Inu no Vember 8th

Story written by Jaken, Hiroyuki

The greatest demon Nue

(A story of how InuYasha’s parents met [3])

[Inu no Taisho happened to go to Heian-kyo (now Kyoto)and to be attracted by a lady’s scent and beauty and became sick and suffered. Myoga sent two poems to the lady, following the then custom and no reply came to them. Finally Inu no Taisho wrote a poem after suffering for three days and sent it to her. Then her reply came.]

Myoga “My lord!! How is her poem? Does she accept your love?”

Inu no Taisho “Wait....

白雪の Shirayuki no

清き流れに Kiyoki nagare ni

誰そ流れぬや Ta so nagare nu ya

十六夜 Izayoi

Like white snow

Who can’t be attracted

By the pure stream?

Izayoi”

Myoga “Wow!! Your love is fulfilled!! She is literally attracted by your pure love!! She writes her name on her letter. How did you write your poem?”

“I wrote

悩みおり Nayami ori

夢かうつつか Yume ka ututu ka

君なかりせば Kimi nakariseba

犬の大将 Inu no Taisho

I’m sick and suffering

Even in the dream and real world

I wish I hadn’t met you

Inu no Taisho”

“My lord, this is great! Your sincere feeling melted her heart.”

“This time, I’ll go alone.”

“No, my lord, I worry about one thing.”

“Worry about one thing?”

“Yes, don’t you know Nue?”

“Nue? I have heard of it. I know Nue is a demon made up of many animals, isn’t it?”

“Right. He is a ruler of the invisible and dark human society. He is a very old demon, way older than you. His head is monkey, body is raccoon dog, limbs are tiger and tail is snake. He is a fearful demon. When you land on Heian-kyo (Kyoto), if he feels your existence, he’ll surely challenge you.

“Keh!! He is nothing to me.”

“Don’t underestimate him. He is also created by humans’ negative feelings as well. Anger, complaints, sorrow, grudges and so on. I hear the humans’ capital actually started with these negative feelings. And his favorite tactics are psychological ones, nor physical ones. I’m afraid you aren’t used to them. So this time, I propose you invite her to here.”

“She’ll never come here. I shall go.”

“My lord, at least, I’ll give you a help.”

“I see. Let’s go.”

Next time “Spirit swords can’t cut.”

Heya, your blog is L.I.F.E. I absolutely adore your inukag gifsets/posts! I especially love how you tie together similar scenes/thematic motifs from throughout the series all into a nice little package - makes my fangirl heart melt. Honestly, I reckon these type posts are what keeps the fandom alive and are also what inspires my headcannons/post-series daydreams. I'm sure a lot of effort goes into thinking about and puting it all together (for no other reason than 'I love this series') so thanks

THIS is legit in my top 10 best asks ever received THANK YOU ANON this honestly made my day T______________T

Sick Inu no Taisho

(A story of how InuYasha’s parents met)

The 11th century Kyoto, then called Heian-kyo, was very peaceful.

Heian-kyo was founded in 794CE. The ruling family was powerful and the government was stable without any war, rebellion and invasion for more than 200 years. Human emperors and aristocrats were rich and ordinary folks in the whole country could enjoy peaceful lives.

A demon lord named Inu no Taisho lived in the western part of Japan. He was powerful and actually invincible and no one challenged him so he could also have an unusual peaceful life.

He happened to hear humans’ capital was colorful and beautiful. He decided to try seeing it.

He flew to Heian-kyo and found a palace-like building. It was the biggest building around there. From one of the gates emerged a procession. In its middle, a vehicle led by a cow was surrounded and protected by many servants and samurai.

He thought “Humans are always weak and these guards are nothing to me.”

Then a scent came to him. “Huh? A scent I have never smelled. What is that? This scent is subtle and unknown but so sweet and so noble.” He looked inside the vehicle through the window. He found a woman and stared at the left side of her face. She was beautiful, soft and gentle.

The procession was so slow.

He continuously stared at her.

The procession and the vehicle entered a mansion.

When she was gone, he felt himself somewhat relieved. He couldn’t understand why. He looked around the capital and felt disappointed because it was too small for him. He felt a little tired and decided to go back home.

At that night, when he tried to sleep, he felt uneasy. When he closed his eyes, that woman he met in Heian-kyo always appeared to him and he could feel her scent clearly even then. This was the first time he couldn’t have any sleep all the night.

The dawn broke.

He got up and went out. The sunshine was so bright. He couldn’t open his eyes. The woman appeared again inside his eyes. He sighed and sighed deeply once again.

Myoga suddenly talked to him, “What happened to you, my lord? You look pale.”

“I look pale? The demon lord looks pale?”

“Yes. You look rather poisoned. What happened to you? You aren’t what you were.”

He talked to Myoga about what happened the previous day.

“My lord, it’s called koi wazurai, literally the disease of love.”

“The disease of love? Me?”

“Yes, my lord. It’s said to be deadly. Human emperors and aristocrats suffer and some have died from it.

“Died? Have they died from it?”

“Yes. I hear there is the only solution.”

(To be continued)

The next time “A poor poet and a good poem”
