Tokyo: I am the Lord of All Demons!

The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt, so she dialed the number of the First Divine Envoy, Shimizu Suzune, and told her everything.

After listening, the other person was silent for a few seconds before confirming, "You mean... Morita-san and Ishikawa got a life-size doll of Hanako-san?"

Speaking into the microphone, Fujita Mino said with some grievance, "Yes, I originally wanted to dissuade them, but seeing how they acted like they had won a trophy, I didn't know how to comment."

"Why is it difficult to give a proper evaluation?" came the question over the phone.

Fujita Mino responded weakly, "I'm worried it will affect our relationship."

The person on the other end of the phone said, "How could that be? Morita-san isn't that kind of person."

However, Fujita Mino still hesitated and said, "I still don't dare. Why don't you persuade them, Mizu-san?"

A voice on the other end of the phone, both laughing and angry, said, "Fine, fine, you little brat, you want me to be the bad guy, huh?"

Fujita Mino ignored Shimizu Suzune's teasing and instead asked, "How do you plan to deal with this?"

After thinking for a moment, the other party said, "It's past ten o'clock now, which is a bit too late. I probably won't get to the Shinto Hall until eleven o'clock. I think I'll deal with it tomorrow."

Fujita Mino was silent for a moment, then said, "Can't you make a phone call?"

On the other end of the phone, the person spoke fluently: "First, I'm afraid I can't explain it clearly over the phone. Second, from your description, they seem quite happy about getting the spoils, so we should avoid them for now."

"Alright, that's the only way." Fujita Mino said helplessly, but there was nothing she could do.

Despite being ranked second among the divine messengers and possessing top-tier combat power, Fujita Mino is preoccupied with her studies and doesn't manage affairs much. Currently, the Shinto Hall is run by Shimizu Suzune and Morita Jun.

Just as Fujita Mino thought they had run out of things to say and was about to hang up, Shimizu Suzune said on the other end of the line, "By the way, Fujita-chan."

Fujita Mino responded, "Hmm?"

The other party said, "I am very satisfied that you can report to me in a timely manner the things you cannot handle."

Fujita Mino: "Hmm."

The other person changed the subject: "However, I think you should prioritize your studies. Leave the exorcism work to your sisters."

Fujita Mino disagreed, saying, "Don't worry, you know my grades, they're steadily improving."

Then, Fujita Mino said, "I've hung up!"

Before Shimizu Rin could reply, Fujita Mino hung up the phone. She put down her phone, looked up at the night sky, and breathed in the fresh air.

It's been some time.

We still don't know where the Supreme God is or what he's doing.

Fujita Mino was so preoccupied with the god's stunning good looks that she couldn't concentrate on her studies, even during class.

As if in response to Fujita Mino's wish, a shooting star streaked across the sky. Fujita Mino quickly clasped her hands together, closed her eyes, and began to make a wish: "I hope that I and the High God can meet again soon."

She wasn't the only one making this wish; people in other parts of Tokyo were also making similar wishes.

But the people who made the wishes were not messengers of the gods, but female ghosts like Kikuko Yamamura and Sachiko Shinozaki.

It's been quite some time.

Since the Supreme God became a true deity, he has never summoned these female ghosts.

Some might ask, would a female ghost like Kikuko Yamamura, who has already integrated into the human world, also miss the god?

The answer is yes.

Because she integrated into human society, Kikuko Yamamura gained a deeper understanding of the harshness of human nature, yet also some of its beauty.

However, Kikuko Yamamura was never able to find a suitable partner, and the men in reality generally treated her as a casual fling.

Moreover, Kikuko Yamamura is a female ghost who is theoretically as old as heaven and earth; it would be too strange for her to fall in love with a human.

Humans and ghosts are on different paths.

Human lifespan is only a few decades, which may be just a moment for a long-lived species like Kikuko Yamamura.

As the shooting star passed by, Sachiko Shinozaki also missed others; she missed the High God and Mino Fujita.

Unfortunately, both of these wishes were rather extravagant. Due to her unique characteristics, Sachiko Shinozaki was basically confined to Nakano Ward School, also known as Tenjin School.

So, does Hanako want to?

Hanako didn't want to.

She knew that her whereabouts and the progress of the Ghost King's evolution were being watched by the Supreme God.

Because she wasn't progressing fast enough, she fled the women's restroom at the movie theater; she didn't want to engage in any battles before becoming the Demon King.

Chapter 125 is going to be available for purchase.

It will be available tomorrow.

There's not much to say. This is my first attempt at this type of subject matter, and the results were poor, marking a low point in my career.

But the ritual is still important. Also, as long as there are still people reading, I'll keep writing until it's finished. Thank you all for your support!

Chapter 126 Giant Doll

Midnight, Shinto Hall.

The life-size Hanako doll, which was brought back from the shopping mall and movie theater, was placed in the storeroom of the Shinto Hall.

The so-called storage room is exactly what it sounds like. Since the Shinto Hall was only recently established, it only stores some police equipment that is not very useful, such as batons and shields, which are kept with Hanako.

Time passed second by second.

The last office in the Shinto Hall that still had its lights on finally went out at midnight, plunging the entire organization into darkness.

With all the police inspectors off duty, the doors and windows of Shinto Hall were locked, and the last police car parked there drove away from the scene.

As the commotion in the Shinto Hall gradually subsided, the life-size Hanako doll in the storeroom, whether due to being misplaced or something else, suddenly tilted sideways, its lips and eyes curving into crescent moons.

After that, there was no further news.

……

……

Shimizu Suzune kept her word.

The next morning, she arrived at the Shinto Hall on time. Before that, she sent a message to Jun Morita: "Please come to my office as soon as you arrive at work."

After sending the message, Shimizu Suzune stood up without waiting for Morita Jun's reply, casually beckoned to a passing police inspector, and asked, "Inspector, do you know where the Hanako doll we brought back last night is?"

"It's in the storage room." The helpful inspector pointed in the direction of the storage room, then brushed past Shimizu Suzune.

"Okay, I got it." After saying that, Shimizu Suzune walked into the depths of the Shinto Hall without looking back.

The storeroom was located at almost the deepest part of the Shinto Hall, but the entire building itself was not very large. After walking for more than ten meters, Shimizu Suzune arrived at the door of the storeroom.

To Shimizu Suzune's surprise, the door to the storage room was not locked; instead, it was ajar, allowing a clear view of what was inside.

The first thing Shimizu Suzune saw was a shoe peeking out from under the door. It was a pair of women's round-toed leather shoes, commonly seen in girls' high schools, and Hanako was that girls' high school student.

Upon seeing this scene, Shimizu Suzune's first reaction wasn't horror, but rather to complain: "What's going on? How can these people be so careless? They didn't even put their feet down properly."

Then, she reached out and opened the door to the storage room, and at the same time, kicked Hanako's foot, trying to put it back in place.

Unexpectedly, a sound of pain rang out from right in front of Shimizu Suzune: "Ah~"

At first, Shimizu Suzune even wondered if she was hallucinating because she hadn't slept well last night thinking about Morita Jun's messy affairs.

The next moment, she immediately turned her attention to Hanako's life-size doll, observing whether there was anything unusual about it.

On the surface, nothing seemed amiss. The doll lay motionless on the ground, like a real corpse.

In Shimizu Suzune's understanding, the word "corpse" had transcended its literal meaning; she defined it as a ghost about to launch an attack...

Sure enough, when Shimizu Rin took two steps back, Hanako's doll turned its head and grinned.

"Security..." Shimizu Suzune hesitated, then quickly corrected herself, "Oh no, not security, just a few people!"

As she called for help, Shimizu Suzune simultaneously summoned a white blade in her hand, ready to counterattack Hanako-san at any moment.

Hanako-san did not immediately attack Shimizu Suzune. Instead, she slowly stood up in front of her, her movements stiff and robotic.

Due to Shimizu Suzune's call, two or three police inspectors have come to provide support, along with Morita Jun, who had just started his shift.

Upon seeing Hanako's life-size doll stand up, and combining this with the text message she received on the way, Jun Morita immediately understood the whole story.

She immediately conjured her divine weapon, Raikiri, stepped forward, and without saying a word, slashed at Hanako-san, firing the "first shot" in the fight against the demon.

No one, including Shimizu Suzune, expected Morita Jun to make such a move, and they could only hurriedly retreat to avoid being hurt by her lightning-cutting edge.

Raikiri's lightning bolts, like snakes, devoured Hanako's doll, but the doll was no pushover; it immediately took flight and hung upside down above the storage room.

"Boom!"

It was quite a while before the sound of Raikiri's slashing was heard, and by then, even more police inspectors had gathered in the storeroom to watch.

All the police inspectors were already equipped with peach wood swords, and they all stepped forward, completely blocking the storage room.

Seeing that he had missed, Jun Morita raised his head, gripped the hilt of the naginata, and slashed at Hanako's doll again.

This time, Hanako's doll fell like trash, crashing heavily to the ground.

Without a doubt, Jun Morita's attack missed again; her attack speed was simply too slow to hit the enemy.

After landing, Hanako's doll transformed into a submarine and charged towards Shimizu Suzune at an extremely fast speed.

No one expected that Ms. Hanako's doll would suddenly attack Shimizu Suzune's side.

Shimizu Suzune had originally thought that since it was Morita Jun who caused this mess, then you should be the one to resolve it and make amends for your mistakes.

Unexpectedly, Hanako's doll bypassed Jun Morita and rushed straight to her. During this process, the life-size doll grew larger and larger, almost blocking her view.

Shimizu Suzune reacted quickly, gripping the white blade and stabbing it into Hanako-san's doll.

It hit the nail on the head right away!

Hanako's doll was frozen in place, as if nailed to the ground by a sharp blade.

Before anyone could celebrate, the lights in the Shinto Hall began to flicker, struggling to illuminate the building.

Normally, it's broad daylight, so even without the lights on, the Shinto Hall shouldn't be particularly dark.

However, at this moment, it seemed as if the Shinto Hall was blocked by something enormous, preventing any light from entering.
