Question, Understand, Become a Holy Lord

"Tsk, are you here for Ryougi Shiki too?" Aozaki Touko was quite unhappy with Baihen's attitude, but she could do nothing about Baihen, so she had to change the subject.

If there is anything in this hospital that is worthy of Bai Hen's personal visit, in Aozaki Touko's opinion, it can only be Ryougi Shiki, the work of the Yoji family. The two personalities that should have died together were successfully saved by the sacrifice of one of them, which is equivalent to Ryougi Shiki coming back to life, and there is huge value in her.

Aozaki Touko also came here specifically to observe Ryougi Shiki.

"Yes and no." Bai Hen's ambiguous words still made Aozaki Touko angry, so she simply followed him to see what else he was going to do.

"This is the ward where the little girl from the Wu Tiao family is staying. You really have a wide range of interests." Aozaki Touko looked at the direction Bai Hen was heading and suddenly understood, and said with some sarcasm.

Having lived in Guanbuzi City for some time, she naturally knew about the major magic families here. She also knew the ways to the roots of these families and the whereabouts of the main members. That was why she was able to appear in this hospital at the time when Ryougi Shiki was about to wake up.

"What's wrong? Are you jealous?" Bai Hen took out a fruit plate and knocked on the door of Wu Tiao Wuhui's ward.

"Please come in." Wu Tiao Wuhui's ethereal voice came from the room.

"Where did you get this fruit basket?... Forget it, just pretend I didn't ask. I'll go find Ryougi Shiki first." Aozaki Touko thought about it and decided not to know too much, so she stopped talking decisively.

"Mr. Bai Hen? After a long time no see, you finally come to visit me again. Is this the destined moment you mentioned?" Wu Tiao Wuhui pretended to be surprised and looked at Bai Hen pushing the door open, and put the fruit basket in his hand on her bedside.

"Don't pretend to be surprised. I know you better than you think. Just be happy." Bai Hen took an apple from the fruit basket and started peeling it.

"Yes." Since Bai Hen had pointed it out, Wu Tiao Wuhui no longer hid her true nature. An illusory spirit overflowed from her body and stared at Bai Hen with an excited and excited expression.

"This is the first time I see you in person..." Wujo Kirie said happily.

Wu Tiao Wuhui had seen Bai Hen's appearance countless times on various billboards and TV shows, various appearances of Bai Hen, but she had never thought of meeting Bai Hen in person with this body.

Wu Tiao Wuhui was afraid and uneasy, expectant but timid. Unable to make up her mind, she had to look forward to the moment of destiny's guidance as mentioned by Bai Hen. Now she had finally waited for it.

"Well... it's not quite right to say it's a destined moment. I just came to see you today." Bai Hen put the peeled apple aside. Wu Tiao Wuhui, who was in spirit state, had no way to eat.

The so-called guidance of fate was just something he said casually. For Bai Hen, as long as he wanted, every moment would be a moment when fate would gather.

"So, I can see you again in the future?" Wu Tiao Wuhui did not feel sad because she was just a bystander, but became even happier.

"Yes. I'm leaving first. Remember to eat the apple." Bai Hen stood up. Ryougi Shiki had already woken up, and it was time to get down to business.

"Yes." Wu Tiao Wuhui answered a little disappointedly. The time was really too short. She wanted to spend a little more time with Bai Hen.

"Ryougi Shiki..." Mujo Kirie's gaze was dimly fixed in the direction of Ryougi Shiki's ward, her eyes dark and unclear.

"How was the chat going, Orange, Shiki?" Bai Hen walked into Ryougi Shiki's ward and greeted her in the face of Aozaki Orange's annoyed gaze and Ryougi Shiki's suspicious gaze.

"Who are you?" Ryougi Shiki asked Bai Hen in a hollow voice, her beautiful eyes fixed on Bai Hen. She naturally recognized Bai Hen's face, but she was not asking such superficial questions.

"I can't see the line..." After Ryougi Shiki awakened, the "Mystic Eyes of Death Perception" naturally awakened in her body. The death lines of all things in the world would all appear in her eyes. As long as that "death line" was destroyed, anything could be easily killed.

This is what Aozaki Touko told her, and it was also what she had experienced personally, but the man in front of her was flawless in Ryougi Shiki's eyes. He was the only intact thing in the divided world in Ryougi Shiki's eyes.

And for some reason, when she saw Baihen, Ryougi Shiki could clearly feel that something seemed to be pouring out of the emptiness in her heart. The strong and strange impulse made her at a loss.

"Just a fortune teller passing by." Bai Hen answered readily.

"You guy, do you have no death line on your body? What kind of monster are you?" Aozaki Touko saw that there seemed to be something wrong with Ryougi Shiki's condition, and a bold guess came out of her mouth.

"It's just a..."

"Just a fortune teller passing by, right? Ha, bah." Aozaki Touko rolled her eyes and interrupted Bai Hen.

"You, what is your purpose? Kanbuko's mother once found me and told me about you. Now Ryougi Ori is gone, and Shiki has successfully awakened and awakened the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception. What is your purpose?"

According to what Aozaki Touko had imagined, at this moment she should have taken a deep puff of her cigarette, exhaled a smoke ring, and slowly said these words to Bai Hen. However, due to Bai Hen's smoking ban and the magical pink remote control, she hadn't smoked for a long time. Without cigarettes, she always felt that something was missing in this situation.

"You, have you seen Ori?" Ryougi Shiki's pupils constricted after hearing what Aozaki Touko said.

"I have. I was the one who told Guan Buzi's mother about Zhi's death. After learning the news of his own death, he was actually very relieved. He was happy that he could leave behind a beautiful dream." Bai Hen told the truth.

"Why don't you save...save him?" Ryougi Shiki knew that her accusation might be rude, but she couldn't help but say it.

"This is a necessary sacrifice." Bai Hen had no intention of hiding it.

"Kanbuko's mother told me that she was powerless and could not change Zhi's fate." Aozaki Touko was afraid that Ryougi Shiki would do something irrational, so she quickly added.

"Is that so..." Ryougi Shiki lowered her head, her long hair covering her face so that her expression could not be seen.

"What on earth are you doing here, man?" Aozaki Touko has never understood what Bai Hen's purpose is. He seemed to have appeared out of nowhere in Guanbuzi City, and his footprints here were almost zero. At least Aozaki Touko mobilized all his connections but couldn't find any clues about Bai Hen's origins.

It only took him one month to become a household name in Kanbushi City after he appeared there. Now, two years later, he is the most famous person in Japan.

In Japan, you may not know who the Prime Minister is, but you will definitely know the name of Baihen. Even if you have no interest in divination or Baihen, you will be forced to know because everyone is discussing it. Otherwise, you will be isolated and bullied. This is the current situation in Japan.

Because Bai Hen caused such a big fuss, Aozaki Orange knew that even the Clock Tower and the Cathedral Church had sent people to investigate Bai Hen. Aozaki Orange didn't know what happened in between, but the final result was that Bai Hen still appeared on TV day after day, without even a single day's delay in his schedule.

No matter how Aozaki Touko looks at it, Bai Hen seems to be the kind of guy with a huge conspiracy. However, according to the investigation of Aozaki Touko and Guan Buzi's mother, what Bai Hen has done most in the past two years is to suddenly appear in front of beautiful women to tell fortunes for them for free and talk about life. He is just like a fraudster who cheats people out of money and sex.

The investigation into Baihen yielded no results. Instead, during the investigation of Ryougi Shiki, Aozaki Touko unexpectedly discovered traces of her old classmate, Araya Soren, which surprised her even more.

Compared to what the dull and old-fashioned standard magician Araya Soren would do, Bai Hen would seem so harmless even if he was just cheating people for money and sex, not to mention that Bai Hen has not yet developed to that stage.

But in Aozaki Touko's heart, Baihen is still the most dangerous. Araya Soren's purpose is nothing more than to target the Ryogi family's ritual leading to the root, but Baihen's purpose remains a mystery to this day. Unknown things always make people feel more frightened.

"Is my purpose hard to understand? I have never concealed my actions over the years. You should read more Sherlock Holmes and Detective Conan to learn some reasoning skills or expand your thinking. You can't just work in isolation."

"You guy! Apart from going on TV shows every day, cheating on young girls and married women, and torturing me whenever you have nothing to do, what else have you done?!" Aozaki Touko couldn't help getting angry when she said this. That remote control was simply too outrageous, so outrageous that even a magician like her felt it was inhumane!

"Isn't this clear? Isn't my goal to save human beings who are about to fall into suffering from dire straits?" Bai Hen asked curiously.

"Isn't your definition of human beings too narrow?! And according to what you said, I should also be considered a beauty, why are you targeting me alone?!" If she couldn't win, Aozaki Touko would have taken action long ago.

"Correction, I'm not targeting you alone. I just happen to be having fun with you." Bai Hen added fuel to the already precarious psychological defense of Aozaki Touko.

"So you are here to save me? Sorry, I don't need you." Ryougi Shiki's voice pulled Aozaki Touko, who was about to explode, back from the brink of sanity.

"I know. Goodbye then." Ryougi Shiki was about to be discharged from the hospital, and Bai Hen didn't bother to bring a fruit basket. He just left after a simple greeting, leaving Aozaki Touko feeling confused.

"He... forget it. At the moment, he doesn't seem to have any ill intentions. We can only try to be careful. Although there is a high probability that we won't be able to stop him from doing anything." Aozaki Touko said helplessly to Ryougi Shiki.

Ryougi Shiki did not respond to Aozaki Touko's words, but just touched her heart blankly. After Baihen left, the instinctive throbbing disappeared, and the huge emptiness caused by Zhi's disappearance filled her body again.

Ryougi Shiki knew that her fate and Baihen's would be intertwined again in the future, and perhaps all the truth would be revealed only after that.

At this moment, Bai Hen, who had already stepped out of the hospital gate, suddenly heard the phone in his bag ring. Bai Hen took out this old communication device and answered the call.

"Mr. Baihen, um... I seem to have done something bad. I accidentally killed several people who wanted to approach me." Asagami Fujino's slightly uneasy voice came from the phone.

"I'll come to you right away, just wait for me." Bai Hen comforted him.

"Yes!" After hanging up the phone, a sweet smile appeared on Asagami Fujino's blood-stained cheek, and she hummed a song happily.

Chapter 214 The spiral of contradictions interweaves here

Ogawa Apartment, where Araya Soren conducted an experiment. This experiment had no meaning for his behavior of reaching the root cause, it was just Araya's personal interest. He just wanted to see whether there would be errors in the fate of human death after being repeated many times.

"Even if the way a person dies is predetermined, if the same ending is repeated thousands of times, there will be errors in the spiral. Even if the error is a very small accident, it doesn't matter. The misfortune of being run over by a car on the way home from get off work is also good - despite this, the result is still the same. Two hundred uninterrupted repetitions only made me realize the fact that human destiny cannot be changed."

This was Araya Soren's reason. To him, this was just an entertainment before seizing Ryougi Shiki's body. He would not feel happy if he succeeded, nor would he feel disappointed if he failed. It was a pleasant surprise for him that Yan Tiaoba, a casually arranged puppet, could unexpectedly lure Ryougi Shiki here.

Ryougi Shiki successively encountered and defeated the three chess pieces he had arranged: "The one with a floating double body that depends on death" - Mujo Kirie; "The one who is existentially uncomfortable and comes into contact with death and enjoys it" - Asagami Fujino; and "The one who escapes death and awakens the origin of himself" - Shirazumi Rio.

Although the process was a little different from what he had originally planned because of the fortune teller named Baihen, fortunately, the last two rituals still clashed with them and thus embarked on the path arranged for him by Araya Soren.

However, compared to the minor accidents that happened in the previous process, Araya Souren now discovered a bigger accident, that is, the threat posed to him by Ryougi Shiki, who had awakened the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, was greater than expected. Now, let alone occupying Ryougi Shiki's body, even how to defeat her has become a problem.

"It has come to this, can't you tell me your purpose?" Aozaki Touko, who was standing outside Ogawa's apartment with Bai Hen, turned her head to look at Bai Hen. She had witnessed with her own eyes how Mujo Kirie and Asagami Fujino went crazy because of this guy.

Wujo Kirie is still okay, but even she doesn't want to face Asagami Fujino's jewel-level twisted magic eye. This small city of Kanbushi is full of talents, including Asagami Fujino with "jewel-level" magic eyes, Ryougi Shiki with "rainbow-level" magic eyes, Kanbushi's mother with "unparalleled future vision", and Shirajun Rio who has awakened her origin, etc. Aozaki Touko even regretted why she chose this place in the first place.

"Everything you see is my purpose." Facing Aozaki Touko's questioning, Bai Hen gave the same answer as always.

"But if I really want to talk about the core purpose... I actually came here to help someone give birth, and then I discovered this place, this place, this time, it's really a perfect ceremony." Bai Hen sighed as he looked at Ogawa's apartment. Hearing this, Aozaki Touko showed a constipated expression, and it was even more difficult for her to understand what Bai Hen was talking about.

Bai Hen was admiring the barrier in front of him. In his eyes, this ritual site was even more perfect than the Holy Grail War that he had previously used the entire root as a fulcrum. It was so perfect that it didn't seem like a product that could be born naturally.

In this barrier called "Ogawa Apartment", living dolls are regarded as yang and dead humans are regarded as yin, creating a cycle of birth and death in the morning and evening. This apartment contains (entangled with) many contradictions such as east and west, yin and yang, life and death, truth and falsehood, etc., which conforms to the "opposition and unity" characteristics of the two yin and yang.

Although in terms of nature this barrier, which is based on the concept of Yin and Yang and blends multiple religious concepts and principles, undoubtedly meets Bai Hen's needs, Bai Hen has been in Guanbuzi City for more than two years and has never taken it seriously.

There is no other reason, the status and specifications are too far apart.

Even though this was the perfect barrier that Araya Soren had spent his entire life learning to construct, it was still not worth mentioning in Baihen's eyes. Even if Baihen only used the knowledge from the Type-Moon world, he could easily create a barrier that was more perfect than this one and could affect the entire world, not to mention the knowledge that Baihen had learned from other worlds...

Well, Bai Hen didn't seem to have learned it in the previous world. After all, he didn't rely on it to make a living. Such delicate work was totally unsuitable for Bai Hen. After all, all the rituals Bai Hen had built so far only determined the target process and could set up the black box in the process at will.

No matter how abstract the steps in between are, they will not affect the future that Bai Hen will eventually arrive at. Compared with his own simple and crude ritual of thinking, a ritual like this, which is linked together and may lead to a complete collapse if there is a problem in any one of the steps, is naturally not within Bai Hen's consideration.

Even the knowledge of the Type-Moon world was only entered into Bai Hen's brain by himself when he invaded the Origin. It was absolutely impossible to ask Bai Hen to learn it actively, but getting it for free was something that hundreds of millions of people could accept.

Back to the Ogawa Apartment in front of them, the barrier that should have been ordinary or even extremely simple in Bai Hen's eyes suddenly came to life after Ryougi Shiki entered it, like a giant dragon with eyes.

To Bai Hen, the current Ogawa Apartment looks like a Transformer made of garbage from a recycling station, shabby and simple but full of beauty.

The most bizarre thing is that this recycling station is clearly just an ordinary recycling station that could be seen everywhere in the millennium. It is already outrageous that the garbage found here can be used to build a Transformer. It is even more outrageous that this Transformer can still function normally. Even Bai Hen may not be able to build such a perfect and appropriate ritual, but a living Transformer grew up wildly here!

Is this a beaver?!

Regardless of whether it was reasonable or not, Bai Hen was indeed shocked.

"Lone yin cannot produce life, and alone yang cannot grow, so heaven and earth are matched with yin and yang." - This is a sentence from "Children's Stories Qionglin·Husband and Wife" by Cheng Yunsheng of the Qing Dynasty. The Tai Chi diagram also illustrates this principle:

The fish eye in Yin and Yang, firstly, indicates that both Yin and Yang contain opposite factors, that is, Yin contains Yang and Yang contains Yin; secondly, it indicates that Yin and Yang themselves are not static, and opposite factors will be generated spontaneously within them; thirdly, the relationship between Yin and Yang is complex, not a single opposite relationship.

Bai Hen's essence is yin, darkness, and half of the sum of everything in the endless dimension - of course, that is after he has fully grown up. Now Bai Hen has not thought about turning himself into a phenomenon, a rule, so although Bai Hen's growth rate seems very fast, in fact, compared with his essence, it can only be said to be a snail's pace.

Because he was far from growing to his original limit, Bai Hen was not quite sure whether his origin would be mixed with the yang side to maintain balance, but he inferred that there would be.

The ceremony now before Bai Hen indirectly proved Bai Hen's guess, not because of the structure of the ceremony itself, but because Bai Hen could feel that he could formally incorporate [Yang] into his own power through the ceremony.

Regardless of whether it is a miracle with a probability of only one in Googolplex, or it is bait specially arranged here by some existence; regardless of whether it is a complement to balance itself, or it is said that yin and yang are originally one and Bai Hen can actually develop himself from half to full, Bai Hen will not miss this gift from heaven.

"Orange, you are lucky, but I am luckier, better than ever!" After Bai Hen said this to the confused Aozaki Orange, he took a step forward and walked towards Ogawa Apartment.

"Huh~ Shenjin." Aozaki Touko couldn't help but curse under her breath. She looked up at Ogawa Apartment, but finally decided not to go in. She just waited here quietly for the final result.

"It's just like coming home." This was Bai Hen's truest feeling after stepping into Xiaochuan's apartment, which made him more determined.

"You guy, are you also the helper invited by Araya Soren? Unfortunately, it's too late. I won and he is dead." Ryougi Shiki's magic eyes, which were flowing with rainbow light, shone brightly, and his body trembled slightly as he pointed the dagger in his hand at Bai Hen.

"What's with this throbbing, this impulse that's coming out of this void? Why is it even stronger now than when I first met him, even though I've already filled part of the Galan Hole in my heart? ! "Ryougi Shiki's heart wasn't as calm as it appeared on the surface.

She had just experienced a life-and-death battle with Araya Zongren and was already almost exhausted. Even facing ordinary enemies, there was a risk of failure, not to mention Bai Hen, who had an unknown origin, unknown strength, and seemed to have a special connection with her.

"I'm here to welcome you, Shiki." Bai Hen stretched out his right hand towards "Ryougi Shiki". Just as the Origin Shiki had invited him to come to this Guanbuzi City, he also extended an invitation to him at this moment, so that the Origin Shiki could be officially born into the world.

"Sorry to have kept you waiting." Ryougi Shiki found that his body was walking towards Baihen uncontrollably. He also stretched out his right hand and placed it on Baihen's right hand. At the same time, a gentle voice sounded in his mind, "Thank you for your hard work during this period, Shiki."

Although she had never known about the existence of the Root Shiki, Ryougi Shiki realized the moment the voice sounded that it was the original "Shiki", an existence that had existed in this body before she and Ori were born. It was the common pursuit of the Ryougi family or all magicians - the root.

"You bastard!" Ryougi Shiki, who suddenly regained control of her body, stared at Bai Hen with gritted teeth and tried to shake her hand away but couldn't break free from Bai Hen's big hand.

"Be good, go out and play with Orange first, I'll come find you guys soon." Bai Hen took Ryougi Shiki's hand and threw her out the door.

"Hey!" Ryougi Shiki only had time to exclaim before Baihen threw her out of Ogawa Apartment and landed in front of Aozaki Touko and Araya Soren.

"Next, it's my moment."

Chapter 215 A New Path to Reshape the Future

Bai Hen completely liberated himself from this place, and boundless darkness descended here, covering the entire Xiaochuan Apartment. The simple and perfect ceremony started an unstoppable chain reaction like a falling domino.

The redundant information from every corner was swallowed up by Bai Hen, and only the unspeakable things at the core of the ritual kept changing as the ritual progressed, gradually growing stronger. The mysterious aura influenced endless dimensions with this ritual, Guanbuzi City, and Type-Moon World as the center.

Although the birth of this ceremony can be called a miracle, it is destined to be unsustainable due to the scale of the ceremony. Like a candle in the wind, the ceremony came to an end in the blink of an eye.

"Now!" Bai Hen seized the only moment, and at the moment when the ritual collapsed and the unspeakable thing at the core of the ritual took shape and was about to disappear, he let his darkness capture it, devour it, and integrate it into his body.

"Why is there a total solar eclipse suddenly? Is that Baihen guy's doing again?" After attending the funeral of Araya Souren, Aozaki Touko and Ryougi Shiki had no time to exchange information before darkness suddenly descended upon the world, with only a ray of light and an edge visible.

"It can't be anyone else but him." Ryougi Shiki kicked the weeds at his feet in annoyance. The original "Shiki" in her body was acquainted with Bai Hen, and Bai Hen came to Guanbuzi City just to let her be born again. Then what became of herself and Zhi?

"Yin and Yang are born, and the clear and turbid are separated." The "Yang" that was born through this ceremony and then swallowed and transformed by Bai Hen was only a tiny bit, but this tiny bit of light was enough for Bai Hen to reorganize himself again, allowing this tiny bit of "Yang" to merge into the entire "Yin" to create a brand new foundation.

"What a pity, there are too few." Bai Hen looked at the Xiaochuan Apartment with some regret. It was no different from the previous one. The accidental miracle had disappeared from here. Now it was just an ordinary barrier.

The reason why a miracle is a miracle is because it cannot be replicated. Even the Ogawa Apartment ceremony, which is called a miracle in Bai Hen's eyes, cannot be replicated again. Even if Bai Hen reverses time and makes the entire Type-Moon world experience the same thing again, it is still the same. At least it cannot be done before Bai Hen expands the power of "Yang" to a certain extent.

To strengthen this trace of "Yang" is the new goal that Bai Hen has now discovered.

Bai Hen does not need to worry about the growth of "Yin" at all. Even if Bai Hen does nothing, the origin of "Yin" symbolizing Bai Hen will grow spontaneously. Not to mention that Bai Hen also uses the Holy Grail ceremony to transform his contestants into MLM leaders to continuously spread Bai Hen's cause and effect in the world.

Although the efficiency is a bit low, it is convenient and fast, and the appropriate growth rate will not affect Bai Hen's retained personality. Compared to speed, stability is what Bai Hen wants most.

The growth of "Yang" can also be compared in this way, but because it is now too scarce, so scarce that Bai Hen can't even separate it as the starting capital for the pyramid scheme. In addition, compared with "Yin", the new intern "Xiao Yang" lacks some subjective initiative, so Bai Hen will be "busy" for a while, and as the leader of the pyramid scheme, he will have to personally develop new members.

"Is it over? I hope I never see this guy again." Aozaki Touko has made up her mind. After Baihen leaves, she will go somewhere else to avoid the limelight. She would rather go find her stupid sister Aozaki Aoko than stay in the same city with Baihen.
