Heaven has bound me to weakness? I angrily unleash the Eight Gates!

Under normal circumstances, the person with the best chance of becoming the next head of the family should be Zenin Naoya.

The other party absolutely cannot just watch the position of family head fall into the hands of an outsider.

“Father, I have no objection to you making Brother Shen Jie the head of the family, but Fushiguro Megumi... isn’t that a bit inappropriate?”

Zenin Naoya looked at Zenin Naobito, who was sitting in the main seat, with a questioning look in his eyes.

Zenji Jikiji was drinking sake, a faint smile on his face.

"That's settled then. If you have any questions, go talk to the Zenji brothers, Jinsuke and Jinsuke."

"I disagree!"

A sweet voice came from outside the door, and Zenin Maki rushed in, followed by Zenin Mai.

A hint of worry appeared on Mayi's face. She tugged at Maki's clothes with one hand and whispered, "Sister, calm down, don't be impulsive."

Although she had become much bolder, Zhenyi was still somewhat afraid when facing the elders of the Zen family.

Maki stormed in angrily, startling everyone present.

"What are you doing here, you piece of trash? This concerns the head of the family, what right do you two have to speak?"

Zen-in-sen's face darkened as he watched his two daughters burst in.

If it weren't for the fact that these two daughters hadn't failed to demonstrate their talents, the position of family head back then might not have been held by anyone else.

In response to Zenin Fan's angry rebuke, Mai stood behind Maki and lowered her head.

Maki glanced at her father, her eyes showing no fear or respect whatsoever.

He then turned to look at Zenin Naohito, who was sitting in the main seat, and said in a loud voice, "I demand that the head of the family be re-elected, and I also want to be one of the candidates for the head of the family!"

When she left the Zen-in family, she made a bold statement that she would definitely become the next head of the Zen-in family.

Even if her competitor is Hui, she will never give up on this goal so easily.

After Maki said this, the entire room fell silent for two seconds, and everyone stared at Maki blankly.

"Pfft, hahahahaha...!"

A burst of cheerful laughter echoed throughout the room.

Zenji Naoya laughed so hard he fell to the ground, clutching his stomach with both hands.

This was the biggest joke he had ever heard in his life.

"Who do you think you are, some big brother?"

"Don't think that just because you're in a similar situation to Brother Jinsuke, you can become like him."

Let me tell you, there will only ever be one Brother Jinsuke. Do you really think that just because you've been lucky enough to become his disciple, you can become as strong as him?

Zenji Naoya mocked him mercilessly.

"Maki, stop making a fool of yourself here. You can leave now."

The Zen temple fan coldly rebuked.

"Wait, I agree to this!"

After laughing for a moment, Zenji Naokijin came up with a good idea.

"What? Second brother, how can you joke about something like this!" Zenin Sen looked at Naobi and quickly spoke up.

Zenji Naohito waved his hand, a smile on his face, "Since you all have opinions about the position of head of the family, then I will be democratic for once."

"The next head of the Zen-in family will be elected by force, and the election will be held in... one year from now! Anyone with the bloodline of the Zen-in family can participate in the election for the next head of the family."

The Jibi people calculated the time and determined that the current situation was not suitable for electing a new head of the family, so they set the time for a year later.

Since everyone wants to be the head of the family, then let's use our strength to conquer all the clansmen, so that no one will have any objections.

"Hiss...this doesn't seem like a bad idea."

Zen-in-sen fell into deep thought. This method was much fairer, and he had a great chance of becoming the head of the family.

“I have no objection,” Zen Monastery Master nodded in agreement.

"I have no objection either."

Zenji Naoya looked at Maki and said, "Remember, you have a year left. At that time, I will show you the difference between yourself and Brother Jinsuke."

"Neuropathy."

Maki glanced at him and then left with Maki.

With a year to go, she will do her best to become stronger.

At the very least, one should do one's best to strive for the position of head of the family.

After leaving, Mayi looked at Maki and said, "Sister, do you really want to become the head of the family? I think we're fine as we are."

Although her strength has improved a lot, Mai still doesn't quite understand Maki's thoughts.

They're all quite powerful now; wouldn't it be better for them to become sorcerers?

Why bother fighting for the position of head of the family?

"What's so good about it? Do you want to be laughed at for the rest of your life?"

"It's nothing, just ignore them." Zhenyi pouted.

Maki glanced at her and said, "I'm not asking you to be the head of the family, why are you so concerned?"

"Just mind your own business. Remember to improve your strength quickly and forge that knife I told you about."

Having experienced the full arsenal in Shibuya, Maki no longer finds ordinary cursed weapons appealing.

She also wanted to have such a powerful arsenal.

The person who can help her fulfill this dream is her good younger sister, Zenin Shin'i.

"Ugh~ You're trying to kill me with your work! Creating those kinds of magical artifacts will practically kill me."

"That's why I'm urging you to get stronger quickly, otherwise I won't wait for you."

Zhenyi looked at her heartless sister and felt very angry.

He secretly abandoned her to go to Tokyo College back then, and now he's not even going to pretend anymore, is he?

"Sister, I've made up my mind! I want to become the head of the Zen family too! I want to compete with you!"

Zhenyi looked determined.

She wants to become stronger, stronger than everyone in the Zen family, and then ascend to the position of head of the Zen family, making everyone submit to her!

This made her older sister afraid to speak to her like that anymore, and it also made her older brother stay at the Zen Temple home and play with her every day.

Upon hearing this, Maki gave Mai a strange look, reached out and touched her forehead, pondered for a moment, and then said in a deep voice:

"He doesn't have a fever, so why is he talking nonsense..."

"..."

Chapter 103 Tsumiki Awakens

Inside the room, Zenji Jinji, Jinji, and Fukuro Megumi surrounded the bed.

Tsumiki lay quietly on the bed, like a sleeping beauty.

The curse mark on his forehead had disappeared.

"Uncle, why hasn't my sister woken up yet?"

Fu Hei Hui's face showed worry. Previously, the Tartar emperor had pried open the window and the source of the sound.

Shen Er looked at Zen-in-chan, who was also confused about the current situation.

Zenji Jinsuke stroked his chin, sizing up the unconscious Wan, but didn't expose her for the time being. He simply took out a box.

Inside the box was a small, round, enchanted object, of the highest grade.

The text appears to be a jumbled collection of characters and symbols, possibly from different sources. A direct translation isn't meaningful without further context or clarification.

Under the watchful eyes of the two, Zenji Shinsuke took out the cursed object from the box.

Then, with one hand pinching Tsumiki's face, he opened her mouth and quickly pressed the spherical cursed object into it.

Tsumiki, who had been unconscious, suddenly opened her eyes, glaring angrily at Zenin Jinsuke. "What did you feed me?!"

Wan, who had been feigning unconsciousness, sat up and clutched his throat with both hands, trying to prevent the cursed object from sliding into his stomach.

However, she was oversimplifying things.

The cursed object, once inside her mouth, transformed into cursed power and flowed into her body.

"I want you to die!"

Wan realized he was losing control of his body and suddenly became agitated, raising his hand towards Zenji Jinsuke and the other two.

A powerful burst of magical energy erupted, and a large amount of liquid metal appeared out of thin air in the room, attempting to engulf the three of them.

"Shhhhh!"

Seeing this, Shen Er took the Heavenly Reversal Blade from Chou Bao's mouth, and with a few swift movements, he cut down all the surrounding liquid metal.

The ancient sorcerer Man, who possessed Tsumiki's body, used the same technique as Zenin Shin'ei, both being construction techniques.

Of course, the opponent's strength is far beyond what Zenji Shin'i can currently match.

Seeing that his attack had no effect, Wan Qiang endured the dizziness in his brain, ripped off the blanket, activated the construction spell, and armor formed by the power of the spell appeared on his body.

Armor resembling an insect's exoskeleton covers the entire body, arming every part of it.

It extended its armed claws and attacked the group.

Shen Er pulled Fu Hei Hui and instantly flashed several meters away.

Claws locked onto the nearest Zenji Jinsuke.

Zenji Jinsuke reached out and grabbed Wan's claws, while his other hand gripped the other's throat, pinning him to the bed, rendering him immobile.

"let me go!"

Wan struggled frantically, but the hand on his neck was like a vise, and he couldn't resist at all.

What's going on? Are sorcerers all this powerful now? Even a sorcerer of her level has no chance to fight back.

Zenji Jinsuke remained calm, pressing down on the object and waiting for its full effect to be released.

After a moment, Wan's struggles gradually weakened, and eventually the armor on his body disappeared.

After a short while, Tsuki's eyes cleared up, and she looked at Zenin Jinsuke, who was choking her, with a somewhat confused expression.

Upon hearing this, Zenji Jinjie finally released his grip, saying, "As expected of an ancient madwoman, she can withstand even a top-grade cursed object for so long."

"Welcome back, Tsumiki."

"Sister, how do you feel?"

Fushiguro walked forward excitedly, looked at the awakened Tsumiki, and asked her cautiously.

After a moment of stunned silence, Tsumiki's brain finally restarted, and a gentle smile appeared on her face.

"Hui, I'm alright."

"Father, Uncle, thank you."

Although she has been in a coma for the past few years, she can still sense some of the noise from the outside world.

Over the past few years, her family has stayed by her side and never given up on her.

A tear slid down a smiling face; in this moment, the care between family members became tangible.

She is very happy to have so many family members who care about her.

"Now that everything's alright, take a good rest these next few days. As for that thing inside you, don't worry about it for now," Zenin Jinsuke comforted him.

"What on earth is going on? Wasn't that Tsumiki who just appeared?"

Shen Er looked at Zenjiro with a puzzled expression.

Tsuki and Megumi also turned their attention to Zen-in Jinsuke.

Fushiguro Megumi also only had a superficial understanding of Tsumiki's situation.
