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

So...

What difference is there?

The moment when someone else's life ends may be magnificent, but the moment when one's own life ends is just as spectacular.

But...

It's so frustrating. I finally found someone important, but now I can only watch helplessly as I lose her again.

So unwilling, filled with resentment and regret, Ke Mingyu also collapsed to the ground.

85. Strong emotions possess power.

"Damn it..."

"Why, why can't we get out?"

"Are you tied up?"

"We finally found a way back, how can we let ourselves be stuck here?"

He tried every window and door, but no matter what he did, Tetsushi Mochida couldn't leave the room.

what to do...

Biting his lip, he kept pulling on the sliding door made of wood and glass.

It was as immovable as a mountain, without even the slightest tremor.

It's as if this door was connected from the very beginning.

No matter how unwilling he was, there was nothing he could do. Mochida Tetsushi knew that this was definitely a supernatural force.

This is him...

As an ordinary person, he couldn't defeat this being even if he tried his best.

Just as humans can never fight against natural disasters on their own, how much worse is this school compared to a natural disaster for him?

Ultimately, when comparing an ant to an elephant or a lion, isn't the difference in size so vast that it's negligible?

"Damn it, there's definitely a way. Wait for me, Yuka, everyone."

"I will definitely find a way to get out."

Having finally found a way home, how could he possibly give up here?

If Yuka gives up on survival so easily, what will happen to her? What will happen to everyone else?

Clenching his fist, unwilling to give up, Mochida Tetsushi heard a sound like a bell coming from behind him.

Instinctively, I turned around and saw a girl wearing a maroon skirt and a seven-star headdress standing there with her arms crossed.

She was expressionless, as if she was thinking about something. Her attention wasn't even fully on Mochida Tetsushi; she only glanced at him out of the corner of her eye, noticing his presence.

Tetsushi Mochida had a feeling that she didn't actually take him seriously at all.

Instead, it's about seeing someone else through oneself.

"The pain felt because of worrying about the feelings of those you cherish."

"Beautiful stigmata that can be equally obtained by both the living and the dead."

With her head slightly lowered, she uttered some cryptic words.

He looks like the kind of guy who's been playing the role of a riddle teller for years.

"who are you?"

Having already realized that ghosts existed here, Mochida Tetsushi wasn't startled. With this confusion in mind, he said softly.

"I... am a ghost who died here."

The girl slightly raised her head, her eyes seemingly filled with a sense of loneliness and sadness.

"Yeah?"

Contrary to what Morishige said, it seems that this ghost has no intention of attacking me.

Is it a kind ghost like Sachiko?

Judging from the information in that newspaper, Sachiko, who was with them not long ago, should also be a ghost.

This might explain why a door appeared where he clearly remembered it as a wall.

Think of this.

Mochida Tetsushi, who had been somewhat worried, lowered his guard a little.

And I trusted the girl a little more.

"Misfortune and fortune are often intertwined; happiness that is forced is always accompanied by corresponding risks."

As the girl said this, Tetsushi Mochida blinked, sensing that the other person wanted to take this opportunity to tell him something.

He didn't understand.

"The reason you are trapped in this school is because Sachiko's spell failed."

The girl's tone was very calm as she looked at Mochida Tetsushi, but it stirred up a storm in Mochida Tetsushi's heart.

ceremony...

Did it actually fail?

"Someone recited it too many times or too few times; the number of recitations didn't match the number of people; [a certain person]..."

She emphasized the name of someone, and the girl looked up, her deep blue eyes behind her glasses reflecting Tetsushi Mochida's surprised expression.

"That's impossible! I definitely read it eleven times!"

Clenching his fists, Tetsushi Mochida's eyes widened as a surge of inexplicable anger welled up within him.

"You may not have mispronounced it, but what about your friends who are with you?"

"Among your friends, perhaps some silently recited it because they found it troublesome, or perhaps they deliberately failed because they wanted to have more fun and didn't want it to end so simply?"

"Even if it wasn't intentional, people with a carefree personality might think that way..."

Well... whatever, it's not going to get discovered anyway.

"But they had no idea things would develop to such a terrible point."

As if experiencing it firsthand, the girl put herself in Mochida Tetsushi's shoes and imagined many possibilities.

"You'd better stop now!!!"

Even with his good temper, Mochida Tetsushi couldn't tolerate the girl's repeated provocations.

He lowered his voice and angrily rebuked the girl.

Even if there is no malice, even if it is a ghost, it is not a reason to come and slander your friend.

"Sorry, sorry, maybe it's an occupational hazard, I couldn't help but come up with all sorts of hypothetical possibilities."

The girl chuckled twice and winked at Tetsushi Mochida.

Now, it was Mochida Tetsushi's turn to be at a loss.

"You seem to still have fragments of the spell~"

"Hold it tightly in your hand, and then try to focus your mind on the person who is most important to you."

The girl smiled and offered Tetsushi Mochida's suggestion.

"Sorry, I'm in a real hurry..."

I can't concentrate on this kind of thing.

Turning his head away, Tetsushi Mochida didn't say the rest of his sentence.

"Worry, restless impulses... that's enough."

"The so-called spell is the feeling of longing between people."

"That is, the heart."

"Whether it is love or hate, as long as the intention is strong enough and the emotion is intense enough, the spell can work."

As she spoke, the girl raised her head, ignoring Tetsushi Mochida's bewilderment, and a fierce expression appeared on her face.

"Let no one disturb us, let us suffer forever."

He uttered those words with hatred in his heart, and his ethereal feelings materialized at that moment, activating the paper doll fragment in Mochida Tetsushi's pocket. The next moment—

An invisible force surged forth and enveloped him, eventually enveloping Mochida Tetsushi, and then...

He was taken somewhere.

Go, go to the side of the important person.

Don't worry, you will reach the side of the important person. Fragments of the spell, such power exists in this world.

Or rather, having such "permissions".

But--

The girl with no connections revealed an extremely terrifying smile, filled with a chilling aura.

The only striking resemblance between him and Yuya Koki lies in the smile characteristic of villains.

"But, who knows, it might be too late."

86. Exorcist Miko Yotsuya makes her grand entrance!

"Well..."

Have I lost consciousness?

Awakening from his coma, Yoshiki Kishinuma, with a terrible headache, looked around in a daze.

He vaguely remembered that before he lost consciousness, they seemed to have experienced another earthquake.

In the tremors, he lost his balance and his head hit the wall, then...
