So she took a few steps forward, and the weaker evil spirits all retreated.
'It really works! I got the real deal!'
At this moment, Yotsuya Miko was a little excited. If the prayer beads were effective, would she no longer be afraid of evil spirits?
However, before she had taken more than a few steps, she saw a tall, yellow-coated evil spirit standing in the middle of the alley, seemingly unresponsive to her prayer beads.
She raised her hand and brought the rosary beads close to the other person...
The evil spirit remained motionless, suddenly muttering, "It's so itchy~"
An inexplicable power emanated from the evil spirit.
"Snapped!"
The rosary bracelet on Yotsuya Miko's hand exploded, scattering the beads all over the ground.
She stared blankly at her wrist. That's it?
The results were pretty good just now, so what's going on now?
Hearing the noise, Yurikawa Hana turned around and looked at Yotsuya Miko: "Miko, what's wrong?"
Yotsuya Miko responded stiffly, "N-nothing, I just accidentally broke my rosary bracelet."
"Yotsuya-kun, and Yurikawa-kun."
Suddenly, shouts came from behind.
Yotsuya Miko turned around and saw three people standing at the entrance of the alley, one of whom was an acquaintance, Dongfang Chen.
"Dongfang Jun?"
"Hey, Dongfang-kun? What are you doing here?"
Yurikawa also saw him and waved happily at him.
Yotsuya Miko pulled Yurikawa towards Dongfang Chen. With him by their side, he could definitely protect them, right?
"I just happened to be passing by. What are you doing here?" Dongfang Chen asked, looking at the two beautiful young women.
"Hehe, of course we're going to buy some delicious desserts!" Yurikawa said happily.
Miko Yotsuya: "I just came out to accompany her shopping and bought some things on the way..."
Dongfang Chen: "I see. I think I just saw Yotsuya drop something on the ground?"
"Yes, that's a prayer bead bracelet I just bought, but I accidentally broke it..."
She glanced back, but her pupils contracted. The evil spirit in the yellow coat had silently appeared behind her without her noticing!
Yotsuya Miko was completely stunned, her heart leaping into her throat, countless question marks flashing through her mind.
'Why? Why did this guy follow us? But, with Dongfang Jun here, we don't need to be afraid of it, right?'
Dongfang Chen naturally saw this evil spirit as well, but only glanced at it indifferently; it was much stronger than an ordinary evil spirit.
"Girls, you shouldn't run into these dark alleys unless it's really dangerous."
It was mainly meant for Yotsuya Miko.
"Huh? Is there any danger here? Don't scare me!"
Baihechuan Hua looked back at the alley with some nervousness. She had walked through it before and it didn't seem dangerous.
"Not at the moment." Dongfang Chen smiled.
What danger could he possibly be in here?
"Ugh, Dongfang-kun, don't scare people like that!" Baihechuanhua said, displeased.
Yotsuya Miko looked at the two people behind Dongfang Chen and asked, "Speaking of which, are this older sister and this little boy Dongfang-kun's family?"
"Love is the master's disciple!"
Chuhe Ai stepped forward and grabbed Dongfang Chen's hand, her eyes warily fixed on the two women.
Yotsuya Miko's lips twitched. What was going on with being inexplicably targeted by a little girl?
Chapter 37: Master and Mother are both Dalabuji! (Seeking flowers and ratings)
"This girl is named Hinatsuru Ai. She is my newly accepted disciple and is learning shogi from me. This is Ai's mother, Lady Hinatsuru."
Dongfang Chen patted the little crane Ai's head and introduced her.
"Hello, we are Dongfang Jun's friends."
"I am Yotsuya Miko."
"I am Baihe Chuanhua."
Yotsuya Miko and Yurikawa Hana greeted each other.
"Hello." Hinatsuru Akina nodded expressionlessly.
"I see. So Dongfang-kun can play shogi? My father likes to play shogi, and it looks really difficult."
"I can't believe it!" said Yurikawa Hana in surprise.
"Well, I guess I have some ability!" he said modestly.
Yotsuya Miko suggested, "Should we...should we leave here first?"
There's a huge evil spirit standing behind me, it feels really bad!
Yurikawa: "Yeah, yeah, we were originally going to a dessert shop to buy a new flavor of dessert. Dongfang-kun, do you want to come with us?"
When it comes to delicious food, Baihe Chuanhua's eyes light up.
Yotsuya Miko gave him a pleading look: "Higashi-kun..."
More than desserts, evil spirits are following her around!
Hinatsuru Akina stepped forward and said, "Let's go too, and buy some snacks for Ai to take back."
Hinatsuru Ai looked at her mother, puzzled: "Mom?"
With a formidable enemy at hand, how could you collude with them instead of helping your daughter?
Hinatsuru Akina patted her little head without explaining anything.
Because she had noticed the unusual changes in Yotsuya Miko's expression and movements, and she also saw a cloud of black mist following behind Yotsuya Miko...
Hinatsuru Akina guessed that this girl was probably able to see evil spirits, just like her.
Having almost been killed by an evil spirit last night, she knew how terrifying it was.
“Let’s go together then!” Dongfang Chen nodded.
If we go with them, we should be able to find that shaman who sells prayer beads later.
He wasn't interested in the prayer beads themselves, but rather in the effects of the bracelets she made.
If he can learn it, he might be able to generate a skill.
If we upgrade his skill level two more times, he should be able to create some powerful exorcism items.
Then we'll assign one to each of his close friends. That should protect them from evil spirits, or at least keep ordinary evil spirits away from them.
"Yurikawa-kun, please lead the way!"
The evil spirit behind Yotsuya Miko is still somewhat useful for now, so we need to let it follow us. Therefore, we'll let it live a little longer.
The group of five went to the dessert shop that Yurikawa had mentioned, and the dessert she described was indeed daifuku pouch...
Although it had a new flavor, its shape, resembling a buttock, still left Dongfang Chen speechless.
The mother and daughter, Hinatsuru, were also attracted by the novel design. Hinatsuru Akina ate one and felt it was pretty good: "I'll take a look at it when I get back. It could be a good specialty snack."
Being a businesswoman herself, she discovered a business opportunity.
After buying the desserts, Yotsuya Miko wanted to buy two more rosary bracelets.
Although the first two strings were broken, they still had a good effect at first, at least they could repel those weak evil spirits, right?
Before long, after making some inquiries, the group arrived at the entrance of a shop with a bizarre and eerie decor.
The sign above the shop reads things like fortune telling, exorcism, and a deity godmother.
At that moment, a thin, elderly woman wearing a purple hooded robe was squatting behind the counter, busy with something, and didn't notice the group of people.
Yotsuya Miko: "Excuse me, may I bother you?"
The old lady looked up at the group upon hearing the voice, then stood up with some difficulty: "Alala, is there anything you guests need?"
Yotsuya Miko asked, "Excuse me, do you have any very powerful prayer beads?"
Yurikawa Hana added, "It's the kind that won't break easily!"
The old lady saw that it was just two young girls asking, and thought that they probably didn't have much money, so she could just give them any ordinary money.
"Of course, please wait a moment."
She responded with a word and then went to find the goods on the shelf behind her.
Beside her, Hinatsuru Akina whispered in Dongfang Chen's ear, "Are the prayer beads really useful?"
Dongfang Chen responded, "It does work, but it's generally only effective against weak beings. It definitely wouldn't work against something like last night."
