>"Any human can become a youkai given the right circumstances." says Yukari, "However, the process is irreversible. And you need to be cautious about where you do it..."
>"Why doesn't she just visit her friend's ghost?" Yuyuko asks, "That's what you've always done for me after I died..."
>"Well... There is that option as well..." You think you see a hint of sadness in Yukari's eyes for a second, "Anyway, there are other known ways to extend one's lifespan. Though it's up to the two of you whether or not to pursue them..."

>"Hmm..." Renko seems to be thinking.

>Her friend's ghost ?
>You wonder if Yukari knew Yuyuko in life as well...

>"Lady Yukari, does the process to become a youkai involve harming others ? And what about those other ways ?"
>"It depends on the type of youkai you desire to become. You wouldn't need to harm anyone if you wished to become a magician or jinyou, though I would exercise caution with the latter though, Reimu has almost zero tolerance of Jinyou, and becoming one is considered taboo... Of course, for something like a vampire, you would need to feed on humans constantly... As for the other methods, there is always the option of becoming a hermit or celestial, or eating peaches grown in heaven. A prolonged stay in a pure land will also stop aging, though that would mean you'd have to spend most of your time there. You could also have Renko become a god, but that would take quite a bit of work..."
>She pauses, "I also do believe Eirin Yagokoro created an elixir of immortality on at least two separate occasions. Though I doubt she would give you one... And if Renko were to consume that, it would be likely that she would outlive you, as opposed to the other way around..."

>"And what do you mean only i can become your kind of youkai ? How different are you from others besides your abilities ?"
>"I became a youkai of boundaries the moment my powers matured. Should you decide to become a youkai, you will also become a youkai of boundaries due to having the same abilities as me. As Renko lacks the ability, she can never become the kind of youkai you would become."

>"How free would I be to return to the outside world if I became a magician?"

>You refrain from saying this.

>"And what about you Renko? Are you okay with becoming a youkai? I don't want to force you into something you don't want to do."
>Renko thinks for a moment before nodding. "I'm okay with it, since it means I can keep being with you. But do I have to become a youkai though? I mean, Miss Yukari gave some alternative ways to extend my life too..."

>"It is said that a diet of heavenly peaches can extend the human lifespan by thousands of years. Of course, I doubt the celestials would just give them to you... As for a pure land, a prolonged stay in one over several years will , there are several options... Though several are off limits for a good reason. Namely Higan and the Lunar Capital... Heaven might be an option, though you would also find the peaches there, as well as live there anyway should you decide to have Renko become a celestial rather than a hermit... There's also here in the netherworld, if you don't mind living near ghosts and being technically dead for a few years or more..."

>"But whichever one you'd prefer the most Renko, I'll try to help you achieve it."
>"I know you will." Renko smiles, "I think I'll need more time to think about which way to go, though..."
