Tokyo: Starting with the Shrine Maiden

A layer of ice crystals appeared on the surface of the skin.

Her fighting style is a combination of ranged and melee combat.

Haruhiko discovered that the ice crystal had extremely high defense.

Ashiya Dōmō's repeated attacks left no mark on it.

At this point, he was in grave danger.

Haruhiko was somewhat puzzled.

Ashiya Dōman had a drinking vessel, but did not use it.

He is an Onmyoji, but that doesn't mean he can't use swords.

Moreover, as one of the Nine Swords of Godslaying, the Drinking Hunt must possess earth-shattering power.

Unless there's something wrong with its status.

Just like Akashi.

The Nine Swords of Godslayer were originally intended to deal with the gods of Takamagahara.

But Orochi was the loser.

It's impossible for the Nine Swords of Godslaying to escape unscathed.

After Haruhiko figured things out, he felt a little scared.

If Ashiya Doman can truly use the Drinking Hunt technique, even with two fifth-tier psychic users, it would still be dangerous.

Because the gap between fifth-tier psychics and gods is enormous.

If the Nine Swords of Godslaying can even deal with gods, then dealing with fifth-tier psychic beings will naturally be even easier.

As Haruhiko pondered, the battle gradually subsided.

Ashiya Michiman was frozen into an ice sculpture.

Except for the brain.

Therefore, he is still able to think and speak.

But it won't be long.

The battle had drained too much of his psionic energy, and his body could no longer sustain it.

"The food and drink will be temporarily stored in your place."

Ashiya Michimitsu said calmly, "We'll meet again soon."

"We await your presence."

Yuki ignored his threat and said...

Ashiya Dōman wanted to say something more, but was interrupted.

His head fell off, and his body turned into shards of ice.

Without a drop of blood, he transformed into specks of starlight.

Yukihime picked up the hunting drink, examined it for a moment, and then threw it to Haruhiko.

A game notification sounded.

【Name: Hunting with Drinks】

Status: Sealed.

[Rank: Sixth Rank]

[Effect: Unknown.]

[Note: The eighth sword for slaying gods, forged by Yamata no Orochi and Ashiya Dōman, was sealed by Takemikazuchi.]

In Japanese legend, after Izanagi severed the neck of the fire god Kagutsuchi with the Totsuka-no-Tsurugi, the blood from the blade splattered onto the rocks and gave birth to Takemikazuchi.

Izanagi and Izanami are the origin of all gods and the parents of Amaterasu, Tsukuyomi, and Susanoo, so their status is self-evident.

Haruhiko frowned slightly.

He thought for a moment, then drew his hunting rifle.

The originally smooth blade was now covered with round, thunder-shaped magatama.

"This is a seal."

Yukihime's gaze sharpened, and she said, "It is more profound than the lightning used by your Aunt Fuyu, perhaps it is the work of a god."

"Takemiya Thunder God."

Haruhiko pretended to analyze and said, "The Nine Swords of Godslaying are used to deal with the gods. Among the gods, only Takemikazuchi has such means."

"If it's a seal from a god, breaking it would be extremely troublesome."

Yukihime paused for a moment and said, "We'll go back to Inari Shrine tomorrow; Fuyumi might have a solution."

"That's all it can do."

Haruhiko put away his hunting drink and said, "Let's look around for any other important clues."

According to Ashiya Dōman from the previous ruins, he could find clues to the next sword in this ruins.

If he was referring to the clone that had just dissipated, then it means there was no follow-up.

After that, Haruhiko could only try his luck with the Moon God's Tale.

However, things took a turn for the worse.

The entire site was spotless, with no extra clues.

Left with no other choice, Haruhiko decided to give up.

The two people and the fox left the ruins and returned to Tokyo.

at the same time.

First restricted area.

Ashiya Michimitsu shuddered as a flood of memories returned.

"how is this possible?"

His tone was full of astonishment.

He would never have imagined that someone would beat him to it.

He was the only one who knew about the Nine Swords of Godslaying.

the reason is simple.

Of those who participated in the War of the Gods, besides Orochi, he was the only one who survived.

The snake spirits are all newcomers.

He set it up in his spare time.

No, that's not right.

There are also otherworldly demons.

But Ashiya Dōman did not believe that the other demons would betray him.

These guys are obsessed with conquering Japan.

How could he possibly become a traitor?

Besides, humans wouldn't believe in demons.

Ashiya Dōman, who had been silent, suddenly raised his head and looked at the distant castle.

There are always exceptions.

For example, the Izumo Shrine, which is located in the first restricted area.

They surrounded the deepest part, preventing any human or demon from entering or leaving.

The only surprise was Gyanca in the seventh penalty area.

But when he entered, the barrier suddenly disappeared, as if someone had done it on purpose.

Ashiya Dōman came to his senses and walked towards the distant castle.

He was going to meet the alien demon from the First Forbidden Zone.

As for Izumo Shrine, it doesn't matter.

The only fifth-tier Hoshino Aoi is currently holding a meeting at the Takamagahara Ruins.

In other words, the so-called encirclement had absolutely no impact on Ashiya Dōman.

Upon closer inspection, the ruins of the city were clearly visible.

The first forbidden zone was the first to be inhabited by the alien demons.

That was in ancient times.

After the Grand Master led her into the city, he set up a barrier around it, making it impossible for her to leave.
