"Great Divine Inquisitor, I'm so sorry."

"If only I had reported this to Shizomasa earlier." Fox's Assistance lay on her lap, feeling very guilty.

"There's nothing I can do about it, right?

If they found out that this pill didn't have Fu Mourning God and was taken back, I'd probably be fired too, right? "

Lin Ying stroked its soft fur comfortingly. "You're already fine like this."

"It's just that I can't leave the array without a knife … That's a bit difficult …" Lin Ying's brows were tightly knitted together, and her delicate white face looked troubled.

"I'll try leaving the array first … If there's really no other way, I'll report it to Shizomasa."

In the dilapidated courtyard, the hanger full of knives and bells that used to be under the Heavensguard Pavilion was now empty.

The space-time converter that was used to leave the array was covered in dust because it had been empty for more than half a year.

Lin Ying tried to move the controller, but she didn't even have time to adjust the battlefield. She was caught off guard by a burst of white light, and Fox's Assistance's panicked cries could be heard.

"Waah waah …" Fox's Assistance was crying very sadly. After all, it didn't cry even when the previous Divine Inquisitor plucked its fur over and over again.

This time, it was really sad. If the Great Divine Inquisitor didn't come back, then no one would ever make such delicious fried tofu for it again.

No Divine Inquisitor had ever gently plucked its fur, and no one had ever made such delicious fried tofu for it.

I have to find a way to get the Great Divine Inquisitor back!

The night was dark, and the moon was hidden behind the dark clouds, not leaving a single gap.

The area was overgrown with weeds, and it was pitch-black, giving off an ominous aura.

A nimble figure quickly ran past, and with a raise of his hand, a silver light flashed, and easily took the life of the enemy.

"Even the handle of the knife went in!"

A calm and stern voice sounded.

"Brother Kendo …" The pink-haired boy was covered in wounds, and his military uniform was tattered. The hand holding the knife trembled slightly, and he muttered, "We can't go back …"

The bell that was connected to the owner's spiritual energy … had been destroyed …

Originally, because of the problem with the space-time converter, they were left in this space-time. Without the guidance of spiritual energy, they were completely unable to return.

Kendo put his body back into the scabbard and calmly hid his trembling hands. He pretended that nothing had happened and said, "Akita, cheer up!

Even if we can't go back, as weapons, it's an honor to die on the battlefield. "

"But …" Akita sobbed, his pinkish-blue eyes filled with tears. "I still want to see my brother and everyone … I haven't waited for them …"

Kendo sighed and hugged the bloodstained body in his arms, not letting him look up at him. He comforted him, "Even if the general has cut off our spiritual contract, we can still hold on for a while. Maybe if we are lucky, we can meet the other inquisitors."

"We can ask the other Divine Inquisitors to send us back to Honmaru."

"Really?" Akita looked up at him innocently, his voice full of excitement.

"Mm …" Kendo didn't nod, but raised his black gloved hand and touched his head.

"Brother Kendo!

You can put the new bell with you! "

Akita smiled sweetly and took down the broken bell that had just returned to them from the hilt of the sword.

Kendo nodded, and took the bell with his slender fingers, "Then put it with mine."

After a long while, Yao Yan simply cleaned up the wounds on his body. Yao Yan hugged him and leaned against the slightly uncomfortable slope, listening to his orderly breathing.

He sighed and raised his head. His originally magnificent purple eyes looked at the dark sky, and seemed a little gloomy.

Why did he abandon them?

The general …

Even if they weren't rare, even if they had bodies of swords, but now … they already had a heart …

"That was close!"

Lin Ying, who had almost been impaled on a tree branch, wiped the cold sweat on her forehead. She hurriedly made a hand seal, and a transparent spiritual energy shield suddenly rose around her body, protecting her as she slowly descended from the sky.

Only when she landed on the ground did she breathe a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, when she was in the spiritual realm, in order to collect all kinds of precious ingredients, she learned a lot of defensive and offensive spells.

Otherwise, she would have become a meat skewer on a tree branch this time.

Looking at the dark night sky, Lin Ying was a little helpless, and curled her lips, "I don't know which battlefield this is … ah … if only I could find some rare ingredients."

"Let's go back to the space and sleep first …"

She disappeared in place, and didn't know that there were two Fu Mourning Gods not far from her.

The sun gradually rose, and the sound of birds chirping rose one after another.

Kendo opened his eyes the moment the sun shone on his body. His cold and delicate face was incomparably soft under the sunlight, and his purple eyes were even clearer.

"Brother Kendo …" Akita rubbed his eyes in a daze, and his small body climbed up from his body.

"Let's go, Akita. Let's go pick some herbs together. I'll help you treat your wounds. You can't touch them, so you can only endure it." Kendo held him with one hand, and put the other hand on his waist.

"Okay!"

Enduring the pain, Akita nodded obediently, and looked up at the same damaged military uniform and wounds on his body, "Brother Kendo's wounds also need to be treated!"

"Ah!

If only we could find the Divine Inquisitor!

Then we could get our money back! "

Kendo didn't say anything, and only looked at his beaming face and sighed.

For rare swords like those, perhaps the Divine Inquisitor would be willing to bring their money back, but he and Akita could easily obtain them through forging swords. It was likely that they already had one Akita and him in their money.

After all, even the General had easily abandoned them.

At this moment, the grass in the distance shook, and Lin Ying suddenly appeared, chasing a snow-white rabbit with a pile of fallen leaves on her head.

Her white clothes were undamaged, and there wasn't even a single stain.

Only her hair, which was originally tied up, was a little messy.

She subconsciously turned her head when she saw someone looking at her.

Lin Ying: "…" How embarrassing.

Kendo: "… Divine Inquisitor?"

Sensing the fluctuation of spiritual energy, Kendo tightened his grip on Akita's hand, afraid that he would accidentally charge toward the unfamiliar Divine Inquisitor.

Lin Ying's face was blank, and she blurted out, "Don't let it get away!"

Lin Ying's lips twitched, and before she could feel annoyed, the young man in military uniform quickly intercepted the rabbit in front of him.

He respectfully handed the rabbit in his hand to the other. Kendo was a little silent, and he glanced at Akita, whose face was full of longing. He opened his mouth and said, "Divine Inquisitor …"

"Ah!

Thank you! "Lin Ying took the rabbit, and her eyes wandered." Are you the Fu Mourning God of Swords and Knives? "

"Yes, Divine Inquisitor."

Although he felt that it was a little rude, Kendo still asked, "Divine Inquisitor, why have you come to Edo alone?

Where are your Fu Mourning God and personal attendants? "

"No."

After calming down, Lin Ying shook her head honestly. "My Honmaru doesn't have any swords or knives, Fu Mourning God. Um … it should be said that it doesn't have any knives."

"Because it doesn't have a knife forging room." Lin Ying quickly added before the other party could ask.

"I am the new Divine Inquisitor who has fallen into the Honmaru, but that Honmaru no longer has any knives."

Lin Ying's voice was a little gloomy. When she saw the pile of broken swords and knives, her mood was very bad.

Kendo's vigilant expression slowly relaxed. "Then why have you come to this place?"

"Oh, you're talking about this … That's because I accidentally touched the space-time converter …" Fox's Assistance's screams still seemed to be ringing in her ears.

Lin Ying smiled as she pinched the rabbit to prevent it from escaping.

"Divine Inquisitor!

Then let us protect you from now on! "Akita couldn't help but speak up, and he secretly glanced at the silent young Fu Mourning God.

"Hey, Brother Kendo, what do you think?"

"Kendo?

Is it Kendo Shiro?

That Sword of Loyalty? "Lin Ying asked curiously.

Kendo Shiro, because when his master committed suicide, he refused to pierce his master's soft abdomen, and was thrown to a corner in anger by his master. However, he accidentally pierced Kendo, who was grinding medicine.

It was the Sword of Loyalty.

"Yes!

Divine Inquisitor! "The one who answered was an excited Akita.

Lin Ying smiled at them, raised the fat rabbit in her hand, and asked, "Do you want to eat together?"

Kendo Naive Teng Shiro, who thought she was going to raise him: "…"

"Can I?" Faced with Akita's cautious gaze, Lin Ying's smile became even gentler.

Although she didn't know what happened to them, Lin Ying smiled even more happily when she felt their spiritual energy gradually drain away.

That pink ball is super cute!

The masterless Fu Mourning God, I must kidnap them back!

A certain someone who was white on the outside but black on the inside was secretly scheming, and Kendo and the others had their own plans as well.

After finding a place to rest for a while, Lin Ying pretended to take out a tool for swords and knives from her space, and waved at Akita.

"Akita, can you come over here for a while?"

"Yes!" With Kendo's silent consent, Akita obediently walked over to her.

"Let me help you!"

"Eh?

Can I?

Thank you, Divine Inquisitor! "

The process of inserting the short knife was very short, and it was completed in an instant.

"Kendo, you come over too!"

"Thank you, Divine Inquisitor!"

Kendo didn't refuse and handed her the short knife. After feeling the warm spiritual energy in his body, he sincerely thanked her.

After inserting her hand, Lin Ying felt even hungrier.

Under the strong request of the two, she could only pick up firewood nearby.

Kendo carried the rabbit and went to the river with Akita, and said, "Hey, Akita, do you want to follow this Divine Inquisitor?"

"… Yes!"

Although he hesitated for a while, Akita still nodded. "This Divine Inquisitor's spiritual energy is very warm. She's a very gentle person!"

She helped them insert their hands, healed their wounds, and even patted his head. She was really gentle …

Unlike the previous owner, who never allowed them to get close to the short knife, let alone touch his hair.

Although it was very strange that the Divine Inquisitor carried tools and kitchen utensils with her …

Holding the heavy kitchen knife in his hand, Kendo looked expressionlessly at the trembling rabbit.

Gentle …?

"Aido!

Use this knife!

It'll get dirty if you use your original form! "The girl's voice was a little careful, as if she was worried that he would be angry.

"If that's the case, then let's wait and see.

Since there's no spiritual energy contract now, we can just do as we wish. Even if the knife breaks in the future, we won't regret our choice. "

"Eh?

Brother Kendo, what do you mean? "

"Yes, if she's a good general, then pledge your loyalty to her!"

"Ah!

That's great! "

"Hurry up and take care of this. The Divine Inquisitor should be hungry."
