Supernatural/Anime Crossover: Where Did My Romantic Comedy Go?

In a daze, Yukino Yukinoshita felt her consciousness being pulled away and lifted high into the sky.

The sky instantly darkened.

Night fell over the earth.

The sound of obscure and incomprehensible folk songs reached my ears.

The dilapidated torii gate stands crookedly in the mountains.

On the high platform, the shrine maiden danced the Kagura dance to please the gods.

The crimson crown reflected the firelight.

The bell is ringing softly.

A fiery snake coils along the winding mountain path.

Villagers, carrying torches and lanterns, formed a long procession and walked towards the shrine.

The scene before him gave Xuexia Xue a sense of déjà vu.

It was at this moment that the shrine maiden suddenly raised her head.

She stared directly at Yukino Yukinoshita in the void.

Her face was deathly pale, devoid of any color.

Only her bright red lips seemed to be dripping blood.

That look is exactly like her!

Yukino was startled.

Consciousness quickly returned to the body.

My heart was pounding, and my forehead was covered in a thick layer of cold sweat.

What did you see?

Kujo Toru saw that Yukino Yukinoshita had ended her suddenly triggered spiritual vision and subtly withdrew her hand.

The attempt to investigate the source of the stench emanating from her body ultimately failed.

The divine protection she received was so intense that she was almost fighting back against Kujo Toru with all her might.

Moreover, unlike the gods in the Noragami world whose power is somewhat undeserved.

Although what is before us is merely a shield, it is still quite powerful.

In just a few seconds, the flow of spiritual energy in the air became so turbulent that the boundary between the mortal world and the real world in the classroom began to blur.

This is why Yukino Yukinoshita, who couldn't see the other side of the world before, unintentionally triggered her spiritual vision and glimpsed some corners of it.

To avoid more serious consequences, Kujo Toru had no choice but to back down.

He was indeed very interested in the strangeness surrounding Yukino Yukinoshita, and also very curious about the current state of the gods in this world.

However, they haven't gone so far as to be completely reckless and disregard everything.

"I saw it..."

Yukino Yukinoshita covered her bare chest with her right hand, feeling her heartbeat gradually slow down.

Her older sister Haruno's description and what she had just experienced made her no longer hold back with Kujou Toru, and she told him everything she had seen.

Kujo Toru pondered for a moment:

"You said you've had similar dreams before?"

"Correct."

Yukino Yukinoshita nodded: "The same shrine, the same festival, but in the dream, I was from the perspective of a shrine maiden, and there was a large black serpent coiled in the sky."

Almost immediately, Kujo Toru thought of the black snake phantom that appeared after he defeated Ushi-Toki-onna at Haneyama High School.

The same shrine maiden, the same distinctive upward-pointing crown.

It can be basically concluded that the giant snake she saw in her dream was the same one that Kujo Toru saw back then.

But what is the reason that Orochi has set his sights on Yukino Yukinoshita?

Was it because they had a past connection, or because she herself was special, or simply because she was unlucky?

Kujo Toru rested his hands on the back of the chair, tapping his fingers lightly, without saying a word.

The classroom fell silent for a moment.

Is it a difficult situation?

Yukino Yukinoshita looked at him.

His expression, however, was quite calm.

It was as if these troubles hadn't happened to her at all.

"It's hard to say, mainly because there's too little information and we have no clue what to do."

Kujo Toru shook his head.

This is the most troublesome thing right now.

The divine protection emanating from her was so sensitive, like that of a round-headed old man; the slightest touch would cause him to breathe heavily.

The source of the stench of death on Yukino Yukinoshita's body could not be determined at all.

Not to mention that enormous snake that had no clue whatsoever.

Ultimately, apart from the bizarre ritual in her dream that she described, there was no other useful information.

Fortunately, Yukino Yukinoshita's emotions remained quite stable.

He didn't appear panicked or hysterical.

Instead, he stuffed the paper back into his chest and then took a book out of his bag.

He then looked up at Kujo Toru and spoke earnestly:

"I will try my best to find the real location of the shrine in my dream."

Although she didn't know why Kujo Tetsu was so concerned about her problems, Yukino Yukinoshita wasn't the kind of person who didn't try to save herself and just waited for others to lend a hand.

Now that she knew there was something wrong with the dream, she had to do what she could.

"Okay, let me know when you have definite news. Your sister knows how to contact you."

"Ah."

Kujo Toru picked up his schoolbag, ready to leave.

Now that the investigation into Yukino Yukinoshita's stench of death has come to an end, there is no need for him to continue following her around.

The investigation into "Summer, Fireworks, and Me Under the Tree" is still ongoing, and he still has many things to do.

For example, ask Superintendent Ando if he knows the exact address of Yomiyama Junior High School after its relocation.

However, before he even reached the door, hurried footsteps could be heard in the corridor.

Immediately afterwards, the classroom door was kicked open, and a tall figure almost completely blocked the door frame.

His gaze swept briefly across the clubroom before landing directly on Toru Kujo.

"You were here after all!"

Volume 1: Chapter 116 Mental Illness

The newcomer's face was tense.

He had an extremely muscular physique, and the loose-fitting kendo uniform he wore was stretched into a tight-fitting bodysuit by his muscles.

Its tower-like body completely blocked out the sunlight.

Yukino Yukinoshita even felt that the light in the classroom had dimmed a bit.

His brows were furrowed.

He closed the book in his hands and stood up from the chair.

She knows this person.

Or rather, she forced all the students in the school to memorize it.

"Kendo Club President Yokota Tsuyoshi, what are you doing in my Service Club at this hour instead of training at the kendo dojo?"

A cool, clear voice rang out.

Yukino Yukinoshita walked directly to Toru Kujo and looked up at the burly man.

Despite the vast difference in their sizes, she showed no fear on her face; instead, there was a hint of accusation in her expression.

"This is none of your business, Yukinoshita."

Yokota only glanced at her before turning his gaze back to Kujo Toru.

"I'm here to see this man."

His gaze gradually intensified.

The atmosphere became increasingly dangerous.

They moved closer and closer step by step.

The sense of oppression it creates is getting stronger and stronger.

"Kujo-kun, I wanted to talk to you last week, but I didn't expect you to be on leave."

Yokota gritted his teeth and said, word by word:

"After hearing that you were back in class, I rushed over immediately, and I finally found you."

"Yokota-senpai!"

Yukino Yukinoshita's gaze also sharpened, and she still showed no sign of backing down.

She knew, of course, that the other party was after Kujo Toru.

Similarly, she had heard of the reputation of the kendo club.

To put it bluntly, it has a very bad reputation.

He once directly threatened the student council president over club funding issues and also got into a group fight with the archery club.

The reason is that the current Kendo club president believes that the Archery club is taking up extra funds from his club.

The final result was that the Kendo Club paid the price of two members, sending the entire Archery Club to the infirmary.

Logically, given such a egregious incident, Yokota Tsuyoshi, as the department head, should have resigned or even been asked to leave. However, because the other party had reached the semi-finals in the men's singles competition of the National High School Kendo Tournament, he was only given a verbal warning.

So from then on, most students at Soubu High School would avoid the Kendo Club after hearing about it.

Yukino Yukinoshita didn't know why Yokota Tsuyoshi would cause trouble for Kujo Toru, but she couldn't just sit idly by, as she was the head of the Service Club.

Even if Kujo Toru might not need her to step forward at all.

However, Yokota ignored her completely and instead faced Kujo Toru with a smile.

His mouthful of bright white teeth was extremely eye-catching.

Immediately afterwards, he lunged straight at them.

Then, to Yukino's astonishment, she grabbed Kujou Toru's leg and began to wail:

"Kujo-kun, Kujo-sama, please, save the kendo club!"

"If it weren't for you, our kendo club would really be doomed!"

Yukino Yukinoshita finds it hard to believe that a burly man known for his ferocity at school could actually cry so hard.

"Forget about it, there's no way I'll join the kendo club."

Kujo Toru strode straight out of the classroom.

Yokota's behavior might seem unfamiliar to Yukino Yukinoshita, but it's all too familiar to Toru Kujo.

This wasn't the first or second time that Yokota had used this scoundrel-like manner to ask him to join the kendo club.

It was only in the last two or three weeks, with the Jade Dragon Flag competition about to begin, that the Kendo Club seized the time to train and prepare, thus avoiding bothering him.
