Chapter 101 What Can You Do to Me
"...Tsk."
It was rare for Toosaka Hideno to show such an expression.
Dissatisfaction? Or regret for not being able to live up to expectations?
Kyoto and others were ready to go, and the air was filled with fluctuations of cursed energy.
A gleam of light flashed behind Su Ze.
Miso——
In almost an instant, the seven long swords stopped steadily at the throats of all the people on the opposite side.
The flying swords of each hexagram have different shapes and colors, but the only thing that remains unchanged is the tremendous energy brewing at the tip of the sword.
...Is this "Qi"?
Toosaka Hideno exhaled heavily.
"...Su Ze, even if I am an 'Astral Body', I will still stop you." Toosaka Hideno frowned and stopped the technique. His eyes no longer had that strange light.
Tōsaka Hideno's voice was low, but Tenriko heard what he said. Her face was grim.
The long sword made a faint sound.
Su Ze and others passed by them.
The two passed each other, Su Ze paused for a moment and spoke.
"……me too."
He looked tired as he spoke to Tōsaka Hideno.
……
On the way to the core area of the college.
There were a lot of people standing in front.
The elders of the three great families, the mainstays of the world of sorcery, and the top executives of the two technical colleges.
The leader was Yoshinobu Rakugenji.
"Stop, Suze."
He had a hunched back and leaned on a specially made mahogany cane. His eyes were cloudy, but there was a gleam of light in their depths.
"...Le Yan Temple, Principal." Su Ze and others stopped, their tone still tired.
"You are the most outstanding geniuses in the world of sorcery. I thought you would understand this truth—"
The senior executives behind him were a little restless.
"...what conservatives call 'seeking stability'?" Su Ze sighed heavily and closed his eyes.
"The name 'conservatives' was given by the younger generation to distinguish us old guys. For thousands of years, we have been the only mainstream in the world of sorcery."
Yokugenji Yoshinobu did not activate any spells, nor did he release any cursed energy at all.
Gojo Satoru didn't look at the person opposite him, nor did he listen to the conversation between the two parties. He was still immersed in the joy of enlightenment.
But Xia Youjie frowned slightly. He was not angry, but instead felt a little bit of other emotions.
——Because what Yoshinobu Rakugenji said is absolutely right.
It seems that "assimilation" should not be used as a gimmick or be criticized for anything, both emotionally and logically.
Behind Yoshinobu Rakugenji, the younger members of the three major families were a little irritable and wanted to say something, but were stopped by him.
"Principal Le Yansi, where is Teacher Ye Ge? He should have come back..." Su Ze forced his eyelids open.
"Zhengdao is in the reception room of the college." Le Yansi remained calm, "... In order to completely distance him from you, I knocked him unconscious."
He added slowly.
"Really? That's good." Su Ze responded.
Geto Suguru and Nishiko had complicated expressions.
Le Yansi is not a madman. The fact that the "conservatives" have been the backbone of the magic world for thousands of years also proves that they are by no means ordinary people.
No one is a fool, and no one does not understand the pros and cons. On the contrary, because everyone is a "smart person", things become even more treacherous and changeable.
Le Yansi stared at Su Ze, waiting for his final statement.
"I'll talk to Tianyuan about the assimilation issue." Su Ze said slowly.
"Arrogant! Who do you think you are talking to--" The other old guys of the conservative faction could no longer hold back.
"You have no foundation at all, yet you dare to attempt such a thing—"
Le Yansi did not participate nor stop it, he just stood there quietly with his crutches.
Su Ze's words sounded willful and childish to anyone, like a child's desire to solve the problem of discord in the world.
Yoshinobu Yakumoto is one of the important representatives of the conservatives, but that does not mean he can unify all the differences within the conservatives.
Su Ze bent down, holding his head.
That group of people was so noisy that his head was about to explode...
If possible, I really don't want to use this trick...
I’m so tired…
"...Satoru."
Su Ze said tiredly, covering his face.
boom--
The large abandoned buildings beside Su Ze and his companions were reduced to ashes in an instant, and the forest dozens of meters away also melted into a large area of charred ruins.
Gojo Satoru's eyes were empty, and there was still some purple cursed energy remaining on his fingertips.
If he hadn't raised his finger just before launching the spell, the foundation would probably have been plowed thoroughly.
The chattering conservatives are much quieter.
——What kind of technique is that?
——Gojo Satoru’s new move?
——Isn’t “Cang” far from the limit?
Le Yansi was shocked. As soon as the two met, he noticed something unusual about Gojo Satoru.
"I want to find a new way." Su Ze endured the headache and fatigue, "You are all high-level core members, you must know more than us "first-level magicians"... Whether it's "assimilation" or Tianyuan, maybe we can find another way--"
The conservatives looked a little unhappy again.
"There's no need for us to fight to the death. Our goal is to solve the problem... It's nothing more than 'seeking common ground' while 'reserving differences'..."
Glass tried to use the reversal technique to relieve Su Ze's discomfort, but it had little effect.
The conservatives are a little restless again.
Su Ze held onto Nitsuko's arm and managed to stand up.
"...Besides, you can't beat us."
After these words were spoken, the old guys from the three royal families felt as if they had eaten a fly.
Every word spoken by this frail, skinny boy is full of gems.
……
Death Star Palace.
lower level.
Only Su Ze entered.
He slowly opened his eyes, and there was nothing in front of him. There was nothing under his feet either, but it felt hard and like the ground.
The fatigue seemed to ease a little, very slightly, but Su Ze felt it.
There was a slight noise beside me.
"Tianyuan... Lord." Su Ze slowly exhaled and turned around.
Look at the figure wearing a loose wizard robe and a hood.
"I thought you would call me 'stinky old woman'." Tianyuan's voice was long and lingering, and it was difficult to tell whether it was male or female under the influence of the barrier and cursed power.
"You're joking..." Su Ze forced a smile.
In Su Ze's opinion, Tianyuan did nothing wrong.
"You seem very tired. I have used a little bit of magic power, which should be able to relieve the pain a little bit—"
"...Thank you for your care, Master Tianyuan."
"Let's get to the point... You want to ask me about the 'Astral Plasma', right?"
Tian Yuan still spoke in a gentle and calm tone.
----
First of all, let’s talk about the image of Le Yansi. In my opinion, he is a traditional and typical "play safe" person.
It was fine to let Kyoto students kill Hu Zi, or to follow the "high-level" arrangement and put Ye Mo under house arrest and execute him.
But he is also a flesh-and-blood character, such as his attitude towards foreign enemies during the invasion, his own style...his personal relationship with Mr. Ye Moth (what he said to him at the end, etc.)...
In short, I think it is not something that can be simply judged as "good" or "bad". It is just a microcosm of countless conservatives.
Then there is Tianyuan...
…It’s hard to comment.
It’s unclear what she looked like before she evolved... I might as well just write that she wore a hood.
After careful research, I discovered the human image of Tianyuan in the painting at the end of Volume 23, iivv. See the comment section for the picture...
