"Let's go!"

Kurumi Shirakawa left first, followed by the young priest.

The two motorcycles followed the navigation, one after the other, towards their destination.

After leaving the city and the streets gradually became less crowded, Shirakawa Kurumi started flying again, leaving the little priest far behind.

Kotekawa Kami regretted listening to the girl's nonsense. Despite the bumpy ride, he put his arm around her waist again—mainly because he was afraid that too much force on the back seat would affect the balance of the car.

"Furate River!"

"what?"

"Are the rice balls I made really delicious?"

"Really!"

"But Xiaowang doesn't think it tastes good!"

"what?"

"He can't fool me! He just wants to eat beef!"

"But I think it really tastes delicious!"

"Really?"

"Anyway, I like to eat it!"

Shirakawa Kurumi couldn't hide her joy: "But even if you love it, there will always be a day when you get tired of it, right?"

"Isn't that obvious? Who can stand eating rice balls forever! There are so many nutritious and delicious dishes available..."

"I know! I'll learn to cook other dishes so you won't get tired of them!"

"Cooking every day must be a hassle, right? And how long is 'a long time'? A week? A month? Or a semester? I can eat a lot, but I'm not a pig, I'm a picky eater!"

"How is your life?"

"Dream on, you little brat!"

"Hey! Don't you dare say I'm small! Even if I'm small, I still have a rounded shape! Besides, I'll definitely grow bigger in the future..."

The junior priest following behind looked up and eased off the accelerator a little.

……

The first exorcism task is to perform a simple exorcism and blessing ceremony in an abandoned school building. Considering the possibility of vengeful spirits appearing, it barely reaches the level of [Difficulty 3].

However, the bounty was very low, and they hadn't originally considered taking it. But after the little priest revealed yesterday that he was just a free experience point, Shirakawa Kurumi felt it was necessary to adjust the difficulty of the mission a little.

Kotekawa Kamimi recently dismantled the evil spirits' den and has earned enough to cover the education expenses for his three children, so he doesn't have much desire to make money for the time being.

It's like entering a sage mode; I need to calm down.

Moreover, this trip allows for eight missions, so it wouldn't be a big deal to give one or two to the junior priest for practice.

An hour later, the two motorcycles arrived at their destination.

Knowing this was his job, Shirakawa Nozomi took the lead and contacted the village chief to exchange mission information.

Kami Kotekawa reached into his bag, pulled out the bird, and handed it to Nozomi Shirakawa: "Take this with you."

Parrot Broly was still groggy after waking up.

The junior priest looked them over a few times, then frowned slightly: "They just ate, didn't they? Let's save it for now and roast it this afternoon."

The confused Parrot suddenly bristled.

Kami Kotekawa was somewhat speechless: "Can you stop thinking only about food? Its intuition is very sharp, it might be able to help... Do you want some?"

"I'm a quasi-official priest, I can sense danger myself..." Shirakawa said, his hands already reaching out.

Furutekawa Kami was already used to the little priest's stubbornness, and he warned, "There might be vengeful spirits here, so be careful."

"Hmph, just you wait and see!" Shirakawa Nozomi raised his chin arrogantly and said, "I was only letting you win yesterday! I'll show you the true power of an Onmyoji in a moment! Don't be scared by me!"

"Oh ho? Then let's have another fight after the ritual is over. Use whatever tricks you have up your sleeve! If I back down, I'll call you uncle! If you lose, you'll call me dad, how about that? Whoever backs down is a coward!"

"Naive! Are you a child?" The young priest sneered repeatedly, his disdain evident as he slung his backpack over his shoulder and strode away.

Shirakawa Kurumi playfully punched him with her little pink fist, scolding, "How could you take advantage of me like this?"

"No way! We'll each talk about our own things..."

The three of them entered the old school building where the ritual was to be performed.

Kami Kotegawa and Kurumi Shirakawa stood behind.

The young priest put down his backpack, first taking out a thicker bulletproof vest and putting it on, then taking out his katana, summoning his shikigami Tamako, and slapping three talismans on his body that were said to be able to resist a certain degree of attack from vengeful spirits. Finally, he put the bird on his shoulder, holding the talismans in one hand and the katana in the other, and walked cautiously step by step into the depths of the school building corridor.

Kami Kotekawa watched from behind, nodding repeatedly.

Is this what makes Onmyoji so amazing? I'm in love!

Chapter 110 Then I'll Leave

Inside the old school building, the young priest proceeded with extreme caution, as if facing a formidable enemy.

The two people following a few meters behind whispered to each other while covering their mouths with their hands.

He seemed very nervous.

"After all, I used to just show bicycles to my seniors, and I didn't have much opportunity to practice."

"Pitiful……"

With his back to them, Shirakawa Nozomi's face was long and as black as the bottom of a pot. He secretly vowed, "Damn it, I'll definitely show you what I'm capable of!"

At this moment, the parrot perched on his shoulder raised its wing, yawned listlessly, tilted its head and looked around, and said, "Human, who are you fighting?"

Shirakawa Nozomi let out a loud "Awooo" and flung Parrot away with one hand.

Parrot Broly suddenly had a close encounter with the wall.

"How can you talk!"

The young priest roared, his handsome face turning pale and red, clearly quite frightened.

Kami Kotekawa ran over, picked up the dizzy-headed Parrot, and examined him from head to toe. After confirming that he wasn't broken, he complained, "It's a parrot, isn't it normal for it to talk?"

The parrot, regaining its senses, had tears glistening in its eyes.

Shirakawa Kurumi walked over, looking at Yoru with surprise and doubt: "Is it a monster?"

"I'm not a monster! I'm a chicken!" The angry Parrot flapped its wings and burrowed into the backpack behind Kotegawa Kami, refusing to be Shirakawa Nozomi's radar anymore.

Kotegawa Kami spread his hands slightly: "It seems that the rest of the journey will really depend on your own reactions."

The junior priest, having calmed down, stubbornly retorted, "Heh, have you forgotten that I still have Tamako? She can help me too! Tamako, Tamako? Tamako!"

The shikigami that had been floating beside him had disappeared without him noticing, and a timid voice came from his sleeve: "Master, I'm scared."

"..."

The atmosphere seemed to freeze a little.

With a resolute expression, the young priest walked away without looking back, sword in hand, displaying an air of never returning.

Shirakawa Kurumi and Kotegawa Kami exchanged glances and followed them inside.

The two covered their mouths with their hands and continued to whisper.

"Furutegawa, what's with that bird that claims to be a chicken?"

"Oh, I encountered it while patrolling the streets at night a while ago. It was being chased by a monster, and I saved it."

"and after?"

"Later I planned to take it home to make chicken soup, but who knew it was a bird!"

"Then it should be very glad that it is a bird."

While chatting, the three of them walked around the entire old school building, one in front and two behind, and checked all the rooms.

After confirming that there were no signs of vengeful spirits, they found several nests of rats instead.

Shirakawa Nozomi's complexion improved considerably, and he began his next task.

With a heavy heart, he took out several exorcism talismans and pasted them in several places in the old school building, forming an invisible and intangible "barrier" to protect the place from vengeful spirits for a certain period of time.

All of the above was told to Shirakawa Kurumi by Kotegawa Kami.

Kami Kotegawa didn't know much about the priesthood system, but just hearing about it sounded impressive.

After finishing the final touches, the village chief, seeing that there were many of them, readily paid them their wages.

Then the three of them rode their motorcycles to find their next bounty.

This time it wasn't as easy as before. We were going into the mountains to kill ghouls. These kinds of monsters seem to exist everywhere, but this place is much better than Yamanashi Prefecture. They don't appear in hordes here.

The junior priest fought the ghoul for over half an hour, exhausted, and finally won his first victory, covered in dust and looking disheveled.

The two people next to him, who were practically like brothers, immediately clapped, even happier than if they had won themselves.

Shirakawa Nozomi stood facing the wind, holding his blood-stained katana, full of spirit.

His era has begun!

After that, there were no more bounty missions for him, mainly because he was too slow. At this rate, he could probably only complete three missions today.

They changed shifts. Kotegawa Kami went first, killing one monster with a single strike, and none of the monsters he encountered had a bad word to say about him.

Then came Shirakawa Kurumi. This time, she wasn't just the driver; she also took action, and instead of the spear she used last time, she used a pair of claws made of fine steel—both cool and ruthless.

Kami Kotekawa was greatly impressed and felt a little itchy to fight her.

But Shirakawa Kurumi immediately lay down, looking docile and unyielding, which instantly made the young man lose interest.

The two of them cut melons and chopped vegetables as easily as cutting them.

The junior priest watching from the side first became solemn, then fell silent, and finally regained the calm he had shown before coming.

Being a bag carrier is not bad either.
