The First Volume: Gensokyo Doesn't Need Special Abilities Chapter 2: The Power to Twist Reality and Fantasy

  Gensokyo, near Youkai Mountain.

  There is a very elegant Japanese-style courtyard here.

  This is the home of the wandering, the eternal 17-year-old voyeur... no, that's not right, it's the residence of the eternal 17-year-old youkai sage, Yakumo Yukari.

  The courtyard is planted with beautiful cherry blossom trees.

  Because the entire Labyrinthine House was set with an independent boundary, cherry blossoms do not bloom for a short time only in spring every year like in the outside world, but instead are forever in bloom.

  Under the cherry blossom tree, there was a boy who looked about 16 years old, delicate as a doll and beautiful like an elf, quietly playing the guqin.

  The boy wore a luxurious Taoist robe with black base and golden edges, his long hair as quiet as the darkest night spread all over the ground.

  It is Chi Mo, or Ba Yun Mo.

  "Mr. Mo, your red tea."

  With a gentle smile, Lan lightly placed a cup of fragrant red tea on the low table beside Bachiko Moku, wearing a Han-style Taoist robe.

  "Good job, Lan."

  The corners of his mouth were filled with a elegant smile, and he nodded his head in gratitude towards Lan Qing.

  Looking at Bayun Mo, Lan Wei's face turned slightly red as she said, "Mo Young Master doesn't have to be so polite."

  After finishing speaking, Lan did not leave but instead gently knelt down beside Bayun Mo.

  "Hmm? What's wrong? Want to listen to me play the piano again?"

  Baiyun Mo looked at Lan beside him and couldn't help but ask with a smile.

  Lan nodded slightly with some shyness.

  "Mr. Mo's piano skills are really amazing!"

  "Hehe, since you've said so, Lán, I'll just have to make a fool of myself then."

  Slender fingers like white jade danced on the strings, and the sound of the qin, like a clear spring in a secluded valley, echoed throughout the courtyard.

  Accompanied by the sound of the guqin, Bachiroku Moku sang softly.

  Along with a rendition of "Jin Li Sao", Lan gently closed her eyes, immersing herself in the sound of Ba Yun Mo's zither and singing.

  In Gensokyo, most of the residents are youkai who have lived for unknown centuries. These youkai can understand almost all human languages due to their extremely long lifespan. Additionally, Yakumo Yukari was a third-year student in the foreign language department during her time as a human before becoming a boundary youkai, so she has no difficulties communicating with others.

  This song was originally written for a female voice, but the voice of Yakumo Mokou possesses an unusual ability that ignores gender differences and displays a charm that can conquer everyone.

  Lan gently leaned her head on Baiyunmo's shoulder, her nose surrounded by the unique scent of lily-like fragrance on Baiyunmo's body, and she felt a little dizzy.

  The aura on Bayun Mo's body not only smelled like lily flowers, but also had the same ability as lily flowers to make people feel drunk and dizzy, causing those close to him to unknowingly become infatuated and fall deeply in love.

  Reborn as a boundary youkai, I have been living in Gensokyo for nearly three years now. Although Yakumo Yukari was very fond of these 2D characters in her previous life, she didn't rush to conquer those girls like other cross-dressers did after discovering herself in Gensokyo.

  For the past three years, Yakumo Yukari has been quietly living in her home on the outskirts of Gensokyo, observing both Gensokyo and the outside world through her boundary-crossing abilities, leading a reclusive life.

  Except for the time when Yuyuko was excited about Meirin's birth and decided to hold a banquet at Hakurei Shrine, Yakumo Yukari never left Gensokyo again.

  Thus even if the entire Gensokyo knew of Yakumo Yukari's existence, no one else but Yuyuko and Ran as well as the always wandering Chen had ever seen her.

  This behavior made Zi extremely satisfied and even more fond of his younger brother.

  Originally a person was a racial monster, although purple was taken care of by blue in life, but in fact, the heart is lonely.

  She has no relatives.

  Now that she suddenly has a younger brother of the same race, Yoru is extremely delighted in her heart, although on the surface she looks calm and carefree. It's precisely because of this that Yoru is even more worried that Yakumo Moku will become like those main characters who obtain powerful abilities and then impatiently become human-shaped walking cannons.

  This will trouble her greatly.

  After all, when Yiyun Mo was still in the interspace nurturing his new body, Zi could see many things about his past life through Yiyun Mo's soul.

  Those rampant tuhao girls, of course, are also aware of it.

  For the past three years, Bā Yún Mò has been living in the Lost Road House with single-minded devotion. Apart from using the Boundary's power to observe the outside world, he has been studying various methods of using Boundary powers under Zǐ's guidance.

  Having become a demon, Yayoi Sumi also grew in power like other demons, mainly relying on the accumulation of time.

  Many cultivation methods that can make humans strong in a short period of time (in the eyes of monsters, tens to hundreds of years is just a blink of an eye) are completely unsuitable for monsters.

  Almost all of the monsters are strengthened by accumulating time.

  Therefore, powerful great demons are all living beings who have lived for countless years.

  However, as a Kekkai's oni, Shiki's younger brother, Yakumo Sukekiyo's innate talent is undoubtedly very strong.

  Even if he was born just three years ago, Yakumo Mukuro is no ordinary oni that can be opposed.

  Moreover, Zi unreservedly taught him her methods and experiences of using Boundary's power.

  Since he is a yokai of the same boundary as Murasaki, it's only natural that Yakumo Mukuro also possesses the ability to control boundaries.

  This ability is, in fact, a terrifying power that can overturn the existence of things. As everyone knows, the existence of things is based on the foundation of boundaries. Without a surface, lakes cannot exist. Without outlines, mountains and skies cannot exist. Without a large boundary, Gensokyo would become a chaotic mess.

  If all boundaries in the world were to disappear, then the whole world would return to a state of chaos before the creation of heaven.

  Manipulating the boundary is also creating and destroying. In theory, purple can create new existence and destroy existing existence. Among the demons, this ability has already been able to directly confront the strongest gods.

  Purple can also cut through space, move instantly to anywhere, or just move a part of the body. Not only physical space, but also paintings, dreams, stories, etc., can be moved into.

  This is the power of purple, and also the power of Yakumo Tatsu.

  Unlike the already existing Purple, the newly born Yakumo Sumi's demonic power is not strong, although he can barely activate some of his innate abilities, but it's still far from being able to use them as freely as Purple does.

  That kind of power which can only be obtained through accumulation over millions of years is not something that Hachiguma Tsumuji can grasp in a short period of time.
