Chapter 265 - Chapter : 261 : This Is Not What It Used To Be

Although under Sebastian's command, Izumo can forge all kinds of powerful weapons, but as a demon, he still feels a little uncomfortable working for a human being. Originally, before they were caught, the two still had a plan to escape, but after seeing Inuyasha, who is not even considered Sebastian's apprentice, defeat Sesshomaru, the two lost the idea of escape. Sesshomaru is General Toga's biological son, and Izumo has been following the General all the time and knows how strong he is. But even so, there is still no way to win against Inuyasha.

In addition, although they didn't know how strong Sebastian's true strength was, some things that he had revealed over the years were enough to make them give up completely. Previously, that bloody battle had already left an indelible impression on him. In an instant, an army of monsters was wiped out.

After being captured for a long time, Izumo also slowly accepted his current life. In addition to spending some time every day patrolling and guarding the area, he is actually very free, and Sebastian has basically never interfered in his life, except that when he needs to forge certain weapons, he will ask for them. And he also learned a lot of new knowledge from him, which he couldn't understand at all before.

Izumo was no longer as depressed as when he was just caught. Compared with those monsters who were easily wiped out, they were already very lucky.

"By the way, your Highness must have known about the news of the appearance of the Jewel of Four Souls. If I remember correctly, Your Highness, you should have always wanted the Jewel." Akihiko walked beside Inuyasha, with his eyes turning rapidly.

He is different from Izumo, his master, who has accepted his fate and wants to stay here. Akihiko has long been tired of the days of blacksmithing and patrolling every day, so he has been trying to find a way to escape, but he has never had a chance. Although Sebastian is not here, Inuyasha is always guarding the Battle Lab.

Now, Inuyasha's strength is no less than Sesshomaru's, and he is definitely not his opponent's opponent. So Akihiko wanted to get close to the other party, find out the other party's weaknesses, and take advantage to escape. It would be even better if you could find an opportunity to drive him away.

Seeing Inuyasha looking at him with interest, Akihiko's eyes flashed a little, and he continued, "Your Highness, you could walk freely a long time ago; why don't you go back?"

"Not interested." Seeing Akihiko's excited appearance, a cunning light flashed in Inuyasha's eyes.

In fact, a long time ago, Inuyasha really wanted to get the Jewel, but after practicing with Sebastian, he gained the power to defeat Sesshomaru, so he completely lost interest in the item. The reason why he wants to obtain the jewel is to become a complete demon so that he will no longer be discriminated against and ridiculed by others, and in addition, to not lose his power.

But now, after Inuyasha became the patrolling guard of the village, no one would laugh at him. On the contrary, Inuyasha could feel the respect of the residents. That is respect from the heart. Therefore, for Inuyasha, the jewel has lost its appeal. Since he no longer pursued it, Inuyasha was naturally not interested in Akihiko's proposal.

However, from Akihiko's appearance, Inuyasha noticed something abnormal. After thinking about it, he guessed his thoughts, thinking of finding a way to teach him a good lesson. It was raining lightly in the sky, and there were only a few pedestrians carrying umbrellas on the street.

"Master, there are more and more monsters spying on us secretly. If this continues, we will definitely become the target of public criticism." In the shrine of the Yōkai Taijiya Village, a middle-aged priestess knelt down in front of an old priestess, and she poured the old priestess a cup of hot tea. Frowning, her tone was full of worry.

Not long ago, they obtained the jewel from a certain monster. Originally, after this incident, it raised the reputation of the village, but not everyone was happy. Since it was brought back, the entire place has become a place that all monsters covet.

In just over a dozen days, the village was attacked countless times by monsters, and a large number of priests and priestesses died due to this. This has completely shattered the village, which had been in jeopardy due to the rise of Sebastian in the past few years.

Countless people were lost, the economy was damaged, and the village could be said to be in jeopardy. If it weren't for the strength of the old priestess, who organized everyone to repel wave after wave of monsters, I am afraid that the village of eliminating demons would have been wiped out by now.

Seeing that the old priestess had no intention of speaking, the middle-aged priestess couldn't help sighing, "It would have been nice if Kikyō and Tsubaki hadn't left us back then. Both of them are extraordinary talents who have never been born in the world."

"Okay, go down." The old priestess sighed softly, then waved her hand to interrupt the woman in front of her. Her wrinkled face looked full of wisdom, but she couldn't see any joy or anger.

When Kikyō and Tsubaki left the village, no one in the village stopped them, especially when Tsubaki left; there were even many people who spoke badly, thinking that the other party was a traitor.

But what everyone didn't expect was that after Kikyō and Tsubaki left the village, in a short period of time, their strength changed dramatically, and they quickly became famous, even in some demon kingdoms. The two contributed a lot to G.D.I.'s rise. In a sense, the decline of the Village also started at that time.

The stronger the strength of Tsubaki and Kikyō, the more it proves how bad the vision of the many priests and priestesses in the village was. The whole village has become a joke of the entire world because of the departure of Kikyō and Tsubaki.

"Cough... As a teacher, I regret it." After coughing a few times violently, the old priestess, who covered her mouth, looked at the blood in the middle of her palm, and her eyes dimmed.

Over the years, what she regrets the most is that she didn't stand up and say a fair word for Tsubaki back then. She naturally knew that the words about her circulating were all false, but she acquiesced in that kind of behavior. If she had stopped her at that time, perhaps Tsubaki would not have left, and she would not face the situation of no successor now.
