Tokyo: My Hundred Demon Scroll

Coincidentally, Chihiro has already experienced a journey through the afterlife, and because of her encounters with the supernatural, her life is unlikely to be peaceful.

The girl has a mysterious connection with this world.

Gu Yun could see that Qianxun's spirit had undergone a transformation; what was originally an ordinary person now possessed the potential to become a sorcerer.

"Miss Xiaoling."

Gu Yun politely called out to Xiao Ling and asked, "Would you like to leave the bathhouse with Qian Xun?"

Chapter 175 Let's Become a Magical Girl

"Leave the bathhouse?"

Xiaoling does want to see the outside world, but her goal is the afterlife beyond the bathhouse.

And where can Xiaoling go after leaving the bathhouse?

At least in the bathhouse, she had a job and a place to live; if she left, she would have nothing.

Xiaoling is a fox spirit who lived a precarious life before coming to the bathhouse.

Therefore, although Xiaoling did not handle her relationships with her colleagues well, she was loyal to the bathhouse and did not do anything to harm its interests.

"Oh, I didn't mean for you to just leave like that."

Gu Yun glanced at Qian Xun and said, "What I mean is, do you want to leave the afterlife with Qian Xun and go to the human world?"

"Go to the human world!"

Xiaoling never thought about such a thing.

The fox-woman hesitated for a moment, while Chihiro's eyes shone with anticipation and hope.

After spending time together and witnessing the supernatural beings and monsters of past lives, Chihiro developed a great curiosity about this world.

If I could continue to be with Sister Xiaoling, that would be wonderful.

"Sister Xiaoling, let's go to the human world together."

Chihiro didn't know what the problem was; she just didn't want to be separated from Rin.

"Chihiro has formed a bond with this world, and she can no longer escape it. She will be entangled with ghosts and monsters in the future."

Gu Yun can protect Qianxun, and he will definitely prepare amulets, talismans, and other protective items for her.

However, it is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish.

Since Chihiro is talented, why not help her, teach her magic, and lead her onto a new path?

According to Gu Yun's suggestion, Xiao Ling can form an equal contract with Qian Xun, become the girl's guardian spirit, and then start a new life in the human world.

Chihiro continues her studies, while Lin witnesses the rapid changes in modern society.

Perhaps Chihiro will never become a very powerful sorcerer.

But so what?

With Gu Yun behind her and the Exorcist Association around, Qianxun can completely treat magic and paranormal events as hobbies.

"Sister Xiaoling..."

"Oh, I see. I see."

Xiaoling is a yokai, unlike humans who are complex, which is why she doesn't fit in with the other employees at the bathhouse.

Because they are too pure, they cannot get along with those frogs whose hearts are full of filth and depravity.

If things really could go as Gu Yun said, and she could leave the bathhouse with Chihiro and start a new life in the human world, Xiaoling thought that would be pretty good.

The question is, can she really leave the bathhouse?

"I signed a contract with Yubaba, can I leave now?"

Lin is different from Chihiro. The latter has only been here for a short time, but the fox spirit's connection with the bathhouse is really too deep.

Unless you work here for the agreed period of time, it's difficult to break the agreement through any trickery.

"Don't worry about this problem, there are many ways to solve it."

The simplest solution is to pay a penalty for breach of contract, which is the price for breaking the contract.

Faced with boundless willpower, any price can be measured in money.

Therefore, Xiaoling's problem is actually much simpler than Chihiro's.

Or rather, if Yubaba hadn't caused any trouble, rescuing Chihiro and taking Lin with her would have been just a convenient thing to do.

"Then I'm fine."

Xiaoling smiled and said, "I'm willing to go and live in the human world with Xiaoqian, no, I mean Qianxun."

"That's great, Sister Xiaoling!!"

Chihiro happily hugged Lin; she truly loved this older sister who took care of and helped her.

Gu Yun nodded upon seeing this.

With Lin around, the probability and danger of Chihiro encountering supernatural events can be reduced.

After all, Xiaoling was a relatively experienced demon. When she returned to the human world and regained her demonic power, her strength started as that of a lower-level demon.

If Chihiro can train properly, Xiaoling might be able to reach the intermediate level.

Human lifespan cannot compare to that of demons.

Gu Yun thought to himself, 'When Qianxun grows old and passes away, Xiaoling will still be able to regain her freedom and do what she likes.'

Xiaoling is a fox demon with an extremely long lifespan; she could easily live for over a thousand years.

For her, decades were about the same as a few months for humans.

Gu Yun's arrangement is actually beneficial to both Qianxun and Xiaoling; it's a win-win situation.

"correct."

Gu Yun thought of another question, which was also the last thing Chihiro and the Ogino family needed to solve: "Chihiro, do you know that your brother is trapped in this world?"

"what?"

Qianxun was slightly taken aback, seemingly not understanding the meaning of Gu Yun's words.

"elder brother?"

Chihiro knew this; she remembered everything about Ogino Chi.

But what does this have to do with the world?

Is my brother also in this world?

Chihiro was unaware of the story of Kohaku, let alone that her brother had sacrificed himself to save his sister's life and was thus blessed by the benevolent gods to become the new river spirit.

All of this was too incredible to be understood by the Ogino family, who were just ordinary people.

Then, Gu Yun told Chihiro why the Ogino family had come to the 'afterlife' and how Yubaba had used Gu Yun to find Haku's whereabouts in order to obtain the badge.

"..."

Because the matter was too complicated, Chihiro didn't really understand it for a while.

Upon hearing this, Chihiro's first reaction was, 'My brother is actually the cause of all this.'

But soon, the girl understood.

The older brother had no idea about what happened in the human era. When he encountered danger here, he instinctively asked his family for help.

Anyone would do that.

When Chihiro is in danger, she will also call for her parents and pray that Gu Yun will come to save her, which is perfectly normal.

Is my brother still suffering?

Chihiro then focused her attention on Haku's situation, feeling quite distressed and worried.

Her brother died saving her, and now he is trapped in the afterlife.

Knowing the cause and effect, Chihiro, who became stronger after experiencing the bathhouse, developed the idea of ​​rescuing her brother.

"Do not worry."

Gu Yun patted the girl's head: "Just believe in yourself, you will definitely be able to rescue Bai Long."

Gu Yun could certainly help the girl solve her problem.

With Suzuka Gozen present, reversing cause and effect and rescuing the White Dragon is not a big problem for Gu Yun.

However, Gu Yun did not intend to do so.

When Chihiro decides to become a sorcerer, she must learn to be independent, rely on her own strength, and face all kinds of difficulties.

Gu Yun can help her once, twice, or even countless times, but ultimately, Qianxun herself still needs to become stronger.

The white dragon is the test that Gu Yun left for Chihiro.

She can awaken the white dragon and bring her brother's soul back.

"Maybe you can't do it right now."

Gu Yun told Chihiro not to worry. He told the girl that Haku needed to be saved by his family, and Chihiro was his family.

"I understand."

Chihiro took a deep breath and then said earnestly, "Please guide me in the future, Teacher Gu Yun!"

"what."

Gu Yun had anticipated this possibility, but he was willing to teach Qianxun: "Qianxun, you can come to the spell lessons on weekends from now on."

"In addition, I've found you a good mentor."

As Gu Yun spoke, he handed a seal to Qian Xun's palm: "You have the talent to learn magic, and in your next life, you will have a pair of witch sisters who are extremely skilled in magic."

"I look forward to the day you become a magical girl, Chihiro."
