A crossover anime! The life of a hero!

The mere plane's distance was like the difference between the mortal world and the other side. To be honest, he really couldn't understand what the other party had gone through to become like this! Or who would have the time to create a useless "shikigami"?

Then let's turn our attention back to Hoshino Gokawa.

"Hmm... never mind, I'll just go for a walk."

After observing the excitement of the "venue" for a while, Hoshino Gokawa finally couldn't resist the urge to join in the fun, so he went along as well.

On the island of revelry-------------------------------

"Ha! Ha! Ha! This year's Fire Festival is more lively than ever before!"

As the flame spirits continued to drift towards them, a yokai sitting at the long table, who appeared to be of high status, couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Yes! Yes! There are indeed more Flame Essences born this year than in previous years!"

Another monster sitting about two meters away from him on the right couldn't help but praise him.

"Um……"

The man sitting in the main seat, whose body was also on fire, seemed quite pleased with their praise, and nodded in agreement.

But just then, they noticed that there was an extra "person" on the tablecloth where the little monsters were having a meal.

No! It's not that they noticed it!

It should be said that the other party made me notice it, and that's why I noticed it.

"!!!!!!"

Because they simply couldn't tell whether it was a monster or not at first glance!

It has no physical form! But you can still feel how out of place the space there is with its surroundings!

Especially after a type of food mysteriously floated up and was eaten in that area, their suspicions were further confirmed.

The little monsters sitting next to him hesitated to eat any longer, unsure of what this "master" was there for.

That's right! It's "adult"!

In the little monster's mind, anything that is incomprehensible can be addressed as "Master," because the power the other party possesses is beyond their imagination.

"Bah... ahh..."

Meanwhile, Hoshino Gokawa, who was eating the food that the yokai had placed there, couldn't help but sigh in his heart, marveling at how these yokai's years of culinary skills had not been for nothing.

After all, most things in this world can be accumulated over time, so even if you have little talent, you can still reach a remarkable level over time.

Just like the culinary skills these monsters are displaying right now, almost every one of them is comparable to the last seat of the Totsuki Academy's Elite Ten.

"My friend over there, if you don't mind, please come over here. You can enjoy your meal more here."

Seeing the little monsters who dared not eat for a moment because of the other party, the one on the main seat slowly extended his left hand and extended an invitation to that indescribable space.

Upon hearing his gesture, the servants, understanding his meaning, quickly stepped forward and arranged a long table on his left, just three steps away from their master.

That's quite a show of respect!

After all, sitting has always been the most honored position, and this position was even closer to the host than the long tables that were originally placed on the left and right.

And as if they had heard his words, the other person looked up?

Since no shape could be seen, the owner was unsure whether the other party had actually raised its head.

However, there was one thing he was certain of: the other party was definitely looking over!

"..."

Unfortunately, the other party doesn't seem to have given any response.

And just as the owner was pondering what to say next...

The frame rate dropped!

"!!!!!!"

No one had any idea what had just happened! And by the time they realized what was happening, the other person was already there!

That spot, which was just placed closest to the main seat!

"!!!!!!"

Although the other guests didn't say anything on the surface, their nervousness had reached its peak.

Because the strength of this suddenly appearing guest is truly unfathomable!

Without the slightest fluctuation of demonic energy, the opponent just appeared there so suddenly; how could they possibly remain calm?

Of course, the most important thing is that the other party hasn't said a word so far, because words best represent stance and attitude.

"Bah... ahh..."

Fortunately, although there were no words, they knew they could breathe a sigh of relief from the other person's act of eating.

This is because it means that the other party is a guest, not an enemy; otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to eat with them so calmly.

"Ha! Ha! Ha! Good! Let's raise the atmosphere even higher, guys!"

The venue owner, who also understood this meaning, raised his large wrist and shouted to the monster minions below the stage.

"Oh!" The monster minions responded in kind.

Chapter 85 Origin

"The Fire Festival is our annual festival! It lasts for seven days each time! During these seven days, Fire Spirits, those little creatures, will gradually drift from their respective regions to this island with the divine stone! They will perform rituals to purify all the impurities in the vicinity!"

The person sitting in the main seat suddenly began to talk about the origin of the festival. Although he was not sure if the other person could understand, he still explained it to him in detail.

Even as he was speaking, some of the fiery essence floated onto his hand and fluttered around a few times.

"I see……"

Hoshino Gokawa, upon hearing the other party's explanation, suddenly realized why the fire spirits had been circling around that large rock – they were purifying all the negative energy around it.

He also estimated that this was the reason why Okinawa and the city at its center did not give birth to monsters as terrifying and disgusting as those in Tokyo. In a sense, this was the good fortune of the people living in this area, who did not have to worry about being persecuted by supernatural forces.

"..."

The owner, who had been observing the space without giving any feedback, wasn't angry and continued talking about history and the situation here, which was quite magnanimous in a way.

"The origin of the divine stone is said to be that it fell from the sky onto this small island more than a thousand years ago! At that time, the monsters and humans in the vicinity were still fighting each other!"

But the arrival of the divine stone changed everything that day! At that time, a series of incomprehensible symbols appeared around the divine stone!

Then... everything changed!

The filth began to disappear, the earth began to revive, the rice began to ripen, and humans and monsters began to live in harmony.

Through the owner's explanation, Hoshino Gokawa roughly understood the sacredness of this thing in the hearts of local monsters and people.

Didn't you see that this big rock even has its own special day?

For some reason, when Hoshino Gokawa heard that the large rock came from outer space, he suddenly had a strange sense of déjà vu.

"Coming from outer space and containing mysterious symbols, could it be..."

With a certain doubt in his heart, Hoshino Gokawa activated his very convenient spatial perception the next moment.

Then he saw it! He saw it!

Inside the divine stone, some unknown mechanical parts were seen operating.

"!!!"

However, Hoshino Gokawa, with his existing scientific knowledge, did not understand the underlying principles. Although he had a strong learning ability, he was not yet at the point where he could easily comprehend alien technology.

"..."

The host of the event, who noticed that the gaze on him had disappeared, could roughly tell where the other person's gaze had moved to.

It was obvious that the other party was attracted by the divine stone he mentioned and looked towards the altar surrounded by clusters of fiery essence.

However, limited by his own strength, he did not know what the internal structure of that divine stone was like.

After watching for a while, Hoshino Gokawa turned his gaze away and continued to eat.

He did touch the wine on the table, but not much. After all, Hoshino Gokawa didn't really like wine, because drinking can lead to trouble.

Even if alcohol doesn't affect him now, he still doesn't like it! He just doesn't like it!

After eating for a while longer and feeling that he had eaten enough, Hoshino Gokawa decided to slip away. If he were still in high school, he wouldn't mind showing part of his body and talking to the other person.

Unfortunately, he is still a teenager, so he doesn't really want to show off his physique.

Of course, Hoshino Gokawa understood the principle of not eating for free, so before leaving, he gave a small gift to the master whose body was covered in flames.

Since it's a fire-attribute monster, we should naturally give it something suitable.

For example...

Extract a sliver of surface energy from the real sun!

Although it was only a tiny bit, that tiny bit was enough to instantly kill 99% of the monsters in the world.

Who can withstand a temperature of 6,000 degrees Celsius?

"!!!!!!"

They were all terrified when they saw a vortex emerging from the other person's body, followed by a wisp of heat flowing out from around him.

Because they believed that this temperature would absolutely melt them! Even the fire-elemental venue owner couldn't withstand it.

Of course, Hoshino Gokawa's purpose was not to kill them, so the heat disappeared before it even reached him.

Then a crystal about the size of a five-cent coin appeared in front of Hoshino Gokawa, and then slowly floated toward the table of the host of the venue.

"??!!!"

Looking at the rather small crystal on the table, the host of the venue couldn't help but turn his head in surprise to look at the incongruous space on the left, only to find that the sense of incongruity had disappeared at some point.

It's obvious the other party has left! And the things on the table are probably the gifts they gave as a greeting!

only……

Isn't this a bit too outrageous?!

On the other side-----------------------------------

"thump!"

Hoshino Gokawa lay down in his hotel room in a flash, unconsciously crossing his legs as he picked his teeth.

Although the night is still long and there's plenty of time to eat, he's not going there expecting a buffet, so he'll just eat until he's had enough of the food.

However, the discovery of the divine stone and the origin of the Fire Festival was an unexpected bonus. To be honest, Hoshino Gokawa really didn't expect that the strange celestial stone was actually a technological product from outer space.

Of course, this has nothing to do with him anymore. Although he plans to collect some things in the future, Hoshino Gokawa does not want to collect this big rock, because strictly speaking, it now belongs to everyone in the surrounding area.

Unless its owner comes and takes it away one day, this thing will probably stay there for the rest of its life.

However, there is a prerequisite! That is, we must ensure that no other ambitious people have their eyes on the divine stone, after all, such a magical thing will naturally attract people who want to get their hands on it.

However, given the current strength of the local monsters, unless something far beyond their level intervenes, they can generally be well protected.

Because the combined power of those fiery essences alone could completely level the surface of Okinawa Island where he was currently located.

and so……

"Ah."

Just as Hoshino Gokawa was lost in thought, he suddenly smelled a very unpleasant metallic odor wafting in from outside the window.

It was almost exactly the same as the black gas we caught this afternoon, and even a little more disgusting.

"Are they trying to cause trouble...?"

Chapter Eighty-Six: Conspiracy

Following the foul smell, Hoshino Gokawa saw it! He saw something beneath the sea surface that seemed about to rise to the surface!

"This really never stops..."

As he watched something about to surface, Hoshino Gosaka couldn't help but feel a headache coming on, wondering why strange things always seemed to happen whenever he went out.

"Could it be that I also have a troublesome personality?"
