Tokyo: I am the Lord of All Demons!

Author: Jinyan's Dream

Summary:

Question: Do you know what it means when an exorcist walks into a police station to file a report?

This means that this ordinary world has become extraordinary.

Phantom of an Old House;

Late-night train;

An eight-foot-tall adult.

……

Everything.

It all stemmed from that pleasant afternoon.

Chapter 1 The Mastermind (Please continue reading)

Nakano Ward, Tokyo!

District Police Station.

Inside, a female Shinto priestess dressed in a red and white kimono is being questioned by a male and a female police officer.

At this moment, the female police officer picked up a pen, while the male police officer took charge of asking questions.

"Name."

"Shimizu Rinne".

"age."

"22."

"gender?"

"Do you even need to ask that?"

What do you do for a living?

"A shrine maiden is a demon slayer commonly seen in movies, TV shows, and anime."

“We know.”

"Now that you know, why don't you believe me? I really did encounter a ghost at the shrine, and it was a female ghost at that."

“It’s not that we don’t believe you, but the case you reported… our police simply cannot handle supernatural cases.”

"Then who can handle this?"

Upon hearing this, both the male and female police officers simultaneously raised their hands and pointed at the shaman directly opposite them.

……

……

at the same time.

Across from the police station, in an izakaya called "Sato-ya," a man was observing the police station's activities through a glass door.

As the shrine maiden was being expelled from the police station, Makoto Araki picked up his sake cup, took a small sip, and savored the burning sensation on his tongue.

As the wine was being enjoyed, the door of the izakaya (Japanese pub) opened, and the shrine maiden who had just left the police station stormed into the izakaya.

"Boss, I'd like a glass of juice!"

What would you like to drink, sir?

"Anything will do, as long as it can reduce internal heat!"

Then, the shrine maiden made a phone call.

"Hey? They don't believe me."

"Hmm? What do you suggest? I think I might have to do a live stream to prove this."

"This must be taken seriously by the world!"

"I'll start broadcasting later!"

A loud conspiracy?

However, her words gave Araki Makoto some ideas; perhaps... he could use her to gain system benefits.

Yes, system—

As a transmigrator, Makoto Araki naturally has a cheat system, and this is the "top-tier" version where he has no relatives.

The light blue system panel is now displayed on the wall he is facing.

【"Kids of Tokyo"—Let's unleash a night parade of a hundred demons in an ordinary and boring world!】

Number of spiders: 1

You start with one spider; the spider provides vision, and you can adjust its position to gain different views.

[Advanced Use: Spiders can be used to generate a low-level urban legend in any area, frightening people and gaining [Fear].]

[Special Note: Once outside the spider's line of sight, low-level urban legends will gradually disappear.]

[The uses of [Fear] include: generating higher-level and more powerful urban legends, exchanging for more spiders, and making purchases in the in-game store.]

[The above will not be repeated]

[Fear: 20]

Below this system panel is the system's "Spider Map," which allows you to connect to the system's "spider" to gain a view.

That spider is currently lurking inside Sato's house, monitoring the people inside.

On the monitored map, the witch in the house finished her juice in gulps, then got up and hurriedly left.

Makoto Araki shifted his gaze back to reality, just in time to see Suzune Shimizu's front foot step out of the threshold, which was exactly the same as the perspective from God's point of view.

Is he going back to live streaming? If so, this would be a godsend for Makoto Araki.

First, it should be clarified that the urban legends created by spiders refer to spiders whose activity range is very limited, with a daily movement distance of only about one kilometer.

Since the scope of activities is limited, these urban legends can only scare people nearby. After that, due to word of mouth, no one dares to approach the scene, resulting in very little "fear" being gained.

So Makoto Araki had a bold idea at the right time: could he use the start of the shrine maiden's broadcast to create a wider shock?

If we can obtain "fear" through the live stream, that would be the decisive blow, essentially exploiting a system bug.

We did it right away.

Araki Makoto then left Sato-ya and returned to his rented room, where he opened the spider map to observe the shrine maiden who was being watched by spiders.

Makoto Araki's vision is provided by the spider, so in his field of vision it's like he's lying on the ground looking straight ahead; if the distance is too close, he can only see Suzune Shimizu's feet.

Following the shrine maiden's footsteps, you can see her return to the roadside sign, which is the largest shrine in Nakano Ward, "Nakano Yomiyama Shrine".

Makoto Araki rarely visits shrines, and his understanding of them is not superficial, but rather almost nonexistent.

Just as its name "Yomiyama" suggests, Nakano Yomiyama Shrine is built against the mountain and covers an estimated area of ​​2,000 acres, making it an extremely large shrine.

Makoto Araki continued to monitor the situation.

The shrine maiden walked along path after path, past ancient buildings, and even took the time to go into the cafeteria to bring out two dried fish and toss them to a little kitten by the roadside.

After circling around a few more times, Shimizu Suzune entered one of the buildings, which featured a somewhat modern architectural style.

That's the women's dormitory at the shrine.

It was nightfall.

After returning to her dorm, Shimizu Suzune made some quick preparations and then went out.

The so-called preparation refers to bringing equipment suitable for nighttime live streaming, such as selfie sticks, action cameras, flashlights, tripods, and some blessed talismans.

Whether the talisman works or not is unknown, but having one is better than having none. What if it can save your life?

Shimizu Suzune then went out and waited for her best friend at a side entrance of the shrine.

A short while later, as the car's headlights illuminated Shimizu Suzune's face, a Porsche Cayenne drove in.

……

……

The car window slowly rolled down, and Fujita Misaki, sitting inside, waved to the people on the roadside, saying, "Honey, get in!"

Fujita Misaki is Shimizu Suzune's senior in university. The former is three years older than the latter and dresses more maturely.

Because she was going to be on camera for a live broadcast, her outfit tonight leaned towards a socialite style. She wore an off-shoulder knit top over a sheer lace camisole, deliberately showing off the gold necklace around her neck and large pearl earrings, practically screaming "rich" on her face.

Under such a suppressive aura, Shimizu Suzune, who is only 1.55 meters tall and wearing a red and white shrine maiden outfit, looks more like a country bumpkin. It's hard to imagine that two people like this would have any interaction.

Shimizu Rin got into the car and sat in the passenger seat. She had barely settled in when her best friend started a conversation.

Fujita Misaki glanced at her best friend's ghost-hunting gear and said with a smile, "Rinne, I thought you were joking, but you're really going to livestream ghost hunting?"

Shimizu Suzune, who has a soft and gentle personality and style, smiled slightly at the other person and said, "Misaki-nee, do I look like I'm joking?"

Fujita Misaki joked, "It's quite ridiculous, isn't it? A dignified shrine maiden barging into a police station and claiming that she encountered a ghost in the shrine. Even novels wouldn't dare to write something like that."

Shimizu Rinne stared intently into the darkness ahead and said, "Nobody believes this, right? That's why I decided to broadcast this live to tell the world that this world is on the verge of collapse."

Fujita Misaki smiled wryly and said, "Is this some kind of exaggeration? They say there have been incidents of ghosts harming people in many places, but who has any evidence?"

Shimizu Suzune pouted and said, "Why don't you even believe me?"

The other person said, "I don't disbelieve it."

Shimizu Suzune continued, "I don't know about other places, but this afternoon, when I passed by the cafeteria, I saw a ghost with my own eyes..."

"Wow...!" Fujita Misaki's head tilted back dramatically. "That sounds like a pretty sensational urban legend. Shall we drive into the shrine and run over that female ghost?"
