Tokyo: I am the Lord of All Demons!

Shimizu Suzune remained silent for a moment. Although Morita Jun harbored fear of Kisaragi Station and might have been prejudiced, it was a fact that the one-legged old man was stronger than before.

It seems we must take this seriously.

That being said, the destruction of Kisaragi Station was not a personal commission, so there was no monetary reward after it was done. Shimizu Suzune's purpose was not for money; she was acting in the name of the Aragami and the Shinto Office to restore public order for the citizens.

Society is on the verge of a standstill, and this has been going on for many days. There are no trains or subways running at night, causing serious inconvenience to people's travel. Private cars are everywhere, causing widespread traffic jams in Tokyo.

The one-legged old man at Kisaragi Station didn't launch a new attack for a long time. Instead, he moved around quickly and mysteriously, sometimes appearing on the ceiling and sometimes flashing on the ground.

Sometimes, he would even sneak up to within a few steps of the divine messengers, trying to frighten them, but he never launched a real attack.

After weighing the pros and cons, Shimizu Suzune decided, "It seems this ghost is quite timid. How about we try other methods, such as directly attacking the scene with force, and see if we can destroy it?"

“Then let me give it a try.” Jun Morita also thought it was a good idea. She turned around and summoned “Raikiri”.

This is a long-handled weapon, often used by women in ancient Japan for self-defense. However, its blade is not sharpened; its power comes from the divine power infused within it, used to slay demons and monsters. It might not cause much harm to ordinary people, but it is a deadly weapon against spirits.

Just as its name "Raikiri" suggests, the moment this naginata was summoned, a thunderbolt exploded in Jun Morita's hand, and then the lightning was directed into the ground. At the same time that the lightning dissipated, the divine messenger held a purple naginata in his hand.

Then, Jun Morita held the Raikiri in both hands and faced the one-legged old man, but he then ran away.

Just as she was about to swing her sword, Shimizu Suzune and Fujita Mino summoned their divine weapons to protect her.

"...You sewer rat who only knows how to run away!" Jun Morita turned his head again and found the one-legged old man's hiding place. Ignoring whether the old man had escaped or where he had run to, Jun Morita shouted sharply, "I'll use this Raikiri to finish you off!"

Then, Jun Morita wielded the Raikiri and slashed it fiercely into the Kisaragi Station scene, unleashing a burst of violent lightning.

The next second, the scene at Kisaragi Station was like a wallpaper, with a hole torn in it by lightning!

Through that crack, another completely different world is clearly visible—that is very likely the real world!

Seeing that the attack had worked, Jun Morita and the other two divine messengers breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the scene at Kisaragi Station could be completely destroyed, the "myth" of this urban legend would naturally be shattered.

To be honest, Shimizu Suzune and Fujita Mino are both itching to take action and take down Kisaragi Station together.

But they all considered that this place used to be Jun Morita's home ground, where she had been assaulted, so now, she should personally end this urban legend.

Before they could think any further, Jun Morita had already swung his knife a second time, tearing open a second rift in the Kisaragi Station scene.

At this point, the one-legged old man seemed to be getting restless. He silently flew to the top of Morita Jun's head, poised to strike from an extremely tricky angle, ready to deliver a fatal blow.

From the moment the enemy flew overhead, Jun Morita had already caught sight of the one-legged old man's movements, so when the enemy flew overhead, Jun Morita also raised his head, preparing to strike him.

Seeing that things were not going well, the one-legged old man transformed into a phantom and fled to the side the instant Morita Jun noticed him.

But Jun Morita showed no mercy, and she swung her knife again at the Kisaragi Station scene!

This third cut was rather ruthless.

The scene at Kisaragi Station suddenly became precarious, with the lights flickering wildly and the entire space becoming extremely unstable.

Suddenly, the sound of bagpipes came from afar.

At this critical moment, the entire space suddenly twisted! The originally solid tracks and platforms merged and flipped like liquid, instantly exchanging positions.

In the blink of an eye, the three divine messengers who were standing on the platform were now on the cold railway tracks.

Clearly, Kisaragi Station intended to use this speeding train to completely crush them.

Accompanied by a powerful gust of air, the train sped out of the tunnel, showing no sign of stopping.

So what exactly is Jun Morita doing right now? She's completely caught off guard by this sudden situation and is still basking in the brief advantage she gained from tearing the scene apart.

Before she could make a move, Fujita Mino decisively summoned the divine weapon, the Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi, and gently slashed it towards the train.

The entire Kisaragi Station scene, including the train, was directly cleaved in two by the Kusanagi Sword. With a piercing, tearing sound like tearing cloth, the Kisaragi Station scene violently distorted and flickered, like a screen with a poor signal.

The next moment, the crumbling Kisaragi Station collapsed to both sides like a building about to fall, revealing the real world.

The surroundings became peaceful.

Jun Morita and Suzune Shimizu didn't even realize what had just happened.

Jun Morita turned around, glancing at Suzune Shimizu with lingering fear, then pointed at Mino Fujita and said, "...She's so powerful, why didn't she make a move sooner?"

Jun Morita was just in the middle of a fierce battle with the one-legged old man when he suddenly stopped and disappeared, which surprised her greatly.

Actually, Shimizu Suzune was also a little surprised. She was about to go up and destroy the train herself, but at this critical moment, Fujita Mino took the initiative!

Moreover, once it strikes, it unleashes a terrifying power capable of destroying the entire scene!

It seems the High God still favors Fujita Mino more; otherwise, why would he bestow such a powerful divine artifact upon her instead of giving it to me, Shimizu Suzune…

Of course, Shimizu Suzune wasn't jealous; she wasn't that kind of person. She just had some doubts in her heart. After all, in a sense, she was the "official wife" because she ranked first among the divine messengers.

In comparison, Fujita Mino and Morita Jun can only be considered "side concubines".

Seeing the astonished Shimizu Suzune and Morita Jun, Fujita Mino simply smiled and quickly sheathed the Ama-no-Murakumo sword.

What happened next was very simple: Jun Morita took out her phone and confirmed their location.

Their current location is confirmed to be about ten meters northwest of the National Assembly Building.

It seems that being caught up in Kisaragi Station does indeed cause a certain shift in one's real-world location.

After destroying Kisaragi Station, and since it was already late at night, the three divine messengers returned to the Shinto Hall and went back to rest.

On the other hand, regarding the destruction of Kisaragi Station, Makoto Araki, who witnessed the entire event, was completely unmoved.

For Makoto Araki, Kisaragi Station, a scene that yielded absolutely no profit, had long been something that was neither worth keeping nor worth discarding.

Now that he has become a god, the scene at Kisaragi Station can no longer bring him any emotional value.

In comparison, female ghosts like Kikuko and Hanako are at least pretty, and can at least be pleasing to the eye.

What, you mean the Slit-Mouthed Woman?

forget it.

It's really not good-looking.

Araki Makoto didn't want to see her at all. With his ghostly abilities, disguising himself shouldn't be difficult for him. Why didn't he take better care of himself?

That said, after becoming a god, Makoto Araki hasn't been in contact with these female ghosts for a long time, and he doesn't know how they are doing now.

Araki Makoto used his divine power to conjure several mirror-like windows, which he began to monitor the female ghosts. The first one he monitored was, of course, Kikuko Yamamura.

This girl seems to have completely stopped being a ghost. She now works at a grocery store and has made quite a few friends. It seems she has fully integrated into human life and is living a very fulfilling life.

Judging from all indications, Kikuko Yamamura has no intention of getting involved in the conflict between the messengers of the gods and the spirits, but rather wants to quietly live as a "human".

After reading about Kikuko Yamamura, we have to look at the Slit-Mouthed Woman. This woman has now left Tokyo and gone to Hokkaido in northern Japan to commit evil deeds and kill several people.

Because she ran too far, the Shinto Office and several divine messengers could no longer control her, and the local authorities were also helpless against her. They even dispatched a mobile unit for her, but of course, the result was the same.

The local authorities even deployed mobile units, but neither cold nor hot weapons could effectively kill her; instead, they only further enraged her and provoked even fiercer retaliation.

As the Slit-Mouthed Woman wreaks havoc in Hokkaido, Makoto Araki speculates that the Shinto Office's messengers will likely set off within days to completely eradicate her.

At that time, the Shinto Hall will be able to gain some fame and consolidate Shinto's position.

In short, let's wait and see!

And now there is another female ghost being monitored by Makoto Araki. That female ghost's name is Hanako, and she lives in the urban legend of "Hanako in the Toilet".

Hanako, the spirit from the legend of "Hanako in the Toilet," has now ascended to become a true Demon King! Before this, she was still accumulating power, but now, her demonic power is enough to rival that of a Demon King!

To be honest, Makoto Araki secretly hoped that the battle between the divine messenger and the demon king would break out, wanting to see just how much chaos they would stir up in Tokyo.

Besides the female ghosts mentioned above, Makoto Araki actually has many other female ghosts and ordinary ghosts under his command, but he is not familiar with them.

Those spirits were beings that naturally arose from his divinity from the day he became a god. Although they all revered him as a supreme god, it was like a celebrity relationship: they knew Makoto Araki, but Makoto Araki didn't know them.

So the current situation is that if they don't contact him, Makoto Araki doesn't know who to contact first, so this is the only option.

Getting back to the main point, Shinto Hall has now achieved another new success: destroying Kisaragi Station and liberating all the major stations. They should be able to make a name for themselves now, right?

After becoming a god, Makoto Araki no longer uses mobile phones or computers, so he doesn't know what the online opinion is like.

There should be some reaction, so Makoto Araki decided to go to the Shinto Hall to check on the progress of the "Ara Shrine" construction.

He knew the importance of incense offerings and prayers to him. Without sufficient offerings, his path to godhood in Japan would be in vain.

Chapter 116 Chaos

The next day.

Early in the morning, Shimizu Suzune returned to the Shinto Hall and, together with the hall's director, Kishimoto Shingo, spearheaded a press conference regarding the "complete destruction of the Kisaragi Station scene."

It was exactly 9:00 AM when Kishimoto Shingo was the first to walk out of the Shinto Hall, followed by Shimizu Suzune, Fujita Mino, and Morita Jun, the three divine messengers.

Reporters who had been waiting at the entrance rushed forward, microphones almost shoved into Kishimoto Shingo's mouth, a scene exactly like that at the Prime Minister's residence.

The difference is that the power in Shinto has now been completely transferred from the Prime Minister's Office to the Shinto Agency, and the prestige of Kishimoto Shingo's official position continues to rise.

The first person to ask Kishimoto Shingo a question was a long-haired woman with glasses: "Director, we are from Sunshine TV. There are rumors online that the Shinto Agency dispatched divine messengers last night and caused a devastating attack on Kisaragi Station. Is this true?"

"Ahem..." Kishimoto Shingo cleared his throat and said in a pretentious manner, "First of all, thank you to the citizens for their support of our Shinto Agency's work."

"Secondly, regarding the rumors you raised about the destruction of Kisaragi Station, I need to clarify that this is not a rumor."

"On the contrary, it is true that Kisaragi Station has been destroyed, and from now on, Tokyo's public transportation will gradually resume nighttime operations..."

Before Kishimoto Shingo could finish speaking, a round of applause broke out from the audience, with reporters, police officers, and the three divine messengers behind him joining in the applause.

At this moment, another long-haired man stepped forward and shoved the microphone directly at us, saying:

"Chief, we are from Asahi TV. As everyone knows, our citizens have been living in fear and anxiety under the shadow of Kisaragi Station for a long time. Today you say that Kisaragi Station has been destroyed, but words are not enough. Can you show us the corresponding evidence? Otherwise, it will be difficult to convince the public!"

Kishimoto Shingo seemed caught off guard by the long-haired man's unexpected question. He cleared his throat again and replied perfunctorily, "The relevant evidence will be officially released after it has been compiled. At that time, interested citizens can apply at the Shinto Office window."

He had barely finished speaking when another man in a suit handed him the microphone and asked:

"Director, how do you evaluate the attack on the Prime Minister's Office by the Slit-Mouthed Woman two weeks ago? Now that the Kisaragi Station has been eradicated, will the plan to eliminate the Slit-Mouthed Woman follow suit?"

Upon hearing this, Kishimoto Shingo nodded and said solemnly, "We are still tracking the Slit-Mouthed Woman. Once we find her trail, we will formulate a corresponding elimination plan. Please rest assured, citizens..."

Before he could finish speaking, another microphone squeezed through the crowd: "Director Kishimoto, are you aware that the Slit-Mouthed Woman has fled to Hokkaido?!"

To this question, Kishimoto Shingo was momentarily at a loss for words, for he truly did not know that the Slit-Mouthed Woman had fled to Hokkaido.

Just as Kishimoto Shingo was wondering how to answer this person's question, another microphone was handed to him:

"Director, when will you be setting up a branch office in Kyoto? The citizens of Kyoto are currently being ravaged by demons, and we beg you to send a divine messenger to save us!"

"We're from Nagoya too! Director, you can't just stand by and watch us die!"
