What era is it? Why are people still writing traditional diaries?

"When tourists see what's happening in Beika Town, they'll either choose to take a detour or simply clear out some of the ignorant vengeful spirits..."

"But this is the first time such a large-scale cleanup has happened."

The psychic frowned as he recounted his findings: "Thirty percent of the vengeful spirits in Beika Town were dispelled, while sixty percent sustained injuries of varying severity. The remaining ten percent, along with a small portion of the injured sixty percent, instinctively fled Beika Town, daring not to return."

"These vengeful spirits are fine in Beika Town, but they can easily become a real threat if they leave Beika Town. If they are unwilling to return to Beika Town, we must completely exterminate them for safety reasons."

"A powerful exorcist..." Nanami Kento naturally knew how many vengeful spirits gathered in Beika Town.

Although there are no special-grade vengeful spirits, there are still quite a few vengeful spirits that are classified as level one or two.

Not to mention asking him to handle it, even if that guy Gojo Satoru were to handle it, it would probably take an entire night.

What’s more important is that there are so many vengeful spirits here that it’s impossible to kill them all.

After we kill them today, a new batch will appear in two days.

But even now, Beika Town is still filled with resentment, but more than 70% of the area is clean and there is no resentful spirit to be seen. Those resentful spirits that escaped don’t even dare to go back.

Such a "strong man with cruel means and unknown purpose" came to Tokyo, and no one knows what his purpose is.

Chapter 127: The Otherworld is a Pile of Shit

Kento Nanami's job tonight was simple: to assist the psychic in dealing with the escaped vengeful spirits and to confirm the current situation of Beika Town.

However, after seeing that the psychic was not under much pressure, he decisively chose to slack off.

While casually using his magical powers to dispel those weak evil spirits, he also asked the psychics who were also sent out to work overtime about the salary and benefits at the Shinto side.

After all, the top brass at the Jujutsu Headquarters is a bunch of shit, and he also wants to see what the current situation is like at Shinto, the largest supernatural power in Japan, to see if it's also a bunch of shit.

The mysterious period of decline that began in the mid-19th century and lasted almost throughout the entire 20th century caused the inheritance of many supernatural forces to disappear during this century.

The confidentiality regulations that required one to hide oneself and not display extraordinary powers in front of ordinary people were also gradually established at that time.

This is actually the compromise and cooperation of the weakened inner world to the outer world, showing that it will not violate the rules of the new era just to gain a place.

The final result was that over the past few hundred years, a considerable number of supernatural forces were incorporated and managed, such as Shinto and Zen Buddhism, as well as the subsequent Jujutsu Headquarters and some Onmyoji families.

It was not until the end of the century that the downward trend finally stopped, and it has gradually and mysteriously recovered since the 21st century.

What followed was the desires and ambitions of various forces that began to expand after they realized that their strength was beginning to recover.

Compete with each other for resources and redistribute the territory.

Recalling the years when he first became a sorcerer and the dirty things he was forced to participate in, Nanami Kento couldn't help but feel a little nauseous.

He gave up his identity as a sorcerer and chose to become an office worker.

In addition to realizing that he is far from being a true genius, he also doesn't want to get involved in the messy affairs of the top management.

It wasn't until recent years that the frequency of those paranormal events increased.

Only then did the top leaders of the country and those forces realize it.

It is not just the high-end combat power of their respective forces that has revived. Creations such as vengeful spirits, curses, and monsters have also spanned a hundred years and ushered in their own active period of revival.

It is precisely because of these external threats that those forces have engaged in fewer open struggles in recent years.

After several years of experience in the workplace, Nanami Ken has matured a lot and has a clearer understanding of life, so he chooses to become a sorcerer again.

After hearing about the treatment of these psychics, Nanami Kento couldn't help but curse the corrupt senior sorcerers.

Look at those psychics and Zen monks. They seized the opportunity to tie themselves to Japan during the mysterious decline of the last century. Not only did the two forces occupy more than 70% of Japan's land veins, they also made a lot of money in the surface world.

He even took advantage of the fact that other forces were unable to absorb more talents and relied on his own capital to recruit a large number of talented mortals.

The world of sorcery is stuck in its old ways.

When they could no longer hold on, they established the Spell Headquarters, and relied on the Tokyo Spell High School to cultivate a group of top fighters and backbones in the spell world in the past half century, which gave them a lot of say in Tokyo.

After all, the other world is ruled by strength.

But compared with the accumulation of Shinto and Zen Buddhism, their sorcerers have fallen far behind in the past hundred years.

As a first-level sorcerer who was born with innate spells, his daily welfare benefits were actually on the same level as those of the psychics who were weaker than him.

It serves you right that it has become increasingly difficult to recruit students for the Curse Arts College in recent years.

If he hadn't been born with the technique, and if he hadn't met the sorcerer first without knowing anything, he would have become a psychic.

But he continued to ask a few more questions.

After learning that these psychics worked almost all year round and had to work overtime every few days to deal with the increasingly frequent supernatural events, and that they did not receive overtime pay, he immediately joined these psychics in cursing Shintoism, which was in a slightly better situation but also contained garbage.

But if you think about it carefully, it’s actually normal.

After all, the values ​​of the surface world and the inner world are inherently different. Making those old antiques understand the concept of overtime pay is a hundred times more difficult than erasing a special-grade curse spirit.

As expected, in this era of mysterious revival, the entire other world is a mess, and no matter where you go, you can't escape the fate of being exploited.

After confirming this fact, Nanami Kento sighed and waved to the psychics.

"I'll leave this to you. I'm going to take a look around inside Beika Town and check out the situation. I'll also bring you some coffee later."

When first entering Beika Town, some people may feel a little uncomfortable because of the overly strong resentment and turbid spiritual power.

It's probably like entering a bathroom that someone else has used.

It felt pungent when I first entered, but I seemed to get used to it after staying for a while.

But if you really live here and breathe deeply, you will still feel sick, and you won’t like to come here for no reason.

That's about the extent.

It took Nanami Kento a few minutes to initially adapt to the spiritual power here.

"There are some changes compared to the rumors," Nanami Kento judged in his mind.

After all, when he occasionally talked about Beika Town with other people in the past, those people described it in a more exaggerated way than they do now.

For example, in Beika Town, although the spiritual power reaction is much more active than outside, absorbing the spiritual power there will also pollute oneself. After going out, it will take several weeks to deal with the polluted spiritual power.

But Nanami Kento, who felt that he was already living in a cesspool, decided to try it himself.

It is true that these spiritual powers are not easy to use, but they are not to the point of serious pollution.

"It's true that people just follow the crowd, saying that Beika Town is a garbage dump, but I don't think it's as bad as the rumors say," Nanami Kento made his own evaluation after carefully tasting it.

Afterwards, he went to those places where it was generally recognized that there were the most vengeful spirits.

Hospitals, primary schools, and middle schools.

Although vengeful spirits can indeed be seen in these places, and there are quite a few of them, they are basically ordinary vengeful spirits without intelligence, and no high-level vengeful spirits have been seen.

According to the psychic, the most serious casualties occurred among the intelligent high-level vengeful spirits in Beika Town.

After feeling the threat from the exorcist, they should have gathered together and wanted to launch a counterattack against the mysterious exorcist.

But in the end, he still didn't even get to see the mysterious exorcist and was easily wiped out by him.

It’s a pity that Nanami Kento searched the entire Beika Town but couldn’t find any traces of violent fluctuations in spiritual power.

On the contrary, when I was buying coffee at a convenience store, I saw a young man who seemed to have some spiritual talent.

Chapter 128: This guy is really courting death

In fact, under normal circumstances, it is not easy to tell whether a person has spiritual talent.

Either have extremely strong spiritual perception ability or use special detection equipment.

But as the current record holder for consecutive "black flashes" in the world of continuous spells, Nanami Kento's perception is naturally not too bad, otherwise he would not have been assigned to investigate the spiritual power fluctuations in Beika Town.

In his eyes, the blue-haired boy who was buying drinks was indeed a promising cultivator with good physique.

And he still had some impression of this young man.

Before coming to work overtime, he got a document that was a list of people who had recently entered and left Beika Town.

Among them was the young man in front of him who had recently moved into the wealthy area of ​​Beika Town.

The other person's spirit is very strong. If you use the power of magic to observe carefully, you can vaguely see a ball of burning flame in the other person's eyes.

This kind of vigorous physique should be quite popular among Zen monks.

Nanami Kento couldn't help but look at the other person a few more times.

Such a physique is indeed one in a million among ordinary people.

But that's about it.

Even if there are only one or two people out of ten thousand, there are still about ten to twenty thousand people in the whole of Japan.

This does not include those families and forces with hundreds or even thousands of years of heritage.

In fact, after a century of mysterious decline, even if it is revived now, the number of extraordinary people in Japan cannot exceed 10,000.

Even if he were really introduced to Zen Buddhism, he would probably only be able to become an ordinary inner disciple.

Even if you practice hard for a lifetime, you can only reach the first level at best.

And the other party lives in this shabby place called Beika Town.

If he were outside, with his physical condition, he would have no problem living a stable and healthy life.

But in Beika Town, a place full of resentment, this masculine physique will become a shackle and will more easily attract the attention of those resentful spirits.

Just like now, in a corner of the convenience store, there is a hideous-looking intermediate-level vengeful spirit staring at the young man.

I have to thank that unknown powerful exorcist for this.

After clearing out the evil spirits in Beika Town, the number of powerful vengeful spirits in Beika Town has been greatly reduced. Otherwise, the yang energy in this young man would have been completely divided up by those powerful vengeful spirits.

And perhaps it was because his eyes were always on this young man, and over time he naturally attracted the young man's attention.

The young man turned his head with some confusion and asked Nanami Kento.

"Hello, what can I do for you?"

Nanami Kento withdrew his thoughts and reached out to adjust his glasses.

"Nothing much. You must be a recent resident who moved into Beika Town. Since things are a bit complicated here, I wanted to take a few minutes of your time to ask you a few simple questions."

Facing the young man's puzzled look, Nanami Kento took out his work ID.

Of course, it is not the sorcerer certification from the Spell Headquarters, but the special consultant certificate provided by the Japanese Public Security Department.

Sorcerers often appear in various places. Although ordinary people cannot know what they do, sometimes they do need to deal with ordinary people.

An official identity will naturally make it easier to dispel other people's suspicions.

After seeing this certificate, the boy didn't look scared at all. Instead, he nodded slightly at him and said, "Mr. Nanami, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Ordinary people would not be so calm when facing questioning by the public security department, let alone the fact that the other party is just a 16 or 7-year-old boy.

It seems that this young man's identity is indeed extraordinary.

"Let's go out and talk?" Nanami Kento usually slacks off, but when he's working, he's quite serious.

The boy thought for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, but wait until I finish paying the bill first."

A few minutes later, the two men came to a street light not far from the convenience store.

Nanami Kento first asked the young man his name and identity.

"Miyauchi Hikage, 16 years old, a freshman at Toyonosaki High School."

It matched the information in the file, and the other party was not lying. Kento Nanami found the other party's information on his mobile phone and confirmed it.

"You don't seem nervous at all. Do you know why we found you?"

Nanami Kento asked, with a hint of tentativeness in his tone.

The expression of the palace's Hikage remained calm.

Starting from a few days ago, he could sense that strangers other than the girls who had the diary were mentioning his name and targeting him.
