Mo Yi: Just Call Me Big Brother Yasuo!

Mo Yi: "..."

The other person looked like a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl, so it wasn't wrong for her to call him "big brother." But the thought that she might be the legendary "Yukari Yakumo" made him feel like he was being taken advantage of.

Moreover, the name 'Xiao Hong' is so simple, it does have a very rural style of Gensokyo. But Mo Yi even wanted to laugh and said, 'So you are Yakumo Reimu?'

Why choose "red" as a pseudonym? It's definitely in Yukari Yakumo's style.

Then, Yakumo Reimu began to tell her tragic story.

Her father was a modern person who accidentally wandered into Gensokyo, while her mother was a local. Because her mother fell ill and the native doctors of Gensokyo couldn't cure her, her father, who was originally a doctor, went out to find medicinal herbs.

Out of concern, she followed them.

Then...

In short, it's a heart-wrenching and extremely tragic story, ending with her father sacrificing himself so she could escape.

Unfortunately, everyone present had already seen through the other party's lie, and even Alice learned the truth through Mo Yi's telepathic communication.

Seeing that everyone present looked completely emotionless and showed no sign of sadness, Yakumo Reimu, who was secretly observing while sobbing, didn't know what to say.

Houraisan Kaguya and Alice Margot Royd are both outcasts who don't sympathize with humans, which I can understand. But you, 'Mo Yi,' shouldn't you at least show some compassion?!

P. S.: You all probably know who Yakumo Reimu is, right? I'm currently wondering how to mess with Xiao Hong. (laughs)

Chapter 130, Alice's Chapter 1.26: After taking a few bites of food, Alice suddenly looked up at Mo Yi, her eyes full of anticipation, and asked, "Mo Yi, I want you to come with me to the Demon Realm, is that alright?" "Of course—" Having experienced countless reincarnations in the Crimson Dream, Mo Yi already knew the script and smiled, "We don't need to be so polite." "But—" Alice naturally wanted Mo Yi to agree, but she didn't expect him to agree without even asking clearly, which left Alice momentarily at a loss for words. She was simply overjoyed. The reason Alice asked Mo Yi if he was going back was naturally because of her elderly mother, Shen Qi. Alice wanted to take Mo Yi back to Shen Qi to show her that her daughter had found someone to care for her and didn't need her constant excessive concern. Of course, there was another little thought behind it all: to make it a fait accompli.

My computer suddenly broke down.

My computer suddenly broke down. I can use QQ but can't connect to the internet, and the data port is broken too. I can only upload new chapters tomorrow after it's fixed. Frustrated and going crazy. (I can't post this because it's less than 100 words; typing on my phone is so tiring.) After finishing Alice's side story, I was planning to write about the Princess, but then I realized I haven't written about Honkai 3rd in a while, so I'll write a side story about our main heroine Kiana, instead. (Laughs)

Chapter 243: Mo Yi: Just call me Brother Yasuo!

Just as Mo Yi had suspected, this black-haired girl was none other than Yakumo Yukari, the cauldron of this village.

After learning of Mo Yi's existence from Yuuka Kazami, the other party became increasingly suspicious.

The man named Mo Yi is human, and is naturally opposed to monsters!

Because most monsters need human fear to be born and become powerful, only after they grow to a certain level, or a small number of monsters, do they no longer need the existence of humans.

However, once they lose the fear of humans, most of the youkai will degenerate or even die of natural causes. The remaining number can no longer be considered a race. Therefore, Yukari Yakumo created Gensokyo, keeping a small number of humans in the Human Village to form a sustainable ecosystem. (This is the author's own interpretation; please don't take it too seriously, just consider it a modification of the book.)

Ultimately, while monsters are the birthplace of humans, they are also harming and exploiting them. As the great philosopher Karl Marx said, this is a naturally existing class system.

Yakumo Yukari naturally had to be wary of the strong among humans. If they had no power to resist, humans would live obediently in the Human Village. But once they gained the power to fight against youkai, humans would inevitably awaken and slowly learn to resist, singing the song of "turning the tables and becoming masters of their own destiny." This was because it was human nature and aggression, and only in this way would humans become the true masters of the earth.

Furthermore, Yakumo Yukari discovered that Mo Yi was getting quite close to Houraisan Kaguya and Alice Margot Lloyd, which made her even more uneasy.

Her Highness the Princess represents the Eientei, and Alice is the Demon Realm Princess. If the man named Mo Yi's goal is these two forces, then it is far too dangerous.

A single powerful human can summon a legion of monsters to gang up on the opponent, but if the opponent has a force stronger than the entire Gensokyo combined, then what's the point of playing cats?

So she had no choice but to come!

So she pretended to be a little girl being chased by a monster to see if Mo Yi had any compassion, and to take the opportunity to get close to him and understand his personality and abilities.

Only by gathering sufficient intelligence can we find the most appropriate way to deal with any future situation, whether it is peaceful coexistence or hostility.

Then, just as she had guessed, the other party did indeed come to rescue her, an ordinary person.

In fact, Yakumo Yukari would prefer Mo Yi to simply ignore her pleas for help. This would show that he is someone who doesn't care about his own kind, and that he wouldn't take a path of 'rebellion against Gensokyo's because of the humans in the Human Village.

Now that she had been rescued, Yakumo Yukari continued to play her role well. With her years of experience and her tactical personality, she played the role of a pitiful human girl perfectly, without feeling that there were any flaws in her performance.

Unfortunately, Yakumo Yukari was completely unaware of the true power of the Magical Cat. No lie could hide the essence of the spirit and soul, and her disguise was utterly useless in Mo Yi's eyes, as if she were completely naked. Even her true identity was guessed by Mo Yi.

After Yakumo Yukari told her carefully prepared story, which she could use to participate in the Shenzhou Land Misery Contest, to her surprise, no one present showed any sign of sadness.

This is completely illogical!

This story took me several minutes to come up with, and even I find it pathetic!

Do you guys even have any compassion?!

Looking at the emotionless Mo Yi, Yakumo Yukari didn't know whether to be happy or sad. This meant that the other party was not the kind of saintly person. There was no need to worry that the other party would suddenly have a whim to launch a 'rebellion in Gensokyo's after seeing the plight of humans.

But such people are also very dangerous. Humans are all cunning and cruel monsters, but how could they know that in the eyes of a monster like her, once humans become cunning and cruel, they are countless times more terrifying than monsters?

Ultimately, many monsters originated from the darkness within people's hearts.

Monsters persecute humans because of food and the fear of being devoured, while humans persecute each other often for reasons that are hard to understand, such as pleasure (I just want to) or jealousy (I just can't stand the way the other person is).

With strength comparable to Yuuka Kazami and friendships with Houraisan Kaguya and Alice, such a person would still be extremely dangerous if they possessed a cunning and ruthless nature.

While outwardly still whimpering, Yakumo Reimu (or Yukari) was inwardly analyzing Mo Yi's personality and what to do next.

"That's really tragic—"

Seeing that the other party was constantly whining, Mo Yi realized that the other party might be Yukari Yakumo. He couldn't just punch each of the whining monsters. After all, Gensokyo was Yukari Yakumo's territory. In addition, given the other party's elusive abilities, offending her would have consequences no easier than setting the teleportation point to the Sunflower Field, unless Mo Yi stopped coming to Gensokyo altogether.

So Mo Yi had no choice but to play along, and said in a sorrowful tone, "So, Xiao Hong, are you planning to go back to the Human Village?"

"It's a pity we're on different paths, so I'll take my leave now."

Yakumo Reimu: "..."

Is this something a human being would say?

You saved me, then abandoned me in the Magic Forest. Why do you think an ordinary human girl like me can safely return to the Human Village?

This man's temperament is so unpredictable!

Being able to save someone proves that you have compassion, but what kind of behavior is it to just leave her there and walk away?

I, Yakumo Yukari, have lived for so many years, and I have never seen such a bizarre temperament!

"That--"

Yakumo Reimu would definitely not let Mo Yi slip away like this. Having finally gotten close to him, she was determined to see through his true intentions before she was willing to leave.

"Big brother, what's your name?"

Mo Yi: "..."

It seemed the other party was unwilling to leave, Mo Yi had no choice but to continue his deception. As for Her Highness the Princess and Alice, after receiving Mo Yi's instructions, they remained on the sidelines, observing the show.
