In this crossover anime, Yoshikage Kira longs for a peaceful life.

Ichika Nakano, who had been waiting nearby, immediately stepped forward to replace Satsuki Nakano, who was feeling dizzy from the blood transfusion.

Kira Yoshikage looked at the empty box and asked:

"Did anyone bring the amulet to the room?"

"No."

Nakano Miku and the other girls shook their heads in denial, which made Kira Yoshikage turn his gaze to the unconscious Nino.

There are only two possibilities when an evil spirit approaches a protective amulet: either it is too weak and is crushed by the spiritual energy within the amulet, or it is powerful enough to crush the amulet in return. Some special amulets can even be devoured by evil spirits.

But in either case, evil spirits wouldn't be running around with the amulet.

Therefore, it can only be that someone took the amulet.

If it's not Nakano Miku and the others, then it can only be Nakano Nino.

So, where will she take the amulet?

Kira Yoshikage's expression shifted slightly, and he suddenly turned around and strode towards the bathroom.

Nakano Miku and Nakano Satsuki subconsciously followed, perhaps wanting to see if there was anything they could do to help, or perhaps because only by staying by Kira Yoshikage's side could they feel at ease.

When they followed Yoshikage Kira to the bathroom, they saw a full tub of boiling blood!

The thick blood, boiling over, overflowed the edges, splashing onto the floor and walls, leaving pools of crimson stains. The entire bathroom looked like the site of a cult's sacrificial ritual, as if some monster might emerge from the blood at any moment, sending chills down one's spine.

Kira Yoshikage stared at the boiling, thick blood in the bathtub and suddenly spoke:

"The amulet should be inside. Who will go and retrieve it?"

Nakano Satsuki took a step back in alarm:

"Fire it from there?"

Her inner fear made her instinctively resist touching the blood in the bathtub.

Miku Nakano was also pale with fear, but she quickly calmed down and took a step forward:

"I'll do it."

“Miku.” Nakano Satsuki stared at her sister in disbelief.

"Someone has to do it."

The girl's voice was very soft, and her body trembled with fear.

Although her movements were slow, she resolutely moved closer to the bathtub step by step.

Finally, standing in front of the bathtub filled with churning blood, Nakano Miku mustered her courage, closed her eyes, and plunged her hand into it.

The strong stench of blood wafted up from nearby, and the girl was tormented by fear and nausea, almost vomiting, but she held back and just trembled as she searched for something in the bathtub.

Kira Yoshikage stood to the side, quietly watching her, watching the blood in the bathtub.

Snapped!

A drop of foul-smelling liquid splashed onto Nakano Miku's face, causing the girl's body to tremble even more violently.

But she still suppressed her fear and did not pull her hand out of the bathtub.

Finally, Nakano Miku felt something in the thick blood; it was a cylindrical object.

This made the girl ecstatic, and she instinctively wanted to take it out.

But the next second, she touched something even more—

It wasn't a cylindrical amulet, but a palm with five fingers.

The cylindrical object she just touched was one of the fingers of that hand!

But how could there be a human hand in the bathtub?

Fear made Nakano Miku want to pull her hand away, but the next second the hand she touched suddenly gripped her wrist tightly under the blood, making it difficult for her to break free!

"Kira-kun..."

The girl instinctively wanted to ask for help out of fear, but before she could even utter a word...

She felt a lightness in her wrist; the hand that had gripped her wrist seemed to have vanished without a trace.

"continue."

Kira Yoshikage's steady voice came to her ear.

Knowing that it was Yoshikage Kira who had made the move, Miku Nakano finally felt a little relieved and mustered up her courage to continue groping through the blood.

This time, Nakano Miku even mustered the courage to open her eyes and look at the blood in front of her.

But as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw a human face calmly staring back at her on the surging blood.

At that moment, the girl's breath stopped, and the only sound in the world was the rapid beating of her heart.

The human face in the blood, as the blood churned, instantly became incredibly grotesque.

"what--!"

With a sharp scream, the face suddenly burst free of its bloody restraints and stood up abruptly!

That was a blood-soaked person!

A blood-soaked man with a human face and body, but whose entire body is made of churning blood!

As the blood-soaked figure stood up, the blood in the bathtub was instantly emptied, revealing the original white color of the bathtub at the bottom.

At the same time, the blood-covered figure opened its gaping maw, as if it wanted to swallow the girl in front of it whole!

boom!

puff!

In an instant, the girl, her body stiff with fear, watched helplessly as the blood transformed into a blood-soaked figure that stood up, its gaping maw about to swallow her whole. But the next second, the blood-soaked figure suddenly 'exploded'.

Blood splattered everywhere, and even Nakano Satsuki at the door was not spared, getting splattered with blood and screaming in terror.

But Miku seemed to have cast aside all her fear, and mustered the courage to look at the bottom of the bathtub—

At the bottom of the bathtub, where the blood-soaked figure had just stood, there was a cylindrical object wrapped in a talisman.

That was the amulet they obtained from the Atago Shrine!

Nakano Miku quickly grabbed the amulet in her hand, then stood up abruptly, only to feel a sudden dizziness and intense pain wash over her!

"Ahh-!"

Amid the girl's agonizing screams, her body uncontrollably collapsed into the bathtub.

Yoshikage Kira quickly stepped forward and caught the girl just before she collapsed, while the pink cat also swiftly grasped the 'amulet' in its palm!

A scalding burning sensation emanated from the 'amulet,' causing Kira Yoshikage's hand, which shared the sensation with his Stand, to also experience a strong burning sensation, as if he were holding a piece of molten iron at thousands of degrees Celsius!

The Killer Queen swiftly tossed the 'amulet' into the air, and in the instant it slipped out of her grasp...

The 'amulet' seemed to possess its own consciousness, quickly and accurately falling back into the bathtub, attempting to reassemble itself using the remaining blood in the tub—it had been careless, failing to dodge and not realizing who the real enemy was.

But if given another chance, it would definitely kill those damned humans!

Unfortunately, the Killer Queen wouldn't give it that chance—

Before the 'amulet' could fall back into the bathtub, a fist the size of a sandbag blasted the 'amulet' away!

BOOM!

Chapter 66 So, what is the price?

boom!!

In the silent explosion, the 'amulet' transformed into a pervasive black mist in mid-air and disappeared.

Although the battle was intense, it actually lasted only a very short time, almost instantaneous. So before Miku and Satsuki in the bathroom could even react, it was all over.

By the time they finally came to their senses, Yoshikage Kira had already left the bathroom and headed towards the living room.

Nakano Miku pursed her lips and quickly followed.

Nakano Satsuki also snapped out of her daze. She stared blankly at the bathroom, where the walls and floor were stained red with blood. The pungent smell of blood made her shiver. She dared not stay there alone any longer and hurriedly chased after the two who had left.

Meanwhile, in the living room, Nakano Ichika saw that the three people who came out of the bathroom were all covered in blood, and she couldn't help but feel worried:

"Kira-kun, that amulet..."

"It can be considered an amulet, but according to sorcerers, it should be called a cursed object."

"A cursed object?" The four Nakano sisters looked at each other, not understanding the difference.

"The amulet itself is just a medium and does not have the ability to exorcise evil spirits. Only when a powerful spiritualist infuses the amulet with spiritual energy can the amulet function. The principle is to use powerful spiritual energy to drive away those weak evil spirits."

"But if you encounter an evil spirit that is too powerful, the protective charm will become a source of danger. While the principle of the cursed object is the same, the material used to make the cursed object is the evil spirit."

Ichika Nakano was taken aback at first, then her eyes revealed an uncontrollable fear:

"So, the 'amulet' we brought back from the shrine is actually an evil spirit?"

Yoshikage Kira corrected:

"To be precise, it was part of a powerful evil spirit."

“If the seal on the cursed object itself is intact, then this cursed object can indeed be used as a ‘protective charm’, and it works very well.”

"But once the seal is broken, the aura released by the cursed object itself will attract all the evil spirits in the vicinity. Because for any evil spirit, devouring the cursed object is enough to cause a tremendous change in their strength."

Nakano Miku whispered:

"Is that why there are so many evil spirits in the house?"

They went to the shrine to pray for safety, but little did they know that the 'amulet' was the source of danger.

"I'm sorry..." Nakano Satsuki pursed her lips, her voice trembling with a hint of tears.

"This is actually a good thing."

"Since the evil spirits in the vicinity have been attracted to your home, it means that you will not encounter any evil spirits for a long time to come. Of course, the premise is that you do not wander around the areas where evil spirits gather."

Ichika Nakano hesitated for a moment, then asked in a low voice:

Which specific areas are included?
