The Sword Deity in Tokyo-Chapter 12: The Final Forum
Eguchi Keisuke was relieved to see that the Head of Department had no intention of beating up Furuhashi Natsui, she was a beauty after all. And as her senior, he believed that such a pretty junior was better to be protected.
Of course, the Sword Believers' Club would never hold back if the Head of Department wanted to teach her a lesson.
As Keisuke went off into wild flights of fancy, Kimura Kazuki had downed three big bowls of udon almost instantly, feeling a little full at last.
Keisuke cleared the dishes on the table soon after. He did not refuse when Kazuki handed the money to him.
All the members from the Sword Believers' Club knew that Kazuki was well-known for his big appetite. Despite this, the Eguchi family would always rack their brains to give him discounts or free meals.
Still, Kazuki always insisted on paying, mostly because if he were to eat as he pleased, the noodle shop of the Eguchi family would go bankrupt sooner or later.
"Watch your way home." Seeing that Keisuke had already finished packing up, Kazuki did not invite him to stay.
"I might take another day off tomorrow, watch over the school order and the members of the Sword Believers' Club."
"Alright!" Keisuke responded. After a moment of hesitation, he asked, "Head of Department, what's happening?"
Kazuki never asked for leave over the past year, but now he had taken two days off in a row.
"Something, but it's no big deal. I'll be back to school the day after tomorrow."
Kazuki didn't let on much. Although Keisuke tried to form words, he decided to let it drop. He bid the Head of Department farewell and left with the food delivery box.
With Keisuke gone, Kazuki returned to his desk to continue inscribing talismans.
There could never be too many talismans. Moreover, Kazuki planned to explore Akichi High School tomorrow night. Which was why he kept inscribing talismans when he had time. He would have a better chance of survival in case he ran into some evil spirits.
Kazuki did not sleep a wink, he kept inscribing talismans until 9 a.m. the following day.
The initial amount of Enchanted Talismans had increased from 17 pieces to 31 pieces. Though seeming like a lot, Kazuki knew that they were not even enough to be squandered by the members of the Enchanted Talisman Division in the past life.
Basically, each researching member of the Enchanted Talisman Division would cram over thousands of pieces of Enchanted Talismans in his bag. Hundreds of talismans would be cast at once when they were in danger.
As far as researching members of the Enchanted Talisman Division were concerned, these talismans were like toilet paper. There was nothing to feel sorry about no matter how many talismans were used up.
These 31 pieces of talismans were a pitiful amount in comparison to them.
Kazuki returned swiftly after heading out for a meal. He took a cold bath before collapsing into a deep slumber on his bed.
Kazuki looked at the clock when he woke up, it was almost 7 p.m.
Kazuki got out of bed and brushed up, he took his time and continued inscribing talismans.
He had a total of 36 Enchanted Talismans at 10 p.m. There were 16 Spiritual Fire Talismans, 10 Ghost Expelling Talismans and 10 Spirit Stabilizer Talismans.
Upon organizing the 36 talismans according to their types, Kazuki stuffed them into his pockets. He straightened up and headed out with his Sun and Moon Sword.
As Echizen Road was poverty-stricken and chaotic, there was basically no one on the street at night. Only a clamor of voices could be heard from distant street stalls.
He looked at the night sky, the night was buried, and he could see neither star nor moon.
Kazuki reached the train station shortly and purchased a ticket to Herian District. The tram pulled into the station five minutes later.
After Kazuki boarded the tram, the onboard people took a quick glance at him before looking down at their phone.
At a glance, Kazuki noticed that it was pretty crowded on board.
The last tram in Japan usually ran until 1 a.m., so most of the passengers must be the corporate slaves who were heading home after working overtime.
Kazuki took a seat casually and sat down holding the Sun and Moon Sword. He closed his eyes and took a nap.
A girl who sat across Kazuki stared at him curiously, given that he was carrying a samurai sword. Even though it was a wooden one, it was still a rare sight. Kazuki felt her stare, but he chose to ignore it. Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www.novelkiss.com for visiting.
"Yasuda, do you think there are ghosts in Akichi High School? What are we going to do if we really run into one?"
"I don't know if there are ghosts, but Akichi High School is very famous in Herian District. Once, a film crew shot a movie in the school, and a strange white figure was caught in their films."
"It's said that you can see a different world if you use your phone to shoot a video in Akichi High School."
"You guys make this sound so scary, I'm starting to feel reluctant to go!"
"Yamazaki, I've done my homework, a huge fire broke out in Akichi High School five years ago, killing the entire class of people…"
Kazuki listened to the whispered conversation nearby. He opened his eyes and took a quick look at them, finding that they were three boys and two girls who were in their twenties.
His forehead creased slightly, these people were just talking about Akichi High School. Obviously, that was also where they were heading to...
There were no boundaries to human curiosity; some were able to restrain it, while some couldn't care less about controlling themselves. Clearly, this bunch of people had heard about Akichi High School and came looking for an adventure.
After living a comfortable life for much too long, eventually, people would seek death, looking for some form of excitement.
After pondering for a while, Kazuki decided not to give it much thought and continued with his nap. He would wait until they reached Akichi High School.
10 minutes later, the train arrived at Herian District.
Nakagawa Aokiji was about to disembark when he noticed the youngster, who was holding a samurai sword while taking a nap on the train, go off the tram before him. Apart from him, a freckled girl with long, straight black hair and a good figure got off the tram as well.
The gang of five was stunned for a while, but they did not think much of it.
They got off the tram soon after.
As the organizer of this event, Nakagawa Aokiji volunteered to be the leader of the group. He began, "Yamazaki, find the exact location of Akichi High School on Google Maps. Remember, Akichi High School has two campuses, a new one and an old one. The old campus is the one that we are looking for."
Although Akichi High School was famous on various online spiritual forums, Nakagawa Aokiji and the others did not make any preparation beforehand. Or as they liked to put it, they enjoyed the process of exploring unknown horrors. Hence, even if Aokiji knew the way to the old campus, he still let Yamazaki search for it on Google Maps.
Whether or not there are ghosts, they didn't really mind, nor do they believe in the existence of ghosts.
Yamazaki Masato was already prepared when he was in the tram. He looked at his phone and pointed in the direction of Kazuki and the freckled girl. He made a strange face and said, "Go in this direction for half an hour."
"Are those two heading toward Akichi High School as well?"
"No way? They don't seem to be acquainted. Are they really going to explore Akichi High School on their own?"
They gasped in admiration, these two people were way too courageous.
It was almost 11 p.m., and it would be 12 midnight in another hour. Exploring Akichi High School at this hour could cause a great deal of psychological stress as it was the most terrifying time.
Nakagawa Aokiji contemplated for a second before he beckoned for everyone to catch up.
Aokiji led Yamazaki Masato and Yasuda Aohi toward Kazuki, whereas Sakai Keiko and Suzuki Aichi went up to the freckled girl.
Kazuki looked at the group of three who went up to him and asked indifferently, "You guys are?"
"Hello, these two are the administrators of the Final Forum," Aokiji smiled as he introduced, "I'm the moderator."
