Crossover anime, a daily life that begins with hunting supernatural beings.

A flash of silver light, and he looked down at himself in disbelief, before the ruler of City H was beheaded.

The white-clad figure gradually collapsed and disappeared.

Only a head remained, lying on the ground.

Just like in life... she was beheaded.

"I never imagined that even after death I would be forced to leave behind such memories."

She muttered painfully to herself, as if she had only appeared with her head intact. For her, who had committed suicide by slitting her throat, Sakurai's blow wasn't fatal, but as expected...

It's still so painful.

completely...

Unbearable pain.

Two lines of bloody tears streamed down her face as she remained motionless, her expression contorted in rage.

"To be or not to be, the choice is yours."

Sakurai threw the white elephant doll on the ground and looked down at her.

It's true that the other party is a "supernatural entity" rather than a "spirit," but with this ability to infinitely create other individuals, one of hers is equivalent to the effect of hundreds or even more supernatural entities.

It's a perfect match for late-night snacks that require a lot of physical strength to withstand damage.

Sakurai would not disregard the safety of the late-night snacks because of his own personal thoughts.

More importantly, he was simply too lazy to look for any other supernatural phenomena for Xiao Yexiao.

Too much trouble.

Yes, that's exactly it. It's not the kind of thinking that a fisherman will never go home empty-handed.

It was simply Sakurai's deep concern for the student, Little Night Snack.

After a long silence, she gritted her teeth and silently transformed into black mist, flowing into the elephant doll.

With a disdainful scoff, Sakurai, unsurprised by her choice, picked up the elephant plush toy from the ground and prepared to leave.

Then he noticed that on the elephant doll, there seemed to be some kind of materialized vapor that had turned into a thin thread wrapped around it.

Following the line downwards, Sakurai finally found a long, narrow box in the lake.

When the box was opened, a withered, dried-out arm was placed inside.

The female spirit residing within the elephant doll appears as the box is opened.

Clenching her fists, she stared at Sakurai's severed arm with a ferocious expression.

The unscrupulous merchant said that a powerful spirit resides here.

But all we see here is this supernatural being with the ability to create infinite clones.

In addition, there are the things that have happened in this land in the past.

Could it be that...

Squinting slightly, Sakurai considered a possibility.

Anyway, just give it a try and you'll see. Even if you fail, it's just one less supernatural event.

As for the supernatural, if this one is gone, just catch another one.

Spirits are different; they are something that can only be encountered by chance.

If successful, then this trip will have been worthwhile.

Thinking this, Sakurai pulled out the Arakami Fang and swung it, severing the white line in the air.

The dark resentment on the female spirit's hideous face dissipated, and her grotesque expression became calm and blank.

At first glance, it looks as if a living person is standing here.

This figure, this appearance, bears a striking resemblance to that of Sergeant Kennyo.

really...

She is the spirit of H City. Is the reason she has gone mad because of this arm?

Sakurai instinctively wanted to take out his octagonal gleaming silver hammer and smash the arm, but...

Just as the hammer was about to fall, Sakurai hesitated for a moment and then temporarily abandoned the idea.

Perhaps the unscrupulous merchant knows something; it's best to show it to him first before making a decision.

With that thought in mind, Sakurai tucked his arm into his shoulder bag.

"Tell me, what exactly happened?"

Sakurai remained expressionless as he looked at the female spirit.

Even if there was a reason behind it, the fact that she killed someone is undeniable and cannot be erased with a simple "unintentional mistake".

Sakurai's personality is very rigid; he's one and he's two.

There is no such thing as being able to simply forgive and forget a mistake after a sudden repentance.

Even if it were true, it wouldn't hold true for Sakurai.

One thing at a time, those guys who put this arm in place and drove the female spirit mad should be crushed.

Female spirits who kill innocent people during their time as supernatural beings cannot be let off lightly.

As the saying goes, one may be spared the death penalty, but cannot escape punishment.

She must be punished as she deserves.

The female spirit looked at the expressionless Sakurai, then at her own hands, which were now stained with the blood of innocent people, and finally closed her eyes.

“Anger and hatred drove me mad.”

Recalling everything that had happened during this time, she unconsciously clenched her fists.

is it?

Just as I thought, it seems that everything this guy does is just to convey memories of the past of this city site.

Has her thinking been distorted because of the contamination of this arm?

It's quite interesting that it can twist powerful spirits into the supernatural.

This thing must be a cursed object, right? Can it drive spirits mad?

Its owner might be a rather outrageous individual.

But...

To place an arm in a place like this, you'd better pray I don't find out your identities, otherwise...

With a cold snort, suppressing his murderous intent and anger, Sakurai looked at her again.

Do I need to apologize to you?

"I've killed all your companions, haven't I?"

"Although there was a reason for it, I won't say anything stupid like it's all your fault that things turned out this way."

Shaking her head, the female spirit, now calm and no longer filled with resentment and malice, indicated that Sakurai was wrong.

"You killed me. My soul is torn apart. I hope people will not forget the gentle and pure people who once lived here."

So, it doesn't matter.

Looking up at the bright moon in the sky, the woman's eyes held a hint of sadness.

"is it?"

"In a way, you're really amazing."

"If it weren't for the contamination, we might actually get along very well."

Sakurai took a breath and, for the time being, expressed his respect.

"However, one thing is one thing, but it is also a fact that you killed someone during this period."

"From this moment forward, you are [arrested]."

"I need you to protect someone, is that alright?"

"As a [Guardian Spirit]."

"Not to be controlled as prisoners of war, but as atonement for those who bear sins."

"I was entrusted by the land administrator to handle your case, so as the person who arrested you, I have the right and qualification to make a judgment against you."

"Your hands are stained with the blood of innocent people; you must protect my students and the living as atonement."

"is that OK."

With a sigh of relief, Sakurai finally delivered his judgment on her.

The verdict is absolute and allows no objection or refusal.

"I understand. I will not forget that you killed me, but I will also not forget that you helped me."

"I will do as you say."

After leaving those words, she transformed into white light and surged into the elephant doll.

"In that case, the purpose of our trip has been successfully achieved."

"I have a feeling that the unscrupulous merchant might know something. I'll have to interrogate him thoroughly when I get back."

"Two powerful spirits in a row! Now I can go about my business with peace of mind."

"Should I say that this is truly me?"

With this thought in mind, Sakurai embarked on his journey home.

After taking one last look at the still clear lake, Sakurai returned the way he came.
