Chapter 205: Starting with 0 frames, no discussion.
When Yu Bai and the others arrived here, they sensed the demonic aura of Kidomaru.
For Nura Rikuo, Keikain Yura, and the others, this might be a troublesome ability, but for Yu Bai and his group of four, this domain is nothing more than an obstacle that can be easily dismantled.
Therefore, Yu Bai directly used his spatial abilities to teleport them into this space.
Upon arrival, I heard Hidemoto Keikain say that Abe no Seimei was a man who stood on the stage of history, manipulating humanity and also controlling the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons.
If someone didn't know better, they might think Abe no Seimei was some kind of behind-the-scenes dark mastermind from a movie or TV show.
It's no wonder Yu Bai couldn't help but laugh out loud, and Bu Yue and Gilgamesh, who knew the truth, couldn't help but smile.
However, in Abe no Seimei's eyes, this smile was not like the playful banter between friends that Yu Bai shared, but rather a blatant mockery from an "enemy"!
"Stop laughing, Lady Toyotsuki."
Abe no Seimei felt somewhat helpless; he felt he had been completely and utterly wronged.
He didn't, he didn't. The accusation of controlling humans or manipulating a parade of demons was too much for him to bear.
I'm just an ordinary Onmyoji... well, a somewhat powerful ordinary Onmyoji.
How come people a thousand years later portray themselves as some heinous villain?
If Abe no Seimei were to express his thoughts in modern terms, it would be: "Officer, he's slandering me! He's slandering me!"
At this moment, the calmer Abe no Seimei appeared on the surface, the more explosive his inner thoughts were.
And what does it mean to control a hundred demons at night? How could an Onmyoji control a hundred demons at night?
Although Abe no Seimei admitted that he had a good relationship with many yokai when he was alive, and some yokai would even voluntarily be taken in by him as shikigami to assist him in battle, he absolutely did not lead the Hyakki Yagyō (Night Parade of One Hundred Demons)!
To put it bluntly, isn't this just a demon leader leading his demons in a street parade? He even used beans to scatter at those demons back then.
So how could an Onmyoji become the leader of yokai? This statement must be incredibly embarrassing for Shuten-dōji and Ōtengu!
Besides, his mother is clearly Kuzunoha, not Hagoromo Gitsune!
Abe no Seimei reflected on his life, noting that the first half of his life was dedicated to learning Onmyōdō (the art of Yin and Yang) and protecting the peace of Heian-kyō (the capital of Japan). The second half, however, required him to split himself into two sides, black and white, in order to defeat the Yamata no Orochi (the eighth serpent).
However, Orochi returned with a vengeance. Every day, he was either cleaning up the messes left by his other self or protecting Heian-kyo, preparing to defeat Orochi once again.
Finally, everything settled down, and I felt complete, ready to begin my retirement.
So where would I find the time to lead the Hundred Demons Parade?
At most, during the Black and White Seimei era, Black Seimei would search for powerful yokai and try to entice them to join his "cult," while White Seimei would lead another group of yokai shikigami to counterattack... Huh?
"Sigh~"
Suddenly realizing that something seemed amiss, Abe no Seimei pressed his bat fan against his chin and fell into deep thought.
Regardless of how Abe no Seimei was deep in thought, the others on the other side were also instantly incredulous when they heard Yu Bai address the silver-haired Onmyoji as Abe no Seimei.
After all, what would they think if the legendary mastermind suddenly appeared right in front of them?
Before Nura Rikuo's side could even speak, Kidomaru jumped out impatiently: "Lord Seimei? No! You're not Lord Seimei! Lord Seimei hasn't been born by Lord Hagoromo Gitsune yet! How could you possibly be Abe no Seimei? And you silver-haired brat, you must be talking nonsense!"
The silver-haired youth said that the man beside him dressed in Onmyoji attire was Abe no Seimei. So what is their Hagoromo-gitsune-sama conceiving right now? What has been their long-held expectation?
Before Kidomaru could finish speaking, the sword in his hand was already pointed directly at Abe no Seimei and Yu Bai. With a swift movement, it seemed as if he was about to slash at Yu Bai and Abe no Seimei.
However, he stirred up a hornet's nest with this action.
To be precise, if he was only referring to Abe no Seimei, then apart from Yu Bai, the other two would probably be watching the situation unfold with a sense of amusement.
However, there was still room for error in the direction that Kidomaru's sword was pointing, in addition to the words he had just said.
Very well, you've directly crossed the line with two close friends.
"Scum! Who gave you permission, you lowly creature, to point your blade at my dearest friend?" Gilgamesh roared.
Accompanied by an overwhelming and terrifying pressure, one golden circle after another lit up the entire space behind him, and countless treasures shot towards Kidomaru from those ripples with a world-destroying force.
What a great zero-frame start!
"What the hell is that!"
The sudden attack caught everyone off guard. Yura Hanakain stared wide-eyed at the approaching Gate of Babylon, her body paralyzed with fear.
"Yura, run! We can't stop this!" Keikain Hidemoto shouted.
As the most talented and strongest head of the Kakeruin family in history, Hidemoto Kakeruin had encountered some powerful enemies in his time, but he had never met anyone with such terrifying strength.
"Everyone! Hide!"
This was the first time Nura Rikuo had ever seen such a scene. Whether it was fighting Onigumo or other yokai organizations, no person or yokai had ever exerted such terrifying pressure on him.
As the one who wields "fear," he feels that he is the one being suppressed by "fear" when faced with the unreasonable onslaught of the King of Heroes' Gate of Babylon.
At this moment, Rikuo Nura felt as if everyone was going to die under the barrage of magical artifacts. It wasn't that he didn't want to escape, but that there was nowhere to escape.
Furthermore, because of his anger, Bu Yue's divine power, belonging to the God of Earth's Desolation, transformed into a thick black mist that enveloped everyone.
Although his target was Kidomaru, who pointed a knife at Toyotsuki and called him a brat, the divine pressure he exuded was enough to give the other people and demons present a hard time.
However, just when they thought they were really going to die there, a melodious piano tune suddenly rang out.
Then, a green shield appeared around them, tightly enveloping them.
"boom!!"
Immediately afterwards, one Noble Phantasm after another slammed down on Kidomaru.
Although his strength was not bad among demons, he was completely insignificant in the eyes of the two great gods, Gilgamesh and Fuyuki.
In just a moment, Kidomaru and his demon domain disappeared from everyone's sight along with those golden treasures.
The Nura Clan and the Kakaiin Clan, however, were unharmed thanks to Yu Bai's use of Fujin and the use of the long song skill [Plum Blossom Melody] (a shield) at the crucial moment. They watched all this unfold, their hearts filled with awe.
……
Nura Clan & Kakein: Kidomaru, if you don't believe me, fine, but why are you pointing a knife at people? Now look what happened! Happy now? (The group, feeling like they were almost killed by a Noble Phantasm) We will never forgive you, you brainless idiot who dragged us down with you! QAQ
Gilgamesh & Buyue: Someone said bad things about a close friend and even tried to threaten him with a knife. They came over as soon as they smelled the scent and attacked without hesitation, starting with zero frames.
