Genji Heavy

Before taking action, it is very necessary to obtain a reconnaissance result.

Dressed up as the Genji brothers and sisters, the most common simple humanoid monster shikigami among demon exorcists, they walked in the field very low-key.

Because not every demon exorciser who is invited here will have all the shikigami accompanying them, so the siblings, who are carefully disguised, are not inconspicuous, and the investigation is carried out smoothly.

With the decline of Yin Yang Dao, demon extermination masters who used to be unrefined began to occupy the mainstream, and their techniques are obviously more unfamiliar to Hikiri and Kagemaru than Yin Yang.

Besides, it's been a long time since their time.

There are many advanced techniques that have been lost, and there are also many techniques that have changed and innovated over the years.

——It must be reconnaissance, even if it is such a time of urgency.Otherwise, it is too novice to act indiscriminately.

Fortunately, although he is not good at these skills, he can still understand the basics after living for so many years.

Sealing paper is a unique item and does not block the line of sight.

"Attack, defense, control... oh, oh, it's really rich."

Higekiri withdrew his hand that seemed to be pressing on the wall casually, then turned his head and smiled nonchalantly at Komamaru.

Kenmaru nodded as expected, "As a family of well-known demon extermination masters in this world, it is only natural to have such preparations."

Afterwards, the two fell silent in a tacit understanding, and continued to walk in a low-key manner, passing by other shikigami plug-ins calmly.

Now, the reconnaissance is almost done.

Based on the current strength of the siblings, it is conservatively estimated that it is no problem to leave safely after disrupting consciousness, and this is enough.

Higakiri and Kemaru turned a corner and started walking towards the bustling center.

Approaching the banquet hall, the number of people gradually increased.

Of course, the current number of people is definitely not the density of normal banquets, but for a contract ceremony, the number of people is already too much.

After entering the hall, Hidekiri quickly glanced around the banquet hall calmly, and immediately found Natsume whose spiritual power was so pure and powerful that he stood out even among the many demon extermination masters.

Worried in his heart, Natsume, who was always carefully observing the surrounding situation, quickly spotted them.

"Ah! It's—"

"Shh," Natori Yiyi, who had been next to Natsume, immediately gave him a hand.

Natsume reacted in time, stopped his rash actions, and just nodded to Higiri, just like other exorcists and shikigami.

Higakiri and Komemaru found a suitable corner and stood up.

"There are quite a few people here..." Mustache sighed softly.

"Look at them..." Katsumaru murmured.

The siblings looked at each other, and said in unison, "It seems to be the representative of other exorcising master families."

It's too obvious, Shiba's intention.

In other words, as the young master of a family, such a choice is also reasonable.

Although the current exorcists don't seem to rely on the summoning ceremony to contract the shikigami, no matter what, no matter who says it, they will affirm that such a ceremony is important and serious.

But this young master of the field took advantage of this ceremony.

He not only planned to make a contract with "Onikiri" in the ceremony, but also wanted to use the method of publicizing the contract ceremony to let all the families know that the Chang family contracted a powerful shikigami to enhance the prestige of the Chang family.

Ok……

Should it be the enthusiasm of young people?

The banquet hall suddenly fell silent.

Immediately, the sound of the shakuhachi sounded, and the leisurely music surrounded the surroundings, so that the listeners could not help but immerse themselves in it.

"The sound of music," Mustache looked up, "Oh, oh, is it about to start?"

"It should be... but it's here?" Katsumaru looked at the banquet hall with some surprise.

Hidekiri tilted his head, "That's right, no matter how you look at it, such a place is inappropriate... ah."

"Will you change places?"

It seems to confirm what Higakiri said.Amidst the sound of music, a man in neat kimono appeared from the Chang family, and politely guided all the demon masters in the banquet hall to follow him to the prepared ceremony venue.

There were some whispers in the banquet hall, but they all followed the Zhang family and left.

"Hey."

Mustache stomped his feet, then walked forward with a smile.

"Hey, brother, let's follow."

Kagemaru said, "Yes—ah."

He quickly grabbed Mustache and dragged her two steps to the side.

"We're almost overtaking Natsume!" Katsumaru whispered.

"Oh, that's right, we are Natsume's shikigami now, so we have to guard him well," Higashikiri showed a suddenly enlightened expression.

"……Natsume."

Madara, who heard all this clearly, couldn't help complaining to Natsume in a low voice.

"Are they really all right? They look like dementia."

"I'm so rude, Mr. Kitty," Natsume whispered to Madara while controlling herself not to look back, "This is just the way siblings get along."

"Huh?" Spotted round face was full of inexplicable, "I can't understand."

Changed to another room, in Higakiri's opinion, this place is much more professional than the banquet hall just now, so it might be the place to hold the contract ceremony.

This place is also spacious, but the technological elements of the world have been weakened a lot, which is a little bit in line with Higakiri's impression of the contract ceremony.

She looked forward, and there was a prepared formation in the center of the room, and the man standing in the middle was probably the young master of the Chang family, Chang Jingsi.

The young man with long hair and his right eye blocked by a spell raised his head with a smile on his lips.

"Welcome everyone," he bowed slowly and gracefully, holding the box firmly in his hand.

The unobstructed left eye looked around at everyone, although he looked a little weird because of the obstruction of the right eye, but Zhang Jingsi himself exuded a dignified patriarchal aura.

"I believe you all know why I invited everyone here today."

Someone in the crowd immediately replied, "Of course, Mr. Chang has made it very clear in the invitation letter."

That's why these famous exorcist families came in such an orderly manner.

Shiba Jingji clearly stated in the invitation letter that he will sign a shikigami contract with the legendary Genji Shigeho Onikiri, the legendary demon-slaying blade, at a ceremony today.

...it's incredible.

As long as they receive the invitation letter and know about this matter, no one will want to come and see, what exactly is Zhang Jingji going to do, the contract Onikiri.

"Wait a minute, there's a question I wanted to ask before," another Patriarch said among the representatives, "Speaking of which, isn't Onikiri in Kitano Tenmangu Shrine? Even if they are both gods, it is impossible to surpass another god , arbitrarily contracted with the sword under the other party's God's Domain, Fusangshen, let alone us mere human beings."

"Who said that?"

"……Hey?"

"Who said that there is a real Onikiri in Kitano Tenmangu?" Ji Changji raised up the box in his hand, "Isn't there always been doubts about this matter, the real Onikiri disappeared in the world for a long time. "

——Fortunately, there is a sealing paper blocking it.

Otherwise, the subtle expression of mustache would probably be obvious.

There is no way, in the presence of me, listening to these people talking about whether she is her or not, and whether she has disappeared...

It's really strange.

Higekiri sighed lightly, and tapped his thigh with his fingers in distress.

And around her, those human beings had already had a discussion because of Zhang Jingsi's words, and the reaction was very strong.

If Chang Jingsi really succeeds in contracting "Onikiri", judging from his current posture, he will probably be the best among demon exorcising masters in the future.

Maybe you can take advantage of the situation and rush into the upper space that is still controlled by Onmyoji.

Oh yeah.

What a pity.

Those people asked, "Mr. Dechang, how do you prove it?"

Chang Jingsi said, "Of course I can prove it. What's more, what I hold in my hand are the remaining fragments of 'Onikiri'."

"What I have to do today is to contract the sword to pay Sangshen Guiqie and become his new master."

He reached out and pressed his left chest, smiling slightly and bowing his head slightly.

"Become Onikiri's new master as a demon master. Onikiri, the treasured sword that once belonged to Genji who fought against youkai, will surely accept the invitation of the next family."

——I used the fragments to summon, but you still describe this as a free ceremony that gives you the right to choose the reunion?

Well done, young master of the Chang family.

Mustache said softly, "Brother."

Kagemaru responded, "Well, sister."

Mustache nodded slightly, the corners of his mouth curled up, "Look, he is really an interesting young man."

Keimaru's expression remained unchanged, and he calmly commented, "Yeah, he performed well, and he has taken on the responsibility of the head of the family very well."

"That's right, this Mr. Chang has done a good job as the head of the family, and he is completely thinking about the Chang family, but unfortunately..." Higakiri moved his wrist, "I'll say sorry later."

"After all, he failed his expectations."
