But this is precisely the perfect time for a parade of ghosts.
An unknown fog spread from the streets of District 20.
A variety of figures gathered from the shadows in all directions.
Centuries later, the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons has once again swept through the streets of Tokyo!
"Is this right here?"
"Kyoukotsu, stop fooling around."
"Hehe, I'll go check on him."
The wooden door was pushed open by some force.
A petite figure jumped in from outside the door.
"Hey!"
"Are you our new commander-in-chief?!"
Chapter 42 A Girl as Beautiful as Flowers in a Mountain Breeze! Lord of a Hundred Demons!
The streets of Tokyo.
District 20.
Countless wisps of mist, mixed with raindrops that had fallen at some unknown time, gradually obscured the view.
In this sudden, misty autumn rain.
Those who are fast asleep remain asleep.
Those who revel will continue to revel.
A hundred ghosts roamed above, and some people mingled among them, yet were even happier than the ghosts.
"Kyoto is really peculiar these days..."
Leading a large group of monsters, they roamed the streets of Tokyo as if returning in fine clothes.
A glimmer of light seemed to appear in Yamabuki Otome's eyes.
She seemed to recall the time in her memory when she was the lord of demons and monsters, with countless monsters submitting to her.
Back then, it was a world ruled by humans.
But it is also a world ruled by monsters.
Time flies...
"The monsters have been forgotten..."
The mountains are blooming.
Just like her soft murmur.
The fear of being the lord of all demons enveloped the streets of Tokyo.
Her long black hair flowed, creating ripples.
Golden mountain hibiscus flowers bloomed at every street corner I passed.
"Sister, where are we going now?"
The petite loli standing next to Otome asked curiously.
She was holding a skull, with a green snake coiled inside it.
"Go to a place you absolutely must go."
Yamabuki Otome smiled and patted Kyokotsu's head, making the latter very happy.
"Our future commander-in-chief is there."
"Eh?! The Commander-in-Chief!!!"
The small body of the mad bone contained great doubts, and its two round, bulging eyes were filled with confusion.
"Sister, aren't you our commander-in-chief?"
"No, he's more suitable to be our commander-in-chief than I am."
As Yamabuki Otome spoke, her face radiated maternal warmth.
Her slender fingers lightly traced her lower abdomen.
A faint throbbing sensation made her steps falter, and she almost let out an involuntary groan.
suddenly.
A strange monster ran up from behind.
"Mad Bones-sama! Otome-sama!"
"We spotted two humans ahead; they seem to be the prosecutors that Lady Otome mentioned before!"
"Kill her, sister?"
Kyokotsu sat atop a floating skull, his smooth toes swinging back and forth.
That direction?
Otome Yamabuki's gaze darkened slightly.
"Knock those two humans out and throw them out."
"understand!"
The strange monster nodded and flew away again.
Suddenly, Kyokotsu stared wide-eyed at Yamabuki Otome: "Onee-sama, is it because of our Commander-in-Chief?"
"Yes, let's go see him."
……
The night was hazy.
Inside the small shop, Aoba struggled to finish a plate of braised bear paw slices.
He seemed to understand how Nurarihyon and Ushioni had felt.
This special dish that can boost his skill level seems to be something he can't eat in large quantities at once.
But then I thought about it.
Right.
After all, it would be great if we could eat without any restrictions.
Wouldn't that turn into a gluttonous beast?
Moreover, he estimated that his current strength was comparable to that of Rize Kamishiro before.
To the young master, next time you encounter Rize Kamishiro, you definitely won't be so passive.
He wants to be on top!
Just as he was pondering how to approach Rize Kamishiro and assert his masculine dignity.
The wooden door of the small shop was pushed open.
"Ah... welcome."
Aoba reflexively got up and looked towards the door.
However, apart from the slight mist that permeated the small shop, there seemed to be no one there.
"Ok?"
"Are you our commander-in-chief?"
Suddenly.
A soft, cute voice came from Aoba's ear.
He glanced sideways.
A little girl, barely a meter tall, was sitting on the table, swinging her tiny feet.
He was still toying with a skull with a blue venomous snake in his hand.
"this...."
Did I stumble upon a monster's lair tonight?
Aoba paused for a moment, then quickly recovered, bent down, looked directly into the little girl's eyes, and smiled:
"I'm not some general, you know. Are you lost and can't find your way home?"
"Can you contact your family?"
Faced with Aoba's question, Kyokotsu didn't speak, but just curiously looked at the handsome older brother in front of him.
Then, unsurprisingly...
"Ah! My sister's flowers!"
She saw the swaying mountain hibiscus in the corner of the front hall.
It was a grand and elegant affair.
"sister?"
Aoba's puzzled look seemed to indicate that she understood something.
In other words...
Is this child a subordinate of that 'fox spirit' girl?
After all, according to Nurarihyon, weaker yokai would join the ranks of stronger yokai.
This can also be considered a way of survival.
Just as he was thinking of asking.
