"Roar~Hmm...? (What's that moving?) ）”

Erli heard the commotion in the distance and pulled Purple next to her. The papyrus-colored purple had just picked up a rune stone and was observing.

The shopkeeper couldn't make out its appearance or form, except for the sound of Suosuo coming from under the fat cloak, which from a distance looked like a large rag standing in the air.

"Go check it out, shopkeeper, and leave this first."

Purple lowered her voice very low, and her tone was also a little lower, more of a neutral feeling, and no one could hear it except for these three youkai.

“……”

The cloak shook deliberately, signaling that it heard Purple's words.

In the eyes of other youkai, it seems that a faceless youkai and an invisible youkai communicate too much to be in harmony, and they don't know how they communicate to achieve the result.

……

"Interesting humans."

After the two watched the battle between the man and the demon, Zi first confided in his evaluation.

"It's similar to the Scorpion Youkai... Aren't you afraid that this human will come out of here to deal with him? ”

Erli watched the elderly Ruoshan Yu leave, thinking in her heart, and Zi saw that Erli did not react, so she looked at her.

"What's wrong? Beautiful? ”

“…… Roar~ Hmm... Hiss (this human... I have some impressions... ）”

"Impressive?"

Following Erri's gaze, Purple also looked at the place where the old man had left.

……

"Stop."

Wakayama feathers blocked the young man in a dead end, and there didn't seem to be many youkai moving around.

He was ready to snatch the relics from the young man's hands directly.

"Human, do these two things make sense to you?"

"It doesn't do anything to you monster, give it to me."

"Hahaha, I don't think so."

The young man clapped his palms, it seemed to be some special witchcraft, the movement was not big, and the voice was not small.

"Something that's important to you, so it's important to me as well.

After all, I'm going to get more value, aren't I? ”

"Youkai, I don't have time to mess with you."

Although the strength of the pill force is not as strong as his, but in front of everyone, speed alone is not enough. But for such a little monster, his strength can be snatched away calmly and then leave here quickly.

The young man, however, shook his head, raised his hands, and gestured to surrender.

"I don't have time... So, I made a bid.

Two demon stones. ”

“…”

Ruoshan Yu frowned, what is this monster going to do?

The young man smiled happily and continued.

"I'm not a youkai, or rather, I don't quite think I'm a youkai, I still know a little bit about human things.

Fighting wits with those youkai, I don't think you will deliberately spend too much time here, after all, it is not a safe place.

But I'm also a youkai who can't afford to be early, so it's nothing expensive.

For a human like you, two demon stones can still take out your hand. ”

"Hmph... You've won. I don't want to see you again, though. ”

If Yama Yu doesn't want to cause trouble because of something else, the longer he stays here, the more likely he is to get into trouble, so he said to this monster fiercely.

"Me too... But if you do, I hope the next time we see you is here.

After all, I can't shake your strength. ”

The two demon stones were handed over, and the young man quickly grabbed them, and then handed over the amulet and the knife that was rusty, with many gaps, and stained with blood.

The old man turned around and saw a lot of monsters watching here, not knowing whether he was afraid of something or simply watching the excitement. Because the previous palm blow carried a lot of demonic power, it attracted all the nearby monsters.

However, these were secondary, and Wakayama saw something that interested him.

And that thing had to make him stunned.

There's a conspicuous monster in the group of monsters, and if you're not mistaken, it's the rumored white-haired red-eyed monster.

Its hair was scattered haphazardly, stiff and blue, its eyes glowed red, and there was a slit on its head that resembled an eye. But the most conspicuous, and the most dominant part of this monster's face, is its mouth.

If it's the appearance of the rift girl, it's not comprehensive, it's more like a rift on the basis. His jaw was split in half, as if it could be spread out at will, and his burnt teeth were stained with blood, and even a little bit of flesh could be faintly seen.

These are nothing, exorcists who have been engaged in it for more than thirty years, almost forty years, naturally there will be nothing when they see this, but at a glance, what they see is something that does not make him so happy.

It was a peculiar knife, and it was on the back of a youkai, and he had only seen this decoration a few times, and he had seen it from a man.

Alice's Sabre.

This youkai ...... Could it be that it killed Alice? Or rather...

It's even worse... The basic body of this monster is very similar to Alice's, could it be... Possessed youkai?

“…… Roar (who?) ）”

Erli, who was targeted by Ruoshan Yu, naturally discovered this vicious eye. I stared back, but found that it was this old man.

Or does it sound familiar, could it be the exorcist who crusaded against me before? But I haven't shown much of my appearance, let alone the way I look now?

Maybe it's similar to the rumors? So it was simply hostile?

In Ruoshan Yu's eyes, the monster glared back, and it was very unkind, as if it was provoking, and it was not mixed with anything else.

“…… Hiss~ (Gone.) ）”

"Hmm."

Seeing the old man's expression, Zi also felt that he should not mess with this human for too long, in case something went wrong.

The two turned around and disappeared into the group of monsters, and when Wakayama saw this, he hurriedly shouted.

"Wait!"

A brisk step, from the place where the confrontation just now, rushed directly to the place where the two monsters were standing just now, and most of the monsters around them didn't react yet, they just felt a strong wind rushing in front of them.

However, these two people were passed away in a flash, and they were left with only the bustling streets, but there were no two conspicuous monsters.

“……”

Damn it.

Tightening his grip on the weapon and amulet in his hand, he cursed secretly.

……

……

……

The two stepped out of the gap and returned to the shop they had come from.

"Be careful, Leigh."

"Roar——! (Know)"

Then, they picked out a few things, basically runestones and stuff. Although I wanted a magic weapon related to the Taoist priest, the price was expensive, so Zi Zheng bargained with the shopkeeper.

Ellie felt that her tongue was not so good, and decided not to go up and make trouble. As she was surveying her surroundings, she saw a familiar figure.

"Roar——! (Whoa!) ）”

The tengu girl in front of her was holding a naginata, and the knife had a lot of knife edges on it; She also carried a lot of packages on her back, which contained a lot of heavy objects, and the bells clanged with every step; There was a purple gourd on his waist and a ruler from nowhere.

Hearing Ellie's roar, the girl turned around, but when she saw Ellie as she was now, she only felt inexplicable and disgusting.

Is this monster calling me?

With one glance, a second, she walked away.

"Hiss~ Roar! (Wait!) ）”

Seeing that the tengu girl didn't react, Erli ran straight over.

And Ri Luo Yuan saw that this thing still ran over, and suddenly felt creepy, she didn't want to be ruined by such a monster to ruin her clothes and mood.

"Who are you!?"

She shouted angrily, but when she saw the monster getting closer, she realized that the knife on her back was a little familiar.

Where did you see it? Ellie?

But this is what it looks like???

It can't be the real face, right?

"Roar~(儚!) … ）…

Roar! Woo——! (That's right!) Wait! ）”

She hurriedly pulled the girl to the side of Purple, and only then did she realize that although she couldn't recognize this monster, she could recognize Purple's appearance, and although she didn't have a face, there was no difference in other places.

"You are..."

"Rirain?"

Purple was a little surprised to bump into the tengu, but she still communicated with the faceless youkai in front of her.

"Hmm~ Roar ha-(Purple?) Let's get rid of my restrictions first)"

“………

Yes? Just tear off the mask. ”

It seems that they are using the gap, or some other means, the two demons seem to outsiders to just stare at each other, and suddenly heard Erlie's scream, she was stunned for a while, and did not react.

"Roar! (Got it!) ）”

She followed her hand, and although she couldn't see the place at all, she still felt a crack, so she tore off the mask smoothly.

The face suddenly vanished, the cracked mouth and eyes disappeared, the immature white face was suddenly revealed, and the skin also regained its elasticity and complexion.

The mask in his hand has also turned into a simple papier-mâché mask, and it is impossible to see what it looks like has just turned Ellie into a demon.

"Ahh Looks like this mask is pretty good, even you've been fooled. ”

“… If it weren't for the knife behind your back, I wouldn't really recognize you. ”

The slightly embarrassed Tengu girl touched her face, she was a little rude just now, and she thought that the prototype of a little Lori like Erli was like this, and she was shocked.

But in the blink of an eye, the girl checked Erlie's desire line by the way.

"Anything unusual lately?"

She stirred in the air, spreading the lines of Ellie's desires, observing the black desires. Since the contents cannot be altered, eliminating the "controlled" desire to kill is only a palliative solution.

"Can it be barely suppressed, maybe it has something to do with my own physique?"

"I hope you owe us a lot of favors."

The tengu girl was obliged to help her break up the black lines and split them into more than a dozen parts, so that they could not be united for the time being, so she put them back together.

The eyes were back to their previous blue, but it was obvious that this time they were not as thorough as before, and they were still stained with a little blood.

"Well... I don't want to. By the way, what are you doing here? ”

Feeling a lot lighter inside, she shrugged her shoulders and put on her mask again.

"Oh? It's a friend to help me fix my knife. ”

“… Who is it... Roar—"

"It's an interesting human being."
