PM the following day
In the vicinity of Hikano-machi, a suburb of Tokyo.
Yue Shengge stood on a tree branch on the mountain peak and looked at the distant village.
The lights looked like stars in the sky.
A warm smile appeared on his face.
There were many flowers planted on both sides of the river, although only a few flowers bloomed due to the season.
It was the right time of the year, and the flowers that bloomed along the way would definitely be very beautiful if there was a Summer Festival.
"Isn't it beautiful, our village?”
A voice rang out from under the tree.
"Not bad."
Yue Shengge, who seemed to have already known who had come, said calmly.
Although it was night time, this did not hinder Yue Shengge's vision at all.
"In the past, she would have been even more beautiful.”
The bald man in white looked proud but nostalgic.
" The village is shrouded in darkness. There's also a clear river, a lotus root pond across the river, and a tower that can overlook the entire village.”
As he spoke, the man's tone became higher and higher. He looked at the village with a lost gaze. He must have fallen into his own memories.
"But everything has changed. It's all... I can't go back."
Pursing his lips, the man's voice turned deep and sorrowful.
" I've stepped into karst caves from tens of millions of years ago, and I've also entered forests that have existed since an unknown time. These places have existed for a long time, but they are still constantly adapting to the changes of the present.”
Yue Shengge's eyes were calm, and her tone was melodious.
The bright moonlight shone on his body, as if it was covered with a layer of silver gauze.
The hem of his clothes was blown up by the mountain wind, making him look like an immortal who was about to fly away to the moon.
“......”
Obick opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but hesitated.
After living for so long, how could he not understand this matter?
It was just that understanding was one thing, and whether he could accept and adapt to it was another matter.
After living here for so many years, no one cherished this village more than him.
Yue Shengge understood his thoughts, but the gears of the world would not stop because of one person.
There was nothing wrong with reminiscing about the past, but it was not good to be too immersed in it and not be able to recognize reality.
"Soon, this place might be selected to develop a business district and a health center.”
Yue Shengge looked up at the bright moon in the sky and said softly.
"What?!"
Obik let out an unimaginable sound, and his bulging eyes trembled crazily.
He could barely accept the current changes. If he were to transform it into that appearance, the village of the past would be completely over.
"In order to prevent you from being unable to accept it, I came over to inform you in advance.”
Yue Shengge glanced at Obick, whose expression was gradually distorting, and continued.
If possible, he did not want to attack this demon who had not hurt anyone and was only bound to the past.
Of course, if he couldn't convince them, he could only resolve it at that time.
"You want to bind the village to the past, but have you ever thought about the thoughts of the people living in the village?”
"Speaking of which, you should be considered the ancestor of those people.”
Yue Shengge pointed at the village that was flickering with lights in the distance.
One man and one demon had superb vision, and they could even see people full of hope for the future through the open window.
The development of the city would allow people to have a more convenient life and provide many jobs.
The villagers were very willing to accept it.
This idea would also become contradictory to Obik's, and there would inevitably be conflict between the two sides.
"I don't want to fight you. If I do, you will definitely be defeated.”
His tone was calm, as if he was speaking the truth. Even Obik couldn't help but twitch his lips.
However, sensing the powerful and turbulent power of light that restrained him, Obik felt that this man was right.
"After the last person who remembered what the village looked like disappeared, the village probably really disappeared.”
"Think about it yourself. There's still time.”
Yue Shengge didn't care about what Obik was thinking. She looked behind her and nodded.
Stepping on the branches, he took a step forward and soared into the clouds like he was riding the wind.
He had already tried his best. What happened after that was no longer within his control.
To embrace the past and die together, or to bear in mind the past and witness the future.
It was all up to Obik.
" That person's strength is so strong!"
A man wearing a monk's hat, a kasaya, and round-rimmed glasses walked out. He looked at Yue Shengge, who had disappeared into the horizon, and exclaimed.
That gaze just now definitely recognized his original body.
Fortunately, the other party did not have any ill intentions. Otherwise, he felt that the other party would probably be able to defeat him in less than a move.
"He should be Ultraman Diga, who has been widely spread recently, right?”
A pitch-black object rose from the shadows, its tone filled with fear.
For a shadow like him, that light was a disaster.
Not to mention that he had occasionally seen that terrifying move on the computer when he sneaked into other people's houses.
"Obick, what do you think of what he said?”
The monk agreed with the Shadow Wizard's guess, but he was more concerned about Obik's thoughts.
Whether it was because they were both demons or because they had been friends for many years, he did not want Obik to die because of this.
That person was telling the truth. As an expert in lying, the monk could be so sure.
"I don't know…"
Obick shook his head and said as he looked into the distance, his eyes filled with confusion.
Years of persistence, how could it be changed by a few words from others?
However, those words did give him a different idea.
"As he said, you are indeed too obsessed with the past.”
The monk also looked at the village in the distance, his eyes full of emotion.
He might not have been in this village for as long as Obik, but he was more active and accepted the changes obediently.
Or maybe it was because of the dark demons, and it was easier for Obik to get into a dead end.
"Why don't you go deep into the village and communicate with them for a period of time?”
The monk's eyes lit up as if he had suddenly thought of something.
Obick, who was looking at the village in front of him, turned around and looked at the monks of his clan.
"Just like me, perhaps you will have a different experience.”
The monk stretched out his hand and said with a smile.
"What should I do?"
At this moment, Obik did not know what to do, so he could only listen to the opinions of his own kind.
"Oh... If he wanted to deal with a lot of people, he would open a mobile soba noodle stall.”
The monk clapped his hands and said.
Even though it was called a village, there were still many residents in this generation of Hikino Town. Otherwise, it would not have been selected as a development area.
"A soba noodle stall…I know."
Obick said as he looked down the mountain.
