Tokyo: My Hundred Demon Scroll

"You mean foxes and cats?"

Hayasaka Nao also noticed this and looked at Gu Yun curiously.

“To go to the next life, we need to possess a special thing, and our appearance will also change,” Gu Yun said. “These paper figures can make us transform into different forms. The one in my mother’s hand is a fox, and the one in my sister’s hand is a cat.”

“It feels so fun!”

It's funny as it may be, but if you turn into an animal, how will you eat or soak in a hot spring?

"It's not a real animal, but rather a doll-like figure."

"Like a mascot in an amusement park?"

Nao Hayasaka thought of the fairies in Amagi Brilliant Park, and Gu Yun quickly nodded: "Yes, that's exactly what they look like."

"That's pretty cute."

Tamaki Iijima didn't mind at all; on the contrary, she thought it would be very interesting to be able to change her appearance and play in another world.

“The main problem is that there are many gods in the next life,” Gu Yun said. “Although you can wear a mask, it is difficult to completely block the gods’ spying with just this little bit of cover.”

Gu Yun dared not joke about the safety of her mother, her sister, and the little ones.

Doll-shaped talismans are the best choice.

Even if someone saw it, it was covered by a leather cloak, so there was no way they could see through it.

Are there any other options?

Iijima Tamaki moved closer to Gu Yun, looking at the stack of talismans in his hand: "Do you have any more unique little animals?"

The main problem is that there are too many fox spirits at Konohana-tei.

Tamaki Iijima thought they would definitely choose the fox.

So a whole bunch of fox spirits were mixed together, and Iijima Tamaki was afraid that Tanigumo wouldn't be able to find her later.

"Allah, Mother."

Gu Yun saw through her mother's thoughts and said that she would arrange for her to stay by her side and that she would also prepare an identity for her: "Foxes are very cute, and I have specially designed an image for you, Mother, which is different from Xiao You and the others."

"Oh, that's good, that's good."

Iijima Tamaki happily accepted the talisman, muttering to herself, "Kotani Kumo specially designed it for Mom, hehehe..."

"I…"

Before Hayasaka Nao could speak, Gu Yun said, "Don't worry, the cat was specially designed, it's absolutely adorable!"

“If Sister Naiyang doesn’t like it,” Gu Yun spread out the talisman paper in his hand, “there are also rabbits, dolphins, penguins, red pandas and giant pandas here. Whatever you want, I’ll make one for you on the spot.”

"..."

Tamaki Iijima stared in shock at her beloved son, and suddenly the talisman in her hand lost its appeal.

Even biting her handkerchief didn't help.

Hayasaka Nao was originally intended as a child bride by Iijima Tamaki for Tanigumo. She dug her own grave, so she has to fill it in, even if she has to kneel down.

"Good evening, Gu Yun~~~"

Just then, Hiratsuka Shizuka's voice came from outside the door.

The girl didn't go through the front; instead, she used her amazing physical abilities to scale the wall and enter, completely disregarding Gu Yun's barrier and the Iijima family's surveillance.

The shikigami in the courtyard saw this scene but ignored it.

They all recognized Hiratsuka Shizuka and knew she was Gu Yun's childhood friend. Moreover, this girl was completely blind to yokai, which allowed her to barge into the living room as if it were her own home.

"Oh, Nao-nee and Auntie are here too?"

Hiratsuka Shizuka blurted out the words, but immediately realized the problem: "Um, I, I mean..."

"Aunt?!"

Tamaki Iijima slammed down her chopsticks and went over to pinch and knead Shizuka's adorable face, saying, "Call me 'older sister,' Tamaki-neechan! Sister!"

"Huan, Huan-jiejie, waaaaah."

After being severely reprimanded by Tamaki Iijima, Hiratsuka Shizuka obediently sat down, holding a paper cat figure in her hand, examining it carefully.

"Do you have any rabbits, Gu Yun?"

"Give."

Gu Yun handed the rabbit paper doll to Naiyang, thinking to himself that his older sister really did like rabbits.

It's no wonder she's from Kaguya-sama: Love Is War; she really has a connection with rabbits.

"Eh~~"

Hiratsuka Shizuka pouted and said, "Gu Yun, it seems you didn't invite me. If you hadn't suddenly come over, I wouldn't have known there was an event tonight."

Gu Yun had called her earlier, and Mrs. Hiratsuka said that Jing Ke'ai had gone to a classmate's house to play.

Since Hiratsuka Shizuka had her own things to do, Gu Yun didn't specifically call her back.

"Whew~ I'm so lucky!"

Hiratsuka Shizuka didn't care about this at all; she just felt that something had suddenly happened at her classmate's house, and she was just lucky to have come to Tanigumo's house on her way.

"By the way, has Chihiro's matter been resolved?"

Since Shizuka could see that Kumo would take the Iijima family on a trip to another world, Chihiro must have been saved.

There's really not much to say about this, since it was Gu Yun who personally took action.

Having witnessed his battle with Higa Kotoko, Hiratsuka Shizuka had a general idea of ​​Tanigumo's strength; in any case, he was invincible.

"This event is all for that child."

Gu Yun told them about Qianxun's situation: "I will pass on the message, and you should do the same. You should try your best to act like gods."

"The gods..."

"It's alright," Gu Yun said, noticing their nervousness. "Be a little more arrogant, a little more domineering, the more haughty the better!"

Gu Yun had seen through the cowardly and bullying staff at the bathhouse.

Being gentle with them won't work; you have to be tough.

The fiercer you are, the more they will fear you.

On the contrary, they will only take advantage of you and think you are weak and easy to bully.

Chapter 150 Searching for Incense

"Being arrogant is my forte!"

Don't you even know what kind of background Hiratsuka Shizuka has? The title of Yakuza Oni-hime is not just for show.

"Please try to tone down your words as much as possible."

Gu Yun saw through Hiratsuka Shizuka's thoughts, and he didn't object to the girl playing the role of a yakuza boss, leaving the bathhouse staff speechless in their broken Japanese.

But he went there to play the role of a god.

Is it really okay to just drift along like this?

"Gu Yun, you bought so much perfume, are you going to cast some kind of spell?"

Hiratsuka Shizuka smelled it as soon as she entered, and now she had a look on her face that said, "Let me see it!" Gu Yun said helplessly, "It's not magic, it's to summon a new shikigami."

She repeated the explanations she had given to her mother and Nao to Shizuka once more.

“In my memory, Xunxiangxing was a gentle and kind young man,” Gu Yun said. “If you want incense, I will ask him to make some for you.”

High-end perfumes are very popular among modern women, including Tamaki Iijima.

Well, Jingke is not included in this list.

Compared to cosmetics and such, this girl prefers swords, spears, sticks, and martial arts manuals.

"Now…"

"Everyone, please be quiet," Gu Yun said. "I'm going to summon him."

The group followed Gu Yun to the courtyard, watching him walk into the perfume, raise his fingers in a hand seal, and softly call out to the dark night sky: "Wake up, Seeker of Fragrance."

"Hu~~"

As the call ended, the perfume bottles in the courtyard, which resembled a sea of ​​flowers, clinked together crisply.

All that could be seen was smoke of various colors rising from the bottle opening, like paint applied to the black night sky, turning the entire night sky into a colorful and magnificent painting.

"It smells good."

"This taste is so reassuring."

"What an exquisite fragrance..."

The three women smelled the fragrance; it was neither strong nor pungent, but rather gave them a gentle and peaceful feeling.

Comfortable, peaceful, it's as if my body and mind are immersed in an ocean of fragrance.

"Is it you who is calling my name?"

Appearing before Gu Yun was a white-haired youth. He was dressed in white, handsome, and wore a silver veil. He was surrounded by a fragrant aroma.

Xunxiangxing's voice was very gentle.

Just like the divine child in the background story of Onmyoji that Gu Yun knows, Xunxiangxing, created by him, is also a shikigami that leans towards justice and kindness.

"Hello, my name is Gu Yun."

"Lord Gu Yun."

Xunxiangxing closed his eyes slightly, but he had not lost his sight.

Rather than seeing with his eyes, Xunxiangxing prefers to smell the world, seeking out fragrances that bring him joy and peace.

"You are truly an enlightened and benevolent ruler."

In his perception, Gu Yun was like an orchid, noble and refined, aloof and indifferent.

"Thank you."
