Chapter 83: Shikigami of Curse and Karma
“I still have my trump card!”
Saying this, the Nine-tailed Fox raised her tone . “Abe no Seimei, I curse you in the name of the Royal Nine-tailed Fox!”
“I curse you and all your descendants to have the same face as a raccoon . I want you and your family to be considered as aliens, as abnormals forever! I want you to become a fox demon from today! Ha-ha!”
In an instant, a fox illusion spell was shot at Abe no Seimei, while the latter seemed to be caught off guard and was cursed on the spot .
Visible to the naked eye, the appearance of the original human face of Abe no Seimei began to change dramatically .
His ears began to stretch and deform, his eyes became red and narrow and golden fox fur began to grow on his face .
After a while, Abe no Seimei’s face had already changed completely to a fox-like face!
“What......” Sumika opened her mouth widely, speechless .
After all, from the perspective of Japanese folk history and legend, Abe no Seimei had no fox-like face in the memory of future generations, so what was going on?
Was it possible that the long lost history had been hiding the truth? Or did the descendants deliberately make his portrait with an adult face in order to maintain his image?
Sumika couldn’t help but increase her concentration in order to not miss anything .
“There is no onmyoji technique in the world that can restore your face . This is the talented supernatural power that we fox family can only use only once in life . Ha-ha-ha-ha!” Seeing this, the dying Nine-tailed Fox smirked on the spot .
But as she kept laughing, she suddenly found out that it seemed that only she was talking, and the victim, Abe no Seimei, never showed any annoyance and helplessness, which made her look up and wonder .
Out of curiosity, Sumika also looked over at the moment .
“Enough?”
Looking at the Nine-tailed Fox, Abe no Seimei opened his mouth leisurely .
“What do you mean?”
The Nine-tailed Fox faintly felt that things were not under her control .
Ignoring her, Abe no Seimei held the crystal-clear 8-footed Jade with one hand and placed it on the top of her . He then began to start the seal with the other hand and quickly cast a spell .
Along with a series of movements, the 8-footed Jade moved and shimmered!
The Nine-tailed Fox only felt that an invisible suction came from the top of her head and her body was sucked in without any resistance since she had no demon power .
The 8-footed Jade, which was connected with the mind of Abe no Seimei, flew back to his palm instantly .
When Sumika got closer, she was shocked to see the Nine-tailed Fox with its size reduced to the limit inside the jade .
The Nine-tailed Fox seemed be cursing and screaming at Abe no Seimei and asked to let her go .
Seeing the Nine-tailed Fox unwilling to give up, Abe no Seimei smirked . “Well, it’s all set . ”
Removing the soundproof barrier he set on the 8-footed Jade, all the swear words of the Nine-tailed Fox sounded out .
Sumika frowned at the side, but Abe no Seimei was still smiling indifferently and continued to cast the onmyoji recovery technique into the jade to heal the Nine-tailed Fox .
When the Nine-tailed Fox became tired and started resting, he took the initiative to say . “Do you know why wasn’t I well-prepared and let your curse possess me?”
Not only the Nine-tailed Fox was shocked, but also Sumika felt excited to look forward to the answer!
However, the Nine-tailed Fox sneered . “Abe no Seimei, I advise you not to try to swindle me! There’s no solution to the curse at all . Do you think you can get a solution from me? Daydreaming!”
“What if I never thought about eliminating this curse?”
By the puzzled gaze of the Nine-tailed Fox, Abe no Seimei took out a large number of different casting materials and spread them all over the place .
“Your curse is really powerful . You can entangle me and my descendants...... But everything has its advantages and disadvantages . Because of the curse, you and I have already reached the [cause]......” Seeming to see her confusion, Abe no Seimei began to explain it casually .
“In the early years, while I was reading the secret manuals and scripts, I learned a great forbidden spell – [Karma Shikigami]!”
“If an onmyoji can reach the state of ‘cause’ with ghosts or demons and then collect the 49 rare kinds of casting materials, then they can achieve a casual contract and let the latter become his own shikigami!”
“If the [cause] does not disappear, the [effect] will not die!”
Pausing a bit, Abe no Seimei smiled and looked at the horrified Nine-tailed Fox . “Your curse entangles me and my descendants . For the same reason, you will become the shikigami of me and my descendants . ”
“You reap what you sow!”
The Nine-tailed Fox completely panicked as she was biting her lips and sighing helplessly .
After a while, the Nine-tailed Fox deliberately put on a pitiful look, licked her red lips, and pleaded sexily . “I beg you to let me go . I won’t fool you with illusion like I did to the old emperor, I can accompany you and do anything you like with my real body......”
“How do you compare a female body with one of the 3 strongest shikigamis in the nation?”
Abe no Seimei no longer talked and quickly began casting the forbidden spell .
It took a lot of effort and finally the white light symbolizing the establishment of the shikigami contract was dazzling in front of Abe no Seimei and the sealed Nine-tailed Fox inside the 8-footed Jade .
Almost at the same time, the Nine-tailed Fox fell down helplessly . As one of the 3 strongest monsters in Japan, she was actually fooled by a human onmyoji and was forced to sign the shikigami contract with her curse . She not only was controlled by him, but also had to obey the arrangement of his descendants!
This unprecedented sense of shame was unacceptable and unforgettable .
When he put on the 8-footed Jade soundproof barrier again, Abe no Seimei even ridiculed her, which irritated her and made her turn into jade-faced golden-haired Nine-tailed Fox again and raged!
“In fact, after we reach the contract, I can control all your abilities . Though I can’t solve the so-called curse, I can use the demon power in your body to make most of my face recover . ”
“Now, you should understand why I just helped heal you to quickly recover your demon power, right?”
Instantly, the fox face of Abe no Seimei suddenly disappeared by extracting the demon power of the Nine-tailed Fox .
In a blink of an eye, except a pair of slightly narrow and beautiful fox eyes, his human face had recovered .
Hiding the 8-footed Jade, Abe no Seimei looked at the stars peacefully and uttered slowly .
“My descendants with unknown names, when you see the memory I sealed inside the 8-footed Jade, I will no longer be alive, but congratulations on your career as an onmyoji......”
“Drop your blood on the 8-footed Jade and you can wake up the sleeping shikigami Nine-tailed Fox with the power of the curse......”
“May you hold your mind and do good deeds......”
Sumika suddenly found that the figure of Abe no Seimei turned into countless light spots scattered, as he talked .
The various landscapes around her also began to drift away as light spots .
Screaming, she opened her eyes again .
Sumika looked around but she failed to find Abe no Seimei and the Nine-tailed Fox?
She was holding the 8-footed Jade and standing in the main hall of the Imperial Palace .
Around her were the emperor, other representatives, maids and guards .
