Tokyo Paranormal, the beginning reminds me of the game plot

Taichi Yagami hasn't heard his mother's nagging for half a year and he misses her a little.

He smiled after hearing that: "The food in the school is delicious. As for friends, I have also met a few. If there is a chance, I will bring them to visit my home. As for my girlfriend... I am still young, and now I should focus on learning spiritual arts."

"Eh~~~~" Yagami Mikoto pouted, "But why did I hear that Onmyojis get married at a very young age?"

"???"

Seeing his son's puzzled expression, Yagami Touma, who was helping to carry the suitcase, couldn't help but explain: "After you went to school, government officials came to visit us and asked us to sign a confidentiality agreement. They also gave us a booklet about the modern history of Onmyoji."

"At the end of the booklet, there is a contact group for parents. Mikoto and I both joined it, and then we got to know some friends from, uh... the Psychic World, right? "

"That's right." Yagami Mikoto nodded, "Minako said that she met her husband in school, and then they chose to get married as soon as they graduated."

——Who is Minako?

Yagami Taichi was confused, but he didn't dwell on this issue.

He just continued to explain: "Mom, after all, I am an Onmyoji born in the present world. Compared with those families and mixed-blood Onmyoji, I am much inferior in innately. Not to mention the next two years, but at least in the first year, I must work harder to catch up with others."

Before he could finish his words, Yagami Mikoto curled her lips.

"And then, you became the head of the grade?"

"Uh..." Yagami Taichi was really shocked. How could there be all kinds of information in the parent communication group? "You know?"

"Ryuguya Nobuyuki said last night, oh, he is Minako's husband." Yagami Touma replied.

...Letter from Dragon Palace.

Taichi Yagami remained expressionless on the surface, but he had roughly guessed the identities of Ryuuguu Nobuyuki and Minako, or rather, the identities of Minako Ryuuguu.

Then he subconsciously asked, "Setsuna's parents?"

Yagami Mikoto's eyes lit up: "Oh my, you're calling me by my name, and you're still telling me that I'm not your girlfriend!"

Taichi Yagami sighed and decided to give up explaining, because in his mother's current state, she would not be able to listen to what he said specifically.

He immediately changed the subject and said, "I'm hungry, is there anything to eat?"

On Saturday, Yagami Taichi rarely chose to practice, but instead told his parents about his experiences this semester.

It wasn't until the next day that he resumed his study attitude as in school.

However, he did not choose the Soul Seal that he had cultivated to the mastery level, but took out the white paper and cinnabar that had been prepared long ago from the suitcase and began to improve the production of high-level talismans.

The school's summer vacation is from July 7th to September 20st.

Among them, because he got the tickets to the Four Sacred Mountains, Yagami Taiyi needs to be free for seven days from August 8nd to August 2th.

Theoretically, with the remaining thirty-six days, this skill can be cultivated to the maximum level.

In order to ensure that he achieved his goal, as early as when he was in school, Yagami Taiyi found a tutorial on how to draw the 'Nine-Character Amulet', which is the easiest to make among the high-level talismans, in the library on the fourth floor.

With his current skills in talisman making, he could compress the time of drawing the nine-character talisman into one and a half minutes.

And as the proficiency of the talisman itself increases, this speed can be further accelerated.

However, on the sixth day after returning home.

After waking up, while routinely using the Wild Soul Seal and the Lucky Soul Seal, a loud explosion suddenly came from Yagami Taichi's body.

The next second, his consciousness was pulled into a special space.

Inside the space, a gigantic monster with eight snake heads and eight tails was fighting with eight men and women.

Flame, frost, lightning, poisonous fog...

Filling the entire battlefield.

The moment he saw the monster, a name came to Taichi Yagami's mind.

——Yamata no Orochi!

And that being seemed to have noticed the presence of others. After using some ice-attributed spiritual technique to resist the attack of a young man, it glanced towards where Yagami Taichi was.

"Hiss——(Yagami, I'm going to kill you!)"

And then……

Taichi Yagami was pulled by some force and returned to the real world.

The system's prompt sounded in my ears at the right time:

[It is detected that the control of the Yaqi bloodline has reached 1%, which meets the minimum talent awakening conditions. 】

[Awakening talent... Awakening successful! 】

[You gain the talent 'Snake Language'. ]

[You obtain the talent 'lower-level half-demon'. ]

[Snake Language: You can understand the language of most pythons and snakes, and communicate with them normally. When the control of the Yaqi bloodline reaches 5%, the range of languages ​​you can understand increases.]

[Lower Half-Demon: You have initially mastered the power of the demon blood in your body, life*1.5, spirit*1.5, when the control of the Eight-Headed Bloodline reaches 5%, the Half-Demon status will be upgraded. ]

065 Shikigami Contract Ceremony

"!!!"

Taichi Yagami was shocked at first, and then he showed an excited expression.

He took a look at his character panel and found that there was an extra '*1.5' character after the life column and the spirit column.

Even the 'currently attainable spiritual power limit', an attribute that Yagami Taichi usually doesn't pay much attention to, has jumped directly from the original 1945 to 2917.5.

"If I let go, I might be able to raise my spiritual power level to level 11, or even level 10!"

That being said, Taichi Yagami couldn't really do that.

It would be fine if it was just for the purpose of cultivating the Demon Soul Seal, but when the changes in the spiritual vein attributes were completed, the spiritual power would naturally be improved.

But if possible, he still hopes to learn as many spiritual seals as possible when his spiritual power level is low.

"correct!"

Yagami Taiyi walked a few steps to the floor-to-ceiling window, leaned forward, and carefully observed the changes in himself from head to toe.

He had fought against Yamabuki Yukino, who had a very high concentration of demon blood, so he understood that as the Yamabuki bloodline in his body gradually awakened, he would inevitably develop some unusual characteristics related to snakes.

Fortunately, perhaps it was because the blood awakening degree had not yet reached the standard, or perhaps it was the suppression brought by the control over the blood.

Taichi Yagami checked several times, even taking off all his clothes, but still couldn't find any extra parts on his body.

A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Even if snake scales grew or the tongue was forked, Yagami Taichi had plenty of ways to hide it because he had read relevant books in advance.

But just like the ineffectiveness of the talisman that happened to Fubuki Yama during the competition at the end of this semester, those external objects can always be accidentally damaged.

"It seems that I need to learn the Shikigami Contract in advance. It would be best if I can contract a snake spirit before school starts."

Yagami Taichi muttered so.

In the first half of the semester, the course "History of Onmyoji" has been completed. Starting from the second half of the semester, this course will be replaced by "Shikigami Studies". At the same time, there will be another course called "Soul Armament" on Tuesday morning.

Taichi Yagami has already mastered the method of refining soul weapons, so it is impossible for him to go to the far end and make soul weapons that can only open Bankai.

As for the textbooks of "Shikigami", he had already memorized them after a semester of preparation.

The so-called Shikigami contract is, in essence, a kind of magic array ritual.

However, after dozens of generations of improvements in the psychic world, this ritual has now been reduced and simplified into a talisman.

To be precise, it is a set of spells.

If you want to make a contract with a foreign object such as a spirit or residual spirit, then you only need to use the advanced level of "Spirit Contract Talisman".

Lower-level monsters and evil spirits have the high-level 'Soul Contract Talisman'.

Further up there are the 'Soul-Bonding Talisman' corresponding to the secret arts, and the 'Spell-Bonding Talisman' corresponding to the high-level secret arts.

As for directly contracting a ghost or a big monster...

Not to mention whether there are Onmyoji who can beat them half to death. Even if they can do that, he or she, because of the characteristics of the Pure Stage, no longer needs the help of these beings.

After using up all the remaining times of the Wild Soul Seal and Lucky Soul Seal for the day, Ye Shen Taiyi took half an hour to increase his proficiency in the Soul Contract Talisman to 100%.

He had planned to ask his father to accompany him to the animal market to buy a pet snake and sign a contract with it before school started.

With the help of another method of nurturing one's own shikigami - spiritual vein nurturing, the snake spirit with which one has reached a contract is nurtured in a spiritual vein in the body. Through the contractual relationship between the two, some snake-like characteristics can be revealed on the surface of the body.

Then he concealed his gradually awakening Yaqi bloodline.

In Taichi Yagami's opinion, this method should be the safest and the least likely to be exposed.

but……

The following trip to the Four Sacred Mountains slightly disrupted his plans.

When you are immersed in cultivation, time always passes quickly.

In the blink of an eye, it was already the morning of August 8nd.

After breakfast, Taichi Yagami greeted his parents, then returned to his bedroom and took out the ticket given by Tsuchimikado Haruka.

Input enough spiritual power into the talisman, and then, a magic circle flashing with bright white light quietly emerged on the ground.

Ye Shen Taiyi understood that this was the gateway to the Four Sacred Mountains.

Carrying the suitcase, he walked in slowly.

As the light rose, the transmission began.

"…Finally…I arrived…"

There seemed to be an inexplicable presence whispering in my ears.

But Yagami Taiyi didn't hear it clearly.

He shook his head, and when he regained consciousness, he was already on a platform.

The large teleportation array on the ground was constantly flashing with light.

In just a few breaths, the number of people on the platform soared from the initial dozen to two hundred!

"Yakami?!"

Suddenly, a familiar female voice rang in my ear.

Taichi Yagami turned around when he heard that and found that the person calling him was the spiritual arts professor Inugami Sakura.

Not only that, not far behind the other party, he also saw the figures of several classmates who were born in the same family, including Ryuguu Setsuna, Tsuchimikado Sayuri, and Yamabuki Yukino.

Perhaps because Inugami Sakura's voice was a little loud, the girls also looked over.

Then, after discovering Taichi Yagami, they all showed surprised expressions.

Taichi Yagami walked forward and called out to the person honestly.

"Inugami-sensei."

"Yeah." Inujou Sakura suppressed the surprised expression on her face. She was not a person who liked to ask questions. Since Ye Shen appeared in the Four Sacred Mountains, it naturally meant that he had obtained a ticket to enter this place.

As for where the tickets came from and whether the means were legal, Inugami Sakura, who had worked for the school for several years, didn't care at all.

However, Sayuri Tsuchimikado, who was also walking here, seemed to have thought of something. She suddenly grabbed Taichi Yagami's arm, came closer, and asked quietly: "Did my aunt give you your ticket?"

Yagami Taichi did not deny: "This is my reward for becoming the chief."

This answer did not surprise Sayuri Tsuchimikado.

She knew her cousin's personality well. She was the type who wouldn't release the eagle until she saw the rabbit. Since she gave Yagami Taiyi a ticket to enter the Four Sacred Mountains, it naturally meant...

"Tsk—that woman!"

Sayuri Tsuchimikado curled her lips.

As the daughter of the current head of the family, Sayuri Tsuchimikado has little intention of following in her father's footsteps.

But as the saying goes, what I give you is yours, and what I don’t give you, you can’t take.

Naturally, Sayuri Tsuchimikado doesn't have much affection for this cousin who is eyeing the position of head of the family.
