"Ahem, cough, cough~"

Frail Rin leaned against the wall and walked towards the innermost residence of the shrine step by step.

"Ahem!"

Rin hurriedly covered her mouth with her cuffs, and she could feel the liquid coughing up.

The cuff was removed, and a black blood stain stood out on the white cuff.

The already pale face became even more sluggish, his vision was slightly blurred, and his little hands propped up the wall, walking step by step towards the direction in his memory.

Her body is good and bad, and it's not about medicine. Rin knew this best, when she was in the best health the year before last, she accompanied her brother and sister to the back mountain to see the cherry blossoms. In March and April last year, her health deteriorated sharply, and she vomited a lot of black blood, and she was barely decent until this year. Although you can't go out, you can do what you can at home.

But this time...... It's just at a time like this.

Rin has an inexplicable fear of youkai, and her only impression of youkai is that they took her mother's life.

Rin knew that her brother was a genius, and her sister often told her how her father complimented him. My sister said that she and her brother had the wrong birth, and that if the child named Sakura was a boy, it would be better to become the next Yae Priest.

But no matter how strong my brother is, can he be stronger than my mother?

Rin's originally godless eyes focused again, and he walked faster and faster towards his father's residence.

"Father~Father~"

"Rin!"

Yae Sakura, who had just come out of the house, exclaimed, and grabbed Rin, who was about to collapse.

The Yae Shinjo, who heard the voice, also walked out of the house.

"Father, brother...... My brother went to the youkai! ”

"Demon?" The eyes of the Yae God Lord shrank, "Where?" Which direction did Ji go? ”

"Ahem ~ I ...... I don't know. Rin was weak and frightened," said one of the villagers, who said that Nozawa had been attacked by a youkai, and his brother ran out with him. ”

"Nozawa?" The Yae Priest remembered the patrol member in his mind. He didn't care about the affairs of the village for a long time, but the jurisdiction of the patrol was still held tightly by him. In just an instant, the Yae Divine Lord remembered which squad Nozawa belonged to and which route he usually patrolled.

The Yae God Lord took the katana from the species, and the momentum on his whole body became a little cold.

"Sakura, take a good look at your sister."

The Yae Priest, dressed in black, ran towards the outside of the shrine, and when he saw the black shadow disappearing into the corner, Yae Sakura was inevitably stunned.

She...... It's the first time I've seen such an anxious father.

"Rin? Rin? Are you okay? ”

"I ...... I'm fine, I just want to sleep, and when my brother comes back, he must wake me up. ”

......

As a patrol team that has traveled around the village, Yaeji knows the routes of various places very well. The middle-aged man just now was talking about the Higashiyama Trail, which should be true, Nozawa's team usually patrols that area.

After entering the mountain, Yae Ji bowed down, and his left hand pressed the sword hanging diagonally from his left waist.

The Tai sword is longer than an ordinary katana, not to mention Yaeji, who is still in the development stage, and the length of this knife is a little too long for him to control.

Running down the trail, the mountains are full of dead weeds and trees, and only a few extremely tenacious bushes are still rooted here.

"Its belly isn't as hard as it is elsewhere! Find a way to cut the beast in the abdomen! ”

Nozawa's roar came from not far away, accompanied by the responses of other men and the roar of the wolf demon.

Yaeji, who was about to run to the battle circle, rarely calmed down, relying on the shade of bushes and other dead trees, and looked towards the battle circle.

A wolf, a giant wolf that is more than two meters tall and more than three meters long!

A strange purple crystal grows from the green wolf's eyes, and from the reflection of the sun, it is refracting pink light!

The front hooves and tail of the wolf demon have strings of long lines that look like gold running through them, and there is no doubt that those crystals and special long lines are symbols of the demon.

Yaju Ji didn't have the slightest fear, compared to the bear demon who had thrown outsiders at will, this so-called wolf demon was just a small scene.

Two meters high? It's about a head taller than Nozawa. Some huge mountain beasts are only slightly smaller than this wolf demon. No wonder it's just a team of patrol sub-squads that dare to fight this "monster" alone.

Yae Ji took his eyes off the wolf demon, most of the corpses scattered on the ground were ordinary wild wolves, but only one died on the patrol's side. As he continued to look into the distance, there were not many wild wolves, only a dozen of them, and some uneaten minced meat and white bones were piled aside.

Cloth torn into lumps or strips of cloth was scattered aside, and many wild wolves had a few rags hanging from their bloody mouths.

Those wild wolves bared their teeth and showed their most ferocious side in front of everyone. Wolves accompany the wolf demons to sneak up on the members of the patrol, leaving blood marks on their arms and other locations, even if they can't kill humans with sharp weapons.

Yaeji's face remained unchanged, and he squatted quietly on the side of the bushes, the smell of blood wafting from the field providing him with natural protection.

The right hand is looped in front of the abdomen and placed on the hilt of the knife at the left waist.

From the previous battle, he saw that the wolf demon's hair was extremely hard, and the sword slashed at it, but it only splashed sparks.

Except for the relatively soft abdomen that Nozawa pointed out, only the pair of wolf eyes were the most vulnerable.

There are also strange crystals unique to youkai growing above the wolf's eyes, which makes Yae Ji not know how to choose.

"Boom! ——”

In the middle of the field, Nozawa slashed together with the wolf demon's fangs with his sword.

Fragments of one long and one short shot out from both sides.

Nozawa's knife was broken, and the wolf demon's teeth were not good.

While the two were staggered, Yae Ji moved.

With the potential contained in this body, his body flashed with powerful strength in an instant, and Yaeji's entire person turned into a black shadow, and in an instant, he came to the top of the wolf demon.

The sword light brought by the slash swept between the eyes of the wolf demon, and Yae Ji, who turned back with his strength, rubbed the wolf's waist and fell to the ground, rolling with the momentum, easily unloading the strength.

Stunned for a moment, Nozawa shouted from behind: "Be careful! ”

"Bang! Boom! Boom! ”

The wolf demon first roared in pain, as if venting the tyranny in his heart, and following the feeling, the wolf claws waved at will, wanting to tear the human who had just sneaked up in half.

Yae Ji dodged back and forth, and when he saw the wolf's claws fall to the ground, he casually stepped on a small pit, and a cold sweat broke out behind Yae Ji.

This is going to give him such a time, not to mention turning into meat sauce, and it is still easy to break the bones all over his body.

As soon as Nozawa and the others wanted to sneak attack from behind, they were pounced forward by those wild wolves who were not afraid of death and stopped them.

"You're blind, and you want to hit me?"

Seeing the wolf claws emitting a little starry cold light falling from the sky, Yae Ji slashed the fourth stage with the help of Falling Sakura, and missed the wolf claw with the help of the falling cherry blossom, and then cut back to the third stage, and the strength of the arm burst with the strength of the wolf claw pressing down, allowing Yae Ji to pass under the wolf demon like a spring again.

Taking advantage of the situation, the tip of the knife swirled and stabbed into the wolf demon's relatively soft abdomen!
