Tokyo: I am the Lord of All Demons!

Looking at the disheveled girl who had been teleported by Kagura Mairin, Araki Makoto was unsure whether to laugh at her or make fun of her.

"Young lady, you clearly have the ability to defeat the enemy, so why lay down your weapon?"

A compassionate, sacred voice, tinged with pity and reproach, rang out before Shimizu Suzune, startling her so much that she fell to her knees with a thud, prostrating herself on the ground.

She said, "The cost of using the Yamato is too great, which frightens Rin! Rin dares not use it!"

She lied.

She had long suspected that the High God might be watching her all the time, otherwise why would he summon her so coincidentally every time? So she decided to test him, and to her surprise, she was actually summoned by him.

Araki Makoto was unaware of Shimizu Suzune's ulterior motives, but after hearing her latest explanation, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and he still questioned her, "No matter how great the price, is it greater than your life?"

The girl kept her head down and quickly explained, "Rinne wouldn't dare, but Rinne is already short enough. If she were to lose a few more centimeters... Rinne would no longer have the courage to face the High God!"

Oh well, she really is a woman.

Even on the verge of death, they're still thinking about beauty!

That's true. If Shimizu Suzune uses the Enma sword too many times and depletes her height, Araki Makoto might not even want her as his "girlfriend."

This is a fact.

Heart of beauty in everyone.

Makoto Araki would never want to face a woman who is like a stone pillar and only reaches his waist every day!

However, Makoto Araki did not intend to bring the matter to a close, and still said in a questioning tone: "Using the Enma sword does not necessarily require height as a price; you can bleed."

Shimizu Suzune looked up, shook her head, and said incredulously, "Ah... can it be like this... I didn't know... Goddess, could you please enlighten me?"

The other party coughs.

Actually, Makoto Araki didn't know either; that's what the system panel said, and that's just what he said.

Shimizu Rinne didn't intend to dwell on the matter and quickly kowtowed to express her gratitude: "Thank you, Lord God, for saving me! Rinne is ashamed; it's all Rinne's fault for causing you trouble!"

Shimizu Suzune knelt on the ground like a child who had done something wrong, not daring to lift her face.

Araki Makoto didn't seem to care, and said indifferently, "Oh, it's not your fault. You can only blame the enemy for being too strong."

The enemy is indeed very strong.

Makoto Araki witnessed it with his own eyes—

Even though Fujita Mino and Shimizu Suzune made no mistakes and had excellent teamwork, they were still completely outmatched by Shinozaki Sachiko. Of course, it's unfair to place all the blame on Shimizu Suzune.

After this battle, Makoto Araki made a preliminary assessment of the abilities of the Heavenly Academy, which required 20,000 Fears to acquire, and felt that it could defeat a combination of Shimizu Suzune and Fujita Mino at double the strength.

As for the Slit-Mouthed Woman and Kikuko Yamamura, there is currently limited data, and their combat strength cannot be determined yet.

Judging from previous battles, the Exorcising Beans could injure Kikuko Yamamura, but only cause minor burns and could not inflict any real damage on her.

Chapter 73 The Only God

That said, Shimizu Suzune was taken away by her god, but Fujita Mino, who stayed at the Heavenly God Academy, wasn't so lucky. She couldn't even withstand a few moves from Shinozaki Sachiko before being defeated.

Fujita Mino is now being held by countless demonic hands, which have grabbed her hands and feet and bound her body, making her look like she's been bound in a tortoise shell style, and she's being hung up.

Shinozaki Sachiko stepped forward, looked at Fujita Mino hanging there, and sighed, "Fujita-san, why did you betray me?"

Even in this predicament, Fujita Mino still stubbornly insisted, "What betrayal? I am a human being, and I am inherently at odds with a demon like you."

Looking at her defiant demeanor, Sachiko Shinozaki laughed and said, "Fujita-san, are you really not afraid of death?"

Fujita Mino tilted her head to one side and said disdainfully, "You won't kill me. If you wanted to, you would have done it already. Why wait until now?"

Indeed, Shinozaki Sachiko doesn't want to kill Fujita Mino right now. Relatively speaking, she has a stronger personality, and if she were to kill her like this, there would be much less fun in their daily lives.

As mentioned earlier, Sachiko Shinozaki is the true form of the Heavenly God Academy. Because of her arrival, the teachers and students there are all lifeless and their minds and bodies are completely controlled.

For some reason, Fujita Mino was not controlled by Shinozaki Sachiko, and the influence she received was minimal. Therefore, in Shinozaki Sachiko's eyes, this Fujita Mino was a very special "plaything" and she wanted to keep her trapped in the school forever.

However, Sachiko Shinozaki was still the school's "Demon King," and seeing that she couldn't control Mino Fujita, her face turned extremely ugly. She threatened, "I know you're not afraid of death, but have you thought about your old father at home?"

Mino Fujita: "..."

Nothing new; this isn't the first time Sachiko Shinozaki has threatened her father, which seems to suggest that she's run out of options.

So, Fujita Mino said irritably, "Are you going to put me down or not?"

Sachiko Shinozaki frowned and said unhappily, "Fujita-san, how dare you speak to the Demon King like that! I am the Demon King! The souls of all the teachers and students in this school are under my control!"

Fujita Mino thought for a moment and joked, "If you don't put me down, I'm going to call my god!"

Seeing that Fujita Mino didn't seem afraid at all, Shinozaki Sachiko frowned and asked, "Who is your god?"

It is worth mentioning that Shinozaki Sachiko of the Heavenly God Academy, a high-level urban legend created by Makoto Araki, was of course aware of "his" existence and revered him as the "Lord of a Hundred Demons".

However, Sachiko Shinozaki had never heard of anything like "gods" in this world.

However, since Fujita Mino possesses the ability to fight ghosts, it means that she has someone behind her, and perhaps there really is a "god".

In order to obtain crucial information for the "Lord of a Hundred Demons," Sachiko Shinozaki couldn't help but feel curious.

"Don't ask who he is, but I know you can't afford to mess with him. So, are you going to put me down or I'm going to scream?"

As Fujita Mino spoke, she struggled a little, but it was no use. There were too many demonic hands and the strength was too high, so she couldn't exert any force at all!

Shinozaki Sachiko dismissed Fujita Mino's threats with disdain, saying, "Tch, I'm going to class. You can hang here and scream all you want. I don't believe your god can break into my Heavenly God School."

After saying that, she left the girls' restroom on the playground without looking back, leaving Fujita Mino hanging there alone.

Shinozaki Sachiko's departure doesn't mean she's stopped monitoring the place. She *is* the school itself; she can see every corner and arrive at it instantly.

Watching Sachiko Shinozaki leave, Mino Fujita felt a little disappointed. She struggled to get down again, but it was no use.

Calling upon the Supreme God?

However, Fujita Mino considered herself a very stubborn woman and would never admit defeat so easily.

Wait for Shimizu Suzune? Wait for her to come and rescue me? That might be the best way, but where is she?

Forget it, let's wait a bit longer!

While Fujita Mino was still suffering, Shimizu Suzune, who had been expelled from the Heavenly God Academy at a young age, was still communicating with her god.

Abandoned shrine.

When the two fell silent again, Shimizu Suzune suddenly thought of something and immediately said to God, "Kami-sama! There's something I'm not sure if I should say!"

“Go ahead and speak,” Araki Makoto replied nonchalantly, his face still obscured by a holy light, so the girl couldn’t see his face.

Shimizu Suzune cried out, "Your divine messenger, Fujita Mino, is in mortal danger! I beg you to save her life!"

Upon hearing this, Makoto Araki already knew the answer in his heart. He knew that Tenjin Academy was very strong, and he also knew that Mino Fujita was currently trapped in the girls' restroom on the playground.

Shinozaki Sachiko of Tenjin Academy is a high-level urban legend. Araki Makoto possesses the same demon king perspective as Shinozaki Sachiko, and can see everything that happens at Tenjin Academy, including the stone golem chasing Shimizu Suzune and the battle between the girl and the female demon in the girls' restroom.

In the Demon King's view, Fujita Mino had given up struggling and was just hanging there dumbly, looking completely lost.

But unlike Shimizu Suzune, she didn't call on her god for help; she's a very strong child!

Shimizu Suzune stared longingly at the holy light on Araki Makoto's face. Araki Makoto, feeling his composure waning, waved his hand and said:

"Alright, alright, I'll handle Fujita Mino's matter. I have more important things for you to deal with now. Go back to your shrine and confess to your father."

"...Confess?" Shimizu Suzune was a little confused.

Araki Makoto pondered for a moment and said, "The Japanese government will soon announce that there are ghosts in reality. At that time, public opinion around the world may change. I need you to come out and appease everyone's panic in the name of the Yomiyama Shrine's ability to save the world."

"In the name of Yomiyama Shrine? Then you are the god of 'Yomiyama'?" Shimizu Suzune asked somewhat uncertainly.

Upon hearing this, Makoto Araki fell silent. He had only ever thought about being the "Lord of a Hundred Demons," but he had never considered what kind of "god" he should be.

King of the Gods?

Father of the gods?

This seems a bit too arrogant. Makoto Araki is not that kind of person; he believes he doesn't deserve that title.

So here's the problem: how do you tell Shimizu Suzune? This really stumped Makoto Araki, who's terrible at coming up with names!

The "god" remained silent, but Shimizu Suzune's heart was churning!

It was right of God not to answer her.

Before this, the so-called "gods" that Shimizu Suzune knew from books and anime were just human interpretations of gods.

God is just God!

He is the only God!

Shimizu Suzune finally understood!

Chapter 74 The Enemy is Too Strong

Araki Makoto didn't intend to say much to Shimizu Suzune, and then teleported her to a safe area, letting her return to the shrine on her own to build an army of priests capable of fighting off evil spirits.

After that, Makoto Araki turned his attention to Tenjin Academy and Mino Fujita. Mino Fujita is still hanging in the women's restroom and is being monitored by Sachiko Shinozaki 24 hours a day.

Araki Makoto couldn't bear to watch any longer. He thought it wasn't right for the little girl to be tortured by the female ghost like this, so he took out Kagura's bell and prepared to summon her.

Saving one person is saving, saving two people is also saving, so since we've already started, we might as well go all the way!

It must be said that the Kagura Dance Bell is truly a magical artifact. When it was rung, Fujita Mino, who was far away at Tenjin Academy, was awakened as if she had seen the sun.

As the holy light gradually enveloped Fujita Mino's body, her cheap strength crumbled instantly, and she cried out to the holy light like a little girl, "Kami-sama!"

Then, Fujita Mino could clearly feel all the restraints on her body being released, and she knelt on the ground, kneeling before her god.

at the same time.

Shinozaki Sachiko discovered that Fujita Mino had run away and rushed to the women's restroom next to the playground, only to find it in complete disarray.

His own "sons," those ghostly hands, were all brutally severed.

"What on earth is going on?" Shinozaki Sachiko couldn't understand what was happening. She had just used the eighty-one demon hands to bind Fujita Mino, precisely because she was worried that Shimizu Suzune might turn around and rescue her.

As a result, the eighty-one ghost hands were mercilessly and instantly killed.

Who did it?

Could it really have been done by their gods?
