I unleashed a Hundred Demons Parade in the Ninja World

Page 1064

[Huh? Why am I admitting that this big oaf is the Lord of Arakawa?]

[Clearly, that's the title I wanted to win...]

"You're right,"

“Your opponent should be me, the Lord of Arakawa.”

The big, clumsy man responded to the leader of the sirens and the sirens that almost blotted out the sea and the sky.

The two great demons' eyes met, and I couldn't understand the emotions in their eyes.

Subsequently,

The siren has temporarily retreated, giving Arakawa a brief respite.

On the road of escape, far from Arakawa,

I kept turning around to look back.

At this moment, he stood alone above the desolate river, holding a demonic sword wreathed in demonic energy, and wearing ancient armor.

That was the armor he wore when he conquered the sea.

In my childhood, I witnessed the imposing power of the Lord of Arakawa.

Having heard that he had conquered the vast ocean, I have since dreamed of surpassing him:

Conquer a world wider than the ocean!

Whenever he puts on this armor, he always acts like a hero, single-handedly resisting enemies who dare to invade Arakawa.

Day after day, week after week, they have never been defeated.

Looking at that figure, the water sprites living here, and I, all feel very at ease.

He is the master of Arakawa!

They are the guardians of Arakawa!!

In Arakawa no Nushi's dictionary, the word "rout" simply does not exist.

Whether out of a sense of responsibility as a leader or to uphold the dignity of a warrior, he had no reason to flee, even when facing a resurgent, overwhelming sea monster.

but,

The result this time will be the same as before.

They're the same, aren't they...?

Even when he urged us to leave, he said to me with a melancholy expression, "This is the last battle," as if he knew his fate!

Before I could say anything, the melancholy on Yu Zhi's face was decisively wiped away:

"Little dwarf, you've always wanted to become the Lord of Arakawa, and today your wish will come true."

“Lead the Arakawa clan to flee to Kyoto, and I will follow you there.”

I saw no fear on his face.

But I know that this is his final farewell to himself.

"don't want,"

I shook my head defiantly and angrily declared to him:

"How could the Lord of Arakawa possibly run away?"

"I will fight here to the very last moment!"

I know he won't leave.

Therefore, I won't either!

I clenched my fists.

His gaze did not waver at all.

But the big, clumsy guy gently rubbed my head with his palm, and his usually stern gaze softened considerably at that moment.

"Don't forget, the true duty of the Lord of Arakawa is to protect the people of Arakawa."

I turned and ran away, tears streaming down my face.

For the first time, I listened to him, even though I had always resisted and provoked him.

The sea monsters behind them continued to advance towards the land, carrying with them towering waves, turning the land into their battleground.

Meanwhile, the big, dumb guy is single-handedly stopping the sirens' pursuit.

Ordinary monsters are no match for even a single blow from a hero!

But at this moment,

The leader of the sirens leaped from the towering waves, and even from a distance, I could still hear its defiant and wicked question:

"It's a battle you're destined to lose. What do you have left to fight?"

But as he drew his sword to meet the attack, he roared out the belief he had upheld for a century.

"Because,"

"I am the Lord of Arakawa!!"

"No!"

"do not want!"

As I led my people in their escape, I watched as countless sea monsters pounced on me, and I couldn't help but let out a defiant roar.

Despite being just a big, clumsy creature, it stood like a high wall, blocking the pursuing ghost ships and sea monsters.

【I,】

I don't want to be the Lord of Arakawa anymore, I just want you to come back safe and sound!

【who,】

Who can help him?

Looking at the giant, dumb creature swallowed by endless sirens, something seemed to flow from my eyes, blurring my vision.

But at that moment, I remembered someone.

A secret that belongs only to me.

Even the big, simple-minded guy didn't know that person existed.

Because that is my secret weapon to defeat him in the future.

but now,

I don't want to fulfill that wish anymore!

【shortage,】

【shortage!】

Can you hear me?

Arakawa was attacked by sea monsters, and the big, simple-minded guy was fighting off the endless sea monsters all by himself.

I don't know how long he can hold on.

I don't want to defeat that big, dumb guy anymore.

[If you can hear me,]

Please,

Please help me, help Arakawa, help him.

Please, my Onmyoji master...

Is such a prayer effective?

I have no idea,

Because later on, I also heard many rumors about Onmyoji from the perspective of yokai.

Hey, do you guys know about Onmyoji?

I've heard of it! I've heard of it!

[It is said that they are a special group of humans who can communicate with the yin and yang energies and use yin-yang magic. They lure naive monsters into becoming their shikigami and enslave them forever.]

This isn't even the most dangerous part!

[A large portion of the Onmyoji harbor an inexplicable hostility towards yokai, especially the Minamoto clan of Kyoto, who constantly clamor to eradicate the yokai of Mount Oe. Fortunately, our Arakawa region is quite a distance from Kyoto.]

Of course, not all Onmyoji are like that, but I haven't heard of any who can get along with yokai on equal terms or even become friends with them.

After all, humans are cunning and selfish.

[Oh, the one rumored in Kyoto should be considered one, but that person also has yokai blood flowing through their veins, making them a half-yokai.]

Therefore, it's best to avoid getting involved with them.

【......】

but,

All I can do now is clasp my hands together and humbly and devoutly pray.

Can,

no respond,

There was no response whatsoever.

Siren had already circled the long coastline and was chasing after me, and I could hear the Arakawa people calling for me to leave.

However, my prayers have still not been answered.
