...

During the busy hours, there are only a few people on the tram platform.

The weather is sunny, and the snow near the railway tracks has melted a lot, but it is still a bit cold in places where the sun does not shine.

Zonggu touched his arm, stood up from his seat, and felt his body became a little warmer when he stood in the sun.

The tram hasn't come yet.

He is going to Kyoto in the west to find someone he has never seen before.

This was a spur-of-the-moment trip. Fortunately, it took less than an hour to take the train from Konko City to Kyoto, and the time spent going back and forth was not worth regretting...provided he could make it back.

"..."

Can you come back?

The other party was a very dangerous person, and it had been his last option since the beginning. But after staying at Kirino's house and spending more than a week peacefully, he had almost forgotten this option.

But as if to continue the main theme of his short life, his expectations once again met with surprise:

The evil spirit that indirectly helped him escape from hell was so powerful that no one could deal with it.

The spirit removers will do what they can after a great defeat, but the natural spirits from the underworld do not know what fear is, they are destroyed and resurrected, and they continue to come from the other world;

He could spend the night in Kirino Akane's room once because she was scared, but he could not take risks again and again because of this, let alone return the amulet that suppressed her spiritual sense to her.

Only then did Zonggu realize that his leeway was actually very small, and taking a step back would mean he was helpless.

And the only choice in this depression was that the miko lady he dug out of the snow helped him recall it with an unintentional soliloquy.

["...A ferocious spirit of that level has never been seen before... If Izanami-sama is still guarding the land of underworld, he will never let it escape from the other world..."]

The spiritually aware people in the world also seem to know that the Lord of Underworld has left there long ago, but they do not know her whereabouts.

But Soya knew.

Ding ding ding——

Along with the slight vibration of the railway track, a rapid ringing of bells sounded in the empty platform.
