Onmyoji who mingles in the world of anime

As expected of Akutsu Akira, this guy is a real monster, much more ruthless than most.

He might be the only one in the class with that kind of self-control; even Raphiel and Winette couldn't do it.

However, after a moment of stunned silence, Hanabatake Yoshiko seemed to automatically fill in the blanks with her own imagination, and excitedly patted Akutsu Akira on the shoulder, saying, "Are you an idiot?"

No sooner had Hanabatake Yoshiko finished speaking than Akutsu Akira raised his fist and accurately punched her in the face. What was most terrifying was that even so, he continued to read the book with utmost seriousness, only his expression turned somewhat angry.

"Idiot, don't forget that if you fail your final exam, you'll have to stay at school for make-up classes. Instead of thinking about how to go out and have fun, you should be thinking about how to pass the make-up exam."

Yes, Akutsu Akira was absolutely certain that Hanabatake Yoshiko could not possibly pass the exam.

But that's good too, I can focus on my studies during the summer vacation without worrying about this guy bothering me.

"Are you a demon?" Sayaka Sumino muttered to herself, looking at Yoshiko Hanabatake, whose face was ashen and who seemed utterly hopeless.

"By the way, Satania, did you do well on your exam this time?" After watching the show, Vinette asked Satania with concern.

"Of course there's no problem. I'm the Great Demon Satania. How could there be any problem with a mere exam?" Satania said proudly.

"You're laughing so happily now, but it'll be interesting if you can't come to Rikka's house with us later," Gabriel said with a smile.

She checked the answers with Winette after the exam, and even if she didn't get 80 or 90 points, passing was definitely not a problem.

So now that she's finished the exam, she feels incredibly relaxed, and even has the urge to skip Rikka and spend the whole summer playing online games at home.

Of course, she knew she definitely wouldn't stand him up.

It wasn't because she was friends with Rikka, nor because Winette would call her; she simply wanted to freeload a meal.

Takanashi Toka is a graduate of a legendary culinary holy land, so her dishes are bound to be exceptionally delicious. Most importantly, this kind of food is being released for free!

The free items should be highlighted; this is the key point.

……

Two days passed quickly, and everyone returned to school to receive their report cards.

Everyone in the club passed. Although Satania failed math, the school's average math score was only 53, which Satania just met, so she passed smoothly.

Only four students in the class failed their exams and will have to retake them next week: Kyosuke Kosaka, Yoshiko Hanabatake, Yamato, and Kuroko Shiina.

Yamato is part of Hayato Hayama's small group, while Kuroko Shiina is one of the three "dumb girls" in the class known as the "Gyaru Trio".

When the results were announced, Hiratsuka Shizuka was all smiles because Winette, Nibutani Morika, Machiko, Akutsu Akira, and Sumino Sayaka had all ranked in the top ten of their grade, which made Hiratsuka Shizuka very proud.

Of course, the significant increase in bonuses is also a factor in this.

Tsuchimikado Tou also did well this time, with a score of 91 in Chinese, 80 in Social Studies, 67 in English, 100 in Mathematics, and 100 in Science.

Not only did she pass the English exam, but she also did very well in the Japanese exam, especially getting two perfect scores, which made Akutsu Akira extremely envious.

Although he was in the top ten of his grade this time, he still couldn't break the curse of not being able to get a perfect score. His scores of 99 in three subjects, 98 in one subject, and 97 in another subject made him feel very upset.

Indeed, I need to study even harder during the summer vacation.

Even someone as careless as Tsuchimikado could get two perfect scores, so there's no reason why I can't!

However, Tsuchimikado Fuyu was completely unaware of Akutsu Akira's thoughts, and even if he did, he wouldn't care, as he was currently in the courtyard preparing to draw cards.

He has completed the bounty seal missions for this week, and with the two remaining mysterious talismans from last week, he now has a total of two broken talismans and four mysterious talismans.

With so many cards, I should be able to draw at least one new shikigami!

Taking out a broken talisman, Tsuchimikado Fuyu calmly began his first round of card draws.

Unsurprisingly, the awakening materials were all there. Tsuchimikado Fuyu remained unmoved and directly took out the remaining broken talismans.

Hmm, more awakening materials. No worries, let's continue. There are four more mysterious talismans. Tsuchimikado Fuyuki thinks that even if he doesn't draw a new shikigami, he can still gather enough awakening materials to awaken Kaguya-hime.

The first mysterious talisman I drew was the Snow Woman. Good luck! Let's continue.

The second mysterious talisman is a gift pack of awakening materials.

Ok?

and many more.

When Tsuchimikado Fuyu opened the Awakening Gift Pack, he found it was mostly filled with Wind Transfer Talismans. He accepted them all and suddenly laughed.

"Xiaodong, what's wrong?" Xiaoyi asked worriedly. Could it be that Xiaodong was discouraged because he hadn't gotten any good items?

Just as Xiaoyi was about to say a few words of comfort, she heard Tsuchimikado Fuyu say with a smile, "Congratulations, Princess Kaguya, you can awaken now. And if Jumpy Sister were here, she could awaken too."

Of course, Jumpy Sister's statement was just a figure of speech. After all, the rule he set, which follows a specific order, cannot be violated casually. After Kaguya, it's White Wolf's turn to awaken.

Tsuchimikado Fuyu knew that Hakuro had been looking forward to awakening for a long time, and that he had also collected enough Karmic Fire Wheels needed for Hakuro's awakening. If it weren't for Kaguya-hime's awakening which left him with only two Advanced Thunder Drums, Hakuro would have been able to awaken as well.

"Really? Thank you." Princess Kaguya said happily, she was also looking forward to the changes after her awakening.

"Wait a moment, I'll awaken you after I finish drawing the energy."

"Mm." Princess Kaguya nodded obediently, and Tsuchimikado Fuyu continued drawing cards.

The second-to-last talisman I drew was Yi, another white card, just enough to upgrade the Goldfish Princess to three stars.

It should have been Jumpy Brother's turn, but because he was in Saga, Tsuchimikado Fuyu stepped aside for him. Similarly, the same applied to Jumpy Sister.

Tsuchimikado Fuyu happens to have two two-star R-rank white cards, but Jumpy Sister is not available, so Tsuchimikado Fuyu plans to keep them for the time being.

Although their presence or absence does not affect star-level advancement and awakening, they are of no help to Tsuchimikado Fuyu, so Tsuchimikado Fuyu will not consider them for the time being.

"Give me a new shikigami with the last one!" Tsuchimikado Fuyu shouted after finishing the incantation.

Suddenly, a flash of light appeared, and a red and black aura emerged before them, followed by petals dancing rhythmically in the air.

Chapter 317 The Red Spider Lily

"Do you want to become my floral foam?"

hiss

Upon seeing the shikigami before him, Tsuchimikado Fuyu was first startled, then gasped sharply.

This shikigami is no benevolent being!

The Spider Lily, one of the SSR shikigami. She possesses a stunningly beautiful appearance, with fiery red eyes, accompanied by eerie sounds from the underworld, and her body is surrounded by flying talismans and fluttering blood-red petals.

But behind this beauty and allure lies boundless terror.

The red spider lily lives on the banks of the River of the Dead. In the beginning, she was just a flower blooming on the banks of the Sanzu River. She had no limbs and no eyes, relying on her flowers growing on the ground to peek into the outside world.

Occasionally, when lost souls pass by, she will stretch out her stems and leaves, drag them to her side, turn them into flower mud, and provide her with nutrients.

At first, she was cautious, afraid of being discovered by the ruler of the underworld. But later she realized that Yama did not care about her behavior, so she became bolder and stretched the flower branches to farther and farther places, until the red spider lilies covered the entire Yellow Springs River, and the entire Yellow Springs reflected her color.

Thus, she grew into a very powerful demon, and transformed into human form, which is the beautiful and charming appearance she has now.

It can be said that her growth was all based on absorbing the souls of the dead, and the fact that she could make the banks of the Yellow Springs River covered with spider lilies shows just how many souls she had absorbed.

Although she does not kill intentionally, she only takes those who have made oaths with her to the underworld and then merges with them.

Yes, this merging into one truly means merging into one; the other party has directly become fertilizer for the spider lily. The skeleton in the game is supposedly the one from the spider lily's biography who merged into her body.

Therefore, Tsuchimikado Fuyu was still wary of the spider lily. He was afraid that the spider lily might say something like "Let's go to the underworld together" at the slightest disagreement. Although the spider lily was indeed very beautiful, Tsuchimikado Fuyu did not want to die!

Wait, does the Yellow Springs exist in this world?

After all, the underworld in this world is completely different from the underworld in Onmyoji!

Forget about that for now, let's deal with this guy first!

"Red spider lily, heeding your call."

Tsuchimikado Fuyu looked at the spider lily, hesitated for a moment, and finally chose the most direct explanation, since she already knew these things when she was summoned.

"Hello, Higanbana, my name is Tsuchimikado Fuyu, and I am also your Onmyoji. Please take care of me in the future."

"My Onmyoji?" Higanbana looked quietly at Tsuchimikado Fuyu. "Then would you be willing to come with me to the Underworld?"

Tsuchimikado Fuyu's face immediately darkened. Just what he feared had come to pass. How was he supposed to respond in this situation? Waiting for an answer online, it's urgent.

If I agree, she might actually take me to the underworld, but if I don't agree, she might get angry and embarrassed, and in the end, we'll still have to fight.

Isn't there a peaceful way to resolve this?

"As expected, humans are all like this, afraid of both 'death' and 'monsters,' they are very weak creatures." Seeing Tsuchimikado's hesitant expression, Higanbana said disappointedly.

"Hey, I'm telling you, even though your aura is very strong, aren't you a little too confident to say such things to Xiaodong in front of so many people?" Hearing what the other shore flower said, the three-tailed fox finally couldn't hold back and glared at the other shore flower.

Isn't this newcomer a bit too arrogant?

It's just a big monster. Even if one of us can't beat you, a group of us wouldn't be afraid of you. Besides, you're only two stars. You haven't even felt that way yet. How strong can you be? Can you be stronger than Xiaoyi's kitchen knife?

"Mitsuboh-nee, that's enough." Tsuchimikado Fuyu pulled Mitsuboh back, shook his head, and stopped her from continuing.

After all, everyone who was summoned was their own shikigami, and Tsuchimikado Fuyu didn't want everyone to have conflicts, so he still wanted to try to communicate with Higanbana as much as possible.

"Red Spider Lily, I can't go to the underworld with you, but you can live with us in the courtyard. The conditions here are no worse than those in the River of Three Crossings, are they?"

There are no spider lilies here.

"If you promise me you won't hurt anyone, I can carve out a garden in the forest for you to grow spider lilies."

I remember in an anime series called Onmyoji, in the Hundred Demon Kindergarten, it was said that spider lilies could be grown in other places.

Although the little spider lily and this one are definitely not the same shikigami, it's better to give it a try than nothing.

"A garden?" The spider lily looked around, and the talismans beside her began to slowly rotate until one of them appeared in her hand.

Thinking she was about to make a move, everyone immediately assumed fighting stances, eyeing the spider lily with predatory intent. They were ready to swarm her at the slightest provocation.

This is no time for fair play; everyone's principle is to prioritize Tsuchimikado Fuyu's safety above all else.

Tsuchimikado Touya's body tensed up. He was genuinely worried about Higanbana and was also thinking about how to deal with her if she made a move.

However, the spider lily did not make a move, but instead closed its eyes.

Not long after, she frowned and slowly released the talisman in her hand. "Please guide me in the future. I will take care of the garden."

Everyone stared at the Red Spider Lily in surprise, momentarily unable to process her attitude. The Red Spider Lily smiled at everyone and said, "Why are you looking at me? I just wanted to try to return to the Underworld, but I failed."

Besides, don't you really want to go to the underworld and see my sea of ​​spider lilies? It's truly beautiful.

Seeing Higanbana like this, Tsuchimikado Fuyu's lips twitched, and he immediately relaxed and sat down on the ground. He had almost been frightened by her cold words, but now that he thought about it, Higanbana was actually a mature woman in the game.

Hmm, she also has some yandere traits, which seems quite dangerous!

However, when the other shore flower realized she couldn't go back, she naturally started chatting with everyone, though it felt a bit like she was competing with the three-tailed fox.
