Tokyo: My Hundred Demon Scroll

The spider lily glanced back at the two ahead. Being a pure love type, she didn't quite understand Reiko's joke: 'It feels a bit frivolous…'

Is she trying to seduce her master?

'oh!'

Suddenly, the red spider lily understood: 'So that's how it is!'

In the shallow understanding of humanity of the other shore flower, Miss Lingzi is like an eight-foot-tall woman who wants to devour Gu Yun completely.

Should I protect my master?

'Feel…'

The Spider Lily is a rather innocent spirit; she isn't shy, but unlike shikigami like Miketsu, she doesn't understand human hearts: 'There's no need to interfere.'

'Once Miss Reiko succeeds, I can ask her for advice.'

'Then, I'll be able to be with my master...'

The other shore flower likes Gu Yun, but unlike the red leaf, she is not sickly and delicate. She is more reserved and not good at making a direct declaration of love.

Yes, the red spider lily prefers to be passive.

In fact, not only the spider lily, but most of the shikigami in the Gu Yun family have various kinds of goodwill towards him.

The ultimate outcome of this affection is not necessarily a romantic relationship; it could also be a father-daughter relationship, a sibling relationship, or something similar. Lovers are only a very small minority of these relationships.

The reason why Gu Yun has not yet been discovered is because he is still young.

Once Gu Yun turns sixteen or seventeen and enters puberty, she will discover that the scroll has a hidden function: to win over her own shikigami and transform them into the form she desires.

For example, you can use a strategy to make Zashiki-warashi and Yingcao become Gu Yun's younger sister and daughter.

You can choose to be a lover, sibling, ruler or servant, or master or servant for the characters Yaodao-hime, Suzuka Gozen, and Senhime.

Red leaves and spider lilies represent a single path for lovers.

Even without these strategies, they would still regard Gu Yun as their master.

However, having this relationship also helps to better verify the identities of both parties.

Just like Yingcao and Zashiki, once a family relationship is established with them, Gu Yun will not feel embarrassed or guilty even if he takes a bath with the two girls.

Similarly, by making Yaodao-hime a personal maid, there's no need to consider questions like 'Does my master like me?'

The purpose of the scroll-style shikigami guide is to allow Gu Yun to clarify his relationship with each shikigami.

This makes it easier for each other to get along.

"Does a scroll painting have this function?"

Gu Yun was somewhat surprised. He found that Lingzi's understanding and knowledge of the scroll seemed to be even more profound than his own: "Is it reversible? Or once the relationship is established, it can never be changed?"

"It can be changed."

Reiko said, "This kind of strategy is more like locking the shikigami, so that the opponent can focus on a certain direction and not have random thoughts."

But what if one day, Gu Yun unilaterally develops a different idea?

He can unlock this lock at any time, and then use it as a basis to change the other party and obtain a new future.

"So you need to think it through before you act."

Reiko said, "Once you've made up your mind, you have to treat it well. Even I would get angry if you were indecisive."

"Sister Lingzi, can you also romance her?"

"I?"

Reiko Natsume paused for a moment, then nodded subconsciously: "I am also your shikigami, and I am also in the scroll."

"Oh, so it seems like Xiao Gu Yun could also win me over."

At this point, Natsume Reiko revealed a teasing smile: "I'm suddenly a little curious, what kind of relationship do you want to have with me?"

Chapter 293 The person has been brought to you.

"Siblings!"

How heartless!

Seeing that Gu Yun made a decision without hesitation, Lingzi pretended to be sad and said, "As expected, I am just an old auntie that no one wants."

"..."

Gu Yun never even considered following Lingzi's strategy.

In any aspect, or as he put it, siblings.

After all, this kind of strategy method that uses scrolls is, in a sense, influenced by external interference.

Gu Yun didn't really like the feeling of controlling others or being controlled by others.

Therefore, aside from certain shikigami that should absolutely not be touched, such as little lolis like Yingcao and Zashiki who look to be under 10 years old, Gu Yun will not use the scroll power on any shikigami.

"Oh, so Xiao Gu Yun, you're into this kind of thing?"

Reiko suddenly realized: "Indeed, this kind of ambiguous, coy relationship is even more attractive."

Gu Yun didn't plan to pursue her. Although they said they were like siblings, as long as the relationship wasn't confirmed, they could continue to play the ambiguous game.

Reiko Natsume said she also likes this feeling.

"..."

Gu Yun shook her head and smiled bitterly: "I only ask that you don't corrupt my family's shikigami, elder sister."

"Hahahaha!"

Reiko Natsume patted Gu Yun on the shoulder, said no more, and hurried on her way.

Soon, the boundary between the underworld and hell will be right before our eyes.

Across the water, a magnificent and solemn black palace stood opposite. Lingzi introduced it to Gu Yun: "That is where the Yin gods of the underworld live. It wasn't originally there. It must have used some kind of spatial magic to open the gate directly in front of us."

"It seems that the deity who came this time is of very high status."

Lingzi noticed the importance that the ghosts and spirits of the underworld placed on Gu Yun, and she quietly asked, "I heard that you beat up Huo Tian not long ago?"

"Ah."

Gu Yun said, "She was too arrogant, so I beat her up."

"awesome."

Natsume Reiko could only say that Gu Yun was awesome, daring to beat up even the Twelve Heavens: "And then? She was beaten into submission by Anonymous?"

"Of course!"

Gu Yun said, "After being taught a lesson, they were completely obedient!"

"It's blowing."

"real!"

Gu Yun laughed and said, "Huo Tian is up to no good. He released a death row inmate who was sentenced to life imprisonment in Hell."

“She is clearly a guardian of the other world, yet she did such a thing,” Gu Yun said. “What’s even more outrageous is that she actually appeared right in front of me.”

"I wasn't planning on getting involved in other people's business."

“But she offered herself up,” Gu Yun said. “If I didn’t care, it would make me look like a coward.”

"Then she really had bad luck."

Lingzi didn't know how to evaluate Huo Tian. Such an important person, in the past, Lingzi would never have been able to even see her.

The two followed the red spider lily across a vermilion bridge connecting the two banks. On the other side of the bridge, a tall goddess, radiating maternal glow, stood waiting for Gu Yun's arrival.

"It was this person who personally greeted us."

Lingzi was somewhat surprised. She secretly transmitted her voice to Gu Yun: "This kind of face is truly unmatched."

"who is she?"

Gu Yun had never met this goddess, but could only judge from her divinity that she must be one of the most prominent female deities in Japan.

Considering that this is the afterlife, the other party's identity becomes quite obvious.

"Izanami?"

"That's right, it's her, the Goddess of the Underworld."

Izanami is like the mother of all gods in the Japanese pantheon. Natsume Reiko had never met her, but she had heard of her great name.

"come yet?"

Izanami's gaze swept over the three of them. The spider lily was the ecological spirit of the underworld, and her aura was particularly noticeable.

“Another girl…”

"Oh, it's her."

Izanami knew of Reiko Natsume's existence. As the current administrator of the afterlife, she paid attention to all sorts of extraordinary people.

Reiko, Snail, Goshiro Kotaki, and Yoh Asakura are all practitioners who live in seclusion in the other world.

Under normal circumstances, the gods of the underworld do not concern themselves with these people.

They had a certain tacit understanding with each other.

Reiko won't cause trouble here; she'll abide by the rules of the afterlife, and the gods will choose to turn a blind eye to them.

Let's all compromise and keep to ourselves.

"Lord Izanami."

Gu Yun greeted Izanami politely. He looked around but did not see Enma Ai or even Katen.

"I've trapped Enma Ai in another dimension."

"As for Lord Huotian..."

Izanami said with a hint of helplessness, "She has something to do and can't leave."

"oh…"
