I'm having fun in Tokyo

Chapter 84 You really are different

He pretended not to notice and turned his gaze away. He didn't show it outwardly, but his eyes kept staring at the shadows, and he communicated with Ryoko in his mind.

"Aunt Liangzi, there's something wrong with that shadow."

Ryoko didn't react at all, seemingly understanding what he wanted to do, and cooperated with him very well.

She still looked at him with that expectant expression.

"Yes, I know, Morikawa, you figured it out very quickly."

"You know about Aunt Ryoko?" Morikawa Yu frowned inwardly when she saw that Ryoko wasn't surprised at all.

But to conceal his true feelings, he outwardly maintained the appearance of deep thought and contemplation.

“I didn’t know at first, but I understood after coming here.” Ryoko continued to transmit her voice to him in her mind: “Do you still remember that red Hannya demon mask?”

"I purified some of its resentment and became familiar with its aura."

"That's right. I can sense that the masked monster with a similar aura is nearby, and it hasn't moved."

"Originally, after I found it, I was going to have my shikigami deal with it, but when I thought about you coming, I didn't make a move. I wanted to see if you could find it."

"I didn't expect you to give me such a surprise."

"So what do we do now?" Morikawa calmly adjusted his breathing, ready to act at any moment.

Liangzi, however, showed no change in expression, communicating telepathically.

"Don't worry, Morikawa, I can seal off the entire area at any time."

"I'm a little curious, how did you discover that there was something wrong with that shadow?"

Morikawa Yu relaxed a little.

Although he didn't like Ryoko's way of doing things, he was very confident in her unfathomable strength.

“Aunt Liangzi, my vision is different from that of ordinary people. Shadows are very faint in my eyes.” He said to himself. “That shadow is different from the other shadows in my eyes, so I am sure that it is a disguise.”

Hearing him say that, a hint of surprise finally appeared in Ryoko's eyes.

But what came to her mind first was what Feiyue had told her about him not long ago.

At the time, she asked Himeki why she liked Morikawa Yu, and Himeki said it was because he was special. He wasn't afraid when he saw Himeki's true form, but rather liked him very much.

She didn't believe it at the time, but now it seems that what Feiyue said was right.

Morikawa is indeed very different.

This made her curious, but also gave her a bit of a headache.

Feiyue called her today. Although she didn't say what she wanted to do, how could she not know what Feiyue was planning?

This is bad.

She originally intended to entrust Morikawa to the shrine priest of Fushimi Inari Taisha in Kyoto, so that the two could become partners and support each other.

In this way, when she abdicates and leaves this world, he will still have another powerful god standing behind him, giving him strong support.

Although Morikawa might resist, these things can be done slowly.

But Fei Yue's hasty action completely disrupted her plans.

To be fair, Hiigetsu is very strong and has a high status in the circle of great yokai, but that doesn't bring Morikawa much benefit.

I just hope that Morikawa can reject Hiizuki, so that there's still a chance to salvage the situation.

She was a little worried, but not too worried.

Although Hiizuki likes Morikawa, he may not necessarily reciprocate her feelings.

"Morikawa, did Hiizuki tell you something strange today?" she said to Morikawa Yu, this time not communicating in her mind, but saying it aloud.

Morikawa Yu was a little surprised and a little worried about the monkey mask hiding in the shadows, but she still nodded.

"Yes, Hizuki confessed to me."

"He confessed directly?" Liangzi frowned.

"Yes, and he said some very strange things."

Morikawa Yu gave a wry smile, thinking of the expectation in Hishizuki's eyes back then.

"To be honest, it's quite troubling, but I agreed to it."

"You agreed?" Ryoko's smile froze.

Did she force you?

"No." Morikawa Yu shook her head.

He wasn't lying about that; Fei Yue really didn't force him.

He was even certain that if he had rejected Feiyue back then, Feiyue would have left silently without causing him any embarrassment.

Ryoko's smile vanished.

She looked at Morikawa Yu as if she were seeing him for the first time, scrutinizing him with narrowed eyes.

"Morikawa, you agreed a little too hastily."

"Didn't I just tell you a couple of days ago that I wanted to introduce you to Mitsuko, the shrine maiden of Fushimi Inari Shrine? If you like the original form of Hitsuki, I can assure you that Mitsuko's original form was even more beautiful than Hitsuki."

"If you like..."

“No need to trouble yourself, Aunt Ryoko.” Morikawa Yu interrupted her, shaking her head.

Was it hasty?

Indeed, it was somewhat hasty.

After all, he didn't know much about Fei Yue. He had only spoken to her a few times, and they had only had one-on-one conversations once or twice.

But so what?

Feelings can be cultivated slowly. He didn't think Feiyue was unworthy of him, nor did he find her annoying. Feiyue also liked him.

Since you both love each other, why not become a couple and give each other a chance?

He understood Ryoko's thoughts. The Inari Shrine she kept mentioning was probably the one she had chosen for herself, the one she could entrust her life to and who would satisfy her.

However, he didn't like Ryoko's approach.

Understanding is one thing, accepting is another.

We're all adults; he wants to make his own choices.

“Aunt Liangzi, I have already agreed to marry Feiyue, and I plan to register our marriage as soon as I get home.”

"Although I may be a bit unreliable at times, I will take full responsibility for what I have promised to do."

"As her husband, I will not do anything to hurt her."

"I see." Ryoko's eyes showed a hint of regret, but also admiration.

"Although I don't know if you will change your mind in the future, judging from the current situation, Feiyue did not make the wrong choice, and I, as her old friend, am very happy for her."

She stopped looking at Morikawa Yu and instead focused her gaze on the shadows deep in the alley, her face expressionless.

Golden rays of light emerged from the sky, the walls, and the ground, converging into chains that twisted and twisted towards the shadows.

From the shadows, a ghostly figure wearing a monkey mask and emanating black energy stood up.

Although its face was ferocious, its body was covered in blood, and some bits of flesh and entrails were still hanging from its mouth, it was clearly a monster that had just slaughtered humans.

But when it looked at Ryoko, its eyes were filled with fear, as if the other was the real, terrifying demon.

Morikawa Yu frowned.

It's quite unusual that Ryoko is actually planning to do it herself.

Even so, we can't let her actually make a move, otherwise I won't get any experience points.

"Aunt Liangzi, please give it to me." He smiled at Liangzi.

"I need to get familiar with these things in the future, won't I?"

"Just leave it to me."

Liangzi glanced at him but didn't say anything.

Morikawa Yu's heart clenched slightly, but she felt no fear.

He wasn't going to let the ape-faced demon go; he was just prepared to do it himself, and he had a clear conscience.

Finally, after looking at him for a while, Liangzi put down her hand and nodded.

The golden chains surrounding the ape-faced demon ceased their blockade and remained suspended in mid-air.

Morikawa Yu turned his back to face it directly, reached into his chest lining, took out Tsurumaru Kuninaga, and instantly drew his sword.

Chapter 85 You are all my wings

The ape-faced demon tensed up, leaning slightly forward.

It looked fearfully at Ryoko behind Morikawa Yu, and at the same time let out a low growl at Morikawa Yu.

Morikawa Yu shook her head slightly, giving it a bad review for its bullying and cowardly behavior.

He stepped forward and slashed, instantly arriving in front of the ape-faced demon, slashing down with his blade, aiming straight for its neck.

The ape-faced demon, however, fell to the ground, rolled over, and attacked Morikawa Yu's feet, extending its sharp claws.

Morikawa Yu's expression turned cold. He stomped down, crushing its chest beneath his foot.

What the hell?

This isn't how you send someone to their death, is it?

He flipped the Tsurumaru in his hand, pointing it vertically downwards, and plunged it directly into the head of the monkey-faced demon. He twisted it once, watching its body tremble and become unresponsive, gradually turning illusory and beginning to dissipate.

That's it?

Morikawa Yu was a little disappointed.

He thought this time it would be an enemy like Akabane again, but he didn't expect it to be so weak.

This made him feel like it was meaningless.

Sheathing his sword, Morikawa Yu walked towards the alley entrance.

He walked halfway there when he suddenly felt something was wrong.

What about experience? How can you say you have no experience?

His expression changed, and he turned around to look, only to find that the ape-faced demon's body was gradually becoming solidified, lying on the ground, rushing towards the alley wall at an eerie speed, and running across the wall.

He gritted his teeth, instantly feeling a surge of anger at being fooled.

This little thing is quite clever, and its abilities are so strange. It turns out it was just pretending to be dead, waiting for me to lower my guard before escaping.

He is completely different from the Red Prajna who only knows how to fight head-on.

However, no matter how clever I am, how could I possibly let you escape?

He took another step, drew his sword, and charged forward.

Although the ape-faced demon was incredibly fast, trying to escape from him when he used the Wind-Controlling Sword Technique was a pipe dream.

He lowered his body, took a step forward, each step covering more than ten meters, and in a few steps he came to the back of the ape-faced demon and slashed down with his sword.

—Steel-Cutting Flash!

The ape-faced demon seemed to sense the wind behind it and jumped to the side, but its arm was still severed.

Morikawa Yu took another step, attacking from behind and to the side of the monkey-faced demon, and slashed down with his sword.

The ape-faced demon then fell down again, rolled over, but this time it didn't roll towards him, but retreated.

It seemed to know it couldn't fool anyone anymore, so it slammed its hands on the ground, roared madly, and was filled with impotent rage.

Without any hesitation, Morikawa Yu stepped forward, and Tsurumaru thrust into the monkey-faced demon's chest, lifting it up and pinning it to the wall.

The narrow alley provided him with a suitable terrain, making it easier for him to get started.
