The Exorcism Tale of Hachiman

Then a series of clanging sounds rang out as Izayama Yomi tried her best to deflect the steel needles flying towards her while retreating backward.

Finally, after retreating more than ten meters, she managed to safely withdraw from the attack range of the steel needles.

Is that all?

Looking at Isayama Yomi lying on the ground, his body injured and in a sorry state, the boy revealed a mocking smile.

That's it?

They could barely withstand even his most ordinary attack. How dare they chase him with such little strength?

"So strong..."

In stark contrast to the boy's relaxed and disdainful expression, Isayama Yomi clutched his injured right arm, his face filled with solemnity.

Isayama and the Yellow Springs do not understand.

She herself is not the kind of person who would be so reckless as to angrily chase after someone who has been attacked.

In fact, after being suddenly attacked by the boy, she first sensed the spiritual power within his body and confirmed that his strength was weaker than hers before chasing after him.

However, within those few short minutes of the chase, the spiritual energy within the boy's body underwent a dramatic transformation.

If the spiritual energy within the boy's body was merely a small stream before, it is now like a rushing river.

This represents a leap of several orders of magnitude!

"You seem puzzled as to why my strength has suddenly increased?"

Extend your fingertip and let a blue butterfly land on it.

Seeing the confusion on Isayama Yomi's face, the boy sat on a tree branch and chatted with her.

"What do you want to do?!"

Realizing that she was no match for the enemy before her, Yomi Isayama became extremely wary of the boy's every move.

After all, she couldn't predict from which angle the enemy would pluck her head off.

"Don't be so nervous. I still have a use for your life, so I won't kill you."

Faced with Isayama Yomi's wariness, the boy spread his hands, and the butterfly on his finger remained on it.

"You want to use me?!"

Upon hearing the boy's words, Izayama Yomi's face instantly darkened.

To say to her face that she was still useful clearly showed the extreme disdain the boy had for her strength.

No, perhaps he didn't even consider himself a threat!

Thinking of this, Yomi Isayama clenched the Lion King in her hand.

Humiliation, absolute humiliation!

"Aren't you extremely unwilling to accept this?"

With one hand supporting his chin, the boy seemed to read minds and spoke out what Isayama Yomi was thinking at that moment.

"You train incredibly hard every day, but the skills you've worked so hard to acquire are easily surpassed by someone four years younger than you. You secretly wish she were dead, right?"

"Shut up! What nonsense are you spouting?! Kagura and I are like sisters, how could I possibly be jealous of her!"

"I didn't say who you were jealous of, you said it yourself."

The boy put on an innocent expression, which then turned into a mocking one.

"you!"

Upon hearing the boy's words, Isayama Yomi instinctively wanted to rush up and fight him to the death.

Suddenly, a butterfly transformed into a steel needle grazed her delicate neck and shot into the ground behind her.

A cold sweat instantly broke out on my back.

Isayama Yomi, holding the Lion King, stood frozen in place, unable to move an inch.

"Hey you, do you crave power?"

The boy, who should have been on the tree branch, had somehow moved behind Isayama Yomi. He was now holding a red stone about the size of a fingernail and waving it in front of Isayama Yomi.

"Once you embed this in your body, you'll possess strength far surpassing that girl's."

The boy whispered in my ear in a seductive voice.

"Far beyond her capabilities..."

A hint of confusion flashed in Izayama Yomi's eyes. She parted her lips slightly and repeated the boy's words.

"That's right! Far surpassing her strength! As long as you put it into your body..."

Although he was still trying to seduce Isayama Yomi, the boy now looked bored.

That's really quite boring.

Seeing how close they were as sisters, I thought they could hold on for a while, but were they instantly fooled when they heard that they could crush each other?

"The Underworld..."

Just as Isayama was in the chaos of the underworld, raising her hand to take the stone from the boy's hand, the face of Tsuchimiya Kagura suddenly flashed through her mind.

"Kagura!"

Startled, Isayama Yomi's eyes instantly regained their clarity.

"Red Lotus!"

A giant lion-shaped guardian spirit flew out from the Lion King once again, heading straight for the boy in front of him.

Caught off guard, the boy was sent flying by a single claw strike from his guardian spirit.

With one hand gripping the hilt and the other supporting the blade, Izayama Yomi charged after the flying boy in a thrusting motion.

Then, mid-air, he leaped and slashed, cutting it diagonally in two.

He landed back on the ground, turned around again, and used a cross slash to cut his body into six pieces.

"So, he should be dead by now, right?"

Looking at the scattered pieces on the ground, Isayama Yomi let out a soft breath.

"hehe....."

The boy's head, which had fallen to the ground, suddenly burst into laughter.

"This is definitely more interesting..."

"He's not dead yet?!"

Seeing that the boy's head could still speak, Isayama Yomi was shocked and rushed over, intending to use the Lion King to split it in two.

"It seems you won't accept this stone anytime soon, but that's alright. One day you'll come to me asking for it..."

After saying this, the boy's head, along with the rest of his body on the ground, transformed into countless blue butterflies and disappeared into the forest.

"........"

Watching the boy suddenly transform into a butterfly and disappear, Yomi Isayama silently sheathed the Lion King sword.

Return to the highway along the route taken during the chase.

Kagura Tsuchimiya, who was resting on the ground, immediately ran over to ask how she was doing.

Koji Iwabata remains in a coma.

"Huang Quan, why are you doing this?"

Kagura Tsuchimiya looked nervously at the wound on Yomi Isayama's arm.

......

"It's okay."

After staring blankly at Tsuchimiya Kagura, whose face showed concern, for a while, Isayama Yomi suddenly smiled. She returned to her usual self, and disregarding their dirty appearance, she hugged Tsuchimiya Kagura into her arms.

Chapter 141 An Extra Large Dinner

"Yellow Spring?"

Kagura Tsuchimiya was taken aback when Yomi Isayama suddenly hugged her, but then stretched out her hands and hugged her tightly.

A moment later, Isayama Yomi voluntarily released his grip.

"I just went to chase after the people who attacked us."

"So what's the situation?"

Tsuchimiya Kagura immediately pressed for details about the outcome of Isayama Yomi's pursuit.

With Isayama Yomi's strength, she must have already killed that guy who dared to attack them, right?

"Escaped."

When Izayama Yomi spoke, he paused slightly.

However, Kagura Tsuchimiya did not notice this.

Upon hearing that the guy who had caused everyone's injuries had escaped from Isayama Yomi's grasp, a hint of surprise flashed across her face. She then began to reassure Isayama Yomi that she would definitely catch that guy next time.

"Ah."

With a forced smile, Izayama Yomi nodded.

The two then worked together again to move the unconscious Koji Iwabata to a location further away from the wrecked car to await rescue.

.........

"Hmph, in that case, Komachi wins again!"

At home in Biki Valley.

Because it was already dark, the Hachiman siblings lit candles in the living room and continued playing their board games.

Finally, with a cheer from Komachi, the first round of the game came to an end.

"This game takes way too long..."
