Chapter 45
what happened……?
The dense forest in the Conjuration College is rustling, the clear blue sky is high and far away, and it is as vast as no boundary. The moist wind wrapped in the fragrance of grass and trees emerges from the forest, gently brushing the surface of the skin, it is slightly cool With such a soft feeling, even the heavy depression in my heart seems to be able to dissipate soundlessly in this world.
Everything is the smell of freedom in the imagination.
Shuji Tsushima was nailed to the spot as if rooted under his feet, unable to move even a single step.
There was still the soft touch of Tsushima Reo's palm in his hand, but the scene in front of him was as weird and absurd as a boundless hell, so that he had a little doubt about the world he was in.
Is all this real?
Is all this illusory?
From stepping out of Tianyuan's enchantment, to the fatal mark appearing on Lianyang's neck, to Wujo Wu and Xia Youjie's warning and disappearance, everything happened too fast.
So much so that when the deadly arrow passed through the barrier and showed a hideous face, he couldn't react.
Shuji Tsushima walked out of the passage opened for them by Tianyuan with his back to the barrier. Before Reo Tsushima was hit, he didn't even notice that there was a dangerous object approaching behind him, but Reo Tsushima walked out at the last moment. He turned his head as if feeling something, which means that he actually faced the heavy arrow that was speeding towards him.
And if that arrow was shot by Tianyuan, or if Reo Tsushima noticed the arrow, then even if Reo Tsushima couldn't avoid the deadly arrow in the end, he would definitely make a slight movement to let Shuji Tsushima noticed.
but.
No, there was no change, everything was calm, gentle and gentle like a calm sea, even Shuji Tsushima couldn't help relaxing his body and mind, thinking that everything was safe and moving steadily towards what they hoped for direction.
Then this can only explain one thing - just like the scarlet mark that appeared on Lianyang's neck, that arrow also uses [Barrier] as a safety bolt. It was launched in a short time and at a very short distance. The most likely thing was to shoot directly from the surface of the enchantment, and even Tsushima Reo didn't even have time to make a slight resistance.
but why?Why?Why?
Even when Lianyang was surrounded by those disgusting high-level people in the magic world, Shuji Tsushima had the confidence that Lianyang would never die.
As long as there are human beings, there are selfish desires. As long as there are selfish desires in the heart, it is absolutely impossible to refuse the wishing machine that can realize all wishes, even if someone realizes the danger of Lianyang and is determined to eradicate him.
But do you really not hesitate at the moment of doing it?Can you really confirm that you have no regrets in your heart?Is it true that you will not feel regret when you think about today in the future?
It is a miracle that can satisfy all human desires and bear all human malice, which can no longer be reproduced. Do you really, really want to kill it?
When such an interrogation like a devil's babbling arises in his heart, it is the time when all the enemies who stand against Lianyang are defeated.
There is nothing wrong with the fact that Reo Tsushima is just an ordinary child with no resistance, but human beings will always lose to their own endless desires that can never be satisfied, right?
So why—why was Lian Yang killed? !
The sorrow that seemed to be frozen by the polar wind and frost surged and boiled, tearing Shuji Tsushima's hard and cold shell, and flooding him like magma.
Tsushima Shuji's kite-colored pupils trembled violently like a collapse. He stood there unable to move, using his own eyes to deeply engrave the scene in front of him in his mind over and over again.
His identical twin brother was impaled through the larynx and nailed to a tall tree, and the sharp arrow penetrated Reo Tsushima's slender, vulnerable neck and buried it deep in the solid tree trunk Among them, only the tail feathers of a strange-looking cube full of gaps were left hanging, trembling slightly in the remaining power.
The cervical vertebrae were broken, the limbs and torso became completely unconscious, gurgling fine blood bubbles emerged from the leaky throat, and a hoarse and indistinct sound came out with difficulty from the child's slightly opened mouth.
He's still breathing.
He is not dead yet.
Reo Tsushima struggled to lift up his almost torn neck, and looked at his brother who was looking up at him with those still clear black eyes that were not stained at all.
The expression on his gentle yet stubborn brother's face, who had been trying to reach out and hold his hand, was indescribably blank.
The older brother was looking at him.
His eyes were pleading for help.
[Don't die, don't die...don't die! ! ]
It was a strong, curse-like love and retention.
The neck hurts, I can't breathe, the blood flows into the trachea, making people want to cough uncontrollably, Tsushima Reo opened his mouth to speak, but the blood gushes out of the mouth first.
The vocal cords trembled like dying mosquitoes, but they could only make a sound that was too weak to be heard.
[Don't, don't cry...]
Speechless.
Reo Tsushima realized this fact, so he accepted it calmly and gave up trying to say anything to his brother.
He just endured the severe pain caused by the wound on his neck, and as always, he showed a bright and unshame smile to Shuji Tsushima crookedly.
——Why should you be sad?Everyone is going to die sooner or later, he just walked towards his own preordained fate.
Tsushima Reo thought so confused.
——But, for some reason, seeing his brother sad, he couldn't help but feel a little sad.
Probably in a very short moment, just like the revolving lantern before death that people often say, what Reo Tsushima recalled in his mind was full of warm and beautiful memories.
As twins who were supposed to be intimate and grew up together, the time he spent with his elder brother was actually very short. In his life so far, he had only spent a few months together.
In that short time, most of the time was dull and difficult to survive under the oppression and contempt of the adults. My brother's heart was always filled with all kinds of worries and heavy thoughts. My brother wanted to be free. , I want dignity, I want to live with him without restraint, I want a simple world where I can laugh and laugh. For this goal, my brother has worked very hard to learn various things. He is busy and sad , it is difficult to find time to play with Reo Tsushima.
But what Reo Tsushima wanted was not so complicated.
He likes to smile, likes toss and catch, likes to chase each other, likes sweet pastries, and most likes his brother.
As long as he can see his brother stretching his brows and eyes and smiling at him, that's enough.
Reo Tsushima counted down his short and boring life page by page, until he recalled his favorite afternoon, and stopped there with satisfaction.
It was an afternoon as bright as today, in the narrow courtyard, colorful balls were thrown high into the clear blue sky, my brother smiled brightly, and the gentle iris-colored pupils were filled with pure stars like stars. joy.
The five senses in reality were all weakened in the throes of death. His eyes were covered with a sand-gray net, and there was a long and long-lasting low hum from his ears. The pain was almost like a hallucination. The smell of blood gradually faded away.
The world is peaceful.
Only in the illusion of memory, the smile that my brother showed to him became more and more clear.
Reyo Tsushima, who had lost consciousness, did not know that the end of the arrow that shattered his larynx, and the cube that was firmly fixed with a charm trembled violently at that moment, like a decoration The slits of the cube are all opened in a moment, and the box of the cube is completely opened, and the six sides are pulled like a starfish to bind Reo Tsushima in the middle, revealing its whole picture—it is a living enchantment, death The sealing spell transformed from the physical body of the later monk Genshin, which is rumored to be able to seal all the [Prison Gate Frontier] that exists in the world.
Concerned about the curse spirit [Erina] that co-existed with him in Rei Tsushima, Tian Yuan chose to take out the precious sealing spell under the balance, and decided to use it on Reo Tsushima, in case Reo Tsushima After death, Erina will be furious and out of control.
After all, after seeing the process of Erina fulfilling his wish with his own eyes, Tian Yuan has already deeply understood how the magic world was turned into what it is by this immature child in front of him.
Relying on the enchantment that envelops the whole of Japan, the magic power is restricted within Japan, making all lands except Japan a barren land with low magic power, and only the conjurers in Japan are deprived of high magic power. Highly held, has a very high status and power.
With this achievement alone, Tianyuan has been regarded as an unshakable cornerstone by the high-level of the entire magic world. Since the millennium, Tianyuan has enjoyed endless power, money, and status, and because of his own [immortality] magic formula, he has endless power. As long as he maintains the status quo, he can sit high above the sky, surpass most human beings, and enjoy the treatment that ordinary people cannot have in a lifetime.
Tianyuan, who has everything, has no other desires. Even the episode where he failed to assimilate with the astral body this time ended after he made a wish to Erina.
What he needs is to maintain the status quo.
That's the problem.
After truly realizing the frightening nature of Erina's ability, Tian Yuan suddenly had many doubts in his heart.
What if someone made a wish to Reyo Tsushima to replace him in the future?What if someone made a wish to Reyo Tsushima in the future to obtain the [immortality] technique?What if he disturbed the pattern of the magic world again and threatened his status?
——And Tsushima Reo is the one who will break the current structure of the magic world and the status quo that he has tried his best to maintain.
Because of such a simple reason, Tian Yuan made the move without much thought.
For him who excelled in world enchantment, six-eyes and magic spells are not a threat. If he wants to kill, there are thousands of ways. This group of youngsters who are not even a fraction of his age can be called He can be regarded as a rising star, but when it comes to tactics and planning, he is far behind him.
And Reyo Tsushima doesn't have the slightest self-protection ability, and his elder brother is just an ordinary person without magic power except for a little bit of intelligence.
Make a mark on Tsushima Reo's neck, take the arrow and [Prison Gate Frontier] out of the warehouse where the spell is stored, connect the two with a spell, and then hide it in the barrier, so far All must be completed before Gojo Satoru arrives.
Then calculated the time difference, moved Wujo Wu and Xia Youjie away from the two children, aimed at the mark on Tsushima Reo's neck, shot the arrow, and cut open his carotid artery with a "poof, chi" sound, and finally Then use the revolving lantern before death to complete the sealing condition of [Prison Gate Frontier] to spend 1 minute in the brain, and seal the body of Reyo Tsushima together with the special-grade cursed spirit [Erina]——
It's such a simple tactic.
