I Refuse to Be a Valkyrie!

"Uh..."

After thinking for a moment, Mei reached out again. Under Yingcao's nervous gaze, she placed her hand on her head. This time, Yingcao did not retreat.

Little Yingcao's head... she got to touch it. It felt just like touching the Academy Head's head.

"Yingcao..."

After stroking her for a while, Mei withdrew her hand and looked seriously at Yingcao in front of her.

"Yes."

Hearing Mei call her, Yingcao hurriedly responded.

"Do you know where there's a human town nearby?" Having only just arrived, Mei needed to learn some basic information about this world.

All Mei knew now was that this world was mainly the world of Nura: Rise of the Yokai Clan, set during the late Sengoku period.

That meant it should be the generation of Nura Rikuo's grandfather, Nura Nurarihyon. She wondered whether Nura Nurarihyon's Hyakki Yagyō was complete yet, or whether the Thousand Year Demon Capital storyline had begun.

None of that was clear...

And most importantly, she had no idea where she was.

"A human town? I... I don't know. I've never gone to a human village."

Yingcao shook her head, feeling utterly useless. Would the human in front of her come to dislike her? Would she slowly abandon her?

"All right! Looks like we can only search slowly."

But that was fine. There was no need to rush. This world was practically a vacation.

Even the strongest yokai would not be her match, especially not against a Valkyrie who wielded the Divine Key and the authority of a God Slayer.

Mei discovered that the authority protecting her soul had indeed not disappeared just because she had become Mei, just as Ai-chan had said. She could use it perfectly in this world as well.

And... after being optimized, that authority had become even more flexible.
