Charlotte: What's going on now? Did we really misunderstand Mr. Kurosawa?
[Diluc: It seems the relief supplies were real, and the embezzlement was also real, but someone else embezzled them.]
Wendy: I reckon out of all these people, only Mr. Kurosawa actually distributed the food.
[Navia: Then what about this pile of IOUs? Surely the warriors of the Heavenly Territory aren't so poor that they can't afford anything?]
[Ying: A whole box of IOUs, that's way too much!]
Ying didn't dwell on the treasure-hunting group.
Instead, they went to the grocery store.
I'd like to ask why Kurosawa has accumulated so much debt.
Ying showed the box to the grocery store owner.
The shop owner chuckled.
"So you're Mr. Kurosawa's friend. Are you here to pay off Mr. Kurosawa's debts?"
Ying shook her head; she just wanted to know the origin of these IOUs.
Why does Kurosawa owe so much money?
Did you buy something expensive?
The shop owner thought for a while.
Replied.
"Mr. Kurosawa regularly buys large quantities of food from us, but he uses his own salary to do so."
“Recently, food prices have risen, and Mr. Kurosawa’s own salary is no longer enough.”
"He started giving us IOUs, exchanging them for an equal amount of grain."
So this is the source of the 'relief food'.
Paimon asked.
Since grain prices have gone up, why not just buy less?
The shop owner, however, said...
These are the people's life-saving food supplies, so naturally they must be used sparingly.
Mr. Kurosawa believes that a sudden reduction would disappoint them.
However, these people are not grateful to Kurosawa at the moment.
Instead, they blamed him.
[Erhesen: If he wanted to do this, he should have been open and honest from the beginning.]
[Kavi: But if we reveal that it's a personal purchase, some people who don't want to owe Mr. Kurosawa a favor or trouble him will face the predicament of going hungry.]
[Paimon: Do people like that really exist?]
[Lisa: Yes, little Paimon. Think about it, if your meals were all saved up by the travelers, and you ate them, she would go hungry for a day. Would you eat them all yourself?]
Paimon: No...
The shop owner didn't understand why Mr. Kurosawa would do something so thankless.
However, if the debt cannot be repaid.
He's going to sell his knife to pay off his debts.
It is said that the knife was left to him by his father.
The two returned to Kurosawa.
I told him the truth.
He couldn't believe that he used to be this kind of person.
He can't understand this kind of emotion now.
However, just now, when I grabbed the knife to chase people away...
He could feel his body instinctively resisting.
It's a knife again.
Ying asked him about the story of the knife.
"This knife used to be my father's sword."
Kurosawa recounted the origin of the sword.
But it stopped at the most crucial point.
He couldn't remember what his father had said.
"After the Eye of God was taken away, it seems I've forgotten many important things."
"My memory is mostly blank; no matter how hard I try, I can't recall it."
Kurosawa reached out to touch the knife.
"I only remember my father saying that his life's motto was written on this knife."
"And before he left this world, he personally handed the knife to me."
Ying looked at the knife.
It seems that the words "benevolence and righteousness" are engraved on it.
Speaking of these two words.
Kurosawa seemed to remember something.
That desire to make others happy, even if it means incurring heavy debts.
[Erhesen: They look so alike, they're practically identical]
[Tinari: Indeed...]
[Sino: Agreed]
[Kavi: What are you guys suddenly saying?]
In the video.
Kurosawa suddenly became angry.
He practiced benevolence and righteousness himself.
What was the result?
He turned his back.
“The Heavenly Ruler has taken away my God’s Eye. And those I have saved are unwilling to understand me.”
"The most ironic thing is that I felt heartache when I drew my sword at them."
"I can't be a good person, I can't even be a bad person, what... what should I do?"
Regarding Kurosawa's predicament.
Yingmei was truly at her wit's end.
However, the matter of the IOU can be resolved by the company magistrate.
Before setting off, the two went to find a third person.
He was a swordsman.
After mastering swordsmanship on his own.
He has defeated many famous swordsmen in succession.
They have never been defeated.
His goal is to become the best in the world.
However, ever since the Eye of God was taken away...
His personality suddenly changed drastically.
Not only does he often say strange things.
They even forbade their apprentices from practicing swordsmanship.
This is too bizarre.
His disciples all thought he was possessed by an evil spirit.
So they asked Ying to find someone from Narukami Taisha to exorcise the evil spirit.
On the way, Ying encountered a suspicious-looking person.
It was from him that Ying and Paimon learned the truth.
This swordsman has reached the pinnacle of his goal of becoming the best swordsman in the world.
Therefore, his divine eye is very likely related to this goal.
as predicted.
The group led the swordsman to Narukami Shrine.
Yae no Miko told the truth.
It is difficult for ordinary people to achieve true "stillness and clarity of mind".
It's simply a matter of being obsessed with the goal of being "the best in the world".
I just suppressed my other emotions.
So after the Eye of God was taken away, this goal was no longer there.
All emotions erupted.
That's what led to his current wretched state.
Finally, with the help of his apprentices, the swordsman resolved his inner conflict.
