The Exorcism Tale of Hachiman

Hachiman Hikigaya looked at Saki Kawasaki with a puzzled expression and asked.

Is there some Kawasaki family secret on the second floor that he can't go up there?

"Are you going to go up like this?"

Kawasaki Saki pointed at the demon-slaying sword in Hikigaya Hachiman's hand and questioned him.

Her younger sister and brother are on the second floor now.

Hachiman Hikigaya charging at them with his sword would surely terrify them.

"Oh, I forgot about that..."

Scratching his head sheepishly, Hachiman Hikigaya put away his demon-slaying sword and then lifted his foot to step up the stairs again.

However, Saki Kawasaki stopped him again.

"Without weapons, how do you plan to deal with those ghosts? With your fists?"

Kawasaki Saki stared blankly at Hikigaya Hachiman, wondering if the guy in front of her had been switched by the ghost in the bathroom.

Why did your IQ suddenly drop to offline?

"Then what do you think we should do?"

Hachiman Hikigaya instantly deflated, and he looked at Saki Kawasaki with slumped shoulders and asked.

"Of course you should tell them to come down first, then you can go up!"

Saki Kawasaki stared speechlessly at the idiot in front of her, then went upstairs.

A short while later, she came down with Kawasaki Kyoka and another unfamiliar little boy.

"Alright, you can go up now..."

After settling her younger brother and sister in the living room, Kawasaki Saki came out and allowed Hikigaya Hachiman to go upstairs.

But before Hikigaya could even take a few steps up the stairs, she suddenly called out to him.

"What's wrong now?"

A hint of helplessness flashed across Hachiman Hikigaya's face.

While Kawasaki Saki was talking, he had already gone upstairs and dealt with those evil spirits.

Be careful...

After staring at Hachiman Hikigaya for a while, Saki Kawasaki suddenly gave him a word of advice.

She then went into the living room, closed the wooden door, and quietly waited for news from Hachiman Hikigaya.

"What a dishonest guy..."

Hearing Kawasaki Saki's concern, Hikigaya Hachiman smiled and shook his head.

Then the Demon-Slaying Blade reappeared in his hand, and he slowly moved towards the second floor.

To the average person, the second floor of Saki Kawasaki's house, apart from the poor lighting, is just an ordinary house.

However, in Hachiman Hikigaya's eyes, things changed drastically.

Four evil spirits were seen wandering freely in the various rooms on the second floor.

Just like the previous octopus demons, they cast interested glances at Hachiman Hikigaya the moment they saw him go upstairs, and then began to flee frantically after seeing the weapon in his hand.

"That's such an easy job..."

Looking at the evil spirits flying all over the room, Hachiman Hikigaya couldn't help but sigh.

Before he obtained the system, if he could see evil spirits, he would probably be as terrified as Saki Kawasaki.

But now, holding the Demon-Slaying Blade, he felt it was only natural to watch the evil spirits, who should have been invincible, flee before him.

Is this what it looks like after you have power?

As Hachiman Hikigaya pondered this, he casually slashed at an evil spirit that had inadvertently approached him.

The evil spirit immediately let out a wail, its body disintegrating into a wisp of black smoke and disappearing from the world.

Hearing the voice from the system in his mind, Hachiman Hikigaya looked up at the three remaining evil spirits in front of him, as if he understood something.

Chapter 23 Curious Ambitions

Saki Kawasaki sat quietly in the living room, waiting.

In front of her, Jinghua and her younger brother were sitting at the table eating cake.

It was her decision to cut the cake before Hachiman Hikigaya came down.

Because who knows what strange noises Hachiman Hikigaya might make during the exorcism on the second floor.

With the cake attracting her younger siblings' attention, she could easily cover up any problems that might arise.

"I am back!"

Suddenly, the voice of her younger brother, Kawasaki Taishi, who was in junior high school, came from the entrance hall.

"Huh? Do we have guests at home?"

Kawasaki Taishi looked at a pair of men's leather shoes he had never seen before on the shoe cabinet and couldn't help but look up into the room with curiosity.

Did your sister bring it back?

This is truly the first time ever...

However, Kawasaki Taishi doesn't dislike him.

After all, Saki Kawasaki has already sacrificed so much to take care of the three of them...

"Ah, welcome back...."

Just then, Saki Kawasaki opened the living room door and came out to greet her.

"Are there any guests at home?"

Upon seeing his older sister, Kawasaki Taishi asked.

"Um"

Saki Kawasaki nodded slightly.

He glanced somewhat awkwardly in the direction of the stairs.

She was terrified when, while she was chatting with her younger brother Taishi, Hachiman Hikigaya suddenly came down with a weapon in his hand.

In that case, it would be quite difficult to keep the matter of the evil spirits a secret!

“Thump, thump, thump…”

As the saying goes, whatever you fear will come.

Just as Kawasaki Saki was praying that Hikigaya Hachiman wouldn't come down immediately, footsteps came from the stairs.

Saki Kawasaki's heart jumped into her throat.

As the sound grew louder, Hachiman Hikigaya gradually appeared before the two of them.

"call...."

When she realized that Hachiman Hikigaya had nothing in his hand, Saki Kawasaki let out a breath that only she could hear.

That almost scared her to death!

Thinking of this, Kawasaki Saki couldn't help but give Hikigaya Hachiman a resentful look.

?

Looking at Kawasaki Saki's resentful expression, Hachiman Hikigaya scratched his head in confusion.

He went up to exorcise a spirit, so why were you looking at him like that?

Could it be that Saki Kawasaki discovered the crack in the bathroom wall?

Hello, my name is Taishi Kawasaki.

Just then, Kawasaki Taishi took the initiative to greet Hikigaya Hachiman.

Hachiman Hikigaya also politely responded with his name.

"So, big brother, are you my sister's boyfriend?"

After the polite greetings, Kawasaki Taishi's face immediately changed to a curious expression.

"Cough cough cough..."

Upon hearing her younger brother's words, Kawasaki Saki, who was standing to the side, immediately began to cough violently.

Before Hachiman Hikigaya could answer, she apologized to him and dragged Taishi Kawasaki into the living room by the collar.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the wooden door to the living room was slammed shut again.

Hachiman Hikigaya stared blankly at the wooden door in front of him.

Why would he be mistaken for Saki Kawasaki's boyfriend, being thought to be her younger brother?

Just as Hachiman Hikigaya was wondering what was going on, a commotion came from the living room through a wooden door, interspersed with several screams from Taishi Kawasaki.

The noise in the living room gradually subsided.

The wooden door in front of Hachiman Hikigaya was opened again by Saki Kawasaki.

"come in..."

Seeing Hachiman Hikigaya standing there dumbfounded outside the door, not even bothering to find a place to sit, Saki Kawasaki felt a little embarrassed.

She asked someone for help, but after they finished, instead of thanking them, she left them standing outside...

However, Saki Kawasaki also knew that she was bad with words and couldn't say anything nice.

Especially with her younger siblings right behind her, she couldn't possibly apologize to Hachiman Hikigaya in public in order to maintain her authority as the eldest sister in the family.

Therefore, Kawasaki Saki still had a cold face when she spoke to Hikigaya Hachiman, but her tone of voice softened considerably.

"I'm sorry, I misunderstood before..."
