Chapter 306: Painful Farewell

Ye Yun and the rest were also holding their breaths. That grayish mist had saved Ye Yun, but they werent sure if this mist was friend or foe, until someone appeared before them.

Boss!! Chu Yi was overjoyed. The grayish mist was actually Su Jin holding a longbow.

But both Kano Mai and Ye Yun looked a little puzzled. Su Jin marched over and glanced at Miyamoto Tooru as he said sternly, You cant kill these people. Leave now.

Miyamoto Tooru froze for a second, then yelled back angrily, I cant kill them just because you say so? Im not only going to kill them, Im going to kill you too!

Im talking to your Master, not you. Su Jin glared icily at Miyamoto Tooru, then looked at the Bloody Sakura Sword in his hand.

Thats not Jin, said Kano Mai without hesitation.

Uh huh. Thats not the way he behaves, said Ye Yun with a nod.

Chu Yi was confused. He asked Su Jin, Youre not Boss?

Su Jin looked at them and replied, Ive accepted his body and he is my slave from now onwards. He has exchanged his body for your safety, so all of you just have to stay here and watch. I will make sure you leave this island safely.

What?! The three of them paled in horror. Su Jin had actually given his own body in exchange.

Who are you then? Miyamoto Tooru understood now that Su Jin had chosen to exchange his body for a higher power just like he had, and it seemed like even the Bloody Sakura Sword was afraid of this higher power.

He is Chimimoryo. The blood red color in Miyamoto Toorus eyes intensified and his tone of voice changed. Chimimoryo, youre one of the most formidable characters on this island, but you ought to know the rules. This fellow has also given me his body and I have to grant his wish. Otherwise, I wont be holding up my end of the deal.

That has nothing to do with me. Ive also promised to protect his friends. Are you telling me to let this deal fall through? said Chimimoryo with a disdainful snort. Just like what the Bloody Sakura Sword had said, Chimimoryo was one of the most powerful ones on this island. The sword was very powerful too, but it wasnt powerful enough to fight with it.

But I found a slave first! argued the sword.

Find another one then. Otherwise, Ill have to kill you! said Chimimoryo through Su Jin.

The Bloody Sakura Sword was silent for a moment, before it suddenly sliced through the air. It was hoping to kill the three team members while Chimimoryo wasnt paying attention. That way, it would be able to fulfil Miyamoto Toorus wishes, while foiling Su Jins plans. Even if Chimimoryo got angry after that, it wouldnt be able to change anything.

You must be tired of living! Chimimoryo was furious as he pulled the bowstring back. Before the string could be released, howling, angry ghosts and monsters appeared around the bow, and they shattered the attack from the Bloody Sakura Sword.

Chimimoryo pulled its bowstring back again once more, but this time, the gray mist it shot out turned into a terrifying demon that yanked the Bloody Sakura Sword right out of Miyamoto Toorus hands.

NO!! You cant do that! The sword shrieked in horror, but the bloody glow on its blade was torn away by the demon and rust started growing on the blade.

Miyamoto Tooru could also sense that the energy that had filled his body earlier had disappeared. He wasnt sure if the sword had been killed or just sealed by Chimimoryo.

Su Jin had a faint smile as he nodded at his teammates. His eyes slowly turned cloudy as he handed control of his body over to Chimimoryo now that it had done what it promised.

But just then, Miyamoto Tooru suddenly started cackling. HAHAHA! Su Jin, youre one lucky guy! I cant believe you managed to turn the tables even when the situation looked impossible! But do you really think this is the end? Did you think Id be so stupid as to just torture them for so long and give you the chance to make a comeback?

Go to hell! Miyamoto Toorus eyes were wide as he clenched his fists tightly. Kano Mai and Ye Yuns bodies stiffened suddenly and they started struggling.

NOOO! Su Jins eyes were clear again as he roared angrily and charged at Miyamoto Tooru. His punch went through Miyamoto Toorus chest and shattered his heart.

Cough! Cough! Miyamoto Tooru had a contemptuous smile on his face as he ignored the arm that had pierce his chest and said to Su Jin, You thought youd won? This is the best outcome to me! Ive killed these two women, Ive seen the pain in your eyes, and I dont have to be the Bloody Sakura Swords slave anymore! Thats the best

Su Jin didnt wait for him to finish his sentence and pulled his arm back out. Miyamoto Tooru sprayed a mouthful of blood out before falling to the ground with a loud thud. He was dead, but he still had a smug smile on his face.

Su Jin quickly spun around and ran toward Ye Yun and Kano Mai. The two of them were on the brink of death and they both had a helpless smile on their face when they saw Su Jin coming toward them.

Im sorry! Im sorry!! Su Jin apologized profusely, the pain nearly tearing his heart to shreds. He looked up with a start and said, Ill save you guys! There must be a way to save both of you!!

No need, Brother Su. Ye Yun shook her head and said to him, Miyamoto Tooru inserted some internal energy into our heart meridians and now, that meridian is broken nobody can save us now.

There must be a way!! bellowed Su Jin. He shouted to Chimimoryo, Please, save them! Save them and youd be able to fulfil your side of the deal! My body will be yours!

Chimimoryo flickered slightly, then Su Jins eyes turned cloudy as he used his own mouth to respond to him, I cant save them. I am Chimimoryo, a weapon designed to kill. I can only kill others, I cant save anyone!

Brother Su, after I was chosen to be an owner, Ive been living in constant fear, so this is actually a release for me! And to have met someone who truly loves me toward the end was wonderful too Im really happy. The light in Ye Yuns eyes slowly faded, but she still had a satisfied smile on her face.

Su Jin grabbed hold of her hand, but no matter how hard he held it, he couldnt hold on to her life. Ye Yun slowly lost any sign of life, and her previously warm body slowly grew cold.

No no!! Su Jin howled in pain. They had gone through so much and they could be a happy couple why why did things turn out like that

Boss, Sister Mai said Chu Yi through his tears.

Kano Mai didnt say anything and just smiled as she looked at Su Jin. She nodded slightly, as though this was just an ordinary goodbye and she would see him the next day. She stopped breathing and looked like she had merely fallen asleep.

Su Jin grabbed hold of Kano Mais hand as tears covered his face. Ye Yun was gone and Kano Mai was gone too. He had failed to protect both of them. So what if he was almost as powerful as a god in the real world? In the Handbooks universe, they were as small as ants. A change in just one rule was enough to wipe all of them out.

Su Jin knelt on the ground in shocked silence as he felt like his soul had disappeared along with the deaths of the two women. He only slowly snapped out of it when light started to shine on the surface of the island again.

He was like a zombie now. But just then, the voice of Chimimoryo appeared in his consciousness again.

Theres nothing to be sad about. Dont you know what sort of power the Handbook has? Reviving the dead is nothing. Chimimoryo seemed very familiar with Hells Handbook and couldnt stand the way Su Jin was behaving.

Revive the dead? But this Challenge none of the people who die in this one can be revived. Su Jin shook his head. If they could be revived, he wouldnt be in such despair. He had been able to revive Chu Yi, so he could revive Kano Mai and Ye Yun the same way. But the rules of this Challenge specifically said that this method would not work.

You just cant use the power of the Handbook to do so, right? But if youre powerful enough, you can just use your own power, said Chimimoryo disdainfully.

Use my own power? What do you mean? Su Jin blinked in confusion. Could one revive owners even without the power of the Handbook?

You just need to become a god. Gods have the ability to control life. As long as youre powerful enough, you can revive them, said Chimimoryo without skipping a beat.

Are you serious?! Su Jin was rather shaken by this new revelation. He hoped it was true, but he was afraid that it might not be.

Of course! After my previous owner became a god, he revived all his friends and family. Is it that shocking? asked Chimimoryo in return.

It wasnt really shocking so to speak, but he had never heard about this possibility. However, Chimimoryos words had given him hope. As long as he worked hard to become a god, there was a chance that he could reverse this situation.

Thank you for telling me this! But but why did you do that? asked Su Jin. The deal had fallen through since the fact that Ye Yun and Kano Mai died meant that Chimimoryo had failed to do its part. Chimimoryo was very powerful, but it was unable to change this reality. Since it couldnt have Su Jins body, Su Jin couldnt understand why the longbow would still offer him useful advice.

This isnt the end of the deal. You bring me to the real world, and as long as you become a god and revive them, Id still have done my part, right? said Chimimoryo.

Su Jin was a little surprised. He didnt expect Chimimoryo to be this quick-witted. But it wasnt so easy to outsmart Su Jin.

We can continue with the deal, but we need to amend the conditions, said Su Jin.

Chimimoryo hesitated for a moment, then said, What changes do you want to make?
