Infinite Transmigration Starting from Violet

—It can turn into water.

"To protect Ashina... I am willing to give up being human!"

Genichiro forced himself to stand up and stared intently at Lu Ye and the wolf.

"Shall we fight again?" The wolf drew his knife.

But Lu Ye didn't make any move. He just took a deep breath and then sighed.

The sun had set, night had fallen, and the air was chilly.

What kind of fate can an abandoned orphan expect?

Yongzhen was found by a gorilla and given to Daoxuan to raise as a doctor.

Sekiro was found by Owl and trained to be a ninja.

Genichiro was adopted by Isshin Ashina and regarded as the future of Ashina.

He did more than just inherit the surname of the sword saint Isshin Ashina.

He is even expected to inherit the mantle of the sword saint Isshin Ashina.

How could a child who lost everything in the war possibly imagine such good fortune?

Genichiro considers Ashina Country his everything simply because of this debt of gratitude.

But only power can protect what we cherish.

So for so many years, Genichiro has been working hard, no matter what the cost.

“If you drink this, your eyes will turn red,” Lu Ye said. “You know about Daoze’s experiments, right?”

"So what?" Genichiro laughed coldly. "The reason Ashina is Ashina of the Ashina people is because my grandfather's name is renowned throughout the world and protects Ashina."

However, my grandfather is old and no longer as mighty as he once was. Various forces are stirring, and the Imperial Household is preparing to invade. The day my grandfather passes away will be the day Ashina is destroyed!

So... even if I become red-eyed, so what? If heretical power is useful to Ashina, what does honor matter... If I can become stronger simply by abandoning my principles, then who else but me?!" Genichiro let out a beast-like growl from his throat.

Despite his doubled efforts, Genichiro did not achieve early success.

No matter how hard one tries, the highest achievement a person can attain still depends on their talent.

Take Lu Ye for example. Although the Sword Manual increased his sword learning speed by 100%, the fact that he could master swordsmanship to this level in just over ten days is enough to prove that Lu Ye originally had good swordsmanship talent.

In the battle just now, Genichiro's moves showed no trace of the Ashina style.

Isshin Ashina had long seen that Genichiro wasn't cut out for martial arts. Learning the Ashina style wouldn't make him successful; he should learn the large-scale battlefield tactics of the Oni-gyobu style. He'd be better suited to be a general or a ruler.

However, Genichiro was a very hardworking person. He realized that he was less talented because he had been abandoned by Isshin, but he refused to give up. His swordsmanship was only so-so, so he practiced archery. When his archery skills could not be improved, he learned heretical techniques from Tomoe, a follower of the previous generation of the Dragon's Blood.

In an era where power can acquire everything, one's own talents are limited. This fact is too cruel for Genichiro, who only wants to protect the country. That's why he went so far as to have Doshun develop the Rejuvenating Water in search of the power of immortality.

But no one can blame Genichiro, no one can blame his sincere heart.

Because for Ashina at this moment, only the power of immortality can save it.

Genichiro had nowhere left to retreat...

No, it's that Ashina has nowhere left to retreat.

Lu Ye stared at the man in front of him, who had been driven to the brink of despair, and fell into thought.

If Genichiro were to take the Transformation Sludge here, things would become quite troublesome.

According to the game's storyline, Genichiro would become an invincible red-eyed being after drinking it, but that was the Rejuvenating Water that Doshun had researched for three years. Now that Doshun has been killed by him, the effectiveness of the Rejuvenating Water is questionable.

To become a red-eyed person is either to lose one's rationality or to have one's temperament become extremely extreme due to one's thoughts.

Either way, it's quite disadvantageous for Lu Ye.

Killing Isshin's grandson, not to mention Isshin's own reaction, the generals and soldiers in Ashina Castle would probably not let Lu Ye leave Ashina Castle alive.

After all, Genichiro is now the heir apparent of Ashina Castle. After Isshin's death, Genichiro will be the one to inherit Ashina. With the heir apparent gone, everyone in Ashina Castle will probably be in a panic. Moreover, if the Ministry's spies in Ashina find out about this, it will cause the final battle to break out prematurely.

What will happen to Violet, who is suffering from dragon cough, then?

At least for now, in Ashina Castle, there is still Yongzhen, the apprentice of the peerless healer Daoxuan, who is helping Violet alleviate her condition.

Therefore, Genichiro cannot die, at least not now.

Genichiro's goal is Ashina, which doesn't actually conflict with his ultimate goal... killing the Divine Dragon.

Therefore, there should be a compromise.

It can save both Ashina and Violet.

In a brief moment of thought, Lu Ye thought of a huge figure.

Humans have an instinctive fear of large objects.

Since it's all heretical power, let me make use of it.

“I understand…” Lu Ye sheathed his knife.

"What do you mean?" Genichiro was puzzled. Did this guy not want to fight anymore?

"Throw that thing away. You want the Dragon's Blood just to protect Ashina. I'll help you with that."

"you?"

"You can trust me... How about this, you listen to my terms and then make a decision, okay?"

Lu Ye turned around and patted the wolf's arm: "Go down, your master is still waiting for you."

Genichiro stared at Lu Ye and the wolf's retreating figures, his eyes filled with confusion.

Although his feet are immobile, he still has a bow and arrows in his hands. Why would he expose his back like this?

He glanced at the shards of metal in his hand, hesitated for a moment, but still forced himself to stand up and followed.

……

The prince's residence.

"Let's do it this way then. Does anyone have any objections?" Jiulang's gaze swept over everyone present.

No one said a word, not even Genichiro.

“In that case, let’s do it my way,” Lu Ye said. “If there’s nothing else, I’ll go and rest.”

A settlement solution has been found.

Lu Ye will defeat the Inner Court within two days, and in exchange, Jiu Lang will stay by Genichiro's side.

This seems like an impossible task.

But Jiulang accepted it.

Genichiro naturally had no reason to refuse. After all, in this way, regardless of whether Lu Ye could complete the mission, Kuro would be under his control. And if Lu Ye could really defeat the Inner Court, then he would naturally no longer need to control Kuro.

Therefore, the key lies with Lu Ye.

However, Lu Ye did not disclose the specific plans.

because……

Using non-human creatures to stop the inner court's attack seems like an extremely crazy and incomprehensible thing.

But Lu Ye knew that this was the only way to succeed. Ashina's forces alone were no match for the Interior Ministry, as they were at a disadvantage in terms of both military equipment and numbers. That's why Genichiro had no other choice but to turn his attention to the Dragon's Blood.

The immortal giant ape that Lu Ye encountered in the village earlier was called the Lion Ape.

It lives in the deep valley of Ashina, where the water source is directly flowing down from Fountainhead Palace and is extremely pure. The Guardian Ape drank the water there for a long time, which caused its body to be possessed by "insects" in the water, making it a "insect-possessed" beast.

With its power, we can defeat the inner court.

……

After the discussion, everyone prepared to leave.

Genichiro's leg injury was treated by Emma, ​​and he is currently fine.

Kuro generously gave Violet her prince's quarters as a place to recuperate, since there was no better place to stay in the entire Ashina Castle.

“Well then, my lord, let’s go,” Genichiro said.

"Well, Genichiro-sensei, I'll be troubling you for the next couple of days."

Accompanied by the wolf, Jiulang walked towards the exit.

When he reached the door, Lu Ye called out to him.

"Um... thank you."

"What are you referring to?" Jiulang turned around.

"Whether it's signing the Dragon's Blood Contract with me or trusting me to reach an agreement with Genichiro... thank you for everything."

"It's alright, just don't disappoint me... stranger."

After saying those words, Jiulang left without looking back.

"Then I'll take my leave too." Yongzhen nodded slightly.

On the way out of the castle tower, Genichiro, who was limping, attracted attention, but he did not care about the stares of others. Instead, he asked the young prince beside him.

"Do you really believe he has a way to defeat the Imperial Guard?"

"Ah."

"What's the reason?"

"Kimi Ichiro, do you know anything about airplanes and cars?"

"What is that?"

“It is a very magical thing. Lord Lu comes from a distant and magical country. If it is him, he will definitely have a way.”

"Ha, how naive. What if it's an identity and a lie he made up to deceive everyone?"

"No, Genichiro-sama, didn't you see the girl lying in the cubicle?"

“A girl with blonde hair,” Genichiro said. “My subordinates, the Yotaka, reported this to me, but I haven’t seen her in person.”

“That girl is someone His Excellency values ​​highly; he will not abandon her.”

Kuro recalled the battle in the underground shrine that night. That figure who rose again after being killed countless times, facing the flames of the firebird, shielding the girl behind him with his blade as he slashed down…
