Rebirth of Japan's Sekiro Legacy

Chapter 60 The Origin of the Exorcist Family

The clerk brought the coffee quickly.

Kasai Shinichi picked up the cup and took a sip, then asked, "So, what does Arakawa-senpai want to know about the student union?"

Nozomi Arakawa was about to speak when a voice suddenly sounded in his ear.

"Arakawa-san, it's a coincidence that we met in such a place."

The bright bald head reflected the lights of the cafe, and Asano and Ya naturally sat down beside Arakawa Wang.

"It's Asano-senpai!" Kasai Shinichi said in surprise.

Even among the first graders, Asano's reputation is quite large, and she can win the favor of girls purely by her face. It is not difficult to imagine how handsome this face is.

"Hello, I remember your name is Kasai, I met you at the opening ceremony." Asano smiled kindly.

"Yes, yes." Kasai Shinichi was flattered.

"Why did you come here?" Nozomi Arakawa was a little surprised.

Through conversations with classmates during class, he learned that Asano Kazumi had not joined any clubs. In his own words, he wanted to go back to the temple to chant sutras and meditate.

But now this guy who was supposed to knock the wooden fish in the temple came to the coffee shop.

"This is my favorite coffee shop. Sometimes I come here to have a cup of coffee and read scriptures silently." Asano smiled slightly.

"Read scriptures in the coffee shop?"

Nozomi Arakawa added in his heart, I'm afraid you have something wrong with your brain.

"Um... is there any need to recite sutras in a coffee shop?" Kasai Shinichi asked curiously.

"It's just a simple extension." Asano put his hands together.

"Ah, I see. Senior Asano is saving the stray cat that was hit and killed by a car in front of the coffee shop yesterday afternoon." Kasai Shinichi suddenly realized, "Senior is really kind."

Asano smiled, noncommittal.

The ringtone of Dinglingling's cell phone suddenly rang. Shinichi Kasai glanced at the caller ID and stood up apologetically.

"Sorry, two seniors, I'm going to the toilet to answer the phone."

"It's okay, you go." Arakawa Wang said.

Kasai Shinichi left his seat, and Arakawa looked at Asano.

"You didn't follow here on purpose, did you?"

"No, monks don't lie, I just came here to chant scriptures and have a cup of coffee."

"Upon saving a stray cat?"

"Not only for the cat's soul..." Asano shifted his gaze to a female clerk, "You should have noticed the crying."

Nozomi Arakawa's expression changed, and he became serious.

Indeed, from the moment he first came in, he heard the faint crying of the baby, but at that time he thought it was some staff member who was taking the baby behind, but later he realized that something was wrong.

How can the guests and staff look completely indifferent if the baby is crying all the time?No matter how bad it is, someone should frown to express dissatisfaction.

"That's her child, who was washed into the sewer." Asano and Mi clasped their hands together, "Amitabha."

"If that's the case, the clerk is guilty of homicide."

"No...that child should have been nourished in the mother's womb, and her mother must have suffered violence to cause a miscarriage." Asano said.

Arakawa stared blankly, then looked at the clerk who was cleaning the glasses.

She is not very old, she should be in her early twenties, and she does not look very good. Even though she uses a thick foundation to cover her makeup, the decadence in her eyes cannot be hidden. The figure under the black and white uniform is not Gaining weight proves that the baby has only been conceived for less than three months.

"Domestic violence..." Nozomi Arakawa guessed.

"It doesn't have to be domestic violence, but it's not something we can interfere with. All I can do is to make that life who has never seen the world become a Buddha as soon as possible."

Although he understood what Asano meant, Nozomi Arakawa couldn't help teasing, "Won't God save her?"

"If you want to cross the Buddha, you have to do it yourself first." Asano replied seriously, "Unless she asks the people around her for help, no one can help her."

"Just talking casually, don't be so serious." Nozomi Arakawa tapped his fingers on the table, "Let me guess, the exorcist?"

"The Asano family and the Arakawa family used to have contacts." Asano Kazuya nodded with a smile.

"How many of you are there?" Nozomi Arakawa asked curiously.

"Let me start from the beginning. It seems that you don't know much about these things. In Japan's Heian period, it was a dark era where humans and monsters coexisted." Asano and Ya said, "At that time There are not many entertainment activities, so when people have worked for a day and rest in the dark, when the lights are on, monsters appear one after another, food streets, hot spring towns, nights where monsters haunt, live a nightlife like human beings, and it is very lively. The demons appeared at that time, because not all monsters are willing to live in peace with humans. In their eyes, humans are like livestock like cattle and sheep, and exist as food. The battle with the monsters was very difficult at the beginning , an organization called 'Ghost Killing Squad' fought demons with sun-soaked knives. They called themselves exorcists. Later, with the introduction of Western culture, exorcists mastered the power called 'magic power'. They began to use the magic base of the earth to launch this special technique to repel demons, and the exorcist family was also born at that time. Because they not only learned how magic works, but also have a special ability For example, the Asano family, we have the most powerful breathing method, and we are born with it, which has become an instinct engraved in our genes; another example is the Qianyue family, the magic circuit in each of their descendants, whether it is quality or The numbers are astonishingly high, which laid the foundation for the founding of the Exorcist family."

Nozomi Arakawa drank the cool coffee silently, without saying a word.

He seemed to be able to see that cruel age. In order to survive, people brandished swords to fight against powerful monsters, and sacrificed a lot of people in exchange for victory, just like the prehistoric times.

"The exorcist family once reached its peak. At that time, when the demons heard the name of the exorcist family, they were frightened and ran away in a panic. But with the beginning of the world war and the development of society, buildings stood tall, and the demons in the world ran to more places. Gathering in remote places, the exorcist family also began to decline, and many collateral families have left the main family to integrate into the society to seek their own development and wealth, until today." Asano scratched his hairy head, "Our temple was still very famous in the past, But now almost no one comes."

"So, there are not many exorcists now?" Arakawa looked out the window and watched the sun sinking a little bit.

"No." Asano shook his head, "Although the exorcist family has declined, there are still monsters in the world, such as blood-sucking species. Therefore, exorcists from all walks of life have established exorcist associations to maintain the safety of the world, regardless of whether it is natural monsters that cause harm. Still artificial."

"Artificial?"

"That's right. Over the years, there are not many demons harming the human world. Now some magicians...or magicians will use magic for their own desires. Of course, as long as the harm is not too great, the exorcist will generally not intervene."

"For example? To what extent will the exorcist not interfere?"

"For example, using magic to charm a little girl in a bar or something... We don't have much control over this."
