I'm slaying demons in the anime

"Oh."

Seeing that Beichen Xiao's eyes didn't look like he was joking, Shigu Jianzi let go of his hand.

"Tell me first, why do you know my name?" Beichen Xiao asked Yotsuya Miko.

"Well, if I'm not mistaken, Beichen-kun and I should be classmates."

Yotsuya Miko answered cautiously, feeling somewhat puzzled at the same time.

Why did Beichen Xiao, who used to be gloomy and silent in class, change so much? He was like a completely different person.

"Classmate?" Beichen Xiao was stunned. He didn't expect that the girl he rescued by chance last night happened to be his classmate.

"Yes, we are in the same class."

When Yotsuya Miko saw Beichen Xiao's expression as he couldn't remember anything at all, she felt like a complete failure.

It’s been a semester. Even if you didn’t say much in class, there should be some impression left on you, right?

Could it be that she is so unpopular?

In the face of Yotsuya Miko's doubts, Beichen Xiao did not give any explanation.

However, since this is the original body's classmate, it would be difficult to just chase him away.

"Forget it, you come in first." Beichen Xiao turned around and said to Yotsuya Miko.

When Jianzi saw the other person turning and leaving, he quickly followed him.

At the same time, he carefully looked around the shrine and Beichen Xiao who was dressed in formal attire.

Although the building of Beichen Shrine is a bit dilapidated, judging from its specifications and floor space, it should be a large shrine.

But before today, Jianzi had never heard of a shrine nearby.

And she could also see that no one had visited this shrine for a long time.

What Beichen Xiao was wearing was the formal attire that shrine staff only wore when holding events, which made Yotsuya Miko even more curious about Beichen Xiao.

"Um... why is Beichen here?"

Seeing that Beichen Xiao was walking by himself without saying a word, Shigu Jianzi asked cautiously.

"This is my home." Beichen Xiao pointed to the house next to him, "My home is right here."

It turns out that Beichen’s family is actually a clergyman!

There were flashes of golden light in Yotsuya Miko's golden pupils.

No wonder Beichen Xiao was able to kill Sadako with a sword last night, it turns out it was a family heirloom!

Faced with Beichen Xiao's answer, Yotsuya Miko was even more certain that she could finally be saved this time.

But the girl didn't know.

At this time, Beichen Xiao was thinking about what reason he should use to get the other party to leave.

(Partner, this girl doesn't seem simple. I feel a terrible curse from her.)

At this time, the dragon-slaying sword on Beichen Xiao's wrist secretly transmitted a message to Beichen Xiao.

(I know, with such a strong curse and the smell of death, it is probably a curse from an evil god-level existence.)

(Will my partner take over this? I think...)

(It depends, but I don’t think I have the ability to do so)

"By the way, Beichen-san, where is the shrine's chief priest?"

At this moment, Yotsuya Miko suddenly asked Beichen Xiao.

In her opinion, if Beichen Xiao is already so powerful, then the god of this shrine should be even more powerful.

Maybe it can solve her problem.

However, Beichen Xiao said at this time: "The previous chief of Beichen Shrine has passed away, and now I am the chief."

Volume 1: Chapter 6: The Little Rich Woman and the New Mission

"Yes, sorry, I don't know..."

After hearing that Beichen Xiao's parents had passed away, Yotsuya Miko hurriedly apologized.

"Nothing, it's not your fault."

Beichen Xiao did not blame Jianzi, and there was a hint of open-mindedness in his tone.

After walking through the long approach to the shrine, the two of them entered the main hall of the shrine.

Following behind Beichen Xiao, Si Gu Jianzi looked around nervously.

In the vast hall, there is only a half-destroyed statue.

As for why the statues in the shrine were destroyed.

She didn't dare to say or ask.

"Brother, who is this sister?"

Beichen Lin, who had already changed his clothes and happened to come to the main hall, couldn't help but become curious when he saw Yotsuya Miko following behind Beichen Xiao.

In her eyes, this pretty older sister seemed to be covered by something, making her feel very uncomfortable.

"I'll take the believer who came to worship here to have a look."

Beichen Xiao did not say that Yotsuya Miko was his classmate, he just thought that the other party came in to pay homage.

"So that's it."

Faced with Beichen Xiao's words, Lin did not doubt it at all.

At the same time, looking at Yotsuya Miko's expression, he also became enthusiastic.

"Hello."

Looking at the eager Beichen Lin, Yotsuya Miko was still a little uncomfortable.

"Rin, please go out for a while. I have something to discuss with this lady. Go and get the things that were left at home."

Beichen Xiao said to Lin calmly.

"Okay brother."

Beichen Lin looked at Yotsuya Miko with curiosity, then left the main hall.

Immediately afterwards, Beichen Xiao gestured to Yotsuya Kenko to sit down.

And poured her a cup of tea.

"Gulu~ Um, Beichen classmate, is my condition serious?"

Seeing that Beichen Xiao always had a serious expression, even Jianzi began to worry.

"Honestly, it's not too serious."

"Huh~ That's good."

Yotsuya Miko patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

"If nothing unexpected happens, you can probably live until next month at most."

"Pfft! Cough cough cough!"

At this moment, Yotsuya Miko couldn't help herself and all the tea that had just been put into her mouth sprayed out.

Beichen Xiao was quick-witted and quick-handed. He picked up the plate on the ground and caught all the tea.

"how so!"

Yotsuya Miko originally thought that there were just more ghosts around her.

At most, it will be more terrifying than before.

As a result, according to Beichen Xiao, he wouldn't even live to see the next month.

"Actually, next month is just a conservative estimate. If you're unlucky, it wouldn't be surprising if you died tomorrow."

Yotsuya Kenko almost choked to death.

I thought it was unlucky enough that I only had a month to live, but now it has only been one day.

"Student Beichen, this shouldn't be necessary." Jianzi said to Beichen Xiao with a pale face.

"Very good."

Beichen Xiao saw that Si Gu Jianzi didn't believe it, so he explained.

"Ghosts are extremely yin creatures. Although you haven't been attacked by a ghost yet, ghosts are still ghosts after all. They can suck the yang energy of living people, causing them to become weak or even die."

Beichen Xiao looked at Yotsuya Miko carefully and asked, "Can you see ghosts with your eyes?"

Yotsuya Miko's unique golden eyes couldn't help but blink, "Yes, yes."

"Then you should know the number of ghosts around you." Beichen Xiao nodded.

“It used to be one, but after this morning, there are four or five.”

Yotsuya Miko said in distress.

After listening to Beichen Xiao's explanation, she finally understood why she felt sore all over and lacked energy when she woke up today.

I thought it was because I was too tired last night, but it turned out to be because of ghosts.

"Give me a strand of your hair." Beichen Xiao stretched out his hand towards Yotsuya Miko, his eyes as calm as water.

Although Yotsuya Jianzi was doubtful, he still pulled out a strand of hair without hesitation and handed it to Beichen Xiao.

Beichen Xiao took the hair and gently put it into the cup of water.

Yotsuya Miko stared at the water cup and saw ripples on the surface of the water, and the water turned into a dark pool in the blink of an eye.

She was dumbfounded and couldn't help but feel extremely confused.

"What on earth is this?"

The black water seemed to be endowed with life, and ghostly wails rose and fell as it surged. Yotsuya Miko felt waves of chills rising up her spine, and she shivered uncontrollably.

"Sure enough, it's a very strong curse."

Beichen Xiao nodded.

He was indeed not mistaken. The curse on this girl was simply horrifying.

"Bei, Beichen classmate, why is this happening?"

Jianzi asked Beichen Xiao with a trembling voice. She couldn't understand why her hair became like this after being put into the water.

"This is a curse, but don't worry, it won't kill you directly. It will probably just make you extremely unlucky recently. And it will attract more demons and monsters."

"Isn't this something to worry about?"

Yotsuya Miko was completely numb.

She finally understood why Beichen Xiao said that she might die tomorrow.

"Then, is there any way that Beichen can help me expel this curse?"

At this time, Yotsuya Jianzi looked at Beichen Xiao pitifully, but he never expected that Beichen Xiao just shook his head without even thinking.

"No."

"Hey?!"

When Yotsuya Miko saw that Beichen Xiao didn't even hesitate, he directly refused, and his eyes revealed indescribable discomfort.

"I can pay you! How about 40,000, no, 50,000 yen?"

Yotsuya Miko said hurriedly, which almost made Beichen Xiao's expression unable to hold back.

Wow, she directly offered 50,000 yen. I didn’t expect that this girl is actually a wealthy woman.
