Chapter 669 – Angry Gryphon

　　The Black Killer Group’s crowd respectfully arranged a place for Lin Qiye and the others to stay, on a floor just below the one Shen Qingzhu lived on, mainly because it was more convenient for him to come down and look for Lin Qiye at any time.

　　In the spacious large private room, Yuzurina sat on the bed with her bare feet on her knees, looking out the window at the city in a daze.

　　Tonight’s several large-scale battles had directly knocked Osaka into chaos, and to this day, one could still see flames and smoke coming from afar, and a large portion of the city had been plunged into pitch darkness, with the flickering glow of police lights everywhere.

　　So, is this what this country really looks like ……

　　”Still not sleeping? Little Yuzuri.” Kyousuke-san walked in with a ball of futon in his arms and started to hit the floor under the bed.

　　He walked over to the window and glanced down, the corner of his mouth twitching slightly as he hurriedly averted his gaze.

　　This building of the Black Killer Team was very tall, and they lived on the penultimate floor, already overlooking half of Osaka, and it was indeed a bit creepy to look down from afar at this height.

　　”No, I’m not sleepy yet.” Yuzurina shook her head, “Daddy, are you afraid of heights?”

　　”Who, who said that?” Uncle Kyousuke pretended to glance downward without a care in the world, “I just happen to be a little panicked ……”

　　She grinned, and instead of poking at his lie, she changed the subject and asked, “Dad, are all the gangs …… like the Black Slayers just now?”

　　”Why are you suddenly interested in them?”

　　”Because, I feel that they are not quite the same as the yakuza I know ……” Yuzurina said, “In the past, when mom was still around, she used to study some of the things that happened in the yakuza, and there were photos about yakuza disputes all over the room. It looked scary …… but the Black Slayers were not like that.”

　　”There is also a difference between the yakuza and the mob.” Uncle Kyousuke smiled, “Do you know, why your mom is so concerned about the yakuza?”

　　Yuzurina shook her head blankly.

　　”Do you know her real last name?”

　　”I don’t know …… I asked my mom, but she never even told me, and the name of the family house isn’t hers either ……”

　　”That’s normal.” Uncle Kyousuke wasn’t surprised by this, “Yuzuru-nee, your mom’s real name was …… Kazamatsuri Akiko before she married over.”

　　”Kazamatsuri?!”

　　Yuzurina’s eyes widened as if she thought of something, “Is it …… that Kazamatsuri?”

　　Uncle Kyousuke hmmmed, “It’s one of the two major yakuza families that are on par with the Kankawa family in Kanto, the Kazamatsuri family. Your mom was the eldest daughter of the Kazamatsuri family back then.”

　　Yuzurina’s mouth dropped open in shock.

　　”Then why did she leave the Kazamatsuri family again? And deliberately concealed her existence ……”

　　Uncle Kyousuke’s expression was a bit embarrassed as he gently stroked his beard and said, “Because …… back then she eloped with me.”

　　Yuzurina was doubly shocked!

　　”When I was young, your father I was the most famous cowboy in Shinjuku.” A nostalgic look emerged in Uncle Kyousuke’s eyes, “Back then, as the eldest daughter of the Kazamatsuri family, she was an existence that called the shots in Tokyo, basically every night she would come to find me to drink with her, and without moving, she would give the highest grade of alcohol and gifts, and it was because of her that I was able to stay at the top of Shinjuku’s cowgirls’ list… …”

　　”And then?” The fire of gossip blazed in Yuzurina’s eyes.

　　”Later, her family knew about this matter, the Kazamatsuri family’s family culture is very strict, the old family master successively grounded her at home for a long time, coupled with some forces within the Kazamatsuri family competing for power, her power and position within the family was gradually hollowed out, and with the birth of the third child of the Kazamatsuri family master, she lost the possibility of succeeding to be the head of the family altogether, and the status of the family also hit rock-bottom ……

　　That day, she sneaked out of the house, didn’t make a big deal of driving a limousine to the store, but wore a hat and mask, and found me in a very low-key manner, crying and telling me that she had nothing left now, and asked me if I could accompany her to drink once more.”

　　”Did you agree, Dad?”

　　”Of course I didn’t, I’m a professional cowgirl, and I won’t accompany a guest without paying for it.” Uncle Kyousuke raised an eyebrow.

　　Yuzurina grinned, “What a scumbag ……”

　　”That’s why I resigned from the cowboy store.” Uncle Kyousuke shrugged.

　　”Huh? Why?”

　　”She asked the same thing at the time.” Uncle Kyousuke smiled slightly.

　　”At that time, I picked up her face with my fingertips and told her, ‘Woman, the money you’ve dropped on me before is enough to buy me the rest of my life, my career as a cowherd has been brilliant because of you, and when it ends because of you, allow me to take off this suit and robe. ……

　　If possible, in the days to come, I would like to accompany my fallen yakuza princess and become your knight’.”

　　Yuzurina’s little mouth dropped open into an O shape.

　　”No wonder you were able to be a top cowboy when you were a young man, dad ……” Yuzurina couldn’t help but lament, “And then what happened?”

　　”That night, the top cowboy who lost his job, and the fallen yakuza princess, eloped.”

　　Kyousuke uncle looked out the window, seems to be reminiscing about something, the corner of his mouth with a smile, “We spent a very happy and beautiful time, we do not lack of money, no lack of time, no one to bother …… Until your mother was on the verge of giving birth to a baby, I thought that this kind of happiness would last forever. ”

　　Uncle Kyosuke’s smile faded.

　　”But I was wrong.” Uncle Kyousuke’s voice chilled, “During the time she was sent to [Pure Land] to give birth, I waited anxiously at home …… until that day when she came home with you still in your arms and cried all night, her body covered with scars… …

　　Later I learned that they had taken your brother and, moreover, had done some experiments on your mother.

　　It was also at that time that I, who hadn’t done anything bad, suddenly transformed into a [Mastodon] level wanted criminal.

　　When I saw the wanted notices all over the streets, I realized that what they wanted was the ‘King’s Blood’ …… on my body, and for that reason, they also detained your younger brother, and since he also awakened the ‘King’s Blood’ on his body ‘, then to that group of people from the [Pure Land], a baby who has yet to remember is certainly the best test subject!”

　　Uncle Kyousuke looked at the night outside the window, his fists clenched tightly as he sneered ……

　　”Who do they think they are? Messengers of the gods? What kind of things are those? From the very beginning, they’ve just treated us like ants, like livestock ……

　　But they forgot that ants have feelings too.

　　The mole crickets, have been enraged.

　　Since they have put the name of [fierce ghost] on me, then simply …… I will go to be this [fierce ghost]!

　　I swear to your mother that I will definitely make the [Pure Land] pay, and I will definitely bring your brother back, and then the family will be reunited ……

　　So, I brought three swords and killed the [Pure Land].”

　　Uncle Kyousuke’s words fell, and the air fell into silence.

　　Yuzurina silently sat beside him, her head lowered, not saying anything, only her eyes were a little red, she knew the result ……

　　”I failed.” Uncle Kyousuke looked like he had lost his entire body’s strength, and said with a bitter smile, “The seven oracle ambassadors, they were too strong, I didn’t even manage to touch the [Pure Land] with my own hands, and I was seriously injured by them and knocked down to the mortal world ……”
