Zongman I fight weirdness in everyday world

She couldn't remember anymore.

How many evil spirits had she slain?

She had lost count.

Miko Yotsuya only remembered continuously swinging the Mikazuki Munechika, relentlessly slaying evil spirits, to the point where she could no longer lift her arms.

Within a hundred-meter radius around her, the eyes in the air were no longer wide open as they had been at the start. As Miko Yotsuya's power waned, these eyes gradually closed, eventually shutting tight.

The domain dissipated.

"Finally…"

Seeing the eyes in the air disappear, the Woman of the Witching Hour breathed a sigh of relief.

She looked at Miko Yotsuya, who was surrounded by evil spirits, with no trace of the contemptuous mockery from before.

The air was filled with wisps of black smoke formed after the evil spirits were slain.

Because Miko Yotsuya's speed in slaying evil spirits was too fast, it even exceeded the rate at which the black smoke dissipated, creating a hundred-meter radius of black mist in the real world.

And the thousands of evil spirits…

Now, less than a tenth remained, not even a hundred.

The Woman of the Witching Hour didn't know what the so-called domain expansion was.

She only knew that the eyes that appeared in mid-air seemed to provide Miko Yotsuya with a field of vision without blind spots, allowing her to move freely even when surrounded by layers of evil spirits.

Weaker evil spirits would freeze on the spot the moment they met those eyes, and some would even explode directly.

Fortunately, Miko Yotsuya didn't seem to be proficient in this ability.

Otherwise, thousands of evil spirits might have been lost here.

But in the end…

"My victory."

The Woman of the Witching Hour's lips curled into a cruel smile as she walked through the encirclement of evil spirits and slowly approached Miko Yotsuya.

She admired the other's body, not out of lust, or the natural hostility of evil spirits towards spiritualists, but a fervent desire to occupy this body.

"Your body…"

The Woman of the Witching Hour reached out her hand, the madness in her eyes becoming more and more obvious.

"Is mine."

Just as the Woman of the Witching Hour's hand was about to touch Miko Yotsuya, a girl's voice came from not far away.

"Please!"

The moment these three words fell, before the Woman of the Witching Hour could turn her head, she felt the sky darken instantly.

"Boom!"

A huge roar echoed in the clouds.

The Woman of the Witching Hour felt an instinctive sense of danger and retreated dozens of meters away without hesitation.

Blinding lightning struck the ground, accurately hitting the evil spirits.

"That is…"

Miko Yotsuya, who had already prepared to die, her golden eyes dimmed due to exhaustion, heard the familiar voice and struggled to raise her head.

In the black smoke of the dissipating evil spirits, she saw a familiar figure running towards her.

"Miko, are you okay?!"

Hana Amano quickly ran to Miko Yotsuya's side, her face full of anxious concern, and supported the other's body.

"Hana… Hana…"

Miko Yotsuya barely managed to squeeze out a smile.

"You… you can finally see evil spirits now?"

Hearing this question, a hint of complexity flashed in the depths of Hana Amano's eyes, but she pretended to be nonchalant and replied.

"Yeah, I'll explain later. A member of the Metropolitan Police Department contacted me and said that something happened in this power plant and they needed my help, so I came."

"I see… so that's how it is…"

Miko Yotsuya had almost forgotten that Beyond was still had Hana Amano, a spiritualist with special abilities.

She had forgotten, but it seemed that Rio Futaba hadn't.

Apart from Yozora, the members of Beyond didn't know that Hana Amano had the ability to "observe" and harm evil spirits since the Itomori Town incident.

Rio Futaba's initial idea was that since Hana Amano couldn't "observe," she wouldn't be harmed by ordinary evil spirits.

In this case, not seeing evil spirits was an advantage.

Although Hana Amano couldn't be harmed by evil spirits, nor could she harm them, it was a different story for special existences like the Woman of the Witching Hour, who had occupied a human body.

Of course, if Miko Yotsuya hadn't been in a desperate situation, Rio Futaba wouldn't have wanted Hana Amano, whose physical fitness was only that of an ordinary human and who had no abilities other than manipulating the weather, to participate in such a dangerous operation.

But with Yozora not around, Beyond could only use all its strength to save Kyoto City.

"Tch… who is this… again…"

Hana Amano's appearance made the Woman of the Witching Hour frown.

The reason was simple.

The original plan hadn't considered the intervention of this seemingly ordinary human girl.

After returning from Itomori Town, Hana Amano had been able to observe evil spirits, but like Miko Yotsuya at the beginning, she chose to ignore them.

On the one hand, this was Yozora's suggestion, saying that only by being able to remain calm in the face of evil spirits that could appear at any time was one suitable to become a professional exorcist.

On the other hand…

Hana Amano had realized that the reason she awakened her yin-yang eyes was similar to that of Shoko Makinohara.

Shoko Makinohara was close to death.

And she… as the number of prayers increased, the semi-transparent, seven-colored area of her body grew larger, becoming increasingly close to disappearing into the divine realm.

Amano Hina didn't want the members of the Over-Supernatural Club to feel sad or pressured because of her, so she concealed the news.

Looking at the low-level evil spirits, of which only a dozen or so remained after being mostly annihilated by the lightning strike just now, and then seeing Yotsuya Miko's golden eyes, the Woman of the Witching Hour couldn't help but grit her teeth and retreat silently.

Due to Amano Hina's sudden intervention, the original plan was disrupted.

It seems impossible to take over the body of that psychic girl.

However… the time is almost up.

"Retreated, huh…"

Watching the Woman of the Witching Hour disappear into the darkness, Yotsuya Miko had no intention of pursuing her.

Her power was almost completely exhausted.

Amano Hina's ability seemed quite intimidating to the ghosts.

In reality, Amano Hina was a so-called glass cannon.

Her attack power was extremely high, but her defense was approximately zero.

Rather than chasing after the Woman of the Witching Hour, Yotsuya Miko prioritized Amano Hina's personal safety.

After all…

Once Yozora returns to the real world, none of these things will be able to escape.

"Miko…"

Hearing Amano Hina's voice, Yotsuya Miko勉强 mustered her energy and said.

"What's wrong?"

As soon as Yotsuya Miko finished speaking, she noticed a look of fear in Amano Hina's eyes, who raised her hand and pointed forward, murmuring.

"That… what is that…"

Yotsuya Miko followed the direction of her finger and saw a wooden white door standing quietly in the distance.

"This is a 'door'? No… it feels different."

Yotsuya Miko frowned slightly, observing the white door in the distance, wondering if this was also a "door."

Why is the shape and the feeling it gives her completely different from ordinary "doors"?

Just then, the white door was suddenly pushed open.

In the shocked gazes of Yotsuya Miko and Amano Hina, a huge red and black vortex cloud spewed out from the crack in the door, flying towards the sky.

Accompanying the appearance of the red and black vortex cloud, thread-like golden rays emerged from the ground, converging towards the vortex cloud in the sky.

"This… what exactly is this?"

Chapter 223: The One Who Closes the Door, Terror in the Black Mist

As more and more golden threads poured into the black and red vortex cloud in the sky, Yotsuya Miko and Amano Hina felt the ground beneath their feet begin to tremble.

At first, they thought it was just an illusion caused by the overwhelming sight before their eyes, making their heads spin.

But then…

The earthquake became more and more obvious, and the ground even began to shake directly.

"This is! ?"

Yotsuya Miko braced herself, looking at the open white door, her golden eyes filled with disbelief.

"The earthquake… is this thing causing it?"

As the black and red vortex cloud gathered in the sky, Yotsuya Miko and Amano Hina could feel the shaking of the ground beneath their feet becoming more and more intense.

The two girls simultaneously came to a realization.

This black and red vortex cloud was the culprit behind the earthquake, and this thing was emanating from that white door.

As long as the door is closed, the earthquake can be stopped.

Without the slightest hesitation, Yotsuya Miko braced her exhausted body and rushed directly towards the open white door, placing her hands on it, trying to close it with all her might.

She gritted her teeth, her golden eyes shining, and the Mikazuki Munechika, which had already been sheathed at her waist, seemed to sense something, automatically leaving its scabbard, its pale golden blade also pressing against the door.

"Damn it…"

Yotsuya Miko mobilized all the spiritual power in her body, trying to forcibly close the door, but the white door remained motionless, and her already limited spiritual power was being consumed at an alarming rate.

"Does it need to be closed with a key…"

Seeing the keyhole on the white door, Yotsuya Miko realized this.

But even if she realized it, what could she do?

She didn't have a key.

Not to mention a key, Yotsuya Miko had never even seen or heard of a mysterious door that could cause earthquakes before.

"Miko!"

Seeing Yotsuya Miko's struggling and difficult appearance, Amano Hina did not hesitate at all, ran directly to the white door, leaned her whole body against it, and pushed hard.

But the next second, Amano Hina realized that she didn't feel the slightest bit of effort.

It was like leaning against a wall, no matter how hard she tried, it wouldn't have any effect.

"Hina, you don't have any spiritual power in your body, leave here quickly!"

Yotsuya Miko immediately realized the reason.

Amano Hina was not a true psychic in the real sense, at most she could only be considered to have the talent and a constitution that might awaken spiritual abilities.

Her changing the weather and summoning lightning were actually done through prayer and making a portion of her body disappear into the divine realm, in order to obtain the help of that Weather God.

Amano Hina herself, apart from being able to "observe" evil spirits and ghosts with her yin-yang eyes, did not yet possess any special powers.
