Shota is surrounded by monsters!

Yura Hanakain thought Shota was an ordinary person, so when she saw him rushing towards the monster, she quickly tried to stop him.

"Hahahaha... Humans keep rushing up, is this the newly reborn Kyoto?"

"Eat them! Eat them!"

"what……"

Shota's eyes began to glow red. He leaped high from the ground, looked at the two monsters rushing towards him, and opened his arms...

"boom--"

With one hand in each hand, Shota smashed the heads of the two monsters directly into the rubble, while the two girls they had been holding were sent flying uncontrollably. The Yuki-onna and the Onmyoji quickly caught them, one in each hand.

"Tch... So your strength has really regressed a lot?"

Shota had originally planned to kill them with one blow, but the two low-level monsters actually survived his attack...

Well, there's no need for that.

"Bam—"

Raise your hands off your head, clench your fists, and then slam them down hard!

"This……"

The Onmyoji girl was at a loss for words upon witnessing this brutal act.

"Afraid now, huh? This is a high-ranking officer of our Nura Clan."

The Snow Woman didn't seem to have much resistance to this; instead, she seized the opportunity to strike at the Onmyoji girl.

"belch--"

The eating process was so bizarre that they selectively ignored it. Shota clasped his hands together and said, "Thank you for the hospitality."

"Wow, Yura! You've come at the perfect time. We were just about to come and bother you at your house."

Two more boys ran out of the door...

Most of the members of the Kiyoshi Detective Club, to which Rikuo belongs, have arrived...

"So, young man... why did we come to the main residence of an Onmyoji?"

The Snake Princess trembled slightly, feeling extremely uncomfortable with the surrounding smell.

"Hmm...why?"

In the living room, Shota sat cross-legged. At that moment, the Onmyoji girl was next door, taking care of something with her classmate.

"Oh right! We're at the main base of the Onmyoji now."

Qingtianfang seemed to have just remembered this question and asked very seriously, "What should we do? Should we go all out? Taotie-san?"

The Snow Woman was among the group next door, but for some reason, Aotabo still followed Shota into this room.

"Hmm...why?"

Shota kept repeating that sentence.

"Ugh……"

"Ah, I remember why."

Shota suddenly realized something and said, "I've come to find a shrine maiden who can heal my physical condition!"

"...The focus is on the shrine maiden, right, young man?"

Snake Princess silently muttered a complaint.

"Of course! Are we going to ask the old man to solve this problem?"

Shota naturally retorted, but Aotabo chimed in from the side, "Taotie-san, you're going to be disappointed. I heard that the strongest Onmyoji in the Kakaiin Temple have already sacrificed themselves at the last seal."

"what?"

"Then……"

Aotabo, who had been eavesdropping on the conversation next door while leaning against the wall, said, "The strongest woman should be that Hanakain Yura."

"Um……"

Shota stroked his chin and said, "If I ask about that kind of thing, will Rikuo kill me?"

"possible."

Aotabo nodded, then his expression changed, and he said, "There's bad news... The yokai from Kyoto will be attacking Sokoji Temple tonight... and the onmyoji here have given up hope and are preparing to make their final sacrifice."

"Ah, is a monster coming? That's great..."

Snake Princess breathed a sigh of relief, while Shota reached out and tapped her on the head, saying, "This is not good at all. The yokai in Kyoto are very scary. It will be troublesome if they take over this place."

"But...didn't you decide to get away with things here?"

Snake Princess, recalling her previous conversation with Oshino Meme, asked a question with some confusion.

"Even though that's what I say, I'll still help if I can."

Shota pointed to the food at the Kakaiin family's house and said, "After all, the food is pretty good."

"..."

"Of course, all of this is on the premise that I am not in any life-threatening danger."

Shota sighed and said, "Letting yokai shoulder the responsibility of saving the world... I'm not Rikuo."

For some reason, the three monsters fell silent at the same time.

"I'm going out for a walk."

Shota stood up, pushed open the door, and said, "I'll be back in a bit."

"Hey, Taotie-san, this is..."

Having completely concealed his aura, Shota was no different from an ordinary human. As he walked through the main residence of the Kakaiin family, he noticed that the Onmyoji here all had a deathly aura on their faces. Some were packing their things to escape, while others were organizing their talismans in preparation for a final, desperate battle.

It feels... so sad. What's with this sudden feeling of humanity's last hope?

"Ok?"

Shota, who was acting suspiciously, suddenly peeked through the crack in the door and saw a female Onmyoji (yin-yang master)...

Her shoulder-length black hair cascaded over her white Onmyoji robes, the loose garments unable to conceal her stunning figure. She was facing away from the door, seemingly tidying up something.

At least the back view is enough to make one want to commit a crime; hopefully the front view won't be too disappointing.

I've made up my mind, I'll ask this Onmyoji for advice.

"Um, Onmyoji lady, I have a question I'd like to ask..."

It seemed that Shota's attempt to strike up a conversation had caught the other person's attention, as they slowly turned around...

"..."

Shota took a step back in fear.

It's not that the person on the other side is unacceptable; on the contrary, she should be a very beautiful person.

However, Shota knew this person.

To be precise, we are quite familiar with each other.

"Taka...Saka-kun?"

The beautiful female Onmyoji tilted her head, seemingly puzzled, and asked, "Why are you here?"

"Fight, fight, fight, Senjougahara SAM... San?!"

Shota crossed his arms in disbelief and said, "Why are you here! And when did your hair turn black?!"

Chapter 137. Those Who Cultivate Their Own Misdeeds Will Not Live Without Them.

"hair?"

Senjougahara Hitagi ran her hand through her hair and asked calmly, "How's the new look?"

It has to be said that Hitagi Senjougahara's hairstyle was completely different from usual. Instead of being tied in a ponytail, her hair, after being dyed black, was slightly trimmed into a layered style. For a moment, even Shota didn't recognize her when he saw her from behind...

"How is it..."

Being stared at directly by Senjougahara, Shota blushed for some reason and stammered, "Very...very...good."

"That's good."

Senjougahara smiled, then turned back to pack her things, casually asking Shota, "Kousaka-kun, what are you doing here?"

Why did Senjougahara's aura change from a queen to an older sister type today?

Shota felt something was off about Senjougahara, but upon hearing the question, he said, "An Onmyoji invited me here. Wait a minute, what are you doing here? Although I knew you came to Kyoto..."

"Cultivation".

Senjougahara stated bluntly, "I'm here to study Onmyojutsu."

"Ah, is that so?" Shota thought for a moment, then advised, "If it's not a big deal, you should leave Kyoto. Things have been unsettling here lately."

"Ok, I know."

Senjougahara seemed to have already packed her things, and said, "I'm preparing to leave Kyoto now."

"Phew...that's good. I thought you were going to have a final showdown at Sokoku-ji Temple when I saw you packing your stationery." Shota breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I'll see you off out of Kyoto later. There are a lot of monsters on the road. It's a bit dangerous for you to be alone."

"And what about Kousaka-kun? Although your family called me and mentioned that you might be in Kyoto, what brings you here?"

Senjougahara looked at Shota with some confusion and pressed him for an answer.

"Ah, this, um... it's nothing, it's nothing."

Shota gave a somewhat nervous and perfunctory reply.

“Alright.” Senjougahara changed the subject, saying, “So what about the question you said you had to ask me?”

"Ah, this, um... it's nothing, it's nothing."

Shota nervously gave another perfunctory reply.

"Ok?"

Senjougahara's expression changed slightly, as if she sensed Shota's guilty conscience. She walked up to Shota and looked at him with sharp eyes.
