Zongman I fight weirdness in everyday world

The Matchmaking God first jumped up and down, uttering that sentence, directly stripping the black figure of its divine status. Then, with a proud expression, he pointed at himself and added.

"Someone like me is a true god."

"That's right, no problem."

Ye Xing first humored him like a child, after all, the Matchmaking God had made a great contribution this time, and deserved praise.

Praise him now, then 'burst' him later tonight, no conflict.

"Judging from this guy's taste, he's a malicious spirit born in the Reverse World, not like the Weather Gods, who originally existed in this world."

Hearing Ye Xing's words, the girls all wanted to complain, what kind of tongue do you have?

Being able to taste malicious spirits is one thing, but to be able to taste their place of origin?

Exorcism on the tip of your tongue?

Futaba Rio forcibly suppressed the urge to complain, and played the role of the Overload Club's chief strategist, thoughtfully.

"But… recently, there haven't been any death-related incidents. If I had to say, that serial killer would be one, but the Metropolitan Police Department has completely blocked the news, and it hasn't caused a sensation in society. Also, the timing doesn't match. And why was this guy suddenly born?"

"Born…"

The black figure, listening to Futaba Rio and Ye Xing's words, spoke as if at a loss.

"What… what birth…"

"You don't even know that? Seems like the more foolish type."

From this sentence, Futaba Rio immediately judged that the other party, like the previous Hachishaku-sama, had a misunderstanding about its own existence.

Originally, it was a malicious spirit born from the Reverse World based on human negative emotions, but due to confused memories, it thought it had existed in this world for a long time.

"It should be related to the case that Yagami Light and Ryuzaki are investigating."

Ye Xing replied nonchalantly, then slightly opened his mouth and swallowed all the smoke that the black figure had turned into.

"Pui, pui, pui, so disgusting…"

Futaba Rio rolled her eyes and said unhappily.

"Disgusting? You still ate it even if it's disgusting?"

Ye Xing shook his head and replied seriously.

"No, no, no, there are no disgusting malicious spirits in this world. It must be that my method of eating it was wrong. Next time I encounter this guy, I should grill it."

…

After the black figure was swallowed, this area created based on Shoko Makinohara's memories also dissipated.

When they returned to the real world, Yui Yuigahama and the others found that they had returned to the previous intersection, as if they had never left.

After the other members left, Ye Xing and Shoko Makinohara first sent the Killing Ghoul off on the late-night train to Tokyo, and then went to the familiar shopping street store.

"Hello, hello, you two old-timers."

Hearing Ye Xing's voice, Oda Noto and Granny Reverend, who were sitting behind the counter, looked up. Seeing Shoko Makinohara behind him, and feeling the faint spiritual power emanating from her, the two old-timers had only one thought.

The harem has become bigger, and the spirit users have also become more numerous.

"What are you here for this time? Fortune-telling?"

Granny Reverend knew that Ye Xing usually wouldn't come to the store. Without Ye Xing even speaking, she already understood, took out her tarot cards and started shuffling them. Then, she placed all the cards face down on the table and shrugged.

"Ask a question, then flip three cards yourself. This is a new fortune-telling method I've researched. Three cards are more detailed, but with my current spiritual power, I should be able to handle it."

"Really?"

Ye Xing asked with a smile.

"Aren't you afraid that you'll flip them and directly kill yourself?"

"Hey, you kid, you're still as rude as ever."

Granny Reverend glared at Ye Xing unhappily, then waved her hand.

"It's okay, did you forget that I left an insurance card inside? If it's a question that I can't answer with my ability, that blank insurance card will be flipped out, and it won't backfire on me."

"Alright."

Ye Xing nodded and asked the first question.

"What is the identity of the mastermind who planned and created that black figure?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he flipped over the first card.

Death.

"This card doesn't mean anything."

Even interpreting it literally, Ye Xing couldn't derive any meaningful information from this card, so he immediately flipped over the second card.

Judgment.

"This card…"

Shoko Makinohara, who was on the side, noticed that when Ye Xing flipped over this card, he rarely showed a frowning expression.

This made her very curious.

Death and Judgment, do these two cards have any special meaning together?

But the third tarot card that Ye Xing flipped out next made everyone stunned.

"The Fool…"

Before Granny Reverend could finish reading the name of the tarot card, she saw the air in front of her suddenly distort. Then, the pattern on the card, which was originally the Fool, suddenly began to wriggle. After a few seconds, it formed something similar to the Fool, but the pale, almost comical, face with a strange smile had two lines of blood tears flowing down, making people feel a little creepy at first glance.

"What kind of card is this…"

Just as Granny Reverend was feeling puzzled, Ye Xing whispered the name of this tarot card.

"The Clown."

Granny Reverend seemed even more confused when she heard this.

"The Clown? Isn't the Clown the Fool… Moreover, there's no such card in my deck. Is this a change caused by your spiritual power… What does this foretell…"

Speaking of this, Granny Godmother looked up at Yaehoshi, a worried expression on her face.

She recalled the tarot reading she had done when she first met Yaehoshi, in which the Death and Judgement cards appeared.

And at that time, the question Yaehoshi asked was… the identity of a future assistant.

The difference was that Yagami Light's third tarot card was Justice, while this time, the answer to the question was the Fool, or rather, the Clown transformed from the Fool.

Could it be that… Yagami Light… is the mastermind behind all of this? Has he betrayed us?

"That's impossible."

Yaehoshi seemed to see through Granny Godmother's thoughts, revealing a slight smile and speaking softly.

"He trusts me absolutely, and I, too, trust him absolutely."

Granny Godmother was touched by these words, wanting to say that this was the bond between young people, but Yaehoshi's next sentence left her speechless.

"In the bond of power that forms my greatest trump card, Izanagi, he is the only male."

"To be able to form a bond with the God of Harem as a man."

"Do you even understand what kind of value that holds?"

Chapter 468: The Assistant of Eternal Calamity, Shoko Makinohara's Special Training

Hearing Yaehoshi's words, Granny Godmother was speechless.

Indeed, the title of the closest male companion to the God of Harem, who could even be called a bond, held too much value.

Furthermore, Granny Godmother had never met Yagami Light in person, only hearing about him from Yotsuya Miko and the others, that the Overload Society had an assistant named "Kira" studying in Tokyo.

Since Yaehoshi trusted him, then she would trust Yaehoshi's judgment.

After all, he had never been wrong.

"Then, the second question."

Through the first tarot reading, Yaehoshi changed his mind.

"For this question, I only want to draw one card."

Yaehoshi realized that it wasn't that the more cards were drawn in a divination, the more accurate the result would be; sometimes, one card was more accurate than three.

Aside from characters like Yagami Light, who had distinct characteristics and could be immediately associated, think about it, before most members of the Overload Society awakened as assistants, if their identities were divined, the tarot cards that appeared would likely repeat, even more than just one card, but two, or even three.

Considering this situation, choosing a single card divination to directly represent the most obvious characteristic of the next assistant was clearly a more reasonable choice.

"One card? Alright, reveal it."

After Granny Godmother reshuffled the tarot cards, Yaehoshi casually revealed one card.

However, the card that appeared this time was still somewhat unexpected by the four people present.

"This card is… Eternal… Calamity?"

Granny Godmother was completely stunned when she saw another tarot card that shouldn't have been in the deck appear.

What was going on?

Was it because the question Yaehoshi asked was too tricky, or was her divination already so accurate?

When there wasn't a suitable card in the deck to describe it, it would directly create one?

Was this divination or magic?

"Eternal Calamity…"

Unlike Oda Notou, Granny Godmother, and Shoko Makinohara, who were puzzled and didn't understand why this card appeared, Yaehoshi guessed the identity of the next assistant the moment he saw this card.

Amadeus.

The tarot card of Eternal Calamity has one meaning, which is to symbolize eternity.

And the so-called eternity, according to the unwritten rules of a certain game series, usually symbolizes non-human creatures.

Of course, that game series broke this unwritten rule in its fifth installment.

However, Yaehoshi thought carefully, if he really wanted to talk about non-humans and beings who could potentially become assistants, then there was only Amadeus.

Speaking of which… wasn't the other party already an assistant of the Overload Society?

Or was it that in the future, Amadeus, who could only stay in the Tokyo Reverse Side to avoid interference from the world lines and maintain her existence, would undergo some kind of change, allowing her to move freely?

After all, it was just a tarot card prediction; it was still too difficult to deduce the detailed events that might happen in the future.

"Cough cough cough…"

Hearing Granny Godmother's cough, Shoko Makinohara, with her gentle and kind nature, quickly asked with concern.

"Granny, what's wrong? Did you use too much spiritual power? Take a break."

"This old woman is fine."

Seeing Shoko Makinohara caring about her so much, Granny Godmother revealed a kind and benevolent smile, then glanced at Yaehoshi standing there, and said unhappily.

"You brat, you really have a lot of luck with women; every girl around you, including that cold-faced but warm-hearted Touma Kazusa, is a good girl, and they all fell into your hands, you really got a good deal."

"Stop joking."

Yaehoshi waved his hand, speaking with righteous conviction.

"Isn't it a great deal for them to be with me?"

Granny Godmother: "…Perhaps this arrogance of yours is also a source of your power; I've never seen anyone as narcissistic as you."

"Speaking the truth, how can this be called narcissism?"

"Yes, yes, yes, it's this unceremonious, not feeling like you're being narcissistic at all, and taking it for granted attitude; you brat, you really got a good deal and are still acting coy."

"Who exactly got the good deal, those who understand, understand."
