Chapter 16

Yongsan and his team had only just reported the incident when several armed armored vehicles quickly arrived at Ukiyo-cho. Several "professionals" soon got out of the vehicles.

Among them was an uncle dressed in the attire of a certain shrine, a mature lady dressed in a miko outfit with a long sword at her waist, and even a monk holding prayer beads.

A lady with waist-length black hair, exquisite beauty, and a voluptuous figure was now crouching in front of a dead rat demon, observing it, then looking back at the uncle who was a yin-yang practitioner.

"Mr. Kamijo, these are all low-level rat demons, with demon power levels roughly at D to E grade. So, ordinary firearms can indeed kill them.

However, this number..."

The lady dressed in a miko outfit was named Yamato Kusagi, the most outstanding miko of the current young generation of the Yamato family, and also a member of the Non-Natural Countermeasures Group.

As for the person called Mr. Kamijo and the monk, they were also members of the Countermeasures Group. However, Yamato Kusagi was a relatively new member, and this was her first mission, so the two seniors were leading the operation.

"Indeed, it is a rather astonishing number. Moreover, most of the rat demons here, except for a few that died from gunshot wounds, were actually killed by swords."

Kamijo looked at the many severed limbs and arms of the rat demons on the ground and quickly realized that not all of the dead rat demons had been killed by gunfire.

This was not hard to distinguish, as the power of a handgun could not have shattered the tough bodies of the rat demons into so many pieces. Moreover, there were many sword marks on the ground, indicating that there was at least one skilled swordsman here before.

"If a group of rat demons, even if they are all low-level E-grade demons, were to attack, even I would not be able to escape unscathed...

The person who fought here must have at least C-grade strength, or perhaps even higher!"

Yamato Kusagi looked at the crisscrossing sword marks on the ground, gripped the hilt of her sword at her waist, and her expression showed a look of battle readiness.

Unlike other miko who were skilled in blessings and prayers, Yamato Kusagi was a rare exception. She loved swordsmanship and had shown remarkable talent in it from a young age.

Although she was only twenty years old, she already possessed D+ grade strength and had become the youngest member of the Non-Natural Countermeasures Group.

Her swordsmanship skills were on par with the old masters, so even though she did not know who the skilled swordsman who killed the rat demons was, it still sparked a sense of battle in her.

"Although, as Miss Yamato said, the person who fought might be a skilled swordsman, saying that the person has C-grade strength might be underestimating them.

Come and look at this, I don't think a C-grade person has the ability to kill this thing."

When Kamijo and Yamato Kusagi approached the thing the old monk was talking about, both of them were undoubtedly stunned.

Although the rat demon king had been dead for some time, the residual demon power and the massive size of its body were undeniable.

"Master Bai Ma, could this be..."

"You're right. With such a massive size and demon power, this rat demon must be the king of the rat demon group, and its level is at least C+ grade.

To cleanly cut it in half and leave such a terrifying battle mark, the person must be at least a B-grade or higher!"

If the bodies of the rat demon group had only surprised everyone, then the body of the rat demon king, cut in half, directly terrified the members of the Non-Natural Countermeasures Group.

Without a doubt, if the rat demon king were to stand before them now, even the three of them together might not be a match for it.

And in this city, there was actually a strong person who could defeat the rat demon group and the rat demon king alone, and they had no idea about it.

Because they could not figure out who the mysterious strong person was, Kamijo and his team called in Kusano Hina and Yongsan and others.

From the traces at the scene, Hina and the others had also participated in the battle, so they might have seen the person's face.

However, before the Non-Natural Countermeasures Group arrived, Yongsan and the others had already agreed not to reveal Yudou's information.

On one hand, Yudou had expressed that he did not want his peaceful life to be disrupted before he left. On the other hand, Yudou was ultimately their savior, and betraying him was something Yongsan and the others could not do.

Moreover, from the conversation with Kamijo and the others, Yongsan and the others had also realized that Yudou's strength was even greater than these "professionals."

So, they could not afford to offend Yudou. It was better to quickly get on his good side and build a good relationship with him.

Previously, they thought Yudou was just a talented descendant of a certain shrine, but now it was clear that they had greatly underestimated him.

This guy is not just a genius; he is a big shot himself!

So, when Kamijo asked, Yongsan and the others basically played dumb and said they had not seen the person.

After they dealt with a small part of the rat demons, they came here and saw the scene like this.

From the battle traces at the scene, the place where Yongsan and the others fought was indeed a bit farther from where Yudou fought.

In the end, the Non-Natural Countermeasures Group handled all the rat demon bodies, and the body of the rat demon king was transported back by a large truck.

At this level, some parts of the demon's body can be used as materials to make exorcism weapons, and they are quite expensive!

Although they did not figure out who the strong person who fought here tonight was, the area of Ukiyo-cho was still marked as a key area of concern.

It was not that they wanted to arrest Yudou, but the Non-Natural Countermeasures Group was interested in Yudou's strength and wanted to recruit him into the organization.

In recent years, the world has been undergoing some subtle changes, and supernatural incidents have been occurring more frequently around the world.

To address this issue, the country specifically established this special organization, the "Non-Natural Countermeasures Group."

The members of the group are composed of various shrines, temples, and some civilian exorcism experts. In recent years, their exorcism efforts have been quite effective.

However, due to limited manpower and the inherent advantages of demons over humans, the Non-Natural Countermeasures Group often suffers significant casualties during missions.

Even when encountering higher-level demons, total annihilation is a common occurrence. The person who dealt with the rat infestation tonight is undoubtedly a strong person with at least B-grade strength, so the Countermeasures Group is eager for their participation.

Whether the person lives in this area or just happened to pass by, the abandoned area of Ukiyo-cho is now under strict surveillance.
