The Hero Association?
After all, they are also capturing ghouls for experiments, so the possibility of them capturing monsters as well cannot be ruled out.
but. . .
If I had to pick the most likely candidate, Aoba thinks it would be the Monster Association.
"Don't worry about this for now. I'll ask the prosecutor's office later."
Aoba frowned, tapping her fingers incessantly on the table.
"Shinto and Reiko just came over and talked about something, which is rather urgent."
"whats the matter?!"
Otome became interested.
"Near the park where we previously defeated the Karasu Tengu, it seems a powerful yokai's yokai energy has gone berserk..."
"That monster happens to be Reiko's friend as well."
"Shen Dong and I aren't very confident. Why don't you come with us tomorrow to take a look?"
Yamabuki Otome listened to Aoba's words.
His expression suddenly became somewhat tense.
"Are you sure it's a case of demonic energy going berserk?"
"Deep winter has been confirmed, so it should be pretty much true."
"Well... this is a bit troublesome."
"what happened?"
Otome Yamabuki crossed her legs and placed one on top of the other. "I've seen cases of demonic energy going berserk before in old Kyoto."
"Although a long time has passed..."
"But in Hagoromo Gitsune's memory, something like this has happened before."
"It seems to be something from an old era, known as the Shikon Jewel, which is said to be able to grant the wishes of all people and yokai..."
"When it appeared, it caused many monsters to fight over it."
"In the end, it was Abe no Seimei who intervened and finally stopped the chaotic battle."
"However, in the end, Abe no Seimei also disappeared without a trace."
Chapter 141 A Storm is Brewing! The Shikon Jewel Causes a Turmoil!
Abe Haruaki?
That legendary founder of Onmyoji?!
Aoba couldn't help but click her tongue and sigh softly.
From Otome's tone, it was clear that she harbored a great deal of resentment towards Abe no Seimei.
Even his own demonic power began to leak out.
As a result, many plants inside the house bloomed, filling the hall with a refreshing fragrance.
"That guy seems like he's going to be tough to deal with?"
"Difficult to deal with? I don't know, but it seems that all of Hagoromo Gitsune's memories of Abe no Seimei have been rewritten."
Yamabuki Otome seemed to realize her situation and quickly gathered up the chaotic and restless demonic power.
This only mentions the name of Abe no Seimei.
These unintentional words caused Yamabuki Otome's gaze to turn cold.
With a light tap of his fingers on the table, two snow-white fox tails appeared behind him, swaying wildly.
His dark, cold eyes were fixed on himself in the bowl of oden soup.
In the reflected light, it seemed as if the shadow of the former Hagoromo Gitsune had stepped out, its bloody fangs bared, licking its claws incessantly at Otome.
And behind her...
It seemed that a few figures flashed by.
The tallest figure among them sent a chill down Otome's spine!
You can’t go wrong!
That was... Abe no Seimei!!
"Otome?!"
Qingye drank the last sip of the hangover soup, letting the sour taste linger on her teeth.
This also falls under the category of cooking skills.
Pharmacology skills in 1v2.
Combined with his upgraded 1v5 Gluttony skill, he can obtain energy from any food.
Even if it's just a hangover soup, it transforms into nourishing nutrients the moment it enters your mouth.
Even because the purification moment kept Aoba awake, he was able to clearly perceive the process of his body being continuously strengthened and nourished after eating.
This process...
It's wonderful!
Just like the experience bar that you can see constantly increasing in a game, the positive feedback it provides is enough to make anyone addicted.
At the same time, due to repeated strengthening of the body.
He has a greater capacity to bear demonic power and other forces, and his natural perception has also reached a new level.
He could still detect the turbulent demonic power within Yamabuki Otome beside him, even though it only lasted for a moment.
The feeling he experienced from that frenzied demonic power was completely different from, and entirely unrelated to, that of a maiden.
Cold, cruel, cunning, and tyrannical.
"don’t worry!"
Aoba suddenly placed her hand on Otome's head. "I'm here for you."
In the palm of her hand, streams of pure and exquisite thought were continuously transmitted to the maiden through purification.
The moment the psychic power and demonic power merged, it was like a shrill scream that came from nowhere before suddenly disappearing.
Yamabuki Otome seemed to have exhausted all her strength, and collapsed weakly into Aoba's arms.
The beads of sweat on her forehead and her tightly closed eyes made her look less assertive than before.
Instead, it gives off a feeling of extreme vulnerability.
Moreover, his breathing became increasingly labored, and his body began to tremble involuntarily.
Aoba's eyes trembled slightly. He grabbed Otome around the waist with both hands and rushed up to the second floor.
He was still telling Thor, "Thor, please watch the shop."
"Ah... Oh! Don't worry, manager!"
The dragon girl was still contemplating the meaning of life, and even her answers seemed somewhat dazed and cute.
However, Aoba couldn't care less about that at the moment.
The situation with the maiden was somewhat unexpected; the fox tail behind her kept appearing and disappearing under the influence of demonic power.
My body temperature fluctuated between hot and cold.
It's somewhat like...
The snow woman mentioned tonight about the rampage of her demonic power!
And then there's that Shikon Jewel...
Isn't that something from Inuyasha?!
"It's a bit troublesome."
Aoba looked at Otome, who was panting heavily and frowning, in great pain.
He felt a little anxious, but then a cool sensation rushed to his head, and he didn't say a word.
He buried his face in his mouth and kissed those thin lips!
hmm~
In an instant!
Lips and teeth meet, back and forth.

"A dark and windy night, a murderous night."
There is no moon tonight, but there is this torrential rain...
"It's still pretty good weather."
Heavy rain, late at night. (Unintelligible text - likely a fragment from a poem or poem)
Several dark figures huddled together, their deep, low voices sounding like they were issuing commands.
"Ksitigarbha, is what you said really true?"
Another voice, which sounded quite impartial, seemed to be disconnected from these guys.
He spread his jet-black wings and stood atop the roof beam, looking down below:
