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

He didn't want to experience that terrifying scene again.

With that thought in mind, he then saw a deeply unforgettable figure on the streets of Misaki-cho.

Master Mage?!

Before the brain could even process it, the body had already made the decision.

Slam on the brakes!

The screeching sound of tires rubbing against each other rang out.

Nana Asano's forehead slammed directly into the back of the seat in front of her, causing her a sharp pain.

"you……"

Just as he looked up to ask what was going on, he noticed that Mizutani's face was deathly pale, a strange mixture of surprise, fear, and gratitude.

Not only him, but the three people sitting in the back row also had the same expression; they had seen it too.

The girl spoke tremulously:

"Hey, Mizutani, did you see that clearly? Wasn't that that person just now?"

Mizutani swallowed hard and answered his companion's question:

"Yes, it is."

Although the adult was accompanied by a silver-haired girl in a uniform, he glanced back at her as the brakes were applied.

Mizutani will never forget that young face.

That was the mage who rescued him from the bloody sacrificial ritual that night!

So here's the question: why did you come here, Master?

Could it be the same situation as last time?

Am I really that unlucky?

Turning to look at his companions, Mizutani realized from their eyes that they were all thinking the same thing.

in silence.

With Asano Nana completely bewildered, it was the boy with glasses who finally spoke up and asked the question that struck at the heart of the matter:

"Should we continue doing live streams in Misakicho?"

"I……"

Mizutani really wanted to run away on the spot, but after glancing at Asano Nana, who had come all that way to pick him up in the middle of summer, if he just left like that, the mayor might mistakenly think that he had done something wrong and blame him.

He didn't want to cause trouble for others.

Finally, the only girl in the team took a deep breath and spoke her mind:

"Let's greet that person first and ask about the situation. What if it's not what we think?"

"Alright."

Who exactly are you talking about?

Nana Asano asked curiously, her gossipy nature as a woman was awakened, and her intuition told her that there must be a story behind this.

He rolled down the car window, leaned out, and looked in the direction the group was looking, where he saw Toru Kujo, who had just arrived in Misaki Town.

A warm smile immediately spread across his face. He completely ignored Asagi Yoshino beside him and waved to her.

"What a coincidence, you're here again, Kujo-kun! Did that document help you?"

Kujo Toru actually saw them too.

He immediately recognized Mizutani, the unlucky guy who was almost used as a sacrifice by the black raccoon to break the seal.

He was planning to go directly to Daimyo Village this time and didn't intend to cause any trouble, so he didn't give any prior notice.

The other party actually seemed to understand quite well, but since Asano Nana took the initiative to speak, he had no choice but to abandon his original plan and reply with:

"Yes, that document was a great help. Thank you very much."

"Is that so? That's good."

Nana Asano was very excited, while Mizutani, standing behind her, forced himself to greet Toru Kujo:

"It's so nice to see you again, Lord Kujo. Thank you so much for what you did last time."

He only learned Kujo Toru's surname from what Asano Nana had just said. He originally wanted to address him as "Kujo Hoshi" at the beginning, but considering that there were outsiders present, he changed his address at the last minute.

"I actually hope we never see each other again," Kujo Toru replied meaningfully, his gaze sweeping over the group before he abruptly asked:

"Are you planning to do another live-streamed exploration?"

"No way, I haven't done this since last time."

Mizutani looked dejected; Kujo Toru's two simple sentences had already made him understand the situation.

Needless to say, it's definitely the same as last time at Shuangqiu Mountain in Hachisai Street City. Master Kujo came here to exorcise evil spirits.

He quickly explained his thoughts and purpose.

Kujo Toru nodded.

That's more like it. He only saved them out of the blue last time. If these people are planning to keep courting death, he won't bother with them anymore.

“Since you’ve decided to switch to doing charity work, then stay in town and do it well. But don’t go into the mountains like last time; it’s still quite dangerous in the mountains.”

Kujo Toru believed that Mizutani and the others would understand his meaning, and his gaze fell on Asano Nana:

"Since you have work, Asano-san, I'll take my leave now. Let's chat again when you have time."

After saying that, he tugged at Yoshino Asatake's sleeve, and the two quickly left the main street of Misaki-cho and disappeared around the corner.

Only Asano Nana's bewildered voice remained:

"Hey, wait a minute..."

She stomped her foot, looking at the figure of Kujo Toru that had disappeared from her sight, and felt somewhat unwilling: "Honestly, I was planning to ask Kujo-kun for his phone number."

"Um, Asano-san, let's hurry up and get to the town hall, it's getting late."

Unlike the fear he felt when he saw Kujo Toru before, Mizutani is now quite at ease.

Since Master Kujo said to stay in town, it must be safe there. We can confidently begin our first battle in this transformation.

As for the dangerous things in the mountains, let's leave that to Master Kujo to deal with.

As the sun gradually set in the west, the sky turned orange-yellow.

Kujo Toru and Asagi Yoshino walked along the rugged mountain path.

The light in the forest was very dim, the shadows of the trees stretched out in the darkness, and every now and then startled birds would fly out.

Fortunately, although it is remote, it has been developed by humans for hundreds of years, so there are not many wild beasts, and even small animals are rare.

It wasn't like the Warring States period, where in addition to monsters, there were also snakes, insects, wolves, and jackals.

For convenience, Kujo Toru had already taken the sacred swords Kujimi Mijima Kanesada and Ama no Kusanagi out of his backpack and clipped them to his waist.

Asatake Yoshino, holding the sacred sword Muramaru that she had specially brought from the shrine for this trip, followed behind Kujo Toru with a wary expression.

The mountains were high and the forests were dense, but neither of them were ordinary people, and the difficulty of the journey did not affect them.

As for Cong Yu, she had already returned to the sword.

On the way, Kujo Tetsuya began to tell Asatake Yoshino about the information he currently had:

"The landslide ten years ago triggered a mudslide that not only swallowed up Daimiya Village, but also cut off the Kurokawa River that runs through the entire Misaki Town, forming a barrier lake."

He learned all of this from the documents that Nana Asano gave him.

The relevant information had long been blocked by the town government, and along with the mudslide tragedy, no related information could be found online.

It was because of this that Yoshino Asatake learned for the first time that Daimimura had disappeared.

"The villagers of that generation of Miyamura..."

“Completely wiped out, no one survived.” Even as he recounted this tragedy, Kujo Toru’s tone remained completely unchanged.

Compared to Yoshino Asatake, who stayed in Suiori Town simply exorcising nearby vengeful spirits and demons and cleansing impurities at shrine festivals, the scenes he experienced were far too grand.

Putting everything else aside, he still has one of the legendary Three Noble Children, Tsukiyomi, residing in his body.

Although it's not from the real world.

This nonchalant attitude, ironically, gave Yoshino Asatake a real sense of "Ah, so Lord Kujo really is a god."

After spending more than a day with him, Kujo Toru's behavior was so normal that she even wondered if Lady Murasame had made a mistake.

Unfortunately, she didn't know that Cong Yu had indeed made a mistake.

However, Kujo Toru was too lazy to explain it, so he simply used the explanation of a living god to gloss over the matter.

"What then?"

"Later, the mayor considered dredging the dam, but because the water level of the dammed lake was too high, if it were breached, it would trigger a flash flood that would submerge the entire town of Misaki. In addition, after an evaluation by experts, it was determined that the dammed lake would not pose a risk of breaching, so the plan was abandoned."

Kujo Toru turned around and glanced at Takeshi Yoshino.

Meeting her puzzled look, I added:

"Therefore, we need to keep the scale of our fight against Yatogami as small as possible and use as few powerful secret techniques as possible."

"The collapse of the forest is not a big deal, but we must not let the landslide dam collapse, otherwise Misaki Town will suffer."

The landslide dam collapsed, what about us?

Asahi Yoshino looked completely bewildered.

She understood each word, but she didn't understand how they could be combined into a sentence.

Is it possible for a landslide dam to breach itself?

She wanted to ask Kujo Toru if he was joking or exaggerating, but seeing the genuine seriousness on his face, Asahi Yoshino remained silent.

He gave a soft "hmm," then lowered his head to look at the Murasame in his hand, lost in thought.

Are there really secret techniques passed down in shrines that can collapse forests and cause landslide dams to break down?

However, Kujo Toru didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said.

Back when he was exorcising the black raccoon, he used the seal left behind by the previous purification shrine sword priest to launch the ritual of returning the sacred gorge.

Then he cleaved half of Shuangqiu Mountain in two sword strikes.

Everyone here is a successor to the shrine. Since our families have this kind of tradition, we should extend that to others. When the ancestors of the Asabu family sealed Yato-gami, they should have left a similar contingency plan.

That Yoshino Asahi should be able to do the same thing... right?

"By the way, does your Suiori Shrine really have absolutely no record of Daimiya?"

Just to be on the safe side, even though he had talked to Yoshino Asatake before, Toru Kujo still planned to double-check.

He always felt that there was something hidden behind the past of Yatogami and the Asabu family.

However, Asahi Yoshino simply shook her head and frankly told him:

"Perhaps the ancestors of the Asabu family left behind some relevant information, but among the records I have left in the shrine, I can only find that Daimimura is the place where Yato-gami was sealed."

Kujo Toru nodded and did not ask any further questions.

Since that's the case, we'll have to search the ruins of Kurokawa Shrine first.

It was during this time that he felt the moon rabbit inside him suddenly stir, as if telling him something.

I subconsciously looked up and realized that it had already gotten dark.

The night sky was filled with stars, but the bright white moon was nowhere to be seen.

A moonless night.

Volume 1: Chapter 193 (6K) I still prefer your unruly self.

"Is it already dark?"

Asagi Yoshino took out her phone from the pocket of her skirt and glanced at the time displayed on it.

Six o'clock in the afternoon.
