Tokyo: I am the Lord of All Demons!

Risa Ishikawa was still thinking about these things, but Suzune Shimizu, who was standing next to her, had already gone off to think about other things.

She wondered why Hanako Sachiko had stopped attacking and instead stayed on the moon, watching them intently.

Meanwhile, the shrine maiden at the entrance of the Shinto Hall, who looked like a gatekeeper, didn't launch an attack. She just stood there, completely still.

And so, the two sides remained deadlocked, with no resolution reached.

At this moment, Ooi Yuomi came out. He noticed both sides fighting, as well as Shimizu Suzune and Ishikawa Risa.

So he started thinking about how to break the deadlock. Seeing that neither side seemed to be planning to fight, he became a little anxious. Should he launch the first attack?

The ideal is beautiful, but reality is too harsh. Ooi Yushin himself does not have enough control over the Totsuka Blade and is not good at ranged attacks, especially against the air. So even if the first shot is to be fired, the other two have to initiate it.

Shimizu Suzune then helped Ishikawa Risa back into the Shinto Hall; the two of them did not intend to start a new battle at the moment.

Especially for Shimizu Suzune, the current plot development is not quite what she expected.

What happened to creating an illusion and then locking them in pairs? If Hanako and Sachiko don't do this kind of thing, it will be difficult to fight them off.

Why do I say that? Because if they don't spare some of their strength to go to other worlds, Shimizu Suzune feels that she might not be able to withstand Hanako's attacks, and she wouldn't be able to launch a sneak attack on Sachiko.

Secondly, Shimizu Suzune is still waiting for Enma Ai to launch a sneak attack, but since she is not currently engaged in a fight with Hanako Sachiko, Enma Ai probably won't dare to launch a sneak attack, which leaves her with no solution.

However, to everyone's surprise, when Shimizu Suzune and Ishikawa Risa retreated to Shinto Hall, and Ooi Yuomi also began to retreat, Hanako Sachiko actually launched a fierce attack on Shinto Hall!

It was as if a barrage of arrows was being fired, and countless projectiles of demonic power were being unleashed at the person in front of the Shinto Hall!

"BOOM—!!"

When the first "shell" hit the entrance to the Shinto Hall, the shockwave from the explosion shattered the glass of the Shinto Hall.

The remaining shockwaves, like vicious snakes, darted into the interior of the Shinto Hall, tearing at the divine messengers with ferocity.

Upon seeing this, the three divine messengers immediately assumed a defensive stance to avoid being blown away by the shockwave.

There were thousands upon thousands of those "shells" just now. The shockwave from just one explosion was enough to make the three of them feel a little uncomfortable. If all of them had hit them, they would have been seriously injured even if they didn't die!

However, to everyone's surprise, despite the continuous rumbling sounds outside, only the blast wave from a single cannonball managed to penetrate the interior of the Shinto Hall.

The three divine messengers raised their heads and looked towards the entrance of the Divine Hall, where they discovered that a barrier of divine light had been erected outside, which had blocked all the cannonballs.

After all the shells were blocked, the barrier disappeared automatically, and everyone finally recovered from the attack.

Shinto Hall, outside the door.

That's right, the saturation attack that Hanako Sachiko just launched against Shinto Hall was blocked by Jun.

Despite enduring so many attacks, Ah Chun remained focused, staring intently at the two ghostly girls on the moon, muttering to himself, "Now, it's time to fight back."

Upon hearing Jun's voice, Hanako Sachiko, who was far away in the sky, involuntarily shrank back slightly.

Then, they saw Ah Chun fly up to them in a flash. Ah Chun then conjured a naginata from behind her, and the purple light of the naginata shone on the faces of the two ghosts.

Incidentally, Hanako Sachiko never believed that Jun was Morita Jun from the beginning. Ghosts don't identify people by their appearance, but by their aura, so Jun was clearly not human.

Chun raised his naginata and slashed directly between Hanako and Sachiko, intending to sever their connection.

Left with no other choice, Hanako and Sachiko were forced to go their separate ways, and Jun's knife missed its mark as expected.

After being forced apart, Hanako, before Jun could react, quickly summoned countless demonic hands from behind her back and grabbed at Jun's face!

Ah Chun is very fast, but unfortunately her skills have a recovery time. As soon as she slashes out with her sword, she is countered, which makes it impossible for her to perfectly dodge the Ghost Hand's attack.

"Thorn--!"

The sound of a face being torn apart.

And just like that, Chun's face was torn apart by the demonic hand summoned by Hanako!

However, Ah Chun didn't care about this issue at all; she simply didn't care.

She was just a soul, and her appearance could be restored at any time. Having her face torn off only resulted in the loss of a little bit of divine power.

After sheathing his sword, Jun swung the naginata again, but this time he didn't slash at Hanako on the left. Instead, he aimed at Sachiko, who was stuck on the right.

Yes, Sachiko is a weakness, and Jun already knew this, so he ignored Hanako's threat.

Caught off guard by the attack, Sachiko quickly flew backward, but Jun didn't care and chased after her, seemingly determined to kill her tonight.

But Hanako wasn't one to back down; she wouldn't just stand by and watch her companion be killed by Jun.

As she flew up, she directed the ghost hand to continuously attack and pull at Ah Chun's body and legs.

Chun is not a god, and her divine power is not inexhaustible. Therefore, under Hanako's relentless attacks, she had to give up chasing Sachiko and turn to face Hanako behind her, preparing to parry the attacks.

Since Hanako is an invincible body that focuses on defense, her attacks are not strong, and Jun easily neutralized Hanako's attacks one by one.

Subsequently, in order to temporarily halt Hanako's relentless attacks, Jun had no choice but to summon a divine light to counterattack Hanako.

Hanako is invincible, so she has little intention of parrying or defending, and instead parries directly with her face.

As a result, a piece of Hanako's face was blown off, and she could no longer maintain flight, falling straight down.

Hanako wasn't the target, so Chun only glanced at her before turning back to look for Sachiko again, only to find that she had vanished without a trace.

Sensing something was wrong, Chun turned her head again to look for Hanako, who had fallen, but of course, she couldn't find her.

After waiting for a long time without any new developments, Hanako Sachiko escaped right in front of Jun.

Jun was puzzled by Hanako and Sachiko's escape, feeling that either they hadn't gone all out, or their strength had been severely weakened because there were no living people left in the city to harvest fear.

Chun prefers the latter, because for demon kings like Hanako and Sachiko to increase their strength, they must first reap the fear of humans.

In any case, Hanako Sachiko was defeated, the Shinto Hall was defended, and Jun wanted to go back and report.

However, at this moment, Ah Chun unexpectedly discovered that there were several ghosts lurking not far from the battlefield.

Those ghosts were not much weaker than Hanako Sachiko in terms of strength, and could even be said to be stronger.

Ah Chun frowned; the fact that there were other ghosts outside the battlefield was not part of the original plan.

However, chasing after them was not part of the original plan; they would be left alone as long as the Shinto Hall did not launch an attack.

While Ah Chun was still wondering, the two ghostly girls outside the battlefield seemed to have sensed that the wind direction was wrong and actually began to retreat.

So, Ah Chun could only watch helplessly as the two seemingly malevolent ghost girls fled the Shinto Hall battlefield.

That's right, those two girls were Enma Ai and Yamamura Kikuko. They were wondering why Hanako Sachiko, Shimizu Suzune and the others didn't play by the rules.

What happened to creating an illusion? If Hanako Sachiko doesn't create an illusion, then Shimizu Suzune won't be able to effectively attack Hanako Sachiko, and Enma Ai and Yamamura Kikuko won't dare to launch a sneak attack.

After all, no matter what, Hanako Sachiko is still the Demon King and is at the height of her power. If they were to confront them head-on, Enma Ai and Yamamura Kikuko would not gain any advantage.

Moreover, if the spirits were to actually clash head-on, it might escalate to the level of the High God, and things could get very complicated.

Enma Ai and Yamamura Kikuko are now hiding in the shadows, speeding up their escape from Tokyo.

As Kikuko Yamamura ran like a ninja, she turned her head and asked, "By the way, Ai, why are we running away?"

As Enma Ai ran away as a ninja, she sighed and replied, "Sigh, the plan has changed, and there are too many powerful figures on the battlefield. It's better to save our lives!"

Kikuko Yamamura didn't quite understand: "Huh? Big boss? Who else is there besides Hanako and Sachiko?"

Enma Ai shook her head: "I don't know, but that semi-transparent woman looks very powerful. Didn't you notice?"

Kikuko Yamamura looked apologetic and said, "No, I was actually observing the situation of the divine messengers just now..."

Upon hearing this, Enma Ai couldn't help but retort, "You missed such a wonderful moment!"

Kikuko Yamamura laughed and said, "Oh dear, it's my fault. Tell me about it!"

Enma Ai bit her lip and said, "There's not much to say. It's just that someone who can suddenly be on par with Hanako Sachiko... and might even be stronger than them."

Kikuko Yamamura shook her head, "How could this be? Logically speaking, such a person shouldn't exist in the world..."

Enma Ai nodded: "So that's the problem. When something unknown appears on the battlefield, we have to evacuate."

Kikuko Yamamura thought for a moment and said, "Then let's evacuate here."

The two then stopped.

Next, Enma Ai and Yamamura Kikuko found a secluded spot and began to observe the semi-transparent humanoid figure in the distance.

Enma Ai activated her super-range vision and used her demonic power to measure the person, while continuously explaining, "Preliminary assessment suggests that this guy was created by divine power, and the interior of that divine power may contain a soul..."

Kikuko Yamamura was also watching, but her eyes weren't as sharp as Ai Enma's. She could only watch on her own while Ai Enma explained things to her.

Looking at the person standing at the entrance of the Shinto Hall, Kikuko Yamamura began to speculate: "Could it be that those divine messengers couldn't defeat Sachiko Hanako, so they sought help from their gods and sent down a humanoid weapon from the sky?"

Enma Ai chimed in, "That's a possibility. I knew it! Hanako and Sachiko can't handle anything right, and now they've gotten themselves into trouble with this thing!"

Enma Ai's tone became noticeably stronger in the last sentence, which clearly showed how dissatisfied she was with Hanako Sachiko.

Unfortunately, all of tonight's plans fell through. Enma Ai could no longer ride on Hanako Sachiko's head and could only continue to tuck her tail between her legs, remaining a ghost in the shadows.

After a short while, Enma Ai finally showed a satisfied smile: "OK, the investigation is complete."

Kikuko Yamamura quickly stepped forward and asked, "How strong is she?"

Enma Ai said somewhat uncertainly, "Very strong, probably as powerful as the first two divine messengers combined?"

Kikuko Yamamura was clearly dissatisfied with this answer: "What? You're not even sure?"

Enma Ai could only smile wryly: "I can't be sure. The distance is too far. Unless I get closer, my life will be in danger."

Kikuko Yamamura smiled wryly along with Ai Enma and sighed, "Well, that's all we can do then. It's almost dawn, let's see another time. Let's go."

And so, Kikuko Yamamura and Ai Enma disappeared into the crimson night.

It is worth noting that Kikuko Yamamura's statement to Ai Enma that "it's almost dawn" was an exaggeration. Her intention was to persuade Ai to leave the scene quickly. In reality, midnight was far from over.

Hanako, who had just fled in disarray, is currently in one shadow, but has successfully met Sachiko, who is in another shadow.

Chapter 149 Information about Hanako

As soon as they met, Hanako complained to Sachiko Shinozaki, "Damn it, what was that monster all about?!"

It's quite comical that the Demon King actually called the shikigami "monsters," a statement that even Hanako herself couldn't help but laugh at.

Sachiko shook her head and said, "I'm not sure. That guy might be the so-called Supreme God that those divine messengers refer to."

However, Hanako disagreed: "It shouldn't be. If their god is only capable of this, we still have a chance of winning."

Then, Hanako laughed and said, "In comparison, our God is capable of turning the world upside down with a wave of his hand; he is omnipotent."

Shinozaki Sachiko had no objection to Hanako's statement, because she herself praised the god in the same way.
