Tokyo: My Hundred Demon Scroll

In this way, even the most powerful demons will feel awe towards it.

The Oni race worships the strong and only acknowledges those who can defeat them head-on.

Male demons will submit to this, and female demons will fall in love with it.

"Ghosts and gods are not necessarily all ghosts."

Gu Yun was somewhat troubled, as this thing was not easy to find: "So the requirement of this mission is actually for me to find a ghost god who evolved from the ghost race and obtain his ghost horn?"

To be honest, this task was quite difficult for Gu Yun.

First are the ghosts and gods. They live in the underworld, and each of them is a martial god or fighting god with a spirit level of over 60. They are not ordinary fighters.

Of course, this is not a problem.

No matter how powerful the ghosts and gods are, Gu Yun has the power to deal with them.

Aunt, Sister Hua, Xiao Hui, Jin Damo—any one of them could fulfill Ibaraki's awakening requirements.

"But where am I supposed to find a demon god?"

Gu Yun stroked his chin: "A trip to hell?"

Gu Yun isn't crazy, how could she possibly go to a dangerous place like hell?

Smuggling is alright; you can sneak in and sneak out quietly.

However, once you engage in combat with ghosts and gods, the commotion is impossible to conceal and could attract the attention of other ghosts and gods at any moment, thus incurring the wrath of the gods of the underworld.

At that time, even if Gu Yun tries his best to use his charm, it will probably be useless.

"Ghosts and gods are all barbarians."

Miketsu said, "Other gods might try to cheat or swindle you, but ghosts and gods will actually dare to rob you outright."

Given Gu Yun's beauty, this is definitely possible.

"Sigh~~"

Hearing this, Gu Yun also felt a chill. Although he was very reluctant to part with Ibaraki-Douji, the One-Punch Man in the game, he guessed that he couldn't care less about this plan for the time being.

"Demons and spirits are too dangerous, Ibaraki and Ibaraki-dōji. I'm sorry, I can't wake you up for the time being."

Ibaraki-Douji is the nickname of SP Ibaraki-Douji, the former having lost an arm, while the latter refers to his state before his arm was cut off.

"Mu" means one arm, and "Lin" means two arms, hence the name "Ibaraki-Lin".

"The only chance is through the resurrection of Kuro Seimei," Gu Yun thought to himself, "Let's see if we can complete this task."

【Hone-onna】

Requirement: Contact with a monster formed from female bones (Completed)

Awakening method: Find a complete female skeleton and bestow spiritual power upon it.

"Hmm, that's easy..."

"What the hell?!"

Gu Yun's eyes widened, finding the Bone Woman's awakening mission inexplicably bizarre: "A complete female skeleton, is she asking me to go tomb raiding?"

There are certainly many female skeletons, but in the real world, apart from ancient tombs, the only other option is to dig up other people's graves.

This is a bit unethical.

Of course, for the sake of the Bone Woman, Gu Yun was willing to grit his teeth and take action, at most choosing an ancient tomb that no one knew about.

"what?"

"wrong."

Gu Yun suddenly realized that if he wanted a complete female skeleton, he wouldn't actually need to dig up a grave.

"Naiyo-nee".

So, Gu Yun called Hayasaka Nao: "Are there any complete female skeletons available for collection on the market?"

"Yes, I need it."

"There are no special requirements. It can be ancient or foreign, as long as it is complete enough."

Complete does not mean flawless; it is sufficient if the basic limbs, torso, and head are present.

"It's done!"

Gu Yun hung up the phone and solved the Bone Woman's problem in no time.

Although they are relatively rare in China, there are actually many collectors abroad who are very fond of these ancient corpses, skeletons and the like.

Gu Yun asked Hayasaka Nao to order a pair for him, and given the Iijima family's usual practices, they should be delivered by tomorrow at the latest.

【Chrysanthemum larvae】

Requirement: Contact a mid-tier or higher insect-type demon (Completed)

Awakening method: Find an insect egg and imbue it with spiritual power.

"Easy! So easy!"

Gu Yun wasn't very familiar with Chrysanthemum Insect; she only remembered that it was a monster in the game that would shoot green bombs from behind.

Although it's strange and relatively unpopular, Gu Yun won't mind if it's a shikigami.

【Blue Lantern】

Awakening Request: Create special spiritual candles to allow 100 people to participate in the 'Hundred Tales' event, successfully triggering a ghost story (incomplete).

"..."

The final task, the Blue Lantern, isn't too difficult, just a little annoying.

'Hyakumonogatari' originated in the Edo period and is a game where people collectively summon ghosts.

The game is usually played in a dark room. Everyone lights one hundred candles, and the game continues until the ninety-ninth ghost story is told, leaving only the last candle wick.

Legend has it that if someone blows out the last candle at this time, it will attract ghosts.

Folk rituals similar to Ouija board games, spirit writing, Bloody Mary, and the Four Corners game are quite popular among paranormal enthusiasts.

"Are you making spirit candles the kind that attract ghosts and monsters?"

"Next, we need to have 100 people participate in the Hundred Tales event, and they must successfully summon the ghost stories."

To be honest, Gu Yun was a little troubled by this request: "Strange tales are not a problem. Just send any shikigami there, and safety will be absolutely guaranteed."

What truly made Gu Yun hesitate was the selection of these 100 people.

If the other party is a sorcerer, or a psychic with the ability to see ghosts, then helping them with this favor is nothing special.

Does it have to be an ordinary person?

Gu Yun focused his attention on the task of awakening Qingxingdeng, and then the description of '100 people' changed to 'Among the 100 people, the number of people with spiritual abilities cannot exceed 20%'.

In other words, of the 100 people required for the task, at least 80 should be ordinary people.

"Inviting ordinary people indiscriminately might increase their chances of summoning spirits."

Having a constitution that attracts spirits is a very troublesome thing, especially for people who don't have the ability to see ghosts. They may be plagued by misfortune and various problems because of it.

“It’s no trouble at all, Master.”

Since it was the last task, Gu Yun called in all the direct lineage shikigami in this flower pavilion to brainstorm ideas.

Yu Yao, as expected of Gu Yun's strategist, quickly came up with a solution for Gu Yun: "There are many paranormal enthusiasts in Japan. They often gather together to perform this kind of spirit summoning ritual."

"This must be very dangerous, right?"

In a world where supernatural beings and ghosts truly exist, playing this kind of game is practically suicide.

"Yes, but that's their freedom, it's none of our business."

Yu Yao stated that every year, many people are unaware of their fate and are thus devoured by demons and supernatural tales.

“So, as long as you find a team that is 100% likely to encounter danger, you can join it,” Yu Yao said. “When the ghost stories come, you can easily defeat them, which will not only awaken the Blue Lantern, but also save their lives.”

Ordinary people may not know where there are paranormal problems, but as demons, surely they know?

As for the consequences of having a constitution that attracts spirits, etc.

Without Gu Yun, they would have been swallowed up by the ghost stories. Now they're just increasing the probability of seeing ghosts, which is a huge win.

“If it were the old man,” Gu Yun said, “he would probably have stopped it beforehand, right?”

"Ah, Snail Teacher does seem like the kind of person who would do that."

Yu Yao said, "But what can you do even if you, Master, try to stop them in advance out of good intentions?"

Out of moral conscience, if a snail encountered this situation, it would definitely stop them from performing the spirit summoning ritual.

However, if you do this, people will not only not thank you, but will also blame you for being bored and having nothing better to do.

Only when they witness ghost stories and demons with their own eyes will these people feel fear and regret.

My grandfather did something similar when he was young, and I tried my best to stop them from playing spirit summoning games.

I had just promised him I wouldn't play.

But as soon as Grandpa left, they immediately started playing again.

What's even more outrageous is that some people, even after being saved by their grandfather once, still actively seek out demons and monsters.

Don't think it's impossible; there are countless people like this in the world.

As the saying goes, even a god can't save a damned ghost. Gu Yun felt that targeting this group of people perfectly met his needs.

"Xiaoyu, do you have any connections regarding this matter?"

"Of course!"

Yu Yao is incredibly influential in the online market; she's a very famous paranormal expert: "I'll keep an eye out for you. If I happen to come across the location of a Hundred Tales or Ghost Stories, I'll let you know."

"Thank you for your help, Xiaoyu."

Five new shikigami are added. Tamamo-no-Mae obtains nine fragments of the Killing Stone, which Gu Yun can use to bestow upon fox-type shikigami, transforming them into his own nine-tailed fox.

It's not difficult for the Great Tengu to find a hurricane.

Gu Yun can take his private yacht out to sea and is guaranteed to encounter big storms and waves.
