Chapter 289 Yun Mi's Past and the Mysterious Isadora
"Okay, now which news do you want to know?"
In a temple, Yun Mi sat down, took a sip of water from the cup on the table, and opposite her was Kurosaki Ichigo with a confused face.
"I want to know everything!" Ichigo said loudly, "It seems like I can only tell part of it?!"
"It's so troublesome..." Yun Mi shook the quilt as if he thought it was troublesome, then put it down, and suddenly said seriously
"About my identity, you should have guessed it?"
"...Miss Yun Mi...you are..." Seeing Yun Mi's serious look, Ichigo also said in a deep voice, "Ophelia Beylance, right?"
From the very beginning when Yun Mi told her about the Sky Veil giant beast, Ichigo had some doubts. She suspected that Yun Mi was a survivor of the 'gbl sect' who had personally experienced that disaster, and only those who had personally experienced it , to understand that matter so clearly.
In addition, she appeared as Ophelia before, and later spoke in that nostalgic and reminiscent tone, so he came up with this idea...
Before Rotes destroyed the creatures on the Sky Veil Beast, Ophelia hid and escaped from the Sky Veil Behemoth, and then changed her identity incognito and became Yun Mi, which can also explain a person who does not belong to the Void Circle and The origin of the strong man in the soul world!
"You are quite smart." Yun Mi smiled lightly, "The destruction came very suddenly at the beginning, it was Uncle Marcel who sent me out with all his might, and then came back to the present world all the way around. will be here."
"I changed my name and appearance, and I wanted to spend the rest of my life as Yun Mi..." She sighed softly, "But I didn't expect that I would return here as Ophelia in the end."
“It’s almost like…”
"As fate would have it."
She raised her head slowly, and there was a little confusion in her eyes. This was Yun Mi, whom Ichigo had never seen before. He couldn't help being infected by her emotions, and subconsciously said, "Fated?"
"Yeah... from the very beginning..." Yun Mi leaned back on the chair, shook his head, and said softly, "He never thought of letting go of any 'gbl sect' people, we will all die, so I came back, He wants I'm back, and he's coming to kill me."
"...Why are you so desperate." Ichigo whispered
"? Because you haven't seen the apostles..."
"It's not like you! The sister Yun I know has always been strategizing, as if everything is in her hands! There is nothing she can't do in this world! Save me in the hands of Xu, and save me in the hands of Bai Zai." Put me down, now even I who was saved by you are not in despair!"
Ichigo interrupted Yun Mi's words and said loudly, "You are so powerful, why don't you just give up like this?!"
Hearing Ichigo's words, Yun Mi was silent, and after a while she laughed happily, and then said, "...to embrace hope forever, and to burst out with great power for this insignificant little hope, this may be I like your reason."
"In order to save Rukia, you can challenge the world of souls with that little power; in order to save Inoue Orihime and Shifengin Yoichi, you can break into the apostle's lair. It's really... an amazing will, Ichigo."
She praised sincerely, "Go on like this forever, because whenever I see someone like you, I feel..."
"Maybe this world can really survive the destruction of the apostles..."
"It's not possible, it's certain!" Ichigo replied firmly
"That's all, you said, my old bones... are a little bit hot." Yun Mi seemed to sense something, and then said, "Is there anything else you want to ask? Don't worry, you still have enough time , I said that Rotes is about to wake up, I lied to you."
"After I came here, I used special means to kill the big octopus pretending to be me, and then pretended to be it to establish a certain connection with Rotes, so I know the current status of Rotes, his state is very No, it will take at least a day to recover."
Hearing that there is still time, Ichigo let go of his anxious heart. After thinking for a while, he said, "Sister Yun, you came yesterday, right? Why didn't you tell me all this when I met Luo Ding last night?"
"Lord Luo Ding?" But who knows, Yun Mi frowned, "I didn't go to see Lord Luo Ding with you, and I just arrived this afternoon."
? !
Her words surprised Ichigo again, and he was so surprised!
If Yun Mi only came this afternoon, then...
I went to inform myself last night...
Who is it again? !
The woman in the black robe, now that I think about it, Ichigo has very little impression of her, the only thing I can remember is the pair of…
Purple eyes, and Sister Yun's eyes are not purple, is it really not her?
So…
Who is she? !
Why did you come to remind me at that time? What is her purpose? How did she see through all this?
Ichigo couldn't help but his back felt cold and his head was numb. He looked at Yun Mi's puzzled expression, so he told what happened to him last night.
"..." After listening to his words, Yun Mi frowned as expected, and she said with some doubts, "Is there someone who came earlier than me? And even went to remind you?"
Seeing that Yun Mi was also thinking about who the woman in the black robe was, Ichigo suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and he hurriedly asked, "By the way, Sister Yun, Isadora... are you familiar?"
"Why did you mention her?" Yun Mi didn't answer his question directly, but asked Ichigo a question instead.
Don't use questions to answer questions!
roared in his heart, but Ichigo replied honestly, "I don't know why, I just think Isadora is a bit strange, like..."
"I've seen her somewhere before..."
"..." Hearing Ichigo's words, Yun Mi suddenly smiled, "Your perception is really sharp...actually..."
As she spoke, Yun Mi became serious, and she said in a deep voice, "When the disaster was about to strike, Isadura had already disappeared."
"Missing?!" Ichigo exclaimed, "Could it be that she..."
"No, don't doubt too much." Yun Mi shook his head, "No one can be sure whether Isadura was killed by Rotes like everyone else..."
"But... it can't be denied, the possibility that she has a problem..."
Yun Mi thought for a while, and then said softly, "I was brought up by Uncle Marcel since I was a child. After I became a priest, Isadora was my predecessor. After that, she became the director of the 'gbl religion' library, yes The only believer in history who has penetrated the 103,000 original books in it."
"One hundred and three thousand volumes..." Although I already knew this record before, I still couldn't help being surprised...
This sentence created the powerful strength of Isadura. One person holds 103,000 magic books, so as long as she is given time, it is hard to imagine what kind of terrifying existence she will become.
Such a strong man said that he would die quietly, but Ichigo absolutely didn't believe it.
"Isadura is a person I respect very much. No matter what question I have, I can get the answer from her. Such a person... If she really has a problem... that is really terrible."
Yun Mi looked at Ichigo and said in a deep voice, "If what you said is true, where have you seen the current Isadora, then you must pay attention, she might have her eye on you! "
"...Then the woman in the black robe that appeared last night...could it be Isadora?" After Yun Mi said this, Ichigo wanted to see if there was Isadora around, and he felt a little nervous Said fearfully
He is not afraid of those who come clearly, the apostles, Aizen, the worst is to fight with them, but he is not afraid of thieves stealing, but he is afraid of thieves thinking about it, just like Aizen is much more dangerous before the rebellion than after the rebellion.
"I don't know, but in any case, it's not bad news for you, at least..."
"She's helping you, isn't she?"
"...That's right..." Ichigo thought that it was true, no matter who the woman in the black robe was, at least she really helped him.
Although, you still can't let your guard down just because of this.
"Next... what should we do?" Seeing Yun Mi, Yihu seemed to have seen the backbone. At least at this moment, he believed that Yun Mi had more say in the sky curtain behemoth than himself.
"I will continue to cover you as 'Ophelia', and you..."
"Right now, go to Purgatory, Inoue Orihime and Sifengin Yoichi must be among them!"
"…good."
Ichigo nodded, actually he couldn't wait any longer.
Although according to what Yun Mi said, Zhiji will be safe and sound before Luo Tesi regains her strength and wakes up, but she is always worried.
It would be great if we could rescue Orihime and Yeichi earlier.
"According to my estimation, the recovery time of Rotes is about this time tomorrow, that is to say, you only have one day, and it will take you about four hours to rush from here to Purgatory without affecting your combat power. , which means that you only have a dozen hours to rescue people from purgatory."
"Purgatory is the place where the 'gbl sect' detains sinners, even I don't know much about that place..."
"But I believe in you, so go, I believe you will be able to rescue your companion."
"Sister Yun..." Ichigo looked at Yun Mi, he shook his head, "Why don't you go with me, it's too dangerous for you to stay here alone..."
"In case Rotes discovers his identity, how can one person deal with so many octopuses?"
"Don't forget... you are also... my teacher."
Ichigo said solemnly, "I won't let your sacrifice be in exchange for me saving Orihime."
Yun Mi is also one of the objects Kurosaki Ichigo wants to protect!
Hearing what Ichigo said, Yun Mi smiled
"Brat...when..."
"Need you to worry about me? I never remember that I have acted so weak..."
"..." Ichigo remained silent, while Yun Mi directly blasted him away "Don't think that I will die in the hands of these octopuses, they are not qualified enough, I come back after hundreds of years, not just to die In the hands of these things."
She also raised her head, her eyes were extremely firm, "Even if it is death, I will make Rotes pay the price!"
Seeing her appearance, Ichigo knew that no matter what he said, it was useless, and then he suddenly smiled, "Don't worry, Rotus won't wake up again, because I will definitely rescue Orihime!"
After finishing speaking, he pushed open the door and strode out.
At this time, the sky was still dark, and there was no octopus-turned priest on the street. He quickly shuttled through the buildings, away from the temple where Yun Mi was.
His heart was extremely surging at this moment.
Sister Yun...
Actually had such an experience...
Ophelia and Isadora... These two people I met for the first time in the Sky Veil Giant Beast, each of them had such a chance...
"Mr. Kurosaki?"
And just when he wanted to leave the city more quickly, the woman suddenly appeared in front of him and the familiar voice made Ichigo feel like an enemy!
Isadora!
It's Isadora's appearance and her voice, but Ichigo knows that under this skin is actually the soul of an octopus!
"Isadora?" But of course Ichigo would not reveal it at this moment, he asked calmly, "Why aren't you here in the library?"
"The seal on the gate of 'Purgatory' has become weaker, so I dealt with it." Isadora said a little tiredly, "It seems that outsiders have come to the Skyveil Behemoth, so Uncle Marcel asked me to add another one." The mechanism of calling the police, ah, sorry, the outsider we are talking about is not Mr. Kurosaki."
Speaking of which, she quickly apologized, and Ichigo didn't care about the octopus monster's apology at all, and Isadora's rhetorical question was the most important
"Where is Mr. Kurosaki? Why did you appear here in the middle of the night?"
Ichigo had already thought of an excuse when he asked Isadora before, and he said naturally, "I'm worried, so I want to go out for a walk by myself, don't worry, I will be back soon, Ophelia Leah told me that there are many forbidden places on the Skyveil Beast, so I just took a walk outside, and if I really run into it... maybe it will."
"I see..." Isadora seemed to accept Ichigo's words, she nodded, "Then see Mr. Kurosaki tomorrow. I haven't seen a person who loves reading like Mr. Kurosaki for a long time."
It's really just that there is no place to stay outside, Ichigo thought to himself.
However, the books taught by "gbl" are indeed very interesting. Ichigo himself is also a lover of literature and art. There are many books related to literature, philosophy and theology in the library, so he can be regarded as "love reading".
However, after bidding farewell to Isadora, a thought suddenly appeared in Yihu's heart within a minute...
That Isadora...
Is it really an octopus monster? !
