Chapter 87

Then, clenching her fists, she tapped her shoulders and arms, sighing, "So tired~"

Shiina Mahiru squeezed the Blessing information and let out a sigh of relief.

Although she wasn't as fast as Saeko and the others, at least she hadn't fallen too far behind.

"Alright."

Lin En clapped his hands. "Next, let's begin the subjugation battle against the Scorpio."

On the outskirts of the Tokyo Area metropolitan circle.

Lin En stood quietly with his Familiars.

Their field of vision was filled by the massive body of the Scorpio.

"So big!"

Kikukawa Shizuka widened her eyes, moved her small feet, and retreated behind Saeko.

Busujima Saeko glanced at her speechlessly, but didn't pay much attention.

After all, Shizuka was a [Healing Demon]; it was enough for her to honestly fulfill her duties as a healer.

She retracted her gaze and looked toward the Scorpio; her desire for slaughter was becoming slightly uncontrollable.

However...

Before that, let's clear out the small fry first.

Busujima Saeko looked at the Gastrea running at the front.

Her target was Stage IV.

Yotsuya Miko looked a bit distressed.

Her [Spirit Medium Demon] ability had miraculous effects when targeting spiritual creatures.

But she wasn't good at physical attacks at all!!

She felt that after this monster feast, she would probably have the smallest harvest.

Koto Yuko looked eager to try, her eyes filled with nothing but excitement.

Anyway, the Gastrea couldn't see her.

Seeing them getting restless, Lin En waved his hand forward. "Go!"

"Before us, there are no enemies!"

As soon as Lin En spoke, Busujima Saeko rushed out like a wild horse off its leash!

On the way, she slashed through a bunch of Stage I, II, and III Gastrea, heading straight for the Stage IVs!

Having switched to a Varanium katana, Busujima Saeko was like a god of slaughter!

If a god stood in her way, she would kill the god; if a Buddha stood in her way, she would kill the Buddha!

Tendou Kisara curled her lips and rushed out, not wanting to be outdone.

Her sword skills were strong to begin with; before becoming a demon, although she couldn't engage in prolonged battles due to her physical burden...

But relying solely on instantaneous bursts, she could directly severely injure a Stage IV Gastrea!

Now that she had become a demon, Tendou Kisara would naturally only be stronger.

Shiina Mahiru and Kasumigaoka Utaha also found their own Stage IV targets.

After all, everyone was an Intermediate Demon; they couldn't let Busujima Saeko and Tendou Kisara steal all the spotlight.

Only Yotsuya Miko looked around awkwardly, then grabbed Yurikawa Hana and said righteously, "Hana-chan, I'll take you to level up!"

"Eh?"

Yurikawa Hana was stunned for a moment, then said happily, "Okay, okay!"

"Finally, I can fight side-by-side with Miko!!"

Yurikawa Hana put her hands on her hips, full of energy, and pointed at the Gastrea in front. "Miko, let's go hunt that big guy!"

Yotsuya Miko followed her gaze, her eyelids twitched, and she laughed dryly. "That, Hana-chan, it's still too difficult for you to handle a Stage IV."

"How about we start with that one instead?"

Yotsuya Miko pointed to a slightly smaller Stage III on the other side.

"Eh?"

Yurikawa Hana blinked and asked suspiciously, "But, that one looks so small."

"It's already enough!"

Yotsuya Miko didn't wait for her to refuse and forcefully dragged her to find trouble with the Stage III.

On the other side, Koto Yuko floated in the air, swaying, occasionally picking up scraps and leeching experience.

Although the Gastrea couldn't see her, she didn't have the ability to eliminate Gastrea above Stage III in one go.

What's more...

Why struggle to gain experience when leeching was so comfortable?

Everyone in the Familia was working hard to accumulate experience.

Only one person.

Kikukawa Shizuka stood next to Lin En, waving her fists. "Everyone, do your best! I've already prepared plenty of recovery items for you all!"

Lin En's eyelid twitched, and he slapped her plump buttocks hard.

The crisp sound was pleasant to the ear.

Lin En said irritably, "You go grind for experience too!"

"Ugh..."

Kikukawa Shizuka covered her backside and reluctantly went to find trouble with the Gastrea.

Before long, sounds like *Lightning Strike!*, *Come! Let me kill to my heart's content!!*, *You're an enemy too!!* and so on echoed across the Gastrea battlefield.

Lin En observed for a while, and seeing that they were in no danger, he turned his gaze to the Scorpio.

Every step it took closer, the [Gastrea Factor Catalog] on Lin En's interface grew brighter.

Lin En really wanted to know what changes this skill would undergo when the Scorpio was annihilated.

At the same time.

After handing the Cursed Tool to Lin En, Isayama Yomi did not return to Kyoto immediately.

Although a Level 1 Cursed Tool did indeed require high-level personnel to escort it, it wasn't enough to warrant sending her over.

She had other missions in Tokyo; delivering the Cursed Tool was just on the way.

Cafe.

Sitting opposite Isayama Yomi was a petite and slender girl.

She wore a beret, gently covering her light golden hair, and her purple pupils were clear and bright.

Isayama Yomi took a sip of coffee and said, "Miss Goddess of Wisdom, please tell me the relevant intelligence regarding this incident."

"Iwanaga Kotoko, call me Kotoko."

Iwanaga Kotoko smiled gently, her demeanor elegant yet noble.

"Alright, Miss Kotoko."

Isayama Yomi followed suit, her eyes fixed directly on hers.

Iwanaga Kotoko sighed. "I haven't even had a few sips of coffee since I arrived, and you're staring at me with the eyes of someone interrogating a criminal. How rude..."

"Sorry."

Isayama Yomi said sorry, but the expression on her face didn't change; she continued to stare at Iwanaga Kotoko without stopping.

"Fine, fine..."

Iwanaga Kotoko raised her hands in surrender, then stood up. "Instead of listening to me talk, why don't you go see for yourself?"

Crossing through a membrane, an inconspicuous shrine came into view.

Isayama Yomi's eyes narrowed slightly.

Iwanaga Kotoko said, "When I discovered the abnormality here, I had already asked them to hide it."

Isayama Yomi raised her eyes, her gaze full of gravity.

Sky-high demonic aura!

And...
