Fu Shen Parenting Manual
Chapter 3
At 8: 20 the next morning, the Fu Mourning God from This Pill SE64 gathered in the middle of the courtyard.
Sanchū Sōjin stood at the front. His eyes were half closed. It was unclear whether he was thinking or dozing off.
Tsurumaru Kuninaga was beside him. He was playing with the tassel on his chest. He was so bored that he wanted to play with the tassel.
Shortsword, who was standing behind them, looked uneasy. Bodo and Chaos looked at the time and space machine with anticipation and anxiety. The Five Tigers Retreat hid behind Ichidate and Ichidate. They stuck their heads out and stared at the machine. Pharmaceutical Research was relatively calm. He only glanced at Ichidate and Ichidate, who were smiling warmly beside him. He looked calm.
Daikurikara and Tarō Tarō stood in the corner. Even though they were both tall and big, they managed to hide their presence by hiding their presence.
Gokusen Kanazane crossed his arms and stood with Candlestick Tachibana in the back. Akashi Kuniyuki, who looked tired, leaned against a pillar in the hallway and rubbed his eyes.
Everyone was there.
A Motonaru that had existed for two years only had twelve vibrations of the sword. It had to be said that this was a very strange thing.
But the swords did not seem to notice this. They gathered together and did not talk. They just stood there quietly, waiting for their new master to arrive.
The clock on the wall moved slowly and steadily. The minute hand finally reached the number nine.
The exposed gears of the time machine suddenly started to spin. The gears were connected to a chain, making a rhythmic metallic sound. It glowed as if it was breathing. When the light faded, two figures appeared in front of the Fu Mourning God, one big and one small.
One was a worker from the Government of the Hour. Behind him, there was a child who looked like he was only four or five years old. He was wearing the wizard costume that only the inquisitors would wear. He was holding Fox's Assistance in his arms. As if he was afraid of strangers, the child lifted Fox's Assistance up high. He buried his head in the long fur on Fox's Assistance's back. His face and expression could not be seen. The only thing that was exposed was the messy, black hair at the back of his head. It was so long that it almost touched the ground.
Everyone could not help but look at the child.
Tsuru Maru: Suddenly excited.
Except for Sanchū and Tsuru Maru, the Fu Mourning God instinctively felt that something was wrong.
The worker from the Government of the Hour introduced himself. "I'm Zuoneng. Today, I'm here with the new inquisitor to handle the handover procedures for This Pill SE64. Have you read the information about the inquisitor in advance?"
"Of course. Thank you for sending our inquisitor here." Sanchū's eyes fell on the child. His tone was meaningful. "This is our new inquisitor, Ryūsei?"
"That's him, your new inquisitor."
As soon as he said this, the Fu Mourning God's faces changed dramatically. The most obvious one was Yizhen. He frowned and could not help but take a step forward. "He … looks like he's only four or five years old?"
"Six years old. Although this kid is young, his spiritual power is strong and his personality is difficult to deal with." Zuoneng curled his lips. "You're lucky. This kid's spiritual power is not inferior to that of the senior inquisitors. In fact, he's even stronger. Haha!" The last laugh did not sound like a congratulatory one, but more like a schadenfreude.
The child next to him heard the laughter and shrank back. He immediately tightened his arms around Fox's Assistance.
"Let's not talk about him anymore. Let's start the handover." Zuoneng took out a document.
Yizhen and Sanchū stood in the front row. They could clearly see the title of the document. It was an Inquisitor Recruitment Application.
They could not help but look at each other, but they did not say anything.
Sanchū took out a stamp with the serial number of This Pill and stamped it at the bottom of the application document. Zuoneng roughly grabbed Ryūsei's arm. "Cooperate!
It's going to be over soon. Give me a knife. Help me. "
Ryūsei was shocked. He shook his head and wanted to step back, but Zuoneng pulled him harder. His whole body was almost lifted off the ground.
Ryūsei bit his lower lip in pain. His long hair covered face was full of fear. "Are you going to hit me again?
I … Did I do something wrong again? "
Ryūsei held his breath and closed his eyes. The slap did not fall on his body.
"I think you should be more patient with children."
Yizhen grabbed Zuoneng's arm. His movements were still gentle, but he firmly pressed down until the child's feet were firmly on the ground. "At least you can't be so rough."
Zuoneng looked at Yizhen in surprise. Only then did he remember that Yizhen Tachi was instinctively kind to children. He simply let go of his hand. "I didn't mean to. It's just that this kid can't even write his own name, and he doesn't want to listen to others. So … Forget it. Can you give me a knife? Let him bleed a little and put a fingerprint on him."
"No need." Fox's Assistance, who had been held in Zuoneng's arms like a doll, suddenly spoke up. "I'll do it."
Fox's Assistance rubbed Ryūsei's cheek and whispered a few words in his ear. Ryūsei obediently reached out his hand and let Fox's Assistance scratch his fingertips. Then, with trembling hands, Zuoneng pressed his fingerprint on the document.
The blood-red fingerprint pressed on the document. The scene was quite similar to the scene of a prisoner being stamped.
But the moment Ryūsei pressed his fingerprint, the Fu Mourning God's spirits were lifted.
The spiritual power that was about to dry up in their bodies suddenly surged. It was not like the spiritual power of the previous God's Inquisitor, which flowed slowly like a stream and immersed itself silently.
On the contrary, Ryūsei's spiritual power was more like a turbulent river, fierce and surging. It broke through the dam without their consent and washed away all the spiritual power that belonged to the previous God's Inquisitor.
Even This Pill seemed to have been released from its cage. A steady stream of spiritual power gushed out from the God's Inquisitor's small body. It was so dense that it was like a pouring rain, sparing no effort to nourish the land, trying to imprint Ryūsei's mark on every corner. Even the huge cherry tree on the distant hillside suddenly sprouted new leaves. The green leaves instantly turned into flower buds, and when the wind blew, the petals flew all over the sky.
"…" This, this spiritual power … seems to be unbelievably huge …
The Fu Mourning God turned their heads to look at the frail child.
Half of his small face was covered by his long black hair, so they could not see his expression.
Only his small chin was exposed, and it seemed to be more … healthy than before.
Hmm?
Why does his complexion seem to have improved?
But the Fu Mourning God only caught a glimpse of it. The child quickly buried his face into Fox's Assistance's back and did not make a sound. He did not seem to be unwell.
The Zuoneng put away the signed document. "See, this kid's only strength is his spiritual power … I'm done here. I'm going back. Fox's Assistance, I'll leave this place to you."
After he finished speaking, he did not wait for Fox's Assistance's reply. He pressed the portable space-time transfer device and left in a hurry.
But the Fu Mourning God did not have time to spare a glance at the Zuoneng. They all stared at Ryūsei with complicated expressions.
Except for Sanchū and Tsuru Maru, the other swords felt as if a gust of wind had passed through their hearts.
Although they had received the notice of a new God's Inquisitor yesterday … they did not know that the God's Inquisitor was a child!
Moreover, he seemed to be a little autistic child!
How should they greet him without scaring him?
While the other swords were still in a daze, Tsuru Maru took the lead. He walked in front of Ryūsei and squatted down. He did not care that his overlong white robe was dragging dust on the ground. "Hey, little master!
I'm Tsurumaru Kuninaga. You can call me Tsuru Maru. You look even smaller than in the picture. You scared me!
But you're still very cute. Can I hug you? "
"…" Ryūsei trembled and took a step back.
Tsuru Maru happily took a step forward. "Why should I hide?
I'm not bragging. I've served many masters, and all of them loved me. My popularity must have scared … Eh?
Why did I take a step back again … "
"Tsuru Maru." Sanchū held Tsuru Maru back. "Let the master rest in his room."
After that, he looked at Fox's Assistance. "Can I trouble you?"
"Leave it to me!" Fox's Assistance was relieved.
After all, he was well aware of the new inquisitor's personality. It was absolutely impossible for him to talk to strangers in an unfamiliar environment surrounded by strangers. It was better to leave him alone … Perhaps after ten days or half a month, when he had familiarized himself with the surroundings, he would be willing to talk to others?
Fox's Assistance suddenly had a bad feeling.
Before the God's Inquisitor got used to this place, he could not be more than three meters away from the God's Inquisitor.
"Master, let's go?
Fox's Assistance will take you to your room. Can you put me down … Eh?
Just like that? "
