Chapter 47 - Chapter 48: Some Things Are Above All Else.

A useless husband, a wife whose heart is gradually changing...

A few inappropriate things appeared in his mind. Zenin Kiyoshi shook his head violently, deleting that strange feeling.

He shouldn't always think about those messy things. He was now saving Hanami, and also giving her a better life.

He wanted Hanami to live for herself, not to be forcibly saddled with the so-called future great cause of Cursed Spirits by Jogo.

After getting along for these few days, Zenin Kiyoshi could actually feel that Hanami was essentially a very gentle female. Her ending should not be that pile of shredded meat on the rocks.

She did not like to fight. Hanami had told him this herself.

Hanami said that every time she fought, she would unconsciously kill some flowers, plants, and trees. If she encountered a strong enemy, she would even have to take the initiative to absorb all the plant life force around her. This was in itself a kind of pain for her, who loved flowers, plants, and trees.

If Jogo really cared about Hanami, he should have been able to see her pain, he should have been able to perceive her sadness.

Whether he perceived it and still let Hanami fight, or did not perceive it at all, both of these could clearly show that what Jogo cared about was never Hanami, but the great cause of Cursed Spirits that he was obsessed with in his heart.

To brainwash a companion who knows nothing, and let her walk on the path you designed for her in pain, such a care is better than not having it.

It is just like the relationship between a child and their parents.

A child comes into this world because of their parents, but they definitely do not come into this world for their parents.

Everyone is independent, and everyone has the right to live for themselves.

Thinking of this, Zenin Kiyoshi became much more open-minded about the relationship between Jogo and Hanami.

He is saving Hanami!

However, before that, he still had other companions waiting for him.

"Sister Hanami, I have to go out for a while. A friend of mine is here. I'll be back soon. You can watch TV first. Remember to leave before old man Zenin Naobito comes back. The old man is old-fashioned and may not be able to accept this situation now."

Hanami heard the worry in Zenin Kiyoshi's words. She liked this feeling of being considered by others at all times, so she replied cheerfully:

"Okay, don't worry. You should come back early too, Kiyoshi. I don't know if she is still watching you now. Anyway, if there is danger, just break this branch, and I will be by your side immediately."

As Hanami spoke, she broke off the branch from her eye.

Looking at the branch that Hanami handed over, the corner of Zenin Kiyoshi's mouth twitched slightly, and he said with some astonishment:

"Can this be broken directly?! Won't it hurt?!"

Hanami touched her head with some embarrassment and explained to Zenin Kiyoshi:

"This actually doesn't grow in my eyes. Jogo told me that he wanted my appearance to be more frightening, so he made this thing. But before I met you, I was really planning to completely connect this thing with the optic nerve, because it would be more convenient to see things that way."

Hearing Hanami's words, Zenin Kiyoshi recalled the scene in the Shibuya subway station where Gojo Satoru had forcibly pulled the branch out of her eye. He coughed twice and said:

"Don't care about others' opinions, Sister Hanami. Whatever you think is beautiful, then become that way."

Hearing Zenin Kiyoshi's words that once again cared about her emotions, Hanami's mood became even better. She smiled and nodded, then said:

"Yes! I will!"

Zenin Kiyoshi closed the door, but Hanami's嘱咐 sound still came through the door panel.

It was already the sixth time she had嘱咐 him. Zenin Kiyoshi shook his head with some helplessness. A side of Hanami that was completely different from the original story had been completely developed by him.

By the way, there's also a problem with this word!

He slapped himself twice. Zenin Kiyoshi decided to watch less of similar things when he went back later.

He glanced at the elevator, which he would have to wait for a long time, and decisively chose to take the stairs. It was just going downstairs, and taking the stairs was actually more comfortable.

As for going upstairs, he would wait as long as he could.

He walked towards the small alley where he had agreed to meet with Suguru Geto before. Although it was not Saturday today, he would be leaving Tokyo for a while after tonight. If he didn't take this opportunity to try his luck, he would have to find a way to contact Geto later.

During the last chat with Suguru Geto, he had already known that Geto was now in the third grade of elementary school, and students of this grade usually finished school around 2:30 in the afternoon.

With Geto's personality, he would most likely be wandering around here. After all, the small alley they had agreed on was indeed a famous monster-spawning cage in the vicinity.

There were even special urban legends born in this alley, such as "Kyoto's Fiercest Alley," "The Dark Road Where Death Appears," "The Cursed Land Covered in Blood"...

There were all kinds of exaggerated urban legends, but it was indeed true that the amount of cursed energy in this alley was more than in other places.

Perhaps it was because there were schools and companies nearby?

Everyone's resentment was concentrated here?

Although some people would say that what resentment could a child have from going to school, Zenin Kiyoshi had always disagreed with this view.

An adult's heart is big, and the things they encounter are also big. A child's heart is small, and the things they encounter are also small.

But a big thing falling on an adult's heart, and a small thing falling on a child's heart, the pain and sadness caused are actually similar.

In fact, children may be even more painful because of the purity of their emotions and life.

Just as Zenin Kiyoshi was thinking about these problems, a girl's scream suddenly came from the depths of the alley not far away.

Hearing that voice, Zenin Kiyoshi rushed towards the depths of the alley without any hesitation.

In fact, he was in such a hurry that he didn't even notice that he had accidentally shattered a black thin film.

And just as Zenin Kiyoshi shattered that thin film, a black crow flew up from behind him.

In the crow's bright red eyes, Zenin Kiyoshi's slightly anxious expression was reflected.

The cursed energy in the depths of the alley was not strong. It was a Cursed Spirit that he could handle.

Since he had the ability to save people, Zenin Kiyoshi would not be stingy with that kindness.

The world was already bad enough. If even he had to follow this damn world, then it would be too numb.

Some things are above all else.

With a body strengthened by Heavenly Restriction, plus the cursed energy of a Grade 1 sorcerer, the speed that Zenin Kiyoshi's body burst out with was completely more than the 10% strength of a Heavenly Restriction body.

And just as he rushed into the alley, a girl in a miko's uniform was currently crawling towards him with tears and snot all over her face.
