Tokyo: Starting with the Shrine Maiden

Unless you are absolutely certain.

Haruhiko quickly came up with a possibility.

Perhaps there is someone who can help in dealing with the Otherworldly Demons.

"Auntie Mashiro".

Haruhiko immediately said, "Let me out."

Tsuchimikado Mashiro was slightly taken aback, but still agreed.

Haruhiko and Mina Utsunomiya left the center of the formation.

He looked back and a new round of confrontation began.

The emergence of the new Otherworldly Demons, while troublesome, only partially compensated for the loss of strength.

Tsuchimikado Mashiro still holds the upper hand.

Besides, there's also Tsuchimikado Mari and Yukihime.

"Mina, you will replace Hoshino Hotaru in setting up the formation later."

Haruhiko brought Mina Utsunomiya along for this very reason.

Although she is not as good as Hoshino Hotaru, she is not far behind, and her influence on the Nine Palaces Yin-Yang Formation is not particularly significant.

"Ok."

Mina Utsunomiya nodded.

Today's events were truly beyond her expectations.

At this critical juncture, she temporarily set aside her hatred and joined forces to fight against the alien demons.

After all, if Ashiya Doman and the others win, her Utsunomiya clan will cease to exist.

Izumo Shrine is not far away.

They are responsible for one of the nine parts of the Nine Palaces Yin-Yang Formation, which is also the most difficult part besides the core of Tsuchimikado Mashiro.

Because they have two fifth-tier psionicists.

Haruhiko arrived at his destination quickly.

"What happened over there?"

Hoshino Aoi's expression darkened slightly when she saw him.

"The alien demons in the second forbidden zone have been released."

Haruhiko cut to the chase, looked at Hoshino Hotaru, and asked, "Do you have a solution?"

Hoshino Aoi was slightly taken aback, but didn't seem to mind his rudeness.

In crucial moments, there's no need to be particular.

This news was indeed somewhat unexpected for her.

"Have."

Hoshino Hotaru nodded.

"Then you should go with him, but be careful."

Hoshino Aoi didn't object and readily agreed.

"Aunt Aoi, Mina, please stay and help out."

After Haruhiko spoke, Mina Utsunomiya immediately stepped forward and helped Hotaru Hoshino escape from the magic circle.

Although the magic circle has dimmed somewhat, it is still functioning normally.

The two returned immediately.

The closer you get, the more intense the psionic fluctuations become.

Several fifth-tier fighters were completely embroiled in a brawl.

Tsuchimikado Mashiro noticed them.

Although she didn't know that Hoshino Hotaru had a way to deal with the Otherworldly Demons, she was a fifth-tier psychic who could relieve stress.

She took a moment to place the two people into the magic circle.

Ashiya Doman and Satsuki exchanged a glance, both feeling a bit of a headache.

Another fifth-tier psionicist.

But the next second, May and the other demons from the second forbidden zone all looked at Hoshino Hotaru.

Even Tsuchimikado Mashiro and the others were momentarily stunned.

A heartbeat as loud as a bell emanated from Hoshino Hotaru.

If that were all, it wouldn't attract their attention.

The key point is the strong demonic aura emanating from her.

"Sister?!"

May and the Otherworldly Demon shouted in unison.

Chapter 298. The Swordsman's Last Strike

Upon hearing the name of the eldest sister, everyone present showed expressions of astonishment.

The main problem is that this matter is truly outrageous.

The two fifth-tier demons called a human "elder sister".

Haruhiko knew the inside story and was somewhat surprised.

He knew that Hoshino Hotaru had absorbed the power and bloodline of the First Forbidden Zone Demon, but he did not expect it to be of such high status.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems reasonable.

It appeared very early; apart from May, no other demon appeared earlier.

As the first otherworldly being to descend after the great war with the gods of Takamagahara, and possessing the innate ability of immortality, it must have come with some kind of purpose.

It was a mission to be a vanguard, but it was defeated by the Izumo Shrine.

"No, you're not the eldest sister."

May quickly noticed something was wrong and realized what was going on.

Over the years, he has visited all seven forbidden zones and even encountered the fifth-tier alien demon among them.

Except for the first restricted area.

Because the shrine maidens of Izumo Shrine are guarding there.

He didn't want to get into a conflict with them and expose his identity.

Besides, his eldest sister possessed the innate ability of immortality, so he believed she would be alright.

But now it seems we underestimated humanity.

"She carries the aura of both demons and humans, but primarily the human aura."

May's face was grim as she said, "She used some method to absorb my elder sister's power and bloodline."

"asshole!"

The fifth-tier demon beside him immediately became enraged.

Tsuchimikado Mashiro, Tsuchimikado Mari, and Yukihime exchanged glances, all understanding the general cause and effect.

As expected of Izumo Shrine.

These strange methods are all available.

No wonder that every now and then, two fifth-tier psychic successors appear.

Everyone guessed it was related to the twin inheritance of Izumo Shrine, but it turns out it was related to the demons of the first forbidden zone.

Hotaru Hoshino remained unmoved, her aura already reaching its peak.

"Auntie Mashiro".

Seeing this, Haruhiko spoke up to remind him.

Tsuchimikado Mashiro raised the magic sword in his hand.

"I am going to kill you!"

The demon leaped forward, its bones protruding outwards like a hedgehog, and charged towards Hoshino Hotaru.

Haruhiko suddenly remembered the Shikotsumyaku from his previous life in "Naruto".

But the otherworldly demon is too ugly, far less handsome than Kaguya Kimimaro.

Hotaru Hoshino glanced at him indifferently.
