Seiji slowly opened his eyes.
He felt that there was something new within his body, and he could borrow its power with a single thought.
It was as if he had an AI cheat code.
This was the power of a "bonded spirit."
The effects of a Spirit-branded Retainer's equipment would be even more … No, that was a game from his previous life, so there was no need to mix it up.
"Haruta-kun, how is it?" Summer Night asked.
"Not bad." Seiji smiled at her.
"I feel like I've become stronger … Although it's not my own power, it's quite wondrous to be able to use it as I please."
"This … isn't just wondrous." Summer Night sighed as she looked at him.
"Eh?" Seiji blinked in surprise. "Is there something wrong with that?"
"Didn't you notice? There's something special about your bonded spirit. "
"Special …" Seiji mulled it over.
"I heard his voice … but spirits are all capable of speech, right? He said his name was … "
'Wait a moment. '
He noticed that something was wrong.
"My bonded spirit … isn't a demon?"
"Of course I'm not a demon." A voice spoke up in his mind. "Seiji -sama, please don't confuse this humble one with those things."
"Er, sorry." Seiji reflexively apologized. "What I meant was …"
'Weren't bonded spirits all demons and demons? '
He looked towards the Grand Mistress.
Summer Night had a serious expression on her face.
"Your bonded spirit is a heroic spirit, Haruta-kun."
Seiji was rendered speechless.
'Heroic spirit? '
'Hey hey, what's going on now!? '
Seiji revealed a strange expression.
Summer Night thought that his expression was one of confusion, so she explained.
"So-called heroic spirits refer to heroes that exist in history or legends. They're worshipped by people for a long time and become powerful spirits.
"Compared to demons and demons, heroic spirits not only have more positive powers, they're also more compatible with humans, and they're also at a higher level. That's why heroic spirits are the best bonded spirits."
"However, summoning a heroic spirit as a bonded spirit is incredibly difficult. There are high requirements for both the Spiritual Ability user and the Yin Yang Master responsible for summoning the heroic spirit. Not only that, you also have to use precious items related to the heroic spirit … and even if you make the best preparations, there's no guarantee of success."
"That's why heroic spirits have always been viewed as rare and difficult to obtain, and now you …"
The Grand Mistress didn't continue.
But the meaning was clear.
The style was f * cking mixed up again! Seiji cursed in his heart.
A Heroic Spirit actually became an SSR for a Onmyoji?
Wasn't the span of this series a little too big?!
Ahem, calm down.
Come to think of it, weren't most demons and ghosts originally human beings?
If demons were the condensation of negative human emotions, then it was only natural for heroic spirits to be the condensation of positive emotions.
'That's right, that's what I should think!'
Actually, he felt that it was strange because of his memories from his previous life. As long as he tossed those memories aside and simply understood it as him drawing an SSR … whoops, having a miraculous encounter, that would be enough!
Seiji forced himself to calm down.
'President, you mean that I unexpectedly obtained an incredible bonded spirit … then what am I now? What level is my Spirit-branded Retainer? '
Summer Night blinked, and her pupils changed to reveal the Manhana Sharingan state once again.
'I should ask her what this technique is called, and learn it if possible.' Seiji thought to himself.
Every Naruto reader had a dream of writing O-eyes!
"Your Spirit-branded Retainer's level … is low-level mid-level." Summer Night came to this conclusion after observing him.
"Like Shuho-san?" Seiji looked towards the red-haired girl who was silently observing him.
He recalled that this girl and Rona were both low-level mid-level Spirit-branded Retainers.
"Yes, that's quite amazing."
"Your talent is still quite low, and I didn't give you much Spiritual Power to assist you, but you were still able to reach Hitaka and Rona's level in such a short time. It's obvious how powerful your heroic spirit is."
"But I can see that your heroic spirit … doesn't seem to be complete, or perhaps it's currently in a weakened state."
"This Yin Yang Master-sama is correct; I am indeed in a weakened state, as if I'm missing many things. I can't even remember my own name." Seiji's voice spoke up in his mind again.
"He said that you're right; he's in a weakened state, and he can't even remember his own name. He only remembers that someone called him Light-chan, and told me to call him that as well. "
"Light-chan … a heroic spirit with the word 'Light' in its name? Or is it a nickname? "Summer Night had a pensive expression.
"He still remembers that he's looking for an evil demon … an evil demon that loves to harm young girls," Seiji told her.
"An evil demon that loves to harm young girls … with the word 'Light' in its name … could it be!?" Summer Night's eyes widened in surprise.
Could it be that person?
Were there any other possibilities?
For example, one of that person's subordinates also had the word 'Light' in his name.
But even this subordinate's rank was quite high! And if it really was that person himself, then it really was …
Summer Night originally felt like she had randomly won a grand prize, but now she realized that this wasn't just a grand prize; it might even be the top prize!
Heavens, how could something like this happen!?
She was clearly just signing a temporary Spirit-branded Retainer contract and summoning a spirit at the lowest cost. Normally speaking, it should have been a normal demon.
But it was a heroic spirit!
Not only that, it was a powerful existence even among heroic spirits!!
This was no longer a pleasant surprise; it was a complete shock! It was as if someone had gone to a restaurant to ask for a waiter, only to have a national idol come out and serve them the menu. It was so shocking!!
Summer Night was currently in such a state of shock … no, she was already in a state of shock.
This situation was truly frightening. She didn't understand why it was like this at all, and it was quite scary.
"President, what's the matter?" Seiji's voice spoke up.
Summer Night instantly came back to her senses.
'Right, it's Haruta-kun … Haruta Seiji!'
No matter how she thought about it, the problem couldn't possibly be with her, so it could only be him.
He was a youth who had created miracles … and more than once.
It was because he was the vessel that this heroic spirit was summoned … it had to be!
Summer Night's intuition told her this.
Although she was completely baffled and couldn't understand what was going on, she was certain that this heroic spirit was summoned precisely because of him.
Even if it was only in an incomplete state, it was still …
'By the way, this heroic spirit was from the same generation as his ancestor — the strongest of them all — and it's said that they worked together …'
All sorts of thoughts flashed through the Grand Mistress's mind.
"Haruta-kun …" she finally spoke up.
"I have a guess as to the identity of this heroic spirit of yours."
"Oh? Who is it? "Seiji was quite curious about it.
"Although I don't dare to be one hundred percent certain, I feel that I'm eighty to ninety percent certain … If his identity really is as I think, then this isn't something that can just be described as astonishing."
This was like a bolt from the blue.
"In fact, it's even worth it for me to use this as a hypothesis and prepare a new battle plan." Summer Night looked directly at Seiji's face as she spoke in a serious tone.
"This battle plan will have you as the main fighting force! In other words, you'll become our ace. "
"What?" Seiji was stunned.
Ace? 'Hey, hey, I'm supposed to be a bystander!'
"I know that I'm making things difficult for you, but your power … your heroic spirit is so powerful that it's worth me doing this!"
"Of course, the decision is in your hands. If you're willing to accept, I'll prepare this battle plan. If not, then just pretend I never said anything. "
'What do you think?' Summer Night asked with her eyes.
Just as Seiji didn't know how to respond, Light-chan's voice spoke up in his mind again.
