In this anime crossover, who stole my module?

"Perhaps... it would be better if Ying Xizi and I avoided each other for a while?"

"..."

"What kind of nonsense are you two thinking about all the time?"

"In your eyes, am I the kind of pervert who only thinks with his lower body?"

"Eh?"

"Is not it?"

Geng Xizi was taken aback by his words and subconsciously asked a question in return, her slender eyes filled with an air of self-righteousness.

"..."

This left Natsume Ryo speechless. His eyes twitched, and he flicked each of the two almost identical smooth foreheads with a light touch.

"Ugh..." x2

Geng Xizi and Ying Xizi simultaneously let out a soft, aggrieved moan, covering their foreheads.

"Stop thinking nonsense."

"Although this guy's image... well, it fits my particular XP."

"But... we'll definitely need to use other methods to get her to talk."

"Other...methods?"

Upon hearing this, Geng Xizi and Ying Xizi exchanged glances, their curiosity growing even stronger.

Natsume Ryo stopped explaining and his thoughts shifted slightly.

Pop! Pop!

Two soft sounds.

Hellrock and flint.

—This item, originally from the game Minecraft, appeared in Natsume Ryo's hands.

"What's this?"

Looking at the two strangely shaped objects in Natsume Ryo's hands, both Geng Yuko and Ying Yuko were puzzled.

"..."

Natsume Ryo still did not offer an explanation.

Instead, they demonstrate it through concrete actions.

He casually tossed the Hell Rock onto the empty ground next to Jorogumo's enormous spider abdomen.

Then he clapped his hands and turned his gaze back to Jorogumo, who had already vaguely sensed that something was wrong.

Reopen your inventory.

This time.

What they took out was a bottle of seemingly ordinary cooking oil.

"..."

"You, you...you monster! What are you trying to do?!"

At this moment, Jorogumo seemed to vaguely sense that Natsume Ryo's intentions were not right, and a look of unease appeared on her face.

however.

Natsume Ryo ignored her.

Instead.

Snap!

After unscrewing the bottle cap.

Natsume Ryo evenly applied the clear cooking oil to the abdomen of the giant spider Jorogumo, which was covered with a hard shell.

"What?"

"Of course... it's roasted spider!"

After saying that, Natsume Ryo took the flint and steel.

With a flick of a finger.

Click!

A crisp sound.

The flint and steel gently collided with the hellrock, scattering sparks.

next second!

call--!

A cluster of flames instantly blazed up beneath the giant spider's abdomen.

Zila——!

A pungent smell of burning protein instantly filled the air!

Zila——!

A sound of grease being roasted rang out.

A burnt smell, like the shells being scorched, instantly filled the air.

“Ahhhhhh——!!!”

"It's hot! It's so hot! It's so hot!"

"My butt! My butt is going to be roasted!"

The Jorogumo let out a scream that was more piercing than ever before.

His face was completely contorted with extreme pain, and his body twisted and struggled wildly.

result.

Natsume Ryo firmly controlled Jorogumo's body, even occasionally turning her over.

Ensure even cooking.

"Don't rush, this is just the beginning."

"Once it's grilled until crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, sprinkle it with cumin and chili powder, and it will taste even better."

"devil!"

"You utter devil!"

Hearing Natsume Ryo's words, which sounded like the whispers of a demon, Jorogumo completely broke down, wailing hoarsely.

Geng Xizi and Ying Xizi, who were standing to the side, finally understood what Natsume Ryo meant by the special method.

It's like being roasted over a fire!

but.

Think about it carefully.

This monster that kidnaps children is definitely not a good thing.

Especially now.

Geng Xizi and Ying Xizi had their attention diverted by another guy who was completely unable to extricate himself.

"Hahahaha!"

"Burn it!"

"It's burning well, meow!"

"Burn this stinky spider cat!"

Watching the cat demon gloating and cheering from the sidelines.

Geng Xizi and Ying Xizi were speechless for a moment.

……

"Stop! Stop! I'll talk! I'll tell you everything!"

"Please! Stop it!"

In the end, Jorogumo's originally firm will was completely broken, and she let out a heart-wrenching cry for mercy.

"Oh? You're ready to talk so soon?"

Natsume Ryo raised an eyebrow, and with a flick of his wrist, the flames clinging to the spider's abdomen instantly went out.

At this moment, the giant spider's abdomen of the Jorogumo was charred black.

"..."

"Tell me, what is Nurarihyon's plan?"

Natsume Ryo looked at Jorogumo, who was convulsing from the excruciating pain and unable to speak properly, and asked in a calm tone.

"It's...it's the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons..."

Jorogumo answered weakly, her obsidian eyes filled with an overwhelming fear, no longer daring to conceal anything.

"Master Nurarihyon..."

"He wanted to take advantage of the weakened power of the White-faced, Golden-haired Nine-Tailed Fox Lord, join forces with the Great Tengu, and in one fell swoop...unify the entire Japanese demon world."

"To recreate... to recreate the magnificent scene of a hundred demons parading at night a thousand years ago..."

"And those human children we kidnapped... adults... sacrifices the adults used for their rituals..."

"ceremony?"

"Yes, it is……"

"I...I don't know the specifics either. All I know is that the ritual...is crucial to Lord Nurarihyon's plan..."

Jorogumo answered weakly, and wisps of smoke still rose from the charred carapace on the giant spider's abdomen.

"very good."

After listening, Natsume Ryo nodded slightly, seemingly satisfied with the result.

At least, they figured out the initial motives of the Nurarihyon and the purpose of those children.

As for what the ritual is, it's probably not a good thing.

However, these can be investigated further later.

For now, the usefulness of this Jorogumo has come to an end.

Thinking of this, Natsume Ryo stood up, looked at the Jorogumo who had completely lost the will to resist, thought for a moment, and finally decided not to kill her directly.

After all, leaving one alive might be useful in other ways later.

"However, before that, we obviously can't let our guard down against this guy."

Natsume Ryo thought to himself.

then.

With a slight thought, he intended to restore the cage wall made of obsidian to its original state.

—The Jorogumo was sealed back into that cage.

"Wait, wait a minute! Human!"

"I've told you everything you wanted to know! You can't go back on your word!"

—Just as the wall was about to close again, he was about to be completely sealed inside once more.

Jorogumo finally came to her senses and let out a hoarse scream.
