Around the altar, Suzuka lit a bonfire.

Controlling the simple Shikigami - that is, the Shikigami who appeared to be a man in a suit and the asura, Suzuka began to methodically place various tributes on the altar.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, Suzuka seemed to sense something and took out a talisman, on which a cluster of flames suddenly ignited.

Then, a war-style god armored ghost soldier appeared with a spider-shaped body of steel and an armored samurai upper body.

"Go, keep the guy in the way for me."

Receiving the order, the armored ghost soldiers began to wave their lower limbs and quickly ran towards the woods halfway down the mountain.

After sending out the armored ghost soldiers, Suzuka continued to set up the altar.

On a large plate painted red, there are white juan rolls bound with silver thread, a saddle horse, and a paper doll.

Next to it are drums, conch shells, bells and other ritual utensils.

Eventually, Suzuka let Shikigami walk away, and carefully placed the body of his brother, who was covered in charms, in the center of the altar.

"Brother, I will definitely resurrect you."

Taishan Mansion Sacrifice is a sacrificial ritual handed down from ancient times, and legend has it that it can resurrect the dead.

Back then, the legendary onmyoji, the Tsuchimon Nightlight, used this ritual to reincarnate himself as his descendants.

Although it is unknown whether the result was successful or not, and caused a great spiritual disaster in Tokyo, there are still countless Onmyoji who worship Luminous, believing that their Hokushin King, who is their honorific title, will awaken sooner or later.

Today, Suzuka of Dalian Temple, a national first-class onmyoji, the youngest of the twelve gods, does not hesitate to violate the yin-yang law formulated by the Yin-Yang Hall, and does not hesitate to be wanted. This ceremony should also be held privately.

"Dalianji Suzuka !!"

In the sky behind him, a teenager's angry shout suddenly sounded.

"No, you can't!! You must not hold the Taishan Mansion Festival!! ”

Suzuka turned her head and stared at the sky with cold eyes.

There, in the moonlight, a white horse of a divine steed was flying into the air.

On horseback, a man and a woman were seated.

It is none other than Tsuchigomon Natsume and Tsuchigomon Haruka.

"Why...... Do you want to come along? ”

Suzuka's immature face began to distort unnaturally.

"Why stop me!!"

"Boom ——!!"

The armored ghost soldiers, who had long been ambushed in the woods halfway up the mountainside, jumped high. I came to the white horse in the sky.

The scimitar-shaped giant spider legs swung towards Haruhu and Natsume.

Holding the magic sword that has been passed down from generation to generation by the Tuyumen family in his hand, Haruka, who has just become Natsume's god, subconsciously swings his sword to block.

"Ding ——!!"

The magic sword made a clear sound, and runes appeared on the blade, eliminating the power of the armored ghost soldiers.

If it weren't for that, the spring tiger would have fallen off the horse.

After Haruka blocked the attack of the armored ghost soldiers, Natsume immediately manipulated the Hakuba to increase his height.

The armored ghost soldier missed, and after falling back to the ground, it kept locking on the target of the Spring Tiger.

As soon as the white horse begins to descend, the armored ghost soldiers will immediately jump up and attack.

"No, I can't. With this guy here, we can't get close to the altar!! ”

"No way!"

Natsume sighed, and then called out loudly, "Beidou!" ”

"Beidou, Beidou?"

The Spring Tiger was shocked.

I will make up my mind to become Natsume's Shikigami, and the death of the Shikigami girl named Beidou who likes him is one of the biggest factors.

Now, why is Natsume chanting Hokuto's name?

Just when the spring tiger was startled, a dragon's groan suddenly sounded in the sky.

Chunhu looked up and was stunned. There was a golden dragon hovering above his head!

It is no more than 10 meters long, with a pair of deer-like horns and a long mane on its head. His body is covered in golden scales, and his short limbs are covered with falcon-like claws.

Although it is relatively small, no matter how you look at it, it is a mythical dragon.

"Asura!!

Suzuka saw Natsume summon the envoy-style god Hokuto, and immediately sent Asura out as well.

However, Beidou was left behind by Ampere Qingming. The guardian beast that has served the Tuyumen clan from generation to generation, a real dragon.

Even with the addition of Asura, together with the power of armored ghost soldiers, they can't defeat Beidou head-on.

It's just that Natsume can't fully use Beidou now. Therefore, Beidou will not fully carry out Natsume's orders on a certain distance.

In the face of the attack of the Asura and the armored ghost soldiers, Beidou did not solve it as Natsume said, but began to play with the two Shikami.

"This dragon...... I'm really curious......"

Chunhu smiled bitterly.

Fortunately, with Beidou's containment, Natsume and Haruka finally rode their horses to the altar.

"Dalian Temple Suzuka! Stop! The yin-yang technique of the soul is now taboo! It's going to attract an ominous one! ”

Natsume looked at Suzuka of Dalian Temple with a stern face.

Suzuka, who was still shrugging her head at her brother's corpse on the altar, sneered without looking back.

"—naïve."

"What!?"

"Do you think that's going to stop me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the spells covering the corpse fell off and danced.

The spells fluttering in the air attracted the attention of Natsume and Haruhu like snow, and countless spells pounced on them like fish.

Natsume hurriedly took off the peach bow and shot, but the arrows formed by the spiritual power only repelled a very small number of spells, and the remaining more spells surrounded Natsume, Haruhu, and the Shikigami white horse.

Natsume and Haruto, who had been knocked off their horses by the spell, were firmly controlled and lay face down on the ground.

The white horse neighed and broke free from the spell, turned and ran away.

"Now, you can't stop me."

With cold eyes sweeping over Natsume and Haruto, who were trapped on the ground, Suzuka turned around and bowed respectfully to the altar and high-fived.

"Onmyoji, Suzuka of Dalian Temple, only dedicate his body and mind to the king of Taishan Mansion, and the gods of the underworld-"

◇

Yakumo Mo, who could already hear the movement of the outside world, naturally knew that there was a battle going on here at this time.

【Taishan Mansion Jun? The gods of the underworld? 】

After hearing that the girl was going to resurrect her brother, Yakumo didn't care in his heart.

[Is it really so easy to resurrect the dead?]

If the dead can be resurrected lightly, then where will Shiki's face go?

Although Yan Luo coughed ahem, it was the Four Seasons Lord who couldn't control the afterlife of this world, but this did not prevent Ya Yunmo from being optimistic about the girl's behavior.

Suddenly, Yakumo Mo felt a powerful aura.

From the sky, no, from another dimension of this world.

[This is...... Divinity!? 】

Although the world is different, the divinity is the same, and Yakumo Mo, who had felt this aura in Yasaka Kanako, quickly judged that this was the true divinity.

[Taishan Mansion Jun - no, this divinity is not quite right-]

At the moment when the divinity appeared, Yakumo Mo's seal suddenly began to loosen.

[It's just right, you can use this power to break the seal!!] (To be continued......)
