Moe Girl Guardians

"Lord Shiki, it really wasn't me being lazy this time. For some reason, the number of undead in the area I'm in charge of has decreased significantly recently. There are almost no undead that can cross the Sanzu River. I just happened to find a very rare undead with amnesia who has awakened the power of death and has no grievances or merits, so I brought him over ahead of time."

Just as Wu Feng was staring blankly at Onozuka Komachi, another blow came down with the Repentance Stick, but this time the target was Wu Feng.

"Ouch!" Wu Feng finally understood why Onozuka Komachi had that expression earlier—because… it really hurt!!

"You too, you have neither karmic debts nor merits, which makes things difficult. You can't be sent to hell to serve your sentence, and you don't meet the standards to enter the heavenly realm. The requirements for reincarnation are also far from being met, so you can only live in the underworld." The girl's voice was slightly troubled.

Wu Feng then took a closer look at the girl holding the repentance stick. If it weren't for those two blows earlier, she would definitely be mistaken for a literary girl. Her dark green, shoulder-length short hair fluttered in the wind, and she wore a dark blue top over a white shirt, black stockings, and a blue skirt.

Shiki Eiki, the highest judge of the amusement park, is a seemingly quiet and beautiful girl.

"By the way, the Underworld administrators have only been in office for a hundred years and they've been complaining about a shortage of people. Since you also have the power of death, I'll let you go there to join and accumulate merit," Shiki Eiki clapped her hands and made the decision, then said to Onozuka Komachi.

"Since you're slacking off anyway, as punishment, send him to Baiyulou."

"Huh? How could this happen!"

Shiki Eiki looked very busy, and disappeared before our eyes after she finished speaking.

When Wu Feng turned around again, a huge scythe was already at his neck, and what met his gaze were Onozuka Komachi's reddened eyes.

You didn't see anything just now.

"that"

"You didn't see anything just now!"

"...Okay, I didn't see anything."

Onozuka Komachi then sheathed her scythe and breathed a sigh of relief.

What were you trying to say just now?

"..." Wu Feng silently pointed behind her, his face full of unbearable to look at.

Komachi is greeted by Eiki Shiki's seemingly calm eyes, but the raging flames within them reveal the true feelings of their owner.

"Komachi! Is this how you work?!"

What followed was the sound of a repentance stick being struck repeatedly, followed by a half-hour lecture.

When Onozuka Komachi reappeared, her reddened eyes were completely swollen, and her face was full of grievance.

"Um, is Ms. Onozuka alright?"

Onozuka Komachi glared at Wu Feng, but didn't make any move.

"Thanks to you, I got a really bad beating, it hurts so much, boohoo!"

"Ms. Onozuka"

"Just call me Komachi... Onozuka sounds awful."

"Komachi, is the place we're going to dangerous? You seem very reluctant to go."

"It's not dangerous at all. No one dares to cause trouble in that glutton's territory. Besides, there are countless cherry trees there, which can be called a wonder of the underworld every spring. Many ghosts go to visit."

"why?"

"Because there are so many small fry on the road, it's really annoying..."

Chapter Six: The Realm of the Underworld

The underworld is where the dead reside. Most of those who die without going to heaven, hell, or reincarnation live here. However, there is a major problem in entering the underworld.

The Realm of the Dead, much smaller than Hell and the Underworld, lies at their juncture. The turbid, confluence of Yin energy gives rise to many chaotic monsters, mindless and weak in combat yet numerous, constantly attacking passing spirits. (Eastern lore contains very little description of the Underworld and Hell o(╯□╰)o, I searched for a long time but couldn't find much, so I've added some details to enrich the plot. If anyone has relevant information, please let me know~~~)

"Look, these are the lowest-level monsters in the underworld, the Netherworld Demons," Komachi said, pointing to a sea of ​​monsters below the hill.

The monster before him resembled a human, but its body was bluish-green and most parts of it were rotting. For some reason, a word suddenly popped into Wu Feng's mind.

"Zombies?"

"What is that?" Komachi asked, puzzled.

"Um, I'm not really sure either. I seem to have a vague memory of it; it's like a cute and lovable creature." Wu Feng was also a little confused. What is a zombie? (Amnesiac)

Komachi's gaze towards Wu Feng changed instantly. "So cute and adorable? This Netherworld Demon in front of you? What are your standards of taste?"

"Um, it shouldn't be."

"Ugh, never mind all that. These Netherworld Demons are the lowest level of monsters in the Underworld. Even an ordinary person could win in a one-on-one fight. Their most distinctive feature is that they appear in large groups, almost always numbering in the thousands."

She clearly looked down on the demon Komachi.

"Wait a moment," Komachi instructed Wu Feng, then turned and walked towards the monsters.

The demons seemed to sense the approach of strange creatures and all turned to stare in their direction.

The gaze of thousands of Netherworld Demons made Wu Feng's heart tighten, and he couldn't help but worry about Komachi. After all, many ants can kill an elephant, and Wu Feng didn't know how strong Komachi was or whether she could deal with thousands of Netherworld Demons.

The wooden clogs creaked as they stepped on the ground. In the blink of an eye, Komachi had arrived in front of the Netherworld Demons. Without the slightest energy fluctuation, she simply swung her giant scythe lightly, and the dozen or so Netherworld Demons that approached were all split in two and turned into a cloud of Yin energy that disappeared into the air.

It took the surrounding demons quite a while to finally react. They surged forward in a chaotic manner, roaring and screaming, their rotting hands reaching out to grab Komachi.

As Komachi said, it was the lowest level of Netherworld Demon, at most only slightly stronger than an ordinary person. Every swing of the nearly two-meter-long giant scythe would instantly clear the surrounding area. Even if a Netherworld Demon occasionally approached Komachi, the swinging giant scythe would generate a hurricane, blowing all the Netherworld Demons in that direction back to their original forms. Within just one minute, more than half of the thousands of Netherworld Demons were wiped out, leaving only about a thousand.

After swinging the giant scythe once more, Komachi's expression hardened. She stomped her right foot on the ground and leaped into the air. Behind her, beautiful purple characters appeared, forming a circular magic circle as tall as a person. The next moment, Komachi disappeared into the Netherworld Demons.

Having lost its target, the demon, unable to sense any creature approaching, returned to its calm state and began to wander erratically.

Wu Feng also hurriedly searched for Xiao Ting's whereabouts. Damn it, if he couldn't find her, wouldn't his small body become a cartilage for the Nether Demon? Chicken flavor, crunchy!

"Bad luck, some disgusting guy came..." Delicate hands touched Wu Feng's shoulders, making him tremble all over. He only calmed down slightly when he heard the voice.

"Komachi, I think you almost scared me to death."

"Hmph, you dare to lecture me? You'd better teach me a lesson!"

"?"

"No, I was just saying we were unlucky and some disgusting monsters came," Komachi said, pointing to the feet of the Netherworld Demon.

Before Wu Feng could ask a question, the ground beneath the Nether Demon began to tremble violently. Nearly a hundred three-meter-long black spikes burst forth from the earth, each spike accurately hitting a Nether Demon. Unlike Komachi, who was killed by the spikes, the Nether Demons hit by the spikes did not turn into gas, but were instead sucked into the spikes.

The earth at the center of the Netherworld Demon's location also cracked open, and an eight-eyed black behemoth crawled out from the ground, its nearly one hundred black spikes all being its legs.

"The Netherworld Spider is considered a relatively high-ranking demon in the Netherworld. It feeds on low-ranking demons, but it won't let any passing spirits go unchecked. Compared to the Netherworld Demons, whose perception is practically nonexistent, the Netherworld Spider's perception is off the charts. I reckon after they finish eating those Netherworld Demons, it'll be our turn," Komachi said calmly, pointing at the newly emerged spider.

"Komachi, are you alright? If it really doesn't work out, we can go back to Hell first and leave again next time," Wu Feng said to Komachi, sounding quite uneasy and worried.

"You underestimate me too much. Even the top-tier Yin Spirit Demons in the Yin Spirit Realm are nothing in front of me," Komachi said confidently, while thinking to herself, "Since you're so worried about me, I won't mess with you for the rest of the journey."

"Well, the Hellfire Spider's regenerative abilities are just too strong; I need to be a little more serious."

In a short while, all of the thousand-plus Netherworld Demons had been devoured by the Netherworld Spider. Its eight eyes were fixed on the distant Komachi. The oppressive feeling that came from just those eight eyes far exceeded that of the thousand Netherworld Demons.

With all its legs moving, the Netherworld Spider approached at an astonishing speed.

A purple magic circle reappeared behind Komachi, then vanished from Wu Feng's sight in an instant. The purple magic circle lit up simultaneously in front of the Netherworld Spider, and Komachi's figure appeared at the same time. She swiftly swung her giant scythe, drawing a huge white arc in mid-air, and her dozen or so spiky spider legs were split in two as if they were tofu.

The white blade light generated by the powerful swing did not diminish in momentum, and it slammed into the body of the Netherworld Spider, easily shattering its black shell and slicing into its body. A moment later, it burst out from the other end of the Netherworld Spider's body, and green blood cascaded down, staining the land green.

A single, ordinary strike shattered the seemingly sturdy black shell and pierced through the nearly 100-meter-long body. The overwhelming advantage left Wu Feng stunned once more.

The wounded Netherworld Spider seemed completely unconcerned about its injuries and severed spikes. With a roar, more spikes came from different directions, blocking Komachi's escape routes.

At the same time, the wound and the severed spikes generated a suction force, which quickly drew away the surrounding yin energy, causing it to grow back and join the attack.

Facing dozens of black spikes, Komachi's expression became slightly more serious. The purple magic circle reappeared behind her, and Komachi's figure instantly moved to directly above the Netherworld Spider, holding a scythe in both hands, ready to strike.

The scythe in Komachi's hand seemed even larger at this moment, and with one strike, it hit the body of the Netherworld Spider vertically.

【The Narrow Space of Avici】

The low murmur reached Wu Feng's ears. Within a radius of several hundred meters centered on Komachi, a purple pillar of light rose from the earth, extending infinitely as if to pierce through the heavens and the earth.

Within the pillar of light, the miserable roar of the Netherworld Spider suddenly rang out. Every part of its body was collapsing and disintegrating under the erosion of the purple light pillar. Its enormous body, over a hundred meters long, disappeared completely in less than half a minute.

Not long after the Netherworld Spider perished, the pillar of light gradually faded, leaving behind a beautiful scene resembling a rain of reflected light.

As Wu Feng was immersed in the beautiful scenery before him, Komachi returned to his side and sighed.

"That's why I don't like the Netherworld Spider. Although it's just a high-level Netherworld Demon, its recovery ability is comparable to the top-level Netherworld Demon, thanks to the endless Netherworld energy in this Netherworld. It will recover immediately if you don't destroy it in one go."

"Then you still killed it with a single blow..." Wu Feng thought to himself.

Chapter Seven: Luxurious Purple

"We're about to leave the Realm of the Dead and arrive in the Underworld. Are you sure you don't want to have some fun? You won't have this kind of opportunity in the Underworld."

"I really want to have sex, but I'm worried I won't be able to last..."

"Just get straight to the point, you manly guy."

"You make it sound so easy, it's not like you're in charge."

"Don't worry, I'll cooperate fully and won't look down on you."

"You were only thinking about your own happiness last time..."

"It definitely won't happen this time, I promise."

Okay, this is the last time.

"Then let's take this one."

Komachi pointed to the wandering demons in the distance and said... (Those with dirty minds, go stand in the corner!)

The area of ​​the Netherworld is shaped like an 8. The closest point is the intersection, which is also the safest path.

After eliminating the Netherworld Spiders, they continued their journey. Although they encountered many monsters along the way, none of them were particularly troublesome. Most were low-level monsters like Netherworld Demons and Prison Hounds. After half a day, they were about to leave the Netherworld and enter the Underworld when Komachi suddenly had a whimsical idea: she asked Wu Feng to eliminate a few Netherworld Demons himself.

Although the Netherworld Demon is stronger than ordinary people, the difference is limited. Its physical fitness is only at the level of an athlete who has undergone a period of training, while its awareness is far inferior. It is slow-moving and stiff. When it calms down, even a normal person can deal with it one-on-one.

A normal person, when calm, can basically only deal with one Netherworld Demon. But is Wu Feng a normal person? Obviously not. He's been the protagonist for many years, received the combined gifts of numerous world wills—the World Achievement System—along with an extremely cute loli girl. He's also had close encounters with anime girls in many anime worlds (Rumia, for example, definitely close encounters~~). He's practically a philanderer. If this were a novel, he'd definitely be the protagonist.

So... a mere Nether Demon... really can't beat it... Wu Feng was decisively beaten and ran away in panic by the weakest of the group of seemingly weak Nether Demons...

Komachi, who was supposed to be providing support, burst out laughing. If she hadn't reacted in the end and killed the demon with her scythe, our protagonist could have traveled through time again.

"Don't worry, I'll be very careful this time, and the situation will definitely not repeat itself like last time," Komachi said to Wu Feng in a very "serious" manner.
