As a result, I don't know if it was because my legs were a little numb from sitting cross-legged for too long, or what, but after running only two steps, I fell to the ground with a thud, staging a scene of falling flat on my face.

Even Shoko, a quiet, well-behaved, and kind girl, couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Fortunately, because of the video game, a soft mat had been laid on the wooden floor, so Anya didn't fall and get hurt.

However, seeing such an embarrassing scene being witnessed by everyone was enough to make even her thick skin crumble.

Anya's face, which had been flushed with anger, instantly turned crimson. She got up again, ran towards Kitagawa Yu, and then hid in his arms.

It wasn't until the next game started that she hesitated for a moment before running back to pick up the controller.

Well, so be it. It's been embarrassing more than once anyway.

And she also wants to prove that she's not bad at games at all! The reason she died so quickly is simply because the game was too difficult!

As a result, Anya lost five games in a row, each lasting less than five minutes. She was the first to be eliminated, staring blankly with dead eyes, and lay sprawled on the soft mat, successfully giving up this recently popular zombie game for the time being.

Unwilling to give up, Anya's eyes lit up and she encouraged him to try it out. As a result, he made it to the fourth level in the first game. Even Chizuka was defeated, but he was still alive and became the longest-surviving player.

Finally, after glancing at the time and realizing it was already midnight, he took the initiative to deliver it.

This really upset Anya.

But there's nothing we can do about it; that's just how she is, a complete noob.

Anya: (* ̄︿ ̄)

"Alright, it's getting late, you should get some rest. I'm talking to you, Anya, don't forget you have school tomorrow!"

"Oh!" Anya stared with dead fish eyes, looking utterly hopeless.

You can't beat the game, but you still have to go to sleep because you have to get up early for school tomorrow. Is there anything more frustrating in the world?

Because it was so late, Ayumi stayed here tonight.

After saying goodnight to each other, Kitagawa Yu went upstairs to wash up, then went straight into her room, took out Yuna's sketches and started drawing the background and making corrections to the characters' poses.

Time quickly came to one o'clock in the morning.

Kitagawa Yu stretched lazily, then got up and changed into his Shinigami uniform.

Just like most ordinary people who suddenly gain superpowers would run to become superheroes or supervillains, if given the chance, he would also like to show off his power.

Even if nobody knows, it doesn't matter. Can't you still have a lot of fun playing single-player games?

Besides, this isn't exactly a single-player game; it's at least a team game!

Just as he finished changing his clothes, Murasame, still wearing that snow-white kimono but now adorned with some crimson petals, silently appeared behind him.

"Huh? You actually did add some embellishments as Hiyori suggested?"

"Does it look good?"

Murasame asked calmly, a hint of nervousness and anticipation flickering in his clear, cool eyes.

This is completely unlike her usual self.

Even this question alone would probably shock other gods, monsters, and extraordinary beings.

Are you kidding me? The embodiment of the world's rules of killing, a demon sword that has existed for a thousand years, actually cares about whether it looks good or not? That's just too incongruous!

But Kitagawa Yu didn't find anything strange about it. Isn't it normal for girls to love being pretty?

"Hmm, it's very beautiful. The original pure white was also very beautiful, but it gave people a cold feeling. It's much better now~" Kitagawa Yu commented with a smile.

The village rain of the past was like a harsh winter, beautiful to the point of being eerie, but cold and lifeless. But now it's like early spring when the ice and snow melt, with a few early cherry trees quietly blooming, clearly becoming much more vivid and lively.

"Thank you."

Murasame said softly, a faint smile involuntarily appearing on his lips.

"I've already located 93 monsters during the day. At your speed, you should be able to take care of them in two days at most."

"I see." Kitagawa Yu felt that the time was too short and not quite enough.

However, thinking that resolving the matter sooner would allow Tendoji Sarina's soul to be reincarnated sooner and reduce the number of people harmed by demons, he couldn't delay any longer.

"By the way, I have a friend who seems to have been chosen by a god to become a shrine maiden, just like Hiyori. Can you tell which god is behind her?"

"Of course, as long as I can see the divine power she uses, I can recognize which god it belongs to."

"That's great, let's go—explode, reality! Shatter, spirit! Vanish, this world!"

This time, Kitagawa Yu did not use the Spirit Vision Glasses, but instead directly activated the Evil King's True Eye.

At the same time, an invisible force containing wisps of red mist also separated from Murasame's body, enveloping him.

As a result, since ordinary people cannot see the mystical side, they also cannot see Kitagawa Yu inside.

Even if you move around freely in front of surveillance cameras, you don't have to worry about being exposed.

This is a little trick that Murasame just learned from some unlucky god today. As for who that god is, that doesn't matter.

Chapter 147 Stealing Monsters?

"Damn it! Damn it! That guy is a complete robber! He's worse than a demon!"

Thousands of miles away, a certain god, dressed in a magnificent kimono, with an elegant face and a goatee, couldn't help but fly into a rage when he recalled the scene of Murasame holding a knife to his neck during the day.

Wasn't he just sending a few minor monsters to cause trouble in Tokyo, the territory of the Amaterasu deity? How did he manage to provoke Murasame, that pervert?

"But... that demon sword that only knows how to kill actually has friends? And a weak human at that? Is there any opportunity to exploit this?"

"I am the god who governs literature and exams! Even without using other means, my own abilities alone are incredibly alluring to humans!"

The literary genius's eyes flickered as he fell into deep thought.

Meanwhile, Kitagawa Yu, dressed in a Shinigami outfit, took advantage of the Murasame's cover to run recklessly under the cover of night.

A cool breeze whistled past his ears, and occasionally, when the mood struck him, he would even dash into the main road, which was still very busy even late at night, dodging and leaping through the oncoming traffic.

This stimulating feeling made him excited.

"10 o'clock on the left—" Murasame suddenly said.

Kitagawa Yu, who was running at high speed, immediately changed direction, and the Evil King's True Eye, which was glowing with golden light, instantly locked onto the monster floating on the body of a middle-aged office worker who was drunk and passed out by the roadside.

The next second, his right hand rested on the hilt of the Nichirin Blade, which was decorated with golden lightning patterns, and then a faint rumble of thunder echoed in the air.

Before the sound subsided, the monster, which resembled an enlarged ladybug but had a proboscis longer than its body, burst open with a 'pop' sound, like a punctured bubble.

Although this monster is only level 1 and cannot even interfere with the real world, if it continues to devour people recklessly, it can drain a healthy adult to death from exhaustion in just three days.

So, Kitagawa Yu can be considered to have saved this unknown, pitiful office worker.

After doing all this, Kitagawa Yu didn't linger at all and quickly disappeared into the night.

At this rate, he had already hunted down more than thirty monsters in just one hour. Although they were all Lv1 monsters and there wasn't a single Lv2 monster, his efficiency was still astonishing.

Even if it were Gyomei Himejima and Kyojuro Rengoku from the Demon Slayer world, they couldn't achieve this level of skill.

After all, even if a normal human's physical strength is developed to the extreme, it can't compare to that of a demon. Although Kitagawa Yu only needs to casually slash to deal with these monsters each time, he has already run more than 80 kilometers in one hour, which is equivalent to the distance of two marathons.

If it were Zhu Lai, running such a long distance at high speed, he would probably be too tired to lift the sword.

"But if it's Kanroji Mitsuri, she should be able to do it, right?"

Kitagawa Yu couldn't help but think of Kanroji Mitsuri, the Love Pillar who hadn't yet joined the Demon Slayer Corps and possessed a body strength eight times that of a normal human.

"It's a pity Muzan is already dead. I wonder if Mitsuri Kanroji will still join the Demon Slayer Corps."

To be honest, he still quite liked Kanroji Mitsuri.

Although Kanroji Mitsuri, who did not join the Demon Slayer Corps, is lively, cute, and beautiful, her monstrous strength (capable of killing a bear with a single punch), her appetite (able to eat thirty bowls of rice in one sitting), and her long pink hair (which seems very strange to ordinary people in the Demon Slayer world) have always made her disliked by her blind date.

In the end, he had no choice but to run to the Demon Slayer Corps to find his boyfriend, which is quite interesting to think about.

Kitagawa Yu's lips involuntarily curved into a slight smile.

However, just as he was getting distracted, a woman with long blonde hair, a tall figure, wearing a black leather jacket, shorts, boots, and a black military cap, suddenly jumped off a house on the side of the road, riding a large lion, and pounced on his original target, a monster lingering at the T-junction, brandishing a whip.

"Are they trying to steal the kill?"

Kitagawa Yu raised an eyebrow.

Clearly, this woman who suddenly appeared was no ordinary person. After all, what ordinary person would ride a lion in the city late at night?

There was nothing else at the T-junction ahead except for the monster, so the woman's purpose was quite obvious.

"Want to rob?"

Kitagawa Yu hesitated for a moment, but finally gave up.

Even though they're still forty or fifty meters away, once he activates Thunder Flash, he can definitely kill the monster before the woman riding the lion.

However, this doesn't seem necessary.

This isn't a video game where you can gain experience and loot by killing monsters.

He kills monsters simply to fulfill his contract with Amaterasu. If one doesn't work, he can just find another. There's no need to compete with an unknown superhuman for this.

Thinking of this, Kitagawa Yu immediately changed direction, jumped onto a detached house on the side of the street, and rushed towards the location of the next monster in a few leaps.

Putting himself in the other person's shoes, he felt that the other person probably wouldn't like it; it was more likely that he would be watched by a stranger while he was fighting.

Since he had already given in, he thought he might as well give in completely.

His movements finally drew the woman's attention. As the lion beneath her landed, the woman turned her head and looked at him.

Their gazes met in mid-air.

Kitagawa Yu saw clearly the woman's beautiful face, which exuded a queenly aura. The woman also realized his goodwill, and her originally cold and arrogant expression softened slightly. She nodded gently at him.

Then, under Kitagawa Yu's gaze, the woman turned to look at the monster and lashed it out with her whip, instantly destroying it.

He might not be considered very strong, but watching it gave Kitagawa Yu a strange shiver.

“Bishamonten, a Valkyrie, is also one of the Seven Lucky Gods. She belongs to the Amaterasu faction and possesses the divine powers of ‘Courage’ and ‘Fortune.’ Although her strength is only between Lv3 and Lv4, unlike other gods, she is quite enthusiastic about slaying monsters, and she also likes to collect divine artifacts,” Murasame explained to him from the side.

After hearing this, Kitagawa Yu immediately remembered who she was.

"I knew that super-sassy outfit and that giant lion looked so familiar! Isn't that Bishamonten from Noragami?"

In the story of Noragami, Bishamonten is a goddess who appears as a mature and queenly woman, but is actually very gentle and kind at heart. She especially likes to transform the spirits who are unable to rest after death and wander in the world into her own divine weapons, and take them in so that they will not be eaten by monsters or fall into demonic ways.
