I Don't Want to Be a Valkyrie

"What happened nearby?"

After inquiring about the situation from the two yokai, Yae Sakura's expression brightened.

It turned out two Great Yokai were fighting!!

Yae Sakura had always wanted to test her strength against Great Yokai to see what level she was at in this world, and the Great Yokai, being the apex existences in this world, were the best benchmark.

If she could easily kill a Great Yokai, then basically there was no one in this world she wouldn't dare provoke.

So, after asking for directions, and because Xia Ji was too exhausted from firing her cannon, Yae Sakura picked her up and quickly ran towards where the Great Yokai were fighting.

At the same time... she checked her previous gains.

[First Kill of a High-Level Yokai, Reward Crystal: 20]

[First Annihilation of Hyakki Gōdō, Reward Crystal: 50]

70 crystals, good... one step closer to 2400. But it was only the first kill reward; it seemed annihilating Hyakki Gōdō directly covered other rewards.

Still, it wasn't bad, the first-time rewards were quite high.

It's just... Yae Sakura was increasingly feeling that carrying Xia Ji around was inconvenient. If it were just herself, or perhaps a companion with combat power... at least enough to defend herself, she wouldn't be so passive.

This solidified Yae Sakura's intention to send Xia Ji back quickly.

Soon...

Carrying Xia Ji, Yae Sakura arrived at the battlefield of the two Great Yokai. An incredibly large monster was fighting a young girl with horns, dressed in an exquisite kimono.

The giant monster resembled a spider, its body seventy to eighty meters tall, which greatly shocked Yae Sakura.

It was just like a kaiju, except this kaiju's opponent was no longer Ultraman, but... a strange girl.

The height difference between the two... felt very odd.

"Lord Yae, that's... the legendary Tsuchigumo. Perhaps... we should leave quickly?" Xia Ji looked at the Tsuchigumo before her, extremely fearful...

The Tsuchigumo was a famous Great Yokai from legend, capable of destroying a city by itself.

Humans had no power to resist it at all.

"No need, this is my prey! Xia Ji, you hide well! I'll finish them quickly and take you back to the city."

Yae Sakura glanced around the vicinity, found a suitable spot, put Xia Ji down, and looked seriously at the two Great Yokai in front of her.

She wasn't sure if it was her imagination, but Yae Sakura felt the spirit blade in her hand was getting excited.

At this moment... Yae Sakura suddenly remembered that the records in the Yōki mentioned the Tsuchigumo was once worshipped as a god!

It was a divine creature! No wonder the spirit blade was so excited.

Evil gods were the prey of the spirit blade.

"Lord Yae..."

Xia Ji wanted to say something more, but she saw Yae Sakura's eyes turn scarlet, the same color as the spirit blade in Yae Sakura's hand.
