Chapter 91

**The Wise Man's True Identity** (賢者の正体, *Kenja no Shōtai*, ***The Wise Man's True Identity***?) is the 91st chapter of the *To Your Eternity* manga.

## Summary

The townspeople of Renril notice that the recreated objects Fushi created seem to be "sticking" to each other. They ask Bonchien what's with the "white film" covering everything and Bonchien assures then it's nothing to worry about.

Bonchien and Kai head somewhere private and Bonchien tells him that the "white film" is a problem. Kai speculates that it's because they made Fushi work in such a rush. Bonchien asks Kai where Fushi is and Kai says he started on work without them. Kai notes that Fushi is building at such a fast rate and Bonchien worries that the city's interest in the "wise man" is growing so they have to be careful as to not get caught.

While Fushi heads to the next tarp to work, he senses someone's pain nearby. He tries to ignore it since he constantly feels sensations from people because his senses have expanded across the city. But he suddenly feels an intense pain and rushes to the source.

Fushi, as Booze Man, finds a woman collapsed inside her house. Some items on a shelf are about to fall onto her and Fushi, transforming quickly into Sandel, lunges over her to protect her. The woman thanks Fushi and he notices her arm is bleeding. He gives her some pain medicine and tells her to seek a doctor. The woman's daughter then returns home and Fushi takes his leave as they thank him.

Fushi feels another intense pain nearby and runs to the source. He finds a man with his foot crushed by a brick. Fushi quickly saves the man; and then another and another, even rescuing a cat stuck in a tree.

Fushi sits by himself and realizes that the sensations increase each time he builds a house. He thinks that he can't possibly save everyone. Suddenly there's a sensation he doesn't recognize and wonders what it is. He wonders if the constant storm of senses will go on forever. Iddy approaches him and he tells her nothing is wrong. He thinks to himself that he can't be tired because everyone else, like Iddy, are doing their best. Fushi gets up and starts heading back to work. Unbeknownst to him, Cam has been secretly watching.

Bonchien and Kai spot Fushi walking and inform him that after twelve more buildings, he'll be half-finished. Fushi comments that they have to rebuild the ramparts soon too and Bonchien informs him that they've already begun tearing it down. Fushi says he can't believe the Princess permitted it and Bonchien tells him that Messar is playing more games against the Princess to win more favors for them. Fushi says that they can't hide the walls like they did with the houses under the tarps. Bonchien tells him he hopes to take advantage of the festival nights to rebuild them.

Meanwhile, Messar and Princess Alma finish up their game, with Messar losing. Messar asks Alma if she could make the upcoming Founding Festival a whole week instead of three days. Messar says he wants the troops to get some rest instead of guarding the wall the whole time, but Alma sees through it. She realizes that they want to build the wall while the guards are away to protect the "wise man's" identity, then she asks him to tell her the truth of who he really is. Messar laughs and says he'll tell her when they finish rebuilding all of Renril.

The week of the Founding Festival come and Fushi works on rebuilding the walls as the town is distracted with the festival. While overlooking the festival, Fushi thinks that in two months time the city will become a battle field.

The next day, civilians are amused by the appearance of the new wall. Cam finds Fushi working on a house and he begs Fushi to come with him for just ten minutes. Fushi agrees as long as Bonchien and the others don't spot them.

Cam takes Fushi to watch him participate in the Founding Festival's martial arts tournament. An announcer announces Cam, the Wild Boar Piglet of Renril, will fight Fushi, disguised as Nand, the Master of Katsuyama Kenpo. The match begins and Cam quickly lunges and stabs Fushi in the shoulder. Fushi dramatically reacts in pain and falls to the ground as the crowd cheers. Cam looks up to a girl with a ponytail (Yuiss; the daughter of the woman from earlier in the chapter) in the crowd and smiles at her.

Outside the arena, a civilian notices a rope going around the arena and starts to move it thinking that someone might trip on it. Fushi, still in the middle of the match, quickly transfer his consciousness to the rope and pops out as the Booze Man, then yells at the civilian to not touch the rope. Fushi sighs as his connection was almost severed.

Inside the arena, people gather wondering why Fushi, as Nand, is unconscious on the ground. A man slaps Fushi on the cheek, accidentally cutting him, and Fushi comes to. Fushi quickly gets up and tells Cam the fight was good and says he's gotta get going. The crowd tells Fushi to wait as they're concerned about the cut on his cheek. Fushi, puzzled, wipes his cheek and the cut heals instantly to the shock of the crowd. He looks down at his hand and sees blood smeared on it. Fushi quickly runs off saying it's nothing. He panics and wonders if they saw him heal his cut. He hopes not since he doesn't want to be captured again like with the Church of Bennett.

At dinner, the Renril troop discusses what they saw today. They speculate about the Immortal that the Church of Bennett was so worked up about. A girl (Sera) remembers that the Immortal was called "Fushi" and Cam quickly tries to throw them off by saying the Church made it all up. A man suggests they go check out the person reconstructing all the buildings as only they could be "Fushi." Bonchien tries to block them from exiting the dining hall but the man pushes him aside saying it's their town and they can go wherever they'd like.

The troop looks in the distance to the wall and sees it rise from the ground right before their eyes. Completely exhausted, Fushi looks over and sees that they've found out his true identity but brushes it off saying he's gotta work on the next well. Fushi then quickly hurls over as he thinks he's got to save everyone.
