      Chapter 17: Fierce Battle at the Foot of Mount Hakuba Cover
      by Diswa The three of them walked through the mixed forest at the foot of the snowy mountain. Kamibayashi Miko's umbrella itself had a barrier. Within a three-meter radius, as long as they didn't use divine power, they wouldn't be seen. Minamoto Kiyomoto instantly thought of countless ways to use it, all of them related to crime. In fact, divine power itself could be used for crime, but without a demonic beast, it would leave obvious traces. Depending on the severity of the situation, one could be targeted…

      by Diswa April 8th, Thursday. Minamoto Kiyomoto followed Kamibayashi Miko and Himemiya Izayoi. The three of them went to the Onmyo Bureau to register, officially becoming "Purgers," and then chose a mission with a suitable time. A group of anti-human cultivators would meet at the foot of Mount Hakuba in Nagano Prefecture on April 10th. The mission of the three of them was to eliminate them. There were two ways to eliminate them. One was to purge them on the spot, which meant to kill them; the other was…

      Chapter 15: Preparation and Risks Cover
      by Diswa No matter what you do, you need to prepare. If there's something you haven't prepared for, it's only because the "preparation" for that thing has already been done in your past life. The same goes for accepting small missions, and there's even a lot to prepare for. The three of them left the Faculty of Law and Letters Building 2 and went to the small woods where Sanshiro Pond was located, talking as they walked. "Subjugating yokai is a 'battle'; subjugating human cultivators is a 'purge.' People…

      by Diswa Minamoto Kiyomoto had diligently attended a French literature class. After class, the three of them, each holding their textbooks, walked through the university campus under the starry sky. "What's that over there?" Himemiya Izayoi held her notebook to her chest, her long, slender, white fingers pointing at a brightly lit teaching building on her right. Minamoto Kiyomoto glanced in that direction, "The teaching building of the Faculty of Engineering." "Faculty of Engineering? What do they…

      Chapter 13: Role-Playing Cover
      by Diswa When Minamoto Kiyomoto arrived at the izakaya where he was supposed to meet his classmates, the sky had completely darkened. The streetlights cast a bright glow, stubbornly resisting the invasion of darkness. "Minamoto-kun, over here, over here!" In the misty izakaya, a young man at a table against the wall waved at him. "Why are you so late? I thought you weren't coming. I called you, but you didn't answer," a young woman at the same table complained. "You didn't go to class today. The professor…

      Chapter 12: Wind Control Curse Cover
      by Diswa In the hidden realm of Hakusan Shrine, Shirako sat on the red torii gate, swinging her slender legs, her delicate little face's eyes staring blankly into the distance. A light flowed before her, and two figures appeared. "Miko-sama!" she jumped down cheerfully and threw herself into the arms of the figure in the miko outfit. "I'm back," Kamibayashi Miko gently patted Shirako's shoulder and revealed a soft smile. Minamoto Kiyomoto stared at her profile. Kamibayashi Miko couldn't have feelings…

      Chapter 11: Rotten to the Core Cover
      by Diswa Cries, screams, reprimands. Minamoto Kiyomoto listened to these sounds and looked at everything before him. A young man was searching for his eaten fingers in a pile of cherry blossoms; a young woman, along with the cherry blossom petals, had forever become nourishment for the cherry blossom trees. Even with Kamibayashi Miko and Himemiya Izayoi, there were still people injured and killed. "Lady Divine Miko," a samurai with a long spear walked over, "this is the shikigami scroll of…

      by Diswa Tokyo Tower, at 332.6 meters high, is the third tallest self-supporting steel tower in the world. And at this moment, before Minamoto Kiyomoto's eyes, there were giant beasts as tall as Tokyo Tower everywhere. The divine breath spewing from the mouths of the giant beasts was like pink pillars supporting the sky, standing tall on the earth. "I have to fight this kind of thing?" he asked Kamibayashi Miko in disbelief. Kamibayashi Miko turned her head and looked at Minamoto Kiyomoto. Her soft lips…

      Chapter 9: Before Chidorigafuchi Cover
      by Diswa April 6th, the cherry blossoms in Tokyo reached full bloom. "All the world is a-bustle, the cherry blossoms fade in a flash, we meet but for a moment." "Matsuo Basho's haiku says: Under the trees, in the vegetable soup, cherry blossom petals fall." "After a week of blooming, they have finally reached their peak. Tokyo has been dyed a shade of pink by the blooming cherry blossoms. Grab a bento, take your family, and go eat under the cherry blossom trees." "Today, we speak only of poetry and…

      Chapter 8: The Cherry Blossom Blizzard of Gotokuji Temple Cover
      by Diswa At Gotokuji Station platform, the train slowly came to a stop. Passengers waiting to board had already crowded to the sides of the doors, just waiting for the people on the train to get off so they could immediately squeeze in. "I heard Gotokuji Temple has a lot of maneki-neko. I'll take this opportunity to pay my respects." "I can understand your desire for money, but those are fuku-neko." "Fuku-neko? They're clearly maneki-neko, raising a paw, squatting, exactly the same… hey, wait, they do…
