Chapter 348: The Origin Master's Scripture and the Future Uncle's Encouragement

~13 min read 2,424 words

One cup of tea had just been finished when a group arrived at Garan no Dou.

"This is Araya Souren, my classmate from my London days, a magecraft practitioner who has lived over 200 years, formerly a monk, and well-versed in Origin Knowledge."

"This is Miss Tohsaka, the Employer who hired you this time; beside her is Ryougi Shiki, a girl who developed Killing Impulses due to her special Origin, and the one you need to help solve problems."

Aozaki Touko introduced both sides.

"I am Araya."

The man nodded slightly to the girls.

However, upon hearing his voice, Karen and Rin Tohsaka were somewhat stunned.

"What help?"

Correct content (read at %!

He spoke very bluntly, but when the Saiyan boy's gaze turned dangerous, as if he might strike to eliminate this rival stealing his wife, Kanata then said: "However, as for competition, I have already given up."

That was Kanata; the other party no longer came to eat lunch with them at noon at school.

Ryougi Shiki shook her head and said, the Female Personality switched back again.

"Please extend your hand; I will use Soul Magecraft to probe your Origin."

In the case, Ryougi Shiki, who slew the murderer with her own hand, was also ruled as Self-Defense.

"This may be a matter of principle."

"Master Araya makes sense; would you like to consult with him?"

"Uh, how should I put this to you, well, it's basically that feeling where you really want something, but you know you can never obtain it."

Thus, this affliction brought by the Origin underwent Therapy execution very professionally and perfectly.

Rin Tohsaka inserted herself into the conversation, looking at Aozaki Touko, and explained what happened that morning.

If not for his eyes being able to precisely capture the other's existence, Broly would have thought that inside this Abandoned Building office, there was no one else besides Aozaki Touko.

The boy explained.

"Please explain things clearly to Ryougi Shiki; that's how it will be from now on."

Just as he finished speaking, Kanata slapped his forehead; Broly didn't notice, which was normal.

Receiving the Buddhist Scripture, Ryougi Shiki's expression was somewhat subtle.

"No."

"I think we are also friends; you won't make me uncomfortable, right?"

Araya Souren is currently teaching Ryougi Shiki (Weave) two Outer Personalities how to control the Inner Personality (Root Style).

Rin Tohsaka looked at Ryougi Shiki.

"There is a problem, but it's not serious; she's just one step closer to awakening her Origin."

"There is that possibility."

"What's the point of leaving that person in a space of solitude?"

Kanata: "……"

"What do you want to ask?"

"Origin only determines a person's direction; as for whether it's good or bad, it depends on what Origin it is."

"Wait, if something like an Origin awakens, isn't that terrible? Wouldn't it cause a huge change in personality?"

【If I were to take the person before my eyes back to meet my own father, I wonder if it wouldn't be interesting...】

"This is the【Lotus Sutra】; you may take it."

Those with better aptitude are more affected, and she belongs to the type with very high aptitude.

"That is, watching you two being lovey-dovey makes me feel heartache and heartbreak; can you understand the feeling of heartbreak?"

"Uh, you don't understand? That's fine too." Kanata scratched his head, squatted down to be eye-level with the boy, and said seriously: "Anyway, Broly, you just need to know that I've given up competing with you and won't pursue Ryougi Shiki."

Broly got straight to the point.

Broly asked uncertainly.

"Oh."

"Rest assured, I'll pay Master Araya's Appearance Fee without missing a cent, and I won't short you a single point of your Introduction Fee either."

"Actually, I don't mind collecting an extra share of money."

"Fine."

"Words spoken by a magecraft practitioner who has lived over two hundred years really have no persuasiveness."

Hearing this, the Magic Doll lady's brows finally relaxed.

Kanata spoke the truth.

Ryougi Shiki (Weave) felt somewhat strange.

Even though a new weekend had arrived, Broly brought his wives from two cities out for a dinner party, and even invited his Younger Sister along, but the only one who came was Kokutou Azaka alone.

"But there is also some resentment."

Bai Chun Li Xu was a Precedent, so Kokutou Azaka asked this question.

Ryougi Shiki had returned to Normal Life, and if there was anything different from before, it was probably that she now always held a Buddhist Scripture while reading.

Being looked at with subtle gazes by the girl and the young girl, Araya Souren's complexion didn't change much, but he asked.

Aozaki Touko shrugged her shoulders, and if she bought fewer weird collectibles and didn't spend money so lavishly, she might already be a Rich Woman.

"On the contrary, my life was thus stagnated, allowing me to live from over two hundred years ago until now."

"This is actually a Misunderstanding."

If one turned away and only looked at the back and listened to the voice, one might even think it was the same person.

"Why do you look at me with that kind of gaze?"

Kokutou Mikiya: "……"

Araya Souren Think, Complexion Not Change.

"Not Nun, but Buddhist Scripture Nurture Wisdom, when you can use your own Subjective Consciousness to control Id Consciousness, even if Awakening Origin, can also Restrain Id Behavior."

"All Things Are Formless, Everything Is Mind-Generated."

"Huh?"

Kokutou Mikiya Nod, then Shake Head say.

"Don't understand."

"Tohsaka, This Time treatment cost, I later will let Qiu Long Transfer to you."

Araya Souren Turn Head look at boy.

"You recently Somewhat Abnormal, Shiki she Somewhat Worry."

If Not Ryougi Family have Underworld Background and Compare Low-key, maybe Guanbu City Government still want give girl one Righteous Courage Good Citizen Medal.

"Master, Shiki This Kind Mindset, whether exist Problem?"

Almost Forgot This Child No Common Sense.

Girl tone change, then add say.

Collision Sound, Collision Temperament, this just Small Episode.

Aozaki Touko Now say.

Kokutou Mikiya Lie On Bed, Sudden hear Knock on Window, immediately Climb Up.

"Since Danger, then how can stop Ryougi Shiki Origin Awakening?"

【White Pure Lio Chess Piece, already Be Killed?】

Kill Enemy Of Course Refreshing.

"I actually Not Afraid death."

Whole Person Temperament more and more Dustless, give Broly one First Meeting feeling, and besides Ryougi Shiki Body happen Change, also have another person also In Change.

Broly Immediately say.

"This Problem you not must yourself Ask Her?"

"We later will be Most Intimate Family, you in say what Outsider Words?"

Not Only similar, simply same Voice Actor, full of pleasant Breath.

Broly Think, think of before just get normal food, but because Happiness Points insufficient and must lose it time feeling, then feel uncomfortable.

Open Window, See WaiTou boy, youth not Surprise boy how climb up Balcony, just Somewhat Strange other come find self Do What.

She Origin Awakening almost inevitable thing, difference only in time early late Problem."

"Eh, Broly, you how come?"

Boy point out.

Rin Tohsaka big hand wave, generous say.

"What meaning?"

"Thump thump……"

"She last time say Body can give me, but Heart forever yours."

"Qi?"

"No wonder I feel your Body Breath Strange." Araya Souren straight to point, to Ryougi Shiki say.

Broly ask out.

"Is It still for last time, Shiki Sister you kill that Bad Guy thing, In Worry?"

"But, although not close, but I and you and Shiki still friends, later, if you all have what need me help, also don't polite, can help definitely help."

【Switched Personality?】

"I not have what want ask."

"In School Noon time, you all not how together eat with us."

"I Brother have matter cannot come, only come me one."

Broly puzzled look at him.

"So, I Destined die?"

"But Police all say I Self-Defense, that Guy actually still This Kind Calculating?"

Araya Souren Patience make Explanation.

May 21, White Pure Lio Case already Case Closed.

Broly again ask.

"This ah, because before, I also want Pursue Shiki."

"But This and you distance us what Relationship?"

"People eventually one death."

Aozaki Touko help Explain One Sentence.

"Eh?"

Of Course, in Id Root Existence Self-Awareness situation, want achieve Control Impossible Thing. But Araya Souren Don't Know Root Existence, Ryougi Shiki (Weave) also Don't Know Self Body Internal have Third Personality Existence.

Karen think.

Araya Souren Initiative Ask.

"World very big, exactly same Two People perhaps Non-existent, but extremely similar Two People yet have, This Not Strange."

"This Child can detect Creature activity time Life Breath, and your Life Breath Infinity approach Stillness state, so he maybe therefore feel You This Person Somewhat Strange."

"Eh? Abnormal? Where am I abnormal?"

Araya Souren nodded, speaking as he pulled a Buddhist scripture from his bosom.

"Hmm."

"Her Origin is 'None'. If she awakens it, she'll likely want to turn all things in the world, along with her own existence, into 'None'. It's a very dangerous Origin."

Araya Souren's overall black long trench coat outfit is also very similar to Kirei Kotomine in his all-black priest robe.

"I won't let you die."

After all, the Ryougi Family isn't short on this bit of money.

Root Formula: 6!

Araya Souren was thinking when he heard Rin Tohsaka pursue the question.

"Broly, judging by your look, you should understand. Now, do you know the reason I intended to distance myself from you and Shiki?"

Because the other party's Qi is completely motionless, like a stagnant pool. Closing eyes to perceive it, it's practically no different from a dead object.

Before the girls arrived at Garan no Dou, Broly had already returned from delivering food.

Araya Souren nodded, not minding much. Having lived over two hundred years, he'd seen all sorts of strange people. A child who could perceive life force — placed 150 years ago, he might still have taken interest and gone to observe their actions.

"Compared to you, I'm really too ordinary. Last time I stopped Shiki from going to kill Bai Chun-senpai to avenge Ori, thinking it through afterwards, I knew I'd already lost the qualification to keep pursuing her..."

And when he first laid eyes on Araya Souren, he felt this person was a bit strange.

Broly nodded, able to understand these words. The hesitation in his heart about whether to kill Kanata with one punch was also dispelled by these words.

Asagami Fujino then followed along from crowd psychology, nodding her head along beside them.

"Uh, you didn't notice anything at all?"

Karen complained.

Hearing this, Broly's eyes widened, a look of disbelief, questioning the youth: "Kokutou, you were stealing my wife from me before?"

"No way. Compared to you big sisters with family backing, I've been abandoned by the Aozaki Family and become a broken home. All expenses now depend on me earning them myself!"

"You and Shiki count as lovers. When lovers are alone together, it's definitely more intimate than having an outsider present, and feelings warm up faster too."

"We can't become lovers anymore. Continuing to get close is a bit too difficult for me."

The kimono girl shook her head.

Broly discovered a blind spot.

Illya, little Sakura nodded repeatedly beside them, indicating agreement.

The youth exhaled, then added.

"What is that?"

"And besides the voice, your temperaments are also very similar."

Except one has prayer beads hanging on the neck, the other a cross.

"What do you mean?"

"No, Miss Aozaki, do you have to be this greedy?"

"Hmm, I have a favor, need you to help."

"Master wants me to become a nun?"

"I'm just not being your third wheel, leaving space for you and Shiki to be alone?"

Araya Souren said.

"Is it like that?"

"We have an acquaintance whose voice is very similar to yours, Master Araya."

"Wrong. Then why did you come over before and eat lunch with us as a third wheel?"

Finally, Shiki Ryougi still settled the accounts with Rin Tohsaka. Feelings are feelings, but the consultation money for treatment still has to be repaid by herself.

Broly looked at his own wife, when she was troubled by her friend's attitude change.

"I see."

Araya Souren said, seemingly comforting the girl, yet also seemingly refuting the boy's words.

Rin Tohsaka continued.

"What's up with Black Eyes? Lately this period, he seems to be avoiding us?"

But now, he only cares when he himself can reach the Root. And what's certain now is: Shiki Ryougi, this girl whose physical body links the Root, her soul actively synchronized toward the physical body's direction once, without the outer personality collapsing.

"Shiki..."

Shiki Ryougi consulted.

"So someone set a trap to frame Shiki, causing her spiritual anxiety, making her mistakenly think it was a killing impulse?"

"Refreshing..."

Aozaki Touko frowned. In that case, this old classmate of hers who researches Origin studies, wasn't he invited over here for nothing?

The kimono girl murmured to herself.

"Hmm, I previously had competitive intent."

"Because I discovered, Shiki choosing you was not wrong."

That night, he ran to the Kokutou home, following the Qi to find Kanata.

Like my own Origin is Stillness. Awakening it didn't have too great an influence on my personal spirit.

"Ordinary people lack the talent to awaken Origin. Those with talent are influenced by their Origin."

"I understand."

"Generally speaking, that's how it is. But you're a bit unusual, because you have comparatively more lovers."

"Does your sister actually have the intention to be my wife or not?"

"Hmm, the flower's older brother, his personality is indeed somewhat too serious."

Araya Souren, after prescribing a Buddhist scripture medicine for Ryougi Shiki and saying that other things capable of cultivating body and mind could also serve as treatment, collected his fee and left Garan no Dou.

"But I'm afraid I might do something regrettable before I die; Master, what do you teach me?"

Broly agreed.

"Spiritual anxiety can indeed be mistaken for killing impulse, but if the Origin is an existence of Void, it is also possible to produce killing impulse."

"Then let me ask you: after you killed the person who framed you, what did you feel?"

Broly wanted to say something, but was stopped by the girl's smiling head pat.

Broly answered honestly.

Kanata raised his hand, rubbed his somewhat aching head, and started popularizing: "Broly, I have to popularize some ethics knowledge for you.

The flower is my real younger sister; no matter how much she likes me, it's impossible for her to become my wife. If you like her, just boldly pursue her."

Encouragement from the brother-in-law.
