I, Den-O, the Contract Urban Legend

Anyway, to the old ratmen, humans are just like bread, just consumables.

Ok……

It might seem a bit against the original design of the old rat, but in this world where even Nura looks handsome, nothing is impossible!

The old rat man transformed his rat-like appearance into a handsome human face, showing a cowherd smile, and stretched out his hand to Hanakaiin Yuura, "Hey, woman, at least put this troublesome guy away first."

Hanakaiin Yuura silently watched the pretentious old rat man walking towards her. Looking at his appearance, she gradually began to get angry. It was already a certain time, and this guy failed to attack her, and now he had the audacity to come up to her and ask her to take the Shikigami back?

Qi Kexiu, do you think I, a talented young Onmyoji, am an idiot?

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Hanakaiin Yuura slapped the old rat man's outstretched hand away and shouted, "Don't touch me, rat demon!"

"……what?"

The old rat man never thought that someone would dare to disobey him. He was so angry that even the disguised human face could not be maintained. The rat demon's unique fur and pupils were uncontrollably revealed again.

"Oh, did I hear you right? How dare you disobey me? Disobey my orders?"

It’s a pity that Inoue Ue was not there, otherwise he would definitely remember something because of the familiar voice of the old rat man.

The rat demons showed fear on their faces and began to discuss in low voices.

"hiss……"

"oops……"

"That girl is finished..."

The old rat man snapped his fingers, and a large number of rats poured out from all directions.

“Ah, don’t mess around—”

Upon hearing this, Hanakaiin Yuura panicked and quickly turned to look at the parent Kana.

I saw the parent Kana behind me screaming, covering her skirt and trying to shake off the mouse that was crawling on her.

"Greedy Wolf!"

The old rat man seized the opportunity, grabbed Hanakaiin Yuura's shoulder, and said in a deep voice, "Muda, there are an endless supply of rats here. Even if you have such a large white wolf, what good is it? Can you really deal with so many small rats? Can you really save your friend in time?"

Just as he expected, although the Onmyoji's Shikigami was powerful, she and the girl behind her were ordinary people who were powerless. So it would be enough to skip the summoned beast and attack the person directly. The Shikigami would not be a threat at all.

"Listen to me, put your Shikigami away... Or do you want to watch your friends get eaten by rats?"

"Tsk."

Looking at her parent Kana who was surrounded by rats, Hanakaiin Yuura had no choice but to recall the Shikigami.

When the old rat man saw that the Shikigami was recalled, he finally put down the stone in his heart, showed a ferocious smile, and slapped Hanakaiin Yuura hard.

Hanakaiin Yuura groaned and fell to the ground.

"Weren't you very arrogant just now, Miss Onmyoji?"

|)ＭＯ

Watching the plot twist after twist, Miss Yukinoshita stood outside the alley, stunned.

Now after seeing Hanakaiin Yuura fall down, she finally came to her senses. Her purpose was to save them, right?

If this continues, they will die, right?

How to do?

【Then fight! Fight! Fight!】

As soon as she finished speaking, an amber light flashed in Yukinoshita Yukino's eyes, and then she clenched her hands into fists and slowly walked in front of the rat people.

"There's no other choice, so I'll just have to fight. If a coward like me can't change the world, then I'll start by changing myself... From now on, I'll follow the way of heaven and control everything!"

——As long as I defeat all the monsters with my fists, that will be enough, right?

For some reason, Yukinoshita Yukino felt a sudden sense of confidence and pure faith...

It may sound a bit arrogant, but it feels like it could work!

"Wait, why would I think that?"

Although Yukinoshita Yukino realized that something was wrong with her, she had already exposed herself to the rat demons.

Chapter 48 I Have Grasped the Future Now (Major Revision)

"Hey...why did we suddenly end up buying groceries on the way home?"

Miss Sadako and Inoue Ueya are shopping for groceries in the supermarket.

"Stop talking nonsense. You're free right now. If you two take it together, you can buy more things to leave at home..."

Miss Sadako suddenly stopped talking mid-sentence. A blue light flashed in her eyes. She seemed to sense something and whispered, "Hmm, is this aura from a stupid cow? No, but it seems a little different."

"Ah? How's Sachiko?"

"I sensed a presence similar to hers nearby, but it was a bit fluctuating, as if it had encountered some kind of problem."

Inoue Ue also frowned, then asked: "Ah, didn't something happen to her?"

【Sachiko, are you there? 】

[Hey, it's so late, why don't you go home? I'm starving!]

[Um, wait a moment. Sadako and I are shopping at the supermarket.]

[My dear husband, is there anything wrong? ]

[Uh, Sachiko, are you okay? ]

"Are you okay? I'm watching Pretty Cure with Hanako-chan."

「That’s enough, stop calling me Hanako-chan ahhhh——」

[Wow, this is too much... Why are Sachiko's seniors and juniors so mean? ]

【Well, I'm glad you're okay. Don't worry, we'll be back soon.】

Inoue Ue finally breathed a sigh of relief, "That's great, Sachiko seems to be fine..."

Miss Sadako shrugged and continued looking at the merchandise on the shelf, muttering to herself, "Well, maybe she once possessed someone with the power of the Demon God. Otherwise, the other person wouldn't have such a similar aura..."

"Eh?"

Someone who was once possessed by Yashakuyuki?

...Could it be Yukinoshita Yukino?

"Sadako, why don't we go over and take a look? Mr. Inoue is a little worried..."

……

The rat demons all turned their attention to the suddenly appeared Yukinoshita Yukino, "Captain, there's a woman passing by here, do you want to capture her as well?"

Looking at the rat demons in front of her, Yukinoshita Yukino said calmly, "Let them go."

After watching for so long, the rat demon's terrifying appearance seemed to no longer scare Yukinoshita Yukino. And for some reason, she seemed to have awakened something now. Her body was inexplicably full of strength, and she always felt that she could easily defeat the opponent.

Hearing this, the old rat man looked at Yukinoshita Yukino with great interest, and then said, "Oh wow, someone actually stepped forward to be a hero?"

But the old rat man remembered the two girls behind him and his own mission. He shrugged again and said, "What a pity. You are not our target. There is no need to keep you alive."

Hanakaiin Yuura was lying on the ground, trying to warn Yukinoshita Yukino with a weak voice, "Run away, run away quickly..."

The old rat man turned around, his back to Yukinoshita Yukino, waved his hand, and said softly, "Kill him or eat him, it's up to you."

As soon as he finished speaking, the rat demons pounced on Yukinoshita Yukino like sharks smelling blood.

However, as she watched the rat demons approaching step by step, Yukinoshita Yukino always maintained a calm and composed expression.

Why……

Why did she have a strange feeling?

A feeling of inexplicable confidence, as if the whole world was supporting her from behind.

It seemed as if there was a voice in her mind telling her that as long as she wanted, the rat demon in front of her would not be able to even touch her.

Ignoring the attacks of the rat demons, Yukinoshita Yukino did not dodge or evade, but just kept walking forward, straight towards the two girls in front of her.

I reached out to grab it, but just missed it.

Those who flew over also missed.

"Nani?"

It was like a wonderful coincidence, no, it could even be called an incredible scene, all the attacks from the rat demons failed, and Yukinoshita Yukino, who was unharmed, continued to move forward.

"No matter what, I won't follow anyone's orders anymore." Yukinoshita Yukino maintained a calm expression on her face. The rat demons' attack failed, and they looked surprised. Everything happening before her eyes was all natural to her.

"I am who I am. I am Yukinoshita Yukino. The path I take is decided by myself!"

Inoue Ueya and Miss Sadako stood outside the alley, each holding a plastic bag full of things in their hands, staring at Yukinoshita Yukino in amazement.

Is there something a little bit off about this Yukinoshita Yukino in front of me?

The old rat man smiled and said slowly, "Oh, are you coming over here? Instead of running away, you're choosing to approach me, Old Rat?"

Undeterred by his words, Yukinoshita Yukino looked at the old rat man and walked straight forward, her eyes still calm. "If I don't move forward, I won't be able to save these two girls."

"It seems you're just an ordinary person, right? You just managed to dodge your subordinates' attacks by sheer luck. You might not be so lucky next time, okay?"

"It's no use. I can do this again anytime I want."

There was no emotion in Yukinoshita Yukino's tone, as if she was stating a fact.

At this moment, Yukinoshita Yukino finally remembered the reason why she imitated Yukinoshita Haruno.

Because when she was a child, she admired Yukinoshita Haruno, that sister who was as dazzling as the sun, and longed to be like her.

But she no longer keeps her eyes on the sun...

Now Yukinoshita Yukino is going to become the sun.

"It's not "I will change the world", but "I will make the world change because of me", this is the real me... I am not Yukinoshita Haruno, I am Yukinoshita Yukino!"

Mr. Inoue's expression began to become serious, completely different from Yukinoshita Yukino before. Although she looked extremely calm in front of him, Inoue Ueya could feel her extraordinary self-confidence.

"Hiss, in just a few days, her heart has changed so much. What on earth did Yukinoshita Yukino go through..."

No, could it be related to the aura of Sachiko that Miss Sadako mentioned?

"It doesn't matter what happens to her. Didn't you see the girl behind that rat man?"

After hearing what Miss Sadako said, Inoue Ueya turned his attention to Hanakaiin Yuura lying on the ground.

“Flowers are blooming in the yard!!”

Inoue Ueya finally remembered that this was the plot in Nura: Rise of the Nura: Rise of the Nura!

"Assholes! What do you want to do to Mr. Inoue's friends..."

As he said this, he threw the plastic bag in his hand aside and Mr. Inoue rushed forward.

"Wow, stupid Ueya!"

Miss Sadako used her ability to create several palm-sized clones and caught the plastic bag that Inoue Ueya threw away.

"What? There are more and more annoying guys..."

Seeing another person walking in from the alley, Old Rat frowned and began to get a little impatient. Time had been dragged on for too long, and he didn't want anything to go wrong with the task given to him by the boss.

So he snapped his fingers again, and mice came pouring out from all directions again.

"That's it. Let's just die in the sea of ​​rats."
