Ch 217 : The true condition for Sayu's Eerie state

The group pondered the words of the Wanderer, and it seemed that he knew the whereabouts of Beelzebul…

Moreover, his words indirectly confirmed that Beelzebul was likely still alive…

However, before the group could form any conclusions, they heard Kamisato Ayato slowly speak up:

"Ah, truly, with such serious injuries, the recovery process should be quite troublesome, right…"

"Truly terrifying, this Eerie power…"

As Ayato spoke, he walked over to Rosalyne, pulling her out from the debris and rubble.

"Now, I'm going to take her to repair her body. You wouldn't stop me, would you?"

"Although I've said that I won't harm you… although to outsiders, I'm that graceful head of the Kamisato clan, if you repeatedly push my boundaries, I will have a temper too…"

But the group didn't pay attention to Ayato's words.

Instead, they slowly moved, surrounding him in the middle!

It was clear that he and Rosalyne were both not normal right now, and they were hiding a huge secret behind them.

They couldn't let them leave so easily!

"Oh? It looks like you all want to stop me…"

In response to the group's obstruction, Ayato wasn't surprised.

It seemed as though this was all within his expectations. He casually spoke:

"But can you stop me?"

In the next moment, Ayato's face began to twist, and Eerie power began to radiate from his body…

The group froze again.

What was this situation?

Was Kamisato Ayato also being controlled by Eerie corruption all this time?

"There are two Eerie powers present here right now…"

Ayato slowly spoke:

"Although in a direct confrontation, one against two, I may not be a match..."

"But they are not entirely under your control. You are merely using their rules, struggling to guide their actions..."

"Since that's the case, let me be more straightforward..."

"I don't wish to have a conflict or tear off the façade with you for now. Let's part ways here..."

"Before the Shogun's great cause is completed, we will meet again..."

"At that time, I will invite you to witness the true eternity created by the Shogun!"

The group had to admit that Ayato made sense.

With their current strength, trying to restrain the Eerie state Ayato was almost impossible...

With that, Ayato, taking Rosalyne with him, swaggered out of the Kamisato estate and disappeared into the dense forest...

"Hey, everyone, listen to me. I secretly placed a ninja tracking mark on the head of the Kamisato clan..."

At that moment, Sayu suddenly spoke up:

"Although the head of the Kamisato clan told us not to obstruct him, he didn't say we couldn't follow him secretly!"

"We'll quietly follow him and find the hideout of those big bad guys!"

"Hahahaha~ Little raccoon, I didn't expect you to think so thoroughly?"

Arataki Itto burst into laughter, casually patting Sayu's head, and said:

"You really are a talent! And our Arataki Clan is currently in a rapid expansion phase, just the kind of rare talent we need—no one is turned away, the more the better!"

"So... have you considered switching from the Shuumatsuban to our Arataki Clan?"

Sayu, however, unwillingly and somewhat angrily pushed Arataki Itto's hand away, seeming a bit upset, and said:

"I'm not a raccoon... I'm Sayu! And this is a tanuki, it's a little tanuki costume!"

"Also... don't just touch my head, I won't grow taller!!"

In the next moment, Sayu's face twisted, and eerie power began to emanate from her body...

Claws grew from her hands, and she directly severed Arataki Itto's right hand at the wrist!

All of this happened in an instant, and no one could react in time.

After losing one eye, Arataki Itto had now lost his right hand!

But Sayu seemed unsatisfied.

She glared at Arataki Itto fiercely and angrily said: "You dared to hinder my growth... unforgivable... unforgivable!!!"

Everyone watched this scene and realized they had made another mistake...

Earlier, when they were at the Narukami Shrine, everyone thought that the condition for Sayu's eerie state was that someone disturbed her sleep...

But perhaps because their attention was diverted elsewhere, they had overlooked looking beyond the surface to understand the real issue...

The fundamental condition for Sayu's eerie state wasn't simply being disturbed during sleep.

Instead, sleep was one of the means for her to grow taller, and being disturbed during sleep equaled hindering her growth...

And just now, when Arataki Itto patted Sayu's head, she perceived it as an obstruction to her growth, which led to her being controlled by the eerie power!

Sayu's eerie state condition is that someone obstructs her growth!

Su Yuan's mind raced, thinking about how to resolve the situation…

Otherwise, one of either Sayu or Arataki Itto would have to be sacrificed.

Soon, Su Yuan had an idea—could it be that Sayu's eerie state condition, like Kirara's before, isn't an objective factor but one that is influenced by subjective factors?

After all, a lack of sleep can indeed hinder growth to some extent…

But the idea that patting someone's head prevents growth is really just superstitious nonsense, with no scientific basis...

If Sayu could deeply recognize this in her heart, perhaps the eerie state could be undone!

"Sayu, the idea that patting your head stops you from growing is just superstition!"

Su Yuan shouted, attracting Sayu's attention, while Kuki Shinobu seized the opportunity to rush to Arataki Itto's side and perform urgent first aid to stop the bleeding.

"Superstition...?"

"Sayu" looked at Su Yuan in confusion.

"Yes, superstition! For example, the idea that being in a room with an umbrella up will stop you from growing, or that someone crossing over your head will stop you from growing—all of that is fake, with no scientific evidence!" Su Yuan continued, but Sayu's expression showed no significant sign of softening…

"Yeah, yeah, when I was a kid, I used to play that game all the time in the house, not for anything else, just for fun!"

Arataki Itto also quickly agreed, saying:

"Also, the goat jumping game—bending down, straightening your back, and letting someone jump over you, isn't that basically like crossing over your head?"

"My friends and I in the Arataki Gang used to play it every day, and look at us—we all grew tall, right?"

Su Yuan noticed that after Arataki Itto said these words, "Sayu's" expression visibly softened a little…

Sure enough, having this big guy like Arataki Itto say these words carried more weight than if he himself had said it!
