you look at it, this doesn't feel like treating me.
My son’s method, right?”
"Looking at it now, this should be the answer——"
After hearing what Ye Shenkong said, Ye Shencai couldn't help but said anxiously.
"Wait a minute, things are not what brother thinks!"
"Although Cai doesn't know what is going on, there is no doubt that my brother is my mother's child. This is absolutely correct!"
"Well?"
Seeing his sister's reaction, this time it was Yagami Sora's turn to be confused.
"Cai, why did you say that?"
Ye Shencai took a deep breath and said firmly.
"Because Cai peeked into mother's diary."
"From the moment she met my father, my mother has been looking forward to the birth of her brother."
"Every line and page in the diary is a longing for my brother's future. I hope you can grow up healthily and not be defeated by setbacks. Although I know it is meaningless, I still happily plan my future life for my brother.
."
"Brother, mother, she really, really loves you."
"No matter how heavy the price is, she will definitely let you come to this world and open your eyes to see the world."
Hearing this, Yashenkong couldn't help but lost consciousness for a moment and murmured.
"In other words, mother did not surrender to the rules of the curse seal, but broke the restrictions of the rules, so she had me."
I should have thought of it earlier.
The power to break the rules...isn't this the power that his unique physique brings to him?
Ye Shencai nodded slightly.
"Yes, this is what Cai wants to say, my brother is special."
"etc."
Suddenly, Ye Shenkong spoke, with some doubts in his eyes.
"Cai, you said that my mother has been preparing for my birth from the beginning?"
"Did my mother know that I was a boy from the very beginning? Isn't this strange?"
Ye Shencai was startled, her long furry tail twitched behind her, and then she felt a little confused.
"This... Cai doesn't know, it's not written in my mother's diary."
"Really? In that case, maybe you deliberately skipped this point for some reason?"
Ye Shenkong lowered his head and pondered, his eyes shining with thought.
"If this is not caused by my mother, then it can only be caused by that man."
He raised his head and looked at his sister, with a solemn look on his face that he had never seen before.
"Cai, is our father really just an ordinary human being?"
Ye Shencai was startled again, and then tried to answer.
"This...Actually, Cai is not very clear either."
"But judging from Mother's diary, Father must be just an ordinary human being."
"Huh? How can you tell this?"
Yagami Cai cleared her voice and said.
"According to the records in my mother's diary, when she was preparing for pregnancy, she had to pay attention to controlling her power at all times, otherwise she would drain her father dry if she was not careful."
"My mother was also very distressed about this. During that time, in order to keep up with my father's nutrition, she specially made a diet list for him. Oh, by the way, the one that Cai gave to Sister Chiba
The list is actually based on Mother’s copy.”
"Thankfully, my mother took good care of me. In the end, my father only lost a few dozen pounds, and my mother became pregnant successfully."
I see, is this why the man tried to escape from his mother...
What a sad story.
Hearing this, Ye Shenkong couldn't help but feel a faint feeling of pity in his heart, and the hatred towards him in his heart suddenly decreased by three thousandths.
He shook his head and said.
"Forget it, let's leave this issue aside for now."
"Next question, why is mother missing?"
"Since she can create such a powerful singularity as Nasuno, it means that her strength has reached an incredible level. If this is the case, who has such terrifying power that can threaten her?"
"So, what do you think, brother?"
While talking, Ye Shencai had already climbed onto the bed, leaned down, and climbed towards Ye Shenkong softly.
But Ye Shenkong was still immersed in the ocean of thoughts, unaware of this.
"From my perspective, the power that can threaten her is no longer something humans can possess."
"Sure enough, is it a god?"
Ye Shencai shook his head.
"Cai thinks it shouldn't happen. According to the records in her mother's diary, she and the Lord of Gao Tianyuan are very close friends with each other, so other gods must be courteous when they see my mother."
"What!?"
Hearing this, Yashenkong couldn't help but open his mouth in surprise.
The Lord of Takamagahara...
You're referring to Inari God's aunt, the neon sun goddess, Amaterasu, right?
She actually has contacts with gods of that level. My mother's path is really unexpectedly broad...
He couldn't help but ask.
"Cai, mother, how did she get to know such a noble god?"
Ye Shencai nodded her chin and recalled.
"Well...it seems that because that master once had a fight with my mother, but never, he became my mother's best friend."
Seeing his sister's expression that was not joking, Yagami couldn't help but take a breath.
Even Amaterasu is no match for his mother?
How powerful is my mother...
Before Ye Shenkong could recover from his surprise, Ye Shencai suddenly came close to his ear and breathed softly into it.
"So brother, do you have any other ideas?"
At this moment, Ye Shenkong suddenly came to his senses and looked at his sister who had been lying on his chest for some time. He couldn't help but look a little strange.
"color......"
Ye Shencai blinked when he heard this.
"Hmm? Is something wrong, brother?"
"Why do you have to get so close when you're talking?"
In response, Ye Shencai pouted dissatisfiedly.
"That's really stingy, but please don't forget, brother. Brother promised Cai before that he would not pursue the matter of getting into brother's bed. So Cai is free to do whatever he wants."
Faced with this situation, Ye Shenkong said calmly.
"Yes, I did promise."
"But you see clearly, Cai, I don't have any quilt to cover me now, so there is no way to talk about the quilt."
In response to this, Ye Shencai looked like she was expecting it. She put her arms around Ye Shenkong's arm, rubbed her delicate cheek against his shoulder, and said with a contented look on her face.
"How could it be? It's my brother who needs to see clearly."
"Now my brother is covered with a colorful tail. For a fox, the tail is an important tool to keep out the cold. It is no different from a quilt."
"And don't forget, brother, this is high altitude, and it will be very cold at night if you don't cover yourself with a quilt."
"Brother, you don't want to get up with a cold tomorrow morning, right?"
Hearing this, Yashenkong couldn't help but be speechless for a moment.
As expected of her own sister, what she said was reasonable and well-founded, and there was no way to refute it.
Seeing Yagami Sora falling into silence, Yagami Cai raised his face and said proudly.
"How's it going, brother? Cai's tail is very comfortable, right? This is a rare opportunity. Brother, you can rub it more."
In this regard, Yashenkong had to try to change the topic.
"Let's go back to the previous question, Cai."
"If my mother's disappearance has nothing to do with gods, then..."
"That's so cunning, brother, but if you want Cai to answer the question, you can't do it without rubbing her tail."
Seeing this, Ye Shencai twisted her waist with some annoyance and motioned for Ye Shenkong to extend her hand.
"Okay, okay, I understand."
Ye Shenkong stretched out his hand with a headache, put his arms around his sister's slender and soft waist, and stroked one of her tails.
"How about it? Is this intensity okay?"
"Yeah~ Well, thank you brother..."
Ya Shencai snorted softly, and her body trembled slightly with Ya Shenkong's movements, as if there was an electric current flowing through her.
"So, can you answer me now?" Yagami Kong asked while stroking patiently.
"Since my mother's disappearance has nothing to do with the gods, then it can only be those who caused trouble, right?"
"Did you plan something because you coveted your mother's power?"
"Hmm~ Actually Cai... thinks so too." Yagami Cai's face turned slightly rosy and she responded in a sweet voice.
"After my mother disappeared, my brother who lost her protection was immediately targeted by those weird things."
"That's why Cai is worried about her brother's safety in the outside world."
Is that really the case?
After verifying his idea, Ye Shenkong couldn't help frowning and continued to think.
"If the other party is really one of those troublemakers, then why did mother want me to go to Tokyo?"
"Could it be that there are still any important clues about the troubles hidden in Tokyo?"
"This... Cai doesn't know..." Yagami Cai said in a suppressed voice.
"But... if it's my brother... he can definitely... find out the truth, right?"
"Hmm~"
...
The next day.
In the early morning, Ye Shenkong opened his eyes from his sleep.
The next moment, he seemed to realize something, raised his hand in front of his eyes, and slowly opened his palm.
A pale golden diamond-shaped curse seal appeared in his hand.
Different from the curse seals I have seen before, this curse seal seems to have countless rays of light beating inside, just like a sun sealed in the curse seal, it is powerful and sacred.
At this moment, the dancing lights in the curse seal all pointed at Ye Shencai, who was sleeping soundly next to him.
Half of her face was buried in the pillow, and the half of her exposed face showed an unconscious and reassuring smile. Just seeing it made her feel very satisfied.
Seeing this scene, Ye Shenkong couldn't help but reach out and lovingly pushed his sister's sleep-tangled hair behind her ears.
Really, she is still just a young girl after all. Looking at her like this, she must have dreamed of some innocent scene.
As if aware of Yagami's movements, Yagami couldn't help but cross her legs in her sleep and whispered in her sleep.
"Brother, these words are too intense..."
Hearing this, Ye Shenkong's movements suddenly froze, and the corners of his eyes twitched slightly.
Forget it, just pretend you didn’t say it.
He quietly got up from the bed, put on his limited gloves, took out a curse seal from the groove on the back of the glove, and then put the curse seal he had just obtained into it.
The next moment, the scene in front of him suddenly changed.
A huge and unfamiliar map spread out in front of him, countless times larger than the map that appeared during the previous wave of hostility.
And on the huge map, there are still illusory silver anchor points floating.
Looking at the map, Ye Shenkong seemed to realize something. He then stretched out his hand and touched one of the most obvious anchor points with his fingertips.
The next moment, the whole person disappeared from the palace.
...
Igazaka, flower nine miles.
Asakusa Shrine.
In front of the dressing table, Feng was sitting on a wooden stool, looking at himself in the mirror, his little face filled with joy.
Behind her, Yuzi, who was combing her hair, couldn't help but ask.
"Sister Feng, I remember your hair wasn't maple red before. Why did it turn into such an orange color?"
"Yes, Master Feng, why did the color of your hair change?" Xiao Zi, who was responsible for passing the comb next to her, also asked curiously.
Feng shook his head helplessly and spread his hands.
"That's why I said, you little kittens really don't understand anything."
"Listen carefully, when a cat spirit has been practicing for a long enough time, the color of its hair will change automatically. This means that you are a mature cat spirit and can do mature things."
Yuzu and Xiao Zi both tilted their heads.
"A mature... thing?"
Feng turned around, covered his mouth with his hands, and gave the two cat girls a malicious smile.
"Oh, oh, forget it, Xiaozi. Yuzu, why are you still pretending to be stupid here? Didn't you already go to repay your kindness to Lord Yagami, and didn't you not even get out of bed the next day?"
"Sister Feng, what are you talking about!" Yuzi suddenly turned red.
"It's okay, it's okay, no matter what I say, Mr. Yagami won't be able to hear you--"
Suddenly, Feng's eyes glanced at the corner of the mirror, and then slowly widened uncontrollably.
She turned around suddenly and looked at Yagami Sora behind Yuzi, her mouth wide open in surprise.
"Kora...Kora!? When were you there?"
"Your Majesty Yagami! Where did you come from -"
Yuzi and Xiaozi also discovered Yagami Sora who suddenly arrived at the scene, and couldn't help but look surprised.
Seeing the cat girls in front of him who were in a panic for a moment, Yagami looked at the limited gloves and couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
It seems that this is the new ability unlocked by the limited gloves after being embedded with Nasuno's curse seal.
