A Yokai Feast in Tokyo / High-Tech Cultivation!

After the Monster left, they spread the word about why Shuya had been collecting Demon Power.

His act of loyalty and righteousness shocked the Monster.

He would fight against all the Monster in Japan for the sake of one woman.

It's simply... enough to inspire awe even in demons!

Chapter 219, Section 203: Tokyo Demon Banquet

As mentioned earlier, the Japan people have a tradition of being immature and eccentric.

So, Monster transformed from humans naturally tend to be on the chuunibyou (delusional) side.

They thought this behavior was incredibly cool.

In fact, most Monster, except for a few like Fox Demon Monster, are generally quite honest and simple-minded.

Or you could say it's rather stupid.

Therefore, storylines like "fighting the world for one person" or "secretly fighting to the death for the one you love" completely hit their sweet spot.

Upon hearing this, the Monster of Tokyo cried out in unison...

We absolutely have to throw a party to celebrate!

The great Monster actually agreed after hearing everyone's opinion.

They had developed a bond with Shuya, and this was a good opportunity to formally become his friend.

So, a few days later, under the tense watch of the police, Monster in Tokyo gathered for a banquet.

The Monster found a large venue.

The venue opened for entry in the afternoon, and there were no tickets; anyone who was Monster could enter.

Tens of thousands of Monsters and Half-Monster entered the venue one after another, with Half-Monster making up the majority.

Besides native Japan Monster, there are also many Monsters from other administrative regions.

Humanity only has Shuya and his ilk left.

As night fell, the place was filled with an eerie aura, drawing the attention of other extraordinary individuals in Tokyo, who were secretly alarmed.

Such a scene has only occurred during world wars.

You should know that Monster are very unruly, and it's rare for them to be able to gather together.

The number of demons that came this time was much greater than during the last battle with Shuya and the others.

Shuya looked around and saw that some of the Monster from outside Tokyo had also arrived.

The great Monster were all very wealthy, Shuya also contributed some money; at the banquet, all kinds of food and drinks were endless.

They were all quite heavy drinkers, Shizuka Hiratsuka mingled among them, drinking heartily.

The Yukinoshita Sisters were surrounded by female Monster chatting, and surprisingly, one of them was even a fan of Haruno.

Not many Monster dared to go near the Aoyama Sisters' territory; only some Monster families with connections to the Shinmeiryu dared to chat with them.

Shuya chatted idly with the great Monster who were in charge of organizing the event.

Great Monster are actually quite easy to get along with, provided you first manage to subdue them.

For example, the Oni Clan of the Shuten Family are generous and forthright, the snake demons of the Yamata Family are cold on the outside but warm on the inside, Great Tengu of the Oniichi, although arrogant, will talk to anyone he approves of.

The Spirit Fox from the Tamamo Family also speaks very pleasantly.

And those cat demons that revealed their true forms were absolutely adorable; Yukino was staring intently at them.

The banquet started off at a climax, with the Monster letting loose and having fun. Some of Monster revealed their true forms or Half-Monster Transformation, making the scene resemble Night Parade of One Hundred Demons.

Shuya always stayed with the great Monster.

Shortly after the banquet began, the great Monster, Shuya, greeted everyone and came downstairs without saying much; Monster don't like long-winded speeches.

Shuya apologized for his past rudeness, and the Monster generously forgave him, telling him to just ask if he needed Demon Power.

Since I can't beat him anyway, I might as well do him a favor.

Fortunately, Japan Monster don't follow the Western-style animal rights movement; otherwise, Shuya might have followed in Li Shuhong's footsteps.

Actually, Shuya also targeted Western Monster living in Tokyo, but he was only ten years old, still a child who didn't understand anything, so he shouldn't be afraid of being messed with by the little animal protectors (little monster protectors?).

We'll see who's afraid of whom then.

I'm still just a child.

Shuya sighed inwardly.

Shuya chatted with the great Monster, he began to inquire about things.

He raised his glass to the great Monster and said, "Brothers, could you tell me about the Monster forces in Kansai? I heard from Tsuruko and the others that Kansai is the Monster's stronghold?"

Upon hearing this, the surrounding great Monster fell silent.

A moment later, the great demon of the Shuten Family said with a wry smile, "Miss Aoyama is right. In the end, we Monster in Tokyo are nothing but losers."

"Loser?"

The Spirit Fox said with difficulty, "... We are all losers in the power struggle among family heads. But because of our strength, we were sent to the current capital of Japan to manage business. On the surface, it's said to be an important task, but in reality, it's no different from being exiled."

Shuya had heard that Tsuruko once said that Kyoto, as the former capital of Japan, was the gathering place of traditional forces, and that the headquarters of the Monster families were located there.

Tokyo is important, but it ranks second.

The Yamata Snake Monster advised Shuya, "If you want to deal with the Monster of Kansai, I advise you to give up that idea. They are much stronger than us, and they live in the Monster Domain, possessing the awe-inspiring power they have accumulated over the years. They are not easy to deal with."

"The Monster Domain? Is it the same as the Divine Domain?"

"Almost."

"That's quite troublesome."

The Great Tengu coldly replied, "Even with the Heavenly Demon Body, it's not certain that it could withstand it."

They gave a thorough explanation.

Shuya realized that the Monster in Kyoto were not scattered like those in Tokyo. Instead, they had designated territories to build their own Monster Domain and lived together in clans.

The Power of Awe gathered from all the Japan Administrative District will be directed towards the Monster Domain, for the cultivation of all members of the demon race.

The power to distribute strength naturally rests with the clan leader, who is also the strongest member of the clan.

The great Monster in Tokyo were all losers in the struggle for clan leadership. The victors feared their power, but killing them would only weaken their clan's strength, so they drove them far away to Tokyo to suppress the new capital, thus allowing them to exert their power.

As long as the clan leader holds the power to distribute the power of reverence, there is no need to fear that they will cause any trouble.

In general, the Monster (supernatural beings) of Japan Administrative District are divided into two parts: Kansai and Kanto.

The Monster of Kanto are all failures.

This is one of the reasons why Shuya and his group were able to hunt so successfully.

The power that the Monster have accumulated over the years is all in Kansai, all in Kyoto.

These great Monster were moved and immediately began to pour out their grievances to each other, creating a very desolate atmosphere.

No wonder they accepted Shuya so easily; it turns out this wasn't his first failure, and his pride had been worn away during his years of exile.

But it's not all bad. At least they live in prosperous Tokyo and have more access to new technologies than their counterparts in ancient Kyoto, making them much more open-minded.

They go online, watch TV, and use mobile phones.

Their own kind continued to live a traditional life in the Monster Domain.

Although I'm a lazy bum, I'm much happier.

It's a mixed bag, I guess.

Shuya listened to their conversation while observing the Monster reveling in the banquet.

A bold idea suddenly came to mind.

Shuya put down his wine glass and stared intently at the great Monster, his eyes shining brightly.

He said, "Don't you feel resentful?"

"Um?"

"Unwilling to accept it?"

"How could there not be?"

The great Monster spoke casually, but when they noticed Shuya's gaze, they couldn't help but pause in surprise.

Are you really that serious?

Shuya looked at them and whispered slowly:

"Didn't you ever consider the possibility of subordinates rebelling against their superiors?"

These words caused the great Monster to tremble violently.

It perfectly tapped into their inner childish fantasies.

Section 220, Page 204: High-Tech Training!

The bottom overcomes the top!

What beautiful words!

What a romantic idea!

Although Japan reveres Bushido and emphasizes loyalty, it is undeniable that they have always harbored a wild and unrestrained spirit.

Shuya's words easily stirred up the ambitions of the great Monster.

Countless historical stories about gekokujo (overthrowing one's superior) flashed through their minds.

But soon, the cold reality dealt them a harsh blow, jolting them awake.

They drank in silence.

"Easier said than done!"

The most intelligent Spirit Fox spoke first.

He saw through Shuya's plan. "Even if you try to provoke us into helping you, it's useless. You really can't win!"

"Well, don't rush, let me explain in detail."

Shuya wasn't embarrassed at all; he just smiled, poured wine for the great Monster, and then clinked glasses with them and drank it all.

He then chuckled and said, "Actually, in my opinion, you have a huge advantage!"

Shuten looked blank, unable to keep up with the conversation.

The other Monster understood the Spirit Fox's words and realized that Shuya wanted their help to attack Kansai.

But that's impossible, they thought to themselves.

They knew their own limitations, but Shuya; he knew there was more to this, so he didn't refute it for the time being.

"Advantages?"

The smartest of the great Monster, the Spirit Fox, is the only one who can keep up with the conversation.

He pondered for a moment and said, "The biggest difference between us and the Kansai Headquarters is that we live in Tokyo, right? You're saying that having access to new technologies is our advantage?"

"That's right."

Shuya said seriously, "You've seen how much technology has developed in Tokyo, right? You must know about the rise of the internet in recent years, right?"

"Of course I know!"

"Absolutely."

The Monster were overjoyed and wanted to exchange their experiences surfing the internet.

Shuya interrupted their flights of fancy, saying, "Also, you're all familiar with entertainment like movies, TV series, and animation, right... By the way, have you seen the show I made back then called 'The Art Academy'?"
