Chapter 15: Other Functions of Limestone
Dark clouds gathered densely, lightning flashed repeatedly, as if welcoming the arrival of an entity descending from mythology. Magical energy swirled wildly in the Tokyo sky, forming dimensional cracks invisible to ordinary humans. Only those who understood the mystical world—wizards, onmyoji, and supernatural beings—could sense this extraordinary presence.
The figure descended with divine grace. Long silver hair flowed freely, occasionally blown by the night wind. A pair of sharp red eyes radiated authority and immense power, like a warrior who had fought hundreds of battles without ever tasting defeat.
He wore traditional warrior attire, dominated by black, gold, and red. His sleeveless robe was adorned with golden ornaments, giving the impression of a majestic hero. A black cloak with intricate embroidery fluttered on his shoulders, adding a mysterious and intimidating aura. A blood-red belt encircled his waist, while golden armor adorned his shoulders and left arm, emphasizing that this figure was not just a god, but a legendary warrior.
In his hand, he held a bow. It lacked the glitter of gold or precious gems, just a simple bow with fine carvings on its surface. At first glance, the weapon seemed ordinary, not reflecting the status of a divine weapon. However, anyone who understood the mystical world would know—this simplicity indicated that the bow was no ordinary weapon.
The god descended slowly, his feet finally landing on the rooftop of one of Tokyo's skyscrapers. His sharp gaze fixed in a certain direction, as if he could see something invisible to ordinary eyes.
"The aura of that troublesome monkey is coming from over there..."
Without wasting time, his figure vanished in an instant, leaving behind a flash of lightning where he had stood.

Ren sipped from a canned red bean drink, savoring the combination of sweetness and slight bitterness on his tongue. He pulled out his phone and sent a brief message to Itsuki.
A few seconds later, his phone vibrated. A short reply from Itsuki appeared.
