The sky was overcast, the rain was heavy, and in the sound of the rain, a battle between people and monsters was raging.

"Shrine Maiden, hand over the Jade of the Four Souls!"

"Hand it over!"

"Hand it over!"

To be exact, hundreds of youkai surrounded a human girl dressed in a black and white witch costume.

In the face of so many enemies, the girl was unmoved, looking at the monster that roared the loudest with sharp sword-like eyes, slowly raising her arm, and then pulling her bow and releasing arrows in one go. Suddenly, the sharp arrow from the string was surrounded by a powerful energy, forming a powerful spiral storm that tore everything in its path apart!

Like a small mountain, the head of a giant monster tens of meters high was pierced, and its huge body fell to the ground with a bang, losing its vitality.

quiet

Quiescence.

This scene in front of me made all the yelling monsters grow up and their mouths can't make a sound.

Was that blow capable of being delivered by a human?

Is it from this delicate girl in front of you, who seems to fall to the ground when the wind blows?

The answer is yes!

But the youkai can't accept a human girl, even if she is a shrine maiden who is known for her strong spiritual power, the youkai still can't accept that she has the great strength to easily crush herself.

Isn't it supposed to be a delicious food for a monster or something?

So why does this human being have such a powerful force?!

The Jade of the Four Souls, by the way, it must be the Jade of the Four Souls!

This human witch is the guardian of the Jade of the Four Souls, so the Jade of the Four Souls must be on her! In this case, it is understandable that she has such terrifying strength using the jade power of the Four Souls!

That's right, this is the Jade of the Four Souls, which can give humans who are obviously just delicious food the Jade of the Four Souls with the power to fight against youkai, and I must get it. Got it! As long as I get the Jade of the Four Souls, I can become a real big monster, invincible, and invincible!

Such thoughts grew wildly in the minds of the demons, and the corpse of the dead monster did not frighten them, but made this group of monsters even more imperative to the Jade of the Four Souls!

"Kill, kill this witch, the jade of the four souls is ours!"

I don't know who started this head, but after having an example of taking the lead in rushing forward, the eyes of the other monsters turned red one by one. Rushed towards the shrine maidens.

There is no way to enter the heavens and no door, and the girl who is in a desperate situation still has that indifferent expression, as if nothing can produce a trace of fluctuation in her heart. She just kept repeating the action of drawing her bow and releasing her arrows, and if necessary, she would unfold an enchantment to protect herself.

Of the arrows in the quiver behind him, only the last one remains, but there are still three youkai. And these three monsters are also the strongest and most cunning existence among the many monsters.

The shrine maiden's arrows were only the last one, and none of them wanted to go first.

Because the consequences of going first are clear. Only the Demon Breaker Arrow pierced through his body and became one of the shattered corpses all over the ground.

The three youkai didn't dare to move, and the shrine maiden who had only one arrow left didn't move rashly, she just stood quietly in place. Ren Ping's rain fell on his head and slid down his body.

"Otherwise, let's go together! This shrine maiden must have been very tired after fighting for so long. ”

"Yes. And she only has one arrow, so if the three of us get on it together, we'll be able to finish her off before she can aim at us! ”

"Okay. Then it's decided! ”

After a period of confrontation, the impatient three youkai finally decided to launch the final general attack.

Legend has it that hundreds of years ago, a powerful shrine maiden named Tsuiko had the ability to extract souls and purify and exorcise demons. A large number of youkai in order to deal with her, including ghosts, dragons, earth spiders, and other youkai, so they combined to become the strongest youkai. In the long-term battle with this monster, Tsuiko was overdrawn due to physical strength and was finally defeated, so he used the most powerful strength to take away the soul of the monster, dissolve it into his own soul, and then release it out of the body, so Tsuiko and the monster died, leaving only the crystallization of the soul, which is the "Jade of the Four Souls".

The Jade of the Four Souls has a strong spiritual power, which allows the recipient to have a strong amount of power. It is said that the Jade of the Four Souls can also grant any wish, so for hundreds of years, the Jade of the Four Souls has been passed down in the hands of monsters and humans. Later, it was passed into the hands of the patriarch of an exorcist village, and in order to prevent the jade of the four souls from falling into the hands of the monster again, the jade was handed over to a witch with strong spiritual power, the bellflower to guard.

This delicate-looking, elegant and plain girl is the witch bellflower who guards the jade of the four souls and has strong spiritual power.

I heard that the jade of the four souls fell into the hands of a shrine maiden, and many monsters who despise humans came to snatch it, but they were easily solved by Kikyo. Over time, the youkai also realized that this witch was not easy to deal with, so they used a trick to lure her to the forest far from the village, leaving her alone, and then gathered a large number of youkai who wanted to get the jade of the four souls to beat her in groups.

The monster who thought he paid enough attention to her didn't expect it.,Still despise it.。 Hundreds of youkai died and only three remained, and as far as the eye could see, the forest was littered with the remains of youkai corpses. If it weren't for the fact that this shrine maiden's arrow was only the last one, needless to say, the three remaining youkai would definitely turn around and run.

paid such a big price, I have to fight, otherwise, if I am fooled once, the plan of inviting you into the urn will no longer work.

couldn't help but look around, the three monsters thought with palpitations, this is still her situation fighting alone, if it is in a human village, with the assistance of other villagers, not to mention hundreds of monsters, it is still unknown whether thousands of monsters can attack it!

No way, this shrine maiden's enchantment is too strong!

It's like a turtle shell, and the kind with rebound damage.

The last three youkai who were determined to leave Kikyo here moved, and rushed towards Kikyo at the same time from different directions in a triangle, and no matter which direction Kikyo's arrow shot, it would be killed by the youkai in the other two directions.

After the previous flip attack and temptation, these three monsters have already been able to grasp the strength of Kikyo's enchantment defense, if it is just one of them, even if you try your best, don't want to break it without two or three hits, but if the two join forces to attack at the same time, it only takes a moment to tear it apart!

Hey~ She didn't let go of the arrow, did she give up the useless struggle? Or was her spiritual power already exhausted, and she was just stalling for time by standing there for so long?

This idea had just appeared in the minds of the three youkai and was shattered by Kikyo's next action.

I saw Kikyo holding the arrow in one hand and holding it high.

The wide sleeves slipped off, revealing white, supple skin.

Of course, this beautiful arm could not attract the three youkai, but the arrow that was clenched emitted a dark purple light that they could not ignore.

That's a very strong demon-breaking spiritual power, no, this witch will die with us!

I'm a male monster who wants to be a demon king, how can I die like this!

The three youkai thought to themselves, and almost at the same time they unloaded their strength, intending to retreat back, but it was too late

The arrows in Kikyo's hand, which had gathered her most powerful power, finally exploded when they couldn't withstand the huge demon-breaking power.

The energy aperture spread outward, so fast that the three monsters were directly enveloped without even having time to react.

The moment it touched the aperture, under the erosion of the power of demon destruction, the three remaining monsters all turned into starlight and dissipated, and were completely purified!

Although the bellflower as a human will not be eroded by the power of breaking the demons, but the long-term battle has made the body empty, and the mental exhaustion is even more unimaginable, plus the method of blasting the power of the demons after the most lull Although the method of detonating the power of breaking the demons has solved all the monsters, she has also received a strong backlash, and within a few days, don't think about using spiritual power again.

Of course, it doesn't matter, and we'll talk about that later.

Importantly, just as she was destroying the last three youkai, she discovered that there was still a youkai hiding in a nearby tree. If it weren't for the fact that the scope of her attack was so large that the other party had to retreat and leaked her demonic energy, she wouldn't have found out yet!

Is that the end of it? It's good that I'm tired, so it's important to rest.

Ever since accepting the burden of guarding the Jade of the Four Souls, Kikyo has been fighting youkai almost every day. Too much killing caused her heart to grow colder and more tired. Able to fight to the last moment, she also fulfilled her duty and fulfilled her promise to the demon slayers.

Kikyo, who has no spiritual power, is numb in his body, and doesn't even have the strength to raise his arms, has sprouted into death in despair.

At this moment, the youkai hidden in the shadows appeared.

Huh~ This is!

Mankind?

A barefoot boy with black hair, black eyes, and a fiery red robe.

Kikyo was happy at first, and then quickly reacted.

No, he's not human. This impure demonic aura should be a half-demon. So what is his purpose? Is it also to get the jade of the four souls? What does this half-demon want to do if he wants to get the Jade of the Four Souls?

When he was dying, Kikyo himself didn't expect that when he met this half-demon, so many questions would pop up in his mind.

Perhaps, it's because this half-demon is very similar to himself.

Not recognized by humans and monsters.,The half-demon who struggles to survive between the two.,And as a human.,But it's always fighting with monsters.,Feared by humans.,It's all lonely!

Because of this loneliness, there is a resonance between the two.

Although he had a good impression of this half-demon at first sight, Kikyo still looked at the other party indifferently, "Half-demon, you are also here to snatch the jade of the four souls?" ”

"Huh~? The Jade of the Four Souls, what is that, I haven't heard of it, Uncle Ben doesn't know the way! ”

The black-haired boy said in an arrogant tone, but his pretended high-profile attitude, however, let the bellflower relax, even if the other party said that he didn't know the way and hadn't heard of it, she also subconsciously believed it.

In other words, it is the survival instinct hidden deep in her heart that makes her prefer to believe in the other party.

Not an enemy

Kikyo, who came to this conclusion, collapsed with weak legs the moment he relaxed. (To be continued......)
