Chapter 135: Emiya: Don't underestimate my intelligence network
Chapter 135: Emiya: Don't underestimate my intelligence network
Ever since his father mentioned Shirou Emiya, Gen Chisei has specifically learned about this person's deeds and has deep admiration for his deeds of slaying gods and dragons. Such outstanding talent is rare even in the powerful secret party. What's more commendable is that the other party is not a member of the secret party, but is more likely to be of the same kind as himself, who came from the same land.
Therefore, Yuan Zhisheng had imagined and expected many times, if his father Tachibana Masamune had not arranged the meeting here, what would the meeting scene between him and this legendary god-killing hybrid be like...
For example, you can have a friendly kendo match in an ancient kendo field with superb sword skills, and learn each other's names and get to know each other; or you can order sake and eat "one juice and three dishes" in a quiet traditional kaiseki restaurant, and let the sound of shamisen or pipa dispel the awkward atmosphere between strangers, and talk to each other from the heart.
In short, Yuan Zhisheng’s idea is to pay attention to the gradual progress and formalism in the style of a Japanese.
Therefore, he never expected that the moment they met, Emiya would reveal his family background.
According to the information, Emiya should have never had any contact with the people from the Snake Eight Families since he was a child. Until later, he often went abroad, and he had even less contact with them. In addition, the secrets of the "Emperor" were blocked by the family, so it was impossible for him to pay attention to Minamoto Chisei, a rising star in the Executive Bureau in recent years.
Minamoto Chisei wondered, could it be that the Shenzhou family, who often interacted with Emiya, had found out about him and told Emiya? This was not surprising. Minamoto Chisei's public identity and surname would indeed remind people of Minamoto no Raikou, a famous general of the Minamoto clan in the Heian period.
The story of Minamoto no Raikou and his four heavenly kings conquering the demon of Mount Oe is well-known in Japan.
But the truth is not that complicated, the Shenzhou family rarely pays attention to these small families in the island country, not to mention Yuan Zhisheng, a young man who has just debuted for a few years.
The reason why Emiya could tell that the other party was related to "Minamoto no Raikou" was purely because he recognized the ancient aura of those two famous swords.
Now that he has been forging swords for a long time, he always has a sense of familiarity with some well-known ancient sword treasures, just like a craftsman who has been immersed in sword making for many years and has a natural keen perception of peerless treasures.
Similarly, Emiya can tell the difference between an ordinary blade and a good sword at a glance, and can even identify the specific information of a certain sword by staring at it, and even try to project and copy it on the spot...
Never mind, it would be a bit rude to pirate it on the spot.
"Yes, Lord Emiya is indeed a living legend with a keen eye. I am indeed a descendant of the Minamoto clan," Minamoto Chisei praised in his heart and shook hands with Emiya, "and I am also the current head of the Minamoto family, Minamoto Chisei."
"No, 'living legend' is too high a description!"
To be honest, Emiya was still feeling lucky. It was well known that the nicknames people in this country gave to others and even their daily language always had a "middle school" vibe to them. This culture was ingrained in their bones.
For example, "一生璇命" means to try one's best, and "天地無用" means not to put it upside down. People are given nicknames such as "Sushi God" and "Rice Cooking Immortal"... as if cooking can "prove one's way of life through cooking."
He was afraid that the other party would use a more shameful and outrageous nickname as soon as she opened her mouth. Fortunately, when he met up with the Zhou family, the other girls had already gone their separate ways. If Nuonuo was there at that moment, wouldn't she have burst out laughing on the spot?
"I see. Lord Emiya doesn't seem to like excessive pomp and circumstance or unnecessary attention."
Yuan Zhisheng clapped his hands, and the gangsters who were lined up in two columns in the museum's lobby seemed to have received a unified order. Everyone immediately turned around and left in an orderly manner, retreating behind the huge screen-like shelter and disappearing.
Not long after, there were only a handful of people left behind Gen Chisei, which was about the same number as the Zhou family members behind Emiya. This behavior was indeed an attitude of respect for the guests.
Emiya looked at the crowd which had suddenly thinned out and nodded secretly. The head of the Minamoto family was obviously managing and commanding a considerable force.
Now that Nuonuo is not present, he cannot use profiling to test these Japanese families in more detail, so everything depends on his own judgment.
From the cursory observation when they just met, Emiya found that most of these retreating people were wearing dark black uniforms with Ukiyo-e patterns on the inside and black bow ties. This contrast with the clothing style in the middle of summer, coupled with their strong physique and stern expressions, made them look like gangsters who came out of a movie.
He remembered that in "The Adventures of Lord El-Melloi II", it was mentioned that the members of the Night Robbery Family were also dressed like gangsters. They ran various secular businesses such as casinos, concealing their true identities under the appearance of gangsters.
So, Emiya said meaningfully, "These people are not ordinary gangsters. You can send so many people to control the entire exhibition hall. I believe the capital strength under your family must be extremely strong."
Gen Chisei was not surprised that Emiya saw through his family so thoroughly. Since the other party could tell his identity at a glance, he should have made a more detailed and comprehensive investigation of his family's strength.
"Yes, the family is indeed involved in many industries. If it can be described as huge, it is indeed worthy of the name. As for those people just now, most of them are of thin bloodline and mediocre talents. There are many such people in the family. Lord Emiya does not need to pay attention to them."
Although Gen Chisheng was polite and considerate in his treatment of Yasha, Crow and other subordinates, he only treated capable people. Gen Chisheng never paid extra attention to those with low abilities or even useless people. After hearing Gen Chisheng's answer, Emiya thought to himself that it was just as he expected.
All aristocratic families have this problem, no matter if they are mixed-blood or magician families, they all adhere to the theory that bloodline is supreme. Talent determines the upper limit of ability, and good bloodline determines the upper limit of talent. Therefore, the reproduction model of aristocratic families is like conducting breeding experiments on animals and plants.
After many generations, the descendants have multiplied and those with superior breeds become the winners and the heads of the family, while those with inferior breeds either die in the competition or give up their dreams and become ordinary people.
The two men led their respective groups to formally enter the internal exhibition halls of the Sword Museum. The items on display in these exhibition halls, including the collection of swords and materials, had all been arranged in advance by the Snake Eight Families.
Many alchemical swords that were hidden in the family inventory and had never been seen all day were taken out and replaced with some low-level ordinary swords that were only of collection value. Therefore, these rare treasures were displayed in the booth and exposed to fluorescent lights, sparkling with gold-plated or bright silver metallic luster.
Ever since entering the exhibition hall, Emiya's attention was diverted in an instant. For him who was eager for the design drawings of the treasures, this place could be said to be a "feast for the eyes"... Perhaps even the beautiful faces and charming figures of beautiful girls such as Nono, Melyucina and Xia Mi were not as attractive as the swords in front of him.
What's a woman? Now, a woman will only slow down my sword-fighting speed!
"This sword, Sujumaru Tsuneji, is also called the Sword of Breaking Evil and Revealing Truth, and is known as one of the five swords in the world. It was the weapon used by Nichiren Shonin. At that time, Nichiren Shonin lived in seclusion on Mount Minobu in Kai Province. A believer at the foot of the mountain presented this sword to him. Several prayer beads were wrapped around the handle, so it was called Sujumaru."
Although Minamoto no Chisei was not in charge of matters related to the family's sword collection, he was no stranger to the famous swords in it. His own swords, "Spider-Kiri" and "Doji-Kiri Yasutsugu", were also taken from the family's collection and were among the five swords of the world, along with "Suzumaru Tsunetsugu".
"The Five Blades of the World are worthy of their reputation," Emiya nodded in praise, "The same is true of your swords 'Arashi-kiri' and 'Doji-kiri Yasutsuna'. I believe that they are among the best swords in the entire collection."
Gen Chisei was surprised at Emiya's precise "intelligence network" that worked time and time again:
"Yes, what I carry is the ancient famous sword inherited from my family. It is also the weapon I am allowed to wield as the strongest 'demon slayer' in my family."
The value of these ancient alchemical swords, besides being used for collection, can only be used to kill and stain blood. Genshisei never thought that Emiya could learn the design drawings by observation.
The Sheqi Eight Clan was not as good at alchemy as the Gaotingen Family. These ancient sword forging techniques had long been lost in the changing times, so that these ancient swords had become rare items. The Yanliu Research Institute of the Sheqi Eight Clan had tried to replicate these forging techniques, but its alchemy sword products were never as good as these prestigious ancient swords.
In addition, Gen Chisei also knew that his father, Masamune Tachibana, often forged swords in a mountain hut, but that was entirely Masamune Tachibana's personal hobby. The forged blades were of very high quality, and any dusty ancient sword picked out from the family collection could beat Masamune Tachibana's crude work.
If these preparations can just cater to his needs and allow him to establish a good relationship with Emiya, then the plan to win over Emiya will have made a good start and will be halfway to success...
However, the display of these swords and weapons was arranged by his father Tachibana Masamune. As expected, his father was more meticulous. Gen Chisei originally thought that this was just a casual arrangement made by his father based on his personal preference, but it turned out that he had noticed Emiya's preference.
"'Demon Slayer'?"
Emiya was a little unfamiliar with the term mentioned by Minamoto no Chisei, but considering that Minamoto no Chisei was a descendant of the Genji, he quickly understood its meaning. It should be similar to the "Four Great Demon-Exorcist Families of Type-Moon", a family mission to kill non-human monsters such as "demons".
“Is this your family’s destiny?”
Gen Chisei's pupils shrank slightly. He almost forgot how many times he was surprised today. Emiya actually revealed the fateful hostile relationship between the Eight Snake Families and the Oni Clan.
In this land, the Eight Clans of Sheqi gathered the most outstanding hybrids of the White King's bloodline, but they were different from the Black King's bloodline, they were very likely to give birth to unstable bloodlines. In other words, it was extremely easy for them to degenerate into the bloodline of "ghosts" (Deadpool).
These half-breeds with unstable bloodlines were either imprisoned by their families or rebelled and fled. The fugitives gathered together to become the "Fierce Ghost Crowd" and openly opposed the family.
The family has tried to exterminate the fierce ghosts more than once, but the latter always revive. Because as long as the Eight Clans of Sheqi exist, unstable bloodlines will always be born, and the ghosts of the fierce ghosts are endless.
The fierce ghosts are the shadow of the Eight Snake Clan, and slaying ghosts is the sad fate of the family. Because in a sense, they are erasing their own people.
Just like in the Heian period, their ancestors Minamoto no Raikou and the Four Heavenly Kings also went up the mountain to kill the "Oeyama Demons", the predecessor of the fierce demons.
