Temperature, humidity, barometric pressure......

Plus evil spirits.

I don't know when it began, as long as the environment is suitable, some corresponding monsters will be bred in nature.

Yamahiko, the earth spider, the crab owner, a reverse sponge......

Those monsters have left many yokai legends in history.

And humans are always powerless in the face of those monsters.

Until......

Among humans, there are "ghosts"!

It's not a demon among youkai.

Rather, it is a person who has acquired the powerful power to transform into a ghost after extremely hard training.

Oni Shikigami works as a companion to gather information about youkai, and then uses a weapon made of oni stone to strike a clear sound to destroy them.

In order to distinguish them from the exaggerated legends of the monsters, the ghosts gave the monsters they had defeated a proper name, the Demon Dragon, and recorded the information of the Demon Dragons they had defeated.

During this period, some people who had been rescued by ghosts spontaneously united and established an organization dedicated to supporting ghosts-warriors.

The Warrior Organization is not only responsible for integrating the ghost's notes and passing them on, but also for analyzing and collecting information about the demonic dragon, providing on-site support to the ghost, and medical treatment for the ghost......

Gradually, they began to take charge of further research and development of the weapons used by the oni and the Shikigami companions.

Even, unite the ghosts scattered all over the place, and then unify the dispatch according to the law of the appearance of the demonic dragon.

To this end, the Warrior Organization has also set up branches in various districts across the country to support the demons operating in the corresponding areas.

According to the records of the Warrior Organization:

Around the demonic dragon,For some reason, there are always the same face of the boy and Ji.。

Before the demonic dragon grows up, they will take the initiative to capture the human being, and use the human as bait to feed the demonized dragon.

And, no matter how many times it is destroyed, it will reappear.

It seems like you'll never finish it.

In this way, for hundreds of years, the ghost and the boy and Ji, and the demon dragon, have been fighting non-stop.

Until modern times......

……

……

[Year 2005]

Kanto, inside a Western-style building.

There is a mysterious man and woman wearing kimonos and having faces exactly like those of the boy and Ji, who are experimenting......

To be precise, it was the man in the kimono who was doing the experiment.

They are the ones who manipulate Tong Zi and Ji to cultivate the Demon Dragons through black and white puppets behind their backs.

However, as the Warrior Organization grows more mature and the ghosts become stronger and stronger, they are constantly seeking ways to make the Boy and Ji they created, as well as the Demon Dragons under their control, stronger.

For this reason, the kimono man did many experiments.

This includes, but is not limited to, having him and the black and white puppet controlled by the kimono woman to feed the boy and Ji the bait of the "armor".

Using this method, he successfully evolved ordinary weird boys and demon queens into warrior boys and armor queens.

But it also bizarrely gave birth to a deranged boy who didn't attack people, but only attacked the demonic dragon.

This made the kimono man more cautious about the experiment.

After that, the kimono man used his own and the kimono woman's hair, plus other means, to create a pair that had never been seen before, combining all the abilities of the previous boy and hime, Super boy and super hime.

And Super Boy and Super Ji really lived up to the expectations of the kimono man.

Not only can they cultivate any kind of demonic dragon on their own, but they are also very strong, far surpassing the previous boys, Ji and black and white puppets.

It was only soon that the appearance of the Wood Spirit Forest made the kimono man and the kimono woman realize that the "big snake phenomenon" was coming.

It was a phenomenon in which demonic rays would appear in large numbers and go berserk.

The rampaging demonic spirits will destroy everything in their path like locusts in their crossing.

If you leave it alone, in the end, not only human beings, but even them will perish with them......

In order to avoid such an endgame, kimono men and women want to use the power of oni.

Therefore, they order Super Boy and Super Ji to protect the ghost.

However, what they didn't expect was that Super Boy and Super Ji, who were obviously just puppet creations, were born with self-consciousness and began to think about who they were and what the meaning of life was.

The abrupt change of absolute position caused a huge confusion in their hearts.

At the same time, there is also a great rebellion against men and women in kimono.

Just like the children of the human race who have reached the stage of rebellion.

They are not even half a year old, and in this state, the only clear thought is that they don't want to obey the orders of kimono men and women!

For this reason, they immediately went to attack the demon who had just finished fighting the demonic dragon.

The reason is the very simple idea of not wanting to obey the orders of men and women in kimono.

They lost.

Because of confusion.

Because of the shaking.

Because of that simple and childish thought.

They were injured.

Embarrassed and defeated.

But, yes......

They're just puppet creations of men and women in kimonos.

Those who disobey the orders of kimono men and women will not be tolerated by their parents like those children who are rebellious.

……

……

Seeing the Super Boy and Super Hime, who were supporting each other, flee in embarrassment, the kimono woman was about to chase after her, but was stopped by the kimono man raising his hand.

"Forget it, don't worry about it, anyway, as long as I don't feed them, they'll all die sooner or later."

As the kimono man said, the Super Boy and Super Hime, who are creatures, are not complete beings, and if they want to continue to live, they must regularly take a special "bait".

If they don't take it, their bodily functions will stop and they will ...... Die!

The kimono woman glanced at the kimono man, lowered her eyes, and gave up her intention to pursue.

Then, she looked at the backs of Super Boy and Super Ji supporting each other and leaving, and sighed:

"I didn't expect them to develop a self-conscious ......"

At this point, she was silent for a moment, and then, I don't know whether it was pity or sarcasm.

"It's pathetic."

Hearing this, the man in the kimono didn't speak, but his face was tense and his eyebrows were tightly locked.

……

……

Just as the kimono man expected, after escaping, Super Boy and Super Hime's body not only did not improve in the slightest, but deteriorated at a speed visible to the naked eye.

I didn't take the "bait" for a long time, and I was seriously injured, and my energy consumption was serious......

In the end, Super Ji's body couldn't bear it at first, and she fell to the ground, completely losing the strength to walk.

Seeing this, Super Boy immediately squatted in front of Super Ji, and his worried hands tightly grasped Super Ji's shoulders.

"Hey, what's wrong with you? Cheer up! ”

With heavy eyelids and a gradual collapse of consciousness, Super Ji already has a premonition of her demise.

Therefore, she used her last strength to send her wishes to the Super Boy and entrust her will.

"To find ...... That's the answer. ”

Find the answer to ...... "What is me?"

Hearing this, Super Boy also had a premonition, and immediately hugged Super Ji hard, wanting to keep Super Ji in his arms.

However, the miracle did not happen.

In the next moment, Super Ji died in the arms of Super Boy, and her body was scattered into a pile of ashes.

Next, fate showed its cruelty and impermanence to the fullest.

Because, the super boy's body also began to collapse little by little.

He's going to die, too.

"Ah——!!!h

Unwillingness, anger, confusion, resentment, fear...... Let the super boy can't help but roar.

And the end of his death in this roar is the future he has destined......

That's how it should be.

Dadada——!

Suddenly!

Everything is still.

Only the illusory sound of the clock hands moving resounded and stopped.

Naturally, the progress of the super boy's body collapse also stopped with the advent of the stop realm at this time.

"I like you very much."

A middle-aged man dressed in purple, holding a watch of an alien knight with a hideous ghost head, stopped in front of the super boy.

"So, let me avenge you and give you a special power."

[Hibiki (Hibiki)! 】

The man smiled wickedly, pressed the activated alien ghost watch into the super boy's body, bowed his head slightly, and announced in his ear in a low voice.

"I'm not going to ask for your consent."

[Hibiki (Hibiki)! 】

The sound of the special effects fell, and the dark dense lines suddenly rushed out of the super boy's body, re-restraining his tattered body, and then, turning into a hideous ghost armor burning with deep dark flames, dressed in his body.

The time stop is lifted.

Immediately, the evil ghost immediately roared uncontrollably to the sky.

"Roaring ——!!"

The terrifying roar of the ghost echoed over the forest for a long time, hovering endlessly.
