Chapter 198 The Messenger of Wind, Kagura Arrives at the Door!
Sensing the subtle pressure around them, the petite girl in a plain white kimono with two white flowers in her hair stared expressionlessly at Shinji Kaminaga and Kikyo.
She was the first clone that Naraku created after obtaining a large number of Shikon Jewel shards.
His heart is controlled by Naraku, and he can only obey Naraku's orders.
"Little one, you're a mirror spirit, right?" Kikyo smiled and reached out to touch her white hair.
She had a strange feeling when someone touched her hair.
The little girl looked at the priestess, Naraku's lifelong enemy, who showed no hostility, and couldn't help but nod slightly.
"Yes."
"Naraku—let me monitor the greatest enemy."
Upon hearing that it was Naraku who sent her, Kikyo smiled even more brightly.
Now that things have come to this, she no longer takes Naraku seriously.
If Naraku weren't so special, being a puppet of the Shikon Jewel, she would have killed him long ago.
She felt no disgust towards the girl in front of her who had no trace of demonic or evil aura.
Just think about it.
Naraku himself was a hodgepodge of demons, so it wasn't difficult for him to use the power of the Shikon Jewel to create clones from the souls of several demons.
Moreover, such a pure and beautiful yokai, emerging from the mud unsullied, is very suitable to be a shikigami.
Shinji Kaminaga took the opportunity to pat the little girl's hair and chuckled, "Since Naraku sent you, what's your name?"
The little girl felt an even stronger strange sensation as someone patted her head again.
Knowing she couldn't escape and that the mirror in her hand couldn't absorb the souls of the two people in front of her, she simply revealed her name.
"Godless."
Naraku was so afraid of Kikyo and Shinji Kaminaga's power that he didn't dare to appear in front of them.
We had no choice but to send her over as a tool to test the waters.
"Kanna? What a fitting name for you. Nice to meet you. Since you're so adorable, here's a gift for you."
Shinji Kaminaga smiled, raised his hand, and condensed a beam of light energy, which he then poured into the mirror in her hand.
"I know that your heart is in Naraku's hands. As long as Naraku takes your heart out in front of you and points the mirror at him, your heart can return to your body."
Upon hearing this, Shenwu's previously unmoved eyes flickered.
Looking at the smiling man, Kanna couldn't help but ask in confusion, "I am Naraku's clone."
"Those who come to monitor you—if given the chance, they will even use the mirror to steal your souls—though they cannot do it, Kanna is the enemy."
"So, why are you helping me?"
Shinji Kaminaga smiled and then reached out to pat her little head.
"Kanna is just a pitiful person whose heart has been controlled by Naraku. I don't consider you an enemy, so I hope that one day you can gain your freedom and do what you want to do."
"Alright, it's getting late, we need to head back. Do you want to come with us?"
Faced with the invitation, Shen Wu was somewhat tempted.
But the thought that Naraku controlled her heart made her shake her head.
"Alright, let's head back then. See you next time, Kanna."
After saying that, Shinji Kaminaga slowly left with Kikyo in his arms.
As Shen Wu watched the two figures disappear into the distance, a ripple involuntarily rose in her originally calm heart.
Although she is a special mirror spirit, theoretically she is emotionless and has no thoughts of her own; she is merely a tool created by Naraku.
But this is only in theory.
Everything that is born with its own soul possesses its own will.
Freedom, even a god, is something they desire.
In particular, besides herself, she also has a younger sister named Kagura who yearns for freedom even more.
After Shinji Kaminari and Kikyo disappeared from sight, Kanna returned to Naraku's secret base.
Upon seeing Kanna return, Naraku's gloomy face revealed a cold expression.
"Kanna, why are you back? Didn't I tell you to monitor the situation in Kaede Village, and to keep an eye on Kikyo and that man's actions?"
Faced with Naraku's questioning, the god replied calmly without any tone.
"We've been discovered."
"What? Someone as special as you can be discovered?" Naraku's eyes widened in surprise, and he couldn't help but feel a little glad that he hadn't taken action himself.
Even a "non-attribute" youkai like Kanna can be discovered. If I were to appear in front of Kikyo or Shinji Kaminaga, I would be instantly destroyed, just like the body of Harukain Seisakusou that I obtained last time!
As a result, Naraku became even more terrified of Kikyo and Shinji Kaminaga's strength.
but----
"Since you were discovered, why did you return unharmed?"
Naraku narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing Kanna.
It's laughable.
As the creator of the Godless, he didn't even trust his own clone.
Instead, they want to control the other party's heart to coerce them into doing things for them.
Faced with Naraku's questioning, Kami replied in a faint, ethereal voice, "I don't know. Those two didn't attack me—they even said I was cute."
Upon hearing this, Naraku's expression instantly crumbled.
"cute?"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Suddenly, Naraku burst into laughter.
"I should have realized this sooner; what man isn't lustful?"
"Just like that famous high priest Mi Fan before, wasn't he also seduce by me using his beauty, thus contracting the Wind Cave curse?"
"Shinji Kaminaga is nothing more than a lecherous man."
"Since they haven't attacked you, Kanna, you will continue to monitor their movements and report any information about them to me."
"Don't even think about hiding it, or else—don't forget that your heart is still in my hands."
""
Faced with the blatant threat, Shen nodded expressionlessly.
"Alright, you can go now."
Naraku waved his hand, rubbing his forehead as he pondered a strategy against Shinji Kaminaga.
Since he's lustful, that makes things easier.
Kanna silently left Naraku's residence.
A moment later, the gorgeous kimono-clad beauty, who had captured a large number of miscellaneous monsters, sat on a feather and slowly landed beside Kanna.
She had a head of beautiful, jet-black hair, which she casually tied back in a ponytail.
Bright, large eyes, shining like red rubies.
Pointed ears, a delicate nose, and a cherry-like mouth combine to form a refined face.
The gorgeous yet elegant kimono accentuated her curvaceous figure, and her lovely feet were subtly exposed to the air.
Like Kanna, she did not have the habit of wearing shoes.
This beautiful, elfin-like girl is none other than Kagura, Naraku's second incarnation and Kanna's younger sister.
"Hey, Kanna, what did Naraku ask you to do? Why are you only coming back now?"
Kagura casually asked the question, looking at Kanna's expressionless face, trying to glean something from it.
She is the messenger of the wind, a Kagura who yearns for freedom, and therefore is very dissatisfied with the fact that her heart is controlled.
The free-spirited messenger of the wind is not truly free; she possesses a rebellious heart!
Therefore, as Kanna's younger sister, she also longed for her older sister Kanna to find an opportunity to break free from Naraku's control, just like she did.
However, Shen Wu remained expressionless, and she couldn't discern anything from him.
When asked by her younger sister, Shinmu did not hide anything.
"Naraku—send me to keep an eye on Shinji Kaminaga and Kikyo."
"Shinji Kaminaga and Kikyo? Those two who terrified Naraku? Why are they back? Did they get discovered?"
As Kagura spoke, she nervously looked Kanna up and down.
Seeing that she was not injured, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Shen Wu nodded slightly.
"We've been discovered."
"But—those two people didn't attack me; instead—they said I was cute."
"Huh? Cute?"
Kagura opened her mouth wide, looking completely bewildered.
"Yes—yes, they are quite cute, but—don't those two know who you are?"
Kanna: "I know."
"Huh? Are you serious? You knew you were Naraku's clone and didn't attack you?"
Kagura was utterly shocked.
But soon, she became excited.
Since Naraku is so afraid of those two people, and has no hostility towards Kanna, could he cooperate with Shinji Kaminaga and Kikyo?
She has longed for freedom and wanted to take her heart back from Naraku for quite some time.
Seeing the burning desire in Kagura's eyes, Kanna couldn't help but offer a reminder.
"Kagura—don't forget, your heart is still in Naraku's hands."
Therefore, be careful not to give yourself away as rebellious.
After all, Naraku is a very ruthless guy.
"I know, and that's precisely why I find it even more unacceptable!"
"I am Kagura, the messenger of the wind; I should be free!"
"Right now, my life and death are in the hands of treacherous guys, and I have to hunt down disgusting little monsters every day. I hate this kind of life!"
People always have to give it their all.
Kagura's yearning for freedom was stronger than anyone else's.
Thinking about the possibility of collaborating with Shinji Kaminaga, Kagura immediately chased after her older sister, Kanna, asking her about the details of Kanna's interactions with the two men.
When Kagura heard that Kanna had been gently patted on the head by the two people like a child, she was invigorated and became even more tempted.
Meanwhile, inside the castle, Naraku, who was using the Shikon Jewel to absorb and transform the demonic power of the miscellaneous demons brought by Kagura, took out Kagura's heart. Feeling the frequency of its beating, he couldn't help but reveal a cold smile.
"Kagura, you want to betray me? Heh, let's see if you can seduce that man."
Having control over the other's heart, he could naturally sense Kagura's rebelliousness.
It's still better to use Shenwu; Shenwu's heart doesn't fluctuate at all.
We arrived at Shinji Kaminaga's side.
Kikyo, recalling how petite and adorable Kanna had appeared earlier, couldn't help but ask, "Lord Kaminaga, what do you think of the idea of taking Kanna as a shikigami?"
"Sure! I had the same idea. We're on the same page. The mirror spirit, pure as a blank sheet of paper, is like a lotus rising from the mud. With her help, exorcising demons will be much easier in the future."
Of course, he was referring to assisting Kikyo and the others in their exorcism.
His words didn't need to be so complicated; a single flash of the timer would be enough to wipe out all evil.
"However, Kanna's heart is in Naraku's hands. If we want to subdue her, we must find a way to take back her heart."
"Yes, so Lord Kaminaga deliberately sent her a beam of light just now. How cunning of him."
Shinji Kaminaga, seeing Kikyo's playful demeanor, couldn't help but squeeze her small hand, saying with some dissatisfaction, "Still calling me Kaminaga-sama? Was I not trying hard enough just now? Kikyo is still a bit unfamiliar with me."
"No, that's not it—I'm just—I'm used to calling you that."
Kikyo blushed and quickly shook her head.
Thinking about what had just happened, she couldn't help but feel ashamed.
He's so skilled!
"I don't care, Kikyo is already my woman, so let's change how we address her."
"Hmm—then, from now on I'll call you Kaminaga-kun?"
"Yes, we should have called you that a long time ago!"
Return to the shrine.
Looking at the radiant Kikyo, Yukino Yukinoshita instantly realized that someone had already won Kikyo over.
She gave Shinji Kaminaga a resentful look, her lips slightly pouting, with an expression of jealousy.
Kikyo smiled and nodded to Yukino Yukinoshita, exchanging a knowing glance.
"Yukino, what's wrong with you? You look like you could hang an oil bottle from your mouth."
Shinji Kaminaga chuckled and moved closer to Yukino, looking at her cute pouting lips, and couldn't help but tease her.
"Hmph, you pervert, you know it in your heart!"
Yukino Yukinoshita pinched his arm to express her displeasure.
Miss Yukinoshita got jealous, and Shinji Kaminaga had no choice but to use all his charm and finally persuaded her with words.
It was evening.
Shinji Kaminaga left the shrine and went to relieve himself in the nearby water.
Suddenly a gust of wind swept in from the sky.
Under the moonlight, a beautiful woman in a kimono, wearing feathers and with bare, exquisite feet, slowly descended from the sky and stopped two meters away from him.
Kagura's gaze fell on someone's water pipe, and her mouth dropped open, her face instantly turning red.
"You bastard, what—what have you shown me?"
Shinji Kaminaga stared speechlessly at the beautiful woman in the kimono.
"Who peeked?"
Kagura couldn't hold back anymore; this was slander!
She saw Shinji Kaminari go out through her sister Kanna's mirror, and that's when she found an opportunity to come over and discuss the collaboration.
Who would have thought that this guy would take it out and start relieving himself without saying a word?
"Who else could be here besides me?"
Shinji Kaminaga gave her a disdainful look, shook himself, and pulled up his pants.
Kagura felt awkward and wanted to turn around and leave, but when she thought of the man's kindness towards her sister Kanna and Naraku's fear of him, she gave up the idea of leaving.
"Are you done?"
She asked a dry, uninformed question.
But the image of him trembling kept flashing through my mind, and the more I thought about it, the more embarrassed I felt.
Shinji Kaminaga nodded with amusement. "Didn't you see? It's all over."
"So, beautiful lady, what brings you here so late at night instead of sleeping?"
Faced with his question, Kagura, with a hint of wariness, dismounted from the feather.
A peculiar breeze gathered on her slender, fair feet, keeping them clean while also preparing them for a possible escape at any moment.
"My name is Kagura, and like Kanna, I am an incarnation of Naraku."
She spoke first, her eyes fixed on his movements, ready to flee at any moment if he were to attack her!
