Chapter 123 - Rika's Farewell Note
Jun went to Enjou’s house with the message. He told Enjou, Kazane, and Rika what the commander had said.Isamu headed to Souta’s house. As he drew near, he saw Haoyue’s group approaching it too.“Commander Isamu, I’m sorry I arrived late and wasn’t able to attend Commander Souta’s funeral!” said Haoyue.“It’s all right, Mr. Haoyue. Let’s go inside!” said Isamu, and they went inside.Isamu took three sticks of incense, then bowed before the red plaque bearing Souta Kuroba’s name on the altar. Flowers and candles stood beside it.Haoyue followed suit and bowed three times as a sign of respect. Afterward, they offered their respects and condolences to Souta’s family before heading to the seats that had been prepared for them.Many officials were in attendance, including Sena and her son. After some time, the entire Haruki family also arrived to offer their condo
Chapter 122 - Souta's Final Farewell
Later that morning, officials assembled at the royal palace. Soldiers lined the approaches as Kasen’s citizens gathered to pay their respects.People who had greeted Souta in the streets now waited quietly outside the hall where his body lay.Many remembered him stopping to hear a complaint or returning a commoner’s greeting. His noble birth and command had never kept him from speaking to them.Inside, his coffin stood before the mourners.“Commander Isamu! How could this have happened?” asked Sena.“I don’t understand either, Your Majesty. It all happened too quickly—right before my very eyes—and I couldn’t do a thing!” replied Isamu.“According to the soldiers, Commander Souta was killed by the Leader of the Three Flowers Organization! But wasn’t that man killed by a knight long ago?” asked Sena.“He lost a duel to a Dragon Eye Sect knight, Your Maje
Chapter 121 - Across the Open Sea
Kazan felt the Bō shift in his hand as Kenshin argued with Shigure. Shigure could seize his body; Kenshin could strike without borrowing it at all.Until now, Shigure had reached the world through Kazan’s senses and voice. To fight physically, he had needed control of Kazan’s body.Kenshin could move the Bō itself. The difference had just saved Kazan’s life—and left Takeru somewhere beyond his reach.“What have you been doing with him, Shigure? Is your job just to sleep?” asked Kenshin.“Do you think I’m a sleepyhead? Don’t you know that if one of us takes over the body of someone who doesn’t yet possess the power of a god, we’ll lose half of our Ki?” replied Shigure.“Because of your sleeping, this man would have died if I hadn’t arrived just in time,” said Kenshin.“My name is Shinra Kazan!” Kazan interrupted.“I didn’t
Chapter 120 - Xinyue Vanishes
“Master Haoyue!”It was the small hours of the following morning when Haoyue reached his rented house with his escort. A Kishi hurried to greet him.“Have any of my bodyguards returned yet?” asked Haoyue.“Yes, sir!” replied the Kishi.“All right, return to your post!”The Kishi bowed and returned to his post, while Haoyue went to meet one of the Kishi who had returned earlier.“Oh, I’m sorry, sir, I didn’t know you were here!” said the Kishi, who looked sleepy.“It’s all right! I just wanted to ask, did Xinyue ask you anything or leave a message earlier?” asked Haoyue.“I haven’t seen her since I returned, sir. The house guard says she went to her room yesterday afternoon.”“That means she’s already asleep! You and the others should get some rest!” said Haoyue, then walked toward Xinyue’s r
Chapter 119 - The Voice Within the Golden Bō
“Give me back that Bō!” Takeru shouted as he tried to attack and snatch the Golden Bō from Kazan’s hand.Kazan’s hand moved before he could decide how to answer. The Bō knocked Takeru’s reaching arm aside.Its tip drove toward the old man’s chest. Takeru caught it against his right palm, stopping the first thrust.The shaft pressed forward again, this time with a force Kazan had not supplied.Takeru skidded backward through the sand.He shook his right hand. It trembled, half-numb. How could the young man still strike like this after exhausting himself?He gathered Ki for another attack and felt the hollowed space in his reserves. The Bō had taken far more than a quarter of what he had left.His eyes returned to the dragon carving. He still wanted it.“Three-Colored Flower Stems!”Metal flashed between Takeru’s fingers. A spray of flower stems flew at Kazan, who spun
Chapter 118 - The Golden Bō Chooses Its Master
Kazan’s breathing shortened. Flight, the red transformation, and the repeated wind attacks were eating into the same reserve. He was gaining room, not energy.He brought his hands together. Wind compressed into a three-sided mass, one sharp corner angled down at Takeru.More than half his remaining Ki went into holding that shape. His arms began to tremble.Takeru planted his feet and gathered a red mass of Ki between his palms.Kazan thrust both hands down. The unnamed attack tore through the air toward him.Takeru answered with his own blast. The two forces struck above the clearing.BOOM!The impact flattened the nearest trees.“I’ve never seen anything like this…” Haoyue raised an arm across his face.Wood and sand struck the trees around his shelter. He and his escort fell back before the flying debris.For a moment, the two masses held. Then the point of Kazan’s wind atta
