Chapter 153: The Elixir of Immortality Appears!

Destiny Trading Club.

Ars was with three girls watching TV together.

Since 'almost' no one else came, they had a lot of free time.

They are a combination of three different races, namely Idataen, Zombies, and Sword Spirits.

"Oh, it's started." Ars said suddenly.

"What started? Restia asked next to him.

"Just see for yourself."

With Ars in control, the anime broadcast on TV was changed and showed a large house showing the wealth of its owner.

"It was the house of the bamboo cutter who looked after Princess Kaguya."

Rea immediately recognized the house on TV.

"Something will happen, right?" Restia guessed.

Ars smiled without answering, and hugged Est who was sitting on his lap tighter.

"…"

Seeing his silence, Rea didn't dare ask and obediently watched with the others.

....

That night, Kaguya reveals that she will return to the moon, much to the shock of all of Heian-kyo.

Many people debated the authenticity of the news. There are those who believe it, and there are also those who think that it is just Kaguya's lie to reject her suitors who come every year.

The person who acted the most intensely after learning this news was none other than Emperor Murakami.

He has a special relationship with Kaguya. The two of them often secretly commit adultery, and he knows some of Kaguya's secrets that no one else knows.

Kaguya had such extraordinary beauty that they put her behind the scenes like a princess, and didn't let anyone see her.

How could Emperor Murakami be willing to let her go? Moreover, the relationship between the two is like husband and wife.

After tasting Kaguya's body, Emperor Murakami was no longer interested in other women.

So Emperor Murakami has prepared an army to intercept the fleet from the moon. But his efforts were in vain.

Facing spaceships with technology that surpasses even modern civilization, what can an army armed with bows and swords do?

In the end, Emperor Murakami could only helplessly watch as Kaguya was taken away by the spaceships and returned to the moon.

....

"Isn't that a UFO? So Princess Kaguya is an alien? This is different from the Taketori Monogatari I studied at school."

With wide eyes, Rea covered her wide open mouth with her hands, and was stunned to see the live broadcast on TV.

She even came out of the shop to verify. Even from where she was standing, she could see dozens of cube-shaped UFOs hovering above the city.

"Don't believe too much in history books. Most of them have been revised by the government of the time, and hide the truth from future generations."

Standing behind Rea, Ars patted her shoulder, then walked forward.

"Where are you going, boss?"

"I'm going for a short walk, there are things I have to get no matter the price."

Ars waved his hand, and his figure slowly moved away.

"That airship's technology looks more advanced than the Spirit Ship."

Restia also went out to watch the UFO.

Comparing the Spirit Ships in her home world to the UFOs in the sky, she smiled wryly.

"Spirit Ship?"

"Ah, that's a unique means of transportation in my home world. If you want to hear it, let's talk about it inside."

"Um."

Then Restia and Rea entered the shop again, and saw Est watching TV alone.

....

The appearance of the UFO caused panic among the residents of the capital. Fortunately, the other party had no intention of attacking.

After picking up Kaguya, the UFO flies off and disappears in the night sky.

Emperor Murakami forbade scholars or anyone else to document the events of that night. Otherwise, the punishment is beheading.

While the outside world is quietly discussing the appearance of UFOs, there is a big secret going on behind the scenes, which if it gets out, will cause war and chaos to get to it.

Elixir of Immortality!

Before Kaguya returned to the moon, she handed over the Elixir of Immortality (Hourai Elixir) to Emperor Murakami and her parents so that even if they never met again, they could exist at the same time forever.

However, neither Emperor Murakami, nor Okina and Ouna wanted eternal life without Kaguya by their side.

He was afraid that information about the Elixir of Immortality in his hands would spread, especially the Fujiwara Clan manipulating him.

Emperor Murakami was worried that the Immortality Elixir would bring disaster to the world if it fell into the wrong hands.

So, he gave the Elixir of Immortality to his most loyal subordinate, and told him to burn the Elixir of Immortality on the top of Mount Fuji.

....

On a dark night lit only by moonlight, an old man wearing a yukata with a traditional belt and head covering was running while hugging a jug.

Suddenly a strangely dressed young man blocked his way.

The old man stopped running, his expression tense, and cold sweat dripped down his forehead.

"Excuse me, I want to pass."

He thought the other party was someone sent by Emperor Murakami after learning of his act of defiance.

Before he let out a breath as he passed by the young man, his body stiffened after hearing what he said.

"Tsukuyomi Iwakasa. You are going the wrong way, that is not the direction to Mount Fuji."

After Ars said that, Iwasaka quickened his pace and ran as fast as he could.

"Stop."

One word from Ars made Iwasaka unable to move no matter how hard he tried.

"Who exactly are you?"

Feeling that his body was no longer under control, Iwasaka felt horrified and afraid. Having witnessed a UFO previously, his view of the world had been shattered.

There are many magical and mystical creatures in the world.

Standing in front of him, Ars took the jug that Iwasaka was holding.

"Elixir of Immortality obtained. My long wait is finally fulfilled."

"Give it back to me! Without it, my daughter would have died from her illness."

Iwasaka gritted his teeth, trying to remove the restraints on his body, but in vain.

He had only one daughter, and suffered from a serious illness that no famous healer could cure.

Iwasaka doesn't want to see his daughter die before him. So, when he received the Elixir of Immortality from Emperor Murakami, and ordered him to burn it on the top of Mount Fuji, he chose to defy the order.

He intended to let his daughter drink the Elixir of Immortality!

"Are you sure you want to give the Elixir of Immortality to your daughter? What awaited her in the future was only eternal torment and suffering. Trust me, I understand this aspect better than you."

"Then what should I do! I have tried all kinds of treatment, but my daughter's disease is getting worse every day. There is no other choice but that, it is the only hope left."

Luckily, Ars had prepared sound isolation so that Iwasaka's loud screams weren't heard by anyone else.

"I beg you, return the Elixir of Immortality."

Having regained his mobility, Iwasaka did not hesitate to prostrate himself on the ground and beg.

As for fighting back?

He's not a fool. There was no chance of winning facing the mysterious young man in front of him.

"A father's love is truly extraordinary."

Seeing Iwasaka's attitude of being willing to do anything for the sake of his daughter's recovery, Ars admired his dedication.
