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

A kind-faced old woman smiled and spoke as she saw Amano Hina and Yohoshi walk in.

"Are you two looking for a place to stay?"

"Correct."

"The rooms are all empty right now. Would you like to book one room or two?"

Amano Hina opened her lips, hesitating, unsure how to say something like "only one room is open," before Yohoshi spoke first.

"Just open one room."

"Ok."

While the old woman was processing the paperwork, Yohoshi whispered to Amano Hina beside him.

"Since there's a risk of being attacked, it's safer for us to stay in one room and watch each other, right?"

Amano Hina blushed slightly and spoke in a voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz.

"Um...I, I can do anything..."

"Then let's wander around."

After completing the registration procedures, the old woman led the two to a simple, Japanese-style room.

How ancient is it?

There wasn't even a bed, just a makeshift mat on the floor. Through the window, you could see the fields on both sides of the road.

"The key is here. If you need anything, just let me know. We only serve simple food, but you can eat as much as you want, it's included in the room rate."

Amano Hina bowed slightly and responded politely.

"Ok, thank you."

"Yeah, you're welcome."

The old woman looked at the young Amano Hina and Yohoshi, who had come to this remote place alone, with a kind smile on her face. She had obviously already imagined a love story where the young couple were traveling alone and taking advantage of their holiday to secretly pledge their love.

After the other person left, Amano Hina looked at Yohoshi, who was sitting in a chair gazing absently at the scenery outside the window, and said with a worried expression.

"Um...won't staying here put danger on that old woman?"

Ye Xing waved his hand and replied casually.

“There are no ‘doors’ around here, so they can’t produce any overly powerful evil spirits. The impact of ordinary evil spirits on the real world is extremely limited. For ordinary people like the old woman who cannot ‘observe,’ they can only cause her to feel dizzy and lethargic at most, but they cannot directly cause physical harm.”

"Ah That's good."

Hina Amano nodded obediently and responded softly.

Fortunately, within the Sakura Province, the only places with "gates" and the underworld so far are Tokyo and Kyoto.

If a battle were to take place in one of those two cities against the weather-manipulating entity, not only would the opponent be able to control even more powerful evil spirits, but if it were an evil spirit fused with the "gate," it could even directly interfere with reality.

At that point, it won't be a question of whether or not the battle will be affected, but rather how many people will survive in the area where the battle took place.

..........

Gradually, it became evening.

The old lady's cooking was simple and unpretentious, consisting of the simplest side dishes and rice soaked in tea.

However, neither Amano Hina nor Yohoshi are particularly particular about food. Being able to rest, ease their tension, and prepare for the upcoming battle is enough for them.

On summer nights, you can hear the crisp chirping of cicadas outside the window.

The cool night breeze blew in through the small cracks in the window.

It's already eleven o'clock...

Amano Hina murmured something to herself, looked at the single quilt on the floor, pursed her lips, and whispered to Yohoshi.

"You should rest first, I won't sleep tonight."

"We'll talk about this later."

Yoru shook his head and turned to look at Amano Hina.

"The problem now is, how long do we need to wait here? If that guy has already discovered that we are waiting on purpose, he can calmly mobilize the evil spirits in the surrounding area to wage a war of attrition against us. We can't afford to waste any more time."

Upon hearing this, Hina Amano frowned slightly, realizing the problem as well.

The population density in the area surrounding Itomori Town is nowhere near that of Tokyo and Kyoto, so the density of evil spirits is naturally far lower.

Those hundreds of evil spirits probably mobilized all the evil spirits within a radius of tens of kilometers.

Even that evil god who manipulates the weather knows how to use moral blackmail to obtain living sacrifices for himself, which clearly shows that he has extremely high wisdom.

What if the other party discovers our intentions and just keeps wasting time?

Yoru looked thoughtful, his gaze fixed on Amano Hina, his eyes seeming to hold a deeper meaning.

"Fishing also requires bait to get the fish to bite."

.........

Meanwhile, in Itomori town, at the Miyamizu family residence.

Miyamizu Mitsuha, who was scrolling through her phone in her room and seemed somewhat absent-minded, suddenly saw strands of red threads appear in front of her and quickly form a sentence.

"Mitsuha, I need your help now."

Miyamizu Mitsuha was taken aback for a moment, then stammered.

"God...Lord God."

"Oh, we're sisters, no need to be so polite."

"Sister...sister?"

Miyamizu Mitsuha found the nickname both amusing and exasperating.

They call their own mother-in-law "Goddess" and refer to each other as sisters.

This messes up the generational hierarchy.

Moreover........

Are there male and female deities?

What kind of help do you need?

"If the bus service isn't running by tomorrow morning, I hope you can ask a friend to help you drive to pick up Lord Yohoshi and take him to Itomori Town."

"Tomorrow morning... Okay, I understand."

After saying this, the red thread disappeared.

........

Meanwhile, inside a hotel room.

A red thread appeared in front of Yoru and Hina Amano and greeted them.

"Lord Yexing, Hina."

Then He continued to form a sentence.

"I've come up with a way to corner that guy and lure him into a trap."

Upon seeing this sentence, Yoru turned to look at Amano Hina, his tone somewhat meaningful.

"Is the method you mentioned the same as the method I'm thinking of?"

"Judging from your expression, it seems you've already thought of that, and it is indeed the right method."

"This method... well, it seems to be the only way."

Listening to the two, one human and one god, engaging in a riddle-like conversation, Amano Hina tilted her head slightly, looking innocent and curious, and asked.

"What exactly is the method?"

The red thread twisted twice, then moved closer to Hina Amano, forming words that sounded very serious.

"Hina, you should know that in order to restore the weather to normal and to prevent more innocent girls from becoming living sacrifices, we must stop that guy, right?"

Hina Amano paused for a moment, then nodded seriously with an unwavering look in her eyes.

"Yes, I understand, we must stop Him."

"Are you prepared for this?"

"Yes, I'm prepared."

"very good."

The red thread, seemingly quite satisfied, tapped its end, then formed a sentence that left Amano Hina incredulous.

"In that case, please have some intimate physical contact with Lord Night Star."

"Eh? Eh!?"

Amano Hina blushed deeply, glanced at Yohoshi sitting there, and stammered, her tongue almost flying off.

"What...is there any connection between these two things?"

"Of course it matters."

Ye Xing took over the topic and asked in a persuasive tone.

"Think about it, what characteristics did the girls chosen as living sacrifices in the legends of the Weather Maiden have?"

Hina Amano thought for a moment before hesitatingly replying.

"Hmm...they're all pretty young?"

"That's right, they are all young girls, which means they are all innocent."

"A...pure body..."

Upon hearing this word, Hina Amano vaguely understood the meaning of "Night Star".

"What that guy can't tolerate the most is..."

Hina Amano muttered to herself, her tone quite complex.

"Was it the sacrifice I chose that was contaminated...that is, me...that lost my purity?"
