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

"Fortunately, the shrine was built with an underground palace, which neither family knew about. In the end, the ancestor of the Asabu family successfully escaped with Lord Murasame and later settled in Suiori Town."

"However, the secret techniques and traditions passed down by the Chaowu family were eventually lost."

The girl let out a deep sigh.

Every time she learns about her family's past, a history steeped in blood and fire, it always leaves her with mixed feelings.

The clues that Kujo Tetsu had gathered in his mind were gradually coming together, and the truth about Daimura was beginning to unfold before him.

Many mysteries are beginning to be solved.

For example, why did Misaki Yomiyama's father use the pen name Kurokawa Misaki, and why was he able to communicate with the spirit?

However, two important issues remain unresolved, and have even become more prominent.

"Please wait a moment."

After saying this to Yoshino Asatake, Toru Kujo took his backpack.

Cong Yu was like Hajime who had encountered a catnip; she took off on the spot and almost lay on the ceiling.

Compared to her, who is a guardian spirit, Yoshino Asatake is not as perceptive and is not able to sense the destructive pressure emanating from the Kusanagi-no-Ten.

I just watched Kujo Toru's actions with curiosity, wondering what this god was planning to do.

"Okay, this is it."

Kujo Toru took out the tourist brochure, turned to the page introducing Kurokawa Shrine, and pointed to the slightly yellowed and blurry photo.

"This is?!"

"It should be your old Kensuke Shrine, but it's called Kurokawa Shrine now."

Seeing the surprise on Yoshino Asagi's face, Toru Kujo explained, then asked her...

Do you know what this stone tablet is for?

"Stone tablet?"

Asahi Yoshino bent down and carefully examined the scene in the photograph.

They were very close, and a faint fragrance wafted from her silvery-white hair. Kujo Toru could even catch a glimpse of her delicate collarbone through her shirt collar.

"Hmm..." After frowning her pretty brows and thinking hard for a while, she finally showed a dejected look on her face and shook her head in frustration: "I'm sorry, I don't remember. Where is Lady Congyu?"

Turning to look at the green-haired guardian spirit huddled in the corner, she ultimately received the same result as her:

"Don't look at me, I don't know either. It should have been built by the Kurokawa family later."

"Really……"

It seems that the Kurokawa family has been hiding many secrets since the rebellion.

Fortunately, I was lucky enough to run into someone related to Asagi Yoshino, and learned a lot of new things from her.

Thinking to himself, Kujo Toru put the travel brochure away again.

Just as she was about to say something, she caught a glimpse of Yoshino Asagi looking hesitant.

"what happened?"

"Um, Lord Kujo, why are you interested in Misaki-cho?"

Asatake Yoshino was very puzzled.

Misaki-cho is just an inconspicuous rural town. It's normal for her, as a shrine maiden of Kenji Shrine, to pay attention to this place in order to break the curse on her body. But why would Kujo Toru, a god, pay attention to this place?

Recalling Cong Yu's words that "the appearance of gods in the world will surely bring great calamity," a guess welled up in her mind.

And what Kujo Toru said next undoubtedly proved this point:

"Because the evil spirit being suppressed over there seems to be about to break free of its seal, within the next two days, so I've come to handle this matter."

"That……"

Asagi Yoshino's face showed anticipation, and Kujo Toru did not disappoint her:

"Tomorrow afternoon, after the Jade Dragon Flag is raised, you can come with me to Misaki Town."

It wasn't that they no longer found Yoshino Asagi a nuisance, but rather that she was, after all, the current shrine maiden of the Asagi family, and there was always a chance that someone might need her.

As for how to break the curse on her, Kujo Tetsu didn't even need to ask that question.

Because no matter what type it is, as long as the evil spirit is exorcised, the curse on her will naturally be lifted.

"it is good!"

Yoshino Asagi happily agreed.

Even as she left, she couldn't suppress the joy on her face.

Her steps were very light, and she hummed a cheerful tune.

"By the way, what was the name of that sealed evil spirit?"

"Night Sword God."

So it was Yatogami... Kujo Toru pondered.

According to the "Hitachi Province Folklore Records", Yato-gami is a snake-shaped monster with long, sword-like horns on its head. Legend has it that seeing its true form will lead to the extermination of one's clan.

From this perspective, the rebellion of the Asabu clan does indeed reflect this characteristic.

Besides, Yato-gami is quite well-known in mythology. It is said that Saito Dosan, who was known as the "Viper of Mino" during the Warring States period, was an incarnation of Yato-gami, but it is unknown whether this is true or not.

If it's true, then based on the timeline, could the Yatogami sealed by the Asabu family be Saito Dosan?

That would be really interesting.

The next morning, Yoshino Asagi got up very early.

To be precise, she barely slept at all last night.

Perhaps because she was burdened by a curse, she could always sense that in the far distance of the earth, the Yato God, which had been suppressed by the ancestors of the Asabu family, was gradually awakening.

But she couldn't tell Lord Congyu about this.

As Lord Congyu once said, since the end of the Genna era and the beginning of the Tokugawa Shogunate's rule over the country, the gods suddenly disappeared for some unknown reason.

The spiritual power of the shrine maidens, monks, and Onmyoji who protected the region was gradually declining, especially in the more than one hundred years since the Meiji Restoration, when this change became even more obvious.

If it weren't for the steadfast faith of Kenji Shrine and Hoori Town in her, she might have disappeared long ago.

Even so, her power is now far less than before, and she can only barely subdue some weak monsters and vengeful spirits.

As the current priestess of the Asabu family, Yoshino Asabu's spiritual power, according to Murasame, is far inferior to that of the ancestor who sealed away the Yato God.

Her own power was weakening, but the power of monsters and evil spirits was constantly increasing in the context of the rapidly growing population in modern society, which once made Yoshino Asatake feel desperate.

Can she really succeed in defeating the sealed Yato-gami and breaking the curse that has plagued the Asabu family for four hundred years?

Lord Congyu never gave her a direct answer to this question, but she herself knew the answer very well.

And so it was. The pressure that had been weighing on her mind for so long finally eased last night when she heard Toru Kujo personally agree.

Yoshino Asagi doesn't want to investigate which god Kujo-sama is from mythology, or why he lives a life similar to that of an ordinary high school student.

All she knew was that there was finally hope of breaking the curse upon her.

So she decided that she had to do something.

then……

"Greetings, Lord Kujo."

Just as Kujo Tetsuya finished washing up and was about to go find Yokota Tsuyoshi and the others with his backpack, he heard a familiar voice as soon as he opened the door.

Immediately afterwards, a silvery-white snowball flower quietly bloomed in front of his door.

Looking at the girl kneeling before him and her breathtakingly soft waistline, Kujo Toru felt a long-lost headache.

But in the end, he sighed softly: "Get up first."

"Yes, Lord Kujo."

Chao Wufang readily complied and obediently stepped aside.

The girl was still wearing her Suiori High School uniform today, with a dark green vest draped over her snow-white shirt, her beautiful figure filling out her chest.

Her slender waist slid down in a rounded arc before she wore a dark green pleated skirt with white lace trim, and black pantyhose covered her thighs.

Her long, silvery-white hair was tied into a high ponytail that hung down to her hips, making her look dashing and capable.

"Don't you need to rejoin your teammates?"

"I sent them to the venue first. There aren't many people in line today, so they'll be easy to find."

Asahi Yoshino answered Kujo Toru's question earnestly.

"Let's go then. Just try to act a little more normal in front of others."

Kujo Tetsu nodded without comment and then walked straight outside.

She didn't feel embarrassed at all because of Yoshino Asagi's behavior.

It's not like this is the first time I've been a god; I'm used to it.

"Yes, Lord Kujo."

The girl's voice remained very respectful.

At the entrance of the hot spring inn, Yokota and the others were already waiting for Kujo Toru to arrive.

Four burly men sat in a row against the corner, chatting idly, sunlight streaming down their faces.

People passing by on the street instinctively made way for them when they saw them.

Their physiques were so conspicuous that they clearly weren't good people.

However, if you listen carefully to what they are saying, it's surprisingly normal:

"Speaking of which, the first semester is over. Minister, you should be thinking about further education next semester, right?"

"Ah."

Yokota, who was drinking milk, nodded subconsciously after hearing this.

Have you decided where to apply? The University of Tokyo?

"Is it possible for me to pass the exam?"

Rolling his eyes, Yokota replied irritably.

If he could, he would also like to go to the University of Tokyo.

With his kendo skills, if he could get into Tokyo University, he could definitely join the Metropolitan Police Department's Gold Watch Division after graduation, starting directly as a police officer – arguably the best path for him.

The prerequisite is that you can pass the exam.

"It should be Kokushikan University, where kendo has a high weight in the entrance exam. If Yulongqi can win the championship this time, it shouldn't be a big problem to go to the private school for extra lessons next semester."

Yokota Tsuyoshi revealed his plans.

He's already a senior in high school, and he only has eight months left at Zongwu High School. He needs to think about his future.

The moment this topic came up, the atmosphere turned somber, and some people echoed the sentiments:

"Thinking about it, I'm already a junior in high school. Time flies."

"Who says otherwise? It feels like just yesterday that I joined the kendo club. I thought guys who knew kendo were handsome and would be popular with girls, but I'm still single now."

"I think it's because the minister has a terrible reputation at school, which is why no girls dare to come over."

Yokota was furious upon hearing this. It was clearly a problem with his own modeling, yet he dared to shift the blame onto him.

"Nonsense! It's all because you guys aren't ambitious enough! Xiao Lin already has a girlfriend!"

Several gazes fell upon him simultaneously, and the meaning contained within them made Yokota Tsuyoshi's expression freeze, becoming somewhat grave.

I almost forgot, Kobayashi's girlfriend, Sakakibara, died unexpectedly at home last week.

An awkward silence ensued, but thankfully it didn't last long, as someone subconsciously broke the silence by starting a new topic:

"By the way, have you decided on a candidate for the next minister? I think I'm pretty good."

"Forget it," Yokota glanced at them sideways, "You guys don't take training seriously at all, you can't even do a thousand repetitions, forget it."

"I plan to hand over the next ministerial post to Kobayashi."
