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

"Sai no Ki Nanasei, who hasn't yet gone mad."

"You truly deserve the title of psychic detective."

"I'm sorry, I'm late."

"Someone like you, if you were alive, might be able to save even more people."

After leaving those words, Sakurai departed from the archives.

With a flick of the finger, a spark landed on the doodle-covered notebook in the center of the archives.

The flames roared and burned the entire archive room to the ground.

"A late-night snack is ready..."

"The main event is about to begin."

"Listen carefully, your next goal is..."

"We'll meet there, is that alright?"

He took out a neatly folded telephone from his pocket and said this to Xiao Yexiao on the other end of the phone.

After the paper telephone was used, it turned to ashes and drifted in all directions.

After confirming that Sachiko Shinozaki possessed the ability to manipulate space, he and Little Night Snack were not completely unprepared.

A disposable telephone that does not require a signal can definitely contact the other party as long as it exists in a certain space.

Using this now is just right.

Sakurai walked further away without changing his expression.

This battle is finally coming to an end... [the final battle].

......

......

"Oh...I see~"

"I'll be there soon~"

As expected, she dropped those words and, after waiting for a long time, Xiao Yexiao slid across the table to avoid Sachiko Shinozaki's scissors.

Immediately following, an invisible blade severed Sachiko Shinozaki's head.

Black blood splattered on her body, but it did not slow down Xiao Yexiao's movements in the slightest.

As agile as a blueprint, Little Night Snack, who had been relentlessly pursued since being teleported away from the north, hopped and skipped all the way to her destination.

He didn't even catch his breath the entire time.

Even after consuming so much food residue, Xiaoyexiao's physical condition still couldn't catch up with Sakurai's.

However, it is more than enough to handle this kind of situation.

For someone as insignificant as Sachiko Shinozaki to win her over would be thousands of years away.

She...

But we've been waiting long enough.

So, let the story build to its climax!

Behind Xiaoyexiao, Ziren Tongzi floated and followed her.

Like a shadow, always following closely.

Oni Sergeant always instinctively shows mercy to women and children, so Blazing Princess can't fully trust him and can only fight when things are going well.

In this situation, the most suitable candidate is indeed the self-reliant child who can attack from a distance.

After the late-night snack had gone far away...

The severed head was reattached to the body.

Sachiko Shinozaki watched the departing figure of the late-night snack vendor with a wistful gaze, her eyes slightly narrowed as if she were deep in thought.

Finally, the expression on his face froze into an extremely strange smile.

"I’m waiting for you..."

After leaving behind these words intermittently, Sachiko Shinozaki vanished in a wisp of black mist.

103. Forbidden in the Dark...The Book of Shadows

"The Book of Shadows and Nirvana?"

"The witch hunt that existed in the Middle Ages, and the Shinozaki family who are descendants of witches."

"When her husband was dying, Yoshie Shinozaki used the Book of Shadows, but the forbidden technique went out of control and she was backfired, releasing the medieval witch Nirvana that was sealed in the Book of Shadows."

"In order to protect her mother, Sachiko Shinozaki swallowed Nirvana and absorbed it into her body."

"At the same time, it also possesses extraordinary spiritual abilities."

"This talent was unleashed after Sachiko Shinozaki was killed."

"In the end, the cursed school, Heavenly God Elementary School, appeared in an alternate dimension closely connected to Kisaragi Academy."

"Is this really the truth about this school?"

"The happy Sachiko, who is one with the same name, and the Sachiko who died, are only the souls of Sachiko summoned by the medium in this case. Will the person who holds the ceremony go to Tenjin Elementary School?"

"Although I still feel like something's not quite right, this is enough."

"The rest is just about ending it all."

Sakurai quickened his pace, first finding the Book of Shadows, and then...

To punish Sachiko Shinozaki, no...

Perhaps it would be more appropriate to call her Kou Shinozaki.

She was Sachiko Shinozaki's twin sister, and had died before she was born.

In a sense, she might be the one who has been committing murder all along.

As for Sachiko Shinozaki herself, she remained lying inside the corpse, unable to leave.

Of course, because of the suppression, Kou Shinozaki always thought she was Sachiko Shinozaki, which is why she was so resistant to Sakurai getting close to the corpse in the basement.

As Sachiko Shinozaki, Sachiko Shinozaki instinctively resists meeting "herself".

Sakurai found the answers to all of these questions in that notebook.

Along with many of his previous doubts.

Sachiko Shinozaki did not have absolute control over Tenjin Elementary School; the authority over Tenjin Elementary School should actually be divided into five parts.

Yuki Shinozaki, Sachiko Shinozaki, Nirvana, Yoshie Shinozaki, and... Nanase Saeki.

The reason why it appears to be under the control of Sachiko Shinozaki is largely because Sachiko Shinozaki, Sachiko Shinozaki, and Nirvana can be seen as the same entity.

After learning these things, Sakurai had many questions answered.

The sound of breathing came in and out, then broke in the air, stretched out for a very long time.

As Sakurai strolled along the corridors of Tenjin Elementary School, he keenly sensed an extremely chilling aura.

This is...

Has he stepped into multiple overlapping spaces again?

With a slight furrow in his brow, Sakurai noticed this and quickened his pace.

Then...

Sakurai keenly sensed this and left Tenjin Elementary School.

不 ...

To be precise, he left the supernatural location where the Heavenly God Elementary School was situated.

Twisted and stretched, like a lump of dough being stretched, Sakurai, existing within the "dough," felt an extremely peculiar and strange sensation.

but--

Now that the final destination has been determined, no matter how tortuous or rugged the road ahead may be.

There's no reason to stop, is there?

Looking up at his palm, Sakurai smiled.

He already holds the key to unlocking the truth in his hand.

Having considered this, Sakurai no longer hesitated, took a step, and walked straight forward.

Soon, everything will come to an end.

Sakurai can see what he wants and achieve what he wants to achieve.

Dead silence...

The silence was so profound it instilled a deep-seated fear. The force of the impact upon landing gave Sakurai an utterly absurd feeling; he wasn't standing on solid ground, but rather on water.

Sakurai didn't like this feeling; given his personality, a down-to-earth approach suited him better.

A silent fear spread through the air, and the stench of a gas leak mixed with the strange smell of fermenting corpses rushed into the nostrils.

Sakurai walked among them with a blank expression.

at last...

We've reached the end.

Sakurai raised his hand and touched the doorknob.

Grip it tightly, turn it, and then step into it.

The room at the end wasn't very big; to be precise, it seemed as if it had been built separately just to store something.

For the sake of this book placed in the center of the room.

A dark book called the "Book of Shadows," made from the skin of humans and animals.
