Journey to the West: Demon Chapter Page #5

I'll ask you once again.

You don't want her?

-I don't.

-You must be kidding!

Such a charming girl!

Why don't you want her? You're weird!

Minister, please arrange this right away.

I want the girl cleaned up

and sent to my chambers.

As soon as possible.

Your Majesty....

We'll take our leave now.

Attendants, see them out.

Help them with the fish too.

Come with me.

When you've suffered pain...

...you know the pain

of all sentient beings.

When you've insisted...

...you know how to let go.

When you've cared for others,

you know how to move on.

That's what spiritual attainment

is all about.

But me...

...I'm just an ordinary man.

Your Majesty....

Your Majesty, the master is back again.

Master, you have broken your journey.

What trouble did you encounter?

I've been pondering,

I don't think I should reject...

...Your Majesty's great generosity.

Please allow Felicity to join me

on my journey.

You can do that, right?

I can, but....

-But what?

-Last night, I had my way with Felicity.

Tell you what, choose someone else.

Master...

...I sympathize,

but there's nothing I can do.

You mean.... But I don't mind.

Your Majesty has favored Felicity.

-That makes me all the more honored.

-You don't mind?

Definitely not.

You don't mind...

...but I mind.

The fact of the matter is...

...Felicity resisted him last night.

She refuses to be a concubine.

She says she'd rather die

than be forced into it.

-Then yes.

-I lied to you!

So what?

Yesterday I asked you eight times...

...and eight times you refused.

Now you come back

and change your mind.

How reckless!

Don't get worked up.

-Put down the drum.

-All the women in the harem...

...look like they've been struck

by lightning.

But this one is good-looking.

You won't grant me this one morsel?

-That's right.

-You bastard!

Now that Master has made up his mind...

...and Felicity refuses to be a concubine,

let's move towards a happy ending.

Attendants, fetch Felicity.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

I don't agree to this.

My Felicity....

Master, drink some water.

-You first.

-You're so kind.

Monkey, what are you doing?

Taking a leak!

In front of a girl?

What's gotten into you?

Go over there!

-Felicity....

-Master, come with me.

-I don't need to go.

-What?

Yes, you do! Come.

One moment, I'll be right back.

-My dear....

-Who are you?

I'm Second Brother.

Isn't my true face

completely irresistible?

Sometimes when I look in the mirror,

my beauty stuns me.

Second Brother,

Brother Monkey is watching you.

You're a naughty one, aren't you?

But I won't let you cheat me.

Extreme!

Mistress, go get a whip.

Lash me, correct me...

...insult me, beat me, punish me.

You're laughing at me.

You're coughing, Third Brother,

drink some water.

What's blocking your nose?

That's more comfortable!

So you get back human form

when you sneeze.

You should've said so,

it's hard work pulling you.

Master, even if you don't want to pee,

try to pee just a little.

Make a puddle to look

at your reflection.

I'm handsome, does that bother you?

I've been bothered about you

for a couple of days.

You don't even have hair.

Felicity is quite good-looking.

Why did she pass up being a queen

to follow you instead?

What's on your mind?

She's actually a demon,

she plans to eat you.

-Don't do that!

-Sorry.

Why didn't you tell me this earlier?

There are many kinds of demons.

Some are easy to spot...

...others aren't.

So you have no proof.

It's not hard to check.

You've let her looks blind you.

Get on her case.

Do I have to tell you how?

Aren't you a professional demon-hunter?

-What are you looking for?

-A mirror.

I have one.

It sends out light.

What a shining bronze mirror!

-Doesn't it work?

-It's fine.

Bad monkey, have you finished?

Don't mind him,

I'll help comb your hair.

Monkey, what are you doing?

A demon's blood

will vaporize on the mirror.

That's impossible! Nothing happened.

-Shut it, demon-hunter!

-So she's not a demon.

-Where are you from?

-I'm from Rivermouth Village.

Rivermouth Village.

It's on the other side of that hill.

I've never known a demon

with a family.

-I dare you to take me there.

-I'll go!

Rivermouth Village

Felicity, it's so long

since you visited us.

Ma, I'm following a monk west

to find sutras.

See how nice her family is?

You'd better apologize to them now.

Apologize? Dream on!

Dad!

Demon girl, you hired

a big supporting cast.

No expense spared.

I don't know

what the misunderstanding is...

...but please let my mother go.

Spare the lives of my family.

Don't be rash! Let her go.

Master likes this young woman,

but he still loves you too.

Don't be jealous.

Jealous?

Will you shut up?

Hurry!

How many times must I tell you?

This woman is really a demon.

They're in league to do you harm.

They're a family, three generations!

And you keep slandering them!

You're the one doing harm.

You're the demon!

So you believe her rather than me?

-Yes.

-Fine.

Then I'll kill her!

How dare you smite me as a demon?

All the women I like, such as Miss Duan

before her, you want to kill them all?

He finally said it.

So you haven't forgotten.

Of course I remember.

I'll always remember.

The way you beat her.

Beat her to death!

I thought you were really treating me

as a brother.

Brother?

Since I'm stuck with a mad killer like you,

day in, day out...

...I have to pretend

to get along with you!

If you died 10 times, it wouldn't be enough.

I wish you'd go to hell, be damned forever!

I see.

If you're not my friend in this world...

...you're my enemy.

We've been enemies all along.

Get out!

Go away as far as possible,

while I'm in a good mood.

So you're in a good mood?

Listen, all of you....

All the demon-killing on this journey...

...I did it for him.

My constant headaches,

the lash scars all over my body...

...that's all his doing.

Whatever I owed him...

...I've repaid it in full.

Whatever he owes me,

no need to repay.

From now on,

our master-disciple bond...

...is at an end!

-Brother Monkey!

-Let him go.

Dad.

How's your family?

They're recovering, they'll be fine.

Please don't blame yourself.

Who's Miss Duan?

Miss Duan was also a demon-hunter.

We faced

life-or-death struggles together.

I loved her a lot...

...but I dared not admit it.

Until the day

I saw Monkey destroying her.

And then it was too late.

I let her down.

And if you meet someone else you like...

...will you let her down again?

I never wanted too much from life.

Just find the right man...

-...get married, have a baby....

-Have a baby...

...settle down.

I've found that man.

It's you.

Master, it's a crisis!

Brother Monkey has gone mad.

He killed everyone in sight,

we couldn't stop him!

Pigsy, Sandy,

see if anyone can be saved.

Ma! Dad!

Dad! Ma!

You can smile after killing so many?

You're possessed by the devil!

Those I killed were all demons.

You don't believe anything I say.
