Tokyo: Starting with the Shrine Maiden

"Master...Master..."

Her voice was soft, but it also sounded pleading.

Because Haruhiko had already moved his hands to her weak point.

Minami Utsunomiya previously said her weakness was her back, but it's actually the junction between her back and wings.

Haruhiko found it amusing and went even further.

He suddenly realized that, despite both being at the fourth rank, Minami Utsunomiya was clearly inferior to Yukihime.

Even if Yukihime's weakness is exploited, she can still defeat him decisively.

But Minami Utsunomiya is different.

Haruhiko guessed it was a bloodline issue.

Bloodline is equivalent to rarity.

The Yuki-onna clan and the Coconut Sheep clan are both relatively rare types of yokai.

But there are many Tengu.

"Many" implies "ordinary".

Even if one becomes a high-ranking demon, one's supernatural powers are still inferior to those of other demons.

At this moment, Haruhiko realized that it wasn't just supernatural powers.

He suddenly felt a sense of triumph.

Chapter 206: Mina Utsunomiya's Fear

Mina Utsunomiya returned to the Red Phoenix Villa.

The ten people to be sent to the Takamagahara ruins have been selected.

It's no exaggeration to say that they were all her confidants.

Haruhiko had originally planned to train his own subordinates, but then he thought it would be too difficult.

Those who remained from the Utsunomiya clan were all extremely loyal to Utsunomiya Mina.

It's very difficult to turn things around.

After thinking it over, Haruhiko gave up.

Besides, these people aren't actually that outstanding.

The possibility of reaching the fifth level is extremely small.

As long as it's not the fifth rank, it can't affect Haruhiko's status.

Hongluan Villa, although not far from the University of Tokyo, is located in a relatively remote area.

Overall, it's quite quiet with no neighbors.

But today, as Mina Utsunomiya walked through the courtyard and reached the gate, she heard Minami Utsunomiya's scream.

She was startled; her first thought was that a powerful enemy had invaded.

The Utsunomiya and Yagyu clans had offended many people in the past.

Besides the major powers, there are also lone wolves.

Later, with the help of the Tsuchimikado clan, the situation was temporarily quelled.

But it's hard to say about the Mavericks.

Mina Utsunomiya's second reaction was to prepare to call Haruhiko for help.

Because she is now under a restriction, she is just an ordinary person.

However, she soon realized the problem.

Minami Utsunomiya's screams were quite different from the screams she remembered.

To sum it up in one sentence, it was a bittersweet experience.

Mina Utsunomiya already knew what it was about.

She took a deep breath and opened the door.

The sound became clearer and clearer.

Mina Utsunomiya took a few steps forward, and the situation on the sofa came into view.

Although she had expected it, she still stayed where she was.

How could a fourth-tier demon be defeated so miserably?

Mina Utsunomiya found it unbelievable.

She ran Kabukicho and also witnessed the horrors of the monsters.

Because they are naturally physically strong.

Humans are far superior.

Under normal circumstances, even a swordsman would find it difficult to raise their physical strength to the level of a fourth-tier demonic body.

Firstly, because human lifespan is short, and secondly, because human beings have limitations.

The monsters are different.

Those powerful demons, any one of them, have lived for hundreds of years.

After such a long period of training, the physical strength is naturally beyond question.

In short, what we saw was quite impactful.

Mina Utsunomiya snapped out of her daze, suppressing the tremor in her heart, and stared for a few seconds.

She discovered that Minami Utsunomiya's weakness had been exploited by Haruhiko.

Even so, his physical strength should still exceed that of an ordinary third-tier demon body.

Mina Utsunomiya is a fourth-tier psychic, but she is an Onmyoji and has never deliberately trained her body.

She barely managed to reach the third-tier demonic body.

Now it's subject to restrictions again, and needs to be weakened.

Mina Utsunomiya suddenly turned pale.

She absolutely cannot bear it; she will turn into a dead dog.

Although she was prepared, her pride prevented her from wanting such a thing to happen.

Moreover, her original plan was to use this opportunity to make Haruhiko submit.

It's hard to say now.

Mina Utsunomiya hesitated for a moment.

Her hands unconsciously gripped her kimono.

After standing in place for half an hour, Minami Utsunomiya finally succumbed to extreme exhaustion and fell into a deep sleep.

Haruhiko let out a breath.

He finally understood that what was special was not the great demon, but Yukihime and Tsuchimikado Mari.

Today, I am in an exceptionally pleasant mood.

He subdued a high-ranking demon for the first time.

"Mina."

Haruhiko noticed Mina Utsunomiya's figure.

His gaze fell on her.

"Come and clean up."

Haruhiko greeted him without any hesitation.

Mina Utsunomiya paused for a moment, then quickly stepped forward.

She glanced at Minami Utsunomiya, picked her up, carried her to the room, and casually placed her on the bed.

She had no desire to serve her shikigami.

Minami Utsunomiya has already gotten used to it.

Besides, she has absolutely no desire to deal with Mina Utsunomiya right now.

Before long, he had fallen asleep.

Mina Utsunomiya returned to the hall.

The sofa and carpet were in a complete mess.

She hesitated for a moment, then parted her red lips slightly, deciding that she could only help Qingyan first.
