Chapter 339: Ophis has disappeared.
‘This woman, she just came here caused chaos and left like it wasn’t her problem…’ Genji felt a headache since now he would have to fix all the mess she had made.
He must expel all these beings and close this alternate dimension that was created by a highest level Yōkai.
And mostly, he must deal with the Yōuki in the area. After all, with the sheer volume of Yōuki that this woman and her subordinates were emitting, he wouldn’t be surprised if all the humans in Tokyo could suddenly see the Yōkai if it wasn’t handled properly.
Bang, Bang!
“Hmm?” Hearing gunshots, Genji looked in the direction of the shot and saw someone pointing two revolvers at someone.
“Stay away.” Nero growled as her eyes glowed gold.
“…You managed to react, impressive.” Gyuki spoke while looking at his arms, which had two bullet holes.
‘What are these bullets made of? The bullets managed to easily pass through my hand.’
“Gyuki, you piece of shit, you’re making trouble again.” Shuten Douji growled as he looked at the corpse of the two-legged bear boy, at least what was left of him.
“That’s not your problem.” Gyuki licked his salivating lips.
“Tsk, you disgrace the race of Oni.”
“Don’t put me in the same group as you. Unlike you, I’m a true Oni.” He smiled with a big smile.
“Hah! A pathetic Oni is what you are.” Ibaraki laughed.
“Hmm?” Gyuki’s eyes gleamed dangerously.
“I wonder who was the coward that ran away in the last battle we had?”
“…That was a strategic retreat.”
“Yeah yeah. Keep telling yourself that.” Ibaraki rolled his eyes.
“You Know what? I’ll kill you first, then I’ll go after my snacks.”
“Oh?” Ibaraki’s hair seemed to rise and get sharper, his smile grew, and a killing intent exploded from his body.
“Let’s see if you can do that.”
The man with the razor tail was breaking out in a cold sweat as he felt the pressure on his body.
“…This man remains monstrous as ever.” He whispered in a low voice, and then two other men who had the same kind of tail appeared beside him.
“Leader, let’s get out of here.”
“Yes.” He didn’t want to stay in this place and watch a fight that could lead to his death.
“…” Genji sighed again as he took a step and appeared beside the Tengus twins.
“Aren’t you going to stop it?”
“…If he had threatened the two girls any longer, we would have stopped him, but now that it’s the two Onis, that’s no longer our problem.”
“Oh?” Genji’s eyes sparkled for a few seconds.
‘For those crows who don’t get into trouble as long as it doesn’t affect the human world to say that,’ Genji looked at the two little girls and heard them speak in low voices.
“Fox, let’s get out of here.”
“Yes.”
The girl in the Oni mask jumped out of a building window, and the girl in the fox mask disappeared, much like Haruna.
“Wha-…” Genji opened his eyes in shock.
‘A member of that woman’s clan?’
From what Genji remembered, only the foxes of that woman’s clan could teleport so efficiently; that was their main power, after all.
‘And on top of that, is she from the main clan? Is she a direct relative of Haruna?’ Only foxes born from the main family could use this power from an early age.
“…” Genji stopped thinking and looked at the twins.
“Who are they?”
“…” The male twin looked at Genji, he made a gesture with his hand and a thin dome surrounded the two, then he spoke:
“The little girl with the golden eyes recently arrived in Japan, and she’s kept a profile low for quite some time. We suspect she’s a Vampire… As she hasn’t done anything against Humans or Yōkai, we’re just watching her from afar. ”
“Now… The other girl is a problem. We have little evidence, but all of it points to her being related to Vlad Dracul Tepes. The King of Vampires.”
“…” Genji’s face darkened.
“Someone from the Royal Family, and especially a child…” Genji could feel his headache returning.
Recently, he had to go to Nightingale to meet the new Count, and he felt quite helpless in front of that man.
‘Alright, I had my power sealed, and I wasn’t in my territory, so I couldn’t use Inari’s blessing, but… What scared me about that man was the way he handled the situation, he was not a foolish man…’
“AH!” Everyone heard Gyuki’s voice.
“They ran away, you idiots! I lost my snack!”
“That’s not my problem.” Ibaraki gripped the club harder and approached Gyuki.
“Forget it, I don’t want to fight you, I just wanted to eat.”
“Coward.”
“Whatever.” Gyuki had known the man long enough to understand that he was only saying this to provoke him.
“Handle it properly, I don’t want any harm on those two.”
“…Remember…” Genji’s eyes narrowed at the twins.
“Don’t let the Crimson Nightmare repeat itself.”
“We know.” The two responded at the same time.
“What are you going to do with that Oni? Ever since he set his eyes on prey, he won’t stop until he gets what he wants.”
“…Leave him to me.” Genji disappeared from where he was and appeared in front of Gyuki.
“Oh… Genji-sama what do you want-.” Genji held Gyuki’s face.
“Forget about your prey…she’s not someone you should mess with.”
“Oh…?” Gyuki’s smile grew.
“Don’t test my patience.” A blue fire appeared in Genji’s other hand.
“Or I will ensure that you can never be reincarnated again.”
“….” The dangerous glint in Gyuki’s eyes changed to a look of fear when he saw the fire in the man’s hand.
He knew that fire very well. It was the fire of the Gods, a fire that was given as a gift to Genji for his work as a gatekeeper of the Gods.
He who judged beings capable of becoming Gods.
And if they were not worthy in his eyes, they would burn and have their soul destroyed.
‘Are they that important?’ Gyuki had never seen Genji so obstinate about something, and that only made him more curious, he needed to know who the two little girls were.
“…Okay, I won’t go after them.”
“…” Genji looked into Gyuki’s eyes, it was like he was looking into his soul, and all he saw was curiosity. He saw no motivation to chase the girls.
‘I should kill him to avoid problems… But that stupid fox will revolt against me because I killed his protege… Ugh.’ He felt a headache when he remembered a man with long red hair and who had nine tails just like him.
He didn’t want to create more problems than he already had. He had to call all his subordinates and prepare for Haruna’s challenge, and he had his job as gatekeeper to the Gods as well. Apparently, the number of idiots who wanted to become minor Gods started to grow after a few months, and he didn’t know why.
And there were also other problems that are coming from abroad.
‘Ugh, I need a vacation.’
“Don’t make me regret this decision.” Genji let go of Gyuki’s face.
“Ugh, your grip is as strong as ever.” Gyuki complained.
“Thank Kurama for being alive, you piece of shit.”
“I will.” Gyuki laughed.
Genji snorted disdainfully as he looked at the two remaining Oni, specifically speaking, he looked at Ibaraki:
“Don’t cause trouble, you fool.”
“Hahahaha~, that’s impossible, I’m bored!” The man didn’t have the restraint.
“Sigh…” Genji and Shuten Douji sighed at the same time.
Soon Ginji disappeared again as he reappeared in front of the twin crows.
“Let’s go. The show is over.” Shuten spoke to Ibaraki as he turned around and jumped in one direction.
“Yes.” Ibaraki looked at Gyuki for a few seconds, then turned to follow his leader.
“I have received information from abroad that Inquisition Hunters are coming to our country.” Genji spoke to the twins.
“…This is new, who are the individuals?”
“Senior hunters Jimmy and Thomas, and more importantly, a General Leonardo is accompanying them.”
“…a General?” The twins narrowed their eyes.
“Apparently, the Church is concerned about the rising tide of Demons from hell.”
“Do you know anything about this Genji-sama?”
“I don’t know.” Genji was as in the dark as they were. His job was being a doorman and Inari’s direct subordinate, and it took up all of his work time.
“The Gods or Kurama must know something.”
“Geh, Kurama…”
“I know, I feel the same way as you do too, but it was Inari-sama’s order, and as far as I know, he’s doing a good job…”
‘Inari-sama must know something, but she’s not telling me…’ Genji sighed to himself.
“And to think that Inari-sama would give such an important job to that man.” The woman spoke with an annoyed face.
“…The Gods need someone to do their dirty work-…” The male twin fell silent when he saw Genji’s gaze.
“I’m sorry, Genji-sama.” He quickly apologized and bowed.
“It’s okay, you’re not wrong about that either.” Genji sighed as he knew that in any pantheon, there would always be someone who did the Gods’ dirty work.
Genji snapped his fingers causing a sound reminiscent of glass shattering to echo out, then the red moon disappeared, returning to its natural color, revealing the humans below.
Genji’s face twitched a little when he heard the noises of humans, he had gotten used to it over time, but with his hellish hearing, it was quite irritating to hear the voices of thousands of people in his head.
And especially at the Shibuya crossing.
“Whoaa… As expected of Genji-sama… He purified the entire area.” Some subordinates spoke up.
‘Only a servant of a Goddess can do something like that with a snap of his fingers and not feel tired afterwards…’
He looked around and sighed when he saw that there were still some Yōuki energies remaining, then, with another snap of his finger, he purified the entire area, but there was still Yōuki left.
Specifically speaking, Haruna’s Yōuki .
‘Even that woman’s energy is persistent just like her.’ He thought when he saw that the remaining Youki was from Haruna.
Deciding he must get back to work, he looked at the crows:
“I’m leaving now, don’t forget to ensure the safety of those two. I don’t want a Progenitor Vampire in this country…” The moment he said that, his 9 tails fluttered up like a cat, and he also felt a shiver down his spine.
“…?” The twins looked at Genji with a strange look. Why was he looking around while looking for something?
“Did something happen, Genji sama?”
“… It’s nothing…”
‘That was just my imagination…’ The moment he thought about it, he started to feel like something was going to go terribly wrong.
‘I have a bad feeling about this…’
…
Back to Victor.
After training for some time with Pepper and Lacus, Victor realized that he should give Siena instructions, so he asked the girls to train with what he’d taught.
And then he walked to Siena:
“Come with me, Siena.” He kept walking as he passed her.
“Ugh, I was hoping you’d forget about me.” She grumbled.
He turned around and smiled, “…Never.”
“…” Siena’s body trembled when Victor smiled like her Mother, while she feared for her fate now.
Giving up on resisting, she started following Victor.
“Mizuki, when I’m done with Siena, we’ll go hunting…” Victor’s smile grew as he thought of the creatures.
“Okay.” Mizuki wasn’t intimidated since, originally, she came here for that.
“Before that, go talk to Commander Rose, and ask her for a weapon created here. Per Eleanor’s explanation, only weapons created with the remains of monsters work on the monsters themselves.”
When Victor saw Eleanor’s display, he quickly asked her several questions, and he found that to kill these immortal monsters,
You must be someone from Clan Adrasteia. After all, only members of Clan Adrasteia had the mutated ‘blood’ that had been obtained through several millennia of constant fighting and using the flesh of monsters as food.
It must be said that this was a natural process. To survive in this cruel environment, the Noble Vampire race had to adapt and created a variant, and that variant was the Adrasteia Clan.
They were Vampires, but at the same time, they were monsters.
And the other way to kill these monsters is as Victor explained to Mizuki.
“…In some strange way, it makes sense.” Mizuki said when she thought of the saying to fight poison, with poison.
Victor smiled when he heard what Mizuki said, “We’ll talk later.”
“Hmm…” Mizuki nodded as she seemed to think of something.
While walking, Victor raised his hand and caught the Odachi that came flying into his hand.
Walking to a secluded spot with Siena, Victor couldn’t help but think that there were more ways to kill these monsters.
For example, in the last fight, he didn’t use anything related to his Power over blood, and nor did he use Junketsu, his Odachi.
He just used his fists and his basic powers, which were already very strong.
‘In the next fight, I will test if my blood power can kill these beings, or if my weapon can too… It will be fun~.’ Victor was having a great time in this place.
Arriving in an isolated location with Siena:
“Siena, are you proficient in any weapons?” he asked as he turned to look at the woman.
“No, I just use my powers.”
“…” Victor looked at the girl with a wordless look.
But when he thought of the woman’s attitude of disgust towards humans, he could understand that she refused to learn any of the martial arts involved.
‘But I don’t think that would matter much to Scathach.’ He knew Scathach didn’t care about prejudice or anything like that. She just cared about efficiency.
‘She must have focused on her powers first because they were just as strong as me? Victor tried to deduce his master’s motives.
After some thought, he could deduce Scathach’s motives. To see if he was right, he would fight Siena without using powers.
Just as he was about to propose this to the woman, he felt his phone ringing.
“Wait.” He took the phone away from him and couldn’t help but stare at the phone in shock as he remembered where he was.
“…Does the phone work here?” Victor felt like patting June on the head, she created something very good.
Seeing Violet’s number, Victor felt weird, he didn’t remember giving Violet his number, but knowing his wife, he wouldn’t doubt that she put her number on his phone herself.
He answered the phone and said, “Violet?”
“Darling… Please remain calm, and listen to me.”
“…” Victor’s eyes change from kind to serious.
“What happened?”
“About a week ago, Ophis disappeared.”

“What?”
