I, the lord of ghost stories

Like gems, crystal clear, pocket-sized, like works of art.

These spiders are stepping on the air, dancing cheerfully, sometimes changing shapes, sometimes forming lions, sometimes forming words.

There was also a small glittering and translucent spider, which timidly floated down and landed on the outstretched right index finger of Yuu Sifengin.

From this jewel-like little red spider, there was a faint feeling of admiration and attachment.

"This child was born in this school, and [the water in the washbasin turned into a spider] is its rumor."

"Later, because the school changed the sink, the rumors continued for a short time."

The puppet girl was next to Yuu Sifeng, explaining softly.

"Its rumors lasted for a short time, and few people knew about it. It could not have been formed at all."

"If it weren't for the power of my father, who just opened up here at that time, this child would not have appeared at all."

"All of this is the grace of my father."

Chapter One Hundred and Four

【Lord of Strange Tales】.

As the name suggests, he is the god of ghost stories.

……

In the darkness, a space of hundreds of square meters of stone slabs was vaguely in front of him.

A faint blue light hangs down, only Sifengyuanyou can see it, sprinkled on the land.

On the ground, the building moves away from the surroundings, and a high mountain with light rises in the center. There are lush forests on the mountain, exuding a breath of new life.

At the top of the mountain, a beam of light hangs down, and the familiar connection is there.

That space full of stone slabs... entered here.

At the foot of the mountain, there is a white jade square of tens of thousands of square meters, full of moist white light everywhere.

There are flower beds above the square with roses of various colors blooming.

There is a huge statue at the core, it is a young man, his appearance is nine points similar to that of Yuu Sifengin, with a calm expression, gazing into the distance.

At the feet of the statue, a water column spewed up a foot, and the spring water with a strong energy atmosphere gurgled and flowed into the pool.

The pool was enlarged, and the water was very close to overflowing.

The clear spring water is full of light, as if it is a spring of light.

"Go, this is a gift for you."

With a flick of the finger, the little red spider and the floating atmospheric jellyfish, like a kite being pulled, fluttered and fell onto the square.

Light seeps into them, gradually condensing into a human form.

The mist from the spring water washed away the unclean atmosphere.

Many [lore] like this have no specific form, and complete this transformation in the square.

The number is not very large, only two or three hundred.

In the light, they basically turned into little ones... big or small, many of them didn't look as big as babies.

This shows that their strength is very weak, and in fact they are far from enough to take human form.

"These children should be the first batch of residents."

"As for you..."

Sifengyuan pondered for a while, thinking of a name.

"How about Ichinoe Mizue?"

"It sounds like a place name...but since it's my father's name..."

It seemed that she was a little concerned about the name, but the girl still gracefully lifted the hem of her skirt and saluted.

"From today, I will be called Ichinoe Mizue."

"Father, do you have any orders?"

Ichinoe Mizue still looks very happy.

"Well... yes."

"Ichinoe, you have to follow your rules to maintain your existence, right?"

"Yes, my lord."

"All Lore must act according to the rules as much as possible, but they can also violate a small amount."

"For example, according to the rules, I have to chase after those targets who are related to me, but I can choose not to kill them in the end."

"In this way, it maintains its existence without violating the rules."

"Moreover, those who survive will spread the word of my existence everywhere."

"You can violate the rules at birth to a limited extent—this is what I, being loved by my father, can have!"

"It's the strength my father gave me."

Ichinoe Mizue replied cheerfully.

"About the matter in Yueyin City, how should we end it?"

Yuu Sifeng had a headache.

The commission has been accepted, but it is impossible to hand over Mizue Ichinoe...

"For this issue, my lord father, please leave it to me to deal with it."

Before leaving this world, Ichinoe Mizue begged so.

The sky is cloudy, and the morning sun is red and yellow in the east.

The exquisite garden viewing room is separated by transparent glass on three sides, admiring the lake outside the window.

Outside the open window, there was the sound of an unknown bird.

Calm, peaceful morning.

Rena Uekawa, who hadn't slept all night, changed into a long skirt and sat at a small round table covered with a tablecloth, holding a cup of coffee in her hand.

There were faint bloodshot eyes in her eyes, it was obvious that after going through such an exciting event, she did not get enough rest.

Opposite her was a radiant young man wearing light gray suit trousers.

Sitting on the left is a perfect and elegant girl, with fair skin and a beautiful face, she doesn't look like a human at all—yes, she was born from an urban legend.

"Ichinoe Mizue."

"Yes, if you have any questions, just ask me."

"I'm... In short, I promised to be responsible for finishing."

Ichinoe Mizue did not reveal Sifeng Yuanyuu's true identity in front of outsiders.

It can be said that she is really a considerate girl.

Rena Uekawa held the coffee and looked at the girl carefully.

Looks cute and has a sweet smile.

Looks completely heartless...

It is completely unimaginable that this is the "existence" that almost killed her yesterday.

"Do you feel any guilt about killing someone?"

"Absolutely not!"

Yizhijiang Ruijiang categorically denied it.

"Killing is my duty, it's up to the rumor itself."

"It's against nature not to kill someone."

"But I know that Father doesn't like to kill people casually, so I'm lenient to those who have no crime."

"This has nothing to do with you, absolutely, definitely not being sympathized!"

Pay special attention to this sentence.

Yizhijiang Ruijiang looked a little brooding.

It seems that at that time, because of the second-hand softness in his arms, he was very concerned.

"So, can we do it again?"

"what?"

"Please try it, summon it again, let me kill it."

Such a horrifying speech made Rena Uekawa's smile stiffen.

Yuu Sifengin raised his head slightly and coughed.

Ichinoe Mizue immediately became obedient.

"Lore, what is it?"

"Those urban legends that have been transformed into actual forms, we call them 'Lore'.

It is the "Lore" part of the word Folklore.

It almost means inheritance, knowledge or something like that. "

"'Lore'... I remember you said it last night."

That's a word I hear occasionally.Although I have never heard of it, it is a noun that is easy to remember.

"Yes."

"Each [LoreJ] has unique rules.

For example, my "Spell Doll—Mary Doll", as you know, will first push the target to a corner, and finally make the other party turn around. By letting the other party see my appearance, the purpose of killing and revenge is achieved.

If necessary, he would even turn the opponent's head around directly to complete the killing. "

Rena Uekawa felt itchy around her neck, put her hands on her neck, and touched it back and forth.

"...But, you just said that you just turned the other person's head around. Wouldn't that kill him before the other person saw you?"

This sentence sounds horrible.

However, if you turn the opponent's neck hard, most people will die.

In other words, behaviors such as "turning the opponent's head in order to kill" and "turning the neck hard in order to make the opponent turn the head" are contradictory.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"Any object surrounded by the urban legend-like rules of "Lore"—that is, "Lore's World" will probably not be able to influence them if they act outside the rules."

"What do you mean?"

"To put it simply, the person I hunted down may not die even if his head is beheaded."

"……Really?"

Even that "contradiction", Mizue Ichinoe said as if it was arranged in a story.

While no one has actually been beheaded yet, the mere possibility of it is startling.

"Most of the phenomena that occur in urban legends cannot be verified logically or scientifically.

The logic of the "story" will rule.The moment those urban legends become reality and become an existence called "Lore", the laws of the world within its sphere of influence will be governed by "Lore".

That is "Lore's World". "

It's also amazing.
