Chapter 52: Nii-san is Inuyasha

~8 min read 1,411 words

The words had barely fallen.

"Xian Jie, do you wish to unleash a slaughter once more?"

A voice, beautiful and seductive, one that made people unable to stop upon hearing it alone, emerged from the vortex along with a woman in red, her charm overflowing and her allure blazing.

The woman was beautiful; unlike the six-eyed humanoid monster, she looked no different from a human, the only distinction being that she was too dazzling, so enchanting that one found themselves in a predicament, unable to look away after a single glance.

"Your manner truly makes me feel impulsive."

Xian Jie gnawed piece by piece on the last bit of wild boar bone and meat, his mouth full of blood, his tongue, longer than a snake's forked tongue, coiled around the pork bone.

Upon hearing this, the woman smiled radiantly, her beauty displaying a hundred seductive postures.

"If you feel impulsive, I do not mind."

Between her explicit words, she extended a hand like slender green onions and slightly lifted her red robe, revealing glimpses of skin; if this were a pervert on a Japanese train, he would likely have already used both hands and feet.

Xian Jie merely smiled, shook his head, and turned his face away.

"Forget it; I am not unaware. I have seen your true form, and what you pull out is larger than mine."

It could be seen that deep within Xian Jie's six eyes flashed apprehension, a chill down the spine, and sheer disgust.

He knew very well how unbridled and ferociously terrifying a person he was in another world, and the woman before him was equally a cruel master; the key was that her cruelty was somewhat perverted.

"Let us go, see the scale of this low-level world, and then return to report to the Sacrificial Master."

"You go investigate first; I will find something to eat. To come to this world, I have not eaten for three days."

"Very well, then I will investigate myself."

"I suggest you eat something too; the native residents of the other world are very delicious. Since this is your first time investigating another world, you are not clear on this. The Sacrificial Master's calculations of world levels have never been wrong; if he says it is a low-level world, then it is a low-level world. Unleashing a slaughter here will not incur the Sacrificial Master's blame, and no one in this world can stop us."

Arakawa Ward, an apartment, the Kamikawa residence.

"I am back."

Kamikawa Mitsu entered, took off his shoes, and placed the vegetables bought from the market into the kitchen.

He looked around the house; Kamikawa Chie had not returned yet.

The junior high school Kamikawa Chie attended was quite far from home, so she would likely return a bit later.

"Let us cook first."

He went to the living room, turned on the television, and selected the news channel; Kamikawa Mitsu then walked back to the kitchen, tied on the kitchen apron, and began to cook.

Japanese apartments have a very convenient interior design: the kitchen and living room are connected, separated by no wall, only a sink counter, allowing Kamikawa Mitsu to wash vegetables and cook while watching the news on the living room television.

Very convenient, accomplishing both without interference.

Now that Arakawa Ward had undergone a sudden change, all major television stations, in their bid for ratings, had sent their best reporters to Arakawa Ward to secure first-hand resource information, even launching a news talk show specifically to invite scholars who study yokai to appear on television and explain things.

Kamikawa Mitsu washed the green vegetables and looked at the television.

"The government's consistent style."

The news currently broadcasting on the television was a press conference held by the government, specifically to issue an explanation to the public regarding the Yunhu incident in Arakawa Ward last night.

After the government spokesperson's lengthy explanation...

The general content was that Yunhu was still in the investigation stage, whether yokai actually existed could not yet be concluded, and the public was asked not to speculate rashly to avoid causing unnecessary panic.

Additionally, the government spokesperson stated that anyone posting improper remarks online or offline would be arrested on suspicion of causing trouble and spreading rumors.

Finally, the press conference concluded with the government stating it was doing everything possible to investigate, and once results were obtained, they would be announced to the public immediately.

A long while passed.

After dinner.

Kamikawa Mitsu sat on the sofa, watching television while listening to Kamikawa Chie chat about the amusing anecdotes from school today.

"Nii-san, if you say there are yokai in the world, then Onmyoji, Miko, and Kannushi must have the magical power to subdue demons, right? Oh, I really want to be a Miko to subdue demons and vanquish evil, just like Kikyo, hehe."

As Kamikawa Chie spoke, she began her girlish fantasy once more.

To this, Kamikawa Mitsu smiled.

"If you are Kikyo, then what am I, a Kannushi?"

Generally speaking, in Japanese anime, if a Miko has an older brother, that brother is almost certainly very awesome, either hailed as the number one young-generation Kannushi, or the future heir to a prestigious Onmyoji family.

"Kannushi?"

Kamikawa Chie blinked her large, clear eyes like water, recalling the violent scenes of Nii-san beating up hooligans.

It seems Kannushi and Onmyoji do not have violent tendencies.

Clearly, Kamikawa Chie felt that Kamikawa Mitsu's majestic image had nothing to do with the gentle, country-serving nature of Kannushi or Onmyoji; he was far more domineering.

The next second.

Kamikawa Chie immediately formed an image; in fact, regarding Kamikawa Mitsu's image, she had already assigned him one when she first thought of becoming a Miko; it was just that Kamikawa Mitsu had almost led her astray just now.

"Nii-san is definitely not a Kannushi; your image should be Inuyasha."

Kamikawa Mitsu: "???".

Although Kamikawa Mitsu was not Japanese in his previous life, he still watched anime; for a nationally known anime like Inuyasha, he naturally watched it and knew the identity of the Inuyasha his sister Chie mentioned.

"Is Inuyasha not a demon?"

Kamikawa Mitsu was at a loss between laughter and tears.

Her watery, lively eyes narrowed into crescent moons as Kamikawa Chie gave a sweet smile.

"Yes, he is a demon. I feel your image fits Inuyasha very well; you are very self-possessed."

Since the NH137 Incident, after spending time with Kamikawa Mitsu, Kamikawa Chie always felt that Kamikawa Mitsu was no longer gloomy; he had become sunny, domineering, more understanding, and very self-assertive.

This point was very similar to Inuyasha.

"A sister who is a Miko and a brother who is a demon; doesn't this combination seem strange?" Kamikawa Mitsu complained.

"No," Kamikawa Chie shook her head: "Kikyo and Inuyasha were lovers too, and their relationship was close, wasn't it?"

At the mention of the word "couple," Kamikawa Chie's face inexplicably flushed, the redness flashing and vanishing in an instant.

She hurriedly pretended to pat her face, concealing the crimson.

Then Kamikawa Chie raised a sweet, girlish smile:

"Sister is a miko, brother is a demon; what's strange about this combination? This is called loving and killing each other. What a wonderful combination! Only such a pairing is interesting."

Indeed, no matter which nation, girls have always loved contradictory pairings.

Whether it's Inuyasha and Kikyo, angels and demons, or the student council president and a student; basically, in anime, the male and female leads are often opposites, and after opposing each other, they fall for each other.

"Do I look like Inuyasha... a demon?"

Suddenly, Kamikawa Mitsu froze, instinctively looking at the script panel.

Today, when he went to school, he had already made the decision to exchange for a demon character; in that case, he truly counted as a demon, quite fitting Chie's guess that her 'Nii-san' was an Inuyasha figure.

Just as Kamikawa Mitsu was thinking, Kamikawa Chie asked him.

"Nii-san, you haven't said yet. If there are demons in the world, do miko and priests also possess the supernatural, having magical power?"

Kamikawa Mitsu was about to answer when a message appeared in the class group on his Line phone.

He focused his gaze.

Huh?

Immediately, he couldn't help but look up and respond.

"I don't know if miko and priests have magical power, but it seems a priest is transferring to my class, and it seems to be from a major shrine."
