Tokyo Ghost Diary

After peeling off the golden cocoon, the first thing Sasaki Ayane saw when she opened her eyes was the back of the young man standing in front of her.

In front of him were devastated ruins and giant skeletal snakes that roared to heaven and earth. He pointed at the talisman with his sword, and the magnificent talisman formation full of mystery emitted a dazzling brilliance.

Hoshino Gen flicked his finger, and a large array of talismans shot out and landed on the head of the skeletal snake. Then, those densely packed talismans flew apart, spreading the size of the entire array to enough to encompass the entire serpent. .

Dozens of bright yellow talismans were flying around the sky like stars. Only the blood talisman located in the center of the formation was as firm and motionless as a red moon, emitting its own brilliance.

The great formation came down with pressure, like a miniature night curtain collapsing. Amidst the loud roar, white light drowned everything.

Sasaki Ayane couldn't help but cover her vision with her hands and closed her eyes tightly.

And when she put down her hands and opened her eyes again, she saw that the Jianmi Shrine, which had been barely intact before, had been completely destroyed from the courtyard to the front, leaving only a piece of charred land.

The big skeletal snake that was roaring to heaven and earth a few seconds ago was now covered in black smoke, its bones were covered with cracks, and its heads were hanging weakly.

There is no doubt that the blow just now severely damaged it.

But Sasaki Ayane only glanced at it for a few times and immediately withdrew her gaze, because she realized that after the white light passed, the back figure blocking her body also disappeared.

She searched for it and found that Hoshino Yuan was kneeling down beside him, holding his hands on the ground and breathing heavily.

Sasaki Ayane subconsciously wanted to help her, but her aunt's extremely weak voice sounded behind her: "Now, hurry up..."

She knew what her aunt was talking about. Now, in her two hands, there was a plain bow and an unblocked sword.

The origin of the bow is a mystery, but the sword has a very resounding name - Budu Yuhun.

The legendary Blade of the God of Death, the personal sword of the God of Thunder.

Ayane Sasaki stepped out of the golden cocoon and passed by Gen Hoshino.

She could feel the difference in herself now. She could feel that she could do many incredible things now, but... she didn't know where to start.

But there was no time for her to explore slowly now. She followed her aunt's instructions, raised the huge plain long bow in her hand, and used the mythical Budu Yuhun in her right hand as an arrow to rest on the bow string.

She struggled to pull it open, but the bowstring wouldn't budge.

Now she is like the ancients who got a missile operating system, like ordinary people coming into contact with computers for the first time.

Having just acquired a huge, unfamiliar power, and being able to use it like an arm - such a "miracle" does not seem to have happened to Sasaki Ayane.

"Help her..."

A faint voice sounded in Hoshino Yuan's ears. At this moment, his brain was a little numb, and his whole body was about to be wrapped in the black and red pollution aura. Suddenly, he became clear for a moment. He subconsciously raised his head and looked at the person standing not far in front of him. Here, Sasaki Ayane is holding up the bow, but cannot draw the string no matter what.

Gen Hoshino realized something. He gritted his teeth, forced himself to stand up, and staggered behind Sasaki Ayane.

He opened his hands, hugged her from behind, and rested his weight on her. At this moment, Sasaki Ayane's delicate body trembled slightly, but soon, she noticed that there was a hand larger than hers. , covering her own hands holding the bow and sword.

She turned her head slightly, deflected her gaze, and saw Gen Hoshino's delicate side face that was extremely pale and exhausted. At the same time, she also saw his left eye that was filled with scarlet red and made people feel uneasy from the bottom of her heart.

But at this moment, Sasaki Ayane felt that her slightly anxious heart just now quickly calmed down.

"..." An unprecedented feeling rose gently in her heart. The inexplicable emotion seemed to infiltrate her soul. But before the feeling could spread, Hoshino Gen's hoarse voice seemed to be suppressing something. It rang in her ears: "Concentrate, don't get distracted..."

Silently, Ayane Sasaki retracted her gaze from the side of his face and turned her attention back to herself. Soon, she noticed the huge energy in her body that she was completely unable to control, and suddenly it was as if she was being pulled by a hand. It flowed all over her body, and at the same time flowed down her hands and into the bow and sword in her hands.

hum-

I don't know if it was the trembling of the air or the trembling of the plain long bow that was finally pulled. Sasaki Ayane suddenly felt that the speed of her energy loss suddenly increased sharply, as if the exit like a faucet suddenly turned into a surging river. The entrance to the sea is average.

It was a bit painful, but she could bear it. Under her slightly frowning eyebrows, a pair of beautiful eyes stared closely at Budu Yuhun resting on the bowstring. She could vaguely sense where the critical point was...

Sure enough, after a few breaths, Hoshino Gen's voice sounded in her ears again. This time, he said: "Let go."

Sasaki Ayane and Hoshino Gen released their hands holding the bowstring at the same time.

As the bow string trembled, Budu Yuhun turned into a white rainbow and hit the body of the skeletal snake at a speed that the naked eye could not catch.

The huge body of the skeletal snake collapsed in the next moment, as if a miniature black hole appeared in his body. The concepts of space and time were lost. It seemed like it was just a moment, and it seemed like a long time passed. The figure of the big snake was twisted. Then, he was completely absorbed into a suspended sword.

The sword spun a few times in mid-air, then suddenly stabbed toward the ground. In the blink of an eye, it penetrated deep into the ground and disappeared without a trace.

Is this the end...?

Sasaki Ayane stared at the place where the big snake disappeared for a moment, until she noticed that the boy standing behind her had left, and then she turned around and looked. But at this glance, she immediately realized that something was wrong. At this moment, Hoshino Gen's eyes His eyes were red, and he was pressing his temples with both hands with a ferocious expression.

"What's wrong with you?" Sasaki Ayane dropped the plain long bow in her hand and quickly came to Hoshino Gen to help him.

But Hoshino Gen waved his hand: "Stay away from me..." His voice was completely out of shape, and his original accent was almost inaudible.

Countless negative emotions occupied his brain and consciousness, and endless pain and crazy desires invaded his soul.

The pollution has broken down his spiritual defense, and he has been irresistibly sliding into the abyss of destruction where he is annihilating himself and losing control of his mind.

Sasaki Ayane was a little frightened by Hoshino Gen's appearance at this moment, but she did not retreat immediately, but asked quickly: "What can I do to help you?"

"Stay away from me..." Gen Hoshino knelt down on one knee, held his head in his hands, and gritted his teeth.

Sasaki Ayane turned to the golden cocoon for help, only to find that the gap for her to come out had been healed, and the inheritance was still continuing, except that the object of the inheritance had been changed from her to Chiyo Uzuki... After all, according to her aunt, that As a "thousand-year career", her limit can only be 70%.

But no matter what, Hoshino Gen doesn't notice anything in the outside world now.

At this moment, he only felt as if he was immersed in a sea of ​​scalding blood. He was sinking in the blood, as if there were countless pairs of dark hands behind him dragging him, urging him to sink faster. Faster, faster...
