Chat Group: Anime Girls are Moist-Chapter 352: Evil Spirit wants to become a God...

A Subtle Pause.

The wind died down.

Only then did Miko and Hana slowly open their eyes.

"Hah...hah...hah... Where'd that sudden gust come from?"

Miko spat out the dust and grit that had blown into her mouth.

But then she heard Hana's voice, trembling with shock.

"Miko...I-I saw a monster!"

"A monster?"

Seeing Hana standing there, her head tilted back in a daze, mouth gaping, Miko curiously looked up as well.

"!!!"

Her pupils practically quaked.

Miko realized what Hana meant by "monster."

It was a massive figure, half-solid, half-phantom, radiating a golden glow and rising up behind the shrine—like a small mountain.

A Cho ogata Kyojin!

...

Meanwhile, under the same bright morning sky...

Yui—or rather, Mrs. Yuigahama—stirred from sleep.

Her eyes slowly opened, and as her mind cleared, countless memories from the previous night fell into place:

A night of complicated feelings.

A night of guilt.

A night of madness.

A night of pleasure.

She'd experienced so very much that night—sensations she'd never known before. But how she wished it had all just been a dream...

And yet, nestled in the warmth of that strong, reassuring body holding her close, she knew it was no dream. She'd been fully aware the entire time.

"You're awake," said Rei Ao softly, already up.

"...Mm."

Mrs. Yuigahama—avoiding his gaze—only nodded in reply.

"Ma'am..."

"I'm Yui."

"...Alright, Yui. It's okay if I remove it now, right?"

"!!!"

Her body tensed. She realized Rei Ao had kept it in place all night. In an instant, her cheeks reddened furiously.

"Mm."

She gave a small nod, her voice barely above a whisper. Once Rei Ao removed it, her face turned an even deeper shade of pink.

Originally, he'd planned to let her shower, but time seemed unwilling to wait.

[Ding! Yotsuya Miko has sent you a Trade request!]

Simultaneously, Yotsuya Miko posted a photo of the creature in their chat group.

Yotsuya Miko: "@Rei Ao – Rei Ao-nii, isn't this monster some sort of evil spirit? My protective charms don't seem to work on it."

Hiiragi Shinoa: "What on earth is that? It's super creepy."

Yotsuya Miko: "I don't know. It looks scary, but it hasn't harmed me or my friend."

Rei Ao recognized it at once—a so-called "god" formed by an evil spirit in a shrine.

He was surprised his protective charms for evil spirits were ineffective.

Rei Ao: "Hang on—I'll be right there."

Yotsuya Miko: "Mm-hmm!"

[Ding! Trade Initiated!]

[Trade Partner: Yotsuya Miko]

[Trade Content: Eliminate a monster!]

Rei Ao turned to Mrs. Yuigahama. Without warning, and to her astonishment, he lifted her into a princess carry.

"Rei Ao-kun, wh-what are you doing?!"

Still wrapped up in Yui's body, Mrs. Yuigahama was flustered.

"Sorry, Mrs. Yuigahama, something urgent just came up. I don't have time to explain it all."

[Ding! You have selected to bestow chat-group abilities upon Yuigahama Yuisuki!]

Then, using transfer magic, he instantly brought her to the Yuigahama family's bathroom and set her down.

"If you want to understand what's going on, check the info in the group chat. I have to go."

He confirmed the transaction. Rei Ao's figure vanished before her eyes, leaving Mrs. Yuigahama alone and dazed, reeling from the sudden flood of knowledge and information in her mind.

...

At the Shrine...

Yotsuya Miko and Yurikawa Hana clung to each other, trembling, as a gigantic monster loomed over them. They also saw two humanoid figures wearing fox masks, half-translucent. Whether those beings were monsters too, neither of them knew.

"M-Miko, I can see the monster!"

Hana was both terrified and excited.

"Mm, I know. I can see it, too."

Miko fought to suppress her fear, trying to calm Hana. She herself was shocked that Hana could suddenly see monsters. Did this monster awaken Hana's "spiritual sight," or was it simply a tangible entity rather than an evil spirit? Miko wasn't sure. All she could do was clutch her protective charm and wait for Rei Ao to arrive.

"Ding-ding-dang-dang!"

Countless bells attached to the monster chimed as it stared at them with its eerie gaze, though it took no overt action. The two fox-masked humanoid creatures, however, seemed to receive some signal and began approaching.

"W-what's that?"

Still trembling in fear, Hana suddenly noticed something new appear before them. She looked up...and realized what it was.

It was a familiar figure for Miko.

"Rei Ao-kun!"

Yotsuya Miko called out in relief.

Indeed, it was Rei Ao who had just appeared.

"Hana, it's Rei Ao-kun—we're saved!"

"... ..."

While Miko was overjoyed, Hana stared up blankly. Following Hana's line of sight, Rei Ao glanced downward and quirked his lips.

"Scared?"

"Mm...it's so big," Hana replied timidly.

"Yeah, Rei Ao-kun, that monster is huge! What in the world is it?!"

Miko, clearly more focused on the creature, spoke in a rush. Rei Ao merely waved his hand, and a fresh set of clothes materialized on him. He then briefly examined the two fox-mask figures, akin to "shrine maidens" of this so-called god, as well as the giant figure perched atop the shrine—a thing wrapped in an aura of holiness.

"I see."

With a single glance, he understood. It was, beyond doubt, still an evil spirit. But it had cloaked itself with something akin to human worship, hiding its true nature within.

"So you want to become a god through human faith?"

Rei Ao almost laughed.

"Let me share a little saying: 'One worthless wretch remains so for life.' If you're an evil spirit for a day, you're an evil spirit for life."

"ROOAARR!!!"

His words seemed to enrage the massive being. It let out a thunderous bellow, its body splitting apart to reveal countless eyeballs. The golden, sacred aura faded, exposing a glimpse of its real evil-spirit form.

"Tsk. You really hate being an evil spirit, huh?

What's with all the disguises...so pretentious."

Rei Ao smirked. "Guess I'll show everyone your true face."

At that moment, the two shrine-maiden-like figures suddenly charged him. Rei Ao gave them a cold look, and instantly they froze in place, losing the ability to move. Fire ignited upon their bodies.

"Ahhh!!"

They let out shrill screams. In a mere blink, right in front of Miko and Hana, these two humanoid evil spirits were burned to ashes.
