The Exorcism Tale of Hachiman

"Of course, the Isayama family is one of them."

Mei Isayama, whose consciousness and views on good and evil had been completely rewritten, answered with considerable ease and satisfaction.

"Then I'll go to the one you chose."

"........."

Upon hearing Isayama Yomi's reply, Isayama Mei remained silent for a long while, then shrugged and said "whatever" before quickening his pace.

..............

The next morning.

The alarm that sounded suddenly woke the entire Isayama family from their sleep.

"That's quite a grand affair."

Hachiman Hikigaya, who had just gotten up, stepped out of his room and looked up to see a scene he would never forget: a jet-black barrier, like an upside-down bowl, hung above the Isayama family's residence, and beneath the barrier was a dense, boundless army of evil spirits!

"The number of evil spirits above must be over ten thousand."

Looking at the dark mass of evil spirits overhead, even Hachiman Hikigaya, who had seen a lot in his life, couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.

Admittedly, if all these evil spirits were eliminated, the amount of spirit coins he would obtain would be astronomical.

However, he was also certain that before he could eliminate all the evil spirits, all the humans in the entire barrier, except for him, would die before the evil spirits!

Just as the Isayama family on the ground was thrown into chaos by the sudden arrival of the evil spirit army, an evil spirit that looked like a large bird flew out from the army of evil spirits.

"that is?"

Looking at the figure on the back of the evil spirit, Hachiman Hikigaya frowned.

"The Nine-Tailed Fox asked me to bring some small gifts to greet the Isayama family."

Standing on the back of the bird-shaped evil spirit, Isayama Yomi used her spiritual power to spread her voice to every inch of the Isayama family's land.

"You call this a small gift?"

Upon hearing Isayama Yomi's words, Hikigaya Hachiman's lips twitched.

"The Underworld..."

Suddenly, Kagura Tsuchimiya's disappointed voice rang out beside him.

Looking back, Kagura Tsuchimiya had somehow appeared behind him, wielding a katana. She was now staring in shock, sadness, and disappointment at Yomi Isayama, who was leading a horde of evil spirits to destroy the Isayama family.

"........."

Looking at the terrified crowd on the ground, Isayama Yomi was about to say something more when she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her chest.

She looked down and her eyes met those of Tsuchimiya Kagura.

"Kagura......."

Subconsciously, Yomi Isayama called out the name of Kagura Tsuchimiya.

As that name was uttered, Isayama Yomi instantly felt a sense of unease, as if she had lost something important.

"What's wrong with me?"

Holding her forehead, Isayama Yomi felt the inexplicable changes in her body.

She stopped speaking, gently waved to the horde of evil spirits behind her to give the order to attack, and then controlled the bird-shaped evil spirit to escape from the Isayama family's residence.

"Big brother!"

As the dark, inky rain of evil spirits descended upon the ground, Kagura Tsuchimiya turned to look at Hachiman Hikigaya.

The Isayama family, completely unprepared, would absolutely not be able to withstand such a large number of evil spirits!

At present, the only hope is Hachiman Hikigaya.

"I see."

Hearing Kagura Tsuchimiya's call, Hachiman Hikigaya sighed.

Is he lucky or unlucky?

I've only been staying at the Isayama family's house for one night, and this is what happened.

"Damn it, I was hoping to be a VIP and enjoy myself. Now I'm going to be a laborer?"

Hachiman Hikigaya complained, but his hands didn't stop moving at all.

Countless streams of spiritual energy continuously poured outwards.

Just as the evil spirit was a few meters from the ground, a silver barrier unfolded from the center of Hachiman Hikigaya, and in less than half a second, it rapidly expanded to cover the entire sky above the Isayama family's residence.

"Bang bang bang..."

The attacks of the evil spirits struck the surface of the barrier like a dense rain, causing it to ripple slightly but remaining completely still.

"Did the adults make a move?"

At the Isayama residence, Isayama Naraku, who was directing his clansmen to take refuge, looked up at the silver barrier above his head, a strange light flashing in his eyes.

With such immense power, are exorcists truly an unattainable existence?

.

"It's a bit strenuous to unfold something this big all at once..."

In the courtyard where Hachiman Hikigaya was, feeling the rapidly draining spiritual energy within his body, Hachiman Hikigaya couldn't help but feel a little scared of his 'heroic feat' just now.

If it weren't for Alaya granting him the ability of infinite spiritual power, he would probably have been dried into a dried-up corpse the moment the evil spirit attacked the barrier.

"But thankfully things have stabilized, haven't they?"

Looking up at the horde of evil spirits above the barrier, Hachiman Hikigaya's lips curled into a smile.

Such a huge number of evil spirits was like a pillow being delivered to him just when he was about to doze off, as he was short of spirit coins.

"Then I won't stand on ceremony..."

With a burning gaze, Hachiman Hikigaya glanced at the horde of evil spirits, greeted Kagura Tsuchimiya, and then plunged into the sky to begin his reaping!

Chapter 365 Breaking the Status Barrier

"Ok?"

The nine-tailed fox, who was nurturing its core in an abandoned shrine, suddenly felt that the number of evil spirits under its control was rapidly decreasing.

Its eyelids twitched a few times, and then it suddenly opened its eyes.

"what's going on?"

If I had sent Yomi Isayama and Mei Isayama ahead of time to lead the evil spirit army to attack the strongholds of the various psychic families that had not yet united, how could the counterattack of those scattered psychics have been so strong?

"Ming, how's the situation on your end?"

Mei Isayama stood atop the back of a bird-shaped evil spirit, looking down at an unknown family being slaughtered on the ground.

Suddenly, the voice of the nine-tailed fox rang in her mind.

"everything is normal."

Even though the nine-tailed fox was not by his side, Mei Isayama still behaved very respectfully.

However, after hearing the Nine-Tailed Fox's question, Isayama Mei felt a vague unease, since the Nine-Tailed Fox didn't seem like the type to inquire about their mission progress for no reason.

"Has something happened in the underworld?"

Mei Isayama quickly began to calculate in his mind.

How could something have happened at Yanshan Huangquan?

You should know that the Nine-Tailed Fox gave them a total of more than 15,000 evil spirits, but she only took more than 5,000 of them. The rest are all with Izayama Yomi.

"Stop what you're doing and go to the Isayama family and bring all the evil spirits back to me!"

After confirming that the problem wasn't with Mei Isayama, the Nine-Tailed Fox immediately took over Yomi Isayama's body and remotely controlled her to return to the abandoned shrine.

"I understand."

Upon hearing the Nine-Tailed Fox's words, Mei Isayama immediately gave the order to stop, and then led more than five thousand evil spirits, almost without any losses, in a grand procession towards the Isayama family.

.

Above the Isayama family's residence, watching Hachiman Hikigaya slaughtering everyone in his path, the intelligent evil spirits were already plotting their escape.

However, having tasted the sweetness of success, how could Hachiman Hikigaya easily let go of his spirit coin pouch?

A stream of spiritual energy shot into the sky and rushed toward the edge of the evil spirit horde.

Except for a very few evil spirits that were fast enough to escape the barrier that blocked the sunlight, the rest of the evil spirits were blocked by the spiritual flow.

As the second stream of spirits was summoned by Hachiman Hikigaya, a small portion of the evil spirits in the area were immediately cleared out.

Hearing the system report that his spirit coin balance was rapidly increasing, Hachiman Hikigaya took several deep breaths before he could barely calm himself down and continue clearing the field.

I don’t know how much time has passed.

Suddenly, a 'ding' sound from the system, unlike the notification sound that reported spirit coin income, woke up Hachiman Hikigaya from his somewhat numb harvester mode.

[Congratulations, host! Your Spirit Coins have exceeded 50. We have also detected that you meet the upgrade requirements. Would you like to begin the Path to Godhood?]

"The path to godhood?"

Hachiman Hikigaya's previously dazed gaze gradually cleared.

After his strength was elevated to the peak of Emperor level by the exorcists from Kansai, he had actually been trying to break through.

However, no matter how hard he tried, he felt that his limit was right.

【Turn it on? 】

The system was unaware of Hachiman Hikigaya's current mood, and after waiting for a long time without receiving a reply from him, it urged him again.

"of course."

Even though it's hard to say when I'll be able to save up 50 spirit coins again, isn't the point of saving spirit coins to spend them in crucial moments?

[Spirit Coins are being deducted, starting to exceed the host's slot limit...]

As the system notification sound faded, Hachiman Hikigaya heard a shattering sound near his ear.
