I'm raising a fox fairy wife in Tokyo

Then they can be "resurrected" and return to the normal world.

This is only normal when searching for a corpse; however, when the possessed group puts it together with the zoo, the rules become distorted.

Those who truly die will be transformed into animals by it.

The place where the bodies were stored was not only located in "the darkness that could not be dispelled under the shade of the trees."

At the same time, the bodies of other dead people will also be mixed in. In other words, as long as one person dies, "A's" body will not be complete. Even if all of them are found, they cannot be resurrected.

Aishima Megumi just found out about this.

because.

She had recently seen half of Aish's head in the lion enclosure.

The girl suddenly turned off her phone screen.

Suddenly, she was completely swallowed by darkness.

Although she couldn't see it, Michiko sensed something twisted and terrifying, slowly deforming.

"benefit?"

She called out her friend's name, but all she heard in response was a faint squeaking sound coming from the darkness.

That's the sound of a rabbit.

The sudden change startled Michiko, who picked up her phone with a hint of fear, wanting to illuminate the darkness ahead.

And it was at this time...

She saw it; the twisted and terrifying rabbit-headed man suddenly lunged at her.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

The other party's target was not themselves, but the phone.

When I realized this.

Michiko discovered that her phone had been snatched away by "her" and the lights had been turned off.

Darkness descended instantly, followed by...

"Hee hee hee."

Laughter, seemingly coming from nowhere, drew closer.

But it was at this moment that...

A dazzling azure light suddenly spread from afar, like a tidal wave that wanted to devour everything, washing over and covering everything.

By the bright light.

Michiko felt that everything around her first turned pure white, and then countless blue electric currents covered everything.

And Hui, that rabbit-headed person.

Has disappeared.

The biting cold sensation was gone.

"what?"

In the end what happened?

The girl didn't understand, but even she vaguely sensed that something unusual had just ended.

But what followed was something even more sinister.

Michiko turned around.

Then, looking up at the sky, she saw herself with Fujiwara Chika and Minamoto Chizuru, who were also in the abandoned zoo, as well as Takagawa Takamori and Merry.

I saw the sky, which had been dark and heavy, with no stars or moon in sight.

It revealed a huge, yellow eye.

Those murky, fishy eyes suddenly emerged from the night sky, and inside, like those of a frog, were black striped pupils...

……

Stripes are a symbol of the devil.

"it is as expected."

Takakawa Takayuki, who just came out of the aquarium.

Looking at the huge striped eye that was now emerging from the sky, I fully understood the secret of this abandoned zoo.

Here.

It is a "ritual".

By combining the ghost stories of "finding corpses" and "zoo," the game relentlessly searches for "players" to enter and engage in an endless cycle of killing.

Healing and resurrection.

[A twisted body].

These are the "characteristics" represented by the two ghost stories, and most importantly, the necessary process to understand what exactly happened.

[Peeping into the truth] and [Searching for the hidden origins of the ghost stories].

And these.

It is all the characteristics that a certain demon represents, and everything that He loves.

This is the "home" that the possessors tailored for them.

It is His "paradise" for passing the time.

And this guy is...

Marbas.

He is the fifth-ranked demon among the seventy-two demons of Solomon.

So, the demon god enshrined in the altar hidden in Yoshiwara, which was previously in the abandoned inn, was taken away by the possessed and placed here?

He got angry because he ruined the place where He had fun.

The striped eyes in the sky blinked.

Then it disappeared, but immediately afterward, what emerged from the clouds was a huge, pure white, and incomparably sacred face, with the horns of a goat, the head of a lion, and the incredibly handsome face of a human youth.

He was emaciated.

It has full, pure white angel wings.

Even if they are "demons," in the eyes of believers they are incomparably noble and pure beings, not the ugly monsters that are slandered.

But it doesn't matter.

Takagawa Ryu looked at Marbas, whose true appearance had finally been revealed.

That's what I thought of.

I've never killed a demon god before, I wonder what it feels like to slash one...

……

Chapter 86: "Kyoto's Strongest" and "Tokyo's Strongest" Encounter Rivals Simultaneously!

Pure white "rain" fell from the sky.

At first, it resembled the brilliant trail of a meteor, or a burst of fire exploding in the sky, slowly falling until, from within the clouds, Marbas's two large hands emerged.

Only then could people see clearly that those were His fingernails, constantly deforming and lengthening, from which countless soft threads emanated.

Is it hair?

Body hair?

Or something more twisted and indescribable.

No one knows.

Countless strands of pure white fur enveloped the entire abandoned zoo, as if trying to connect to something, and finally landed on the "animals" that had just been turned into charcoal by Takagawa Ryu's "giant jet".

Even if all that remains on the ground are broken bodies, fragments of flesh, or even charred remains.

Touched by that pure white fur, as if by magic, regeneration began—

……

"Hey, hey, hey, let's run away!"

Since the main characters of both "Zoo" and "Searching for the Corpse" were killed by Takagawa Takayuki, the rules of both ghost stories became invalid simultaneously.

therefore.

The two boys, Ikezaki and Takeshi, who had just been "killed" by Michiko, were resurrected at the entrance of the abandoned zoo.

They have returned to the real world.

At the same time, they witnessed that terrifying scene in the sky.

Completely bewildered by what was happening, but driven by an overwhelming sense of fear, he frantically tried to push open the abandoned iron gate of the zoo and leave.

But that's the result.

Just as the two were working hard, eerie whispers came from the darkness behind them.

"バサル."

That is……

basal, [basic]?

The two boys, Ikezaki and Takeshi, could not understand that the cornerstone of this symbolized "temple and church" was a necessary sacrifice, the simplest offering to the "gods".

The words kept seeping into my ears.

There's no going back.

However, if you were to stand outside the zoo and look at the two boys, you would see the darkness behind them.

Many pure white, ferocious, and terrifying faces emerged.

They split open their mouths, revealing pitch-black oral cavity and gleaming white teeth inside. Their wide-open eyes had no eyelids, and blood vessels burst from the inside of their eyes, making them look exactly like corporate slaves who had been working overtime for seven consecutive days and nights.

His cheeks and forehead were also excessively thin, as if he were completely malnourished, clinging tightly to his bones.

Except for the face, everything else was black.

His body was like oil, even reflecting light in the night, and a few strands of pure white hair peeked out from the top of his head, a testament to divine intervention.

"バサルバサルバサルバサルバサルバサルバサルバサル..."

Whispers are everywhere in the darkness.

The two boys suddenly remembered the scary legends their parents had told them when they were young, to keep them from going out at night.

[A horde of beings lurking in the darkness, specifically targeting those they see at night.]

It whispers in people's ears, and everyone who hears that voice goes mad.

[Losing language, losing reason, losing the ability to think...]

Ultimately, they will succumb to lust and attack the opposite sex, and will devour livestock to satisfy their appetite.

It's as if it's multiplying endlessly.

They are—

[Meat Industry Master].

Ancient demons from Europe have also left behind their own legends on the land of Japan.

The two boys shrank rapidly.

It turned into a painful and twisted human skeleton, and finally crawled out of the clothes like a caterpillar.

Then it grew rapidly and became larger.

Although it did not yet have those pitch-black, beast-like limbs, an identical head had already grown on its twisted, worm-like body.
