"How is this possible? Isn't that the same as treating others as blind?"
"Hahahaha." Kiyono Hachiro laughed again. "Don't mention you. I actually feel the same way - how could anyone not be able to tell the difference? Unless there's some mysterious force influencing all of this."
"But that kind of thing is just a legend after all. It would be a bit strange if it were true."
"but--"
"For you, the meaning may be different."
Kiyono Hachiro's gaze returned to Ian and Okita Souji who were present.
He was holding a cigarette and looked a little nonchalant, but his tone was so serious that it was impossible to doubt him.
"If you really saw Ugly Gozen there, then maybe you can also see Minamoto no Raikou in Kyoto..."
"Of course, that's just a possibility. No one knows whether it will turn out this way."
Kiyono Hachiro touched his waist and seemed a little unhappy when he found that the cigarette box was empty.
"The cigarette is gone, but at least the story is over."
"You three little brats, go get some rest—we'll probably be in Kyoto by the time we wake up!"
871. Okita Souji's Chivalrous Adventures/First Stop in Kyoto Full of Samurai (4k)
On the same night, inside the cabin.
Ian, Souji Okita and Isami Kondo slept together after a long time.
only--
None of the three of them felt sleepy at the moment.
"Have you...really seen that being called Ugly Gozen?"
Kondo Isami, who was sitting a little further away from Ian and Okita Souji, was the first to ask:
"Don't lie to me."
"I'm not lying to you." Ian glanced at Kondo Isami. "There's no point in lying to you about this kind of thing. We really did see Ugly Gozen."
"Even if you wanted to cheat, you couldn't possibly cheat the Great Miko as well, right?"
"but……"
Ian hesitated for a moment, his eyes falling on Okita Souji again.
"I haven't actually confirmed whether Ugly Gozen has really invited us."
"Okita, I'm not doubting you, but could you recall it in a little more detail?"
"..."
After Ian said this, Okita Souji sat up and began to seriously recall what he had experienced that day.
"Sai San, do you remember what happened before she hit you in the chest and you fell down?"
"Remember……"
Ian also sat up.
"She's holding two nodachi swords, right? The black kind."
"correct."
Okita Souji nodded.
"After you collapsed, she looked very anxious—as if she knew you very well."
"no!"
Seeing that Souji Okita and Ian both sat up, and with such a strange description, Kondo Isami quickly stood up as well.
But from her perspective, she really didn't understand anything.
"Why is there such a strange contrast?!"
"One second he's holding a nodachi and ready to kill, and the next second he's crying and screaming. This is called Ugly Gozen. Is he crazy?"
"..."
Listening to Kondo Isami's words, Okita Souji's lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say a word.
only--
Such small details naturally could not escape Ian's sight.
"Okita, if you remember anything, just say it."
"There are no outsiders here. Xiaoyong and I will believe you, even if it sounds hard to believe."
"Yes!"
Kondo Isami also nodded.
"I believe whatever you say."
"..."
With the encouragement of his lover and friends, Souji Okita hesitated for a while, but still began to tell what was in his heart.
"At that time, she called another name to Sasaki..."
"Another name?"
Kondo Isami was stunned for a moment.
"No—what's the name?"
"I didn't hear it clearly... but she did yell," Okita Souji replied to his friend. "Then, as if realizing she'd done something wrong, she picked up Toshizo and placed him in front of me, leaving a message inviting us to Kyoto."
"No... I think it should be called a 'threat' - after all, she said that if I don't come, something terrible will definitely happen."
"This……"
Kondo Isami was speechless.
He felt that what Okita Souji said was far beyond his understanding.
"I feel like you guys are getting more and more mysterious the more you talk..."
Unlike Kondo Isami's slightly confused reaction, after listening to Okita Souji's words, Ian fell into deep thought.
After a while, he spoke again;
"If that's the case, could the name Ushiro Gozen called out be related to Minamoto no Raikou?"
"After all, according to Master Ba, the two of them are essentially the same person, right?"
"..."
"..."
Ian's further speculation silenced both Okita Souji and Kondo Isami.
After a while, Okita Souji finally spoke:
"Then this matter is very likely related to Genji, right?"
"That is, it might be related to the truth behind the One Hundred Demons Night Parade."
"..."
"Stop exaggerating!" Kondo Isami quickly stopped Ian Okita Souji, "If you keep going like this, you two will be the ones writing all the weird stories."
"Go to bed!"
"Stop thinking so much!"
【Kondo Isami interrupted you and Okita Souji's thoughts in time.】
【only--】
[Both you and Okita Souji have fallen into a vortex of thought.]
[However, the bumpy ride has indeed put a lot of strain on your bodies.]
So in the end, you fell asleep.
After a not-so-refined night's rest.
Kiyono Hachiro took Ian and the other two off the boat.
"arrive--"
"Little devils, this is the Kyoto you've been waiting for!"
"..."
"Why aren't you cheering at all?"
"This one……"
Okita Souji forced an awkward smile, looking like he didn't know what to say.
Kondo Isami was extremely honest. She looked directly at Kiyono Hachiro and then spoke in a very dissatisfied tone;
"Hey—Master Ba!"
"If this is Kyoto, wouldn't our trip be in vain?"
Just as Kondo Isami had complained, the three of them did get off the ship, but what greeted them upon landing was not a flourishing metropolis, but...
Small village.
"Eighth Master! This is totally wrong!"
Kondo Isami pointed at the scene before him.
"What kind of Kyoto is this? It's completely different from what everyone else said!"
"So you outsiders are ignorant."
I don't know when Kiyono Hachiro took off his hat and picked up a fan.
A loud bang.
The fan unfolded in front of his eyes like a beautiful flower.
In this way, Kiyono Hachiro is far different from his previous image of a smoking gangster, and looks more like a rich young man.
"I just said you guys are in Kyoto, I didn't say this is Kyoto!"
"what?"
Okita Souji showed a puzzled look.
"Then where is Kyoto?"
"We still have to go a little further north."
Kiyono Hachiro waved the fan in his hand and pointed it into the distance.
"You don't think Kyoto is a city by the sea, do you?"
"..."
Okita Souji was stunned by what Kiyono Hachiro said, but it did sound reasonable.
"So where do we go now?"
Kondo Isami brought the topic back to reality.
"This isn't Kyoto. You have to take us to Kyoto, right, Master Ba?"
"I told you not to rush."
Kiyono Hachiro was a little dissatisfied.
"Aren't I just leading you guys?"
"Let's go——"
"Let's go to the nearby Mibu Village first. There's a carriage to Kyoto there."
The journey continues.
