I cultivate a deity in Tokyo

And why did Yuko Ishigami attack Kokonoe?

"Ishigami-kun, can you hear me?" Shiraki Shun called out loudly.

The face on the insect's body remained expressionless, ignoring Bai Mujun's words as if it were merely a decoration.

Instead, the strange insect swept its hard, long tail, and its enormous body, emitting a foul stench, sprang towards Shiraki Shun.

Seeing the approaching figure, Shiramu Jun remained completely calm.

He held Reina Kokonoe, who had gone mad from overheating, in one arm.

In his other palm, a tiny, emotionless silver light condensed.

Then it slapped forward.

Crescent Palm Mini!

Chapter Fifty-Nine: The Holy Light Palm That Sends You to the Underworld

The light of the crescent palm faded.

The strange insect was blasted several meters away and crashed into the wall with a loud bang.

He fell down and lay sprawled on the ground like a rag doll, his body convulsing uncontrollably.

The insect's body was riddled with holes due to the trauma inflicted by the crescent palm.

As for the reason why it wasn't directly exorcised—

It wasn't because it was strong, but because Shiraki Shun showed mercy.

This is also the reason why Shiraki Shun uses the Mini Crescent Palm.

He wanted to try again to communicate with Yuko Ishigami's spirit.

According to Shiraki Shun's idea.

Yuko Ishigami's spirit has not completely dissipated at this moment.

Rather, it was trapped deep within, obstructed by those filthy lights, and unable to respond to the outside world.

But after the strange insect was struck by the Mini Crescent Palm and suffered severe damage, it was able to escape.

The filthy light covering Ishigami Yuko's spirit dimmed, unable to suppress it any longer.

Sure enough, with the loss of that filth's suppression...

On the insect's body, Yuko Ishigami's eyes were no longer as dazed as before, and she had become more clear-headed.

Even when she saw Kokonoe Reina, a hint of relief flashed in her eyes.

"Ishigami-kun, can you hear me?" Seeing that it was indeed effective, Shiraki Shun asked again.

Yuko Ishigami's eyelids twitched, and she looked at Shun Shiraki with a somewhat blank expression.

Shiraki Shun asked, speaking slowly and deliberately, word by word.

Do you remember what happened?

Although she has regained some of her human sanity, Yuko Ishigami's memory is clearly still in a state of confusion.

She could only respond to Shiramu Jun's questions with fragmented words.

"Email Phone"

"A monster appeared in my house."

"It hurts so much!"

"A monster?" Shiraki Shun frowned. "What kind of monster?"

Just as I expected.

Yuko Ishigami was deliberately distorted into her current state by something.

But when she talks about monsters, does she mean demons or ghosts?

""

Yuko Ishigami did not answer the question, but instead lowered her head in silence, her insect body trembling violently.

It was as if that memory was a complete blank for her.

Seeing this, Bai Mujun did not force the issue, but instead advised, "Alright, stop thinking about it."

He paused, then asked again.

"Ishigami-kun, Fujisaka-kun, you were the one who did it, weren't you?"

Upon hearing this name, a strange glint flashed in Yuko Ishigami's eyes.

A voice, filled with hatred, rose from his throat: "They deserve to die."

Shiraki Shun remained silent for a while.

He then asked.

"So, is there anything else you haven't finished wishing for?"

Upon hearing this, Yuko Ishigami slowly raised her head.

The shattered insect body rose again, with only a few remaining compound legs dangling on either side.

It crawled towards Shiramu Jun little by little.

He crawled along, mumbling incoherently.

"Mayumi Fujisaka, damn it!"

"But Yuko Ishigami also deserves to die."

Damn it!

Despite muttering those words angrily.

But his eyes were incredibly clear.

She looked at Shiramu Jun pleadingly.

Shiraki Shun sighed.

"I understand."

He slowly raised his arm.

He aimed his palm at Yuko Ishigami's face.

Looking at her warm palm, Yuko Ishigami did not resist anymore.

Instead, she closed her eyes peacefully and waited silently.

But Bai Mujun hesitated to strike.

I still feel a little reluctant.

Although he knew in his heart that Yuko Ishigami had long since died, what remained here was only her spirit that had not yet ascended to heaven.

Nevertheless, when it came to actually taking action, I still felt somewhat uneasy.

Strictly speaking, Yuko Ishigami was also a victim.

They were victims of both school violence and paranormal events.

In some ways, she is the most pitiful one.

But she did kill someone after all.

Regardless of whether it was their original intention or not.

This is something that cannot be forgiven.

Moreover, if he doesn't take action, Yuko Ishigami will sooner or later be enveloped in filth again, just like before, and fall into evil spirits.

I'm afraid that by then, not even a trace of humanity will be visible.

Bai Mujun's mind stirred slightly.

A silver light, unlike anything seen before, shone in his palm.

It was a warm, kind, and benevolent light that inspired people to do good.

This move was something Shiraki Shun realized when Granny Funo ascended to heaven.

It was named the Holy Light Palm.

The reason for using the Holy Light Palm is simple.

Shiraki Shun was worried that if he directly exorcised Ishigami Yuko, she would fall into the underworld as a ghost.

In Shintoism, death is considered unclean.

This is also why there are no cemeteries or funerals held at the shrine.

Moreover, someone like Yuko Ishigami, who has also mixed in other impure spirits.

If a spirit like this were to go directly to the underworld, it probably wouldn't be allowed to reincarnate, right?

Bai Mujun's Holy Light Palm is a move specifically designed for spirits.

It can thoroughly cleanse the filth from their soul before sending them to their next life.

At that moment, Shiramu Jun gently stroked it with his palm.

Like a loving god bestowing sweet dew and radiance, giving caresses to souls that have been tormented.

When his palm is lowered.

The tattered insect body vanished like a bubble.

Yuko Ishigami's face gradually transformed into hazy shadows.

Her eyes slowly widened.

It was as if I had regained a moment of clarity.

His lips twitched slightly, a half-smile playing on his lips.

She left behind a soft whisper.
