After that, the atmosphere between Rozen and the three girls, who were his Spirit-branded Retainers, became much better than before, and it was no longer so awkward.
Rozen returned to his normal state of mind and chatted a lot with the girls.
He chatted with Natsume about how much he missed her after being separated for a year and a half.
He chatted with Suzuka about her life and growth in the past year and a half.
He chatted with Kyoko about the arrangements for tomorrow's operation.
Under such circumstances, it was impossible for the atmosphere to continue being awkward.
Not to mention, Natsume and Kyoko seemed ready to bury the hatchet. They were no longer at odds with each other like before, and had reached a consensus that they wanted to properly assist Rozen as Spirit-branded Retainers.
In addition, Suzuka seemed indifferent. Although the three girls weren't on the same page, they had formed a common battlefront and had a common goal and goal.
The night passed in such a situation.
At the same time, the plan on the other side was also in full swing.
.....
Tokyo, Chiyoda-ku.
There was a shrine here.
It was a shrine with a door, a shrine hall, a stone statue of the Great God of Great Land, a statue of Shaoyan Ming, a monument to the Meiji Emperor, and a garden on top of the house.
The shrine was founded in the second year of Tenhei (730 AD). It was known as the Chief Guardian of Edo, and it was revered by the Edo shogunate and the civilians of Edo. As the chief priest of the shrine, Kanda Myōjin was the collective name of the three pillars of the gods, the Great God of Great Land, the Great God of Great Land, the Great God of Great Land, and the Great God of Peace.
This was the Kanda Myōjin Shrine, also known as the Kanda Shrine.
At this moment, countless evil spirits, demons, and ghosts lingered around the shrine, as if they were besieging the shrine. They kept rushing into the shrine, but were blocked by a transparent barrier. They could only leave ripple-like ripples and collision sounds on the barrier. They could not enter at all.
This was because Nightmare Officials wearing barrier vests had surrounded the entire shrine, forming a circle around it. They formed hand seals while chanting incantations neatly, causing talismans to dance in the air. They emitted a gentle light that shone on the transparent barrier, causing the barrier to shine brightly. Incantation ripples kept fluctuating, blocking the attacks of evil spirits and demons.
In addition, there were Search Officers patrolling the territory of the shrine.
The entire shrine seemed to have turned into an impregnable fortress, heavily guarded.
At this time, Senji Kurahashi walked out of a worship hall.
"Hu …"
The head of Yin Yang Hall, who has always been expressionless and impartial, couldn't help but exhale at this moment, and his eyes showed exhaustion.
There was nothing he could do about it.
"It shouldn't be easy to deal with the twelve Divine Generals, right?"
Saying this, Yaksha Maru appeared behind Kurahashi Genji.
Senji Kurahashi's face immediately tightened.
"Where's the princess?"
Without looking back, Senji Kurahashi asked directly.
"She has woken up." Yakamaru didn't waste any time and replied straightforwardly: "Although she was a little confused for a while, after all, the Divine Qi that flowed into her body was suppressed and even scattered by Qiu Konoha, but now she has basically recovered. It's just that she seems to be quite annoyed that she couldn't convince Qiu Konoha. If it weren't for me and Shikamaru, she would have lost control again."
"Is that so?" Senji Kurahashi nodded and said: "Try to comfort the princess, don't let her power get out of control again."
"That's a pity. Even if she lost control, I'm quite curious about the power of a god." Yakamaru shrugged, looked at Senji Kurahashi, and said with a smile: "How about you?"
"No problem." Senji Kurahashi said lightly: "Even if it's difficult to deal with them, especially since Amami and Otomo are still suspicious of me, in order to cope with the disaster that happened in Tokyo, they have agreed to guard here and use this place as a stronghold to fight against the Hundred Ghosts."
When they were in the worship hall, Senji Kurahashi was having a meeting with the twelve Divine Generals.
Since Kyoko could detect the abnormality of Yin Yang Hall's actions, how could the twelve Divine Generals not notice it?
Not to mention, Cizue Junfu, the independent Nightmare Officer who directly blew up the hotel after discovering Rozen's whereabouts and launched the first wave of arrest on Rozen, was very opposed to doing so at first, but Senji Kurahashi issued a desperate order, and he had no choice but to do so.
The rest of the twelve Divine Generals were also very dissatisfied with Senji Kurahashi's method of using Tokyo's Spirit Vein to set up a barrier. They thought it was too risky and dangerous, and Senji Kurahashi acted together with the Soma Clan, which made many people suspicious.
In order to appease these level one Onmyoji, Senji Kurahashi became so tired.
Of course, the main source of Senji Kurahashi's exhaustion was the battle today.
In the battle with Tamamo no Mae, Kurahashi Genji had exhausted a lot of his spiritual power. He almost didn't even have the strength to escape. Fortunately, his two protectors were able to escape. Otherwise, he would have fallen long ago.
However, Senji Kurahashi managed to appease the twelve Divine Generals and let them guard the Kanda Shrine.
It's just …
"I don't know how long we can last."
Senji Kurahashi's face was solemn.
"Yes." Yakamaru nodded without the slightest denial, and his eyes flashed with an unknown light. He sneered and said: "We can still hold on for now, mainly because the ones who came are some ordinary monsters. If the three great monsters came, I'm afraid this place would have already fallen."
"The real Night of Hundred Demons …" Senji Kurahashi said solemnly: "I didn't expect such a thing to happen. Qiu Guan, we really underestimated him."
"It would be great if he could stand on our side." Yakamaru's voice began to take on a fanatical tone as he said, "To be able to accomplish such a feat by allowing the Hundred Demons to reappear in the world, Qiu Kan's mastery of spells has already surpassed Abe no Seimei and Yūkō. I really want to have a good discussion with him and see how high he is now."
"Unfortunately, we are already enemies." Kurahashi Genji said coldly, "Perhaps he will lead the Hundred Demons to attack us in the next second. Before that happens, we must ensure that Taira no Shogun successfully descends. Otherwise, we won't have any chance of winning in this desperate situation."
"I know." Yakamaru said casually: "Fortunately, tomorrow is Jōsi."
Yakamaru performed Jōsi on Jōsi four years ago, but he failed, which led to the Jōsi Taira incident.
Spider Maru performed Jōsi two years ago, but he also failed, which led to the Jōsi Taira incident.
Now, Jōsi Taira will once again come.
That day was the day of the Jōsi ceremony.
For that day, the Kurahashi Clan and the Soma Clan have made sufficient preparations.
"We can perform Jōsi tomorrow."
Yakamaru's tone was full of fanaticism again.
"Tomorrow …"
Senji Kurahashi also murmured.
He knew that tomorrow would not be peaceful.
Fortunately, he was able to add two more cards to his side today.
One card was ready.
There was another card. Senji Kurahashi was about to find them.
"It all depends on tomorrow."
The night gradually passed.
Not long after, dawn came.
