"Hurry up, as for these things, leave them to me!"

Seeing that the barrier was in effect, Mochizuki Che, who was naked and strong, ran towards the bottom of the stairs without looking back.

A kappa who had just climbed out of the window of the samurai house was smashed to pieces by his fist.

Like the previous "Seven-person Royal Front", the splashed stump turned into a dark liquid.

"The legendary Kappa, is Tianling Gai so calcium-deficient?"

Although these ghosts have terrifying shapes and strange killing methods, they somehow gave him the feeling of "paper tigers" that would shatter at the touch of a button.

"Captain, where are you going, retreat with us first!"

Although he didn't say it, the team members could see that his actions were buying time for everyone.

"Hey, it's rare that a guy promises to lend me some power for free..."

Mochizuki's pitch-black palm slowly spread out, condensing a mass of purple flames condensed to the extreme, and threw it forcefully to a platform below.

Several ghosts that had just climbed out of the painting were instantly annihilated in the purple flames.

"Just go down and see, what is it, it's making a mystery!!!"

The red-eyed Mochizuki Che, disregarding the call of the team behind him, let the purple flames on his body burn up the black liquid that splashed, and rushed into the dense group of ghosts and monsters below.

...

In the dilapidated main hall of the shrine, a little girl of about four years old, wearing a witch costume, was sitting in front of the shrine.

"In the name of... Aka... Akagi... Ji... Fate..."

In her mouth, word by word, she recited unfamiliar mantras like walking on thin ice.

"Wait...go..."

The talisman paper twisted at the fingertips was struggling to condense the faint blue spiritual power.

"……what!"

However, even though her fleshy little face was covered in sweat, the spiritual power that flickered like flames on the fingertips paper, was finally unsustainable and dissipated with the wind.

"Snapped."

The bamboo stick in the old man's hand was neither light nor heavy, but with enough pain that tears filled her eyes, it struck the back of the girl's hand.

"...Attention, not enough concentration."

The old man's serious expression was full of anger and sadness, and he looked a little distorted.

"With your talent, this little effort is simply not enough..."

The bamboo in his hand gradually grew sharp branches, flashing a faint green light...

"Those who don't work hard enough... will be punished!"

He waved fiercely at the girl in front of him.

"Snapped."

The girl's small white hands did not accept the punishment as cowardly as he imagined.

"How dare you..."

Instead, he raised his hand vigorously and grasped the sharp branch.

"Grandpa, I know..."

Even though the white and greasy fingers were cut and the blood dripped down her wrist, the girl still maintained a calm gaze, staring at the old man in front of her calmly.

"...Because I inherited half of the bloodline from the father of the person without spiritual power, no matter how hard I try, I can't catch up with the geniuses of those big families."

"Now that you know, you will have to pay the price of punishment..."

The old man, whose face became more and more hideous, pulled back the **** branch with all his strength.

His shape keeps twisting and turning into a demon with a huge head.

"I don't need you anymore... Akagi Shrine doesn't need you either..."

That sharp branch also transformed into a ferocious mace, swiping down at the girl fiercely.

"Go to die with your trashy father!!!"

"Snapped."

Facing the mace that was even bigger than her body, the girl just spread out her small hand and let it stop in the palm of her hand.

"how come……"

The power attached to that little hand made it impossible for the huge evil spirit in front of him to exert his strength.

"I really miss it... When I was a child, I was really scared of the punishment for my grandfather."

The girl slowly got up, and her figure began to change.

"But now, sorry, Grandpa... that's long gone."

When she straightened her waist, she had turned into a beautiful and dignified girl with long hair reaching her waist.

"I have already accepted it for a long time now. I am afraid of punishment, I have mediocre talents, and no matter how hard I try, I can't be the best self..."

On the talisman paper at her fingertips, surging spiritual power rose up.

"It is precisely because I can admit my imperfect self and face my fears that I can freely spread my wings and protect important things in my own way."

"Even your father, who you regard as a waste, is working hard in his own way..."

"In the name of Akagi Himeomi..."

With that tempered gesture, she silently gathered a talisman towards the evil ghost in front of her.

"Hey...hehehe...here, you can't..."

The evil ghost with a similar appearance to the old man opened his huge mouth and swallowed the witch's fair arm, and the spiritual power on the talisman dissipated.

"Only the smile on the witch's face can make the gods feel happy."

However, the girl in front of her had a flower-like smile on her face...

"That's what Grandpa said the night he became a Buddha..."

As if he didn't worry about his situation at all.

"And I have found someone who can make me smile anytime, anywhere, and something I want to protect."

A sinewy palm covered with burning scriptures broke through the darkness behind, and lightly rested on the fragrant shoulders of the girl's ice muscles and jade bones.

"...Wipe away the darkness in front of you."

With the dark red flame that swept over her arm, the girl waved the talisman in her hand.

"Uh ah ah ah ah..."

The raging, but inexplicably warm flames like lava swept through the world in the girl's eyes, burning out the evil spirit in front of her.

"...Come on, let me try these paintings on the same frequency first, how about it?"

When he came back to his senses, Little Bird Yumayumi returned to the bottom of the pavilion that was covered with no miserable paintings.

As if everything just now had never happened.

"Little Bird You, why are you suddenly in a daze?"

Sosuke Araki's hand was patted on her shoulder with concern.

"Well, I'm fine."

She shook her head shyly, and looked vigilantly at the innocent paintings around her...

Not far away, the original painting of a witch, without misery, had turned into a pile of ashes at some point in time.

"Teacher Araki, these paintings hide ghosts and corrupt people's hearts. They must be destroyed!"

"What I've been waiting for is your words... Compared to finding clues~lightnovelpub.net~ it's more suitable for me to do things like sabotage!"

With the permission of the "instructor", Sousuke Araki rolled up his sleeves like lightning and tore off the nearest paintings with his hands and feet.

"The material of this drawing paper, it's weird to tear it up... eh?"

He was still looking at the peculiar material of the drawing paper in his hand, and the dark red flame and black smoke suddenly rose from the painting, and rancid grease dripped "zizizi".

Just when Sousuke Araki threw the burning paintings to the ground, the space above the two of them suddenly became restless.

"It's noisy."

The feminine male voice that came from out of nowhere complained slightly annoyed.
