However, what puzzled her was that the other party could actually control a vengeful spirit of such strength.

"It's just collecting the remaining resentment."

With a calm expression, Yusegawa Izumi waved her hand, and with a surge of spiritual energy, the black resentment vanished in the blink of an eye, like ice melting and snow melting away.

"saved!"

Mrs. Iino, who were embracing each other, looked at each other with a confused expression.

"That's it!?"

Takeda Saegusa was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped and his hand trembled.

It's as simple as swatting a fly.

That's way too strong!

Even she was so shocked, let alone the other two ordinary people, who all looked at her with admiration.

"Senior, you are so awesome!"

"Hasegawa-kun, you're amazing!"

To receive such praise from both mother and daughter is probably the proudest moment for a man.

Chapter 12 The Ghost Tamer.

An abandoned old house in Tokyo.

A group of members from the Supernatural Countermeasures Bureau are eliminating an evil spirit that is entrenched here.

The aura emanating from the evil spirit affected the surrounding environment, pulling everyone into its ghostly realm.

The barrier created in this way is not a true domain, so it does not have such terrifying power.

"Here we go again, with this same trick!"

"We suffered a lot in this area a few months ago, but things are different now!"

"Izumo, it's your turn to make a move."

Those present also appeared completely unconcerned.

The woman they called 'Izumo' had sharp features and a slightly gloomy expression, with black hair draped over her shoulders like seaweed.

"Don't give orders to people like that!"

Izumo Kiyokawa coldly swept her gaze over the crowd, and her chilling aura made the team members' expressions turn somewhat unpleasant, yet no one dared to refute her.

Although the other party is a death row inmate who came to atone for his crimes, he is also a psychic. As long as the higher-ups agree, he may become their superior in the future.

The two sides are not on the same level at all.

"Stop talking nonsense and get to work, or I'll... kill you."

Just then, a long knife was suddenly pressed against her throat, its cold edge seeming ready to sever her blood vessels at any moment.

"Miss Isayama, don't joke like that. If I died, wouldn't you have a hard time explaining it to your superiors?"

With an air of complete nonchalance, Izumo Kiyokawa smiled with narrowed eyes.

"Just say you sacrificed yourself during the mission, right?"

Although Isayama Yomi had a cold look in his eyes, he still put his sword away.

Once people have ties to others, they easily lose control of their own lives.

She is not alone; she also carries the hopes of the Isayama family on her shoulders, and cannot act arbitrarily.

So even if you hate this vicious woman, you still have to follow the rules.

"How terrible~ Miss Isayama is so heartless. I have been so law-abiding, yet you still hate me so much. It's really disheartening."

Izumo Kiyokawa made a few sarcastic remarks, then turned away with a livid expression, but she could only swallow her anger and begin to use her abilities to break the deadlock.

She uttered some incomprehensible words, and a gust of cold wind suddenly swept through the ghost realm. Several evil spirits, whose ghostly aura was slightly weaker, suddenly appeared and let out a ghostly howl. Then, the terrifying ghost realm was simply disintegrated.

The evil spirit, which was hiding in the corner preparing to launch a sneak attack, suddenly froze in place, as if in a daze.

It probably never imagined that its own ghost realm would be destroyed by its own kind.

Then, a dazzling flash of light appeared in its field of vision.

Isayama Yomi drew his sword and slashed, merging the magic of the treasured sword Lion King with his own swordsmanship to form a crimson lotus blade.

After losing their greatest reliance, the battle between humans and evil spirits became one-sided.

Under the brutal onslaught of blades and flames, the evil spirit's ghostly aura and desires were completely incinerated, leaving only a few insignificant remnants, still steaming.

Unseen, an invisible ghostly hand reached out, grabbed and absorbed the residue, and collected the remaining ghostly energy.

"What have you been doing behind my back?"

As Izayama Yomi swiftly sheathed his sword, his brow furrowed, and he turned to question her.

“Oh, Ms. Isayama, as a combatant, isn’t it only natural that I should receive the rewards I deserve for my efforts? If I can become stronger, your team will be able to suffer fewer casualties when facing stronger enemies, won’t it?”

The woman who was caught doing something wrong didn't seem to care at all, and just smiled and said...

This reason is barely acceptable.

Considering the safety of the team members, Isayama Yomi temporarily believed her statement.

After all, the squad's casualty rate has dropped significantly during this period, and this guy has put in a lot of effort.

"Ok?"

Just then, Izumo Kiyokawa, who was smiling, suddenly froze, and turned around with a gloomy expression.

'Who's ruining my plans? Is it that old hag again?!'

'Looks like I'll have to secretly find an opportunity to strike again!'

This time, I won't give you another chance... even if it means taking on more punishment.

Through this period of probing, she had come to understand the tolerance those people had for superhumans, and the murderous intent hidden in her heart could no longer be suppressed.

……

In the innermost bedroom of the Iino family home.

"Ah~ I feel like I slept so soundly! I haven't felt this relaxed in a long time... Huh?"

Iino Yuto, who was lying on the bed, opened his eyes, straightened up, and was stretching when he suddenly glanced around and found that there were four people standing in the room. He was immediately embarrassed.

"Cough cough cough..."

Under the watchful eyes of several people, he silently put his hand back, then tugged at a non-existent collar, feigning an air of authority.

Why is everyone here?

"Honey, you're finally all better."

"Dad, it was the senior who saved you!"

Both Iino and her daughter rushed over, their eyes brimming with tears.

"I see……"

With their explanation, Yuto understood what had happened.

He then stood up, walked over to the boy, and said sincerely as he reached out his hand, "Thank you so much, Hasegawa-kun! Otherwise, I would have been dead this time."

"nothing."

Izumi Hasegawa still shook hands with him.

Judging from his deeds, this judge could be considered a righteous person, and it can be said that he was not destined to die.

"And Grandma Sanzhi, it was because of the prayer beads you gave me that I was able to persevere."

Seeing the boy's indifference, Yuto didn't press the matter and turned to express his gratitude in return.

"It's just a matter of paying money and receiving goods in exchange. You're lucky to have a savior. Otherwise, I would have had to watch you die."

Takeda Saegusa directly absolved himself of responsibility.

"In short, thank you both. If there's anything I can help with in the future, please feel free to ask, as long as it doesn't violate my professional ethics."

Yu-Dou smiled inwardly, then bowed solemnly to the two of them again.

……

Ten minutes later, the three arrived at the courtyard.

"Alright, I've saved your father, it's time for me to leave."

Izumi Hasegawa said to the girl in front of her.

"S-senpai... what if that guy takes the opportunity to launch a sneak attack..."

Iino Miko's expression still showed a hint of fear.

"Don't worry, she's already lost her chance, because..."

Although Izumi Hasegawa's voice was soft, it gave people an undeniable feeling, as if she were stating a pre-written ending.

"I'm going to find her now."

Chapter 13 You only have one chance.

The girl's eyes suddenly brightened and began to sparkle.

She finally understood why so many girls were surrounding her senior...

This is just too reassuring!

The prince charming she had always dreamed of had, in that instant, transformed into a handsome and dashing young man…

at this time.

Suddenly, the senior reached out and hooked her chin with his finger, leaned closer, and said in a domineering tone.

"Miko, you're so cute, I want to eat you right now."

……

"Everyone's gone, what are you still doing standing at the door, Miko?"

"Ugh!"

Suddenly, her mother's voice rang out from behind, startling Iino Miko from her reverie.

'I actually...'

She covered her cheeks with both hands and found them burning hot; she could easily imagine how red her face must have been.

"No, no, I need to watch less of that kind of work in the future! It's too offensive to my senior."

Feeling ashamed, the girl quickly shook her head, banishing those wild fantasies from her mind, and ran back into the house.

Mrs. Iino looked at her daughter, who seemed to be in the throes of first love, and shook her head with a light laugh.

"What a youth."

"It's a pity that you don't have that kind of luck, Miko... But experiencing heartbreak is also a good experience."

……

A boy and an old man walk on a road dappled with sunlight.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Hasegawa, this old lady was a little slow."

Takeda Saegusa looked apologetic.

"It's okay, we can save some time later."

"Izumi Hasegawa said lazily."

"She's really quite composed..."
