Gensokyo's Dimensional Black Shop

Page 61

……

After flipping through the instruction manual on the coffee table, the young master looked up at Bai Ye, who was slumped over the counter out of boredom: "Is this another world now?"

"Don't doubt the authenticity of the contents of the instruction manual, or do you think you have some treasure that could arouse my greed?" After glancing at the expression on his face, Bai Ye instantly guessed his thoughts with almost perfect accuracy.

The young man, whose thoughts had been guessed, remained silent.

"By the way, my name is Bai Ye. May I ask your name?"

"Sesshomaru."

"Oh?" Sensing the energy within the young man that was somewhat different from that of Yakumo Yukari and Kazami Yuuka, yet definitely within the realm of demonic power, Byakuya nodded... That makes sense. He seemed to have seen this image on some channel's 6:30 PM evening program before he transmigrated. Apparently, at that time, he was being chased and slashed by his younger brother with a frighteningly large knife.

Silently giving himself a thumbs up for the memories amplified several times after becoming an immortal, Byakuya sat up straight, put away his casual expression, and looked seriously at Sesshomaru.

"The nature of our shop is clearly stated in that book. So, what do you need, sir?"

Originally, asking him to sit down instead of simply handing him over to the twin sisters was just to make up for the double attack by Grey Wolf and Tom. However, now that he knows Sesshomaru's identity, Byakuya suddenly feels that it wouldn't be a bad idea to treat him as a guest with whom he could develop a deeper relationship, after all...

Whether it's the Shikon Jewel or the sword left behind by Sesshomaru's father, they're both pretty good, right?

Chapter 146 What a rebellious son!

Instead of introducing the store's merchandise, they directly asked me what I needed... Does that mean they can really meet any request?

Sesshomaru frowned and began to think about what he really needed.

Even he himself didn't realize that just from a description in a book and a few words from Bai Ye, he had already become convinced of the existence of the Dimensional Shop.

Bai Ye raised an eyebrow upon noticing this.

Sesshomaru took much longer to process his needs than Byakuya had anticipated. Considering that a silver-haired nobleman sitting on the sofa with his chin resting on his hand and his brows furrowed was quite a peculiar sight, Byakuya didn't urge him. Instead, he started flirting with Jeanne Alter next to him... I mean, getting to know each other better.

With the voices of Byakuya and Jeanne Alter constantly ringing in his ears, Sesshomaru, a purebred dog demon, savored the still-warm dog food. As he did so, he subtly let out a burp, and at the same time, the image of his mother's sadness, which she inadvertently revealed when she was alone after his father went on his travels, surfaced in his mind...

"Shopkeeper, what price would you have to pay to deal with a powerful demon-level expert?"

"Big monster?"

"Yes, great monster."

“A great demon…” Bai Ye stroked his chin. “That depends on your specific target.”

how to say?

Actually, the classification of Great Yokai in the 633 level is quite vague. The boar spirit that was instantly defeated by Yukari Yakumo at the Hakurei Shrine was a Great Yokai, while Yukari Yakumo and Yuuka Kazami, whose exact limits are still unknown, are also Great Yokai... No matter how you look at it, the former and the latter are not in the same league.

Moreover, this is just the division of the world where Gensokyo is located. Who knows what it's like on Inuyasha's side?

"By the way, who are you going to deal with? There should be quite a few great demons at that level."

"The great monster of the Western Kingdom, King Doya."

"Touya-oh..."

"..."

"Sorry, I might have misheard you. Who did you say?"

"My father is the great demon of the Western Lands, King Toga."

white night:"……"

Could it be that my memory is still playing tricks on me, and that Sesshomaru has always harbored ill intentions towards his father?

Byakuya stared at Sesshomaru with deadpan eyes, already mentally ranting. Sesshomaru, on the other hand, seemed to have lost all fear after saying such provocative words, and simply let out all the little emotions he had been suppressing.

“He already has a mother and so many loyal subordinates who are willing to die for him at any time, yet he still went to find a human woman and didn’t even go home…” Sesshomaru’s face was very gloomy.

The white night remained silent.

Because of this kind of thing, you want to go and deal with your dad yourself? What kind of mentality is this? It's like a brat thinking, "If I can't have it, then nobody else can either."

"...So I hope you can take my father back to the capital of the Western Kingdom. Abandoning his wife and children...hehehe..."

"What do you mean, abandoning one's wife and children?" A head suddenly appeared out of nowhere at the shop entrance. Sesshomaru, who happened to see this scene, was stunned. He subconsciously lashed out with the whip that had appeared in his hand at some point.

"Hey, kid, isn't that going too far? We came here to check on you, and you come up here so aggressively." Yakumo Yukari, who had just emerged from the gap, tapped the tip of her whip and looked at Sesshomaru with displeasure.

"They're hundreds of years old, yet they call you 'little kid' so easily. May I ask... how old are you?" Bai Ye retorted without hesitation, looking at the idler who was deliberately trying to act cute.

To be honest, she was his rival in love... although, strictly speaking, he was the one who came later.

"Seventeen, is there a problem?"

"Tsk tsk..."

"Well..." Seeing that Bai Ye was completely unmoved, Yakumo Yukari shifted her focus, "Little one, how old are you this year?"

Feeling an aura no less imposing than his father's, which firmly bound him, Sesshomaru suddenly realized that the time had come to decide whether to choose his integrity or his life...

"I'll be sixteen after the New Year."

"That's more like it." Having gotten the answer she wanted, Yakumo Yukari gave Bai Ye a defiant look, then looked at the sensible Sesshomaru with satisfaction. "Come on, call me 'Yukari-neechan' and let me hear it. If I'm satisfied, maybe I'll just grab your heartless old man and bring him back to you~"

"..."

Sesshomaru didn't respond. This time, he didn't sense the aura of Yakumo Yukari locking onto him. In other words, even if she didn't call out, he wouldn't be in any danger... he shouldn't be in any danger.

"Yukari Yakumo, you should know that her father doesn't live in this world..."

“That’s where you’re wrong. Even though we’re not in the same world, as youkai, we can’t just stand by and watch something happen between a mere human and a great youkai. After all, we’re different races. Even if we did get together, how could it last…” Yakumo Yukari looked at Byakuya with a smile. “You agree, right, little shopkeeper?”

white night:"……"

I have a feeling that what you're talking about isn't about Touya-oh. Is that just my imagination?

"Well, little guy, have you thought it through?" Seeing that Bai Ye didn't speak, Yakumo Yukari glanced at his lower body with disdain, then turned to Sesshomaru, "Don't blame me for not reminding you, although the little shopkeeper is very efficient in handling things, his fees are also very high. Helping to deal with a powerful demon-level expert, I estimate that even selling you the whole time wouldn't be enough."

Sesshomaru looked at Byakuya.

"Uh...it's a powerful demon after all, so charging a higher price shouldn't be a problem, right?"

So if this unknown great monster hadn't appeared just now, were you really planning to sell me out?

Sesshomaru's imposing aura subsided, realizing that neither Byakuya nor Yakumo Yukari were people he could afford to offend at the moment. Therefore, he didn't outwardly show any displeasure, only inwardly muttering a complaint before looking at Yakumo Yukari with a blank expression…

"Sister Zi".

"Hmm... such a bland tone." Yukari Yakumo tapped her palm with her folding fan. "But what can I do when I'm in a good mood? I'll let you off this time. Manager Shiro...?"

"Letting you pass is no problem, but there are two things I need to emphasize to you first..."

"Firstly, because the laws of different worlds are not as complete, you might find yourself unable to defeat Cirno when you get there, or you might be able to destroy the world with a sneeze."

"Secondly, I don't know what your purpose is, but in any case, don't go too far... At least for now, I don't want Gensokyo to lose you, the youkai sage."

"Relax, don't you trust us to do things?" Yakumo Yukari squinted at Byakuya, seemingly lost in thought.

white night:"……"

To be honest, I'm really worried.

Chapter 147: A Dual-Thread Approach, Sardinia's Defiance

Half an hour after Sesshomaru paid the price of his integrity to obtain Yakumo Yukari's promise, three figures silently appeared at the training ground chosen by the Western General for his son.

After closing her eyes and experiencing the differences between the two worlds, Yukari Yakumo opened them again, her eyes filled with excitement.

It really is another world!

Moreover, it's not like the Demon World of Shinki, which is just a so-called otherworld attached to the original world. It's a true otherworld that has broken free from the limitations of the original world and has laws that are completely different from Gensokyo!

As expected, tacitly allowing the shopkeeper to stay was the right choice. If Yuyuko's accident hadn't happened, it would have been even better... Tsk, I'm still really annoyed!

Next, as long as she brings this kid's father back as agreed, she can begin her own plan.

Apart from……

"Why did you come with us?" Looking at Jeanne Alter, who had changed into a black armor and was carrying the banner of the Dragon Witch, Yukari Yakumo scoffed unhappily.

Originally, he had planned to take this opportunity to "test" Yuyuko, but just as they were about to set off, a seemingly eccentric blond youth ran out of the portal and a few words from him completely dispelled Byakuya's idea of ​​coming along.

If this little girl hadn't volunteered, she probably would have been the only one to come with Sesshomaru in the end.

"Miss Zi, don't worry. I'm just following Master's instructions to search for something in this world. It won't interfere with your actions... Of course, that is, you shouldn't interfere with my affairs either."

"There are only so many good things in the world. Who knows if there will be any conflicts?" Yukari Yakumo opened her folding fan and covered the lower half of her face.

"..."

"Actually, I'd rather we had a conflict..."

Then I can openly burn you to death. Gensokyo is only so big. Killing one of you means one less potential rival. (Grim face)

After Jeanne Alter carried the flag away from the valley entrance, Sesshomaru, still somewhat confused by the confrontation between the two women, weakly looked at Yukari Yakumo, who had not yet left, and asked, "Weren't you two together?"

"Together? You little brat, are you kidding me!" Yakumo Yukari scoffed. "If it weren't for Manager Shiro intervening, we reckon that girl would already be fighting with us or someone else in Gensokyo by now. I really don't know how he managed to handle that girl with his personality."

"..." So, by releasing two powerful demons into this world, and these demons had no worries about the future and disliked each other, did I unknowingly do something extraordinary?

"Let's go, what are you standing there for? Let's go and bring your father, who's cheating on you, back to us..." Looking up at the sky, Yukari Yakumo casually opened a gap and called to Sesshomaru, who was still standing there motionless, "Time is of the essence. In order not to affect our own plans, it's best to get him done before dark."

……

Let's rewind the timeline to half an hour ago.

Just as Byakuya and Yukari Yakumo were discussing what to do after arriving in Sesshomaru's world, the light on the portal lit up, and Tony, still carrying that rusty sword, excitedly came to Byakuya.

"My dearest friend, it's been so long! I wonder if your sword is still sharp?"

"...Did you forget to take your medicine, or did you take too much?"

"Haha, my dear friend, you're quite the joker. I've come to see you with something very important this time." Tony laughed off Bai Ye's teasing and looked at Bai Ye excitedly: "Last time in You Shi, I heard the old man mention that in R Country, you and he successfully summoned two Disobedient Ones and then had a contest to see who could kill them first?"

"Strictly speaking, I only summoned one; the other was released from the seal. Why are you asking this?"

“These details are not important; what’s important is that this happened.” Tony waved his hand. “I just received a message from the Copper Black Cross people saying that there are signs of suspected spies in Sardinia, Italy.”

"If he doesn't comply, why don't you just chop him up? Why are you coming to me?"

"The key is that the intelligence they gave me indicated that the last commotion didn't seem to be caused by a single rebel, but rather by two rebels fighting there. You missed the last time you went to the Netherworld, how about this time? Are you tempted?"

"..."

After careful consideration, Byakuya felt that Sesshomaru's abilities were more appealing to him, since one or two powers wouldn't bring much improvement to his current situation.

……

Seeing Bai Ye's calm expression, Tony's lips curled up: "I almost forgot to mention, the last time, at the place where the two powerful beings were fighting, they sensed an extremely hot and violent energy. Although they only saw the pictures they sent remotely, I have a feeling... only authority related to the sun can leave such a mark."

"Oh, the sun..."

"Judging from your tone, your father and that human woman's relationship has been going on for quite some time. So how about we wait a few more days? If nothing unexpected happens, I'll be able to go over and beat your father up in about half a month." Nodding to Tony, Byakuya turned to look at Sesshomaru.

Sesshomaru's gaze towards Byakuya and Tony suddenly became painful... If I don't agree, are you just going to leave this matter to me?

In the end, it was Jeanne Alter who took the initiative to suggest that she and Yukari Yakumo go to Sesshomaru's world, while Byakuya and Tony would go to Sardinia to see if they could seize another power related to the sun. Byakuya had already told Jeanne Alter about the situation in the world of Godslayer, so she could understand why Byakuya chose Tony over Sesshomaru.

Why does that sound so gay?

Chapter 148 Journey to Sardinia, Erica's Fright

A person can only have one coordinate in a world—this was one of the points that Bai Ye was told to pay attention to by the dimensional shop's auxiliary program when he first traveled between worlds.

Of course, while that's true, there's no rule that says you can't use the coordinates of other people in the same world to achieve the purpose of forced teleportation. For example, the coordinates of Azeroth are set in the White Night of Karazhan, and I once visited the Burning Legion by using the coordinates of Mannoroth.

If I remember correctly, his coordinates in the Godslayer world are in the backyard of the headquarters of the Copper Black Cross.

Emmmmmm……

After rejecting Tony's offer to go with him, and warning the twins who stayed behind with words like "If you make a mistake, I'll dehydrate you both to death. Don't doubt my ability to do such a thing," Bai Ye walked into the portal alone.

The next second, he appeared in an Italian-style garden.

Not far away, the blonde girl who had been labeled "unbearable to look at" and "unpleasant to behold" by Bai Ye and Tony respectively was wielding a rapier, demonstrating an extremely light and graceful sword technique.

"Although you haven't spent much time on swordsmanship, from what I can tell, your swordsmanship doesn't seem to have improved much compared to what I saw last time..." Bai Ye said quietly after watching for a while.

"Who?!"

Startled by the sudden sound, the girl's longsword suddenly emitted a dazzling light, and then with a powerful swing, it slashed towards Bai Ye.
