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

"What about Miss Iki?"

"She has already gone home."

Kujo Toru was not lying.

When the system notified them that the training mission was completed, Hiyori inexplicably returned to Higurashi Shrine and was currently fleeing with Bishamonten and Kofuku.

Just now, she had explained this matter to Toru Kujo through her heartfelt prayer.

The commotion caused by the Kusanagi in modern times, though stopped by him and resulting in few casualties, still attracted the attention of the authorities due to the catastrophic scene.

Not to mention that even the Shinshin Evangelion, which was intended to be used as the final weapon, was directly cleaved in two by the Winning Clam.

While the higher-ups were speculating about the reasons and enduring interrogation from the "Golden Retriever" across the ocean, they quickly dispatched the Self-Defense Forces to the scene.

Only Yato, because he and Ebisu were once friends, was forced to stay behind and clean up the mess.

Although Kujo Tetsu thought to himself that they were completely unlike what gods should be, Yato could still sever the connection between ordinary humans and the world and erase their memories.

With so many people involved and such a wide scope, he'll be quite busy these days.

Let's just hope that the gods don't die suddenly from overworking.

Kikyo fell silent.

The setting sun cast its rays upon the two of them, and the sound of babbling water filled their ears.

While casting the grand spell [Mirror Flower Water Moon], Yueyejian had already restored the ravaged land to its original appearance by refining the false into the true.

However, she could not bring back those who were killed by Ama no Kusanagi, because their souls had already entered the land of the dead.

That was the territory ruled by Izanami.

The celestial phenomena returned to their original state.

The period of stay has come to an end.

"Goodbye."

After leaving behind those words, Kujo Toru suddenly vanished from the spot.

The priestess was left standing alone in the same spot.

Goodbye?

Looking up at the setting sun, the shrine maiden shouldered her bow and put away the Shikon Jewel again, then set off on her way back to the village.

With the familiar feeling of falling consciousness, the scene before Kujo Toru's eyes completely changed.

The deep night enveloped the entire city.

It's more prosperous and modern than the area around Hiyori Iki.

At least in that modern society, flip phones are still in use, while smartphones are already widespread here.

Just as he was about to open the system panel to check his status, Kujo Toru felt a furry object hit him directly on the nose.

And she held her face tightly.

"You wretched demon king, I want you to do my homework for a whole day..."

Hearing the sleep-talking in his ear, Kujo Tetsu's face instantly darkened.

He grabbed the teddy bear by the neck with his right hand and threw it aside.

Even after being treated like that, Suzumoto Mayu didn't wake up. She turned over, lay face down on the pillow, and continued to sleep, preoccupied with some sweet dream.

Even though it's already a shikigami and doesn't need sleep at all, it still acts like a child.

After her outburst, Kujo Tetsuya was too lazy to stay in bed any longer.

I got up in the dark and went to the bedroom door.

The door was ajar and not locked.

It's obvious that Suzumoto Mayu refused to sleep obediently in the study again and sneaked in in the middle of the night.

I turned on the living room light, placed the two-in-one version of the Ama-Kusanagi in my hand on the table, and poured myself a glass of water.

After being processed by Tsukiyomi, this sword is no different from an ordinary katana unless its true name is invoked to unleash its true power; it even loses the original sharpness of the Sacred Bone Sword.

However, it didn't matter to Kujo Toru.

After all, he had always used the Divine Sword. He only carried this thing with him as a backup in special circumstances.

I sat down on the sofa and opened the system panel.

The gains from this training mission far exceeded those of the past.

In terms of spiritual power level alone, after raising the level from 14 to 17 in the battle with the snail clam, it has now reached level 19, and the experience bar is quite full, with only about one-tenth of the progress left before the next level.

Compared to before this training, it has improved by a full 5 levels, and its spiritual power has become much stronger.

However, in the training world, his avatar was kept at level 25, which is why he had no perception.

Now that he's back in the real world, he's keenly aware of the changes.

Unfortunately, as his level increased, the gap in experience points also widened.

Many vengeful spirits and monsters that once seemed to offer considerable experience points are now completely insignificant from a modern perspective.

Kujo Tetsu estimated that it would take at least three or four of those vengeful spirits, like the Black Tanuki, to fill the remaining gaps in the progress.

Hopefully, next week's trip to Daimura will fill that time.

After all, he awakened his guardian spirit, Golden Crow Moon Rabbit, when he reached level 10. Kujo Toru was really looking forward to what the reward would be at level 20.

He had never forgotten that the main hall of the Seifu Taisha Shrine still contained fragments of the Sessho-seki (killing stone).

He even fought against the Tamamo-no-Mae split spirit inside, and it was on that occasion that the Golden Crow Ninety-Nine Weapon Form was truly activated for the first time.

Whether those great monsters that have already been destroyed will awaken again in this era is something no one can say for sure.

But there is no doubt that the situation in the real world is worse than that in Hiyori Iki's world.

At least the boundary between the mortal world and the real world is relatively stable on her side. Even if Yato and the others are beyond the imagination of gods, eight million gods still exist, and Tsukiyo, as one of the three noble children, is more powerful than ever before.

Although I don't know the situation of Amaterasu and Susanoo, they are both among the three noble sons of the Sage of the Three Kingdoms, so they shouldn't be too different.

Probably...

Thinking of this, Kujo Toru frowned.

Even now, he still doesn't understand how Tsukiyomi managed to grant Yukino Yukinoshita, who lives in a different world, divine protection.

And what about the motivation?

He really wanted to get to the bottom of this, but Tsukiyomi bluntly stated that she wanted to be the riddle solver, effectively killing the game with a single sentence.

Now that the other person is asleep inside him, he has no way to ask any further questions.

It seems that Yukino Yukinoshita's involvement extends far beyond Daimura.

Kujo Toru shook his head, deciding to put the matter aside for the time being.

Without clues, any guessing is futile.

My gaze returned to the system panel.

[Idle Skill Points]: 9

[Silver Treasure Chest]: 1

A new world of trials has begun.

Before starting this training, he had 2 free skill points. He leveled up 5 times, which gave him a total of 5 skill points. In addition, he received 2 more skill points as a reward from the training mission, bringing his total to 9 points.

You'll soon have enough skill points to upgrade Yin Yang to advanced level and unlock your second specialization.

However, Toru Kujo was somewhat reluctant to do so.

Just as he told Tsukiyomi, his Yin-Yang techniques were no longer sufficient to keep up with his combat abilities.

Even if you manage to level it up, it's still not as good as using the Ninety-Nine Weapons and swordsmanship to fight. It's better to save it to level up the advanced swordsmanship, or continue saving it and see how things go.

As for the silver treasure chest...

Remembering the fresh persimmons also placed in the main hall, Kujo Tetsu put down his water glass expressionlessly and ran to the bathroom to wash his hands.

They scrubbed and washed every part very carefully and thoroughly.

They were so devout, as if they were paying homage to heaven and earth.

Then open the box.

It's gold!

The blinding light filled the entire living room, even waking Suzumoto Mayu, who was fast asleep in her bedroom.

Still half asleep, I jumped out of bed and scrambled to the living room.

"What happened? What happened? A gas explosion?!"

He rubbed his button eyes, and the light quietly faded.

Only then did she notice that Kujo Tetsu was sitting on the sofa, holding a pinkish-red shard the size of a fingernail in his hand, staring blankly into space.

She ran all the way to him with her short legs, then climbed onto his shoulder, pulling on his trouser leg, and poked his face with her hairy arms:

"Is this something you just found again?"

Suzumoto Mayu greatly admired Kujo Toru's ability to collect trash.

The things kept in this hall are all incredibly important. Even though she knows that there is a divine barrier to suppress them and that nothing will happen, she usually only dares to walk around them and doesn't dare to even glance at them.

"Hmm, I just found it, but it's not very useful to me. Do you want it?"

Kujo Toru nodded.

Open your palm.

The cherry-pink fragment looked crystal clear in his hand.

Suzumoto Mayu's little face scrunched up in a frown.

She could clearly sense the powerful force contained within it, but she always had a bad feeling in her heart.

She turned her head to look at Toru Kujo, then carefully extended her furry hand and placed it on the shard.

An unprecedentedly powerful force surged into her body.

At the same time, the fragments began to become increasingly turbid. Although they did not turn black, they were clearly not as pure as they had been in the hands of Kujo Toru.

"All right."

Kujo Toru clenched his right fist, severing the connection between Suzumoto Cocoon and the fragments, and sighed softly:

"If you can't do it, then it seems I'll have to carry this thing with me."

"What... exactly is this thing?"

Suzumoto Mayu was still somewhat frightened, and she tightly gripped Kujo Toru's hair with both hands.

In that short time, she was hit by a great deal of foul air and was almost corrupted into a vengeful spirit.

How could there be something so terrifying, and this is only a broken part?

With her small mind, it was hard for her to imagine how terrifying the complete thing would be.

How come this big devil dares to pick up all sorts of random things into his home?!

"A fragment of the Shikon Jewel".

Volume 1: Chapter 181 (4K) Sorry, I didn't see you just now

To be honest, Kujo Toru was somewhat disappointed that the silver chest had produced such a golden light and caused such a commotion, only to give him a fragment of the Shikon Jewel.

But upon closer reflection, I've come to terms with it.

After all, it's just a silver chest, so you can't expect to get anything better from it.

The Shikon Jewel is, after all, a precious jewel formed from the souls of the priestess Midori and many great yokai. In terms of value alone, even a fragment is more precious than the heart of the White Serpent God.

However, for him now, a shard of the Shikon Jewel the size of a fingernail is no longer of much use; the complete shard in Kikyo's possession would be much more effective.

However, a complete Shikon Jewel cannot be obtained from a silver treasure chest; at least a gold treasure chest offers a slight chance.
