In this crossover anime, I fight against the supernatural in my everyday world.

He stared blankly at the crimson moon in the sky, the thick black fog surrounding it, and the eyes that flashed by in the fog, each a different color but all filled with twisted hatred.

"Where...where am I...?"

It wasn't that Light Yagami lacked mental fortitude, nor that his strength was too weak.

Quite the opposite.

It was precisely because Light Yagami possessed strong spiritual abilities that, at this moment, he was able to sense more clearly than Rio Futaba, Miko Yotsuya, Yui Yuigahama, and others when they first entered the Otherworld that this world, permeated with an eerie atmosphere, contained unimaginable terror.

Just standing here, he had a feeling.

His own Emperor Sutoku seemed to be constantly urging him on.

"Call my true name, call my true name..."

The embodiment of the soul is the manifestation of the user's own soul and inner self.

Emperor Sutoku's urging at this moment was not because Light Yagami, as usual, had been aroused by the desire to kill when facing sinners.

Rather, it was because Light Yagami felt an emotion he had never experienced before in his life.

fear.

Light Yagami was unable to describe his feelings at that moment in words.

A genius, the son of the Metropolitan Police Department's Criminal Investigation Bureau Chief, handsome, tall, and the top student in the entire school...

All the words that describe Light Yagami's image in the eyes of others, words that would inspire awe and envy in the outside world, become pale and powerless in this world.

All of this has lost its meaning.

There is no order here, and no safe place to hide.

This world is filled only with despair, oppression, and terror.

"dududu~"

Just as Light Yagami was sinking deeper into fear, his long brown hair already soaked with sweat, and he was about to call out his Emperor Sutoku, an extremely piercing suona horn blast abruptly pulled him back from his thoughts.

Light Yagami mechanically turned his head and saw that Yosei was holding a completely black musical instrument in her hand and playing it with great concentration.

"Dudududu~"

Light Yagami froze.

no....

This thing, I think it's called a suona?

You have this skill too?

No, that's not the point.

The key point is that the other party is in this world, which makes him feel utterly hopeless and is filled with eerie atmosphere, yet he still has the mood to play an instrument?

Judging from the way he looks, he seems to be enjoying it?

Not buddy.

You're already like this, and you still say I have a mental illness?

This could be considered a confirmed diagnosis, right?

wrong.

Light Yagami frowned, sensing that things were not so simple.

I was almost overwhelmed by fear, but thankfully the clear sound of the suona helped me.

Given the other person's personality, would they really suddenly and inexplicably go crazy in this world?

Such a loud suona horn sound will surely attract the attention of those restless creatures in the black mist.

The other party must have some reason for doing this that I don't know.

Well, that must be the case.

Light Yagami wanted to ask a question immediately, but seeing how engrossed Yosei was in playing, he hesitated for a moment and ultimately decided not to interrupt.

Don't say it.

That's quite a boast.

At that moment, Light Yagami suddenly noticed something.

Why does the surrounding black fog seem to have thinned out a lot?

When we first entered this place, those eyes that were faintly visible in the mist, watching us intently, had all disappeared at this moment.

Why is that?

Is it because of the sound of the suona?

Can the suona (a traditional Chinese wind instrument) ward off evil spirits?

Just as Light Yagami was pondering to himself, he suddenly saw a beautiful woman in a white kimono walking towards him from a distance, exuding an elegant air.

His expression changed instantly.

Light Yagami was not impressed by the other person's appearance.

He wasn't particularly interested in women.

It was because Light Yagami sensed an unprecedentedly terrifying aura emanating from the woman in white.

As someone who has awakened the ability to materialize his soul, the ability to see ghosts is his most basic ability.

Light Yagami could see it clearly.

As the woman in white walked over step by step, a winding red river seemed to extend from beneath her feet.

That's not a river.

Instead, it was a path paved with thick, sticky blood, exuding an aura of death.

Light Yagami felt every pore on his body tremble incessantly before the aura emanating from the woman in white.

This guy...

What level of evil spirit is it?

Just as Yagami Light was about to summon his Emperor Sutoku, he saw the woman in white, who didn't even glance at him, walk straight up to Yoshinori, bow slightly, and say with a smile.

"Hello."

"All right."

Ye Xing dismissed the suona, which was made of evil spirit power, from his hand and casually responded with a single sentence.

Seeing this scene before him, Light Yagami was completely shocked.

what's the situation?

It's obvious that the woman in white must be an evil spirit.

Moreover, it was the most powerful and terrifying thing that Light Yagami had ever seen since his soul awakened and materialized. Just by standing there, without making any movements, the aura he unintentionally exuded was enough to make him feel terrified. It was a powerful evil spirit whose life was on the verge of extinction.

But look at it like this...

The other party actually had a very respectful attitude in front of Ito-kun, and even subtly regarded himself as a subordinate.

How could such a thing happen?

Isn't Ito-kun's strength comparable to mine, the kind where neither of us can hurt the other?

Could it be that...

The opponent was hiding their true strength?

Yoshiki had no idea that Light Yagami's inner thoughts were so complex.

However, even if he knew, he wouldn't care.

At the very beginning, even Yotsuya Miko, who possessed the ability to see ghosts, couldn't see the pale demon hand following Yohoshi.

the reason is simple.

Just like Oda Noto, the Godmother of Gods, who possessed some spiritual power but not much, she was unable to see overly powerful evil spirits.

At that time, Yotsuya Miko was too weak.

The power gap between the two was so great that Yotsuya Miko didn't even have the qualifications to independently observe the Pale Demon Hand.

The same applies to Light Yagami.

What he sensed was not the power of Night Star.

It was just a portion of what Night Star chose to display—the power of a single pale ghost hand.

In other words.

Light Yagami's current combat power is roughly equivalent to that of a Pale Demon Hand.

Only one person... no, only one evil spirit, could truly sense even a glimpse of Night Star's true power, as if seeing only a part of the whole picture.

That was the great demon standing before him at that moment.

Tamamo-mae.

"this place."

Yoru took out a map from his pocket and pointed to the area that Yagami Light had mentioned earlier.

Does a 'door' exist?

Tamamo-no-Mae glanced upwards, nodded slightly, and replied softly.

"Yes, there is a 'door' that suddenly appeared in the last couple of days. I was just about to tell you, but I didn't expect you already knew."

099 Flying with the Hand, Night Star's True Protagonist Aura

During this period, Yoruichi, the number one exorcist in Kyoto, and Tamamo-no-Mae, the great demon in the otherworld of Kyoto, completed several close and fruitful collaborations.

Tamamo-no-Mae, who wields influence in the underworld, compiles a briefing containing information such as the locations, abilities, and patterns of appearance of powerful evil spirits within the underworld.

Then, it is handed over to the members of the Superpower Society who have entered the Inner World.
