In Yotsuya Miko's eyes, there was a hint of disappointment. When she looked up, she saw that Night Star was barely holding back a laugh, on the verge of bursting out.

"You! Are you mocking me? Do you think I'm too weak?"

"That's not it."

Night Star waved his hand with a smile that wasn't quite a smile.

"What I'm laughing at isn't your strength, but your brain."

Before Yotsuya Miko could retort, he said with a smile.

"Condensing the power of evil spirits into weapons and devouring evil spirits to enhance strength are my own special constitution, not the ability of soul manifestation. If you want to compare, you should compare your Hundred Eyes with my Pale Ghost Hand."

"Oh, oh… I see."

Yotsuya Miko seemed a little embarrassed upon hearing this, realizing that was the case.

She had even thought about what weapon she wanted to use after awakening her soul manifestation.

So, that was Night Star's special constitution.

"By the way, how many eyes does your Hundred Eyes have now?"

Hearing Night Star's question, Yotsuya Miko replied without hesitation.

"Two, one on each hand."

"Hmm…"

Night Star tapped the table with his fingers, making rhythmic clicks, as if deep in thought.

"Evil spirits can devour each other. Your Hundred Eyes currently only has two eyes, which is completely different from the great demon with eyes all over its body recorded in the Hundred Demons' Night Parade. This proves that your Hundred Eyes is currently only a newborn among evil spirits, and there is still a lot of room for improvement in strength."

Low EQ: Why are you so weak?

High EQ: Miss Yotsuya Miko, you still have a lot of room for improvement.

Yotsuya Miko didn't notice the sarcastic tone in Night Star's words, and just nodded.

"Hmm… so, if I want to make my Hundred Eyes stronger, I have to let it devour other evil spirits. This kind of evolution… it's truly worthy of being an evil spirit."

Then, Yotsuya Miko looked up at Night Star.

"By the way, there's something I want to tell you."

"What's up?"

"My Hundred Eyes is female."

"Heh, how novel. Hundred Eyes is a manifestation of your inner self and soul, so of course it's the same gender as you."

"Then your Pale Ghost Hand… is it male or female?"

Yotsuya Miko's question took Night Star by surprise.

He pondered for a moment before replying.

"This… I feel… it seems to be intersex?"

Noticing the slightly complicated expressions on Yotsuya Miko and Yuigahama Yui's faces, Night Star immediately explained righteously.

"Of course, this doesn't mean I'm intersex. The Ghost Hand is intersex only because I usually like to be sarcastic."

"Is there such a thing?"

"Of course."

Night Star still maintained a smile on his face, but he had other thoughts in his mind.

Through Yotsuya Miko's soul manifestation, he confirmed two things.

The first.

Just as Futaba Rio analyzed.

A spiritualist with Yin-Yang Eyes already has the qualifications to fight against the uncanny.

And the change in cognition is like a key to unlocking the ability of soul manifestation.

When Yotsuya Miko's perception of evil spirits changed from monsters that must be hidden from, can only be avoided, and cannot be defeated, to enemies that must be eliminated in order to protect others, her soul manifestation, Hundred Eyes, awakened accordingly.

As for himself?

As a transmigrator… no, this blame can't be put on the transmigrator.

As an abstract artist, a person with abnormal thinking, on the first day Night Star awakened his Yin-Yang Eye ability, the first thing he thought of when he saw evil spirits was not to run away, but to go where they go.

Evil spirits can harm humans, why can't humans harm evil spirits?

So from the beginning, he awakened the manifestation of his own soul and possessed the ability to fight against the uncanny.

The second point.

Whether it's his ability to become stronger by devouring other evil spirits and also obtain memory fragments, or the Pale Ghost Hand, both seem to be different from Yotsuya Miko's Hundred Eyes and most evil spirits.

According to Night Star's experience.

Whenever it comes to this kind of time, the abnormal one is usually himself.

After all, he's a transmigrator, so it's normal to be a little abnormal.

"I'm so sleepy, I'm going to sleep for a while."

Yuigahama Yui stretched lazily, rubbed her eyes, and walked into the bedroom yawning.

Yotsuya Miko sighed helplessly and muttered to herself.

"I really don't know whether to say she's slow or too brave. She can actually sleep in this situation."

After complaining, Yotsuya Miko looked at Night Star, who was leaning lazily on the sofa, with a hesitant expression, and asked tentatively.

"After returning to the real world, what are you going to do about Yui's matter?"

Night Star understood her meaning without Yotsuya Miko having to explain it clearly.

This time was an accident.

Yuigahama Yui, an ordinary person, actually followed him and Yotsuya Miko, two spiritualists, into the Kyoto City of the Otherworld.

Moreover, she witnessed the entire process of the battle with Hachishaku-sama.

What will happen next?

"I think this Yuigahama Yui is also a good person. Why don't you and I think of a way to earn her into the Supernatural Quantum Mechanics Research Society, and from now on, eat meat in big mouthfuls and drink wine in big bowls, wouldn't that be great?"

Yotsuya Miko curled her lips and said speechlessly.

"Do you think this is Water Margin?"

"Yo, you're quite cultured."

After Night Star teased her, he said unhurriedly.

"Anyway, you don't have to worry. Even if Yuigahama-san doesn't join the club, with her personality, she won't go out and talk nonsense. Even if we take ten thousand steps back, even if she tells tonight's events, no one will believe her."

"Okay, let's rest for a while."

Yotsuya Miko nodded slightly, curled up on the sofa, and began to close her eyes to rest.

The consumption of the initial soul manifestation was like draining her whole person.

Yotsuya Miko had long been exhausted and was able to hold on until now entirely by relying on her tenacious willpower.

… …

Soon, the time came to five o'clock in the morning.

"Open the door."

Night Star's short two words made Hachishaku-sama, who was curled up in the corner, tremble again. She honestly swiped her hand in the air, and a wooden door slowly appeared.

Just as Night Star, Yuigahama Yui, Yotsuya Miko, and Sabre, the three people and one dog, were about to pass through the door and return to Kyoto City in the real world, Hachishaku-sama suddenly reached out and grabbed Night Star's sleeve.

"Can… can you take me with you?"

Chapter 042 Signing a Contract

Hearing Hachishaku-sama's words and her pleading tone, Yuigahama Yui and Yotsuya Miko were dumbfounded.

What's the situation?

Hachishaku-sama wants Night Star to take her away?

What the hell?

How did the interrogation turn into developing feelings?

Could it be that this is the legendary Stockholm syndrome?

Are they acting out a ghost romance here?

As the person involved, Night Star's expression remained calm when he heard Hachishaku-sama's sudden shocking words. Even his eyes didn't fluctuate, as if he had expected this to happen, and only said with a smile.

"It seems that you still know what's good for you."

"The door" is a existence that connects two worlds.

Or to put it more clearly.

In a sense, "the door" breaks the boundary between life and death.

No matter what the reason, whether it's her own special nature or a coincidence.

In short, Hachishaku-sama, who is integrated with "the door", is no longer an ordinary evil spirit, but can travel between two worlds and kill humans by bringing them to Kyoto in the Otherworld.

Such an ability is simply a priceless treasure in the eyes of the other evil spirits who want to devour human souls but cannot do so.

Is Hachishaku-sama strong?

Actually, she's okay. After all, she's a famous evil spirit, and with the integration of "the door", ordinary evil spirits are indeed not her opponents.

But how many evil spirits are lurking in this Otherworld Kyoto City?

How many unknown terrifying existences are there in that thick black mist?

If this continues, Hachishaku-sama will only end up in one way.

That is to be devoured by evil spirits that are stronger than her and covet the power of "the door".

Of course, evil spirits are also afraid of death.

What's more, Hachishaku-sama has already personally experienced the pain and torment of being devoured bit by bit.

She is very afraid of Night Star.

But the same goes.

Since she is afraid of him, then other evil spirits will definitely be afraid of him too.

As the saying goes, a good bird chooses a tree to perch on.

Is it embarrassing?

Not at all.

"Since that's the case…"

Night Star put away his smile and slowly said.

"Let's sign a contract."

In Yotsuya Miko's original experience, she signed a contract with the gods in the shrine.

The terms of the deal were to exchange everything she had for the right to have the gods help her three times.

It can be seen that in the contract, humans are usually the disadvantaged party.

But the current situation is completely the opposite.

In the shocked gazes of Yuigahama Yui and Yotsuya Miko, Night Star said something that they had never expected.

"The condition of the contract is that you become my assistant."
