"Let me introduce myself again. I'm a member of Thousand Eyes, who established a base in the four-digit Gate, the 3345 Gate. I'm White Yaksha, and I'm a friend of this black rabbit. In short, you should know that I'm a pretty girl who helped you a few times after your community collapsed.”
The elegant and ancient Kazu-style room was filled with a faint fragrance of smoke. The white-haired woman who called herself " White Yaksha " and had a bold smile on her face looked like a young girl. The evaluation of " Kimono Loli " by the 16th Nights was completely correct.
However, if her self-introduction was not exaggerated, then she was different from her appearance. She was a senior officer who could occupy a four-digit outer sect base in the world of the Boxcourt where the asura and Buddhas gathered. In other words, she was also a member of the monsters who could easily move the stars.
On the other side of the room, led by the black rabbit who introduced the person, four problematic children stood in a row facing the white yaksha. Flying Bird, who was used to sitting upright, revealed an elegance that was completely different from his arrogant personality. Unexpectedly, Sixteen Nights was also able to adapt to the environment of the wind very well. On the contrary, Yao, who rarely saw such a room, blinked her big eyes curiously as she looked at the courtyard. Half a step behind her, Sakuya, who was sitting in an impeccable posture, maintained her servant posture as usual.
And why did the black rabbit and the others come to look for this white yaksha? They had to go back to two hours ago.
===================================================
At dusk, Black Rabbit, who had returned with Sixteen Nights, returned to the fountain square to meet up with Flying Bird and the others. Of course, after learning that the two young ladies (plus a butler who had no intention of stopping them and was instead happy to watch the show) had made a bet with another community without permission, Black Rabbit, who was loyal, kind, hardworking, brave, dedicated, had a good figure and face, and even wore a sensational miniskirt and garter as a formal dress, immediately burst into a rage with a crying face.
--!-- With such a sorrowful cry, the black rabbit could only lower its ears and surrender to the two young ladies who had no intention of reflecting.
Fortunately, this was a game where even if they lost, they would not lose anything. After spending an entire afternoon chasing after Sixteen Nights, Black Rabbit was exhausted. In order to increase his chances of winning as much as possible and to appraise the item that Sixteen Nights had brought back, he brought the four Bestowers to the shop of Thousand Eyes, a community with appraisal and detection abilities.
Speaking of this, he had to mention the consequences of Sixteen Nights 'words,' I'm going to see the end of the world'.
According to Black Rabbit, the reward for defeating the Tory Tunis Waterfall Lord, who had challenged Sandbox Court's World's End, was a water god in the form of a huge white snake, a sapling of a water tree that could bring endless water. Seeing the black rabbit's lovable expression, it seemed that this gift was very important to the poor " No_Nome."
The owner of the Thousand Eyes shop and the ruler of the East Sandcourt district, where No Nome was based, had a passionate love for the black rabbit that transcended race and gender. It was this kimono loli, White Yaksha.
"What does that 'outer sect'?”
The curious Yao tilted his head with a rare expression. The white yaksha smiled and replied,"
"It's the door that separated the Sandbox levels from the outer walls. The smaller the number, the closer it was to the center of the city. At the same time, there were also residents with powerful strength living there.”
This boxyard city was divided into seven levels from the top to the bottom, and the doors that separated each level were marked with numbers.
Starting from the outer wall, there were seven digits for the outer gate and six digits for the outer gate. The further inside, the smaller the number was, and at the same time, it had more powerful abilities. In the Box Court, as long as one was in the four-digit outer sect, they would already be divided and occupied by the famous Asura God and Buddha. They would completely be in the non-demonic realm.
The black rabbit drew a bird 's-eye view of the Sandbox Court from above. It could be seen that the outer gate area was divided into several levels.
Seeing this picture, the four of them expressed their thoughts.
"... Super giant onion?"
"No, I think it's a giant Baumut.”
"That's right. It does look more like a Baumut.”
"Where's World Creation Mountain? En."
Sakuya, you've exposed your age."
"Huh? It can't be that exaggerated, right? I saw it when I was young."
"Hmm? What are you talking about?"
"…Ah, the times are different."
"Mr. Sixteenth Nights 'era is just right, but Miss Feiniao's was too early.”
"Yes, I am. In our time, it was already an antique.”
The four of them nodded at each other. Hearing these brainless thoughts, the black rabbit drooped its shoulders weakly.
"Hehe, good example. For example, the seven-digit outer gate was the thinnest outer layer of the Baumark. To further explain, this place was located on the east side of the East, West, North, South, and North regions. Once they walked out of the outer gate, they would arrive at the opposite side of World's End. There were some creatures that didn't belong to the community but had powerful gifts, such as the owner of the water tree.”
The white yaksha smiled and turned to look at the sapling in the black rabbit's hand. She was talking about the snake god who used the Toritani Waterfall as his home.
"Then, who played what kind of game and won? A competition of intelligence? Or is it a test of courage?"
"No, no, this water tree is the prize that Mr. Sixteen Nights obtained after defeating Lord Naga Goddess with his bare hands before he came here.”
When the black rabbit said this proudly, the white yaksha cried out in surprise,
"What?! Instead of cracking the game, he was going to knock them down directly? In that case, was Xiao Tong a child prodigy with a divine spark?”
"No, they don't think so. If it was a divine spark, he should be able to tell at a glance.”
"Oh, that's true. However, to defeat a Divinity, it should only happen if both parties had Divinity or if the power balance between the two races was very different. However, if one were to calculate the strength of the species, snakes and humans were basically the same.”
The so-called divinity did not refer to the natural gods themselves, but to the gifts that allowed the body to transform into the highest level of the species.
As long as he was bestowed with the Snake God's personality, he would become a huge Snake God.
As long as a person was bestowed with a divine persona, they would become a living immortal or a child prodigy.
As long as one was bestowed with the Ghost God's Divinity, they would become a Ghost God that could shake the world.
Moreover, having a Divinity would strengthen other gifts as well. In order to achieve their own goals, many of the common entities in the Box Court had set the first goal of "obtaining divinity" and continuously accumulated strength in order to enter the upper echelons.
"Does Lord White Yaksha know Lord Snake God?”
"Not only do we know each other, I was the one who gave that thing the divine spark. Although it was hundreds of years ago.”
Upon hearing this, Sixteen Nights 'pupils immediately burned with a restless spirit.
"Oh? Does that mean you're stronger than that snake?”
"Hmph, of course. I'm the 'class dominator' of the east side. Because in the East, no one in the community below the four-digit number can be on par with me. I am the strongest organizer.”
The words " the strongest organizer " made the eyes of Sixteen Nights, Asuka, and Yao glow. Sakuya, on the other hand, was smiling as calmly as ever.
"Is that so…hehe, in other words, as long as we can crack your game, our community will become the strongest organization in the east?”
"Of course."
"That's really exciting news.”
The three of them looked at the white yaksha with undisguised fighting spirit. The white yaksha seemed to have noticed their intentions and laughed loudly.
"Eh? Wait…wait a moment, three of you!"
The white yaksha stretched out his right hand to stop the panicking black rabbit.
"It's alright, Black Rabbit. I've always lacked opponents who can play with me.”
"He's really proactive. I admire this kind of person.”
"Huff, huff, is that so? But before we start the game, there's one thing we have to confirm.”
"What is it?"
The white yaksha took out a card with the flag of " Thousand Eyes " and the two goddesses on it from the hem of his kimono. He said with an arrogant smile,"
"What do you expect is a 'challenge'? Or a duel?"
In an instant, their vision changed explosively.
Their vision lost its meaning, and all kinds of scenes began to spin in their minds.
The grassland with swaying golden ears of rice, the hills with a white horizon, and the lake in the forest flashed through his mind.
The locations that they had never seen before in their memories repeated and swallowed them from the bottom of their feet.
The last few of them were thrown into a world with white snowfields and frozen lakes, as well as a world where the sun was moving horizontally.
This feeling was completely different from when he was summoned to the Sandbox Court. It was a miracle that could not be described with words.
There was only one star in the distant, dimly lit sky. It was the white sun that slowly circled the world along a horizontal orbit.
It was as if the miracle of creating a star and a world was presented in front of everyone.
The three of them were speechless and stood rooted to the ground. The white yaksha asked them again,
"I'll announce my name again and ask for your permission. I am the White Night Demon King, the star spirit of the sun and the white night, the White Yaksha. What you expect is a 'challenge' to the test? Or was it an equal 'duel'?”
Demon King White Yaksha
The three of them sucked in a breath of cold air again when they saw the astonishing boldness that shouldn't have come from the girl's smile.
The so-called " star spirit " referred to the main spirit that existed on a star or above. It was the highest level of species in the concepts of fairies, ghosts, and demons. At the same time, it was also an existence that could " bestow " gifts.
…Hmm? That brat…?
Maintaining the dignity of being the strongest race in the Sandbox Court, the white yaksha with a bold smile on his face shifted his gaze towards Huang Xiao Ye without leaving a trace.
That young man, only that young man, not only did he not show a shocked or surprised expression, but he also showed an expression that could not be considered relief or nostalgia.
…Interesting, really.
"The sun that runs horizontally and... right, White Night and Yaksha. Does that mean that the sun and the land around you are representing you?”
"Exactly. The lakeside and snowy plains of this white night, as well as the sun that keeps the world eternally dim. This is one of the game boards that I have.”
The white yaksha opened its arms, and the sea of clouds on the other side of the horizon immediately parted, revealing the sun that emitted a faint light.
The star spirit of White Night. The white night mentioned by Sixteen Nights referred to the phenomenon of the sun not setting in the west that could be seen in Scandinavian countries at specific latitudes such as Finland or Norway.
The so-called " yaksha " referred to the gods of water and earth, but they were also ghosts and gods who had the evil god side.
In this chamber where countless asura and buddhas gathered, she was the " star spirit " and " god " who was famous as the strongest species in the world.
White Yaksha was a powerful demon king that could be called the representative of Sandbox.
"Such a vast piece of land is just a game board…?”
"Exactly. So, what's your answer? If you choose 'challenge', I'll play with you a little-but if you want to' duel', that's another matter. As a Demon King, shouldn't I gamble my life and honor to fight?”
“……”
Asuka, Yao, and even Sixteen Nights, who was full of confidence in herself, could not immediately reply. They were still hesitating on how to respond.
They were not sure what kind of gift the white yaksha had, but it was clear that they had no chance of winning. The problem was that their self-esteem could not accept the fact that they had to take back their battle invitation in this way.
After a brief silence, Sixteen Nights, who seemed to have given up, slowly raised her hand.
"What a headache! I surrender, White Yaksha."
"Hmm? Does this mean that he doesn't want to fight, but rather accept the test?”
"Well, since you can prepare such an amazing game board, you are qualified. Alright, this time I will shut up and allow you to test it, Demon King.”
Seeing Sixteen Nights squeeze out these words with a bitter smile and disdain, White Yaksha could not help but laugh out loud. For the proud and arrogant Sixteen Nights, this should already be the greatest concession he could make, right? However," allow you to test " was a rather cute act of being angry, making the white yaksha laugh wildly while hugging her stomach.
After laughing for a while, White Yaksha held back his laughter and asked the other three,"
"Ha…Haha…Then, are the other three children the same?”
"…Hmm, I can also let you test it today.”
"Same right."
The two young ladies responded with mute expressions, which made the white yaksha continue to laugh in satisfaction.
“……”
However, Sakuya was the only one who seemed to be lost in her own thoughts. She was immersed in the strange environment around her and did not reply.
“……？Sakuya?"
"…I'm very sorry, Miss. As she recalled some things from the past, she was a little absent-minded. I should be the one to express my gratitude for letting me witness such a spectacular scene. I'm here to ask for the opportunity to accept the trial.”
“……”
Sakuya returned to her normal self after a moment of panic, causing Toya to unconsciously frown, but she quickly concealed it.
She realized that she didn't understand Sakuya at all. However, in this world, no, even in her previous world, she did not treat Sakuya as a servant. Therefore, if he was unwilling to say something, she would never ask.
However, the slight lack of oxygen in her chest made her very depressed.
Black Rabbit, who was watching the series of developments from the side in fear, finally touched his chest and heaved a sigh of relief.
"Really…really! Both sides should choose their opponents! Whether it was the newcomer who challenged the " Class Dominator " or the " Class Dominator " who accepted the challenge of the newcomer... even if it was just a joke, it was too cold! Furthermore, it was said that the White Yaksha was the Demon King…This was clearly something that happened thousands of years ago!”
"What is it? Does that mean she's the former Demon King?"
"Well, how is it actually?”
The white yaksha smiled mischievously, while the black rabbit and the other three could only hang their shoulders weakly.
At this moment, a sharp cry came from the mountains in the distance. The first person to react to this sound that sounded like a beast or a bird was Yoshi Kasuga.
"What was that cry just now? This is the first time I've heard of it."
"Oh…is it that guy? Perhaps it's just right to test the four of you.”
The white yaksha waved at the mountain range on the other side of the lake. Then, a huge animal that was about five meters long spread its wings and glided in the air, appearing in front of the three of them like a whirlwind.
When he saw the animal with eagle wings and the lower body of a lion, Kasugebe Yao shouted in surprise and joy,"
"Griffins…are they real?"
"Hmph, that's right. This guy was the king of birds and beasts. It was also an animal that had all the conditions of 'strength',' wisdom', and 'courage', enough to represent the game of gifts.”
" The white yaksha waved her hand, and the griffin landed in front of her. It lowered its head deeply to show its courtesy.”
" Alright, regarding the main test content…I'll ask the three of you to compete with this 'griffon' for one of the 'strength',' wisdom', and 'courage'. As long as you can ride on its back and fly over the lake, you'll be considered to have cracked the game.”
The white yaksha took out a card with the picture of two goddesses. Then, a glowing parchment that could only be used by those with the authority of the organizer appeared in the air. She moved her snow-white fingers and left words on the parchment.
[Gift Game Name: 'Griffon's Reins]
List of participants:
Sixteen Nights
Flying bird from afar
Kasugebe Sho
Huang Xiao Ye
[Prerequisite: Riding on the back of a griffin and flying in the air by the lake.]

" Oath: Respecting the above content, based on the name of honor, flag, and authority of the organizer, the game of gifts will be held.
'ThousandEyes' Seal
"I'll challenge you."
As soon as the white yaksha finished speaking, someone immediately raised his hand. Even his fingertips were stretched out. It was Yao. She was staring at the griffin with envy. For her, who was relatively well-behaved among the three of them, this was a rare passionate gaze.
"Young Lady!"
"It's okay, it's okay."
Sakuya smiled at Sakuya, who had been worried for him for the first time. It was rare for Yao to walk so decisively towards the white yaksha and the griffin. Sakuya, who was in the position of a follower, subconsciously reached out her hand and stopped herself.
He could understand why Yao was so excited, but even so, he wanted to eliminate anything that could put the girl in danger.
On the other hand, part of the reason why Yao rejected Sakuya so decisively was because he was depressed. Neither of the two parties involved noticed this.
"Hmm, you seem quite confident, but this thing is not easy to deal with, right? If I fail, I won't just be seriously injured, right?”
"It's okay, no problem."
Yao's gaze was fixed on the griffin. His eyes were glowing with excitement, like a child who had finally found the treasure he had been looking for. Sixteen Nights and Flying Bird, who were standing beside him, revealed a bitter smile.
"Huang, has Kasugami-san always been like this?”
"Yes, I am. Miss had always been like this when it came to animal friends.”
Her tone was as respectful and polite as ever, but Sakuya had unknowingly removed her iron mask. Looking at the worried expression on this elegant and perfect follower's face, Flying Bird snickered as if he had seen something good.
Remembering the incident at the fountain square, Asuka stole a glance at Sakuya and whispered in her heart,"
(Although she usually appears to be a quiet and thoughtful person, she immediately becomes flustered when it comes to matters related to Kasuga.) Really…I'm a little envious of Kasugebu-san.）
On the other side, Yao, who was already staring at the griffin, ran straight over.
However, the griffin flapped its wings and retreated.
It should be to avoid implicating the white yaksha during the battle.
Although the griffin spread its wings and its huge eyes shone as if it was threatening Kasuga, she still followed the griffin and ran closer and closer.
She stopped a few meters away from each other and observed the magical beast in front of her.
(... Awesome, it really has the upper body of an eagle and the lower body of a lion.)）
Vultures and lions, the king of birds of prey and the king of carnivorous beasts. Although Kasuga had been telepathically connected to many animals, it was limited to creatures living on Earth.
This was her first time facing a creature with an ecosystem that far surpassed the unicorns and snakes that Black Rabbit and the others had encountered in World's End. First of all, she cautiously opened her mouth to talk to the other party.
"Uh…well…nice to meet you. My name is Yoshino Kasugebe.”
“！”
"The griffin jumped in surprise. The alertness in its eyes lowered, revealing a slightly confused expression. This proved that the gift of Kasuga was effective even against magical beasts.”
"Oh…that girl, can she communicate with griffins?”
He opened his fan in admiration. There were two ways to get on the back of the king of the two species, the griffin.
The first was to compete with " strength " or " wisdom " and win, which was to achieve their goal by making it yield.
Secondly, it had to acknowledge the challenger's own will. They were recognized by the kings who had the domineering aura and dignity of kings, and they rode on them.
No matter which method Kasuga chose, since she could communicate with the griffins, she might be able to negotiate with them on favorable terms. Kasugebe took a deep breath before continuing,
"Can you let me sit on your back…and use my dignity as a stake to determine who is better?”
