The Bride Of The Sacred Forest God
Chapter 96. Sources of Bad News in the Bag Market. 2

“Oi! How dare you say such a thing with such confidence during the day!”

In a fit of annoyance, that sentence came out of Nagi's mouth. Even Ginko did not hold back from getting angry.

“You can't spread such fake news about Nushi-sama. We both warn you all.”

The two youko are starting to look serious. They were emotional hearing the crowd. Nagi was even too emotional to get close to the bird-stealthy man and held the collar of his clothes.

“How dare you speak so of Aragaki-sama. I hope, you guys are not bored of living.”

“Hiii!!! A– forgive me, sir! I really didn't mean that! I swear!”

“I don't need an oath from you, old bird. How dare you spread the news in a place that clearly belongs to Aragaki-sama. If the intention of dying sooner, tell the truth so I can make it easier.”

“Ampun! We really don't mean that! We...we also heard it from a demon who just passed by here!”

“What?!” the two youko are so shocked now. Nagi took her hand off the collar of the bird's stealth suit and listened to the story.

“Ka–we were standing up and talking about something else here. There was not the slightest discussion about Aragaki-sama at the beginning.”

“But, suddenly there was a demon who said that Aragaki-sama walked with the girl yesterday in this place and she told me that the girl is a candidate for ‘bride’ who arrived about two weeks ago.”

“Then..he says that the girl is cunning. He even sees that the girl is trying to tease Aragaki-sama with her words and sweetness for using some kind of theatricality.”

“The smile also said that he had heard from Aragaki-sama residence directly that his ‘bride’ would-be girl almost poisoned and killed him.”

Nagi and Ginko look at each other. In their minds, it was clear to remember what their master said.

[I've heard bad news when I went to visit Jorogumo. There was news that the girl was a sneaky girl who tried to kill me like everyone else]

[The bad news about the arrival of the dirty girl from the village is sure to spread quickly. However, the news that he was going to poison me was something that many people should not know about].

Nagi clenched her hands in anger.

“How dare the demon spread the news about the village girl and my master like that. It's unforgivable!” nagi's annoyance in the heart

Ginko is calmer than Nagi, though she is just as angry. However, finding the truth was more important to him at this moment.

“If you can tell, what does the demon look like and where does he go?”

“It...”

“…”

All the demons that were there looked at each other like confusion. They like not knowing or arguably no longer remember what and where the demon went.

“We don't know.”

“This is weird. I don't remember what he was like. Though he was here some time ago.”

“How can it?”

“...” both youko were speechless with a cold expression

They observed all the demons looked like they were not lying, but their sense of emotion was also unstoppable. Nagi even threatened them.

“This time, I will forgive you. But not for a second time. If this news reaches the spread, you will be punished and must be ready to get out of Higashi no Mori.”

“Ba–good!!”

All the crowd dispersed. They ran because they were scared.

It is now clear that someone is spreading it. However, Nagi and Ginko were unable to get information about who the news spreader was.

“This is really a serious problem, Nagi. It's true what you said. This demon seems to have unusual characteristics.”

“He can even make others not remember him. This is really weird. What kind of demon might you think, Ginko?” ask Nagi

“I'm not sure. We have to report this to Nushi-sama.”

“I agree. Then, we're back now!”

Just wanting to run, Ginko keeps him away.

“Why are you holding me back?!”

“We have to shop first. Otherwise, you and I will not have lunch. Not forgetting that the bowl broke a lot?”

“...” Ginko stared at Nagi with a strange flat face

They finally decided to shop first before returning and reporting.

From a distance, a demon was seen watching from a distance.

“It was the loyal servant of Aragaki-sama, Nagi-sama and Ginko-sama. If I manage to follow them later, I might be able to find out about the girl.”

“Thank God I saw them before they reached the market. So I can spread the news like that time.”

“Aruji-sama should get fresh blood of the candidate ‘bride’ it. Whatever happens, they are not acceptable to Aragaki-sama. Let all the hatred of the ruler continue to strengthen in man.”

A few moments before…

When that stealth figure had just walked out of the dark place on the other side of the forest, he immediately went towards the Aragaki residence. As he was about to arrive, he sensed that there was something like a hot wall in a part of the forest.

“Akh!!”

That figure was in pain. He had a wound on his hand.

“What is this?! Why can there be a barrier here?!”

He scanned all the places and surrounded the surrounding area.

“Sial!! This must be all because I was realized by Nagi-sama! This kekkai, besides this is reimei no kekkai installed by Aragaki-sama.”

“Cannot be destroyed if not from within! And again, only the person Aragaki-sama thinks of can break this barrier.”

“In this case, how do I know who can destroy the power?”

After a long tour, the stealth figure finally stopped near the entrance of the Aragaki residence.

“My intention is to watch her up close. But it seems that for now it cannot. I have to see if maybe someone will come out or not from that place.”

After a long wait, there were two people who came out of that place quickly. It was Nagi and Ginko who were running at a fairly fast speed.

“Two loyal servants Aragaki-sama! I have to follow him!”

As he followed the two, they briefly paused and discussed something.

“Sense something?” ask Ginko

“No, but I still feel that the unknown stealth figure must still be on the market.”

“You may be right, Nagi. Moreover, chances are, he is the perpetrator who told bad rumors about Reda-sama and Aragaki-sama.”

“You're right. We better stay alert. Come, Ginko.”

Both are back to running. After that, the demon figure finally revealed its form. It was Ara-mitama.

“So apparently. The rumors that I had spread among the residents had already been heard all the way to Aragaki-sama's ears. Maybe this can be used.”

“By re-spreading even worse rumors regarding his relationship with Aragaki-sama, he will definitely hate the girl.”

“Yesterday I followed and watched him. He also seemed to have gotten very close to Aragaki-sama. Maybe this can be used.”

Ara-mitama starts putting on her smile, “I'll make Aruji-sama get the girl. Bad rumors to the point of giving poison to stupid girls before I have done.”

“I have also managed to make the girls hated by torturing the beloved little fox Aragaki-sama until finally Aragaki-sama hates them.”

“Will I do all the way so that there are no humans here and Aragaki-sama should still hate humans.”

***

While in a place not far away, Ara-mitama mingled with other demons, spreading all the bad news about the prospective girl ‘bride’ and expanding on all the bad rumors.

From the beginning, he was the one behind all the rumors Ryuunosuke had heard when he first brought Reda to the market, he was also the one responsible for the torture that the girls had done earlier on the little fox and he was also the one who made them into Nue's devil food.

“It was all for Aruji-sama. Aruji-sama must have that fresh blood to maintain his strength.”
