If Sakurai and Yotsuya Miko hadn't intervened yesterday, he couldn't believe what the consequences would have been for his family.

Not to mention...

That kind of thing happened last night.

Just thinking about that "thing" they encountered on the street after leaving the police station last night...

Baoyue's father was filled with lingering fear.

If it weren't for the gift this young man gave to his daughter, their family might already be gone.

So, they've been rescued twice now.

I must properly express my gratitude to my savior. With this in mind, Baoyue's father asked for leave from work today and immediately invited Sakurai out.

"It's nothing, I just did what I wanted to do."

"Compared to this, how about it? Was it protected?"

“Important family members.”

Sakurai crouched down and softly asked about Hozuki Yasui, who had been acting strangely ever since she met him.

"Hmm, good job!"

Bao Yue gave a strong thumbs-up, her skull-like eyes sparkling.

Last night, on her way home, she cleverly used the gift Sakurai had given her to smash that dark thing.

"is it?"

"Well done."

"That's amazing! You protected your important family members."

Sakurai ruffled Baoyue's hair and offered her a compliment.

"Um, if you don't mind, please sit down first."

She nudged her husband, who seemed a little embarrassed and unsure of what to say. Receiving no response, Bao Yue's mother smiled and tried to smooth things over.

"it is good."

“Sakurai, Sakurai Eito, just call me Sakurai.”

After thinking it over, Sakurai followed his heart and went around behind the Takarazuki Night Snack Shop.

With both hands around her waist, Sakurai lifted up Takarazuki, who was muttering under her breath about how strange the name was, and gestured for her to lead the way.

The little radish head flapped her short legs a few times and struggled for a while, but unable to escape from Sakurai's grasp, she finally gave up and obediently led the way for Sakurai.

After that, the four of them went to a private room.

The four Sakurai sat down in order, with Baoyue and her husband sitting together, while Xiao Yexiao, who was fidgeting restlessly, sat next to Sakurai.

"Thank you again, Sakurai-kun, for saving my life. Otherwise, I don't know what I would have done."

Considering Sakurai's underage status, Baoyue's father did not drink alcohol, but instead raised a glass of juice and drank it all in one gulp.

"It seems you encountered something quite interesting last night. Would you mind telling me about it?"

Sakurai, sensing something from the other person's expression, asked softly.

Then he pressed down on Bao Yue Ye Xiao's head, which was sitting on his lap, signaling her to behave.

For some reason, this child was being overly affectionate towards me. Even though I had placed her aside, she secretly climbed onto my lap when I wasn't looking.

That's quite outrageous.

"Hey hey hey."

Sakurai, who disliked Yexiao, raised her right hand and shook it twice, trying to get away with being cute.

After exchanging a glance, Baoyue's father finally spoke.

"Last night..."

"We were attacked by [ghosts]."

Through Baoyue's father's description, Sakurai learned what had happened.

It was roughly after the family accompanied the driver to the Metropolitan Police Department for questioning that they were attacked by the "hanging ghost" on their way home.

Um...

It's the same kind of supernatural event that Sakurai first encountered.

So, it's fair to say that this family and Sakurai are almost too closely connected.

In short, the result was that they were almost killed.

Baoyue used a crowbar stained with Sakurai's blood to protect her family.

"Really?"

"It's pretty much what I expected."

Sakurai had already anticipated this after noticing the existence of [Void] yesterday.

This family has something very special about them.

Considering Konggong's purpose, was she the one being targeted?

Sakurai glanced at Baoyue's mother, who was silently sipping her juice.

"Mr. Sakurai, can you help us?"

"We will also pay the commission and other fees."

As a socially savvy individual with high emotional intelligence, Baoyue's father did not look down on Sakurai because of his age, but instead immediately placed Sakurai in a position even higher than his own.

Completely helpless against supernatural forces, he earnestly and sincerely sought Sakurai's help.

Without agreeing or refusing, Sakurai picked up a glass of juice and handed it to Xiaoyexiao, then began to talk about the [true identity] of the guy who had his eye on this family.

"The one who is eyeing your family, or more precisely, your wife, is [God]."

Have you heard of it?

"The story of the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons".

"The dawn that appears at the end of the 'Night Parade of One Hundred Demons' scroll, the void in the gap of the day, as the black sphere revealed by the sun."

"That is, the sun that appears at the end of the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, burning all the demons to ashes."

"It is He who has his eye on your family."

"The indescribable [deity] called Void, an extreme yin entity that appears as a dark sun."

“If I’m not mistaken, He wants to be born, and you are the chosen mother.”

Looking at Baoyue's mother, who was pointing at her face with a somewhat unpleasant expression, Sakurai said softly.

"I'm not entirely confident in dealing with a guy like that."

Sakurai did not become complacent because he had successfully defeated two gods, just as he approached each hunt with the same attitude of giving his all.

He never underestimated his enemies.

Sakurai, being self-aware, understood that he was not yet fully confident in getting involved in this mess.

Immortality and the ability to foresee the future are utterly meaningless when the gap between the two sides is large enough.

The difference between him and Kongwang now lies in numerical values.

This is a gap that can never be bridged no matter how many times you are resurrected.

Sakurai was prepared for this.

It is necessary to develop long-range combat capabilities.

Fortunately, he already has a clue about this.

37. Dominate the supernatural, little midnight snack, become the Ghost Pokémon Master!

"Sorry, we were rude."

"We'll find another way."

Upon hearing this, the light of hope in Baoyue's father's eyes vanished. He knew himself that he had indeed been indulging in unrealistic fantasies.

Why should someone with no family or kinship risk their life for your family?

He was unaware of the level of terror that "Void Death" represented.

But the mere mention of the word "god" was enough to fill him with despair. How could his family have been so deserving of being targeted by an existence of such a high level?

In this situation, he simply couldn't bring himself to ask Sakurai for help.

However, it's absolutely impossible for him to give up like this.

For my important family, for my beloved wife, and for my lovely children.

No matter how difficult it is, he will not give up.

I will definitely find a way to protect my family.

"You won't find a solution."

“In this day and age, there may be powerful beings who can deal with the Void, but given your circumstances, you absolutely cannot afford that price.”

Sakurai's resolute words shattered the already faint hope of Baoyue's father.

Anger surged within him, and Bao Yue's father, who was about to stand up with his fists clenched involuntarily, felt his wife holding his hand the whole time. After a moment's hesitation, he loosened his fists.

Even so, I will never give up.

Bao Yue's father managed a weak smile, took his wife's hand, and made up his mind that no matter what...

No matter what, he will find a way to protect his lover, the mother of his child.

Standing up, taking out the prepared thank-you gift, and handing it to Sakurai, Baoyue's father prepared to take his leave.

Faced with a threat that could appear at any time, he simply didn't have the extra energy to waste here.

Unlike Baoyue's father, Baoyue's mother was unaware that her life was threatened from the beginning. She drank her juice while smiling at Sakurai and her daughter.
