Chapter 251: Crisis Part 2
An ancient and solemn shrine appeared before everyone’s eyes. On both sides of the shrine’s entrance, there were stone statues resembling foxes. The shrine didn’t enshrine ordinary gods but rather Fox Immortals, the kind with nine tails.
True shrines tended to reject Devils, Fallen Angels, and other foreign beings. However, that insignificant rejection had no effect on Tenraku and Raynare. Even Asia could endure it easily. They followed everyone around, taking pictures and exploring the shrine, and even paid their respects to the Fox Immortals.
Tenraku naturally had no interest in Fox Immortals or anything of the sort, nor would he pay his respects to them. If anything, he might as well have the other party pay their respects to him.
After the girls had their fill of fun and the day was growing late, Tenraku gathered the Kiryuu Aika and the others to prepare to return to the hotel. However…
“Yōkai…!”
Someone suddenly screamed, and everyone noticed that many strange individuals wearing Fox masks like priests had appeared around them. Not only that, but many bird-like figures with black wings and bird-like heads, wielding steel forks, flew out from the nearby forest.
Leaving aside the Fox Priests, those beings flying in the sky looked exactly like the Yōkai called Karasu-Tengu that often appeared in animations!
The continuously appearing Fox Priests and Karasu-Tengu surrounded the crowd at the shrine. Many people were frightened and screaming, but the girls from the Kendo Club remained relatively calm.
They had witnessed Tenraku, Rias, and the others fighting against Kokabiel and were aware of the existence of Devils, Angels, and even Yōkai in this world. Thus, the sudden appearance of these Yōkai didn’t make them panic like the others.
