Tokyo: Starting with the Shrine Maiden

It's not that I don't trust Haruhiko, it's that I don't trust myself.

She was a little restless when she slept.

Fortunately, there was nothing seriously wrong with the clothes.

"I just came here not long ago."

Haruhiko asked, somewhat puzzled, "Aunt Mashiro, didn't you get any rest last night?"

"No."

Tachibana Yui coughed lightly, skipping the topic, and asked, "How was the ruins you went to? Did you find anything?"

She was too embarrassed to tell him that she had stayed up all night watching anime the night before.

This will affect her image and public persona.

"The results exceeded my expectations."

Haruhiko took a deep breath and said, "We originally thought it was Shizuka Gozen's ruins, but it is actually the ruins of the Genji clan."

"Genji?"

Tachibana Yui became interested. She stopped shaking her fair legs and asked, "Is it the Genji who disappeared in history?"

"good."

Haruhiko nodded. "Their disappearance was because of the Otherworldly Demons."

"really."

Tachibana, seemingly unsurprised, said, "Their disappearance and the appearance of the Otherworldly Demons occurred almost simultaneously."

"They encountered a fifth-tier Otherworldly Demon."

Haruhiko looked at that delicate and lovely face and said, "Its innate ability is shapeshifting, which allows it to perfectly transform into a human or a demon, with the same aura and bloodline."

Tachibana Yui was stunned.

Such innate supernatural abilities are simply too terrifying.

But she soon thought of something even more terrifying.

"Is it dead?"

Tachibana Yui quickly asked.

"No."

Haruhiko shook his head and said, "It disappeared after killing everyone in the Genji clan."

Tachibana Yui's body trembled.

The worst thing she had anticipated still happened.

What Haruhiko could think of, she could naturally think of as well.

“Every person or every monster could be it.”

Tachibana Yui patted her fair and delicate face, caught in a dilemma.

Even with her intelligence, she couldn't come up with a solution in a short time.

If you can't verify their identity, you can only wait for them to reveal themselves.

But when that time comes, it will inevitably be a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood.

This might be the final moment when they are all wiped out.

If we don't find a way to get rid of it in advance, it's like a sharp blade hanging over our heads that could kill us at any moment.

"Moreover, with its strength, it could easily become a high-ranking member of either the human or the monster class."

Haruhiko frowned and said, "In that case, a considerable number of humans or yokai will be in danger."

"Ah."

Tachibana Yui scratched her head and said, "Moreover, this news is not easy to spread. If that otherworldly demon happens to find out, then everything will be in vain, and we will lose the initiative."

Haruhiko didn't know what to say upon hearing this.

This situation is indeed very difficult to handle.

There is a saying.

Make bricks without straw.

If it were a serious fight, neither Tachibana Yui nor Tsuchimikado Mari would be inferior to this demon, even though they are both at the fifth rank.

But with me in the open and the enemy in the shadows, it's quite troublesome and dangerous.

"The weak point in the space where the Otherworldly Demon descended, do you think it might be that fifth-tier Otherworldly Demon?"

Suddenly, Haruhiko had a flash of inspiration and asked.

"It's hard to say."

Tachibana Yui was slightly taken aback, but she couldn't give a specific answer.

"It seems we'll only know after all seven spatial points have been explored."

Haruhiko sighed and asked, "Is there any news about Mari-neechan?"

"No."

Tachibana Yui shook her head and said, "She'll be back soon."

So you mean you didn't encounter any otherworldly demons?

Haruhiko touched his chin.

Could it be that they have chosen to give up?

Or is there a way to get it back?

However, this is only the first spatial point, and anything can happen.

Haruhiko hoped that Ashiya Doman and the other fifth-tier members, such as the Serpent Spirit, would be there.

In this way, we won't be like headless flies, blind to the world.

"Auntie Mashiro".

Haruhiko stood up and said, "I'm going to make some talismans. Call me when Mari-nee returns."

He is currently extremely eager to improve his strength.

There's no way around it, the world is too dangerous.

"Ah."

Tachibana Yui waved her hand and then fell into deep thought.

She was thinking about how to find the fifth-tier demon lurking in the shadows.

Haruhiko went upstairs and began making talismans.

After so much work, he is not far from becoming a fourth-tier spellcaster.

After all, this thing doesn't have any bottlenecks.

With enough experience, you can advance to the next level.

Haruhiko calculated the time; there were probably still two weeks left.

After reaching the fourth tier of spellcaster, his strength can take another big step forward.

After all, it's equivalent to having the ability to instantly cast a fourth-tier spell.

Yes, it's really expensive.

But compared to money, life is more important.

Besides, Haruhiko has the Tsuchimikado and Utsunomiya clans as his backers, so this kind of consumption is nothing and not a big problem.

time flies.

When Haruhiko's spiritual energy was half depleted, he heard footsteps.

More accurately, it was the sound of high heels stomping on the floor.

Only Tsuchimikado Mari would wear high heels in this villa.

Tachibana Yui wouldn't, because it wouldn't be appropriate.

Her stand-in, Tsuchimikado Mashiro, is usually not chosen because she is too tall.

Haruhiko stopped what he was doing, turned his head, and saw Tsuchimikado Mari.

She wore a black suit, with a tight skirt that revealed her long, sexy legs, exuding a mature and alluring aura.

"Mari-neechan".

Haruhiko took the initiative to greet him.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Tsuchimikado Mari smiled faintly, extended her finger, lifted his chin, and looked him down at him.
