Tokyo: Starting with the Shrine Maiden

Page 640

Who is it now? And where is it now?

Thinking about it carefully, I feel a chill run down my spine.

With its intelligence and strength, it must have infiltrated the upper echelons.

Perhaps it's inside the Imperial Palace.

Is there any way to track that demon?

Haruhiko took a deep breath and asked.

Although this otherworldly demon was far away from him, it was closely related to him.

Both the Tsuchimikado clan and the Izumo Shrine will be threatened.

"No."

The middle-aged man shook his head, his tone filled with sorrow, "If they had, the Genji clan would not have perished."

Haruhiko fell silent.

This is a difficult situation.

But regardless, this news needs to be told to Tsuchimikado Mashiro and Hoshino Aoi.

That's really too explosive.

"I have said everything I needed to say."

The middle-aged man regained his composure and said, "My time has come to an end. Anyone who is possessed by the Vine of Immortality will not live long after waking up; they will have to join it. Because over the long period of time, we have become one with it."

Haruhiko subconsciously glanced at the game panel.

He didn't actually completely trust the middle-aged man.

Because it is impossible to determine whether what he said is true or false.

But his cheat codes are available.

"In the main hall behind me, there are legacies left by the Minamoto clan, which you may use freely."

After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he melted away like a snowman, turning into a pool of blood.

[You helped eliminate the Longevity Vine and the Genya Shinobu, gaining 700 Spirit Energy Points.]

Haruhiko secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

There is no problem with the middle-aged man's identity.

It's not that shape-shifting demon.

Its main advantage lies in its extraordinary and abnormal talent, which means it can become any person or monster without any flaws.

After all, even their bloodline and aura have been altered.

Even fellow fifth-tier psionicists probably wouldn't be able to detect that something was wrong with it.

"He is not a demon."

After checking him over, Minami Utsunomiya said.

After Shinobu Genya revealed the existence of the shape-shifting demon, he was met with suspicion from everyone.

They shared the same idea as Haruhiko.

"It seems he wasn't lying."

Mina Utsunomiya said in a somewhat dazed tone, "This is truly deadly information."

"Fortunately, we learned of this intelligence."

Minami Utsunomiya exhaled and said, "Without preparation, the losses will be even more severe."

"However, let's leave it to those fifth-tier psionicists to handle for now."

Mina Utsunomiya nodded and said, "There's nothing we can do for now."

"Let's go in and see what Genji left us."

Haruhiko snapped out of his daze and said.

As Mina Utsunomiya said, the Utsunomiya clan is not qualified to interfere in the affairs of fifth-tier psychics.

The most urgent task is to become stronger.

The Genji clan was once a super-powerful family.

What it left behind must have been extraordinary.

However, it's hard to say whether it's complete.

The Genji fought a fierce battle with the Otherworlders, which must have resulted in serious losses.

But no matter what, you have to see it with your own eyes to know.

Haruhiko and the others walked towards the main hall in the center.

Once inside, all fell silent.

The ground was littered with white bones.

There were humans and demons, all intertwined, making them difficult to distinguish.

But it is clear how brutal the war was back then.

Besides the skeletons, there was the legacy that Genya Shinobu mentioned.

Various magical artifacts, as well as spatial rings and the like.

"It's difficult for just a few of us to clean it up."

Haruhiko glanced around and said, "Let's walk around the area first, and once we're sure there's no danger, we'll call someone to come and help."

Mina Utsunomiya and the others nodded.

The crowd dispersed to begin their inspection.

Haruhiko walked inside.

"Owner."

Minami Utsunomiya stepped forward, her red lips slightly parted, and said, "I'll protect you."

As she spoke, she hugged his arm.

Haruhiko instinctively struggled, but instead got stuck.

He didn't move again.

The two entered the inner hall.

This is clearly a place of residence.

Haruhiko opened the nearest door, revealing a scene of utter chaos inside.

Various pieces of furniture were scattered all over the floor, covered in a thick layer of dust, clearly indicating that no one had been here for a long time.

He scanned the room but found nothing of value, so he went to the next room.

"This should be a woman's room."

"That's what Minami Utsunomiya said."

The main feature is that the open wardrobe contains women's kimonos.

This room, in comparison, is relatively intact.

Haruhiko suddenly noticed a diary on the table.

He casually flipped through the book, glanced at it a few times, and then sighed.

The above record is from their battle against that fifth-tier demon.

In short, it was a terrible situation.

In a direct confrontation, the death would be far more painful.

But most people die because of their closest loved ones.

This led to a situation where everyone in the Genji clan felt insecure in the later stages, and they could not even trust their closest relatives.
