Tokyo: I am the Lord of All Demons!

Is there a subway station nearby?

After boarding the train, Shimizu Suzune opened the map on her phone, wanting to see exactly where the nearest subway station was.

The result was inaccurate positioning!

This is clearly a plain, but the location shows it as being at sea!

"Huh? Is my phone broken?" Shimizu Rinne turned airplane mode on and off several times, even restarting it, but the result was still the same.

"Then how am I supposed to get back?"

Shimizu Suzune's face darkened. She stuck her head out of the window, looking at the road she had come from and the mountain road, and couldn't help but feel troubled.

But worse than not being able to find her way was that Shimizu Suzune felt something getting closer and closer to her.

Take a closer look.

It turned out to be a train station.

It appeared out of the car window without warning, like a mirage!

……

……

On the mountain.

After Shimizu Rinne descended the mountain, Araki Makoto emerged from the abandoned shrine, accompanied by two little Daruma dolls, Gozen Daruma and Hime Daruma.

Araki Makoto instructed Hime Daruma, "Go and see if there's anything else she hasn't finished packing, and help her pack it up."

Ji Damo was very efficient. After receiving the order, he began to arrange the furniture, trying to make it as close as possible to the original apartment style.

As he watched Hime Daruma begin to set up, Makoto Araki also began to think about where to place the Heavenly God Academy and the Slit-Mouthed Woman in order to obtain the greatest benefit with the least cost.

Firstly, it is known that, according to official Japanese statistics, the majority of Japan's population is concentrated in Tokyo, so if one wants to gain more benefits, Tokyo is naturally the first choice.

It's time to let Tokyo descend into chaos!

Chapter 53 55AM (First Update)

"Kisaragi Station," Shimizu Suzune read out the name of the station in front of her.

She stared at the station name for a few seconds, confirming it was correct, and murmured, "I remember seeing this station name on 2ch; a lady went missing here..."

"But that woman's fate was to be abducted by people at the station, then taken to the mountains and killed..."

Shimizu Suzune suddenly realized that there was a mountain right behind her, and it was near Kisaragi Station!

She turned around and confirmed that it was a mountain.

Kisaragi Station has been confirmed.

"So, I'm now caught up in this urban legend?" Shimizu Suzune was terrified, extremely terrified. She was afraid she would end up like that woman.

But then again, Shimizu Suzune was determined to become a true shrine maiden, to reveal the truth to the world, and to eliminate all the evil spirits and monsters in the world.

For this reason, she even signed a contract with a mysterious man, becoming his so-called "divine messenger".

Since we've already "sold ourselves out," we have no choice but to go for it and not back down!

"Anyway, I'd better think about how to get out of this godforsaken place..." Shimizu Suzune sighed helplessly, clutching the gold foil coin tightly as she walked towards the station.

The station's turnstiles were always open, so you could walk right in, but there wasn't a single person in the station. The air in the entire station was as still as death, eerily quiet.

After entering the station, Shimizu Suzune immediately noticed the platform's display screen, which only showed the current time and did not display train schedules.

Current time: 04:55 AM.

Shimizu Rin took out her phone and confirmed that the station time and the phone time were exactly the same, meaning that the set of numbers on the screen should not have any special meaning.

Shimizu Suzune walked to the platform. To the left of the platform was a tunnel, and to the right was a track extending towards the mountain. No matter which way she looked, it was unfathomable.

Shimizu Suzune only glanced at it a few times before starting to wander around the platform, feeling that she needed to find something to put her mind at ease.

Whether human or ghost.

Let's get something!

As Shimizu Rinne was thinking this, she suddenly heard the sound of a taiko drum being struck, and the sound was getting closer and closer.

According to the conventions of ghost stories, looking back at this moment would be suicidal, and one would definitely not escape.

However, Shimizu Suzune always felt that she was no longer an ordinary person, but a divine messenger capable of carrying out the will of the gods, and that she could not back down just because this place was a little scary.

She turned around abruptly, simultaneously waving the gold foil coin forward, unsurprisingly hitting no one or anything.

What she saw was an elderly man walking towards her, but he seemed to be missing a leg and could only walk with a limp using a cane.

Shimizu Suzune couldn't see his face, only that it was covered by a shadow, like dark clouds on a rainy day, obscuring the sky.

However, the old man seemed to have no intention of fighting Shimizu Suzune. He just sighed, turned around, and ran away, quickly disappearing from Shimizu Suzune's sight.

No, you old geezer, aren't you missing a leg? How can you still run so fast!

Shimizu Suzune wanted to chase after them, but she couldn't. She found that the surrounding scenery began to collapse and dissipate, and the entire station collapsed instantly, like a dangerous building in the epicenter of an earthquake.

The ceiling, pillars, and tracks were all ripped up by this "shock" and then destroyed together.

Seeing this, Shimizu Suzune squatted down, covering her head to minimize the damage from the "earthquake".

It soon quieted down.

When Shimizu Suzune looked up, she realized that she could no longer see the old man or the platform. She was no longer at Kisaragi Station; she was now in a mass grave.

His sports car was currently parked in front of a grave, its rims covered in yellow mud, making it look particularly eerie.

At this point, Shimizu Suzune was a little confused. Were those things that had just appeared real or hallucinations?

She's more inclined to believe this was a real scene, but the timing just happened to be 5 a.m., so the urban legend faded away; otherwise, she and the other party would definitely have had a fierce battle.

Shimizu Suzune was somewhat disappointed. If she had started her live stream earlier, she could have made the facts of what happened at Kisaragi Station public. Unfortunately, there were no "ifs".

She checked her phone's location and confirmed that the mass grave in front of her was located in a village on the outskirts of Tokyo. It would take about an hour to get from here to downtown Tokyo, roughly the same time it took her to get there.

For some reason, Shimizu Suzune felt a little tired. She went back to her car to rest for a while before driving back to Tokyo.

Along the way, Shimizu Rin witnessed a miracle—the blood moon hanging in the sky gradually sank in the west, and in its place, a blood-red sun was rising from the horizon.

Shimizu Suzune parked her car by the roadside, got out, and stood there gazing at the moon, muttering to herself, "This blood moon feels strange..."

Indeed, this blood moon was very strange. It was not similar to a normal moon. It didn't look like it was hanging in the sky; it looked more like it was hanging above some part of Tokyo.

"Could it be that there are urban legends playing tricks on people in Tokyo too?" Shimizu Suzune quickly deduced the problem.

Unfortunately, this blood moon seemed to be about to set, and Shimizu Suzune was unable to return to Tokyo before it disappeared, so she couldn't find any clues.

Back in Tokyo, it was past six in the morning. The blood moon had indeed disappeared, replaced by a warm red sun rising slowly. The lower-ranking staff at the shrine had already begun sweeping up the fallen leaves.

Shimizu Suzune originally planned to go to sleep as soon as she got back to the shrine, but then she remembered that there was a poor kitten crying for food.

With no other option, she parked her car in the parking lot, passed by the cafeteria, and waited until it opened at 7:00 AM to bring the cat some dried fish before going back to her dorm to sleep.

As for her breakfast, she decided not to eat it for now, as it would make it difficult for her to sleep.

Anyway, goodnight.

Just as Shimizu Suzune lay down on the bed and fell asleep, at the same time, Yamamura Kikuko, who was sitting slumped under a bridge, had completed her transformation from a high-level urban legend to a demon king.

Fortunately, she no longer has anyone to take revenge on, otherwise she could have made the entire city of Tokyo pay for her death with a single wave of her arm!

Kikuko Yamamura got up, but having lost both her goal of revenge and her purpose in life, she was momentarily at a loss as to which direction to go. Her mind was spinning, and she felt as if she had lost her soul.

In short, let's look to the future.

Chapter 54 55 PM (Second Update)

After leaving the Kisaragi Station scene, Makoto Araki returned to the abandoned shrine. Since Daruma had already tidied up his room in the shrine, he was able to fall asleep at almost the same time as Suzune Shimizu.

The two woke up around the same time, around 4 p.m.

The moment he woke up, Makoto Araki released the Slit-Mouthed Woman, the contents of "God, why have you abandoned me?", this time choosing Chiyoda in Tokyo as the location.

Just like other advanced urban legends that possess independent perspectives or special functions, the Slit-Mouthed Woman also had a brand new panel presented to Makoto Araki after she was created.

After being released, the Slit-Mouthed Woman did not cause any trouble immediately. Instead, she stood under a tree, seemingly lost in thought.

Forget it, it doesn't matter.

Makoto Araki then opened "Heavenly God School," placing this haunted school on a middle school in Nakano Ward, thus completing the release of two urban legends.

For a long time, Makoto Araki had lived a life without sunlight, like a "demon" in the sewers. He had never known what time, date, or weekdays were. Today was the first time in his life that he had looked at his phone to find out what day of the week it was.

What a coincidence, today is Sunday.

Even if it weren't Sunday, "Tenjin School" probably wouldn't be able to come up with anything special. Japanese middle schools don't have evening self-study sessions; students go home after school.

So today's focus is actually on watching the Slit-Mouthed Woman's performance. I should wash my face and brush my teeth early to refresh myself and watch the Slit-Mouthed Woman's show tonight.

As before, Makoto Araki did not wash his face and brush his teeth himself. There was no running water in this remote mountain place, so he had to ask Daruma to find a river for him to wash his face and brush his teeth.

After settling everything down, Makoto Araki was ready to stir things up. The first thing he wanted to do was, of course, to command the spiders to create ordinary ghosts in various night markets to scare people and earn more "fear".

The second thing to do, of course, is to keep an eye on the Slit-Mouthed Woman and see how much profit she can actually bring.

The last thing to do, of course, is to see Shimizu Suzune. She should have a show tonight, right?

Indeed, having been trapped in Kisaragi Station last night and even witnessed the blood moon, Shimizu Suzune's thirst for knowledge was at its peak, and she certainly had something planned for the evening.

Start broadcasting!

She no longer faces any obstacles in starting her broadcasts.

The person who previously prevented her from starting her broadcast is currently undergoing emergency treatment and is reportedly still in critical condition.

Actually, Shimizu Suzune wanted to visit the police officer to see if he had anything to say, such as how it felt to be controlled by a monster, and whether he had any skills to break free from the monster's mental control.

But she quickly dismissed the idea, because those "monsters" in the apartment building seemed to be her god's "guards"? Shimizu Suzune wasn't quite sure what the black Daruma's duty was, but in any case, it was to protect him.

Yamiyama Shrine.

Girls' dormitory.

Shimizu Suzune stood by the window, looking at the deepening night outside, feeling somewhat lost.
