I don't want to be a heroic spirit

"It's our first meeting. I'm very interested in you, so I came here in person... But, it seems you're not the real one either."

Chapter 547: You are such a tough guy!

"Oh my, this is truly... an Onmyoji-sama."

After seeing the Onmyoji boy, Ashiya Doman also showed an interested smile, his half-closed eyes opened a little, and a divine light burst out of his eyes.

"And, this feeling... is it that you're an Onmyoji who has achieved a false immortality through magic? Taishan Fujun Festival? You actually used that ritual in a place like this?"

As soon as Ashiya Doman said this, the smile on the Onmyoji boy's face disappeared. Although he smiled again soon, his eyes were less calm and more solemn.

"Even I didn't expect this... You figured it out right away? I never imagined such a talented Onmyoji would appear in later generations. I wish you were one of our family. I believe your talent would rival that of previous family heads."

The Onmyoji boy's tone was filled with justified arrogance, as if being the head of their family was the highest honor for all Onmyoji in the world.

"However, I've never heard of such a talented Onmyoji before. The only Onmyoji worth noting in this era is the little girl from Hanakaiin, but that's all. Although she possesses a certain level of talent, it's not easy to make that talent blossom in this era... She's nothing compared to you."

"Hahaha? You actually think so highly of me?"

"If the shikigami you placed in this city hadn't revealed its true form during the battle with the Hyakumonogatari Clan, even I wouldn't have noticed it... and after meeting them like this, I realize my previous evaluation was too low."

Although most of Ashiya Doman's Shikigami disguise themselves as passers-by, some do not, and act completely in the true appearance of Ashiya Doman. With so many identical people suddenly appearing in the city, the Onmyoji boy would naturally take a second look.

It was only after this careful look that the Onmyoji boy discovered...that these people were actually all Shikigami controlled by a certain Onmyoji.

This discovery surprised the Onmyoji boy. He was amazed by the terrifying number that could cover the entire city, the combat power displayed by each Shikigami, and the disguise that even he could hardly see through.

Such superb Shikigami manipulation skills reminded the Onmyoji boy of his previous generation family head, who was considered to be the strongest Shikigami user among all the family heads except the first generation.

When he found this place according to the connection between the Shikigami and their controllers, he discovered that... the one controlling these Shikigami was also a Shikigami. He then realized that he had underestimated the other party.

"Hmm... I think I understand what you mean. It's a shame, but I'm a bit busy right now, so I can only talk to you like this as a Shikigami... Besides, because of what you've done, this city is in dire straits. As you can see, I'm just a weak Onmyoji. What would I do if my real body was captured by a monster? Hehehe!"

"Haha! Funny, you're such a liar."

The Onmyoji boy narrowed his eyes and smiled brightly. "Even though you say that, your disdain and contempt for us are almost overflowing. It seems you are also a proud and arrogant person... But I understand. For people with talents like us, arrogance is a natural right given by God."

Before seeing that insurmountable peak, our first generation... the Onmyoji boy added this in his heart.

"After this conversation, I've come up with a question that I can't seem to answer. Could you please help me clear it up?"

"uh-huh?"

"Why...why on earth are you going against us?"

Both Ashiya Doman and the Onmyoji boy had smiles on their faces, but something was growing and spreading in the air between them.

"Hmm? Hmm... I don't understand what you mean."

Ashiya Doman tilted his head and said with a forced smile, "Could it be that I can't stand your evil deeds, and the suffering of the people, and I want to be a partner of justice for once?"

"Stop telling lies like this that you don't even believe, okay?"

The Onmyoji boy's narrow eyes opened a crack, revealing a cunning fox-like look. "You sneer at humans, sneer at monsters, sneer at the world... Such evil, such profound, such vast malice. How could you, with such a nature, act for such a ridiculous reason? Honestly, turning an entire city into hell is something you're far more suited to than us."

Yuan Chao, who had been standing behind the Onmyoji boy like a background board, suddenly felt a bone-chilling chill at this moment.

It was as if he had fallen into an ocean of pure malice, and in the deepest part of this ocean, an indescribable, inexplicable, and unlookable existence cast its gaze on him.

There are malicious whispers in my ears and bottomless darkness before my eyes.

“Humph, huh, huh, huh…hahahahahahaha!”

It started out as a low laugh, but later it became increasingly vicious, more arrogant, more sharp, and more vicious.

In the eyes of the two, Ashiya Doman's figure gradually became distorted, and malice overflowed from his body like dark mud, flowing and expanding under their feet.

"So you said it! So you said it! Then, let me commend you for your keen vision! Although I have never deliberately concealed this fact from the beginning to the end."

"You ask about my purpose? Is that even necessary? Isn't it obvious?"

The next moment, as if he had torn off all his disguises, Ashiya Doman revealed a smile that was more ferocious than a beast and more evil than a ghost. His trembling voice contained an obsession burning like a raging fire. Ashiya Doman called out the man's name.

"Abe Seimei——!"

As soon as this name appeared, the expressions of the Onmyoji boy and Yuanchao changed visibly.

Pointing at the two of them, Ashiya Doman spoke hoarsely, the endless malice in his voice seemed to form an extremely vicious curse.

"You two—are you Qingming's lackeys!"

"Qingming——! Qingming——! Qingming——!"

"In this world, there is only him...only him! He can never be forgiven!"

At this moment, Ashiya Doman was like the god of evil walking on earth. The surging malice was like ink dripping into a pool, gradually dyeing the whole world into an ominous black.

Yuanchao and the Onmyoji boy were almost drowned by the surging malice just by standing in front of Ashiya Doman.

"If Qingming's wish is to let light illuminate this earth, then this poor monk will use malice to blacken the sun! If Qingming's wish is to bring true order to this world, then this poor monk will plunge this world into eternal chaos and strife!"

"Qingming's ideals, Qingming's long-cherished wishes, Qingming's efforts... all of them! I will crush them! Anything that can make Qingming unhappy is my goal! I hope to make Qingming lose everything and lie prone on the ground like a stray dog ​​rummaging through garbage!"

"Just thinking about that scene, just thinking about Qingming lying on the ground helplessly after losing everything, staring at me with hatred in his eyes, I... I just..."

While speaking in a high-pitched voice, Ashiya Doman suddenly stabbed his sharp nails into his temple. His index and middle fingers stirred frantically, and a large amount of blood splattered. Ashiya Doman's expression became even more crazy.

"I'm so high! Haha ...!"

The moment before, he was emitting boundless malice, as if he wanted to turn the whole world into hell. However, the next moment, Ashiya Michimitsu's temperament became harmless, and his face was covered with a smile that could be described as kind.

"This is my purpose. How is it? Have I been able to help you? Yuanchao, and... Qingming's offspring."

"..."

His eyes were fixed on Ashiya Doman, not daring to look away. The smile on the Onmyoji boy's face had completely disappeared, and even his clothes were soaked with cold sweat. He looked like he had just been fished out of the water.

The boy in Onmyoji is named Abe Ariyuki, the fourth generation head of the Gomonin family, while Abe Haruaki is the first generation, which means he is the great-grandson of Abe Haruaki.

The current Gomonin family is the former Abe family, but in order to escape the fate of the family "existing because of Abe Haruaki's wishes", the fifth-generation head of the family changed his surname to "Gomonin". After the failure, the completely frustrated fifth-generation head of the family also left the family and lived in seclusion.

Except for the fifth generation, all the successive heads of the Gomonin family regarded Abe Haruaki's wishes as everything. They extended their lives through the Taizan Fukun Festival and lived to the modern era just to welcome Abe Haruaki's resurrection, and dedicated everything, including their lives, to his ideals.

And now, Abe Ariyuki realized... that the person in front of him was a threat, an enemy.

He is an enemy that can threaten Abe Haruaki's ideals and must be eliminated.

But... as a human instinct, they resisted his orders and were unwilling to become an enemy of the person in front of them.

He had clearly sworn to Lord Qingming that he would sacrifice his humble life for his ideals...but at this moment, he was afraid.

In the face of that twisted and overwhelming malice, any intelligent being would inevitably feel fear. That terrifying feeling was like a cold current surging from the bottom of your heart, easily breaking down the defenses of reason. Screams echoed in your heart, and the unbearable whispers of the ancient gods constantly destroyed your last bit of clarity.

Hostility is a foolish act. It is a super-being beyond human cognition, a god of chaos that spreads madness, disorder and stupidity.

No one spoke. The suffocating silence was like a huge hand that tightly gripped the hearts of Abe Ariyuki and Yuanchao.

Until... a roar shattered the heavy silence.

"Yuan-Chao!"

As if draping the darkness over his body, a figure rushed up the tall building.

Nura Rikuo...but it was a little different from when he parted with Ashiya Michiman before.

Her black hair, like an ink painting, fluttered behind her head, with strange demonic patterns under her eyes, and her whole body was shrouded in a demonic aura as deep as the night.

At this moment, Nura Rikuo is truly worthy of the title of "Lord of Demons and Monsters".

After all, being strong is a matter of one version, but being handsome is a matter of a lifetime.

Rushing to the rooftop, Nura Rikuo landed gracefully, with the tip of his long sword wrapped in dark demonic energy pointing directly at Yuanchao.

"Nura Rikuo..."

Yuanchao turned his head to glance at the murderous Nura Rikuo and muttered to himself, "They've actually caught up with me?"

"I told you, Yuanchao."

Nura Rikuo roared in a deep voice, his demonic aura filled with murderous intent, "Having committed such an evil act on my territory, you have lost the right to greet the dawn!"

Yuanchao had not planned to meet Nura Rikuo so soon...but Ashiya Doman's actions seriously disrupted his plans.

Because of his trust in Abe Yuki, Yuanchao followed him to meet the shikigami who disrupted his plans... But they all underestimated this onmyoji who popped out from nowhere.

Abe Yuxing raised his hand and pointed at the air, and a seven-pointed star magic circle appeared out of thin air.

Immediately afterwards, the space around Abe Yuyuki and Yuanchao turned into mirrors, reflecting their figures.

They want to run!

"How can I do this... If I let you escape right under my nose, that damn fox Qingming will definitely make fun of me for the rest of my life with a smile as disgusting as a rotten pumpkin dropped on the ground!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the mirror space that enveloped Abe Youxing and the other person shattered into pieces.

"Puff——"

Abe Youxing's face turned as pale as paper, his legs went limp and he knelt on the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

This is the backlash reaction after the technique was violently cracked.

“How is it possible… I didn’t even understand what they did, and yet they managed to break my spell…”

Looking at Ashiya Doman, Abe Ariyuki seemed to see his ancestor for a moment... the world's most powerful onmyoji, Abe Haruaki.

It is also incredibly powerful.

Seeing Abe Youxing's reaction, Yuanchao realized that the other party could no longer take him away safely.

This mysterious Shikigami's attainments in Yin-Yang magic far exceeded their expectations.

But... the current situation cannot be called a desperate one.

"Although it was just a last resort... I never thought it would actually be used in the end."

"What are you planning to do now! Yuanchao!"

As if ignoring the distance, Nura Rikuo rushed in front of Yuanchao in an instant, and swung the long sword in his hand, slashing towards Yuanchao's neck like a brush splashing ink.

Seeing that Mo Hen was about to cut off Yuan Chao's neck, Yuan Chao said slowly.

"Are you sure you want half of Tokyo to be buried with me?"

"!!!"

The inky black sword hovered beside Yuan Chao's neck, just a hair's breadth away from cutting through his flesh.

If looks could kill, then Nura Rikuo could cut Yuanchao into pieces with just his eyes at this moment.

"What do you mean by that! Yuanchao!"

"That's what it means."

Yuanchao calmly gazed at Nura Rikuo, his eyes, as if painted on, devoid of any emotion. "Right now, your Nura group is also battling the monsters of our Hyaku Monogatari group, right? In fact, I've planted a 'bomb' inside every monster in the Hyaku Monogatari group. The stronger the monster's power, the more powerful the 'bomb' will be. If it explodes now, killing everyone is a bit unrealistic, but the casualties will definitely be huge. If we add in earthquakes, building collapses, and other subsequent disasters, nearly half of the people will die, right? The trigger for the explosion is my life."

"you……!"

"By the way, even if you kill the monsters, it's useless. The monster corpses can also be detonated. Unless you can completely dissipate all the monsters and not even leave ashes, but then you will spend more time and energy to eliminate the monsters. During this time you waste, more innocent people will be killed by us out of despair."

"So, what choice will you make? Nura Rikuo."

Chapter 548: The field unfolds.

Nura Rikuo almost bit his teeth to pieces, and the fire of anger burning in his eyes almost burned the man in front of him to ashes.

"Yuan-Chao! You bastard!"

"Your words only have so much power, Nura Rikuo. Make a decision quickly."

Yuanchao said calmly, "Are you going to let us go, or are you going to let half of the city's population go to hell with us?"

"Stop joking, Yuanchao!"

Although Nura Rikuo was angry, he hadn't lost his composure yet. "If I let you go, you will only cause greater chaos and casualties, at least no less than this time!"

"So, you're going to kill so many innocent people with your own hands?"

Yuan Chao unfolded the folding fan in his hand, revealing the word "Jian" on the fan. "Just as we predicted."

"Don't even think about imprisoning me. Once you've killed all the members of the Hyakumonogatari group, you only have ten minutes. If you still don't let us go, I will end my own life. Once the bomb explodes, I'm sure not only innocent humans will be killed, but even those fighting in your Nura group will suffer heavy casualties."
