Mythical Slayer: Mythical Girls Contract

Just as Kai thought before, the two people behind him began to whisper to each other as he began to eat his meal.

He couldn't make out what they said, however, but he was still able to guess they were talking about him when the word Ranga and duel came up at first. They suspected him of being the one who beat Ranga.

While he didn't mind exposing himself, he planned to visit the Slayer organization in the US with Griffin once he returned. To be found by the Slayer organization before he could visit him made him feel a bit of a headache as he wasn't fully ready to confront them directly yet.

If he wanted to blame someone, he could only blame Shuten Douji, who made the Slayers behind him deduce his identity. Still, the other party was the Oni god herself, while he was no one.

'Well, what happened happens, I guess.' He put a dumpling into his mouth, and the salty and rich flavor of spices filled his mouth. 'At least I can enjoy delicious food.'

No one but the Slayers knew what their next move was. So Kai could only prepare for what happened next without much expectation.

If he was found, then he was found. He already planned to make himself known by the Supernatural World nonetheless, as he had built his reputation up among Onis and Spirit Foxes.

Shuten Douji's concert was still ongoing. She sang while going around the stage like a real idol. Heck, some backup dancer showed up behind her and danced together. The lighting was great too; it was like a real modern-day idol concert.

"I wonder how much they spent on that stage alone." He said as he ate the last food on his table.

At that moment, the crowd below shouted excitedly. It was loud enough to make the building tremble. Shuten Douji waved her hand on the stage with a big smile.

"I still can't believe she's the Oni god." He said with a bitter smile.

At that time, he received an answer from a person behind him.

"To be honest, I also think like that."

Kai turned around, and it was the Slayer who answered him. The Slayers lowered their hood and showed his middle-aged face, short black hair and eyes, and soft beard. The other Slayer was a young woman with long blonde hair with black eyes. Probably her hair was dyed as the root of her hair was black.

"Sorry for suddenly answering your question. It's just that I see you're alone, and we're a bit interested in a human sitting on the second floor without any companion. As you can see, we are located in a quiet corner compared to the rest of the people on the second floor."

What the man said was reasonable. The seating arrangement of the terrace was divided by race. The Devil's table was on the other side of the corner while the vampire was near the door, where a shade was provided to protect them from the direct light.

Then there were them, three humans on different tables at the corner of the terrace with a direct view of the stage.

"I will believe what you said," Kai replied while looking at the man with wary eyes. He wouldn't question them if they approached him with no hostile intention.

"Hahaha, you're wary of us because we whispered to each other earlier, huh? Forgive us. We were still unsure how to approach you. Your description fit the one who beat the young Oni Ranga a few days ago, but we were still not sure about that. So when Shuten Douji called out to you, then…"

"You're sure it is me and decided to approach me?" He finished the man's sentence and shrugged his shoulders.

"That's correct." The man affirmed with a nod. "If we somehow offend you, we are truly sorry." He then bowed his head a little, and so was the girl with him.

From their features, they were Japanese people. And Kai knew that bowing to others was a way for a Japanese person to show respect and ask for forgiveness from others. If they were not some shady guys, then they really meant to apologize.

"Don't worry about it." Kai brushed it off like nothing. "However, I am still in a festival mood right now, though. I would appreciate it if you save your question for another day."

"I understand." The man nodded. "Excuse my behavior. My name is Kuga Sojuro, my codename is Kamaitachi. She's my disciple, Hino Asahi. Because she's still under my tutelage, she has no codename yet."

"It's nice to meet you." The girl greeted Kai shyly with reserved behavior.

Was she not used to men? Or was she just a shy girl? Anyway, they had introduced themselves, and it was just right for Kai to do the same.

"I am Kai. For my codename… I have no codename yet as I haven't registered with the Slayer organization."

"I see." The man, Sojuro, nodded and smiled softly. "Please do register, though. It is mandatory for a human in Supernatural World to register in the Slayer organization. You will not be forced to do anything, just… it is for data and to make sure you don't do anything illegal."

"I plan to register once I return," Kai replied and smiled in kind.

"Is that so? Then it's good." Sojuro said. "And by the way, thank you for answering my question. May I know when I can contact you to ask about… something related to your duel with Ranga, the successor of Oni Village?"

"Hmm…" Kai hummed as he stroked his chin. Oni Festival was held for only a day and night. The day would be filled with attractions, while there would be a drink and feast at night.

Meaning tomorrow Kai would have nothing to do, but he had to return to New York to attend his restaurant. And there was also the matter with Shuten Douji…

"How about tonight? Let's talk while we have a drink." He made a motion of sipping a cup with his hand.

"Great idea." Sojuro seemed to also appreciate it as his smile widened. "Then…"

At that moment, before the middle-aged Slayer could finish his sentence, the restaurant rumbled once again. It was shaking as hard as it could, and it wasn't from Shuten Douji's concert. It was from a drum that echoed in the sky.

Kai immediately checked the stage, and Shuten Douji also stopped alongside the crowd. They looked at the sky, and he also raised his head. What he saw made his jaw drop, and leap from the chair. Something terrible had happened.

There was a tear in the sky that resembled an eye with a diameter of around 10 to 20 meters; it wasn't clear due to it being high in the sky.

He could see a deep abyss inside the tear; it looked like a gate to another dimension. Then something appeared. Not just one, but many. Black shadows began to drop from the tear. All of them were Malices of various sizes.

"It seems like we need to pause our talk for today, Mr. Sojuro."

"I agree," Sojuro replied with a nod as he stood up. His voice had a hint of seriousness.
