Chapter Index

    ‘By the way, since this is the first time holding a ritual after being sealed away, the response is much better than I expected. Even the guys outside seem to be gradually gathering, as if they heard rumors somewhere.’

    The audience seats, which were somewhat empty at first, were soon filled with numerous demons.

    ‘Well, thanks to that, Shigure’s movement will be easier, so I guess you could call it luck.’

    Do Yu-jin thought calmly as she stepped on Oni’s body that had fallen on the floor.

    As the fight continued, the stadium, like the audience seats, was filled with countless Oni corpses.

    Because of that, it was now difficult to stand properly on the field without stepping on a corpse.

    ‘I guess we need to call as many Oni as possible here to make the plan go more smoothly, right? And what makes these guys go crazy is the stimulating performance with blood and flesh running wild… … ‘

    So it was clear what he had to do now.

    Click-

    Do Yu-jin lightly rolled her head while activating the trait she had gained by entering the acting club in the past.

    ‘I’ve never really thought I had any talent for acting, but it’s easy to play characters that these idiots like.’

    Shhh-

    After finishing his thoughts like that, Do Yu-jin stretched out his shadow and brought a bottle of alcohol from outside the stadium, and drank it without hesitation.

    The cold liquid melts your throat with its tangy taste and aroma and sets your whole body on fire.

    It was such a strong drink that even a single sip would have made the usual Do Yu-jin faint.

    However, for Do Yu-jin, who had injected various buff potions all over her body along with the magic potion she bought from the [store], this was no different from a tangy cola.

    Clang-

    Do Yu-jin, who had lightly thrown the now empty bottle behind her back, opened her mouth lightly.

    “Hey, big guy. Let’s change one rule a little bit from now on.”

    “What?”

    Oni’s expression distorted when he heard the sudden words.

    Are you trying to do something?

    As expected, humans are cowardly.

    As the guy was growling with such thoughts, Do Yu-jin raised three fingers and said.

    “Instead of playing house and hitting each other once, how about hitting each other three times to make it cool?”

    “What?”

    Oni opened his mouth in bewilderment at the completely unexpected suggestion.

    Do Yu-jin, who had become a little bit of a fool like them because she had been drinking while looking at that sight, said.

    “Let’s not go easy, let’s go hot.”

    Contrary to what he said, Do Yu-jin’s voice was very calm.

    Of course, this was a proposal that was clearly disadvantageous to Do Yu-jin.

    Unlike over there, where the number of participants is still overwhelming and continues to grow, Do Yu-jin has to deal with all of them by herself.

    In other words, this is a choice that will only result in loss for him.

    but.

    Wooo–!!!

    This is definitely the option that will make the audience go crazy.

    ‘I’m so tired I could die… … but what can I do?’

    Sigh-

    ‘Whether it’s rolling on the floor or spitting up blood, I’ll do it if necessary.’

    The board is nicely made.

    ‘So please come quickly.’

    Do Yu-jin thought of someone running around, shaking their fresh green hair like a field of grass, and touched her own neck for no reason.

    “Captain, are we really okay with this?”

    “Huh? What are you talking about all of a sudden?”

    “No, that’s right!”

    One of the members of Red Tail, with an impressive head of hair that resembled a chicken comb, let out an anxious sound.

    As Tagame was looking at him and thinking that he was a cheerful guy who had just escaped from the monsters and was crying and snotting, the guy flapped his hands like wings and spoke.

    “You saw it too, Captain! All the demons in the village gathered here! This is definitely their nest!”

    “Well, I guess so.”

    “If you knew that, you shouldn’t have come here! You should run away from here right now!”

    As he spoke, the guy pointed to Shigure, who was moving like a flash and clearing out the surrounding monsters.

    “I’ve seen enough on my way here that that guy is strong, but I can’t just trust him when I don’t know how many demons there are in here! In the first place, this isn’t something we can handle at our level… !”

    “Shut up, you punk!”

    Tagame, who had been slowly frowning, finally swung his fist, unable to hold back his rising irritation.

    The guy who hit him square in the face let out a duck-like scream and fell to the ground.

    “Stop whining, you punk!

    Tagame shouted loudly when he saw that guy.

    ”What have you been muttering like that for a while now! Did you run away from Oni because you thought you’d get caught, so you threw away your brain and ran away?! And what are you going to do if you scream like that and the Yokai gathers around?!”

    “The captain who said that is also shouting now… … ”

    “This kid still hasn’t come to his senses!”

    The guy who saw Tagame frown and raise his fist kept his mouth shut.

    But that was all, the guy’s eyes were still shaking strongly with fear and anxiety.

    And he and other members of the organization were the same.

    The only difference is whether you show it or not.

    Tagame knew him well, so he lowered his raised fist and shouted at them.

    “I understand what you’re worried about and scared about! But we’re the strongest organization! Red Tail! And you’re members of that Red Tail!”

    At Tagame’s shout, dozens of eyes that had followed him gathered towards him.

    Looking at them, Tagame said:

    “I know what you’re worried about! Most of you here have probably seen Oni in person, so you’ve seen how ferocious they are. But!”

    Kuung-!

    “You guys! Can you really just step back and be satisfied with this?”

    Although they go by the fancy name of Red Tail, their essence is closer to a social group or violent circle than a guild-like organization.

    Therefore, the strongest chain that binds them together is none other than the emotions in their hearts, namely the bravado, arrogance, and pride typical of those in their 20s.

    But now, Tagame was pinpointing exactly that part and pulling it out.

    “What are our rules?!”

    “If you receive something, you will return it 100 times!”

    Tagame nodded vigorously, looking at the guy who answered reflexively.

    “Surely we are 100 times weaker than those guys.”

    Shhh-

    “If we give those guys a nice slap in the face! Wouldn’t it be like getting revenge 100 times over?!”

    “That’s right!”

    “Then are there any guys here who would get scared and run away?!”

    “No!!!”

    They answered with shouts, forgetting even their fear in their rising blood.

    Shigure, who had dealt with a demon wandering in front, looked at them and thought quietly.

    ‘That guy seems to have some qualities of a leader.’

    What is the role of a leader?

    Leading the group you lead to where victory exists?

    That’s not wrong, but the role of a leader that Shigure thinks of is to always be the focal point that brings the group together.

    Because an organization can only exist if there is a leader.

    From that perspective, it can be seen that Tagame has the qualities of a leader.

    ‘Well, it seems like it’s easy to convince people because all the people who listen are fools.’

    Woof-

    At that moment, Shigure’s choker began to vibrate slightly, sending a signal.

    A feature that exists to help lost pets find their owners.

    Thanks to that, Shigure was able to easily find out Doyujin’s location, so he lightly patted her neck and gestured to Tagame.

    “Let’s go.”

    Tagame, who saw him, led his men and the people he had rescued from around the city into the stadium.

    I was able to see it after taking a few steps like that.

    Woof-! Woof-! Woof-!

    A festival of Oni filled with alcohol, blood, and madness.

    “What, what is it… … ”

    “What is this… … ”

    When they came face to face with the scene where drops of blood seemed to float in the air, they all became terrified, making their previous spirits seem meaningless.

    And then, Doyujin, who had received Shigure’s signal, turned her gaze towards them and smiled slightly.

    ‘Are you finally here?’

    When Do Yu-jin was sighing in relief.

    Hodadak-

    Yumi, who had been quietly observing the situation until now, quickly started to do what she had to do while moving among the Red Tail members.

    As the scene changes, the gears that had been stopped until now begin to mesh with each other and turn.

    ‘So is this going to be the end of this?’

    At the same time that Do Yu-jin was thinking that.

    Swish-

    The oni, who had been gathering all his strength and waiting for an opportunity, swung his bat.

    “Damage… … !”

    “Brother… … !”

    Shigure and Tagame opened their eyes wide and expressed shock at the sight of him, but Doyujin, who was actually being attacked, simply continued to think calmly.

    ‘So this is your last chance to practice your skills… … ‘

    Click-

    ‘Let’s try to focus a little more this time.’
