Chapter 1106: Chapter 648: Hyakki Recruitment
The Great Onmyoji shouted with anger.
Behind her, the twelve shikigami of various styles immediately entered combat readiness.
The reason Abe Seimei was secretly called Japan’s first Onmyoji, besides her impeccable mastery of Yin Yang Technique, was because of the twelve shikigami behind her.
It’s already impressive if a typical Onmyoji can tame one or two shikigami, since taming them requires sharing their demon nature, and a careless mistake could lead to losing control.
However, Abe Seimei seemed to have a special talent; her innate mental resistance was very strong, allowing her to tame an entire twelve shikigami, each quite powerful, with some even stronger than herself.
Thus, if one were to become her enemy, it meant possibly facing thirteen formidable opponents at once.
Now, as this Great Onmyoji entered combat mode, the twelve shikigami behind her exuded monstrous aura, especially the first four shikigami, each with an imposing presence. These were clearly four witches with peak-level strength.
Nevertheless, even the Great Onmyoji and her Twelve Divine Generals, with such overwhelming momentum, didn’t elicit a ripple from the opposing demon team.
“Ah, it seems you’re unwilling to save me some face. So be it.”
The Homebody Witch shook her head with some regret, but she did not further pay attention to the Onmyoji who seemed to be about to explode over there. Instead, she directly turned her gaze to the ninja girl still trapped in the array next to her.
“Miss, although this is our first time meeting, I can tell at a glance we’re meant to be together. Want to join me?”
She invited quite straightforwardly.
Scythe Weasel Witch: “….”
Is now really the time for flirting? And your way of flirting is really awkward.
Inwardly, the Ninja Witch couldn’t help but criticize as she looked at the Twelve Divine Generals encircling them not far away, then at the bizarre Monster Witch in front of her, and finally at Ibuki Yuuki not far away.
Though she did not know who this strange witch inviting her was, she knew and trusted Shuten Douji, the Mountain Ghost King of Monsters.
So….
“If I join you, will you stop me from taking revenge?”
The Scythe Weasel Witch finally asked.
Ever since this odd witch with a sun wheel on her back appeared, the warm sunlight shining upon her brought her swiftly back to consciousness as her near-demonized state dissolved like snow under the sun.
For this reason alone, she felt somewhat drawn to this strange witch with the funny clown mask.
Moreover, had it not been for the sudden appearance of this odd group, she would have likely been subdued by Abe Seimei by now. Hence, this group was also her hope for escape.
But if she couldn’t exact revenge, being someone’s lackey freely was meaningless.
So, the Miss Ninja, with a grim and somewhat vicious gaze, stared firmly at the inviter in front of her, waiting for her response.
“I run a serious team and don’t do evil, so, are your enemies evil?”
Dorothy frankly looked at the seemingly story-rich Miss Ninja and then asked.
At this moment, the Twelve Divine Generals had finished forming a circle, and Abe Seimei had begun reciting incantations to release a barrier.
Miss Scythe Weasel grew anxious at the sight, starting to doubt whether the strange Monster Witch before her was truly reliable—you should at least regard the enemy; don’t get cocky and then fail.
But upon seeing the clear and calm gaze of the other party, she ultimately smirked coldly and replied.
“Evil? Their crimes can no longer merely be described as evil.”
She recalled those high-status enemies, the hellish mortal realm of Japan through their actions, indeed evil ghosts in the mortal world.
“I see, then it’s no problem. Miss, welcome to our ranks. May I know your name?”
Dorothy smiled somewhat joyfully; recruiting for the first time was quite smooth as she cheerfully inquired.
Meanwhile, the Twelve Divine Generals were attacking from all sides toward her.
The Scythe Weasel Witch grew increasingly anxious, she was just about to remind her new boss of the impending danger when the clown witch before her turned back and placed a finger at her lips in a silence gesture, seemingly wanting to remind the surrounding people to stay quiet and not interrupt her recruitment.
But that’s hardly useful, right?
Scythe Weasel Witch thought internally, crazy with frustration.
Come on, this new boss is probably a fool.
Yet, just as this thought arose, the world suddenly grew silent.
No, it’s not the world became quiet but time had stopped.
Za Warudo….
Watching as the Twelve Shikigami Blades and sticks, axes, knives, forks, and numerous weapons were already close but then suddenly immobilized like bugs frozen in amber, the Scythe Weasel Witch stared wide-eyed.
Seriously, temporal powers?
The Ninja Witch was greatly shocked.
But Dorothy unhurriedly took out a registration form.
Her Time Stop currently could pause for more than ten seconds, plenty of time for the newcomer to join with no rush needed.
“Name?”
“Iga Maya.”
…..New recruit registration underway…
