Chat group: My Fist of the North Star will never lose!

Chapter 360 No Monster No Witch

After a brief surge, Yotsuya Miko had already closed to Karasu Tengu's one-inch distance. It was fast, but not fast enough, far from fast enough.

The tengu's sense of time compressed. In the time that had solidified into mud, she twisted her body, skillfully dodging the incoming slashes. Her short, jet-black hair and cold, raven wings danced in the gale driven by her foot blade.

"Don't do it!"

The fierce attack swept past her, only a millimeter away, and the terrifying shockwave was annihilated by the opposite wind just before it was about to spread.

Although she couldn't hurt her, Ms. Aya Shameimaru, who had witnessed a similar move before, felt her scalp tingle.

As the fastest flying tengu in the entire Youkai Mountain, the wind goddess who drives the storm didn't hesitate for a moment and quickly widened the distance with her astonishing speed.

The black-haired, black-winged Karasu Tengu flapped her wings and hovered in mid-air in front of the girl dressed as a shrine maiden. She adjusted her tone to make herself sound less terrified, "Uh, I think... there might be some misunderstanding between us."

Even in the fraction of a second before her pupils could contract, she had already used the wind to return the notebook to the girl in front of her and put it back in its rightful place—in Yotsuya Miko's arms.

The moment she realized that things had taken a turn for the better, the temporary priestess did not launch a further attack. The opponent's speed was completely beyond her reaction time, exceeding three times the speed of Mach. Moreover, the gentle feeling, as if a spring breeze was blowing, further demonstrated her perfect control over this power.

Rather than saying she was manipulating the wind, it would be more accurate to say that she was the wind herself, moving at lightning speed.

The red and white shrine maiden stopped, and the golden light in her eyes, like incense sticks, went out like a laser pointer.

Both sides ceased fighting.

This was followed by harmonious and friendly exchanges.

"Tama, nice to meet you. Shameimaru Aya. Shrine Maiden Yotsuya Miko!"

"Tama, nice to meet you. Shrine Maiden Yotsuya Miko = san. Shameimaru Aya desu!"

"Lord Wen."

The white wolf tengu, still bleeding, maintained the etiquette expected of a lower-ranking tengu and bowed to her senior who was hundreds of years older than her.

“You did a great job…”

He verbally praised the loyal little tengu, after all, the little tengu had only been born for a few decades and was one of the youngest in the tengu clan, so he needed encouragement. But Aya Shameimaru, as a veteran tengu on the mountain, felt that today was really unlucky.

Jagi once developed a technique based on the White Heron Slash, which defeated the strongest demon in the Demon Mountain. At that time, the young Karasu Tengu happened to be present. No, it was because of her that that incident occurred.

Despite being a thousand times weaker, she could easily recognize the black-haired, golden-eyed girl in front of her, dressed in a red and white shrine maiden's outfit, who used similar moves to the man from before and emanated similar power fluctuations.

Shameimaru Aya was like a frightened bird.

She was captured and turned into a windmill back then, which left her with a lifelong psychological trauma. Now that she has finally gotten out of it, she has encountered a witch who is suspected to be a descendant of that person.

Still shaken, she was ready at any moment to whip up a whirlwind, take her juniors, and use her centuries of honed flying skills and superior maneuverability to escape.

Even she herself didn't realize that her defining characteristic was that she would never miss any big news. Although cautious, she was still full of curiosity. She said with great interest, "Then I'll just ask directly - what are you here for? Ah... it's okay if you don't want to say, just treat this as my personal interview."

"Uh... Sister Zi didn't say how to answer in this situation..." Jianzi scratched her head in distress, not knowing what to say. Should she just tell her that she was there to punish her fallen kin?
紫？
I heard a very ominous word. If Aya Shameimaru remembers correctly, there is only one person in the world whose name is "purple".

Back then, it was the youkai sage Yakumo Yukari and that man who used strange fist techniques who came to the youkai mountain and then beat all the tengu to a pulp.

Right!
So the other party was someone the Demon Sage had sent; everything made perfect sense now! It seems that, just like last time, the Demon Sage is plotting something again. "Alright, I completely understand!"

Seeing that Zi was looking at the other person with some suspicion, she used her keen dynamic vision to capture the subtle changes in the facial expressions of the beautiful Karasu Tengu.

It seemed to be fear... mixed with a little excitement.

"Since it's the scheme of the sage of demons... I will do my best to assist you."

"Huh? So the title of 'Sage of Yokai' is so useful?" Thinking this, Yotsuya Miko explained the usage of the "Book of Friends".

"Shooting Mingwan Wen."

The unrestrained and stylish signature, probably belonging to the wild cursive type, also fits Aya Shameimaru's temperament very well.

Following closely behind her, the stubborn White Wolf Tengu also signed his name.

"The dog runs away. The dog runs away."

The handwriting was neat and orderly, with no strokes out of place, rigorous and upright, just like the White Wolf Tengu himself.

And just like that, two names appeared on the previously empty notebook.

"Friends' Book" +2
……

The yokai is named Tenma. She is the great leader of the tengu, who reigns supreme over the world from the castle tower of this yokai mountain. Her gaze possesses a power so overwhelming it can cause ordinary yokai to lose control of their bladders. Yet, the two great tengu guarding her here remain unmoved… even with such immense power!
"Dragon, Rin..."

After hearing the two reports, the Tenma, whose wings were larger than any other Tengu and resembled swords, lazily sipped her tea, unmoved, upon learning that a strange priestess had trespassed on her territory.

"—Leave it alone."

This was the only instruction she gave.

……

The huge banner was inscribed with terrifying words such as "Slay the dead," "Surround and beat them with sticks," and "Nowhere to escape."

If one were to inadvertently come across this calligraphy, even a battle-hardened warrior would be shaken, and a person with a fragile heart would certainly lose control of their bladder on the spot. However, the red and white shrine maiden withstood this mental attack.

After dozens of the hideous and ferocious man-eating monsters were killed by the rapidly growing girl, they also learned to unite.

But the girl who had fallen into the trap showed no panic. "Tengu, oni, kappa!" she exclaimed, pulling out a strange booklet.

The yokai who had formed a bond with the girl arrived when she was in danger.

—This is the story that started with her.

……

Jagi: "No monsters, no witches! The truth of the world, your fist technique will not betray you!"

"Keep trying! See you there!"
