In the shadows, after the box containing spirit stones entered Thirteen Cherry Blossom Village in the hands of the Demon Ghost, the spirit stones, which Priest Rihu had already tampered with, began to take effect.
Kikuchi Daisuke's strike sped up the scattering of the spirit stones from the box by the flustered Demon Ghost, merely accelerating the process.
The golden stones absorbed into the ground began to exert their influence.
At the cemetery behind Thirteen Cherry Blossom Village, and in the depths always cared for and worshipped by the Priest Village Chief, at the two locations of the Divine Sakura Tree, two resounding beast roars filled with resentment and violence suddenly erupted!
"Moo!"
"Neeeiiigh!"
The people of Thirteen Cherry Blossom Village were quite familiar with these sounds and could roughly tell they were the characteristic sounds of a cow and a horse.
Yet the usual sounds of livestock being cared for, washed, and fed now seemed so... chilling!
