Tokyo: Starting with the Shrine Maiden

Ashiya Road was full of humans, and the barrier could not contain him.

The only ones we need to be wary of are the shrine maidens of Izumo Shrine.

However, as a fifth-tier individual, it is entirely possible to infiltrate silently.

He did not want to disturb the Izumo Shrine.

He finds it easier to act in the shadows.

Ashiya Dōman successfully infiltrated the castle.

The inside was also dilapidated.

Every now and then, otherworldly demons would sweep by.

However, compared to the Seventh Forbidden Zone, the number of alien demons in the First Forbidden Zone is pitifully small.

They were confined to the restricted area for a long time, without food and only with meager spiritual energy.

Many Others were starved to death.

The rest are all high-level demons, fourth and fifth tiers.

Ashiya Dōman concealed his tracks and soon arrived at the tallest building, the castle tower.

Previously it was the city lord's mansion, but now it is the location of that fifth-tier alien demon.

Because of her powerful immortality, she actually lived a very comfortable life.

There is no freedom.

Ashiya Dōman sighed.

If there were a story about the Moon God, that would be very convenient.

When he and Orochi created the Nine Swords of Godslaying, they never expected them to scatter, and therefore left no means of tracking them.

On the contrary, Tsukuyomi created the Tale of the Moon Lord.

It's a pity that people are not as good as God.

He had already obtained the Moon Lord's Tale and placed it in the Takamagahara Ruins, waiting for him to recover so he could retrieve it.

But I didn't expect there would be an unexpected turn of events.

Ashiya Dōman approached the castle tower while pondering the situation.

The surrounding demons seemed not to see him at all.

As a former collaborator, Ashiya Dōman had a considerable understanding of the other demons.

Moreover, by presenting the token, one can travel freely without hindrance.

He just didn't want the shrine maidens of Izumo Shrine to notice anything unusual.

He finally entered the castle tower.

The vast palace was empty, without a single person in sight.

The fifth-tier demon vanished without a trace.

Ashiya Dōman, taken aback, risked using a perception spell.

A few seconds later, he opened his eyes, even more incredulous.

There is no other fifth-tier psionicist in the entire First Forbidden Zone.

With his strength, unless one possesses a concealment ability or is already dead, it would be very difficult to hide anything from his senses.

Moreover, this fifth-tier demon has the talent of immortality.

what happened?

Why did it disappear into thin air?

Ashiya Michiman was completely baffled.

Could it be that Izumo Shrine took her away?

But how is that possible?

Even the Great Palace is helpless against the demons, but Izumo Shrine only has one fifth-tier psychic. How can they take them away?

Ashiya Dōman couldn't figure it out for the time being, so he stopped thinking about it.

His purpose in coming here was for Akashi.

So he searched again, but still found nothing.

Ashiya Dōman felt he was in a stalemate.

After a moment, he sorted out his thoughts.

First, investigate Izumo Shrine to find out where that fifth-tier demon went.

Secondly, retrieving the Moon Lord's Tale will help him find the Nine Swords of Godslaying more quickly.

Ashiya Dōman found it difficult to do alone, so he planned to return to the Serpent Spirit headquarters and instruct them to do it.

Chapter 244 Yukihime Cleans the Glass

Back in Tokyo, the sky was already turning yellow.

On the way, Haruhiko encountered many students from the University of Tokyo.

During this time period, they had basically just finished their club activities.

In Japan, clubs and organizations are highly valued.

Haruhiko couldn't avoid it even in high school.

But when he got to university, he had connections, so he didn't join any clubs, saving a lot of time.

Haruhiko looked at the little girls in pleated skirts and thought of Hoshino Rin and Hoshino Hotaru.

I wonder if they will participate in the attack on the Serpent Spirit headquarters?

He took out his phone and sent a message to Tsuchimikado Mari.

I didn't make a phone call to avoid delaying important matters.

It would be very awkward if she were in a fight.

A few seconds later, the phone rang.

Haruhiko and Yukihime exchanged a glance for a second before answering the call.

"I am in Izumo City."

It was Tsuchimikado Mari's voice.

"Are you already preparing to take action against the Serpent Spirit?"

When Haruhiko heard that she was in Izumo City, he couldn't help but admire how quickly she had acted.

But how did she leave the Takamagahara ruins?

"Delay brings change."

"It was Tsuchimikado Mari who said calmly."

"Right."

Haruhiko explained the matter of the hunting ruins to her.

In particular, it is emphasized that the real Ashiya Dōman has already noticed his presence, so she should also be careful.

"According to you, he might be at the Serpent Spirit headquarters?"

Tsuchimikado Mari said with a faint smile, "Then I really would like to meet him."

"Mari-neechan".

Haruhiko cautioned, "Don't underestimate him. As a human, there must be something fishy about him living for a thousand years."

"I know."

Mari Tsuchimikado wasn't angry; instead, she smiled slightly and said, "I am your teacher."

Haruhiko was slightly startled.

The teachers and students hadn't played in a long time.

It suddenly came up, and I do miss it a little.

"Do you need us to come over?"

Haruhiko grasped Yukihime's hand and asked.

I don't know why, but I always have this strange feeling of a love triangle.

If what I'm holding isn't a hand... cough cough.

"No need, and it's too late anyway."
