I am practicing in Tokyo

Chapter 89 Motive

"If this young man becomes a divine servant, there will be many benefits, such as longevity, extraordinary physical fitness, etc."

The silver-white eight-tailed fox, the jade-white Great God, spoke seductively, with its eight tails several feet long, swaying in mid-air.

I have a golden finger and don't need your benefit at all.

Fujii Shu thought to himself, but he couldn't tell the truth, so he could only pretend to be indifferent, shake his head and answer.

"No, thank you for your kindness. I just want to live as a normal person."

"Hey, okay then."

After all, the Great God of Yubai is the orthodox god of protection. He still can't bear to do such things as forcibly dragging people away. It's a pity that a human with excellent qualifications cannot become his messenger in the human world.

"Then you should have a good sleep and shower with divine light. It will be of great benefit to both humans and monsters. Consider it your reward this time."

With his tail swaying, Fujii Shu closed his eyes uncontrollably in the gentle tone of Yubai Daimyojin, fell to the ground in reality, and fell into a deep sleep.

——

Nagara Sosuke, whose left arm was injured, bandaged the wound painfully, hid deep in a remote alley, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

That girl has the majestic righteousness of an orthodox god. This injury will be difficult to heal for a while.

He judged the extent of his injuries. Fortunately, his consciousness only covered this body, and he was not a pure undead monster. He was a special half-man, half-ghost with limited restraint.

A burst of footsteps came from far away and stopped in front of him. Nagara Xiangsuke looked up and saw a man wearing a green devil mask and a tall black suit. He held a gorgeously decorated sword in his hand and said,

Watch yourself silently.

"Your Excellency, are you the master invited by the Ichikawa Gym? The members of the Sumiyoshi Kai were scared off by you that night, right?"

Ueno Shigeko asked, in fact, no matter whether it was like this or not, he would take action. What he was interested in was not just the money Sumiyoshi would add.

"It's useless to talk anymore, let's take action."

Nagara Sosuke saw the intention of the man who came and stood up with his sword. Although he was seriously injured, he would not sit still and wait for death.

The sword was reversed and unsheathed. An expectant expression appeared under Shiraki Ueno's mask. He held the hilt of the sword with one hand, dropped the scabbard, and stepped forward step by step.

Ten steps away, Nagara Sosuke held the end of the tiger's handle and stood upright.

Seven steps away, assuming an Iai posture, Nagara Sosuke watched his opponent's footsteps closely, without looking at the katana in his hand.

Five steps away, the buzzing of nearby insects gradually subsided, and the murderous aura filled the wild. The two people's Qi began to come into contact, and each other simulated the opponent's moves and their own moves in their artistic conception.

Three steps away, Kotetsu popped out the scabbard of his sword, and using the sword technique from bottom to top, Iairai slashed at Ueno Shigeaki.

"Qiang——!"

The two knives separated quickly in the collision. Ueno Shigeki reversed the blade and slashed it vertically again. Nagara Sosuke held Kotetsu with one hand in his right hand and blocked the blow with difficulty. The back of the knife pressed against the injured left shoulder, half

Kneel down.

If I hadn't been injured, I wouldn't have been so passive. Damn it! How can I fix it?

Nagara Sangsuke used all his strength to resist Ueno Sariaki's downward pressure with the knife. His opponent had already switched to holding it with both hands. With the blade of his right hand pointing upward, he held Ueno Sariaki's knife on his shoulder. His left knee touched the ground, forming a half-kneeling position.

attitude.

How can humans, with their fragile and ridiculous bodies, compete with monsters?

Seeing his reluctance, Ueno Shigeaki switched to holding it with his right hand, still suppressing Nagara Sosuke. The pupils of his eyes exposed by the demon mask alternately turned into vertical pupils, green and shining, like the pupils of a wild beast.

The skin that was not covered by the black suit, with clusters of gray hair growing out from under the skin, Ueno Shiraaki stood in front of people, revealing his true form.

There is a full moon in the sky, it is late at night, it hangs high above the sky, splashing silver light all over the ground, the green evil ghost mask can no longer cover the deformed and swollen head, a gray head that is seven parts like a wolf and three parts like a human.

The hairy wolf head is revealed ferociously.

"You're obviously a human, but you want to become a monster, and you're almost there. It's really strange."

Nagara Sosuke, who was still half-kneeling on the ground, gave a wry smile. He was half human and half ghost, while Ueno Nariaki was already seven parts demon and three parts human. Even ordinary people could see Ueno Nariaki in this state.

His abnormality.

"Monsters are the ultimate form of life. I swallowed the internal organs of a wolf demon and endured a lot of torture to gain such strength. But you, a dead soul, can easily be possessed and reborn, and your strength is also different from ordinary people.

It’s so unfair!”

The demonized Shigeaki Ueno lost his calmness just now. The ferocious wolf mouth spit out human words, and the transparent saliva fell on the white canine teeth, exuding bursts of putrid smell, dripping onto the cement floor, and splashing a puff of green smoke.

.

He raised his paw and pointed at an old wound that was winding like a centipede under the torn and ripped black suit on his chest.

"This was left by that little bitch Kamiya Rin. My men were just looking for trouble, but she came to my door. If she hadn't been familiar with the terrain and invited the God Queen, she could have easily killed me. Wait.

If I devour a few more little monsters, I can take revenge after becoming a big monster queen."

"You, come into my stomach and become part of the cornerstone of my revenge!"

The paw pointed at Nagara Sosuke again, and after the introduction, he was told to die as a clear ghost. Ueno Shigekō stretched out his free paw and grabbed Nagara Sosuke, who was suppressed by it.

Is it coming to an end? This life.

Nagara Sosuke closed his eyes in resignation, thinking regretfully in his heart that he was injured and no longer had the ability to struggle.

At this moment of despair, a red hand quietly grasped Ueno Shigeaki's paw. It looked back in surprise and saw a red-skinned girl wearing a high school skirt, with a pair of pairs of hair extending from her head.

Sharp bone protrusions split the corners of his mouth, and he was looking at himself up and down excitedly.

"Imi Saori, the Oni clan Shuten boy, come on!"

Before she finished speaking, the demonized Shigeaki Ueno was picked up by her with one hand and thrown flying into the alley's courtyard wall, causing a large area of ​​masonry to collapse.

"Don't let it get away, Saori-chan, your appearance fee is quite high."

From the shadow next to her, the cold windbreaker lady stepped out. It was Daigo Yumi from the Special Operations Division. She glanced at Nagara Sousuke and breathed a sigh of relief. She finally caught up with this special individual who can communicate and control easily.

It's not that easy to come across.

After checking the information about Nagara Sosuke's original identity, Daigo Yumi concluded that it was caused by possessions such as human souls. The Special Operations Section she was in had a precedent of being included. She was convicted and meritorious before causing more casualties.

It is also a very common method.

Therefore, she invited Imi Saori and took her to find Nagara Sousuke. She tried her best to capture him first and then deal with him to see if he could be included.

"I understand, the appearance fee of 30 million yen can't be reduced even a cent! I will also provide half of Kaguya-sama's head!"

The red-skinned Imi Saori was more beautiful than she was in the maid cafe. After a few reminders, she rushed into the collapsed courtyard wall.

"Where are you, at least half a year's worth of happiness money? Come out and have a fight!"

Saori Imi, who is the peak level of Daiyou, can exert less than 10% of her power in human form. However, compared to Ueno Shigeaki, who is not even a Daiyou, she is obviously completely crushed. Ueno Shigeaki just took advantage of being thrown out.

With such force, he had already fled hundreds of meters away, jumping up and down on the top of the house in the distance.

"Ah! I ran away, forget it, the mission is accomplished and I won't pursue you anymore."

Ijian Saori put up an arbor and watched Ueno Shigeaki escape. She didn't kill them all. Next time this guy makes trouble, she should still be able to make a profit.

"Mr. Nagara Sosuke, you will be arrested by the Special Operations Division for felony murder. You have the right to remain silent, but every word you say will become evidence in court."

Daigo Yumi took out a pair of handcuffs, cuffed the hands of Nagara Sosuke on the ground, and began interrogation.

"You now have two choices. One is to be punished by law and sentenced to more than twenty years in prison; the other is to join the Special Operations Section and serve a meritorious crime. You will be monitored at all times, but your movements will be relatively free. You will serve for five years and have one million yen during the period.

monthly salary.”

"Well, do I have any choice?"

Nagara Sangsuke groaned, raised the handcuffs on both hands, and chose the latter.

"Being a government hawk for a few years is much better than being in prison for twenty years. Can it be easily released?"

This guy is surprisingly realistic.

Daigo Yumi sighed and opened the handcuffs for him.

"Tell me about your origins, swordsman."

She pressed the switch of the recorder and started recording as data.

"Oh? My story is a long one..."

Nagara Sosuke stood up and put his sword back into its sheath. The moonlight stretched his shadow, and his thoughts went back hundreds of years ago to the early days of the Tokugawa Shogunate. At that time, he was still an ordinary student in a kendo gym, and his wish was to become a

A world-famous swordsman.

——

The first ray of sunlight in the morning shone on Fujii's peaceful face. Kamiya Rin woke up quietly, faced his face, and watched it carefully.

The bridge of the nose is high and straight, but at the right angle.

The lips are shallow but not frivolous.

The forehead is smooth, plump and smooth as jade.

Closed eyelids, long eyelashes that droop slightly.

These formed the face of a quiet and handsome young man. She couldn't help but reach out her hand and touch it gently, but just halfway there, Fujii Shu opened her eyes and looked at her behavior suspiciously.

"Good morning, Fujii-san."

Rin Kamiya withdrew his hand as if he had a guilty conscience and raised his upper body. On the floor not far away, the sleeping Shinnosuke turned over and opened his mouth to drool. He didn't know that he dreamed of something delicious.

"Good morning, Kamiya-san."

In fact, Fujii Shu, who knew everything, pretended not to know, got up and replied to Uncle Tianhai with a text message to report that he was safe. Fortunately, today is Saturday, and there are no classes for the senior high school students in the island country, but those who want to pass the university entrance examination will also

Just choose to go to cram school.

Tomorrow, I'm going to participate in the Manga Grand Prize. The reward is one million yen, so I can't miss it.

He remembered this important matter, pointed at the sleeping tanuki monster Shinnosuke, and asked curiously.

"Can you explain what these monsters are about?"

"Okay, since ancient times, humans and monsters have coexisted."

Kamiya Rin told the story without any concealment. Most of her information came from the Kamiya family secretary who had been passed down for thousands of years, and some of it was learned directly from the mouth of Yubai Daimyojin.

"In the primitive period when human beings were eating hair and drinking blood, high-dimensional creatures from another plane entered this world. They had no specific form at first, just a collection of energy consciousness. After thousands of years of evolution, they combined human imagination and this world.

The creature's appearance gradually took on a physical form and was called a monster. At this time, the aura between heaven and earth was sufficient, and mortals could occasionally see monsters, but humans and monsters never came into contact often."

"Thousands of years ago, the spiritual energy in the world was thin. The powerful monsters deduced that there was a tide of spiritual energy, and there would be a low tide that would last for thousands of years."

"They returned to their original world one after another and sealed the entrances and exits. They did not plan to return until their spiritual energy recovered after a thousand years."

"However, there are still some monsters who choose to stay, living in seclusion in the mountains and forests, or lurking in human society. There are also some immortals who are detached from reality and live in the nine heavens, always observing and maintaining the balance of the world."

"The seal will be opened in April next year. At that time, a large number of monsters will return to this world. Although they are afraid of the immortals in the sky and the gods below, and dare not cause trouble openly, there will definitely be some who can't help but secretly.

Hurting human existence.”

"So, please join Yubai Shrine and maintain peace in the world together, young man."

After saying the last sentence, Kamiya Rin picked up the tea bowl on the table where the fox statue was enshrined, made himself a cup, and drank it all.

"To maintain world peace? Is it just us and it?"

Fujii touched his chin, nodded at Shinnosuke on the ground, and asked hesitantly.

"Actually, we only need to be responsible for the Tokyo area, and we are not the only ones maintaining it. There are some Noragami and Futsujin, as well as well-meaning big monsters, who are also idle security forces."

Rin Kamiya, who has always been aloof, took off his usual disguise, clasped his hands together, and said sincerely.

"The government will also provide bounties for those monsters who cause trouble. This is how our Kamiya family made our fortune."

"Ding! If you kill monsters and other extraordinary creatures, you will get a lot of free attribute points."

Fujii's golden finger system also reminded him in time, making him look embarrassed.

I'm just a salted fish, I don't want to take this risk! Rin Kamiya, who begged monsters, almost died last night, which shows that it is a very dangerous thing.

On the other side, Uncle Tianhai, who had just received a message from Fujii that he was safe, put down his cell phone and walked down the stairs on the second floor. The floor of his home was messy and full of alien footprints, which caught his attention.

Did a wild cat or dog break in in the middle of the night?

Uncle Tianhai is quite caring. If he is still in the house, let's see if he can be adopted.

I followed the footprints and walked to the semi-open kitchen. Next to the open refrigerator, a furry creature squatted down and was eating something.

"Hi! Good dog."

After seeing the tail and head of the creature, Uncle Tianhai tried to say hello. Although it was a bit big, he should be able to raise it.

"Tell me, who is the dog?"

The wolf demon with a mouth full of blood turned into Shigeaki Ueno, putting down the raw meat in his hand, turning the wolf's head with a fierce look in his eyes. If he hadn't been discovered, he would have wanted to let this family go.

"Forehead?!"

Uncle Tianhai paused, and the hairs all over his body stood up. What kind of monster is this? The legendary werewolf?

"I'm going to slit your throat and teach you a lesson."

Ueno Shigeaki stood up, licked his palms, popped out several hook-like claws, and pounced on him.

Guess whether my uncle from another world will die, 0.0
