Monster Master: Evidence of the Way

Chapter 331 Suicide note

Kazamatsuri Mikan's advice is still ringing in my ears. It seems that I must be fully confident on this trip.

Of course, just in case, you should write a suicide note first.

"What bad luck."

Baihu fiddled with the gloves on his hands. "For a warrior, dying in battle is the highest honor. There's no need for anything else."

“While that’s true…”

Yi Yin sighed, "But I still want to leave something for this world, no matter what."

"Alright alright."

Baihu knew that it was useless for her to talk, so she should just let Yiyin do what he wanted to do.

"I won't write it anyway. There's no need for that." Baihu looked at Xuanwu and said, "Xuanwu, what about you?"

"(A suicide note needs to be read to someone, but I don't have that kind of person anymore.)"

"Um...won't you leave something for Senior Qinglong and Senior Suzaku?"

Yi Yin asked, "They must be very worried about you."

"(The relationship between the Four Gods isn't as good as you think. We're all bound together by interests, and we even marry to enforce this bond. I heard that a certain generation of Xuanwu before me had a bad relationship with that generation of Four Spiritual Masters.)"

"Objectively speaking, there hasn't been a generation with such a good relationship like ours in recent years."

The White Tiger also supports Xuanwu's statement.

"Is it because we're both women..."

Yi Yin thought so, and then asked, "In that case, you have to write more."

“(…No need. I have faith in you. You will definitely lead us to survival.)”

Xuanwu's words seemed so real and unreal that Yiyin felt a little embarrassed.

It seemed that they were determined not to write a suicide note, so they had to write it themselves.

Yiyin's eyes dimmed. No matter who takes care of the affairs after death, it would probably be painful.

Finding pen and ink, Yiyin began to write smoothly and fluently.

He was writing it for Isabella to read.

Isabella must have a way to keep an eye on him at all times, Yi Yin was absolutely certain of this. Because Isabella always came at the right time, he definitely didn't believe her if she said she didn't use some tricks.

If Isabella could see Yi Yin's suicide note, it would mean that Yi Yin had died in the City of the Dead. Whether he was wiped out by the system or died from his own previous ignorance, he was dead and could no longer do anything. Therefore, he had to arrange everything in advance.

That being said, there is actually nothing to arrange.

Since arriving on Blue Star, Yi Yin's every move has been almost forced upon him, to the point where he doesn't even know where to go in the future.

Perhaps Bubulu and the others knew... No, they definitely knew. As native Blue Star people, the biggest difference between them and him was that they had the aura of Monster Masters.

Even if "that incident" has some impact on the tail-end team, they will definitely recover immediately.

"..."

Yi Yin wrote and tore the paper, her thoughts in a mess.

He didn't know what to say. Isabella was the fifth of the Four Heavenly Kings of Ouroboros, the culprit who destroyed his alma mater. If he took the initiative to show his goodwill towards her, wouldn't that be tantamount to collaborating with the enemy?

So what about the past? — Yi Yin had been on Blue Star for so many years that her memories of the time before her time travel were already quite hazy. If it weren't for Isabella chasing her to Blue Star, she would have probably decided to stay there forever.

The limited communication between Yiyin and Isabella on Blue Star did not allow him to fully understand her thoughts.

"What kind of magic does that Snake Queen have?"

Iin had always been critical of the Snake Queen. Her creation, Ouroboros, had already caused countless tragedies. Yet, she showed no sign of stopping. Perhaps, to fulfill her ambitions, she would do even more bizarre things...

The more Yi Yin thought about it, the more excited he became. He wrote thousands of words, which turned out to be a manifesto denouncing the Queen of the Tail-Eating Snake.

This includes both deep accusations and criticisms of the Snake Queen, as well as regret and pity for Isabella's misguided path. He also strongly emphasized that Isabella should stop and turn to the light as soon as possible.

When writing about the painful parts, Yiyin even began to shed tears unconsciously.

Seeing this, Xuanwu silently handed him a handkerchief.

"Is this really a suicide note?"

Baihu turned it over and over and looked at it, and found that it was covered with a lot of scribbles and looked very exaggerated.

Yiyin took the handkerchief and wiped his cheek, then put down the pen without saying a word.

“(It doesn’t look like you wrote this to her.)”

Xuanwu only took a casual glance and guessed the general idea, "(You are paving a way for her to escape, right? Let her take this thing so that she can quickly integrate into your companions.)"

"Just think of it as insurance."

Yiyin said, "I didn't give her anything. If she wants, she can use this to start a new life."

"Are you so sure that she will follow the path you have chosen for her?"

Baihu asked curiously, "It seems like you know her quite well."

"do not know."

Yiyin shook his head frankly, "But I know that Ouroboros will be destroyed. It is the will of heaven."

"..."

“(……)”

Seeing that Baihu and Xuanwu were both silent, Yiyin knew that he shouldn't say much.

"Although Ouroboros is certainly not a good thing, I think... it will at least exist longer than the Monster Master Management Association."

Baihu hesitated and expressed his thoughts, "Xuanwu, what do you think? We have fought against Ouroboros several times before. Do you think they will be destroyed like this?"

"Hey, Baihu-senpai, there's no need to bother Xuanwu-senpai with this kind of thing. Let her use the 'Heluo Shutu' somewhere else where it's more needed."

Yi Yin smiled and changed the subject.

"Tomorrow, we'll head to the City of the Dead, just as Fengjie instructed. I'm not sure what she means by 'triple baptism'... but one thing is certain: we'll inevitably have to meet the spirits of the dead."

"Many souls have died at my hands. I don't mind letting them die again."

Baihu turned his wrist, trying to adjust himself to the best condition.

"(What about you, Iin? You and your companions must have thwarted many evil plots. Some souls with deep resentment still seek revenge even in death. If they all appeared at once, could you handle it?)"

Facing Xuanwu, Yiyin responded with a smile.

"Senior Xuanwu, it might be difficult if I'm alone. But I have you. Together we can level up together, no problem."

When Baihu saw Yiyin like this, his brows gradually furrowed and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
