Ishikawa Yasuhiro, who was far away and couldn't hear the commotion, paused for a moment upon hearing this, and blurted out, "Akamaru? Where is it?"
"They said it's near Tottori Prefecture!"
"Okay! Okay! Okay! Let's not delay! Let's go quickly!" Ishikawa Yasuhiro excitedly said "okay" three times.
Seeing that he didn't move, Kamiko Kotekawa pointed his sword at the Frost Demon and asked loudly, "Then can I kill it?"
Yasuhiro Ishikawa hesitated, then replied loudly, "This could have serious consequences... So, how about we let him go for now?"
Kotegawa shouted, "But it's still eating people. If we keep it alive, more people will be eaten in the future."
"..." Ishikawa Yasuhiro fell silent, turned around, waved his hand haphazardly, and shooed his subordinates away.
The Frost Demon was imprisoned because it devoured humans indiscriminately.
Unexpectedly, it showed no remorse.
Kotegawa Kami looked down at the Frost Demon, and then suddenly disappeared into the ice cave with it.
A few breaths later, he reappeared, but the Frost Demon was no longer in front of him.
His gaze was calm, and just as he was about to take a step, he suddenly turned his head and walked towards a side cave next to the high platform.
Inside were piles of gold, some weapons with frozen surfaces, and several boxes identical to those brought by Ishikawa Yasuhiro's subordinates earlier.
He looked on thoughtfully.
But at that moment, his phone suddenly vibrated in his pocket.
He took it out and glanced at it.
It was a text message from Yasuhiro Ishikawa.
"Let the Frost Demon die. It was in the wrong first. A special department and a divine messenger will negotiate with the evil demon king behind it. But don't take too much of the other stuff here... you know what I mean."
Kami Kotegawa watched silently.
It seems that Yin Qi Pills and gold are more valuable to ghosts than to ghosts themselves.
"I can't take too much..." He stuffed several large pieces of gold into his bag, then stuffed a whole box of small glass bottles of Yin Qi pills into it, and carried it away.
Gold is very heavy; even if he can carry it on his back, his bag might not be able to support it if he carries too much.
Three large pieces will suffice; I'll give them to Mikazuki as souvenirs when I get back.
He caught up with Ishikawa Yasuhiro, who was waiting in the cave, and together they walked out along the path they had come from.
On the way, Ishikawa Yasuhiro and he deliberately lagged behind.
Ishikawa lowered his voice and said, "With so many eyes watching this time, you can't hide your identity anymore..."
“It’s alright.” Kotekawa Kami shook his head: “They will obey your orders and not tell anyone what happened in the cave.”
Ishikawa Yasuhiro gave him a strange look, as if he couldn't believe that he would have such a naive idea.
Kotegawa is too arrogant to say he has a Nightmare Domain. Whether it was on the way here or when he fought Frost Demon just now, what they saw was completely different.
More than forty minutes later, they finally emerged from the cold cave, each of them soaking wet.
Although the sky above was still blue, the forest had already darkened.
It's almost evening.
A cool breeze was blowing, but no one felt cold; instead, it felt warm.
Compared to the ice cave we just left, this place is as warm as a steaming hot bathhouse.
Ishikawa Yasuhiro took a deep breath, and the oppressive feeling in his heart gradually dissipated. Then, with a wave of his hand, he led the team back.
This trip wasn't a complete waste of time; at least we found some clues.
With a clue, we can go back and report.
Similarly, the death of Frost Demon could also be explained to the higher-ups.
It has been cannibalizing people for countless years without interruption.
After meeting up with the team waiting outside the woods, the ten vehicles started up again, their headlights on, and sped off under the starry night. Once they arrived at a station in a nearby city, Ishikawa Yasuhiro quickly handed over the vehicles and boarded the train back to Tokyo with his men.
Inside the carriage, everyone had changed their clothes.
While eating dinner, Ishikawa Yasuhiro reported the operation to the Special Division, and also reported that the Frost Demon had provoked and injured people to eat them.
Kotekawa Kami sat opposite him, engrossed in his meal.
Ishikawa Yasuhiro, who had been staring at the screen waiting for a reply, had a tense expression. After more than ten minutes, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and said in a low voice, "It's done. This matter is over... When I get back, I'll see if the higher-ups will send me to find that demon named Akamaru, or send someone else."
"Shall we go? This Akamaru is definitely not a good guy either." Kotekawa Kami swallowed the steak in his mouth and said casually.
He really wanted to kill more of these ghosts and monsters.
“Okay, I won’t bring so many people next time.” Ishikawa Yasuhiro nodded subtly.
This time, to be on the safe side, he brought a full ten teams with him.
It seems to be around 1:00.
“It’s okay to bring a little more.” Kotekawa Kami thought for a moment: “If we run into a boss with a lot of kids, I might not be able to take care of you for a while.”
Yasuhiro Ishikawa paused, his hand reaching for the dumpling, and said with a serious expression, "You're absolutely right! Not only do we need to bring more people, but we also need to switch to large-caliber, lethal exorcism weapons!"
The two chatted casually until around 10 p.m. when they returned to Bunkyo Ward.
Kotegawa rode home in Ishikawa Yasuhiro's car, seeing many Special Division patrol vehicles along the way.
"It seems a bit quieter tonight," Ishikawa Yasuhiro said with a sigh of relief. "The giant demon appeared around this time yesterday, but there's nothing here yet—"
Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly heard a gunshot ring out from the nearby street.
He instinctively slammed on the brakes, his eyes widening in shock.
Kotegawa, in the passenger seat, was also a little confused. He looked at the street ahead.
Under the rows of streetlights, only the Special Division's vehicles were visible, and a small team of agents stood nearby, keeping watch over the surroundings.
Ishikawa Yasuhiro calmed himself down and said in a deep voice, "I'll take you back first."
He knew that Kotegawa's girlfriend was waiting for him at home, and he felt bad making Kotegawa stay outside any longer.
The car restarted.
Ishikawa Yasuhiro kept his eyes on the road ahead, wary of a ghost suddenly appearing to intercept the car. He said, "I'll be patrolling around your house for a while. You should sleep a little later. If there's any serious danger, you'll have to come and lend a hand."
"……Um."
Chapter 111 seems a bit cliché.
When Kotegawa returned home, all the lights were off. Mikazuki and Yuka had gone to Kurumi's house to stay.
He carried his bag back to his bedroom, put away the gifts he had brought back one by one, stared blankly at the three large pieces of gold for a while, then got up, took off his coat, removed his protective armor, changed into his pajamas, and, carrying a can of herbal tea, stepped into the quiet room.
The quiet room was still covered with bedding. He glanced at it, walked to the yoga mat, sat cross-legged, closed his eyes to calm his mind, and "saw" the ball of light floating on the sea of his mind.
Although the Frost Demon wasn't much to look at, it was still a powerful demon general, not too big or too small, so it had some merit.
With a single thought, the sphere shattered, and countless points of light merged into the sea of my heart.
[Ability]: 52
[Fist]: 36
[Sword]: 40
[Talent: Heart of Frost]
"The Heart of Frost?" Kotekawa Kami suddenly felt a jolt in his heart, a chill seeping from the depths of his bones.
In the sweltering heat, he suddenly exhaled a puff of white breath like an arrow, which hit the wall and instantly frosted over.
He lifted his shirt and reached out to touch his body.
Upon first touch, you feel the powerful, warm chest muscles.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
Thankfully, it didn't turn into ice crystals.
He thought for a moment, looked down at his palm, and circulated his internal energy. The temperature in the room dropped instantly, getting lower and lower, as if he had returned to the underground ice cave.
A moment later, he finished his practice, but the cool air in the room lingered for a while.
He got up and opened the window, and a visibly cold draft rushed out.
Glancing at the water droplets dripping from the glass outside, Kotegawa casually closed the window, locked it, and stepped out to go upstairs to his quiet room.
I guess I'll have to go find that Akamaru tomorrow, so I'll continue to rest and recharge tonight.
The night was quiet, as if I had returned to the time when I first came to Tokyo.
Before sitting cross-legged to meditate, he was slightly lost in thought, thinking that it was still more lively with more people at home.
He took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
The occasional gunshots that rang out on the street quickly faded away, and the metropolis under the night sky was quieter than usual.
……
The next morning, while it was still dusk, Mikazuki and Yuka returned together.
Yuka yawned, waved to Mikazuki, and walked towards her bedroom.
Last night, she and Mikazuki squeezed together on the princess bed in Kurumi's room. Although the bed was not small, it was still a bit uncomfortable for three girls to sleep together.
Mikazuki was worried about Kotegawa and also had some insomnia.
So, as soon as it was light, she and Mikazuki thanked her and said goodbye, then returned.
She doesn't want anything else right now, she just wants to catch up on sleep.
After she returned to her room.
Mikazuki Seisaku looked towards Kotegawa's room but didn't see anyone. However, he suddenly raised an eyebrow, looking somewhat puzzled.
Is it just my imagination? It seems a little chilly in Kotegawa's bedroom?
