Tokyo: My Hundred Demon Scroll

"what?"

The others didn't understand the meaning of Gu Yun's words of praise. The young man stood up first and said, "The person has already arrived. It would be extremely impolite for us to remain sitting here."

"Mother."

Gu Yun extended his hand to Iijima Tamaki: "Let's go and meet the first president of the Exorcist Association."

"That special response department that has been applying to be added in recent years?"

"right."

Gu Yun smiled playfully, and from his smile, Iijima Tamaki understood his meaning: "Hehe, I see, I get it."

The so-called Exorcist Association is just an official organization.

Now, the entire official body is under Tamaki Iijima's control. The mere Exorcist Association is, to put it bluntly, just a dog she's keeping around with her money.

So what if she's the president of the association? When we need money and political support, we still have to be mindful of her feelings.

With just one glance from Gu Yun, Iijima Tamaki understood her stance and what identity and attitude she should adopt when speaking to Higa Kotoko.

"Don't worry, leave it to me."

When it came to her area of ​​expertise, Tamaki Iijima exclaimed with unwavering confidence: 'The official exorcist association? I am the official one!'

"Shall we go now?"

"Not so fast."

Looking at Iijima Tamaki's eager expression, Gu Yun couldn't help but laugh and cry: "At least wait until I've finished fighting with her before you let her know the power of money."

"understand!"

Mother and son are of one heart. Tamaki Iijima said, "Son, go ahead and show off. Mom will never steal your thunder."

"Is this the Iijima residence?"

Kotoko Higa sensed the power arranged within the mansion; it was a super-complex barrier no less powerful than the 'Reversal Mandala'.

The Daofan Mandala is a place guarded by the Higa clan since ancient times. It is sealed with a large number of evil gods who once wreaked havoc on the world. In terms of defense, it is the strongest in the world.

Yet here, even a small mansion possesses such a powerful protective barrier.

"It seems that what Tsubagi-senpai said was true."

Higa Kotoko was somewhat expectant; the stronger Gu Yun became, the happier she would be.

Just like Gu Yun and Tsubagi thought, Higa Kotoko had no interest in power or status; she was simply fulfilling her duty to protect humanity.

In a sense, Higa Kotoko is a guardian who stands on the side of humanity.

"That's surprising."

At that moment, the door opened, and Gu Yun led the way out: "You've arrived earlier than I expected, Miss Higa Kotoko."

'This boy…'

Kotoko Higa was somewhat surprised. She knew Gu Yun was young, but this young age was truly beyond her expectations: 'A genius?'

"You flatter me. I really don't deserve to be called a genius."

Gu Yun looked at the girl in front of him and saw that her appearance was not exactly the same as his impression of her, but rather completely unrelated.

The black leather jumpsuit accentuated the girl's beautiful figure, and with the front half open, a glimpse of snow-white skin could be seen.

Her long, straight hair cascaded down to her waist, tied only with a white ribbon, while behind her, a modified black motorcycle highlighted her passion and fiery nature.

What kind of outfit is this?

Gu Yun originally thought that Higa Kotoko would come dressed as a shrine maiden.

But why does she look like a yakuza boss?

"Mind reading?!"

Higa Kotoko didn't speak, yet Gu Yun was able to accurately express what she was thinking.

"Sorry, that was a bit rude."

"Don't worry, I won't try to read your mind anymore."

After Gu Yun finished speaking, he heard Higa Kotoko say, "It's alright. Mind reading is also a kind of magic. Young man, your ability to read my thoughts is an advantage in itself."

Higa Kotoko desires a fair and just contest, and therefore is open to any means by which Gu Yun uses his abilities.

"Also, you must have cast some kind of curse on me just now, right?"

Not long ago, Higa Kotoko inexplicably had the idea of ​​visiting the Iijima family ahead of schedule, without realizing that anything was amiss.

It wasn't until she put on her shrine maiden outfit and got dressed up that she suddenly realized her behavior was a bit strange.

So she thought of 'cursing spells', the kind of magic that can curse others from a distance.

"Did you discover it?"

The spell was dodged, but Gu Yun was not angry at all; on the contrary, he was very happy.

It's like you're facing a group of level 20 monsters, and suddenly a level 50 elite jumps out.

Gu Yun found the unexpected surprise quite interesting.

"But it's not a curse, it's a kind of astrological principle."

Gu Yun did not hide anything and told Higa Kotoko about the magic he had invented.

Upon hearing this, even Higa Kotoko, the most outstanding priestess of the Dohan clan in a thousand years, couldn't help but be shocked: "How is this kind of magic possible..."

To determine one's destiny, what kind of spiritual power and spiritual character would be required to manipulate it at will?

Higa Kotoko considered herself no ordinary person, yet even she could only barely evade Gu Yun's control through petty tricks.

As for the others, they probably won't even know until their deaths that they were just playthings in Gu Yun's hands.

"So, this is how you broke my spell?"

Gu Yun pointed to Higa Kotoko's attire. As the caster, Gu Yun subconsciously regarded her as a holy and dignified priestess.

However, this boss-like attire caused the magic to malfunction.

Then, just like the butterfly effect, one wrong step led to another, eventually resulting in an error of about 3 minutes.

"what."

Kotoko Higa nodded and said, "I just felt like wearing it."

"Just to clarify, this isn't my clothing; it belongs to my friend."

"Yes," Gu Yun nodded. "Making friends out of thin air, I can understand, I can understand."

“But if you can still cast that spell just now,” Higa Kotoko said seriously, “then I can admit defeat.”

Faced with such a spell that could determine one's fate, Higa Kotoko knew she couldn't win.

Even just now, she narrowly escaped death.

Of course, the most important thing is that Gu Yun had no malicious intent.

Otherwise, there's no need for a magical duel; just having Higa Kotoko break her leg or suffer some misfortune would be the end of her.

"Oh, this."

Gu Yun smiled and said, "This spell won't work on you."

The Creation Star Divination Technique is a forbidden technique invented by Gu Yun. To use it, one must have a spirit level of at least 70.

That's right, this forbidden technique has the powerful effect of defying fate.

However, it also has a fatal flaw: it cannot be known to others.

For example, when Higa Kotoko realized that someone was cursing her, this 'consciousness' would change the law of fate being invisible.

But since it's manipulated by humans, it can't be called fate.

Similarly, others who hear about this spell from Gu Yun can also avoid being controlled by it.

Unless they can unconditionally trust Gu Yun and let him do as he pleases.

Otherwise, this spell would pose no threat to anyone present.

"I see."

Seeing that Gu Yun was so open and honest, Higa Kotoko thought to herself that he was also a person of both virtue and talent.

The previous attack was more like a harmless show of force, but fortunately, he managed to break the spell by accident, thus avoiding embarrassment.

"Please come in."

After his first meeting with Higa Kotoko and the previous test, Gu Yun had a pretty good idea of ​​the girl's strength.

Although Gu Yun is very confident in his abilities, it's always good to be cautious.

"Could I change my clothes first?"

She took a package out of the carriage, inside which was her professional attire—a shrine maiden's outfit.

Ms. Kotoko still values ​​a sense of ritual.

Furthermore, wearing this personal outfit in front of strangers…

No, it was her friend's leather jumpsuit; it was really quite embarrassing.

"Excuse me, Sora. Please take Kotoko to change her clothes."

"Oh hiss!"

Kugen gave an OK sign and led Higa Kotoko to the inner room to change clothes.

'The Great Spirit Fox of the Mitsuchi family?'

Kotoko Higa stared at the ethereal figure, inwardly astonished: 'This aura... it's already at the level of a god! Is it Inari?'

'Leaving aside everything else, Tianhu Konghuan alone is enough to command the attention of the ten prestigious sects.'

Despite her turbulent thoughts, Higa Kotoko maintained her composure, a quality that Gu Yun greatly admired.

Gu Yun had a good impression of Jia Qinzi; she accepted his spells calmly both times.

Gu Yun knew he couldn't match her magnanimity and composure.
