"That's too harsh. But I can't refute it. "
Amami joked at first, then his tone turned serious as he spoke softly.
"Ah, I'm just talking to myself … Tsuchimikado Yekata's relic [Crow's Feather] is currently sealed in the Yin-Yang Hall's warehouse. Miyo-chan knows about it, right?"
"Yeah."
"Yeah, of course you know. After all, the Yin-Yang Hall made a public announcement, and [D] should know about it as well. Logically speaking, that guy's Spirit-branded Retainer appearing in front of the Yin-Yang Hall's office should be evidence that he knows about it. [Most] people in the Yin-Yang Hall should think that guy wants to steal the sealed [Crow's Feather] — — that should be the case. "
Knowing that Amami wasn't finished, Kurahashi Daimei didn't interrupt and silently waited for him to continue.
"However, there's a strange rumor about the [Crow's Feather]. It's an absurd rumor that the [Crow's Feather] stored in the Yin-Yang Hall isn't the original, but a fake. Miyo-chan knows about this as well, right?"
"Well …" Kurahashi Daimei's tone didn't change, but her gaze towards Amami's Eagle Spirit-branded Retainer suddenly sharpened, as if she was about to unsheathe a sharp blade.
"Whether that guy knows about this or not, probably only a God knows. But … as I mentioned before, his current target is hard to grasp. From my standpoint, I want to be fully prepared so that I won't fail no matter what … Well, that's hard to do in reality. At the very least, Miyo-chan needs to have a firm grasp of the situation." Amami's sinister laughter came out of Eagle's mouth.
"Understood," Kurahashi Daimei said lightly. Then. Her voice became gentle. "Amami-kun."
"Yes?"
"Thank you."
Amami didn't expect this, as he was controlling Eagle Spirit-branded Retainer from afar, he didn't react in time. After a while, he spoke with a completely different tone than before.
"My apologies, I've done my best."
Then, Amami's aura disappeared from Eagle's body. Amami flapped his wings slightly, brushing away the rainwater on his body, and then flew away from the bed, disappearing into the misty rain.
…
"A rare weekend. I didn't expect to be brought back to life by [D]. " In the headquarters of Yin Yang Hall, in the Spell Search Department, which was in charge of the Twin Horns Society's case, a man named Bibata Ryuji complained as he stretched his back.
However, he couldn't be blamed for complaining. It was rare for him to have a day off. But he didn't expect to run into such a situation. His original plan to accompany his girlfriend was completely ruined. No one would be in a good mood if this happened to him.
Of course, he wasn't the only one on standby in the office. There was also Suzu Ito and other members of the Spell Search Department who were responsible for the Twin Horns Society's investigation.
"Despicable [D]!" Tobirama Ryuji cursed.
Suzu Ito, who had been working in the Spell Search Department for more than two months, was familiar with [D]. He was a powerful spellcaster who had caused several major spiritual disasters in the history of his appearance. He was a wanted criminal of the Yin Yang Hall. Apart from that, he was also an important member of the Twin Horns Association. Based on the information he had received so far, he was fully capable of commanding the members of the Twin Horns Association to carry out their operations.
Take the Yizhi incident for example.
That's right, the Yizhi incident. Although Jing Linglu, who should have played an important role in this incident, was killed by Suzu Ito and the others, he was only an important member and not the instigator of the incident. Therefore, even without him, this incident would still happen during the first-year combat test of the main characters in the original work. Moreover, Suzu Ito, who was working in the Black Branch at that time, also participated in the incident and displayed her powerful spell skills. That was why she was discovered and recruited by the headquarters.
Back to the main topic, this time, the mysterious [D] not only used the name Douman Ashiya, he also issued a challenge in a very high-profile manner. Like the strange bandit Gideon, he stated his purpose. This was equivalent to looking down on the prestige of the Yin Yang Hall. Therefore, regardless of whether it was for the sake of [D] or to protect the important evidence [Crow Feather], the Yin Yang Hall had no choice but to take this action seriously. That was why Suzu Ito and the others were on standby.
It was worth mentioning that [D]'s Douman Ashiya wasn't just a name. At the same time, it could also represent a person. A thousand years ago, during the Edo period, he was equally famous as the Great Yin Yang Master Abe Seimei. Furthermore, he was considered an enemy of the Great Yin Yang Master. At the same time, he was also the founder of several Yin Yang Master schools in the main world — Douman Ashiya!
As for the [Crow Feather], it referred to a large robe. However, it was different from ordinary robes. This robe was the favorite item of this world's peerless Yin Yang Master, Tsuchimikado Yeguang. At the same time, it was his weapon, armor, and shikigami. It could form a resonance with Yeguang's soul. So far, it was the only item that could prove who was the real Tsuchimikado Yeguang. Therefore, it was a must-have item for the fanatical members of the Twin Horns Association.
However, they didn't expect [D]'s target to be this robe!
"Oh right, how long has boss and the others been in there?" another Spell Investigator asked.
"About 10 minutes."
"Sigh …"
About half an hour later, this group of people who went to the meeting returned to the office and assigned the tasks assigned by their superiors. However, because the attack date was tomorrow, in order to prevent any accidents from happening due to negligence, all the team members were asked to stay in the main hall to rest in shifts.
Although everyone complained about this, they knew it was their job. Therefore, they still allocated the time for their shifts and started to guard the main hall.
Perhaps it was out of kindness, or perhaps it was to wear down the spirit of the guards, the expected attack from Michirou Ashiya didn't happen at noon the next day.
"Sigh, so tiring," one of the team members complained.
Indeed, no matter who it was, they would feel tired after guarding under the summer sun for an entire morning.
However, such a good thing didn't happen to Yin-Yang School, which was also the target of the attack. Not long after the lunch break started, a large number of mechanical earth spiders appeared on the wall of Yin-Yang School and crawled down along the wall.
"It's a shikigami!" a girl shouted when she felt the light dimming and turned to look at the window.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang …"
The earth spider shikigami lying on the wall of Yin-Yang School used their powerful front legs to chisel at the glass under them, but they were immediately blocked by the barrier outside Yin-Yang School, and a series of muffled sounds were heard.
"Ah!" Although they were trainee Yin-Yang Masters, in the end, they were still inexperienced students, so they couldn't feel the pressure. They immediately screamed and hurriedly pulled out their chairs and left, moving closer to the middle of the dining hall.
Of course, as trainee Yin-Yang Masters, they subconsciously pulled out the talismans on their bodies.
"The barrier of Yin-Yang School has already been activated, if we attack from the inside now, it will only damage the barrier!" A petite, fair-skinned student with long dark purple hair, who looked more like a girl than a boy, but was wearing a black Yin-Yang School uniform loudly reminded.
"Can everyone hear that? An unknown Yin-Yang Master is attacking Yin-Yang School! " Just when the students of Yin-Yang School didn't know what to do, several teachers rushed into the dining hall and said to everyone.
"Immediately take shelter! All the students quickly moved to the practice field. Don't worry, the barrier is protecting Yin-Yang School! Everyone, stay calm, don't panic, and move in an orderly manner! "The teachers calmly instructed.
"Yomi, don't you need help?" In the group following the teachers' instructions, the kind-hearted Tsutomu Kagura looked at the panicked students around her and asked Yomi in a low voice.
"Don't worry, the barrier outside is very sturdy, as long as it isn't damaged from the inside, it won't be broken in a short period of time." Yomi also comforted her in a low voice, then raised his head and looked at the teachers who had calm expressions and powerful Spiritual Pressure, and continued, "Also, don't underestimate the teachers here, every one of them is even stronger than the combat personnel of the Environment Department, if we act rashly, we'll only bring trouble to ourselves."
"Yeah." Tsutomu Kagura looked around and softly replied.
"Eh?" At this moment, Yomi made a sound of surprise.
"What's the matter?" Tsutomu Kagura asked in confusion.
"Follow me." Yomi said in a low voice, then grabbed Tsutomu Kagura's hand, and quietly left the group without the teachers noticing, and moved to the other side.
Although she was confused, Tsutomu Kagura trusted Yomi completely, so she didn't delay and let Yomi drag her around.
Just like that, the group of three boys and three girls appeared in Tsutomu Kagura's sight.
"Suzuki-san?" Tsutomu Kagura subconsciously called out.
Hearing someone call her name, Daidai-ji Suzuki-San and the boys and girls around her all turned to look at Yomi and Tsutomu Kagura.
Seeing Yomi, Daidai-ji Suzuki-San couldn't help but frown.
It couldn't be helped, the first impression was too important, even though Yomi stopped following them after that time, and every time they met was a coincidence, Daidai-ji Suzuki-San was still very cautious and distrustful of her, so she never had a proper conversation with her. However, Daidai-ji Suzuki-San didn't have a bad impression of Tsutomu Kagura, she didn't dislike her, but she didn't like her either, just like how she treated her other classmates.
"They are …" A tall and thin brown-haired man with a small pentagram in the corner of his left eye asked in confusion.
"My classmates." Daidai-ji Suzuki-San said coldly.
"Why are you here?" Daidai-ji Suzuki-San questioned.
"We saw you suddenly leave the group, so we were curious, so we followed you." Yomi answered honestly.
