Chapter 1021: Devil Castle

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

[Black God Cavalry Corps]: With the Black God Horse Den as the vessel, this stone stele has received a massive amount of power from the Black God Horse Den, greatly raising all attributes. All members of the Corps can receive power from Black God Horses, and their power can be fused. Soldiers will receive power from the Black God Horse Den, and the Corps Formation will be a Black God Horse. The limit for this Corps has increased by one million soldiers.

After looking at the Black God Cavalry Corps’ information, Zhao Fu felt quite shocked because the Cavalry Corps’ information was different to that of other Special Corps. Ordinarily, Corps merely received some sort of power.

However, the Cavalry Corps not only received power but could also share and fuse power with Black God Horses. This made the cooperation between rider and mount even closer.

Moreover, the fusing of their power could result in a cumulative power that was greater than the sum of the individuals.

Zhao Fu had not expected such a thing; just this alone made the Cavalry Corps more powerful than the other Special Corps. Because they also had warhorses, in battles between Corps, the Cavalry Corps would have an advantage.

Following this, Zhao Fu went to the Giant Wolf Den and fused a Corps Core into it. Countless traces of blood-red aura spewed out, and the countless Giant Wolves sensed this power and howled.

The Den gave off a powerful blood-red light and leaked out a large amount of blood. The blood formed a massive, ferocious-looking wolf of blood that was five meters long, and it gave off a dense aura of killing.

The limit for this Corps has increased by one million soldiers.

The Giant Wolf Cavalry Corps’ information was similar to the Black God Cavalry Corps. Next was the Giant Deer Den.

Similarly, countless traces of blood-red flowed out as a powerful aura expanded out, causing countless Giant Deer to cry out. The Den gave off boundless blood-red light, and blood flowed out, forming a massive blood-red Giant Deer that turned into a blood-red stone stele.

The limit for this Corps has increased by one million soldiers.

Following this, Zhao Fu created the 27 other Special Corps and picked out elite soldiers from the army to join them. Because the Corps only had limited positions, those in them had to be elites among elites.

Finally, Zhao Fu went to the Devil City, planning to create the final Corps. All of the buildings here were built in an ancient Japanese style, looking quite elegant and beautiful. There were sakura trees throughout the city, creating a pretty and leisurely atmosphere.

Zhao Fu did not pay much attention to the scenery and directly entered the Devil Castle. However, he soon stopped because he came across many Devils.

One was quite beautiful and enchanting and gave off a noble and beguiling aura. She wore a light violet palace dress – this was one of the Three Great Devils, Tamamo-no-Mae.

She was leaning against a pillar, her palace dress quite losses, revealing her long and slender snow-white legs and much of her large breasts. She looked at Zhao Fu with her beautiful eyes and lightly bit her lip, looking quite flirtatious.

Legends had it that during the time of the Japanese Emperor Konoe, Tamamo-no-Mae was a golden nine-tailed fox who had turned into a world-class beauty. She was knowledgeable and beautiful, being called Japan’s number one beauty and also the number one learned woman.

There was another woman who was extremely beautiful, and her jet-black hair fell to her calves. She wore a white dress stained with blood, and strangely, there were three candles bound to her hair with blue flames on them. She was Ushi Mairi.

She was a specter from legends that was filled with jealousy and anger. Because she had been abandoned, she continued on as a spectre, fuelled by her hatred.

When most people thought about spectres, they thought of semi-transparent ghosts or white hazes, but Ushi Mairi gave off a blood-red light. From 1 AM to 3 AM, she would hammer nails into a sacred tree, which was an ancient method of cursing.

Ushi Mairi was an extremely jealous type of Devil, and she wore an iron ring with three candles. If she hammered the nails and cursed someone for seven days, the cursed person would die. However, if anyone discovered her, the curse would fail.

There was also a pretty woman with an alluring body, who only wore a piece of red cloth. She had a calm smile as she looked at Zhao Fu. She was Dodomeki.

It was said that Dodomeki stole eyes from men for herself, and if she could obtain 100 eyes, she would become an invincible Devil.

There was another graceful beauty wearing an elegant palace dress. She also looked at Zhao Fu flirtatiously – this was Fuguruma Yobi.

Toriyama Sekien wrote about Fuguruma Yobi in Gazu Hyakki Tsurezure Bukuro. She was a book cart that had manifested due to the emotions and attachment from the love letters in her cart. The Japanese people came to view her as a Devil that induced children to read.

Fuguruma Yobi was said to be a Concubine of Emperor Muramaki of the Heian period and was incredibly beautiful. However, she was killed out of jealousy by another Concubine. She was versed in songs and poems, and when she died, she used her blood to write a curse, resulting in the death of Emperor Murakami.

There was another woman who looked quite cold and had her hair coiled up. She was tall and wore a white kimono that showed her shoulders. She had a gloomy smile as she looked at Zhao Fu; she was Hone-onna.

The earliest records of Hone-onna were from Konjaku Gazu Zoku Hyakki by Toriyama Sekien. There was a man called Shiro who could not endure the days of poverty with his wife, so he separated from her. He married the big miss of a wealthy family and became an official. However, he increasingly despised this new life, and he could not help but think back to his wife from before.

A year later, he returned to his first wife, and she did not blame him at all. The next morning, he woke up and found that beside him was a black skeleton instead of his wife.

There was another young woman who was also quite beautiful and had blue eyes, long blue hair, and wore a light blue dress. She was called Aoandon.

The earliest legends were from the Edo period, but they all described her differently. She was a terrifying monster who had once been a Devil in hell and often walked in front of the gate to the Underworld. She liked to play a popular game called Hyakuonogatari Kaidankai.
