Tokyo: My Hundred Demon Scroll

Feeling Gu Yun's hand caress, even the Yu Ju insect, whose attributes are more favorable to the type that it is weak against, felt as if it had been electrocuted, its whole body went limp and its cheeks turned red.

"It's soft and feels a bit strange."

Gu Yun deactivated his spiritual vision and exclaimed, "Wow, wow, this is truly an eye-opener! It feels like seeing a different landscape from a completely different perspective."

The number of direct descendants of the Gu Yun family's shikigami is close to 30, but this is the first time he has encountered an evil god.

Gu Yun didn't know much about evil gods either.

In Japan, evil spirits are generally defined as black shrines without proper rituals.

For example, a village has worshipped a mountain god for thousands of years. You might say that this god is not part of the Taoist system, so it is an evil god.

Mountain God: Aren't you bullying honest people?

Is it an evil god or a righteous god? Is it up to the priests of Shintoism to decide?

Obviously, this makes no sense.

Therefore, local black shrines that are not officially recognized should theoretically be called 'wild gods' rather than evil gods.

Wild gods are minor deities or local gods with a relatively small number of worshippers.

"So, this is what it feels like to be influenced by an evil god?"

Evil gods can make Gu Yunqing irritable, while benevolent gods can calm him down.

This evil god's attributes are different from both evil and benevolent gods; it increases Gu Yun's thirst for knowledge, as well as his interest in and aesthetic appreciation of the structure of living beings' bodies.

Otherwise, given Gu Yun's personality, how could she possibly examine Yu Juchong as soon as she met her?

"Hu~~"

Taking a deep breath, Gu Yun calmed the impulse in his heart.

This side effect is temporary; after a while, it will dissipate into the balance between good and evil.

"Thank you for your help, Xiaoju."

"Put on your clothes."

The arrival of the chrysanthemum insect gave Gu Yun a new perspective that transcended human aesthetics.

"Did the Creator see anything?"

"Ah."

Gu Yun said, "Rather than saying Xiao Ju, you are an evil god, it would be more accurate to say that you are the embodiment of a non-human god."

Most of the gods of this era are related to humankind.

But humans are not the only species in this world.

Pigs, dogs, cattle, sheep, birds, beasts, insects, and fish—they can all give birth to deities.

The chrysanthemum represents the god of molting insects, which is one of the reasons why she is defined as an 'evil god'.

Because insects are bound to be quite bizarre.

Aside from those who have a particular fondness for collecting various insects, most people ultimately dislike and reject insects.

Besides these, there are gods who evaded the mission of the gods and chose to fall into depravity.

They are also called evil gods.

In conclusion, there are two types of evil gods: one is the fallen god.

Another type is the god of alien creatures that contradict human ecology.

"Master, would you like some offerings?"

"Tribute? What tribute?"

Gu Yun looked at Yu Juchong with suspicion: "You're giving it to me?"

Who is the evil god?

Why are you giving me offerings?

"no."

It turns out that the chrysanthemum worm was able to gather the faith of some fallen evil gods.

This means that even without a shrine, the Okikumushi can obtain the power of faith, or even the offerings made by believers.

Yes, a sacrificial offering.

Evil gods, of course, need human sacrifices.

Although this is not what Yu Juchong wanted, once someone dies, there are still evil rituals performed by believers. If no one tries to take it from her, they will basically all be sent to her.

The so-called "no one is fighting over it" refers to the fact that within a certain range, there is only one evil god, Yu Juchong.

This is also the rule and principle by which evil gods inherit their followers.

What kind of offerings?

Gu Yun became interested and wanted to see what the followers of the evil god would offer to the Chrysanthemum Insect.

However, the next moment, Gu Yun saw Yu Juchong pull out a bloody human hand from somewhere.

"..."

This hand is real, and it's very fresh.

"Throw it away."

"Ah."

Yu Juchong was very obedient and casually tossed his palm aside.

"I didn't leave you at home!"

Seeing the hand land on the grass, Gu Yun's face darkened: "This makes it seem like I'm the murderer, doesn't it?"

This world has its own version of Elementary School Grim Reaper.

I don't know about the supernatural, but just looking at this hand, it seems like it was done by Gu Yun.

"Whoo~"

Gu Yun casually tossed out a talisman, burning the obvious evidence of the crime, and at the same time cleaning up all the bloodstains and filth: "Don't accept such strange offerings next time, no, don't take any offerings that aren't strange either."

Now that he's at Gu Yun's house, how could he possibly go without a bite of chrysanthemum worms?

If a blood sacrifice is truly needed, Gu Yun said that she could give him some blood every day, which would be more palatable than that of outsiders.

"I'm sorry, Creator."

Yu Juchong was very well-behaved and sensible: "I will tell those believers to stop sending me offerings."

"."

So there really are cults? In this day and age?

"Foreign countries?"

Gu Yun felt incredibly foolish after saying those words.

The faith of the chrysanthemum insect is limited to a certain range, which is clearly within the vicinity.

“Their hands have been chopped off,” Gu Yun thought to himself, “This is probably not a cult.”

Although he felt somewhat sorry for Juchong, Gu Yun couldn't deceive himself and pretend it wasn't his business.

"Nao-nee-san~~"

Since we've encountered it, there's no need for such a cult to exist.

Gu Yun: Destroy it!

"Come, I'll take you to meet everyone."

Having resolved the issue of the cult, Gu Yun took the opportunity to introduce Yu Juchong to his other companions, then concealed the evil aura emanating from him.

After resting for one night,

The next day, Gu Yun, his mother, and Hayasaka Nao were having breakfast.

The television next to them was showing footage of a cult that the police had busted a few hours earlier.

However, as the unsung heroes behind this incident, Gu Yun and Hayasaka Nao remained calm and didn't say a word, not even glancing at the television.

"Owner."

Xiao Bai jumped out from Gu Yun's shadow: "The slippery devil is here."

"Slicker?"

Tamaki Iijima and Nao Hayasaka had no idea what Gu Yun had been up to lately; they never paid attention to such things: "What is that? A monster?"

"Ugh, my summer homework."

After offering a casual explanation, Gu Yun finished cleaning up the dishes and then summoned Xiao You: "You, help me take Mr. Koiban to the study."

"I'll take my leave now, Mother, Nao-nee."

Gu Yun got up and left, leaving the two women looking at each other in bewilderment.

Fortunately, they had already gotten used to Gu Yun's pace and continued eating their breakfast on their own.

"Xiao Bai, open the barrier and let them in."

The Iijima Mansion has an extremely powerful protective barrier that can even counter attacks of the level of "Heavenly Lamentation and Earthly Cry," making it arguably the safest place in all of Tokyo.

"What an amazing barrier."

Rihan Nura brought Kurotabo to their door. He had transformed into a handsome human man, and upon seeing the changes in the courtyard, he knew that Gu Yun was inviting them inside.

"Mr. Rihan, and this one too..."

Xiaoyou looked at Kurotabo, who had brought souvenirs, and said, "I'll take you two to see Lord Guyun."

Kurotabo: Let me introduce myself!

"Your Excellency Gu Yun."

"Please sit down," Gu Yun said, "Mr. Li Ban."
