Come Forth, My Mysterious Power...! (cont.)

After all, the Club President once said that the Dao should not be easily passed on.

Moreover, putting someone with her personality like my Little Sister in the risk of battle might actually harm Little Sister.

Therefore, her plan was that if she were to be able to help others awaken in the future, she would then consider involving her Little Sister in the struggles of the underworld.

"So that's what you were thinking."

Nibuya Morika observed her expression, gleaning something from it.

The Silver-haired Witch turned her head to Hasegawa and said, "Club President, why aren't you criticizing what I just said?"

"What are you complaining about? I'm Sister Complex!"

Hasegawa Izumi raised her head and readily admitted it.

Everyone's expressions were different.

In short, they understood that Kōko's position was indeed unshakeable.

"Huh, Death has a new visitor to the Sea of Electrons?"

In a corner, there was a laptop computer, donated by Dekomori Sanae.

It doesn't serve any major purpose; it's just for people to check the website's status on a daily basis.

Although it still doesn't have much popularity, the Far East Magic Society has indeed received some mysterious requests and resolved them properly.

Some of them even planned to spend money to buy items that could be used for exorcism. So, they set up an "Exorcism Item Shop" and put some of the things they had collected that they didn't need on the shop to sell. This became a channel for the girls to monetize their abilities.

After all, if I become an Ability User and still have to live a miserable life, then what's the point of my awakening?

"Strange, why aren't there any new messages, Death?"

Dekomori Sanae clicked into the email section, her eyes filled with confusion. She thought she had misread it and was about to exit the webpage when she suddenly moved the mouse away.

"Wrong!"

She immediately snapped out of her daze, focused her attention, and saw the latest message in the message bar that she hadn't seen before.

I almost overlooked it.

Dekomori Sanae was puzzled and carefully read the contents.

"The description is a bit unclear; we might end up making a wasted trip."

"Let her give us an address; whoever lives nearby can go check it out."

"If it's true, there might be danger."

"Let Dekumori go, Death!"

The girls discussed it casually for a moment, Thunder Hammer User, remembering what had just happened, decided to take the initiative.

"Lord Sage, do you have any instructions for me?"

She turned to ask.

"If anything unexpected happens, then notify the others."

Hasegawa Izumi pondered for a moment and said.

"OK."

After having a clear understanding of the situation, Dekomori Sanae contacted the client and decided to go and meet with them immediately.

There is no time to lose!

That's just her personality, just like the lightning power she awakened.

"Huh, it's actually in the direction of the Lord Sage?"

Dekomori Sanae walked out of Shuchiin and was somewhat surprised when she saw the address the other party had given her.

However, this is also a good thing. Even if the final boss appears, she believes that the Lord Sage will be able to handle it.

We arrived near a pedestrian bridge.

As she walked up the steps, she saw a girl waiting not far away, staring blankly at the trams speeding past on the Toden Arakawa Line.

"You're Kato- senpai, right? I'm a first-year high school student now, so I should call you senpai (death)."

When facing strangers alone, Dekomori Sanae also became slightly more serious and polite.

"No need to be so polite, you can call me whatever you like."

Kato Megumi turned to the side.

"Speaking of which, Dekumori, you actually recognized me at a glance?"

Why ask Death that?

"Because I've always had a very weak sense of presence growing up, that's why..."

"So that's what happened. No wonder I had that strange feeling about Death."

Upon hearing the other party's explanation, Dekomori Sanae finally understood.

"However, I'm a very strong Dekumori, you Ability User. It won't be so easy to fool my senses, even if Kato- senpai has strong invisibility abilities."

She said with a proud expression.

"An Ability User? I've never seen one before. Can you show me?"

Kato Megumi's tone finally betrayed a sense of urgency.

Let's shake hands.

Dekomori Sanae gave a mischievous smile.

Kato Megumi hesitated for a moment, then reached out her hand.

"Sizzle..."

She felt a tingling sensation from the electric shock, and her brows furrowed.

Although the intensity wasn't very high, the stinging sensation was still quite noticeable for someone who had never experienced it before.

"My power is lightning; its characteristics are quite obvious, so there's no need to hide it or conceal Death."

Dekomori Sanae let go of her hand.

"Superpowers really exist."

There was a hint of confusion in Kato Megumi's eyes.

People who have grown up in modern society usually need time to accept this kind of thing.

Having been through Dekomori Sanae stood to the side admiring the scenery.

"So, Sakurai-san is indeed in danger... Unfortunately, she's turned to the wrong person; I don't have that ability."

Kato Megumi sighed and turned her gaze to Dekumori.

"Dekumori- kun, I'm counting on you from now on."

"Do you know where she is now?"

Dekomori Sanae asked.

"... have no idea."

Kato Megumi then realized that she was not familiar with Sakurai-san at all, and did not know her contact information or address.

Having no other option, she could only try asking other people.

After three consecutive phone calls, she finally got through to her Homeroom Teacher.

The Homeroom Teacher was initially suspicious of her identity, but after confirming it, she took the matter seriously.

"I can't disclose information about the student's family casually, but I can contact her family first, and then I'll contact you again after confirming."

After saying that, the Homeroom Teacher hung up the phone.

"This is such a hassle, Death!"

Dekomori Sanae stomped her foot, her patience waning.

"The teacher handled it according to the rules."

Kato Megumi only said one sentence.

A few minutes later.

"Beep..."

"Hey, teacher, did Sakurai-san agree?"

"I called her home phone, but no one answered..."

"Oh, okay, then teacher, could you give me her home address?"

Kato Megumi's sudden assertiveness made Dekumori.

"Alright, I'll give you her address... Kato, can you confirm it for me?"

The Homeroom Teacher sensed something was amiss and worried that something serious might happen, so they still violated the rules.

"It's not far from here, we'll be there soon."

"Then let's hurry up and set off, Death!"

After receiving the address, the two quickly got to work.

Meanwhile, at Sakurai's home.

"God, please protect my daughter."

May she be able to overcome any danger she may encounter...

A middle-aged couple was praying devoutly beneath the effigies they were worshipping.

This doll, known as a 'ningyo' or 'hiningyo', is a traditional offering from Tou-ei parents to their daughters on Girls' Day, as a way to celebrate and pray for their healthy growth.

Although it may look somewhat eerie and terrifying, as a traditional cultural practice, it has always been a product that everyone firmly believes in.

However, despite their prayers, the doll remained unmoved and showed no reaction whatsoever, which left them in utter despair.

This is to be expected, because it is merely a traditional cultural artwork made by ordinary craftsmen and has no spiritual power.

Therefore, it was impossible for them to make it display divine power and repel the evil spirits that were about to invade.

It's right downstairs.

Sakurai sat on the sofa with her eyes closed, tear stains still visible at the corners of her eyes.

She knew that everyone targeted by that evil spirit had died.

She now deeply regrets it.

If I hadn't joined that expedition out of curiosity about the paranormal, I wouldn't have ended up like this.

Although he had gained some of the strange power of the 'Onmyo Eyes,' the outcome would be no different when facing that evil spirit.

"Fortunately, I had time to say goodbye to my parents..."

"That's enough for me."

After enduring such a long period of torment, the Girlish Heart has begun to feel relieved.

Suddenly, the living room lights began to flicker.

Is it coming?

Just as the lights went out with a 'snap'.

Suddenly, a bloodless hand reached out from the television screen in front of them, and then an evil spirit slowly crawled out of it.

It was dressed in a pale, tattered kimono, its hair disheveled, completely obscuring its features, just like the legendary Sadako.

The sight of this terrifying scene made Sakurai feel as if the temperature around him had suddenly dropped below zero, and a chill ran down his spine.
