Crossover: A Different Inuyasha.

Chapter 103 Kagome's Monster High School, Midori's Resurrection

At Higurashi Shrine, Kagome sat in front of her vanity, carefully drawing her eyebrows with an eyebrow pencil in front of the mirror.

She put down her eyebrow pencil, leaned closer to the mirror to examine herself for a moment, then picked up her lip gloss and lightly dabbed it on her lips. She pursed her lips, then stepped back a little to bring her entire face into the mirror.

Her eyebrows were drawn slightly lighter than usual, her lips were glossy and natural, and her cheeks had a very light touch of foundation.

Like a blooming flower, it has reached the age where it can be picked.

Kagome stared at herself in the mirror for a long time, then suddenly looked away and muttered something in a tone that she herself didn't realize was a hint of embarrassment and annoyance, "Seriously, why did I put on makeup for Inuyasha?"

"That despicable perverted dog."

While saying this, she had already picked up a comb, tidied her hair, and tilted her head left and right in front of the mirror to make sure she looked pretty before putting down the comb and standing up.

She took off her pajamas and put on a light apricot-colored dress, the hem of which fell just above her knees, revealing her smooth and shapely calves.

A narrow white belt was tied around her waist, and a thin knitted cardigan was worn over it.

Kagome picked up the small bag from the bedside table, slung it over her shoulder, checked herself one last time in the mirror, then turned around, opened the door, and walked downstairs with light steps.

In the living room, Sota Higurashi sat in front of the TV, clutching a bag of potato chips. Hearing footsteps coming from the stairs, he subconsciously turned his head to look.

"Mom, my sister is going on a date with Inuyasha!"

"You brat, what are you saying!"

Kagome's face flushed red instantly. She took two steps down the last few steps of the second floor and raised her fist, making a feint towards Sota.

Kusa chuckled and shrank back behind the sofa, but he didn't stop talking.

"I saw it all! My sister is dressed so beautifully—what else could it be but a date!"

"Remember to bring me some good food."

Just as Kagome was about to chase after her, the kitchen curtain was lifted. Kagome's mother, wearing an apron and holding a spatula, peeked into the living room, her gaze lingering on Kagome, her face beaming with a smile.

"Kagome, are you coming back for lunch?"

Kagome turned around, shook her head, and said, "No, Inuyasha said he has plans."

"That's good." Kagome's mother nodded, without asking any further questions, but added, "Be careful on the road."

"Okay."

Kagome responded, turned and walked towards the entrance, changed into a pair of low-cut leather shoes, pushed open the courtyard gate, and walked down the long steps of the shrine one by one.

Cherry blossoms fluttered down from the branches on both sides, landing on her shoulders and the tips of her hair, before being gently swept away by the wind.

At the end of the stone steps, a black motorcycle was parked under a cherry blossom tree by the roadside.

The car body gleamed with a clean metallic sheen, shimmering slightly in the sunlight.

A tall, slender figure leaned against the car—Inuyasha, wearing a light gray casual jacket over a white crew-neck shirt, and black trousers that made his figure appear even more agile.

A few strands of his long, black hair were blown by the wind. He looked up and watched as the girl walked briskly down the stone steps and then leaped into the air.

Like a flower that has bloomed in the wind.

Youthful and beautiful.

Unbelievably beautiful.

If I hadn't caught her, she would have fallen and been in a lot of pain, right?

Imagining the girl's bruised and swollen face, Inuyasha smiled and opened his arms.

As Kagome fell into his arms, her skirt was still swaying, revealing a glimpse of her fair skin.

She tilted her head back, her face as radiant as a peach blossom, her large eyes blinking brightly. "Have you been waiting long?"

"Just arrived."

Inuyasha kissed the girl's forehead, then let go and casually handed her the helmet hanging on the handlebars.

Kagome took the helmet, then looked up at Inuyasha as the spring sunlight fell on his shoulders and hair, gilding his features with a warm gold.

She couldn't help but glance at him a few more times, then looked away, fastened her helmet strap, climbed onto the back seat, and reached out to put her arm around his waist.

The engine gave a low hum, and the motorcycle sped off along the road strewn with fallen cherry blossoms.

There are always three or four days each month when Inuyasha takes a break from the Eastern Country and returns to the Higurashi Shrine in the modern world to spend some quality time with his girlfriend.

Occasionally, when Kagome has a day off, she will use the teleportation array that Inuyasha set up on the Sacred Tree to come to the Ruri Shrine, where she learns a lot about Inuyasha.

Kagome didn't act like an ordinary woman, making a scene or doing anything foolish.

Instead, she quickly adapted and took the opportunity to sign many "unequal treaties" with Inuyasha, such as "not being allowed to fall in love with someone else in the modern world, and only being able to love her."

Inuyasha naturally wouldn't refuse such a simple request.

The motorcycle traveled along the coastal highway for a while, then turned into the city and stopped at the entrance of a pedestrian street.

The two walked slowly side by side along the street, like any ordinary couple.

Kagome walked on the outside, while Inuyasha leaned against the side of the shop, taking much slower steps than usual to match her pace.

She would occasionally stop in front of a shop window, bend down to look at the small items displayed inside, or comment on the color of a piece of clothing. He would not urge her, but stand aside and wait, occasionally responding, or occasionally reaching out to help her brush away the strands of hair that were blown in front of her eyes by the wind.

Over the years, Inuyasha had given her many gold and silver jewelry gifts, but the girl still preferred exquisite and practical items.

Aside from accompanying him to some formal occasions, she usually dresses simply and elegantly.

Kagome picked out a pair of very small glass earrings in a grocery store. They were light blue, like two drops of frozen rain.

Inuyasha glanced at it, paid directly, and casually took the small paper bag from the shop assistant, handing it to her.

"I have my own money."

Kagome muttered something.

"What's mine is still yours." Inuyasha withdrew his hand and continued walking forward.

Kagome clutched the small paper bag, her ears turning red again. She quickly caught up with him, stuffed the paper bag into her purse, and didn't say anything more about refusing.

When I came out after watching a movie, it was already dark.

Kagome was carrying a bucket of popcorn that she hadn't finished eating. She kept popping it into her mouth as she walked, her gaze falling on the entrance of a restaurant with warm yellow lights on the side of the road.

Inuyasha followed her gaze and saw a couples' restaurant. A row of potted plants illuminated by warm light stood at the entrance, and small heart-shaped decorations adorned the glass windows. Several couples were already seated inside.

"You're hungry again already after just eating?"

"This girl has two stomachs!"

Kagome turned around and glared at Inuyasha before stepping inside.

Inuyasha followed with a smile.

The restaurant's interior appeared more spacious than its exterior, with dim lighting and a small candlestick on each table, the flames flickering among the cups, saucers, and cutlery.

The two were led to a seat by the window, where a light-colored tablecloth was laid out and a trimmed white rose was placed on the table.

After ordering, the waiter brought over two drinks.

Kagome's drink was a light pink fruit drink with a thin slice of lemon on the rim, while Inuyasha's was an iced green tea.

He took a sip from the cup, put it back on the table, and called out to the girl, "Kagome."

"Um?"

Kagome was stirring the fruit in her cup with a straw when she heard this. She looked up, still holding the straw in her mouth, and stared at him with bright eyes.

"It's almost April, do you want to go to Yokai High School?"

Kagome blinked. "A demon high school? — Like those schools in anime, schools specifically for demons?"

"almost."

Inuyasha explained.

"I recently discovered a new world where there is a yokai school built to help yokai adapt to human society. It has an educational level that is no less than that of humans, and there are all kinds of extracurricular activities in the school."

He lowered his voice and said, "Humans are forbidden from entering the academy. If a human is found, they will be killed without exception."

"Students are also not allowed to reveal their true forms on campus and can only live in human form. Since the academy only has monsters, there are many problem students."

Inuyasha was referring to Yokai Academy from Rosario + Vampire.

The strongest fighter in the story is the ancient vampire Alcard, who nearly destroyed humanity single-handedly in the past. He absorbed countless demons and became a giant monster.

It turned the continent into a sea of ​​fire in 7 days, and was eventually defeated and sealed by the three Hades Kings.

This superior refining material is perfect for accompanying Naraku, as they are integrated into the Chaos Pearl to enhance its inherent value.

"It doesn't sound like I want to go." Kagome wanted to spend her wonderful high school life with her best friends and didn't want to get into any trouble.

That's such a pity.

Inuyasha looked regretful. "I wanted to go there and be a teacher."

"I've heard that there are quite a few stunningly beautiful female monster students at that school."

With a "bang".

Kagome slammed her hand on the table and stood up, her head bowed, her bangs obscuring half her face, and a sea of ​​fire seemed to erupt behind her.

"You bastard—"

"Fine, I'll go!"

Inuyasha said with a smile, "This was your own choice."

"asshole"

Kagome glared angrily at Inuyasha, when a messenger came to mediate.

"Please keep quiet, guest."

Kagome sat down, her face flushed, and turned her head away, her gaze falling on the diverse crowd under the streetlights outside the window. At this moment, she had no intention of paying attention to the face opposite her that made her both angry and annoyed.

I always have to annoy her a little.

She's a girl who needs to be loved too.

unacceptable.

Inuyasha looked at her puffed-up profile and spoke in a light tone.

"Don't you want to know why I would want you to go when there are beautiful monster students there? I'm better off acting alone."

His words piqued Kagome's curiosity. As the waiter brought the food, she snorted, "Say what you want to say. I don't want to hear your excuses anyway."

"One reason is that I want to spend more time with you."

Inuyasha's cheesy talk.

"Besides, with you here, how could I possibly look at those ordinary, vulgar women?"

Kagome, who was pleased with the compliments, would have been wagging her tail if she had one. "—You're so glib. I've seen you fool a lot of naive girls."

Inuyasha looked at her forced smile, her eyebrows practically screaming "happiness," and asked, "So, do you count?"

"You came to propose marriage when I was a child, wouldn't you say that counts?"

Kagome glared at Inuyasha, "You took me out in the middle of the night, riding a cloud dragon for a ride in the sky, you lolicon!"

"What?" Inuyasha crossed his arms in front of him, striking a "no" pose. "It's just that the person I like happens to be a loli."

"Ew—this is even more vulgar!"

"It hasn't even started yet!"

Inuyasha's meaningful words left Kagome speechless, unable to utter a single word of the phrases she usually used to retort to him. She could only stammer and lower her head.

Seeing that Kagome had lost her offensive power, he naturally changed the subject and returned to the main business, "Besides keeping me company, you will also have several other shrine maidens with you in high school to complete the mission of dominating the academy."

"Huh? Domination Academy?"

This confused Kagome. "I'm in high school, aren't I?"

"The monsters over there have no respect for humans. The shrine maiden beat up the old ones, and you led the people to beat up the young ones. At least you didn't learn spirit magic for nothing."

Inuyasha spoke calmly, as if he could see Kagome dominating the demon academy, "After the mission is over, you can come back to school. You can choose any school in Tokyo you want."

"In no more than three months, you can come back and continue enjoying high school life."

"Wouldn't it be simpler for you to take action?"

Kagome made a gesture of drawing a bow and arrow, "Or let Kaede and Kikyo take action, and it'll be over in a flash."

"Why use a sledgehammer to crack a nut?"

Inuyasha waved his hand, "Those guys are perfect for you to practice on."

"That's exactly the kind of talk a villain would say."

Kagome muttered a comment, then noticed a dangerous glint in Er Gouzi's eyes. She immediately lowered her head and continued eating.

Deep within a side hall of the Ruri Shrine stands a transparent petri dish about half the height of a person.

The vessel's walls are polished from crystal refined by spiritual energy, making it crystal clear throughout.

The interior is filled with a pale blue nutrient solution, the surface of which is as calm as a mirror, with an occasional string of extremely fine bubbles slowly rising from the bottom, swaying slightly as they ascend.

At this moment, a female figure is quietly suspended in the petri dish.

Her face was serene and peaceful, her hands were folded in front of her, her waist was slender yet powerful, and her skin was as delicate as new porcelain.

Two years ago, the witch Rito and Chunlan and others accepted this mission from Inuyasha.

Near the village of exorcists, the research team found the remains of Midori after her battle with the monster, within the seals and barriers.

Li Tao repeatedly examined the skeleton and extracted active factors related to Cui Zi.

Afterwards, they connected those factors into the magic array, nurtured them with blood jade and spiritual power alternately, and repeatedly screened them, eventually eliminating all impurities and leaving the purest factors.

Thus, a complete body was constructed, identical to that of Midori in life.

The sound of the door being pushed open broke the silence of the side hall, and Kikyo stepped inside, holding the Shikon Jewel in her palm.

This precious jade is no longer the purple it once was.

After being burned by Inuyasha's azure flames, the demon soul inside the body was completely burned away, and now it has a transparent, glass-like texture, warm and clear. When sunlight passes through it, it refracts into tiny rainbows, like a crystal that has been repeatedly polished, clean and untouched by dust.

When held in the palm of your hand, you can clearly sense a quiet and pure soul beneath its smooth surface.

"I never imagined I would be resurrected." A gentle voice came from inside the jade, it was Cui Zi who sighed.

"The initial balance between humans and yokai was built on the foundation laid by our predecessors."

Kikyo stood in front of the petri dish and held the jade up to her eyes. "Now that humans and demons can live under the same roof, you naturally have the right to see this peace with your own eyes."

"At the same time, as the world develops, we need the existence of our predecessors even more."

"How modest."

A halo of light rose from inside the bead, and Midori appeared in the light. "Although we haven't fought, I can sense a dangerous aura emanating from you, as well as from your sister Kaede."

"Modern people are truly remarkable," she said, recalling the silver-haired half-demon who was as radiant as the sun.

Intense and grand.

Like a sun god descended to earth, he brings both hope and destruction to all living beings.

It burned away countless monsters that she could not destroy in an instant, and even had the power to protect her inside.

This powerful demon is the reason why the once strongest priestess refused to reincarnate.

If Inuyasha were to fall into depravity, Midori couldn't even imagine how she could restrain him. But there were still ways to do so.

Looking at Kikyo, who was no longer a pure virgin, she sighed softly.

If the other party is mutually in love, how can one possibly judge that?

"I'm going."

In the next instant, Midori transformed into a soft stream of light and drifted toward the petri dish.

The light stream penetrated the crystal dish wall, entered the pale blue nutrient solution, and merged into the body.

Soon, Cui Zi's eyelids twitched slightly, and then she opened her eyes.

His eyes were clean and clear, as if he had just woken up from a long dream.

The liquid in the petri dish began to drain from the bottom, making a low, rumbling sound.

The water receded along Cui Zi's slender and graceful figure, leaving thin streaks of water on her shoulders and waist.

As Midori stood still, a soft light shone from the bottom up on the dish, then slowly cracked open from the center, sliding to both sides, letting in moist air that brushed against Midori's bare shoulders and cheeks.

The light pierced through the still-wet air, drawing delicate streaks of rainbow in the air, and casting a soft, bright halo along the edges of her damp hair and slightly moist skin.

Sacred and untouched by dust.

Luckily I rejected Inuyasha, otherwise—”

With a thought, Kikyo unfolded a neatly folded shrine maiden's outfit in her hand, which was adorned with a spatial ring. The outfit consisted of white robes and crimson hakama, with only red patterns embellishing the edge of the collar.

It's exactly the same as what's on her.

This is an outfit worn only by the head priestess of the Ruri Shrine who has reached the level of "Transformation Celestial Venerable".

The entire shrine, including the current Midori, only has four people: Kaede, the recently resurrected Kanade, and herself.

The other priestesses, such as Lan and Asagi, lacked the talent and foundation to become temple priestesses. They still needed the help of external forces such as faith or magic to become temple priestesses.

Kikyo handed the clothes to Midori, saying, "Senior, this time you're leading the team to Yokai Academy, so please keep an eye on your juniors."

"Also, be careful of Inuyasha."
