The truncated words were transformed into an apology.
A feeble apology.
This was clearly not the result Chino wanted.
Her small fists clenched tightly around the other person's clothes, making a cracking sound—the sound of anger!
"So you just let what you've created go unchecked; so you just let others clean up this mess?"
The little girl's eyes were red-rimmed, and even though her voice had no intimidating quality, anyone could hear the genuine anger in it!
In that instant, images of their months-long journey together flashed through his mind:
From the land of the sea, to the island of warships, and now to this island of spirits.
Whenever trouble arises, that idiot always puts his companions' lives first, putting himself in the most dangerous place.
However, they were the ones who were supposed to be his subordinates!
Those seemingly respectable ninja villages didn't treat them well during the cooperation, and even wanted to use their deaths to gain greater benefits!
"If Huang Ruo dies, you will all be buried with him!!"
Chino's eyes glowed crimson, and a single character was clearly imprinted in her pupils.
After staring intently at the words the man wrote, she casually tossed the bastard aside and walked towards the now-ruined laboratory. At the same time, the ground trembled, and a giant centipede the size of a hill crawled out from the ground.
This is a spirit beast with which Huang made a pact.
"Little Foot, dig this place up for me!"
Her voice had calmed down slightly, but a hint of sobbing could still be heard.
After giving the surviving researchers a fierce look, Kazeshin and Taku Makihara, who were also members of the Lightning Squad, followed Chino's lead and carried the stones by themselves.
Honoka was also stunned and stood there.
Although no one blamed her, her spirits plummeted.
That boy who said he would think of a way to repay me, that guy who descended before me like a god!
Is it really only possible to exist in fairy tales?
She staggered toward the laboratory.
A growing sense of self-blame echoed in my mind:
If it weren't for their own prayers, would that person not have come, and would they not have been buried under these ruins?
she does not know.
But all he could do was follow the example of that person's companion and silently begin moving the rubble.
Even though the jagged stones easily cut her calloused hands, she seemed oblivious to it.
'sorry. ’
If it weren't for me........
A muttered monologue lingered around his lips.
'Bah! '
But just then, a sharp eagle cry ripped through the sky, the shadow cast by its enormous wings obscuring a corner.
'That voice is...'
Chino subconsciously raised her eyes.
When she saw the person standing safely on it, her tears fell silently.
"Damn it!"
"How dare you deceive my feelings!!"
'But it's good that you're alive.'
'I knew you wouldn't die so easily.'
........
The Spirit Island gradually disappeared from sight.
However, the roars of all the beasts could still be heard.
Those were the summoned beasts bidding farewell to Ara!
We bid farewell to the human who 'buried' their companions.
This is also the newly acquired title, "Commander of Beasts," coming into effect.
Title Description: A being recognized by countless summoned beasts, who are wholeheartedly willing to fight for you.
Title effect: The power of your summoned beasts is increased (the degree of increase depends on their original power), unclaimed wild summoned beasts will not easily become hostile towards you, and it also has a certain suppressive effect on the summoned beasts of your enemies.
No summoned beast is willing to be your enemy.
Please also cherish their gratitude.
Upon receiving such a title, Huang was speechless for a long time.
This reminded him of the spirits on Battleship Island, who were just like that.
All I did was do what I was supposed to do.
Furthermore, the initial journey was solely for obtaining the Uzumaki clan girl, Honoka, and the quest reward, "The Blessing of the Uzumaki Clan."
This gift is really a bit too heavy.
Meanwhile, regarding the [Blessing of the Uzumaki Clan]:
Blessing Description: Having saved the Whirlpool Clan several times, you have earned their recognition and are offered their sincere blessings.
Blessing effect: The host's chakra limit is permanently doubled, and the degree of increase is related to the host's current strength.
In other words, the more chakra one has, the greater the degree of improvement.
Once Ara truly matures, the title of "Tailless Tailed Beast" may well change hands.
Of course, while in the ruins, he also summoned the shikigami that had been triggered: [Hungry Ghost - Undiscriminating Eater].
Looking at the ragged, emaciated little monster in front of him, Huang ultimately couldn't muster any sympathy.
"Become my strength."
"In exchange, I will give you food every day, and it will no longer be limited to sweet potatoes."
This is the limit of what he can do.
After all, this monster in front of him was someone he didn't quite like.
Upon hearing this, the hungry ghost trembled, and something different appeared in its lifeless eyes; its Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily.
Food seemed to easily trigger his survival instincts.
only.......
"Respected Onmyoji..."
He weakly raised his eyes, his voice feeble and his speech slow, like an old man nearing the end of his life.
Huang remained silent, waiting quietly for the other party to finish speaking.
Even if the other party is a monster they don't particularly like.
"I........"
The hungry ghost paused just before revealing something, but after a short while, he slowly uttered what he wanted to say:
"Can I change my wish?"
Huang frowned slightly.
Of all the demons, he was the only one he didn't want to bargain with.
but.
"Go ahead."
"However, I'm not sure I can do it."
"That's because of your sister."
Hearing this uncertain answer, the hungry ghost did not show any disappointment. Instead, a strange and ingratiating smile appeared on its pale and emaciated face.
"I want to see my sister again."
"This is my wish."
He spoke slowly.
The light in his eyes grew even stronger, a light far more intense than when he heard that he would have food to eat every day!
"can."
"But do you have anything she left behind?"
Huang did not refuse the request.
"I have!"
'Ahem. '
The hungry ghost suddenly became agitated, and its frail body coughed violently due to the excitement, while its dirty hands searched its body.
However, after a moment, his expression became stiff and awkward.
"I do not have."
"I do not have."
"I have nothing left!"
The hungry ghost's voice went from urgent to dejected, and finally to inexplicable collapse.
"Can I use my own flesh and blood?"
Suddenly, he raised his nearly broken face and asked the Onmyoji in front of him.
