I cultivate a deity in Tokyo

A strong white light was reflected off the mirror.

Shiraki Shun looked up into the bright light.

On the ancient mirror that the mirror had transformed into, the outline of a person slowly emerged.

Upon closer inspection, he looks almost exactly like Shiraki Shun.

As the mapping proceeds.

On the mirror, the outline of a right hand begins to emerge.

Next

You will die by your own hand!

The mirror demon, now unable to speak, could only scream wildly in its heart.

This is my ultimate skill, Mirror Demon: I kill myself!

next second.

An untimely, crisp cracking sound rang out, echoing throughout the silent warehouse.

The Mirror Demon stared blankly at the view in front of it that had been split in two.

It then began to fall.

Nani?

Before it could react, a series of explosions rang out.

On the ancient mirror, the outline of the human figure has disappeared, replaced by countless dense cracks.

A very large crack split the mirror in two from the middle.

Has my body cracked?

It only reflected one finger, and that was it—

As the amber-colored demon core cracked open with several wide fissures, the mirror demon ceased its contemplation.

To Shiraki Shun's astonishment, the cracked mirror shattered into countless dust particles, which then drifted away.

This scene left Shiramu Jun somewhat bewildered.

What do you mean?

How could it just destroy itself out of nowhere?

He hesitated for two seconds, then activated the perspective angle again and carefully observed the surroundings.

It has been confirmed that the Mirror Demon has truly become extinct.

He then silently stood up.

He didn't believe that the monster had committed suicide.

It was obvious that it was interrupted by an external force while it was unleashing some powerful killing move.

It's likely that some other monster, fearing it might leak some crucial information, took action to eliminate it.

Are there any monsters nearby?

As a wave of headache washed over her, Kokonoe Reina opened her eyes.

She then struggled to sit up and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"The mirror, in the mirror!"

Before me was a snow-white curtain.

She was also covered with a thin blanket.

The scene around me was already in the infirmary.

Yuri Takanashi, who was sitting and waiting nearby, breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Reina Kokonoe wake up, and then leaned forward to ask.

"Rena-chan, how are you feeling?"

"How did I get here?" Kokonoe Reina felt very incredulous.

I was clearly pulled into the mirror by something!

"It was Shiraki-san who brought you here. He said he found you unconscious in the warehouse."

"Oh right, the warehouse, the mirror, inside the mirror." Upon hearing this, Kokonoe Reina suddenly reached out and pressed Takanashi Yuri's shoulder, somewhat incoherently.

“I know that even if you saw that scene, you wouldn’t be so excited that you fainted,” Takanashi Yuri comforted her.

They meant well but did something wrong.

I thought Rena would be very happy if Shiraki-san appeared in the mirror.

Unexpectedly, Rena-chan was so frightened that she fainted.

If the female lead has already fainted, then what's the point of having a male lead?

Looking at Yuri Takanashi's face.

Reina Kokonoe couldn't help but feel a sense of unreality.

Did he faint in the warehouse?

Was what I just saw an illusion?

Kokonoe Reina tried desperately to recall.

Another version of yourself in the mirror, a hand suddenly reaching out, and then you sink into darkness.

Before everything went completely black, a familiar face seemed to suddenly appear before my eyes.

"Is Shiraki-san alright?" Kokonoe Reina couldn't help but ask.

"Shiraki-san? He's a good guy." Takanashi Yuri was completely confused.

Kokonoe Reina was silent for a moment.

"Yuri-chan".

"Hmm?" Takanashi Yuri responded.

"I think I saw Shiraki-san in that mirror."

Chapter Forty-Four: The Big One Is Coming

evening.

Arakawa District, Tairao Mountain, Tenji Shrine.

At this moment, Shiraki Shun had just returned from school and was sitting with His Highness, conducting a post-battle debriefing.

Just now, he experienced his first exorcism of a demon.

Although the time was short, I gained a lot.

Besides learning a lot about the physiological structure of monsters—

Shiraki Shun also noticed another problem.

The mirror monster referred to itself as a "human" until it destroyed itself.

How did it know it was human?

Didn't you ever suspect that it was another monster disguised as a human, planning to double-cross you?

Shiraki Shun was certain that there must be some difference between him and the real monster that made the monster say such a thing.

He pondered for a long time.

It took three minutes to eliminate more than a dozen incorrect options.

The rest is the final answer.

That's right, it's frequency.

That was the unusual fluctuation that Shiramu Jun noticed outside the warehouse door.

The frequency of the mirror monster's magical power.

That frequency was completely different from his magical power.

It is highly recognizable, and even Shiraki Shun, who had never noticed it before, can spot it immediately.

Only through this difference in frequency can the two be effectively distinguished.

This answer reminded Shiramu Jun of the scene where he had previously activated Fahai.

When he activated Fahai in his right brain, a concealment effect was produced.

At that time, Fahai was imitating the surrounding environment.

If we replace that simulation with the frequency found on a monster...

Could I impersonate a monster and make the other monsters mistake me for an ally?

Thinking of this, Bai Mujun couldn't help but feel a little excited.

If it really is possible.

This allows him to infiltrate the enemy ranks as an undercover agent.

At the most critical moment, he stepped forward and betrayed the monster's eldest brother.

It has great strategic significance.

Just as Shiraki Shun was pondering, a bell rang, breaking the silence in the main hall.

He picked up his phone and saw that it was Yuukawa Yaya calling.

Good evening, High Priest Shiraki!

Having just finished greeting everyone, Yuukawa Yaya couldn't wait to speak.

"Priest Shiraki, I have good news to tell you!"

Shiraki Shun was not surprised by this.

Given Yuukawa Yaya's personality, calling at this time clearly means she has something to tell me.
