“Be purified, be exorcised, be protected, give fortune. Takemikazuchi who resides in the Kashima Shrine, please assist me and bestow me power, please grant me the power to destroy the rampant evil spirit in front of me.”

Phew, if you want to laugh, then laugh.

My friends have told me that I have 8th grade syndrome, but the way I see it, my grandfather taught me this ritual prayer.

It’s a ritual prayer to continuously chant when you see a ghost.

I recited it throughout the town without minding where I was, so people treated me like I had 8th grade syndrome.

However, I was brought up being taught that it was a sin and insolence for those who could see them to not use their power.

I’ll be using it because my grandfather taught me.

“Kashima Shinto-ryu 1, Revision Onmyoudou Takemikazuchi 10th Formation
Be purified, be exorcised, be protected, give fortune.
Takemikazuchi who resides in the Kashima Shrine, please assist me and bestow me power, please grant me the power to destroy the rampant evil spirit in front of me.”

“Uwaa, nununununununu, stoppp, stop, it’s painful, bastard what on earth are you.”

“Sorry person with the Chinese bellflower crest. I have to destroy the apparition that I see. I have the nickname “Ibaraki’s restive horse”. 2 To seal the apparitions, I borrow the power of Takemikazuchi and seal you off!
Be purified, be exorcised, be protected, give fortune.
Takemikazuchi who resides in the Kashima Shrine, please assist me and bestow me power, please grant me the power to destroy the rampant evil spirit in front of me.”

“Oi, Shinigami, what are you doing?”

The pajama middle-aged man was more interested in my weird actions than the enemies before him and glared at me.

“If you’re asking me what this is, that’s putting me on the spot. It’s hard to explain after all, but for the time being, I’m not great enough to be called a Shinigami.”

“Nuooooo, b-b-bastard, kill him after you kill that person, shoot shoot, shoot him to death!”

Bang
Bang
Bang
Bang

The bullet fired from the matchlock gun grazed my cheeks.

“It hurtssss, what the heck. Is this actually the real thing? What’s with this place? This isn’t a shoot, stop f*cking with me, ahhhh, f*ckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk. I don’t know what’s what but I don’t want to die. I’m borrowing this gun.”

I picked up the matchlock gun that fell nearby the white pajama figure.

“That is my lord’s favorite matchlock gun.”

Is this pretty kid an actor from that famous major idol office? That’s some good acting, I’ll be jamming all my onmyou power into this gun and shoot it.

“Be purified, be exorcised, be protected, give fortune. Takemikazuchi who resides in the Kashima Shrine, please assist me and bestow me power, please grant me the power to destroy the rampant evil spirit in front of me.”

I’ll drive out that fox spirit.

Bangggg.

The gunpowder explosion’s huge recoil ran through my body.

Eh? This is the real thing?

Gushhhhh

Thud

Huh? There’s blood from that guy’s head…… it pierced through? Eh? That was a live bullet? I only charged Onmyou energy into it and shot through.

“Traitors, Akechi Mitsuhide has been defeated!”

Eh? What are you saying, you pretty boy idol actor?

“Ranmaru, cut off his head.”

Eh? What are you saying? This actor makes a regular appearance at the Academy Awards doesn’t he…… um, police?

Splurt, grind grind grind grind.

H-H-He actually lopped off his head…… uwahh, the blood, the blood is spouting out.

What’s with this? This kind of splatter film can’t be broadcasted.

Historical horror? R18?

“The head of the rebels, the head of Akechi Mitshide, has been cut off!”

The tip of the sword pierced through the helmet with the Chinese bellflower family crest.

Uwa, that’s gross……
