384. What's Known as Adolescence Syndrome

Shuya hesitated for a moment, then said, "If... I forget about Mai- chan again halfway through, Yukino- chan, please remember to ask me to remind you."

"I know."

Yukino replied in this way.

Then Shuya set off.

He flew out of the school, and soon his figure disappeared into the sky.

He entered the Spirit Realm.

In the few seconds that Shuya disappeared, several groups of people on the ground simultaneously dialed their phones.

Soon after, the Supernatural Bureau received the news, the Monster received the news, and various extraordinary organizations received the news... Many people became nervous.

Although Shuya hasn't done anything strange lately, you have to remember... he was like that back then!

Then suddenly the Alliance was formed, they captured Mount Suzuka Seki Fortress, and finally even defeated Amaterasu.

Shuya undoubtedly knew that his entry into the Spirit Realm would cause misunderstandings.

But who can blame them when it comes to the fastest way to travel to the Spirit Realm?

After entering the Spirit Realm, he headed straight for Kyoto, his destination being the Kitano Tenmangu Shrine Divine Domain.

There are also Tenmangu in the Kanagawa area, but they are not the main shrines. For Shuya to visit one is tantamount to asking Heavenly God to come and see him, which is not very respectful.

He had a request to make of God, so naturally he had to be given full respect.

Shuya flew at breakneck speed, passing Mount Suzuka Seki Fortress without stopping, while Otake-maru was still petting his cat at the City Lord's Manor, completely unaware of what was happening.

When he arrived at the Kitano Tenmangu Shrine Divine Domain, the Heavenly God had already received word that a deity had guided him into the Divine Domain, where he met the Heavenly God in the temple.

Sugawara no Michizane was still dressed in his usual formal attire.

"You rarely come all this way, what brings you here?"

He spoke slowly and deliberately, with a cell phone beside him.

Yes, He's still the same as always.

He gestured for Shuya to sit down.

"You're like Heavenly God, to be honest, I've come here with a favor to ask."

Shuya adopted a humble attitude—that's what he said, but he actually never really flaunted himself in front of the Heavenly God.

Aside from the initial fight.

"Please speak."

The Heavenly God stroked his beard, looking somewhat curious.

"Heavenly God, do you still remember an actress named Sakurajima Mai?"

"Sakurajima Mai..."

The Heavenly God paused slightly, tapped the table, and began to recall.

"... I have a vague impression? I'm not sure."

His brow furrowed slightly. "This feeling... is strange..."

"Heavenly God- like, the truth is this..."

Shuya wasn't surprised to see Him like this.

As for whether the Heavenly God knew about Mai, they definitely did.

But He never spoke to her.

The Heavenly God were not close to her, but they were powerful enough that some of her memories remained.

Shuya then explained the whole story to the Heavenly God.

The Heavenly God stroked his beard. "Interesting."

"Let me see if I can find any information about her."

The Heavenly God activated his power and conjured a scroll out of thin air.

There is more than one Japan Administrative District named Sakurajima Mai, but based on the information provided by Shuya, He has identified a scroll.

"Oh?"

The Heavenly God opened it and exclaimed in surprise.

"?"

Shuya expressed his concern.

You can take a look too.

The Heavenly God showed him the scroll. "There is indeed a problem; the writing is very faint."

I've seen this kind of scroll before, Shuya I know it's written on with black ink.

The characters there were much thicker than they are now; on the Mai scroll, the characters were so faint they were almost disappearing.

"Huh?! This is..."

Just then, the handwriting faded even further.

The Heavenly God shook his head and closed the scroll.

"I can't watch anymore."

He said.

"..."

Shuya looked at the Heavenly God in a daze.

He pondered how to explain it.

He quickly said, "Do you know something? Fortune telling, divination, and predicting the future are not methods that should be used lightly."

How so?

I don't know much about Shuya.

"Because the future is uncertain, when you try to know the future, the uncertain future begins to take shape and slides towards the future you have detected."

"Things get more complicated if the future is known to be bad."

"Your deliberate attempt to avoid fate may very well lead you to that future."

In other words, when you gaze into the abyss, the abyss also gazes into you.

Shuya said, "So, the current situation..."

"Perhaps, similar to divination, your discovery of this matter accelerated the events surrounding her."

"And then I also saw... um..."

The Heavenly God covered his head.

"... Like Heavenly God? Could it be that you've started too?"

"... It seems things are getting serious."

The Heavenly God shook his head, seemingly lost in thought, and said:

"However, this situation also reminded me of some things."

Shuya listened without saying a word.

The Heavenly God said, "In the last two or three years, strange events have occurred all over Japan, all like the case of Sakura... um, the one you're asking for help with this time, inexplicable and bizarre phenomena."

"You can ask the Supernatural Bureau about this; they know more about it than I do."

The Heavenly God tapped his head as he finished speaking.

He looked at Shuya, a puzzled expression on his face, and asked, "Excuse me, but... why did you come to see me?"

Section 413, page 384: The so-called Puberty Syndrome

"... I just came to see what Heavenly God figure looks like."

Shuya paused for a moment, then immediately smiled and said, "I have something to attend to, so I'll head back first."

He bid farewell to the Heavenly God.

The Heavenly God rubbed his forehead and watched him leave.

Shuya flew away.

... I never imagined this incident would be so serious.

He felt no regret that his involvement might hasten Mai's disappearance.

If he doesn't intervene, there's no chance of salvaging the situation.

Given the power of Heavenly God, it's unlikely that he would forget Mai so quickly.

But He didn't know her at all, so there was no intimacy between them, which is why he forgot her so quickly.

"But, the Supernatural Bureau...?"

Shuya really didn't expect to hear this name at this time.

Although it is an important department, it doesn't have much influence on Shuya, and he won't be as afraid as ordinary superhumans.

He doesn't usually take the initiative to contact them.

But since the Heavenly God had given him a hint, he had no choice but to go and see for himself.

However, before going, Shuya had another thing to do.

Shuya somewhat shocked to witness how the Heavenly God's memories had been affected.

He suddenly realized something: if he forgot Mai again, he wasn't sure if he would be able to remember her.

He asked Yukino to remind him, but there's a good chance she'll forget.

He needs to write down the things he can't forget first.

After flying out of the Spirit Realm from Tokyo, he immediately bought a notebook and pen, found a chair at random, sat down, and began writing quickly.

Considering that forgetting Mai would mean losing access to her name, photo, and other information, he couldn't record it precisely.

It needs to be written in a slightly convoluted way.

This didn't stump him; he finished writing it quickly.

After he finished writing, he closed the notebook, looked up, and gazed around.

He didn't Shuya know where he was. After flying back to the Tokyo Spirit Realm, he just randomly picked a place and came out.

The atmosphere here is very unstable.

Several factions exist around him.

One group consisted of members from the Supernatural Bureau who had arrived.

One wave consisted of Monster that had arrived.

The other waves were extraordinary organizations from both inside and outside Japan.

They arrived early, but neither dared to disturb Shuya, so they remained in a stalemate.

Shuya stood up.

The members of the Supernatural Bureau and other organizations retreated in fear, spreading out to surround him.

The Monster formed a circle around him.

"Alliance Leader, should we eliminate them?"

A Monster roared menacingly.

Shuya glanced at him; there was no doubt he was an Oni Clan.

That's such a stupid comment; he didn't even need to guess to know.
