The Japanese-fear sorcerer who started by taking in Tomie

"Big brother... are you an Onmyoji? Are you here to eliminate Hanako?"

Hanako tilted her head, her head trembling, her empty eyes staring straight at Shin Hengyuan.

An eerie atmosphere permeated the entire women's restroom, making it seem as if even the air was not circulating.

Xin Hengyuan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, leaned against the wall and stood up. He could feel that his ribs were definitely cracked.

Damn, this guy is strong!

Shingen could clearly sense that the Hanako in front of him was the strongest enemy he had ever encountered, much stronger than Jorogumo.

Perhaps Jorogumo could have overshadowed Hanako in her prime, but with the double debuff of not being fully recovered from her injuries and being pregnant, she was definitely not as good as Hanako now.

Xin Hengyuan took a deep breath and stood firmly against the wall.

It was only at this moment that Xinhengyuan truly realized that it still had too many shortcomings.

Not only is he severely lacking in combat experience, but his physical weakness is also a major flaw. If he is approached by a slightly stronger enemy, he has no chance to fight back.

I need to find a way to improve my physical fitness and close-combat skills when I get back.

But that's something for after we get back. Whether we can go back now is still uncertain!

"Big brother, Hanako is so cold... Hell is so cold and lonely... Big brother, you're so handsome, will you come and keep Hanako company?"

Hanako stared with those empty eyes, her mouth opening and closing like the whispers of a demon.

Sometime later, Hanako had climbed up to the ceiling, her limbs braced against the ceiling, her neck twisted, and her fingernails gripping the ceiling tightly, hanging there like a real spider.

"roar--"

Hanako let out a piercing roar, pushed off with her limbs, and launched herself off the ceiling, lunging towards Shin Hengyuan.

"Sorry, I don't plan on going to hell anytime soon!"

Having learned his lesson, Shin Hengyuan rolled to the side on the ground, thus avoiding Hanako's tackle.

Xin Hengyuan knelt on one knee, three scarlet magic missiles already forming in his hand.

"biu! biu! biu!"

Three missiles shot out, targeting Hanako's heart, brain, and left eye respectively, all hitting their mark precisely. The crimson light bullets instantly pierced through her body, leaving three fist-sized holes.

Then Hanako just glanced down at it and rubbed her wound with her little hand.

The three holes healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if nothing had happened.

The magic missiles didn't work!

No, are you cheating?

Xin Hengyuan's pupils dilated in shock.

No, it's not that it's ineffective, it's that the wound is healing too quickly!

Shin Hengyuan's gaze sharpened as he stared intently at the wound on Hanako's body that had not yet fully healed.

Those were the holes created by the tracer bullets earlier. After so long, the other holes pierced by the magic missiles have long since healed.

The only remaining trace of the burn from the radiant damage was still there. Although the edges were slowly wriggling and healing, the speed was significantly slower.

It's not that the magic missiles don't do any damage, but rather that Hanako's healing ability is too strong. In this light, the damage from the Radiant Light can effectively counter her self-healing.

Xin Hengyuan had a bad feeling, because his magic power was running out.

"Big brother isn't answering, does that mean you don't want to come?" Hanako tilted her head, her tone wistful. "If you're not coming... then Hanako will take big brother away."

She pushed off with her limbs and pounced again.

"hiss!!!"

A sharp screech suddenly rang out.

The pocket suddenly bulged, and a dark shadow shot out from it. Its body rapidly expanded in mid-air, transforming into a giant spider in the blink of an eye. It landed heavily on the ground, its eight legs crushing the tiles.

Jorogumo-hime, with her venomous fangs wide open, roared at Hanako before lunging at her and pinning her to the ground.

Xinhengyuan was stunned for a moment.

Shin Hengyuan could sense Spider Queen's near-furious emotions through the soul imprint.

Spider Princess actually canceled her shrinking state on her own?

Wasn't her demonic power completely stripped away by Tamamo-no-Mae before?

Although there are many doubts about New Hengyuan, now is not the time to think about this issue.

Although Spider Princess has returned to her original form, according to Shin Hengyuan, her magical power (demon power) fluctuates extremely erratically, with extreme ups and downs.

It was clearly burning through its last remaining strength.

It probably won't take long!

What a great spider!

Xin Hengyuan praised himself in his heart.

He didn't waste the opportunity that Spider Queen had risked her life to create. He used both hands, each palm producing a ball of scorching flame that illuminated the entire toilet.

"Spider Princess, press it!"

Shin Hengyuan let out a low shout and pushed forward with both hands. Two fireballs, trailing long flames, slammed heavily into Hanako, who was pinned down by Spider Princess, from the left and right.

[Flame Arrow] x2

boom--!

Almost simultaneously, Spider Princess's eight legs suddenly pushed off the ground, and her entire body leaped upwards, barely avoiding the fireball exploding.

Flames suddenly exploded, and scorching tongues of fire instantly engulfed Hanako's small figure. In the firelight, Hanako let out a piercing scream.

Xinhengyuan grinned.

As expected, Hanako is also afraid of fire.

There are many theories about the cause of Hanako's death, but one of them is that she died in an air raid during World War II.

The bomb brought not only a shockwave, but also intense heat, and that scorching heat!

Ghost tales are powerful because of their rules, but they also have weaknesses because of those rules. The cause of death is the weakness she can never escape, even if it's not her true cause of death.

However, because it has been passed down through generations, people believe in it, and it becomes a reality, which in turn becomes its weakness!

Moreover, she just said that "hell is so cold." Hell has an icy hell, and naturally there is also a fiery hell. Judging from the information in her words, the place she is in is cold. If it's cold, why doesn't she go to a hot place?

Based on this inference...

Flames were also something she feared!

"You've worked hard, come back now."

Xinhengyuan revealed a smile of relief after surviving a disaster.

With a swift movement, Spider Princess shrank rapidly, transforming back into a palm-sized Jorogumo. She nestled quietly in Shin Hengyuan's palm, the little creature listlessly curled up, clearly exhausted.

"have a good rest."

Shin Hengyuan stuffed Spider Princess back into his pocket and was about to look up at Hanako's miserable state when a faint voice came from the flames.

"It's so hot...it's so hot..."

Xin Hengyuan's smile froze on his face.

"Big brother, are you trying to warm me up?"

Hanako's charred figure slowly sat up in the flames, her empty eyes looking at him through the flames, her mouth agape in a smile that was more like a grimace.

"Big brother is so kind... It's been so long since anyone has treated Hanako like this. Hanako is so happy, so happy..."

Xin Hengyuan silently looked down at himself through the reflection in the tiles, then looked at the little girl in the fire, whose body was still smoking but who was grinning.

No, this script is wrong!

How are you still able to stand up?

"No, you're not afraid of fire at all!"

Xin Hengyuan broke out in a cold sweat before he realized what was happening.

From beginning to end, Hanako deliberately misled him, intentionally pointing out her weaknesses and making him think she was afraid of fire. It wasn't that he was analyzing her weaknesses, but that she made him think they were weaknesses!

In fact, from beginning to end, all she feared was the harm that Guangyao would cause!

Cleverness can backfire!

Xin Hengyuan couldn't help but curse himself inwardly.

"Big brother...you're so smart!" Hanako tilted her head, her empty eyes filled with satisfaction as she looked at Shin Hengyuan, as if she were looking at a new doll.

"I like smart older brothers, so please, smart older brothers, come down and play with Hanako..."
