Chiba City Center.
Supernatural Disaster Countermeasure Bureau.
"Calling headquarters, Region 036 has an anomaly... Calling headquarters, Region 036 has an anomaly. Observed as a random black hole phenomenon. Based on ghost energy detection, the likelihood of a Class B Disaster is 99%!"
"Chiba Branch requests support!"
In this solemn setting, the beautiful communication officer anxiously contacted headquarters.
"Hello~."
A gentle, playful voice with a big sister vibe emerged, bringing a sense of reassurance.
In the communication officer's astonished gaze, a figure suddenly appeared in the safety passageway. A beautiful girl with long, straight black hair and black thigh-high stockings emerged, graceful and smiling, slowly walking toward her.
"Just a Class B Disaster, I can handle it."
"Isayama Yomi Proxy, you're back?!"
The communication officer stammered, then exclaimed in delight.
This was the heir apparent to the Isayama family, one of the four great exorcism families, and also the proxy and primary combat force of the Supernatural Disaster Countermeasure Bureau. She wielded the divine sword, Lion King, and had vanquished countless evil spirits.
She had experience resolving Class A Disasters and was considered the "anchor" of Chiba City.
"I didn't expect that after being gone so long, little Hai wouldn't even recognize me… Don't worry, leave it to me."
The black-haired girl raised an eyebrow, her delicate face brimming with confidence.
After glancing at the location of the ghost energy on the screen, Isayama Yomi suddenly extended her right hand towards the air. As a dazzling golden light appeared, she suddenly held a gleaming divine blade.
With a gust of wind, *Isayama Yomi vanished from the countermeasure bureau.
The room fell silent again, except for the communication officer's admiring gaze.
"Too late?"
"Who the heck is this strong guy who silently took care of the ghost disaster?"
Minutes later, Isayama Yomi looked at Happy Manor, calmly standing there, scratching her head in confusion.
If it weren't for the lingering ghost energy clinging to the chimney, she would have thought she was at the wrong place.
According to Isayama Yomi's plan, she would first slay the evil spirits escaping from the black hole, preventing innocent civilians from getting hurt, then gather the Supernatural Disaster Countermeasure Bureau's Sealing Team and spend several hours sealing the black hole here.
Not to mention, it would guarantee that this black hole wouldn't erupt for at least a decade.
Now…
Staring at the empty house, the black-haired girl fell into contemplation.
Where are my ghosts?
Where is my black hole?
She knew her own family best; this definitely wasn't something Chiba City's Supernatural Disaster Countermeasure Bureau could do. It was filled with incompetents; the former elites had all been transferred to the "Supernatural Disaster Countermeasure Bureau" in Tokyo.
Even she had been transferred for a while to deal with the more dangerous Killing Stone incident…
Which meant that someone mysterious had infiltrated Chiba City during her absence.
They had the power to kill Class B evil spirits and were also skilled in sealing techniques.
No… maybe it wasn't one person, but a team of ghost hunters specializing in different areas.
In terms of strength, they could possibly rival the heads of the four great exorcism families.
But, she wasn't a pushover either.
"No matter what your intentions are, if you threaten Chiba, I won't show any mercy."
Isayama Yomi suddenly revealed a dangerous smile, speaking to the air.
Like a warning of sorts?
After finishing, she sheathed her divine sword, Lion King, and strode away with a confident air under the moonlight.
After a while, near where Isayama Yomi had left, a large cloud of dust rose, and a handsome figure gradually emerged in the moonlight. Dressed in a magnificent white feathered robe, his expression was thoughtful.
"There are official personnel, as expected."
Luoshu muttered to himself, and the silver ripple on the left side of his vision revealed the girl's information.
[Isayama Yomi]
[Age: 17]
[Occupation: Supernatural Disaster Countermeasure Bureau Proxy]
[Fate: Short-Lived Beauty (Golden), Swordsmanship Prodigy (Light Red), Spirit Arts Mastery (Light Red)]
[Lifespan: 17]
[Status: Chaotic]
"Indeed, a prodigy, unfortunately, she's going to die."
Luoshu sighed with regret, casually brushing off the dust on his clothes.
This was the first time he'd seen a golden fate. Its level of importance was quite high, but unfortunately, it was a debuff. This girl was destined to be a short-lived ghost.
If it had been a positive buff, Isayama Yomi's future would have been extraordinary.
Just now, he had spent 0.55 Divine Authority Gems to create a substantial electric arc shield around his body, allowing him to observe the evil spirit's hideous head up close and even give it a good slap.
Then, he spent 2.3 Divine Authority Gems to forcibly close the spatial rift formed by the black hole.
He had asked the Void about killing this Class B evil spirit. It would require at least 12 Divine Authority Gems or more.
Expensive!
Damn expensive!
Looking at his meager balance, Luoshu gritted his teeth.
In such a dangerous world, this small amount of Divine Authority Gems wouldn't be enough to protect him.
He had been thinking about ways to earn Divine Authority Gems, but then he saw a girl rushing down from the sky, and Luoshu panicked.
He quickly used 5 Divine Authority Gems to materialize a "Invisibility Charm" and stealthily hid nearby.
Because of this, he had gained some understanding of the strength of human powerhouses in this world.
According to the Void's calculations, killing Isayama Yomi would require at least 275.6 Divine Authority Gems, and it would cost even more if she continued to grow stronger.
For his current weak self, the most important thing was to stay hidden and grow strong!
Grow…
Grow, grow…
"I've got it!"
Luoshu's eyes lit up with excitement, and he turned to look at the desktop computer in the bedroom.
What medium could spread information more widely than the internet?
This year, 2012, the doomsday theory was all the rage worldwide.
If he fabricated some doomsday stories and spread them, using Divine Authority Gems to boost himself to the top trending on Twitter, even if only one out of a hundred believed, that would be a huge amount of Divine Authority Gems!
Said and done, Luoshu sat down at the computer with a determined look, pressing the power button.
The internet, activate!
