章節 658: -649- [ Senji Ryakketsu ]
When Rozen took out the talismans, two people immediately reacted to it.
"Hey."
"You."
Subaru and Mutsura noticed this scene, exclaimed in surprise, drawing everyone's attention to Rozen.
However, Rozen paid no attention to their reactions, directly activated the talismans in his hand, causing them to arrange themselves like an army and encircle Hinowa.
Following that, Rozen, right in front of everyone, formed hand seals and chanted a spell.
"—————————"
As this incantation resounded, Subaru and Mutsura widened their eyes in succession.
"This is!"
"The 'Senji Ryakketsu'!"
Subaru and Mutsura were moved at the same time.
The 'Senji Ryakketsu'.
This was the only surviving work of the great onmyoji Abe no Seimei.
In history and legend, Abe no Seimei was always regarded as an expert in exorcising and appeasing spirits, but in reality, his most superior skill was divination and fortune-telling.
According to historical records, Abe no Seimei successfully predicted the renunciation of Emperor Hanazawa.
Therefore, Abe no Seimei was always a master in the field of fortune-telling, and the 'Senji Ryakketsu' was a summary of his experiences as an onmyoji, a kind of Liuren-style divination.
Originally, Abe no Seimei's works also included the previously mentioned 'Sangoku sōden on'yō kankatsu hoki naiden kin'u', but that had long been lost, and only the 'Senji Ryakketsu' had been passed down.
Now, this original work was in the hands of the Izanagi family, the most prestigious family in Onmyodo, and was preserved in the Izanagi family's library.
Given this, Subaru and Mutsura naturally couldn't fail to recognize it.
Because, at this very moment, what Rozen was chanting was the divination method from the 'Senji Ryakketsu', using the inscriptions for transmission.
"The sun as yang, differently as yin, in the four lessons, observe their five elements, take those that are mutually restrained as the use."
Accompanied by the sound of the inscriptions for transmission, the talismans surrounding Hinowa began to flicker with light.
These lights turned into beams of light one after another, converging toward the direction of Hinowa like spotlights, eventually gathering on the divination plate in front of her, causing the light flowing on its surface to suddenly intensify.
"Rozen-sama?"
Hinowa looked extremely astonished at Rozen.
To this, Rozen only responded with one sentence.
"Concentrate."
Rozen spoke this way.
"With this timing, your accuracy in divination should improve significantly."
Although Rozen himself did not possess the ability to observe the stars, nor did he have the talent of a shrine maiden, and thus couldn't make much progress in fortune-telling, by using the inscriptions from the 'Senji Ryakketsu' to boost others' fortune-telling abilities, it was something achievable.
In this way, Hinowa's accuracy in divination should improve, and even if there were any barriers or magic protecting the 'Cannibal Candy', they should still be able to obtain some clues.
"Y-Yes!"
Hinowa quickly focused her mind and continued to pray. Her fingers continued to gently tap on the divination plate, making the brilliance on the plate appear increasingly rich.
Soon, as the brilliance on the divination plate bloomed, a line of text appeared in the air.
"What is this?"
Looking at the emerging text in the air, Charl showed a puzzled expression.
The text that appeared in the air was in ancient script, something Charl, who hailed from an English earl's family, couldn't recognize.
On the other hand, Rozen and his group recognized the content of this ancient script.
"'On a moonless, lightless night, the fangs of the demon shall gnaw upon the pearl hound, to strengthen oneself.'"
This was the content of the ancient script.
"'On a moonless, lightless night,'" murmured Hinowa.
"'The fangs of the demon shall gnaw upon the pearl hound?'"
Subaru and Mutsura furrowed their brows.
"'To strengthen oneself,'" Rozen squinted his eyes, deep in thought.
In this situation, the ancient script began to slowly disappear, and the light in the room dimmed.
"Boom!"
Only then, the talismans suspended around Hinowa ignited and disappeared.
Everyone looked at each other and finally focused their gazes on Rozen.
"What does this mean?"
Yaya voiced the thoughts in everyone's minds, perplexed.
Especially Charl and Sigmund, they didn't even know the content of the divination, looking completely puzzled.
On the other hand, Hinowa, Subaru, and Mutsura grasped the situation to some extent.
"'On a moonless, lightless night, the fangs of the demon shall gnaw upon the pearl hound.' This probably refers to the appearance of the 'Cannibal Candy' on a night without moonlight," Subaru said.
"And this 'pearl hound' seems to be the target," Mutsura added, offering his interpretation.
Putting the words of the two together, Charl and Sigmund finally understood the content of the divination.
"So, in the next moonless night, if we find this 'pearl hound' and lie in ambush around him, we can catch the 'Cannibal Candy,' right?" Sigmund made this high-level conclusion.
Charl also understood.
"But who is this 'pearl hound' referring to?" Hinowa pointed out this question, feeling puzzled.
This was the question on everyone's mind.
Suddenly,
"I... I got it!"
Charl seemed to think of something, stood up, and hastily spoke.
"You all wait here!" Charl exclaimed.
After saying this, Charl quickly dashed out of the room, and it was unclear where she went.
"Charl!"
Sigmund hastily followed her.
At the scene, only Rozen and his group remained.
"It seems that Miss Charl has some clues," Yaya said uncertainly.
But this was likely the truth.
"Then let's wait here for her. Hopefully, she brings good news," Rozen shrugged, expressing this to the others.
The others nodded in succession.
Then,
"What exactly just happened?" Subaru looked at Rozen, somewhat accusingly, "Wasn't that the divination from 'Senji Ryakketsu'? How did you know how to use it?"
"Yeah," Mutsura also looked at Rozen, frowning, "That's a secret of our Izanagi clan, passed down from ancient times. Even the branch families haven't seen it. How did you know?"
Saying this, Subaru and Mutsura both stared at Rozen closely, their expressions somewhat stern.
"Subaru, Mutsura, don't be like this."
Hinowa spoke up a bit and advised them, but his gaze was also on Rozen, appearing somewhat hesitant to speak.
Seeing this, Rozen casually smiled.
"What's so strange about it?" Rozen waved it off, "The Akabane family has always been a family of onmyoji. We once stood on equal footing with the Izanagi clan in Kyoto. Knowing about 'Senji Ryakketsu' is quite normal, isn't it?"
Saying this, Rozen still wore an indifferent expression.
"As for how it was recorded within the family, that's not my concern."
Rozen dismissed the question in this way.
This made Hinowa, Subaru, and Mutsura hesitate to pursue further, and they could only exchange glances and ultimately give up.
So, a huge part was pinned on the Akabane family.
Not long after, Charl returned.
And with Rozen and his group, she headed to the location of the 'pearl hound.'
