"What a well-matched couple!"
"Miko went over. Are those Miko's parents? I'm so envious of her~"
"But her dad looks so young!"
Yotsuya Miko listened to the voices along the way and forced herself to walk toward the two people.
Yurikawa Hana looked extremely gossipy. She naturally knew that Miko's father had passed away.
Most likely, this handsome man was Miko's mother's boyfriend?
Yotsuya Touko smiled broadly when she saw her daughter Miko and her daughter's best friend Koha.
She waved, signaling for the two of them to hurry over.
Kamishiro Yu narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at the two girls wearing JK Uniforms.
Miko looked about 80% like her mother, both in appearance and ability.
She was indeed very sensitive to evil spirits; her Yin-Yang Eyes observed evil spirits as clearly as observing people.
As for the other person, Yurikawa Hana, the Life Field around her was dazzling, like a torch in the Evil Spirit World, attracting evil spirits like moths to a flame.
But at the same time, it also lures some powerful evil spirits.
Small evil spirits would be directly dissolved upon encountering her Life Field, while large, terrifying evil spirits would continuously drain her energy from medium to long distances, provided they didn't get too close.
This leads to her needing to constantly replenish her energy.
She is practically equivalent to what everyone calls a "foodie."
Seven or eight meals a day is no problem: breakfast, mid-class snack, secretly eating during class, post-lunch snack, afternoon tea, dinner, midnight snack, etc.
But miraculously, this girl hardly gained any excess weight; all the nutrients were absorbed by her chest and buttocks.
This resulted in Miko having a childlike figure compared to her.
Yotsuya Touko's words interrupted Kamishiro Yu's contemplation:
"This is Kamishiro Yu, a friend of mine. I asked him to come help this time."
"He's a very impressive person!"
"Koha, why don't you come over to our house for dinner tonight? I'll call your family."
Yotsuya Miko listened to her mother's words and saw that, quite unusually, there were no evil spirits coming near them to ask the probing question, "Can you see me?"
She suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. This must be the kind of Exorcist!
Miko was able to relax for a rare moment.
Ever since she awakened her ability, she felt her life was collapsing. Every day, she had to force herself to face those terrifying evil spirits.
The current environment, free of evil spirits, felt like heaven to her.
Hey, what if Mom managed to snag this Exorcist senior?
Miko quickly extinguished that thought.
But when Yurikawa Hana heard Miko's mother's words, she felt it wasn't that simple.
[They must be dating and just don't want to say.]
Normally, she would likely refuse to eat dinner at Miko's house.
But the current situation seemed quite interesting, so she agreed.
Kamishiro Yu also greeted the two girls, and the four rode the bus together toward Miko's house... Upon arriving at Miko's house.
Yurikawa Hana felt it was very cozy, unlike her own home, which always felt a little too empty.
Just as she put down her school bag, a warm large hand grabbed her.
[No way? Huh, could it be?]
She immediately thought of something bad, but then Kamishiro Yu's words completely confused her:
"You've been following us for so long, haven't you had enough?"
Yurikawa Hana looked at the living room. There were only Miko and her mother, and Kamishiro Yu, the man in front of her.
She watched Kamishiro Yu speak to the air near the doorway, while Miko and her mother also seemed to be looking at something.
She realized this development was strange.
"Ah, right, I forgot Koha can't see it."
Suddenly, Kamishiro Yu chanted something she couldn't understand, and then swiped his hand across her eyes:
Yurikawa Hana instantly felt her eyes brighten significantly.
A tall white figure gradually materialized from vague to clear.
Female, over two meters tall.
She wore a white dress, and the marshmallows on her chest were incredibly huge.
She had long, black, silky hair reaching her waist and wore a massive straw hat.
[Could this be?]
Yurikawa Hana was momentarily dumbfounded. Do real Urban Legends exist in this world?
And the magnet—Kamishiro Yu's words confirmed the guess in her heart.
"This is the legendary Hachishaku-sama. Don't be too scared!"
He was a little confused. This Hachishaku-sama was different from the records in the Onmyōdō he inherited. The Yin energy on her was dense, but almost none of it leaked out.
So, aside from her exceptional height, she looked almost like a normal person.
But he wouldn't judge a book by its cover.
Especially with evil spirits and urban legends, they might reveal their bloody maw the next moment.
Miko and her mother also saw this "Hachishaku-sama," as all the other evil spirits hid far away; only she was following them.
When Hachishaku-sama raised her previously bowed head, the face that had been obscured by the shadow of her straw hat was fully revealed.
"So beautiful!"
Yurikawa Hana couldn't help but exclaim, but the next moment she covered her mouth.
Facing an urban legend like this, she didn't know what the consequences would be if she said the wrong thing.
However, Hachishaku-sama calmly pointed at Miko and said:
"I want revenge. I smell the scent of that Evil God Fox Spirit on that girl."
Then she looked at Kamishiro Yu:
"I can't do it myself, but you can!"
