Genshin Impact players in the world of Detective Conan

Upon seeing the familiar figure, the girl with long, straight black hair immediately showed a look of surprise and delight:

"Great, it really is a sapphire. I knew I wasn't mistaken."

Yin Kong reminded him:

"This little guy isn't called [Sapphire] anymore; you can call it [Barbatos Juvenile]..."

However, Ms. Yukinoshita seemed to be completely deaf to his words, and simply pulled out a can of cat food that she always carried with her:

"Sapphire, sapphire, this is your favorite tuna flavored canned food... Don't rush, eat slowly, you must have been starving these days, right?"

This little guy is really delicate.

As expected of the former star attraction of Starry Sky Cat Cafe, it was only through Xue Xia's murmured words that Yin Kong learned that there was a set of rules for how it was patted, fed, cleaned, and even exercised.

This treatment is nothing short of pampered, like that of a lady from a noble family among cats.

However, now that it's with Yin Kong and Paimon, it's obviously no longer able to enjoy such a refined and luxurious cat life.

Fortunately, after falling into demonhood and then being purified, this little guy is now many times more resilient than before, and the wildness hidden in his bloodline is gradually being unleashed.

These past two days, I've been jumping around and running around with them, but I haven't shown any discomfort. On the contrary, I seem to be enjoying it.

Of course, it is also very likely that it is because its current race has changed.

Even if you don't eat or drink for several days, you won't really starve to death.

At this moment, although it was attracted by the cat food that Yukino Yukinoshita took out, it was not really hungry; it was just reminiscing about the familiar taste from its previous life.

After sniffing the magical cat for several minutes, Yukino Yukinoshita gradually regained her senses.

She looked up at Yin Kong, her eyes sparkling:

"Mr. Yin Kong, may I visit the Rabbit House often in the future?"

She still had Yin Kong's business card in her hand, which contained the phone number and address of the Rabbit House.

To be honest, how could she not be curious about the all-powerful agency run by such a mysterious figure?

Yin Kong smiled slightly and replied:

“We at the Sly Rabbit House certainly do not welcome Ms. Yukinoshita’s ideas.”

"Then I'll—hmm?"

Yukino Yukinoshita was stunned for a moment before realizing that Yin Kong seemed to have said "not welcome" just now?

“That’s right, Ms. Yukinoshita. If you have a request to handle, I will naturally welcome you with open arms. However, if you have come for the [Barbatos Childhood Form], then I’m afraid I can only apologize.”

You may not be aware that this world harbors many dangers, and it might not be a good thing for ordinary people who are completely unaware of these dangers to get too close to us.

When Yin Kong said this, he subconsciously ignored a certain popular idol.

However, it is certainly not a good thing for ordinary people in this world to be obsessed with the mysterious.

"I...I understand."

Yukino Yukinoshita was clearly unwilling to accept this outcome, but after opening her mouth, she ultimately chose not to argue with Yin Kong. Instead, she lowered her head and said in a dejected tone:

She had already understood Yin Kong's unspoken meaning: this was not only a reunion, but also an opportunity for them to say goodbye properly.

Chapter 97 Evolve, Barbatos Juvenile Form

"Sapphire, sapphire, will we ever have a chance to meet again?"

"I hope you'll be happy when we meet again."

"Sapphire! How can I live without you!"

Just as Yin Kong began to hallucinate, seeing Ms. Yukinoshita chasing after a taxi and shouting, he also sensed the changes in the Well of Bones.

"As expected, I easily took down a small fry like Nifa Jieluo..."

Before anyone could even see him, Inuyasha's noisy voice had already reached everyone's ears.

Soon, the young boy and girl climbed out of the well.

Mrs. Higurashi breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

Although Yin Kong's guess had been largely accepted by her, it was still just a conjecture.

How could this mother truly feel at ease until she saw her daughter return safely?

"We're back."

Kagome and Inuyasha, naturally oblivious to all this, waved to the crowd and then Kagome produced a broken red comb:

"By the way, Mr. Yin Kong, this is the true form of the Reverse Hair Jie Luo. See if it meets your requirements."

Although Yura is dressed as a seductive female ninja, she is actually a comb used for makeup on the dead. Because it is tainted with resentment, it has become the monster that they see.

These two are indeed teammates worth nurturing and trusting.

Seeing that the young man and woman had brought him spoils of war in their very first battle, Yin Kong naturally found them more and more pleasing to the eye.

Unfortunately, after inspection, he discovered that the broken comb was not a material dropped by world bosses like the Tower of Dark Rock or the Heart of Pure Water, but rather a more common weapon and character enhancement material like Slime Essence or Forbidden Scroll.

"Meow meow meow……"

Just as Yin Kong was about to ask the all-knowing Mr. Zhongli if the comb could be "repurposed," [Barbatos Baby Form] suddenly perked up, jumped out of Xue Shita's arms, perched on his shoulder, and meowed eagerly.

"You want to eat it?"

Upon hearing Yin Kong's question, the magical cat immediately nodded repeatedly.

Then give it a try.

Yin Kong thought for a moment and then placed the comb in front of the [Barbatos Juvenile Form].

"Meow-"

Immediately, the magical cat excitedly opened its mouth, and black gas immediately poured out of the broken comb, which it inhaled.

"Is it absorbing the demonic power of the Reverse-Haired Jalujah?"

Upon seeing this scene, Inuyasha unconsciously frowned.

The world of monsters is clearly more primitive and direct than human society.

The law of the jungle, where the strong prey on the weak and devour each other, is the survival rule for most weak monsters.

Even the most powerful demons often devour the corpses of their enemies to enhance their own demonic power.

However, as a half-demon with human blood in his veins, Inuyasha instinctively resists, and even loathes, this way of becoming stronger.

The level of [Reverse Hair Jalu] is obviously much higher than that of [Barbatos Juvenile Form]. Even if it is just the residual demonic power, it is by no means something that the little guy can easily digest.

Therefore, in Yin Kong's perception, the little guy had only absorbed less than one-tenth of the demonic power in the comb before he involuntarily started burping.

Soon, it curled its body into a ball and fell into a deep sleep.

Yin Kong nodded in satisfaction, carefully putting away the [Barbatos's Childhood Form] and the [Broken Wooden Comb], then looked at Inuyasha:

"Inuyasha, is there something you want to remind me of?"

Of course, he couldn't have failed to notice that the half-demon boy had been hesitant to speak from the very beginning.

"It's nothing."

Inuyasha had no idea that Yin Kong would be paying close attention to his reactions.

Although he didn't like this approach, he wouldn't have said much about it.

After all, he was already used to such scenes.

But since Yin Kong asked, Inuyasha decided to be frank:

"I just want to remind you that while absorbing the demonic power of an enemy can quickly enhance its own power, it can also make the demonic power within the body chaotic and turbid."

This little guy's aura is so pure; it would be a shame if it were contaminated.

Besides devouring each other, monsters can also grow stronger by cultivating themselves and tapping into the power within their bloodlines.

Monsters that grow up in this way have a purer aura and demonic power, and their strength is often at the top among monsters of the same level.

It's quite obvious that the former requires an immense amount of time that would make even monsters despair, while the latter requires mastering powerful reincarnation techniques.

Inuyasha was undoubtedly lucky, because his father was one of the most powerful demons of the Sengoku period.

His starting point was the endpoint that 99% of the weak monsters of that era had to look up to.

However, this powerful bloodline also attracted countless covetous eyes.

For many demons whose strength cannot be further improved due to their mixed bloodlines, Inuyasha's appeal may not be as great as that of a treasure like the Shikon Jewel, but it is definitely more tempting than dozens or even hundreds of ordinary people.

“I see, I understand now.” Yin Kong nodded slightly and explained, “But please rest assured, the little guy is not a real demon. As long as it’s not excessive, absorbing demonic power will not affect its own purity.”

Although their auras are very similar, the [Barbatos Juvenile Form] is neither a demon nor a monster; its existence is far more unique than theirs.

Not only did she gain Yin Kong's approval, but her inner resentment was also completely purified.

The latter, in particular, has never been enjoyed even by the "Ever-Changing Witch" who is still hiding on the other side of the earth.

The demonic aura was indeed filled with resentment, but compared to the little guy's experiences, it was really insignificant.

In its dreams, the resentment within its demonic power is slowly soothed and completely transformed into its own power.

"Tch, looks like I was meddling in other people's business." Inuyasha curled his lip and casually stuck the [Iron Shadow Broadsword] into the floor. "However, your weapon is very useful. Thanks."

Inuyasha was deeply impressed by the fact that after he was injured, a mysterious power flowed into his body from the greatsword, supporting him to fight more and more fiercely.

Kagome nodded vigorously, and with the help of the [Oath of the Sharpshooter], she took the initiative and shot Yura with a single arrow, blowing her head off.

Unfortunately, the opponent's real weakness was this comb. Even with its head blown off, it could continue fighting unaffected.

Although they went through a long and arduous battle before finally finding and defeating the reverse-haired Jieluo, it was clearly their own fault and had nothing to do with their weapons.

"It works well, that's good. If you can bring back more materials, I can help you further enhance it—wait, what?"

Yin Kong suddenly let out a soft exclamation halfway through his speech, because he was very surprised to find that the experience points of the weapons in the hands of the two of them had increased significantly compared to before.

Chapter 98 The True Face of the World

Yin Kong was absolutely certain that the weapons he gave to Inuyasha and Kagome were completely unupgraded.

After all, he hadn't even had time to upgrade Wan Ye, Xiao Lu, and Xiao Ai Mi's weapons to level 20 yet, so how could he possibly give away upgraded weapons so easily?

But now, whether it's Kagome's [Oath of the Sharpshooter] or Inuyasha's [Iron Shadow Broadsword], although their levels haven't increased, their experience bars have indeed grown significantly.

Could it be that these weapons gain experience and automatically level up during battles with monsters?

Or is it that Inuyasha and Kagome in front of him are special?

If that's the case, then Yin Kong probably understands where this level 90 [Ruoshui] weapon came from.

It's likely that Kagome Higurashi, who looks completely harmless, will actually use it to conquer all twelve layers of the Abyss in the future, which is how she leveled it up to the maximum level.

However, if that's the case, then Inuyasha should also have a fully-leveled two-handed sword.

Could it be that this half-demon boy died before he could achieve his goal, or that the two-handed sword was kept somewhere else?

As Yin Kong was pondering, he suddenly smelled a bloody odor:

"Inuyasha, are you injured?"

"It's just a minor injury, nothing serious. I'm not like you fragile humans."

Although he said that, judging from the way he was baring his teeth, it was clear that this half-demon boy was just being stubborn.

In fact, he was stabbed through the abdomen by Nifa Jieluo, and then suffered several more stabs.

Such injuries would probably land an ordinary person in the ICU, but Inuyasha was still alive and kicking as he followed Kagome back. He truly lives up to his reputation as a resilient half-demon; he's incredibly durable.

Everyone was stunned when they saw Hisaki Shinobu emerge from the shadows at Yin Kong's call.

Inuyasha, in particular, was utterly shocked:

"How is this possible? There are actually other people here?"

Has his nose stopped working again?

More importantly, like Yura Sakae, Shinobu Hisaki is dressed in a very typical female ninja style.

Fortunately, the two have completely different styles; otherwise, Inuyasha and Kagome, who had just fought a fierce battle, might have been on the verge of a breakdown.
