Crossover anime, a daily life that begins with hunting supernatural beings.

Sakurai simply gripped his dagger tightly without uttering a sound.

With firm and sharp eyes, it exchanged positions with the large rat several times in just a few seconds, leaving a hideous and narrow gash on the rat's body with each exchange.

He was certain of his judgment once again: a fight in a cramped wooden hut would definitely not be so simple.

"Squeak! Squeak!!!"

Enraged by the repeated failures to break through, the rat roared and leaped off the ground to pounce on Sakurai.

If you were to be touched by those yellow, foul-smelling teeth, you'd at least have half your cheek torn off.

Knowing this, Sakurai didn't want to see that happen to him.

Clenching his fist, he half-squatted down as the giant rat approached, thrusting his fist into the rat's abdomen. With a thrust and a flick upward, he used the power of his waist and abdomen to fling the rat away.

He leaned slightly forward, using a perfect iron plate to avoid the large rat that jumped back again.

Sakurai squinted slightly to avoid being choked by the pungent black fumes.

With a powerful stomp on the ground, leaving a mark on the damp earth, Sakurai's figure vanished from the spot and darted forward.

The whistling sound of something cutting through the air reached the ears of the man holding the dagger, but all he could see was the image of the giant rat in front of him.

His eyes were completely fixed on this hideous monster; it was time to end it.

Sakurai thought to himself.

The next second—

The dagger sliced ​​across the junction of the rat's head and body, and the knee was raised and placed horizontally to forcefully kick the rat's soft belly. The body flipped over and landed on the rat's back, while the short dagger, which could cut hair in an instant, circled around the junction of the body.

After delivering the blow, he jumped backward without hesitation, not even having time to retrieve the dagger left at the spirit's neck.

"Squeaky!!!"

A single blow severed his head, and the shrill, terrifying roar was mixed with the sound of air rushing into his trachea, eventually being replaced by a sob of resentment.

After a few feeble cries, the rat, struggling to open its eyes wide, made a final, futile attempt to fight back, and its severed spirit collapsed to the ground in resentment.

The enormous body dissolved into black mist and dissipated into the air, leaving behind only a gleaming dagger and...

A rat skin, about ten centimeters in size, with gray fur and blood clots.

"Phew, did we win?"

With his tense nerves finally relaxed, Sakurai, not minding the dirt, sat down on the ground, breathing in the fresh air deeply, enjoying the joy of this hard-won victory.

Once he had caught his breath, Sakurai, driven by hunger, stood up and moved to the spot where the giant rat had disappeared. He picked up the smelly rat skin and his hunting partner from the ground.

After casually wiping the blood off the dagger onto his body, Sakurai put the dagger away and began to devour the hard-won food without any hesitation.

In just a short while, the ten-centimeter-long rat skin was completely swallowed. Sakurai let out a satisfied burp, patted his belly, and felt very content.

"Good luck."

Looking somewhat disheveled, Sakurai picked up his shoulder bag from the side and turned to walk back the way he came.

As the sound of shattering mirror rang out, the path vanished instantly, replaced by a neat highway.

Looking up at the sky, the sun had completely set, and countless stars filled the sky.

The sharpness in his eyes had long since disappeared, and the yokai bloodstains on Sakurai's body had vanished. Apart from looking disheveled as if he had tripped and fallen, he was just an ordinary high school student you could see anywhere.

This time they went really deep.

"To be honest, although I don't really like it, rat remains are at least better than the weird and wonderful remains left by humanoid ghosts."

"At least it looks like something to eat."

"So how exactly do you get your hands on those legendary food remains?"

As he spoke, Sakurai walked unhurriedly toward his apartment.

5. An outcast and genius who feeds on supernatural creatures

Speaking of which...

The first time he encountered a supernatural event was a month ago. Sakurai woke up from a long sleep and arrived in this world before he could even react.

They arrived in this completely unknown other world.

At that time, he knew nothing about anything.

After receiving instruction from Sister Mafuyu who came to his door, he mastered basic survival skills and stepped onto these streets that were completely unfamiliar to him in every sense of the word for the first time.

Having come from another world, he witnessed the civilization and prosperity of this world.

Then...

On his first walk on the street, he accidentally stumbled into a haunted spot and, unsurprisingly, encountered supernatural beings.

Its entire body emitted black mist, its face was ashen, and its tongue stretched all the way down to its neck...

A supernatural being known as the "Hanging Ghost".

However, it is different from the tension and fear that normal people should have in their instincts.

Faced with that horrifying sight, he actually felt a desire that existed as a basic life instinct, a desire called appetite...

desire.

From that moment on, he began to intersect with the supernatural world for the first time.

不 ...

Perhaps, he was in the deepest part of this world from the very beginning.

Facing the hanged ghost.

His fists could touch the other person, his eyes could see the other person, and his ears could hear the other person's voice.

Even the smell is so realistic.

The gap between the two sides is not as large as imagined.

If that's the case, then there's no reason why we can't win.

The conclusion holds true, and there is a possibility of victory.

He could already see the result of his victory in his eyes.

The fighting continued relentlessly. At that moment, all his reason was consumed by his appetite, and he punched the hanged ghost until he was completely wiped out from the world.

All that the hanged ghost left behind was a three-foot-long white silk ribbon, stained with blood and reeking of stench.

Then, driven by his appetite, he chewed the white silk in large bites.

It is not meat, nor is it anything that should exist in nature.

The white silk disappeared as soon as it entered his mouth; it was digested without any swallowing process.

After swallowing the entire white silk ribbon, he let out a satisfied burp.

Not long after, he was found lying motionless on a park bench, his hair disheveled, his clothes tattered and covered in dust and blood, by Kirisu Mafuyu, who then took him home.

From that day on, he changed his address for Kirisu Mafuyu from "Teacher" to "Mafuyu-nee".

Kirisu Mafuyu also tacitly accepted this name.

......

The hanged ghost, the rat, felt hungry every now and then for the past month.

Just as the human body needs to replenish energy when it is hungry, its soul also feels hungry.

It wasn't physical hunger, but more like an emptiness of the soul; some kind of "existence" that science couldn't observe whispered in his ear.

He needs to eat.

Just like three meals a day, he needs the "remnants" that fall from the source of the supernatural to fill his hunger.

A visitor from another world named Sakurai, whose body was resurrected after death, feeds on supernatural beings.

From that day on, he bid farewell to the normal world, a world without demons or monsters, a world with only gravity, inertia, and the scientific laws of physics and chemistry.

They arrived at a supernatural world filled with the bizarre and terrifying, strange and wonderful things that made ordinary people shudder, yet were also eager to go there.

Eito Sakurai, whose real name is unknown, is an ordinary high school student suffering from amnesia, who comes from another world.

Just like ordinary people need three meals a day to provide energy for their daily activities, whether they like it or not.

His very existence seems to be...

They are alien beings that feed on supernatural creatures.

"Freaks"—that's probably the most fitting adjective to describe his existence.

.....

.....

This world is always like this: while the vast majority of people are ordinary, there are a very few extraordinary individuals.

Such individuals are what are referred to as "geniuses".

So-called geniuses, the chosen ones of heaven.

An existence possessing talents that ordinary people cannot have.

For geniuses, photographic memory and exceptional logical thinking skills are simply things that are easy to achieve.

Such extraordinary geniuses do exist, capable of easily achieving what others cannot in a lifetime.
