Demon Hunter and His Cabin
Chapter 590 - Chapter 590 Chapter 527 Aoki Shrine_2

Chapter 590: Chapter 527: Aoki Shrine_2 Chapter 590: Chapter 527: Aoki Shrine_2 She was wearing a traditional light-colored kimono, her figure tall and straight. Under the sunlight, she seemed even more beautiful than the cherry blossoms behind her.

“Is it her?”

Higurashi Chika was slightly taken aback upon seeing the photograph.

“Do you know her?”

Higurashi Chika shook her head.

“No, I’ve just heard of her. She was my senior when I was still in school, I remember her elegance from back then.”

“I didn’t expect…”

Higurashi Chika flipped to the second photo and was faced with a fierce, ugly visage. Roger had to admit that the ugliness of this face was even beyond some of the monsters he knew.

“How did she become like this?”

Higurashi Chika asked softly.

“Who knows.”

Aoki Kazuo answered casually, while Roger didn’t speak, only giving Aoki Kazuo a silent glance.

Young man, you have no idea what question you’ve just answered.

You won’t have a chance now.

“Although she’s a White Prajna, you won’t have any problems dealing with her with your strength, but you still need to be cautious. She’s not a newly formed minor monster; this woman has already killed several people.”

“Two of them were streetwalkers like her, and one seems to be a client of those two women.”

“A fat, big-eared middle-aged man.”

“Forget it, I won’t show you his photo. That fat man died a horrible death, with all his innards scooped out clean.”

“When his body was found, the heads of the other two women were stuffed into his stomach.”

Aoki Kazuo pursed his lips, “These guys are too much, Deer Horn Area is under the jurisdiction of our Aoki Shrine, I must resolve this threat tonight.”

“Did you find his location?”

Higurashi Chika asked.

Aoki Kazuo nodded, then shook his head.

“That guy shouldn’t have killed the shrine’s Onmyoji, the soul of the deceased Onmyoji left a mark on him. I’m prepared; as long as he shows up tonight, I will definitely be able to find him!”

“When the time comes, I’ll deal with the big one, you deal with the small one. We’ll work together to completely eliminate this monster.”

Aoki Kazuo was full of excitement, in contrast to the cool expression on Higurashi Chika sitting opposite him.

“I hope you’ll reconsider.”

Aoki Kazuo glanced at Roger.

“He’s my student, he needs experience.”

Higurashi Chika lifted her head, and Aoki Kazuo first was stunned, then his face showed an unmistakable surge of joy.

“You should have said so earlier.”

He laughed heartily, looking at Roger with a bit more warmth in his eyes.

“Just stepping into the ranks of cultivators, you’ve found a good teacher.”

Aoki Kazuo slapped his thigh, “You must work hard. The Guardian Spirit of the Autumn Water Fraction is very powerful, possessing the ability to extract Everworld, which is advantageous in battles against monsters.”

“The monsters we usually see are just one of their avatars in the current world, while some are the evil thoughts of ordinary people disturbed by the Everworld.”

“The truly powerful monsters are hiding in Everworld, and we can’t harm their true bodies. Killing their avatars in the current world is merely a stopgap.”

“But these creatures can continuously draw power from their main bodies in Everworld. If you have the power to extract from Everworld, you can cut off this energy channel, significantly weakening their strength.”

Aoki Kazuo posed as a senior, “Work hard to congeal your own Guardian Spirit as soon as possible.”

“You’re also welcome to visit our Aoki Shrine sometime. Then, I’ll let you witness our shrine’s inherited Guardian Spirit.”

“Divine Deer.”

Looking at Aoki Kazuo’s proud expression, Roger nodded while asking, “Aoki-kun, may I boldly ask you a question?”

“Go ahead.”

Aoki Kazuo gestured with his hand.

“Have you ever read a book called ‘Divine Sculpture Companions’?”

“Divine Sculpture Companions?”

“Is it an Onmyoji Technique?”

“From the literal meaning, it seems it could be a kind of Guardian Spirit?”

Aoki Kazuo paused, looking at Roger with confusion.

“It seems you really haven’t, huh.”

Roger nodded meaningfully. In this parallel world, he really didn’t know if the book ‘Divine Sculpture Companions’ existed.

Also, young man, who gave you the confidence that a teacher and student couldn’t possibly be together?

Roger smiled and withdrew his gaze, while Aoki Kazuo scratched his head, not understanding.

“It’s settled then.”

After setting the time and place to meet, Aoki Kazuo kept drinking tea, but Higurashi Chika sitting opposite him remained silent.

Roger casually looked out the window.

How could there be bugs in this season?

It wasn’t a bug after all, the leaves’ veins were plentiful, could one glean a type of swordsmanship from them?

Pot after pot, Aoki Kazuo had no idea how much water he had drunk, this strange, frozen atmosphere lasted for a very long time.

Finally, Aoki Kazuo could no longer sit still and got up to leave.

Arriving outside the gate, Aoki Kazuo climbed into a stretched black limousine, Roger noticed that the driver was a woman with a beautiful appearance.

Her expression, however, was somewhat stiff, and her complexion terribly pale.

“Aoki-kun is not a bad person, although he does have some… special ideas, but after I’ve explained them, he won’t deliberately make things difficult for you,”

Standing side by side at the doorway, Higurashi Chika suddenly spoke.

“I can see that.”

Roger smiled, when Higurashi Chika’s cool voice came from next to him.

“I’ve read that ‘Divine Sculpture Companions’ you mentioned.”

Startled, Roger instinctively turned his head.

This was awkward…

As several thoughts raced through his mind and Roger was at a loss for words to explain, he heard Higurashi Chika continue,

“This idea is worth encouraging.”

“What?”

Roger was stunned and in that moment, he even suspected he had drunk too much water and been poisoned.

What was this all about?

“It’s good that you have this idea, I’m glad you think this way, keep up the good work!”

“I look forward to that day coming.” After saying that, she patted Roger on the shoulder and turned to leave.

Leaving Roger alone, disheveled in the wind.

“What just happened?”

“Wait a minute.”

“Are we talking about a book?”

“There isn’t really a Guardian Spirit called Divine Hawk, is there?”

Roger thought to avoid a misunderstanding, it was necessary for him to actually find and read this book.

A Sunrise version of ‘Divine Sculpture Companions’?

At that moment, Higurashi Chika’s voice came from afar.

“Come to the Training Ground, we need to do some preparations.”

…

Night fell.

In the Deerp Horn Area’s central building.

Whistling winds at the rooftop’s apex made the night especially cold, and due to the temperature, there were significantly fewer pedestrians on the streets than usual.

Aoki Kazuo wore a blue Hunting Garb, his head free from any unnecessary stuff, he stood at the railing’s edge, the cold wind stirring his garment, Spiritual Power flowed around him.

If paired with a graceful visage and a head of long hair, he truly might bear an air of Transcendent otherworldliness.

“Still no response?” Higurashi Chika inquired.

The young girl donned a black Samurai Clothing, not of a traditional style, but one modified by modern artistic aesthetics.

Crisp and clean, it tucked in her tall figure tightly.

Today, Higurashi Chika carried not the wakizashi she had brought to Ai Asami’s house last time, but the weapon she worshiped before her Shrine.

Shuusui Ijin.

A beautiful name, but gripping the weapon in her hand, a grim resolve spread across Higurashi Chika’s face.

“Don’t worry, we need to be patient.”

Aoki Kazuo carelessly opened the Folding Fan in his hand; standing beside him was the woman who had driven for him during the day.

“Aren’t you concerned he’ll run off to another area?”

An idea popped into his head, Roger asked.

“Why worry?”

Aoki Kazuo looked puzzled, “If he goes to another area, the shrines there will take care of it, which actually saves me a lot of trouble.”

Roger couldn’t help but grin.

Could this be Sunrise’s secret weapon to solve demographic conflicts?

This regional management method was indeed hard to sum up in one word.

Pros and cons, I suppose.

Just then, a red light suddenly flashed across the distant sky, Aoki Kazuo’s expression changed, and he closed the fan in his hand.

“Zhi, go take a look.”

As his words fell, the woman beside him leaped over the railing, this woman seemed as Light as a sheet of paper, and with the night breeze, she shot off at an extreme speed!

Surrounded by a green aura, a pair of vague Deer Horns appeared behind Aoki Kazuo, his gaze fixed on the distance.

“It has begun.”
