The search for Hoshino Nozomi
Last Updated:
2022-11-08 09:20:07Part 1: Her alias Hoshino Nozomi is an obvious made up pen name. If I wanted to be clever, I would've made more effort with her name. My naming logic is pretty straight forward. I deliberately chose her name like this because Hoshi "星" means star and no "野" means wilderness. Nozomi "望" means wish which altogether means a wish upon a star.

Back in the Forest of Fear, Everyone is sitting around the phone, expecting the call. Kazuha told them that she has found where Hoshino Nozomi lives, after some effort, and is going to meet her right now. "Isn't it weird?" said Xianliang. "About what?" replied Fukuna. "How did Cai Kang's favorite author managed to actually drop this hint exactly the way it did." There was a ring from the phone. This is what they are waiting for. All of them were called to listen to the phone call. “Hey guys, I found Hoshino Nozomi. She’s here with me.” Kazuha said on the other side. “Hello everyone, you know me as Hoshino Nozomi but my real name is Zhuyun.” She said cheerfully. They could all tell she is middle-aged. “You’re chinese?” Xianliang said surprisingly. “A xian?” “You can put it that way. I’ve lived in Japan since the Taisho period.” She said. “What?” the group was silent. “How old are you?” Cai Kang said. “I cannot say but I remember that I am older than a hundred.” She s

Everyone in the forest in fear trained hard and now they couldn't find any more answers that they are looking for. Their search has answered many questions; however, it led to more questions and they ran out of time. As for the stranger that Hoshino has warned them about disappeared practically into thin air. There was no way to find him. Even Kurai’s sharp sense of smell can only find a dead end. Back in school, the class is even more chatty as ever because there were rumors of a new teacher. Cai Kang sat at his desk. “I heard we’re getting a new English teacher. Why is that?” He asked. “I heard that Monoka-sensei quit since the fire incident. She only stayed enough to tie up loose ends before leaving for good,” Fukuna whispered. “But there’s something else. This new teacher is known for being a delinquent catcher. She’s already cracked down on three bad schools already and reformed them.” He said. “Gods, are we considered a bad school?” Cai Kang said. “Think of the things t

Cai Kang and Kurai are looking through many books and scrolls that Cai Kang has brought from China. Thanks to Kazuha’s advice, no one dared to even make a reckless move for the next two days. Karasuma still hasn’t learned his lesson though and gets his battle aura taken as well as beaten up at least once a day. He is currently sick and resting at home. It appears that getting his battle aura taken again and again has some effects. A few days later at Kurai’s apartment. Cai Kang showed his discovery to Kurai.“Chi blocking pressure points?” Kurai said and saw a chart.“It is accupressure to temporarily stop chi use. Since she uses an object that means she is not a chi user so if I press these then we can cut off her ability to snatch chi for at least the rest of the week. But I have to press all of these at the same time, meaning I need you to help me press these.” Cai Kang said and pointed to three pressure points on the bottom of her spine. “How did you figure it out?”“My old man h

He said."It is the Momijigari festival. It's like a leaf viewing festival. You didn't get to go to the summer festivals so you will join the others at the Fall festivals in the Inverse. You would be quite surprised to see when you get there." Noriko said while helping her put on her sash."I get everyone else but what about your sister?""She's not going.""Why? Everyone is going. Why is she not coming?""Since we were kids, she hated festivals and avoids public celebrations of all kinds especially since her potential unlocked. Not that I blame her, crowds of people are quite overwhelming." she said and stopped to let Cai Kang view herself in the mirror. "You li

A few weeks have passed. Cai Kang tried contacting the old man however, all communications were blocked. "Shit!" Cai Kang threw the locket. All paths to Shenmi were blocked and on top of that, so are communications."What's wrong?" He looked to see Kazuha at his door, wearing thick headphones. "I'm fine. Sorry." He apologized."No problem. That didn't cause any pain." She said."You're not gonna attend the sports festival, aren't you?" He said. "My hearing has gotten even more stronger and its range has gone up so it might take another day for the new hearing aids to arrive." She said."Hmph""Now what's got you moping?""I have been trying to contact the old man for a while now and he's not answering. Whatever is going on in Shenmi must be pretty bad if they have blocked the entry for this long so I'm trying to get some answers.""I have been suspicious too.

Kazuha has the Swan mirror in her hand as a last-ditch effort in case the plan goes awry. She takes every weapon she could keep in her person, her katana at her back, kunai knives and daggers attached to her leg and inside her jacket. Kazuha then gave the mirror to Chiemi.“This is?”It is a small red hand mirror with a singular embroidered wing on the back.“The Swan mirror. It is a teleportation mirror that my father gave me. Use it as a last resort.” Kazuha said. Chiemi nodded and gripped Kazuha’s hand.“Please be careful. All of you.”Kazuha then sits down to think of the previous conversation over a year ago.*“This illness is not normal. It is due to some kind of energy inside of them.” Rikuto said.“Energy? Don’t tell me, Is Maiko unlocking her hidden potential?” Chiemi asked.“If it is because of her hidden potential then that would make sense but is it?” Uesaka said looking at Kazuha.“It depends on the scenario and timing. I don’t think that is it.” Kazuha said while touchi

Maiko looked at the sky with a solemn look. “I had a dream. A sweet one. I know what to do now.” She said.“What should we do?”“I do my job.”“Wait, Maiko. You can’t.” Kazuha was now fully conscious and heard the whole thing despite being weak and heavily injured. “I can’t lose you too. We did all this so you can still live as a human.” Kazuha attempted to yell.Maiko’s eyes lightened up seeing her friend awake and grabbed her hand. Everyone else is injured and the remaining ones are also concerned.“I know. Leaving you guys is the hardest choice that I had to make. I never thought I would make such good friends. I lived a good life and now I wish you all the same. I will erase the memories of everyone except you guys so that you will not be implicated. I know you will be sad but I will always be where you are.”She then whispered in Kazuha's ears leaving her surprised. "Follow this and you will begin a new way."*(Back in the building)“None of that matters without you.” Chiemi said

He watched from a distance as the cannons behind him fire. Everyone who can fly join him in the skies while those stuck on the ground and water remain there.Cai Kang feels like he's on fire. He is feeling the most out of this. The thrill, the excitement, the need to cry for blood, it's exhilarating. He told everyone to stand back. He volunteered on this part of the island because it is their weakest point. Looking forward, there are too many demons for him to see if Lufen is there. As much as he enjoys a good massacre, he would rather get it over with and join the others. This is the perfect opportunity try something first. He stared at Kazuha who is feeling the water below her. She is powerful but no one else has sensory abilities like her so she is delegated to staying behind and not on the front lines. That's good.

Curse of the Four Dragons The Appearance of the White Dragon
Cai Kang was looking around, realizing he is in front of the Furukawa pharmacy. It was dark out with barely any light. He has no trouble seeing in the dark yet he has a foreboding feeling as he heard something in the distance; the sound of crying. He slowly head towards there to see Kazuha, on her knees and in tears. Her hair appears to be a bit longer in length. She is in the arms of another boy he doesn't recognize who attempts to comfort her and hum a song which got her to stop for a bit and take it in. The boy has his hair in a short ponytail and has dark eyes. He seems to be intimate with her as she didn't push him away. He appears to have the same pained expression. Cai Kang can't even feel jealous right now. Whatever they are going through, it must especially hurt if she cries like this. He has seen her cry before not appearing this vulnerable.Then the two looked up to see Cai Kang. Their faces grimaced upon seeing him. Taken aback, he then looked around to see a mysterious fi

Kazuha drank the tea and is surprised by the taste and covered her mouth in surprise. "Wow, you're right. This is really good." she puts down the cup. "So this is what the legendary tea of the gods taste like. I never thought I would ever try this.""No kidding." Nuying said while stuffing her mouth with a pastry. "If I were you, I would've hoard it all. You don't seem like the type to share." she said.Kurai smirked with pride. "Well, we are all gonna need it. You might as well try something good before we all die." he joked but the girls didn't find that funny."Sorry," he quickly apologized."I'm surprised you invited me. You and I don't exactly have had a casual conversation in a while." Kazuha said while taking a sip."Actually there is something I need to talk to you about. I met the benefactor." he said."Really? Who does he look like?""Just some british explorer who looks like he's from Tarzan.""Tarzan?" Nuying bemused."British explorer?" Kazuha repeated."It's just a disgui

Both Kurai and Cai Kang are unsure on what to make of this. The girl on the other hand is quite enthusiastic."You called her Run'er. I thought she has no name." Cai Kang said, hesitantly sitting on his seat. What is with this Alice tea party nonsense? he thought."That is her name, of course.""I thought Ignorance aren't allowed to have one." Kurai said with suspicious eyes."They are not allowed to have mortal names every time they reincarnate." the figure said pouring tea and handed the cups to them. "That doesn't mean she doesn't need to be referred to the name of her first life even when she's only half a soul."The girl ate and sipped her tea with surprisingly good manners."She's not scared of me at all." Kurai noted while stuffing his mouth."I had to temporarily erase her fear of you when we're in here. Besides it is a dream, she is well mannered in her dreams than in real life." then he stopped for a brief moment before talking, "We're supposed to meet Avoidance as well but i

Cai Kang said.Kurai shrugged. "I heard worse. The worst thing I could hear is that my mom is dead.""And if she's not?"Kurai is mentally unsure and his expressions do not escape Cai Kang."I don't know." he admits before finding the others. They are all training in the courtyard. Upon noticing them, they stopped. "That went on longer than expected." Xianliang said before smirking. "The locals said that you two became quite strong.

Curse of the Four Dragons Deeper into the hole
Cai Kang was meditating. He has been training his newfound abilities but he is now focusing on unlocking the seventh chakra point. Unlike the past ones, this one requires something from him. It is to rid himself of earthly desires and gain spiritual harmony. It is also an out of body experience. It isn't something he needs to rid himself of but rather pure sincerity.It takes a while for a normal person to unlock all seven because the last one is the hardest. But after some thought, he realized that with his soul and his past lives, his status as the Black Dragon as well as the an impending crisis, how much sincerity would he need? He has heard stories of those who unlock their full power during battle, maybe the same thing might happen to him but it's better safer than sorry to at least try.He felt his own chi reaching the seventh point and his mind went blank for a moment before opening them to Qinghai's Black Mountain. He heard crying and saw a man and a woman holding their babies

It is Kutsu not Kizu." His instructor said patiently. "You say Kutsu first then Kizu."Kurai is frustrated as the mantra has already made him profusely sweat. He grabbed a towel to dry himself then notice the smell of people outside. Curious, he walk to a sliding door to take a peek and notice a mob of people watching him with excitement especially the girls."Do you wish to go over it again?"
