Makima, the section chief, went to Morioh Town alone, and it's unknown when she'll return. Dispatching demon hunters from nearby cities will also take time...

that's terrible.

On the other end of the line, Makima didn't respond. The female operator asked again tentatively, "M-Ms. Makima?"

"I understand."

"I'll send someone to stop Ryougi Shiki."

"People? We still have Demon Section 4..."

The female operator asked subconsciously, but when she saw the surveillance footage of the dead who seemed to have been resurrected from hell at the call of the Mother Goddess, her mouth opened involuntarily and she couldn't utter a word.

Machima ends the call.

He leaned against the window with a cold expression, looking at the night scene of Tokyo that had already emerged.

"The moonlight tonight is so beautiful~"

"It's time to put an end to the story~"

The car window glass has two sides, one side is the bright and deep moonlight, and the other side is the golden wheel eye that is like the scorching sun.

Although she was not sure why Ryougi Shiki chose to walk out of the prison at this time, Makima had a rough guess in her mind.

"I guess... I came here because of Yue-kun."

Makima could sense that Ryougi Shiki's power had never been fully unleashed. Within her, a monster lurked, a monster connected directly to the source.

[Domination] is one of the roots, Kira's [Death] is also one of the roots, and the root of Ryougi Shiki...

"At this time, no one is allowed to disturb Yuejun and me. No matter who it is, they should be eliminated." Makima murmured. This is the last step to ascend to heaven. No one is allowed to destroy the ceremony, especially Ryougi Shiki who has the ability to kill everything.

If the opponent is her, things will become quite tricky.

So, it must be stopped.

"Stand up~"

Makima ruled with a voice as majestic as a mother goddess, her rule transcending time and space and descending upon the Anti-Demon Fourth Class headquarters.

In the morgue sealed with dead demon hunters, the bodies of the deceased crawled out one by one and reappeared in the world. Invisible chains of control connected their spines, governing all their actions.

Upon closer inspection, their pupils lacked any color that could be called "human." Deep within those hollow pupils, one could even see the same golden Samsara eyes as Makima.

He is observing the present world through the controlled corpses.

All the corpses collected by the Anti-Demon Section 4 since its establishment stood up. The number of people collected by violent organizations in Japan must be quite a lot.

People like Reise, Guangxi, Katana who were killed and suppressed by Makima in the past, and people like Kishibe and Hayakawa Aki who were killed and suppressed in the past... as long as their bodies are not completely destroyed, they will be repaired in the end and reappear in the world with all their abilities in life.

Such a terrifying configuration, if not for the contractual restrictions with the government, would probably have overturned the entire Japan overnight.

"Now, go stop Ryougi Shiki and don't let her get close to Yue Jun."

"Yes, my goddess——"

The demon hunters commanding the reincarnation responded in unison. Someone's ability activated, causing transparent wings to sprout from their backs. With these wings flapping, they instantly burst out of the Anti-Magic Fourth Division headquarters, beginning the moonlit chase.

Soon, the train from Morioh Town to Chiba also began to slow down until it completely lost momentum and stopped on the shore.

Chiba, we're here.

Makima got out of the car, and even with her current state of mind, she couldn't help but feel a little excited.

The last step to heaven~

Makima took a deep breath, crushed the ground with her brown leather boots, and said to Ryuk, who had been floating quietly beside her, "Let's go, Ryuk."

"Hehehe, I understand."

……

……

Light Yagami raised his hand in disgust and wiped the blood from his neck with his sleeve.

If his physical fitness had not been strengthened to the limit of human beings, the sudden attack just now would probably have made him lose the ability to resist in an instant.

Even though he reacted quickly, he still inevitably got bruised and bloodied by the opponent's fangs. He looked miserable and miserable, but it didn't affect his body functions much.

However, what made Light Yagami even more angry than the burning wound was the other party's appearance.

Shoulder-length golden hair, a red jacket with a white collar, and a knee-length skirt. Her scarlet eyes were filled with a beast-like bloodthirsty killing intent... At first glance, she didn't look like a human, but rather like a beast that had awakened its twisted bloodlust.

The reason why Light Yagami was angry was that his imitation... was not a simple imitation, but a desecration!

At this moment, Light Yagami figured out a lot of things. The sixty days of surveillance he had persisted in and the police's internal records about the appearance of the ghoul were all explained at this moment.

Damn it, he's defiling Ryougi Shiki.

Light Yagami's eyes also flashed with an evil red light, and the eyes of death quietly activated: "Hakujun Rio... lion, beast."

"An ugly beast."

Light Yagami did not hide his disgust at all. The crime of imitating Ryougi Shiki to kill people made him feel more disgusted than simply killing people like a ghoul.

"Tsk, he actually dodged it."

Bai Chunliu didn't seem to hear what Yagami Light said. She wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth and said admiringly: "You are the first prey to dodge."

"Why do you want to imitate Liang Yi?"

Light Yagami's gaze was so cold as if he was looking at a corpse. This look actually stunned Bai Junrio, who was standing under the dim street light.

He had killed many people, but he never had such a look in his eyes. In his eyes, his prey were still living beings. But the look in Light Yagami's eyes... For a moment, Shirasumi Rio felt like she was already dead.

"How many people have you killed to have such a cold look in your eyes?"

"What do you think of life, you bastard?" Bai Chunli sneered, "I originally thought you were just an ordinary person, but now it seems that you have quite a few secrets..."

"answer me!"

"Because... I admire her~" Bai Junli said tremblingly: "Shiki is so beautiful. If I eat her, I will ascend to heaven."

"I killed people again and again, repeatedly trying to attract her attention, just to make the emotions in her heart stronger. But it wasn't enough. I still lacked the last key to Shiki's heart."

"That key is you~Yagami Light."

"I've investigated you. You have a deep relationship with Shiki~"

"If she devoured you and left you in a mess, her emotions would surely explode. That would be the most wonderful taste."

Killing people and eating people.

Horrifying words kept pouring out of Bai Chunli's mouth. He seemed to enjoy constantly inflicting fear on his prey, making its meat even more delicious. Fear was a delicacy that wild beasts had to taste.

Light Yagami narrowed his eyes, and had already sentenced Shirajun Rio to death in his heart.

Killing him would be easy, as long as he used the notes in his watch. However, due to the suddenness of the incident and the skills displayed by Shirazumi Rio beyond human limits...Yagami Light couldn't cope with his attack while also plotting the cause of his death.

If I simply wrote his name and let him die here... there will definitely be an investigation afterwards.

Although the Cabinet has announced that all of Kira's killings will be considered legal, that is based on the fact that Kira is unknown. If the fact that Kira = Light Yagami is revealed, all the mysterious aura around him will disappear. What will the Cabinet's attitude be then?

The results are obvious.

Light Yagami never believed the words of these politicians. He had always expected that the Anti-Demon Section 4, lurking in the shadows, would never give up on hunting him down. He could not let his guard down for a moment until he had all the information available about the Anti-Demon Section 4.

It would be very troublesome to let Shirajun Rio die of a heart attack like this, and if I don't kill him, my own life will be in danger.

"It would be nice if Ryuk were here."

"You don't seem nervous at all." As a wild animal, Shirozumi Rio could sense the emotions of her prey. At least after she had spoken those threatening words, she didn't sense any of the nervousness or fear of a prey like Light Yagami.

Really... you have no respect for predators at all! Prey should have the awareness of prey, you bastard!

Shirajun Rio reached into her arms, took out a short sword similar to the one Ryougi Shiki usually used, and licked the cold blade with her tongue.

……

……

A white figure shuttled back and forth under the moonlight, and a faint golden light flashed in the eyes of Ryougi Shiki, the Death Perception Demon that was emitting a strange light.

The roots are guiding her in the direction of progress.

The physical instinct from the person named Ryougi Shiki kept driving her to run towards where Light Yagami was.

Suddenly, Ryougi Shiki's body suddenly stopped. A terrifying explosion occurred in front of her, and the smoke and dust blocked her progress.

When the smoke and dust cleared, Ryougi Shiki's eyes widened.

He murmured in disbelief: "This is..."

More than a dozen figures, emitting a terrifying aura, blocked her path, their hands drooping as they stood silently, not saying a word. Among them, Ryougi Shiki saw quite a few familiar figures, some of whom she had personally killed and handed over to the Anti-Demon Section 4...

It was indeed she who killed him, deader than dead. But what was standing in front of him?

Shore took a step forward from the group of corpses, and said coldly, "Stop ahead."

Perhaps because they had necrotic skin when they were alive, these resurrected demon hunters looked the most normal on the shore.

As the words fell on the shore, the demon hunters behind him also took postures ready for battle. If Ryougi Shiki had not stopped, a big battle would have been inevitable.

Ryougi Shiki said nothing, but held the short sword tightly in his hand across his chest, staring coldly at the "corpses" with his pair of death-sight eyes.

They were all dead, not living things, but Ryougi Shiki could still see their death line. Even corpses could be killed.

If it was a one-on-one battle, Ryougi Shiki would not be afraid of any opponent, but there were simply too many demon hunters in front of her.

The Mystic Eyes of Death Perception shifted their gaze upwards, and Ryougi Shiki's expression froze for a moment. She saw the "chain" behind the corpse. Following the invisible chain to the end, she saw Chiba, her destination.

On that chain, Ryougi Shiki felt Makima's breath.

"Makima...what do you think life is?" This was the first time that Ryougi Shiki felt angry at Makima. Such an act of desecrating the dead was completely treating life as one's own plaything.

How arrogant...

But this way, things become simpler.

Under the influence of the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, she didn't have to fight to the death with the corpses. She only needed to cut the chains of control behind them to let them return to the arms of death.

"But, time..."

"Leave it to me~"

Ryougi Shiki was in a trance for a moment, and the next second, golden light appeared in his eyes.

All the powerful aura he exuded was withdrawn into his body, achieving the ultimate in restraint, appearing no different from an ordinary person. It was as if he had completely integrated into this world, into the very essence of all people.

Root Shiki took over the battle that belonged to Ryougi Shiki.

Her face was serene, all the impatience brought on by Ryougi Shiki disappearing.

The Origin took a step forward, sending the message that the battle had begun to the resurrected demon hunters.

"Demon hunters who were born to kill cannot find peace even after death. How sad." Origin's eyes were full of pity. The demon hunters in front of her moved quickly, but in her eyes, they seemed still.

Genshiki is not moved by anything outside of her. Even when Ryougi Shiki was facing a near-death crisis, she would only watch from a third-party perspective. However, Yagami Light was different.

Gen-shiki really developed a strong interest in Light Yagami.

In her eyes, Light Yagami's origin wasn't death, but a mist, as if he had never belonged to this world. Light Yagami's origin and soul connected to another world.

In addition, the soul of this body, filled with surging emotions towards Light Yagami, still affected the Root Style, which was supposed to be free of desires.

Therefore, nothing must happen to Light Yagami.

This is a declaration from the roots.

The battle is about to break out.

A breeze blew by, and Ryougi Shiki's figure in white clothes rustled as she danced in the moonlight, wandering between the complex dead lines.

Like the most graceful dancer, he set off a feast dedicated to the god of death.

Volume 1: 122 Write Your Name in My Blood

"Funeral—!"

The night is the stage and the moonlight is the beacon.

Her root-like figure was like a solitary breeze, sweeping across the sweltering summer night. Her eyes were gentle and indifferent, as if everything that struck her was but a passing cloud.

The dagger held lightly in his hand, its edge gleaming with a faint golden light, as if drawing strength from the source. Every tremor of the blade tip seemed to speak of tenderness towards the deceased.
