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

Golden particles continued to dissipate.

Recalling the woman's lip reading earlier:

Please, please, let Little Cocoon go.

"I will take good care of her."

Kujo Toru nodded.

Volume 1: Chapter 77 I am but a humble servant; please offer your guidance.

【Thanks】

He spoke without a sound.

The woman's figure gradually became ethereal.

The resentment within him was being rapidly purified by the spiritual power of the Divine Sword and Kujo Toru.

A sliver of clarity seemed to have returned to his dark eyes.

She looked at Suzumoto Mayu intently, her eyes filled with longing.

A forced smile appeared on his distorted face.

She raised her right hand and wiped away the tears on Suzumoto Mayu's face.

"I'm sorry, Mom couldn't protect you."

"Well……"

Suzumoto Mayu shook her head.

"I won't be able to help you get dressed anymore, cook for you, or wake you up when you're going to be late..."

"I can no longer hold your hand and stroll under the cherry blossom trees, I can no longer watch you get married and have children..."

"Even though you are already a spirit, you still need to study hard and read more books..."

"..."

The sound stopped there.

She had so much more to say to her daughter.

But she didn't have enough time.

Wisps of black mist emanated from her body.

He gazed at her silently.

Final opening:

"Remember to protect yourself and don't do this again."

After leaving her last words, she completely collapsed.

Only the stone on his forehead fell to the ground with a clatter.

Suzumoto Mayu knelt down on the ground.

Golden particles swirled around her.

There was no hysterical crying.

He didn't say anything.

His barren chest heaved deeply.

She took a few deep breaths to stop the tears from streaming down her face.

Then he looked up at Toru Kujo.

She understood the meaning from what the other person had just said.

The mother seemed to have entrusted herself to the boy before her.

Although Suzumoto Mayu felt she could survive on her own, she decided to respect her mother's last wish.

"Suzumoto Mayu, I am not very talented, please take care of me in the future."

He stood up from the ground, crossed his hands in front of his lower abdomen, bowed deeply to Kujo Toru, and spoke solemnly.

However, the only response she received was from the boy:

"Get out of the way!"

The temperature inside the factory has dropped even further.

The oppressive atmosphere was stirred up.

A strong wind suddenly blew in from somewhere.

Suzumoto Mayu trembled and looked up at the sky.

The deep, dark resentment in the air did not dissipate.

Instead, it became entangled with the scarlet, foul threads, forming a huge vortex.

Crimson lightning swirled within it.

A strong sense of foreboding weighed on her heart.

A dark figure was suddenly thrown in front of her.

It was a teddy bear that had originally been tied up and stuffed into Kujo Tetsu's bag.

It is also the place where her spirit resides.

"You go out first."

Kujo Tetsu stood in front of her, facing the vortex in mid-air.

Two streaks of light, one gold and one silver, emerged from his body and hovered in the air.

It drew one dazzling, flowing line after another.

The dissipating black mist and foul air could not break through the boundary drawn by the flowing light.

Can we win?

Suzumoto Mayu looked toward the center of the vortex.

The stone embedded in my mother's forehead is right there.

It constantly inhales and exhales the resentment and foul air in the air.

With each swallow and exhale, it becomes stronger.

With just that brief glance, her spirit showed signs of instability.

Suzumoto Mayu quickly looked away.

All she knew was that after her mother left home that day, she reappeared as a vengeful spirit.

I have no idea what happened in between.

I have no idea what this stone is.

But she could feel a terrifying sense of oppression coming from above.

Like an abyss, like a prison.

simply……

It's just like a great monster from mythology that makes all armies flee in terror.

"Don't worry, we'll win."

Kujo didn't even turn his head back.

Holding the sword with both hands.

Standing in front of her.

Chiba City.

Sonegaya Residence.

An elderly man wearing a black haori with dragon scale patterns is engrossed in reading documents.

A pale blue butterfly fluttered in.

Each time it flaps its wings, it scatters fluorescent scales.

It was so beautiful that it didn't seem like a creature that existed in reality.

"The Killing Stone fragment has been activated."

A clear, youthful voice rang out from within.

Soneya Kozo stopped writing, leaving a blot of ink on the paper.

Startled, she looked up at the butterfly.

"How could that be? They were just three thugs, weren't they? How could that woman..."

Before he could finish speaking, Sone Koyasuzo was interrupted:

"That woman, Yukinoshita, notified the orphans of Seifu Taisha, and he rushed over."

A deep silence fell over the room.

A moment later, Sone Koyasu irritably threw his pen onto the table.

He leaned back in the chair.

"It's my fault. I didn't send anyone to help because I couldn't bear to leave my men behind."

He first offered a self-reflective remark, then, with a look of disgust on his face, he spat lightly:

"A petty thug is just a petty thug, good-for-nothing."

"If I had to say, the plan to let that woman succeed in her revenge, completely transform her into a demon, and then use her resentment to nourish the Sesshoseki fragments was something I devised, and I also bear responsibility for it."

The boy's voice continued:

"But now is not the time to assign blame. The adults are still waiting to be resurrected. We need to think of something."

Sone Koyasuzo tapped his fingers on the table and began to ponder.

After a moment, he tentatively asked:

"Do you have a way to retrieve that fragment?"

"I don't want to be hacked to death."

The boy's words carried a hint of amusement as he made a joke.

But soon, he gave his own serious answer:

"I can't enter the sacred area of ​​the Seifu Taisha Shrine."

"I can't do anything about it. The other party refuses to sell the land of the Qingfu Grand Shrine, not even a scrap of it. Otherwise, the divine realm would have been destroyed."

Sone Koyasu had a headache.

"Moreover, the Yukinoshita family is keeping a close eye on things. My men only threw crows at them for two days to harass them, and that woman, Yukinoshita Haruno, started investigating."

"That's not something I need to think about." The boy's voice was indifferent.

"The Lord has given you a healthy body, so you must serve the Lord. When the Lord returns from the underworld, you and I will both be able to serve the Lord and gain eternal life."

"Moreover, in this era, true shrine maidens and exorcists no longer exist. Apart from the purification shrine, no one can stop your progress."

The boy's voice carried a hint of seduction and fanaticism.

It was like a missionary scene.

However, Kozo Sone has personally experienced the feeling of his frail, ailing body instantly regaining its youthful appearance.

A look of agreement involuntarily appeared in his eyes.

"When you return to the mortal world, reclaim your body, lead the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons, and rebuild Heian-kyo, the entire country will belong to you and me."

"Furthermore, to put it bluntly, if it weren't for Tawara Tota, the Emperor's position should have belonged to you!"
