"What is that? What on earth is that? Why is it... appearing here?!"

Kawakami Suzuchi huddled inside the tatami, wrapping herself in the quilt as tightly as possible, leaving herself no room to breathe.

For some reason, Kawakami Suzuchi thought of a figure, a figure that lingered in his heart.

"It's you! Are you here to seek revenge?"

Kawakami Suzuchi's entire body began to tremble, and the image of the girl in school uniform kept flashing through his mind: "No, you can't blame me. It was the priest who killed you! Not me!!!"

"I have no choice. If there is no sacrifice, I can only use the money for my college tuition. I don't want to stay here any longer!"

"I should go to the brightly lit and bustling Sakura City, not this Asada-cho where there isn't even a cafe!"

Kawakami Suzutomo is a little crazy now, constantly muttering to himself, his eyes full of fear: "Sachiko, we are best friends, you will understand me, you can understand me..."

Sachiko, who had once been her best friend.

However, when Sachiko felt pity for the tourists who had strayed here and planned to let them leave, Kawakami Suzutomo knew that the time had come for his family to stop spending money.

Backstab often happens in a flash.

After being stabbed in the back by Kawakami Suzutomo, Sachiko was sacrificed to the great god Asada, and Kawakami Suzutomo also received an admission notice from Sakura City University.

“Crunch—”

The sound of the wooden door swaying rang in Kawakami Suzuto's ears. Kawakami Suzuto's pretty face turned pale, her whole body trembled violently, and the fear in her heart made her feel like collapsing.

A pungent yellow-brown liquid overflowed on the tatami. Kawakami Suzutomo still dared not move. He spoke with a choked voice and trembling: "Sachiko... Sachiko... I, I didn't mean it... You... You know I..."

Before Kawakami Suzutomo could finish his words, a chill cold enough to freeze the soul spread from the tatami, causing Kawakami Suzutomo to shiver and try desperately to stand up.

However, at this moment, she was unable to struggle free from the quilt, as if someone outside was holding down the quilt, preventing her from breaking free.

In the cold and lonely world, Kawakami Suzuchi's lost motivation forever, along with her dreams, were completely annihilated in the small quilt.

Suddenly, a breeze blew by, and the admission letter from Sakura City University fell from the table and landed next to the tatami of Kawakami Suzuchi.

“Crunch…”

The sound of stiff bones gradually subsided, and a half-rotten corpse walked stiffly towards the door. After dealing with Kawakami Suzutomo, its resentment had begun to dissipate a little, and it could only stagger like this, unable to move as smoothly as before.

“Ah ...

The stiff corpse moved out of Kawakami Suzutomo's house and happened to meet Kawakami Suzutomo's neighbor's eyes, causing a commotion. The neighbor was so scared that he collapsed on the ground and kept crawling backwards, obviously frightened out of his wits.

Sachiko's corpse looked at its neighbor, and instinct drove it to move towards the neighbor, with turbid corpse fluid swirling on its fangs.

"No, don't come over here...stay away from me!"

The neighbor was screaming in panic. The same thing was happening in other corners of Asada-cho. Looking at the approaching corpse, the neighbor's legs were shaking, his whole body was trembling. He took out his cell phone from his pocket tremblingly and frantically called the Metropolitan Police Department.

“Beep…beep…”

There was a beeping sound from the cell phone, but Sachiko's body had already staggered across the road and arrived in front of the neighbor's house. She pushed open the fence gate and walked towards the neighbor greedily.

It's over. It's all over.

The neighbor suddenly realized that even if he called the Metropolitan Police Department, it would be of no use. It was impossible for those good-for-nothings in the Metropolitan Police Department to come to him and rescue him instantly.

When the neighbors were in despair, a beam of light suddenly bloomed from the center of Asada Town!

"All the soldiers who are about to fight are lined up in front!"

The neon version of the nine-character mantra slowly rang in the ears of the neighbors. The sound was very small at first, but then it became louder and wider, gradually resounding throughout the entire Asada Town!

The pillar of light that bloomed in the center of Asada Town began to emit an extremely powerful light, almost covering the entire Asada Town. Suddenly, a pentagram pattern appeared in the sky and began to rotate rapidly in the air.

Immediately afterwards, the corpse that had been staggering in front of Kawakami Suzutomo's neighbor suddenly stiffened, and then a black gas visible to the naked eye was drawn out of the corpse. The expression of the corpse gradually began to become painful and hideous, as if it was very resisting the withdrawal of the black gas.

However, nothing worked. No matter how much the corpse resisted, the black air in its body was eventually drawn out and merged into the pentagram.

When the black gas completely left the body, Sachiko's body stopped moving instantly and fell straight onto her neighbor.

The neighbor hadn't reacted yet. He only knew that the body had fallen on him. He immediately began to shake madly, pushing the body and shouting for help: "Ah, help! I'm dying, I'm dying, go away!!!"

Coincidentally, the Metropolitan Police Department was also connected. As soon as the operator answered the phone, he heard such heartbreaking words. He was shocked and shouted quickly: "Sir, are you okay? Where are you?! Please hold on, we will be there soon..."

However, the neighbor was no longer in the mood to respond to the Metropolitan Police Department. When he pushed the body away and looked up at the sky, he was instantly shocked by the scene before him.

Countless black air was absorbed by the pentagram pattern from Asada Town. The pentagram pattern that originally flashed with light blue light has now turned pitch black.

It was only at this moment that the neighbor discovered that there seemed to be a figure under the pentagram pattern, but it was too far away and he could not see what it looked like.

"Who...who is this person?"

The neighbor held a cell phone that had dialed the Metropolitan Police Department in one hand, and murmured to himself with the other: "Could it be... an Onmyoji or a real priest?!"

The operator was silent for a moment, then said, "Sir, we just found out that you are in Gifu Prefecture. You may be looking for a famous shrine in Gifu Prefecture. How about... I recommend a few to you?"

The neighbor's mind was now filled with this shocking scene. Having survived the disaster, his eyes were slightly moist. He ignored the call from the Metropolitan Police Department and could only hurriedly explain the situation here before hanging up.

In just a few minutes, the pentagram pattern disappeared, and except for a few skeletons on the street, the entire Asada Town seemed to have returned to its original state.

As deserted and empty as ever,

However, there seemed to be a few more words written on the stone in the square in the central area of Asada Town.

[Do not offer sacrifices to evil gods, and do not worship obscene temples. ]

[The evil creature Asada has been destroyed, and the Yin-Yang Dao remains. 】
