I unleashed a Hundred Demons Parade in the Ninja World

Chapter 622 Yao Ji, that's no longer my name.

"Why,"

"Why!"

Above the divine palace pavilion,

Himiko stood leaning against the railing at the highest point of Nichirin Castle, questioning the sky, which was shrouded in dark clouds, with a hoarse voice.

“I have prayed fervently countless times, I have humbly repented countless times, I have relinquished my identity, my status, and everything that belongs to the goddess to others!”

"Why won't you let me go?"

"Why is it still affecting the entire Sunwheel City?!"

"The people who live here have been your most devout followers for thousands of years!!"

"How could you bear to unleash divine punishment upon them?"

"If punishment is absolutely necessary, then punish me alone. I am willing to bear whatever the crime may be!"

"........."

As she roared with her head tilted back, she did not use her divine power to resist the erosion of the rain, but simply faced the wrath of heaven with the upright posture of a mortal and a sinner.

However, as the delicate makeup on her face gradually faded, as her beloved long hair and wedding dress were soaked by the rain, and as she completely lost the radiance and beauty she had on her wedding day.

She did not receive forgiveness from the heavens.

The sun, a symbol of life, never broke through the clouds and returned to this world.

The only response was the deafening roar of thunder and the faint, mournful cries of the officials within the city.

Just moments ago, there was only cheering and laughter.

[Clearly, I have already repented.]

Himiko stared straight at the sky shrouded in dark clouds. Rain and other liquids slowly slid down her suddenly haggard face. Her fingers, which had been pressing on the railing, clenched and strained several times, but finally relaxed in defeat.

[Timely Melody], [Mirror Beyond the Clouds]?

Even with two secret treasures, it could not muster any will to resist.

After all, this is something left behind by Takamagahara and by the sun god. Using a divine artifact left behind by a god to fight against the will of the entire Takamagahara?

That would be like throwing an egg against a rock; it would only hasten our demise!

"So, you really did foresee this?"

"This divine punishment will not stop."

Standing on the high platform in the pavilion, Yao Ji murmured to herself as she looked at her queen.

This calamity, which could have been avoided, had already been foreshadowed and punished by the gods several times.

"Lord Yao Ji,"

"Lady Yao, the plague in the city has broken out rapidly, and the symptoms of the infected are different from any other time before."

"The general-purpose medicines and isolation measures prepared in advance had very little effect."

"Now, there are cases of doctors getting infected, and even the General, the General himself..."

"cough,"

"Ahem..."

The soldier who came to report suddenly coughed violently, and through the gaps between his fingers covering his mouth and nose, a glaring crimson blood slowly seeped and slid down with the rain.

This scene pierced Yao Ji's eyes deeply.

The mention of the great general, in particular, stirred his heart.

They clearly anticipated the pattern of divine punishment, and they clearly gathered all the healers in Sunwheel City to face it, so how come there was absolutely no effect?!

Every disease in the world has a root cause.

[If we can find its pathology, then Sunwheel City will surely be able to survive this catastrophe.]

Suddenly, she recalled her confident remarks at the mansion two days ago.

A surge of immense shame and indignation welled up within me.

Her delicate hands curled up, her silver teeth clenched, and a halberd radiating purple light suddenly cleaved through the rain, hovering steadily beside her.

"Lord God!"

She roared at the sky, her beautiful eyes flashing with resolute anger.

"Do you really want to let the Sun Wheel City, which has worshipped you for thousands of years, fall into a dead land?"

Dreams and reality begin to overlap.

A powerless queen, a father who has passed away, streets ablaze with fire, lives slowly fading away, and the Sun Wheel City falling into an eternal cycle of darkness.

The following scene filled Yao Ji's eyes with determination.

But in response, there was still the thunder that roared through the sky.

Despairing, Yao Ji gradually turned her gaze back to the golden statue in her field of vision, and with her raised right hand, she grasped the Moon Halberd hanging at her side.

Since you insist on doing so...

Her jade-like fingers clenched tightly, and power surged within them.

Blood vessels began to appear unconsciously in his cold eyes.

As she made her decision, she picked up her weapon, waded through the puddles, and walked toward the enormous golden statue, carrying with her aura of palpable malevolence.

The woman's state not only caused the surrounding soldiers of the Sun Wheel Castle to tremble with fear and have endless fantasies, but also made Himiko, who was immersed in pain and despair, involuntarily cast her gaze toward the source of that malevolent aura.

“Yo, Hime”.

Upon seeing the source of that rapidly rising power, she instinctively called out.

However, when they truly became aware of the other party's destination, immense fear and panic almost overwhelmed them.

However, the affection he felt for the former, as well as the lingering fear of the terrifying future, still compelled him to drive this body, which had almost lost the will to resist, to move.

"No, no, Yo-hime!"

"Stop going any further! Stop defying the gods!"

"Otherwise, even you will be unable to turn back, and you will be unable to gain the world's recognition!"

"This world belongs to them, it is the world of Takamagahara!!"

Himiko, who had voluntarily sealed and restrained her divine power in order to gain the gods' forgiveness, was now powerless to stop the other party.

Leaning on the railing, she cried out hoarsely, not hesitating to offend the gods again by speaking the names of the divine court, all in an effort to save her beloved subject.

After all, she, who inherited the mysteries of the moon, is special.

At least they can guarantee their survival in this calamity, but if they directly defy the gods, then their final fate will be...

Himiko dared not even imagine it anymore!

here,

The dark clouds remained in the sky, but the lightning that roamed among them was even more intense. The silver snakes that filled the void danced wildly, tearing the entire darkness apart as if it were daytime.

"tread."

As Yao Ji approached the statue, she abruptly stopped, her gaze slowly rising upwards.

After sweeping over the majestic-looking deity, his gaze fell upon the almost hysterical Queen.

Now, where can one find the gentleness, radiance, and earlier joy and happiness on the face of this most respected queen?

What replaces all that beauty is humility, prayer, and self-pity.

I begged myself not to continue with this current state of mind.

but,

My dearest Queen

If it were merely about abandoning you, abandoning Father, and abandoning the entire Sunwheel City to live alone...

that,

What meaning is there for the rest of my life?

"My Queen,"

"Listen,"

"He, they, are watching over this land,"

"but,"

"They simply want to watch this land sink into eternal darkness!!"

Yao Ji's eyes were already filled with blood, and a clear bloodstain appeared on her soft lower lip. However, the crescent moon mark on her forehead, which she gripped tightly with her battle blade, burst forth with an indomitable and determined light amidst the sudden downpour of darkness.

Hearing the woman's resentful words, Himiko fell into a state of speechless silence. She could only watch as her beloved retainer drew closer and closer to the demon within him, until...

"You who are high and mighty, listen carefully,"

"If Sunwheel City were to fall into eternal darkness,"

"In the future, I will surely slay a god!"

"Let my blood stain the high plains, and bury my millions of people!"

The terrifying words that reached Himiko's ears caused her pupils to dilate continuously. Exhausted, she slumped against the railing, but her body began to struggle at that moment.

"Yo-hime, Yo-hime, my Yo-hime,"

"What nonsense are you spouting, Yo-hime?"

“My Lord, she didn’t mean to offend you, the child didn’t mean to offend you,”

"If anyone's to blame, blame me!!"

Her voice went from faint to trembling, then to a hoarse plea to the heavens, before finally being swallowed up by a massive bolt of lightning descending from the sky.
