Even Soichiro Yagami, who has made many contributions, may not be able to continue sitting in this position.
But at this time, he did not consider his future at all.
"We must win."
.........
Ten minutes later, Mai Sakurajima, Rio Futaba, and Miko Yotsuya arrived at the top floor of Kyoto Tower.
When they opened the door, what appeared before their eyes was not only the panoramic view of Kyoto outside the window, but also the more than 200 innocent people gathered together, squatting on the ground with their heads in their hands, and the man and woman who were suspected to be high-level evil spirits mentioned by Soichiro Yagami.
The cold wind from the sky blew in through the broken gap in the floor-to-ceiling window.
"welcome."
When the man saw Yotsuya Miko and others coming, a cruel smile appeared on his face and he spoke slowly.
"I've always wanted to taste the flavor of a psychic."
There was a twisted and ferocious look in its eyes as it looked at Yotsuya Miko, Sakurajima Mai, and especially the area on Futaba Rio's chest, and whispered with a hideous grin.
"Very good, six snacks to go with the wine. After I kill you, cut them off and enjoy them slowly."
There wasn't even a trace of lust in this man's eyes, only pure cruelty and murderous intent.
"Shuten-doji..."
The other party's identity is already clear.
Possessing a powerful force capable of commanding ordinary evil spirits, he devised such a scheme, and spoke such words that he had a special fetish for a certain part of human women...
There is only Shuten-doji, the chief of the evil spirits in the legend of Sakura Province.
"Have you guessed who I am? It doesn't matter."
Seeing that his identity had been exposed, Shuten-doji revealed his true appearance. His hair gradually grew longer, his face turned into a red, ferocious demon, his skin turned blood red, and his body began to grow huge, even bursting his clothes.
And Prajna, who was standing next to it, had his face completely transformed into a ghost face, with fangs extending out of his mouth, flashing a dangerous cold light.
Seeing these two men suddenly transform into their true forms as evil spirits, the two hundred or so tourists who were originally squatting on the ground with their heads in their hands all showed expressions of fear.
"Is this what you want?"
Even at this time, Futaba Rio did not give up collecting information. She looked directly into Shuten Douji's eyes and spoke slowly.
"You worked so hard for this day? What's the point?"
"significance?"
Shuten-doji's face became more and more ferocious, and even red flames burned around his fangs.
It drew out the long sword from its waist, waved it twice in the air, and spoke word by word.
"Killing people, causing fear, all of this, just because I can, and I enjoy it."
"Knew it..."
Yotsuya Miko drew out Mikazuki Munechika from his waist. The light golden blade reflected the light under the sunlight. His white coat with light golden patterns swayed gently in the breeze. His golden eyes looked at Shuten Douji and Prajna without any emotion.
"Lowly beings like you, no matter what you do, are only trying to hurt humans. You come up with so many so-called schemes just because..."
Yotsuya Kenko looked directly into Shuten-doji's eyes and spoke word by word.
"You are afraid of the evening star."
"Scared? Scared!?"
Shuten-doji was completely enraged by Yotsuya Mieko's simple words, and his face became hideous and distorted.
"How can I, the great Shuten-doji, be afraid of a mere human!? After I kill you, it will be him!"
Just as Shuten-doji finished his words, he suddenly heard a man's voice behind him that was emotionless and contained only murderous intent.
"Who do you want to kill?"
He turned around and saw a tall man wearing a red Daitengu mask and a gorgeous white dress, staring at him with a pair of brown eyes that contained scarlet blood.
What emanated from the other party was only the purest murderous intent.
Light Yagami took off his red gloves, and his hands turned into sharp claws like those of a great tengu. With an undisguised murderous intent in his eyes, he slowly walked towards Shuten-doji who was standing there.
"You want to kill him? Then I'll kill you first!"
"clang!"
Light Yagami's claws swung forward and collided with Shuten Douji's long sword.
"You go and evacuate the hostages."
Yotsuya Miko said this to Sakurajima Mai and Futaba Rio, Mikazuki Munechika made a beautiful sword flower in his hand, walked towards Prajna who was standing there, step by step, and said lightly.
"I told you that you will die at the hands of my Mikazuki Munechika."
"is it?"
A sinister smile appeared on Prajna Ghost's face, and he whispered to those around him.
"Then please take a look at the gifts we have prepared for you."
As soon as it finished speaking, in the originally peaceful stairwell of Kyoto Tower, hundreds of evil spirits emerged densely packed and even overlapping each other, as if a black tide was sweeping in.
Shuten-doji slashed Light Yagami away with one sword and looked at Yotsuya Miko and others.
"Now tell me, who will die here today?"
Looking at the hundreds of evil spirits that had formed an encirclement around them and filled the entire hall, Futaba Rio, Yotsuya Miko, Sakurajima Mai, and Yagami Light at the other end of the venue all felt tremendous pressure.
With so many evil spirits around, there might still be some chance of winning the battle against Shuten-doji and Prajna.
But don't forget, there are more than two hundred hostages right in front of you.
If we have to distract ourselves from protecting these hostages...
Absolutely no way to win.
Even if Yotsuya Miko, Sakurajima Mai, and Futaba Rio had subjectively made up their minds to give up rescuing the hostages and make killing Shuten Douji and Prajna their first goal, it was impossible for them not to be distracted when they had to watch innocent humans die tragically in front of them.
"Taking the lives of innocent people as a threat..."
Sakurajima Mai looked at Shuten-doji and Prajna, who had a playful look on their faces and were enjoying the fun like a cat playing with a mouse, and said with clenched teeth.
"What a vicious plot."
"This is the weakness of you humans."
A look of smugness appeared on Shuten-doji's red face.
"These low-level evil spirits are nothing in our eyes. We wouldn't even blink an eye if one hundred, one thousand, or ten thousand of them died."
"As a powerful alien, he still regards these weak humans as his own kind, and is distracted by their deaths..."
"I've seen too many of your so-called exorcists. They are so boring and weak."
at this time.
Everyone in the field, including Shuten Douji and Prajna, felt an extremely powerful fluctuation of spiritual energy at the same time.
They turned their heads and saw a scene they had never seen in their lives.
The space seemed to be torn apart, forcibly held open by two ghost hands of completely opposite colors, pale and pitch-black.
And in that crack was the red moon from the other world that they were very familiar with, as well as the thick black air that had accumulated after the death of a large number of evil spirits.
In the black smoke that almost obscured the vision, a foot slowly stepped out and landed on the ground on the top floor of Kyoto Tower.
The pitch-black mask and the burning hem of the black coat caught the eyes of Shuten-doji and Prajna.
"What a disgusting creature."
233 Two evil spirits in fear, the mask that falls from the sky
"Night...'Masquerade'!"
Seeing Ye Xing suddenly appear at this critical moment, Sakurajima Mai was so excited that she almost opened the box for Kyoto's top soft shooter in front of more than 200 passers-by.
"Thank you for your hard work these days."
Hearing Ye Xing's smiling words, Futaba Rio breathed a sigh of relief, crossed her arms over her chest, and snorted coldly.
"Huh, that sounds like something human."
Compared to Sakurajima Mai, Futaba Rio, Yotsuya Miko, and Yagami Light, who were excited and happy when they saw the appearance of Night Star, the reactions of Banye and Shuten Doji were completely opposite. They even began to tremble.
They say they are not afraid...
In fact, how can we not be afraid?
If he wasn't so scared that he didn't even have the courage to fight him head-on, the conceited and arrogant Shuten-doji wouldn't have gone through so much trouble to set a trap and trap Yexing in the other world.
It is very clear that the opponent's power is completely not on the same level as other psychics in the Super Energy Society!
Shuten-doji and Prajna looked at each other, and without any hesitation, they flashed and rushed into the crowd of people who were squatting on the ground with their heads in their hands.
The target chosen by Prajna was a little girl.
The person Shuten-doji chose was the little girl's mother.
They kidnapped a human at the same time. Shuten Douji placed his long sword across the young mother's neck and threatened fiercely while looking at Ye Xing, who had transformed into a "mask" and still had a thick black aura on his body due to the fact that he had slaughtered too many evil spirits before.
"If you come one step closer, I will kill this woman and all these humans!"
"hehe."
Facing the threat from Shuten-doji, a white smile pattern appeared on Yexing's pure black mask.
"Are you trying to scare your dad?"
Immediately afterwards, Ye Xing didn't even look at Shuten Douji and Prajna, or the hostages in the hands of these two evil spirits, and turned his gaze to Yagami Light who was standing there.
"How did you come?"
"Your companion... this one..."
Light Yagami pointed at Yotsuya Miko who was standing there, and after a few seconds of silence, he answered with a smile.
"I didn't bother to remember her name. Anyway, I know everything that happened in Kyoto during this period. I came here specifically to bring you back from the other world."
Having said that, Light Yagami shook his head with a silent smile.
"But it looks like my help is totally unnecessary."
After their last operation together in Tokyo, Yotsuya Miko came to understand Light Yagami's character. She didn't feel surprised or offended that the other party didn't remember her name.
Light Yagami is such a person.
In his eyes, perhaps only Ye Xing could be considered a companion.
If it weren't for Ye Xing, Light Yagami would probably not even take people like him who possess the same abilities as him seriously.
Yotsuya Miko finally understood.
Light Yagami is not gay.
He is simple and only recognizes Ye Xing.
Because of this, when Yotsuya Miko contacted the other party, she did not say anything about Kyoto being in danger or evil spirits killing people, because she knew that the other party did not care.
But as soon as Ye Xing's name was mentioned, Yagami Light immediately agreed to come to Kyoto to help search for the traces of the evil spirit and bring Ye Xing back from the other world.
Kira, a temporary worker outside the Chaoliang Society who is not included in the plan of Shuten Douji and Prajna and has been in Tokyo, is also the most important trump card in Futaba Rio's plan.
Now it seems that it is no longer necessary.
"Yeah."
Ye Xing nodded without comment, looked at Futaba Rio and chuckled.
"Contact Chief Yagami and ask him to come up and rescue the hostages. This credit should be given to my sworn brother Soichiro."
Hearing this, Light Yagami couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Boy, you definitely did this on purpose, right?
Yagami, Director, you specifically mentioned Soichiro, and stated his name, surname, and position, as if you were afraid that I didn't know that the sworn brother you were talking about is my father, right?
Then what have I become?
