Tokyo: I am the Lord of All Demons!

As they drew closer, Shimizu Suzune realized that there were not just a few ghosts, but hundreds, each corresponding to a victim who had mistakenly entered Kisaragi Station.

Shimizu Suzune looked back and found that the crowd chasing her had also changed from "zombies" into ghosts, including the few muscular men who had been knocked down, who had only become stronger wisps of ghosts.

The case is solved! This is their true nature. There are no living people in this station at all. Everyone who saw them was just imagining things!

"No! There are just too many of them, I feel like I'm no match for them! What should I do?" Even at this point, Shimizu Suzune didn't forget to play the victim in front of the camera, hoping to get the comments section active.

However, to her surprise, the barrage of comments did not become more active; instead, it decreased significantly, with only a small number of questioning comments remaining. All the previous comments expressing "fear" had miraculously disappeared.

[Just arrived, is this a scene from a horror movie shoot?]

[Wow, big production! They hired so many extras just to make a horror movie.]

These ghosts look fake; they're probably wearing prop costumes.

[The streamer's performance was also fake; you can see she just burst out laughing, completely failing to convey the scary atmosphere.]

[Hey, the streamer was really putting in a lot of effort! Director, give the streamer a bonus!]

Thankfully, Shimizu Suzune is currently busy escaping and doesn't have time to check the comments, otherwise she might have been furious.

Also located in Kisaragi Station, but unaffected by Kisaragi Station, the mastermind behind it all, Araki Makoto, was in Shimizu Suzune's ghost-hunting livestream room, watching her livestream, enjoying the scrolling comments, and feeling happy about the ever-increasing "fear".

[Fear +2]

[Fear +2]

【…】

For some unknown reason, during tonight's ghost-hunting livestream, many viewers were hit with two units of Fear, causing them to foam at the mouth and lose consciousness. This is why the number of comments suddenly decreased.

[Current - Fear: 85700]

Nearly 100,000 more fears will soon appear, but Makoto Araki cannot explain in detail where these fears come from, because Kisaragi Station, Shimizu Suzune's live broadcast room, and the Slit-Mouthed Woman are all exerting their power at almost the same time, frightening the world!

With the added appeal of Shimizu Suzune's ghost-hunting livestream, the number of viewers continues to soar! It looks like it might surpass 100,000 tonight!

So, it's time to reward Shimizu Suzune with a treasure, and this time it'll be a more expensive one.

Open the item shop.

Open the "evil-repelling ritual implement".

Traditional Japanese religious implements such as shimenawa (sacred rope), dolls, shoma-dō (demon-slaying arrows), and shoma-kō (demon-slaying bow) are displayed one by one before Makoto Araki.

Makoto Araki flipped through several pages and found that the most expensive items were actually just "Demon-Slaying Arrow and Demon-Slaying Bow," and this pair required 20000 units of Fear.

Is it expensive?

That's quite expensive.

If this had happened before, Makoto Araki would have been somewhat reluctant to give it to Suzune Shimizu.

Cough cough, to be honest, I'm reluctant to let her go now. Even if she were Makoto Araki's first divine messenger, she wouldn't have received this kind of treatment.

Before Makoto Araki becomes a god, everything else must make way for his path to godhood!

Just a messenger of God!

It's not like it can't be replaced.

There is no second way to become a god!

So, Makoto Araki continued flipping through the pages, intending to find something priced at around ten thousand to see if there were any good items to send to the divine messenger.

Believe it or not, it actually was found!

[Yama Blade]

[Description: The sword used by Yama, the ruler of Hell; the Yama sword's power is to sever all things, including cutting through space and dimensions; possessing this sword makes all demons and monsters tremble.]

[Note: When the Yamato is activated and [Dimensional Slash] is unleashed, the user's height will decrease by a certain amount; otherwise, bleeding will be the punishment.]

【Price - 10000】

Chapter 58 Bullet Screen Exorcism

Yamato, exchange!

[Consumption - Fear: 10000]

[Current - Fear: 75700]

With a blinding flash, the Yamato was in hand. It was a katana with a gilded hilt and a blade and scabbard made of black gold.

Araki Makoto caught the katana with one hand and weighed it in his hand. He didn't know much about katanas, but judging from its weight alone, he knew that the sword could hold a considerable amount of demonic power.

Can it sever everything?

It is indeed a fine knife.

This sword is so powerful that even Makoto Araki is somewhat reluctant to let Suzune Shimizu use it.

...Just kidding.

However, this knife will cause the user to lose a certain amount of height or bleed, which is like a curse from a demon. Makoto Araki would never use such a terrifying tool; not a single centimeter of his height is superfluous!

Not a single second of his life was wasted! It was all meant to become a god!

Araki Makoto pulled his gaze back to Kisaragi Station. He stood on the platform, watching the ghosts play a real-life version of "cat and mouse" with Shimizu Suzune.

He looked at the knife in his hand again, then threw it into the tracks and turned to leave.

And it was at this moment!

The blades in the track are glowing!

At this moment, Shimizu Suzune had already escaped to the seaside, holding a lone gold foil gohei (a type of halberd), preparing to defend herself by the water.

This idea came from a viewer, because there were very few comments, and you could see a few suggestions in the comments with just a glance.

Just as Shimizu Suzune was about to check what other clever ideas the comments had, a sudden inspiration struck her. She noticed a flashing light on the train tracks!

coming.

What could it be this time? Excited, Shimizu Suzune ignored the ghosts surrounding her and rushed straight to the station.

Unfortunately, the ghosts were too stubborn. Like weeds, they could not be burned out by wildfire and would grow back with the spring breeze. Even if they were knocked down, they would float up again after a while.

Shimizu Suzune brandished her gohei (a type of ceremonial hat), struggling to knock down the ghost blocking her way. At this point, she was very close to the subway tracks.

When she arrived at the platform and approached the subway tracks, she noticed something: the ghosts in the station dared not come near her. The light from the knife on the tracks was so dazzling that it made them afraid.

That's more like it.

Shimizu Suzune works so hard on her live streams and ghost hunting because she's looking for this kind of magical artifact!

Ignoring whether a train would come, Shimizu Suzune jumped off the tracks and reached out to pull out the Enma sword stuck in the tracks.

However, it cannot be pulled out.

Furthermore, Shimizu Suzune also discovered that next to the Yamato sword was the corpse of what appeared to be an old man, which had been severely deformed by the impact of the subway train.

She should have looked away. When she glanced at the old man's corpse, the only remaining leg suddenly twitched, and then the body crawled on the tracks, giving the impression that it could stand up at any moment.

Left with no other choice, Shimizu Suzune had to temporarily abandon drawing her sword and instead use the gold foil gohei to finish off Old Deng, knocking him to the ground.

It can't be knocked over in one go.

Then let's fight twice!

And so, after knocking down Old Deng, Shimizu Rinne turned to look at Enma's sword again, wondering how she could draw it.

Just then, the sound of a subway train approaching came from the direction of the tracks at the tunnel entrance. It was expected to arrive within a minute and then smash Shimizu Suzune, who had no time to escape, into the air.

"Family members, how can I pull out this black knife? I've tried with all my might but I can't!" In desperation, Shimizu Suzune could only turn to the all-knowing comments for help.

The comments section responded quickly, with one comment, "Use gold foil to unseal it," being adopted by Shimizu Suzune.

She tried striking the Enma sword with the gold foil coin, then tucked the coin under her arm and pulled it out again, and sure enough, it came out easily.

"Family, I did it!" Shimizu Suzune had a gold foil coin tucked under her arm, a selfie stick in her right hand, and the Enma sword held high in her left, proudly admiring the "black flash" emitted by the sword.

But her joy was short-lived, as the subway train pulled into the station and was about to collide with her, just fifty meters away.

Fifty meters, in just a second or two!

Shimizu Suzune suddenly turned around, gripped the Enma sword in one hand, and slashed at the subway train that was crashing into her. With just one slash, she cut the subway train in two!

No, it's not that the subway train was cut in half, but that the entire space where the subway train was located was cut in half!

This resulted in the subway train rushing past on either side of Shimizu Suzune before stopping on the platform, sandwiching her between them.

However, none of this mattered. Shimizu Suzune brandished the Enma sword, clearing a path for herself once again, and walked out of the platform.

Dimensional Slash, it truly lives up to its name!

After Shimizu Suzune exited the station, the ghosts that had been surrounding her did not dare to approach, but instead made way for her to get closer to the vehicle.

The power of the Yamato is too strong!

And so, Shimizu Suzune returned to the car with the gold foil gohei and the Enma sword, and quickly started the car.

Even so, the ghosts surrounding the vehicle remained persistent, keeping a certain distance and watching the vehicle menacingly from about ten meters away.

As Shimizu Suzune started the car, for every meter her sports car moved forward, the ghosts retreated one meter. Finally, Shimizu Suzune drove her Porsche 911 away from the scene at Kisaragi Station without any pressure.

Currently, Makoto Araki is still at Kisaragi Station, witnessing the entire process of Suzune Shimizu drawing her sword and driving away from the scene, and also witnessing the power of the "Enma Sword".

If a mere talisman costing 10,000 units of "fear" can possess such immense power, it's unimaginable how invincible a Ksitigarbha statue, which requires 500,000 units of "fear" to exchange for, truly is.

Speaking of which, it's about time to exchange for the second Jizo statue. Let's open the item shop!

[Current - Fear: 75800]

Just now, Wei's profit increased by 100, so without further ado, I bought it.
