In the end, Yukino Yukinoshita left with her doubts and worries.
"Yukino Shita, still so awkward."
She shook her head, feeling a bit helpless.
Some things, she could let her do as she pleased.
But when it came to her own safety, she should at least talk to her family and seek help, right?
"Sigh…"
However…
If Yukino Shita didn't say, it wasn't as if she had no way of knowing.
Her insider at Shuchiin Academy would find out everything for her!
That's right, it's you, Little Jing!
Hiratsuka Shizuka: "Huh?"
After hanging up the phone, Hiratsuka Shizuka looked speechless.
No, your sister's life is a life, but your best friend's life isn't?
She completely didn't want to get involved with anything supernatural!
Although she had fantasized about becoming a protagonist in a hot-blooded manga someday, but…
When it really happened in reality, she would indeed shrink back!
However…
"Just keeping an eye on Yukino Shita's actions shouldn't be a problem, right?"
She hesitated, but still made up her mind.
No matter what, Yukino Yukinoshita was still her student.
Helping students solve difficulties was a teacher's duty!
The next day.
Kyoto.
Izayama Yomi returned to the Supernatural Environment Countermeasures Office with a natural expression.
She didn't feel there was anything wrong with her identity as a demon walking into the Countermeasures Office.
But her superior clearly didn't think so.
Temple, Shinto stared at Izayama Yomi with complex eyes, feeling a knot in her heart.
She had received news from Natsuki Minamiya yesterday.
When she learned how things had developed, her first reaction was disbelief.
But…
Izayama Yomi had truly become a demon and was standing before her!
Temple, Shinto rubbed her temples, feeling a pain in her chest.
Her proud subordinate, who had only gone out to perform a mission, had sold herself to a demon?
Although it was beyond her control…
After all, facing a great demon like Hagoromo Gitsune, even if it was just a single tail, being able to return alive was already very lucky.
But…
She was still very unwilling!
Another promising human talent had been abducted by a demon!!
Temple, Shinto was furious internally!
Ever since demons could use demon chess pieces to reincarnate other races as demons.
Humanity's already scarce talent pool had become even more dire!
Moreover…
That demon, after happily acquiring a familiar, even demanded compensation from them for it!
Simply!
Outrageous!!
Ultimately…
All of this, indeed, was the fault of that Witch of the Void!!
You asked her to help find someone, and she brought a demon?
Well…
Yomi herself summoned it…
That's also, something that couldn't be helped…
After all, she had to survive…
Temple, Shinto didn't blame Izayama Yomi, but just said with a headache: "What are your plans for the future?"
Izayama Yomi looked at her with confusion, then said: "The same as always?"
Temple, Shinto: "…"
"Did your demon master not give you any instructions?"
"Hmm… just told me to do what I usually do…"
"Alright…"
Temple, Shinto was a bit confused.
What did this demon mean?
To plant a demon familiar within a human official organization?
What exactly did he want to do?!
However…
She really couldn't refuse.
Izayama Yomi was already useful, and after becoming a demon, she should be even more useful, right?
She was very tempted.
Anyway, they were still using a witch who had signed a contract with a demon, so a demon's familiar didn't seem like such a big deal.
"Okay."
Temple, Shinto readily agreed.
"However, it won't be easy to explain to your family, will it?"
Hearing this, Izayama Yomi paused, "It doesn't matter."
They were not important.
...
In the afternoon.
Yukino Yukinoshita took a deep breath and stood still at the entrance of the Supernatural Investigation Department.
After sitting alone in the classroom until five in the afternoon, Yukino Yukinoshita finally made up her mind.
She decided to sell herself!
From last night until now, she had been caught in an internal struggle of indecision and hesitation, and she had come to understand one truth.
True strength is acknowledging one's vulnerability!
In the past, she always prided herself on being strong.
But she always turned a blind eye to her own weaknesses.
The Old School Building incident peeled back the cruel veil.
She clearly understood her own fragility.
But…
