Tokyo: My Hundred Demon Scroll

While Gu Yun was in a daze, his grandfather walked towards Saeki Toshio: "This child is Saeki Toshio. For some reason, he became a medium."

A medium is a medium through which non-human beings are summoned.

"A miracle of one in ten thousand."

"Such people are born with powerful spiritual energy."

Grandpa had seen similar people before, and he slowly approached Toshio Saeki.

The other person showed no fear or any other action, remaining quietly there as if they hadn't seen their grandfather.

"Hovering on the border between life and death, neither alive nor dead."

Due to some kind of stimulation, Toshio Saeki unexpectedly resonated with his mother's resentment, transforming it into a terrifying evil spirit.

"Poor little brat."

Grandpa did not show any mercy just because the other person was a child.

Perhaps there is a saint in this world who would say that children are innocent.

But Grandpa didn't think so.

“Being born isn’t always a good thing,” Grandpa muttered to himself, as if chanting a spell: “Some people yearn to be born, while others question their parents about why they were born.”

"Who is innocent, and who is guilty?"

"I am just a human being, I cannot see through things, nor am I fair enough."

Grandpa squatted down and then placed his finger on Saeki Toshio's forehead: "Everything you have will be judged by the gods of the underworld."

"Soul Sending Technique - Asura (Outer)!"

A blinding white light burst forth in front of Gu Yun and Mr. Takanashi.

Saeki Toshio's body transformed into tiny specks of light and disappeared before everyone's eyes.

He didn't speak.

Neither hate nor thank.

Just like Grandpa said, he couldn't see through it, nor did he understand it.

"The only thing I can do is this."

The Shura technique was created by his grandfather. He drew on the strengths of many schools of magic and eventually built a unique system of spells of his own.

"Of the six realms, the Heavenly Realm is the best, followed by the Human Realm."

"Hell, hungry ghosts, and animals—the three lower realms are certainly painful, but they will eventually come to an end."

Only the Asura Path, once you fall into it, is a never-ending battle.

Grandpa used the spirit-sending technique, so he had no right to speak up for Toshio Saeki: "If he is innocent, he should be reincarnated; if he is guilty, he should be punished and then he can start over."

Every warlock has their own set of rules for dealing with evil spirits.

"This is just my humble opinion."

Grandpa turned around and looked at Gu Yun: "Little Gu Yun can learn, but if one day you get tired of it, or feel that what Grandpa said is wrong."

"It's ok."

Grandpa patted Gu Yun's head: "Just follow your own path."

Awakening Request: Send Toshio Saeki to the underworld (Completed)

How to summon: At night, wearing a demon mask, say to him, "Let's be friends."

The mission was indeed completed. Including the Zashiki-warashi and Momiji from before, there were now three shikigami waiting for Gu Yun's summons.

"Alright, Mr. Takanashi, everything is resolved."

"Ah, thank you so much, Iijima-sensei."

Mr. Takanashi thanked them repeatedly, then drove his grandfather and Gu Yun back to the Iijima family home.

With the paranormal problem solved, Mr. Takanashi was overjoyed and couldn't wait to tell his wife the good news.

If it were some other expert who haphazardly performed some operations and then told him the problem was solved, Mr. Takanashi wouldn't be stupid and certainly wouldn't believe it.

However, Mr. Takanashi witnessed everything that had happened before, which even overturned his previous worldview.

The trust the Iijima family placed in them also helped the Takanashi family recover from the horror of the supernatural.

"Thank you so much for your help, Ms. Iijima."

"This is a small token of my appreciation; please accept it."

The next day, Mr. Takanashi took out the prepared red envelope, which, judging from its bulging appearance, was clearly a considerable sum of money.

"It doesn't have to be this way."

Grandpa refused the payment, and the old man smiled and said, "Just pay the price for four amulets."

"I don't know the protective charm..."

"500 yen each."

"500?"

Mr. Takanashi was stunned: "No, no, no, please don't do this."

Don't be fooled by Mr. Takanashi's earlier panicked appearance; he is actually a top student who graduated from the University of Tokyo and is a true member of the upper class.

In addition, Mr. Takanashi was fortunate enough to escape the economic crisis.

Although he didn't seize the opportunity and soar to great heights like Tamaki Iijima, Mr. Takanashi was still confident that he could take it a step further and barely manage to eat a little bit of the cake's cream.

Therefore, he is actually a rich man.

However, in the end, Mr. Takanashi gave in: "Thank you so much."

"It's just a little thing."

Grandpa invited, "Why don't you rest here today? By the way, there's a nice hot spring around here. You can take your wife there to relax."

"You must be very tired these days?"

"Um."

Mr. Takanashi has a deep respect for his grandfather.

Both the old man's abilities and his virtues have benefited him greatly.

"Then, I'll have to bother you, teacher."

The other party was always thinking of them and had no airs of superiority whatsoever.

No, this is a true master!

Through his encounter with Iijima snail, Mr. Takanashi felt that he had truly met a master in his life.

Are you wondering why I'm not taking money?

"Ah."

Based on Gu Yun's previous understanding, the reward for exorcising spirits could vary greatly.

The Iijima family's exorcisms have virtually no cost.

Therefore, if the other party is poor, Gu Yun will not charge more money.

However, the Takanashi family was clearly extremely wealthy, which puzzled Gu Yun.

“The objects of exorcism should not be divided into the poor and the rich.”

"We also need to consider their moral character and conduct."

Grandpa explained to Gu Yun, "We observe every word and action of our clients during the exorcism process."

A person's true character is revealed in times of great adversity.

Some people abandon their wives and children, while others are willing to sacrifice themselves for others.

"And there's a lot of skill involved in how much we charge after the exorcism."

The grandfathers couldn't instruct Gu Yun on how to say it or how to do it: "You'll naturally become proficient as you get more experience with these things."

"What Grandpa wants to say is, who can be friends, and who should we try to avoid getting entangled with?"

Hearing his grandfather say this, Gu Yun suddenly realized: "I understand."

If the other party is cunning and selfish.

Then Gu Yun didn't need to hold back. Despite making exorbitant demands, the other party, due to various reasons, eventually had to obediently give in.

However, this would cause resentment in the other party, who would not only fail to thank Gu Yun for his help, but would also feel that they had suffered a great loss.

"So they'll think."

Grandpa: "What help is there? We're just people he hired with his money."

"For people like this, we have to settle the payment and the goods completely."

On the contrary, the Takanashi family are kind people who never harm others and often do good deeds that benefit society.

“We can become friends with them.”

"If they encounter danger in the future," Grandpa chuckled, "would Gu Yun find it troublesome to help kind people?"

"If it's within my power, I'll still help out."

In addition, this kind of help is not without its benefits.

The Takanashi family holds a certain status and influence in society, and making friends with them is equivalent to giving Gu Yun a new network of connections.

"To be honest, Grandpa also copied this method."

"Hey?"

"It's the Onmyoji that Xiaoguyun asked about before."

Onmyoji (spirit exorcists) exist in this world, but they don't necessarily all exorcise spirits.

In fact, compared to fighting, the Onmyoji of this era were more interested in divination, feng shui, and other magical arts.
