At the clear bottom of the water, Toyojima Taito saw a shimmering object, shining brightly amidst the water's gleam.
"That, the Ama-no-Kagami, it should be that."
After seeing his lover, Toyojima Taito gained stronger faith and courage.
He must take Yuri away from this haunted place.
Toyojima cautiously approached the pool.
Clang clang!
The bells tied to the ropes sounded again, their echo seemed much shriller.
In an instant, the surrounding temperature plummeted, the moisture in the air clung to the skin, ice-cold and piercing.
Following that, in Toyojima Taito's sight, the pool water of the Misogi suddenly changed color, becoming turbid as if something was stirring violently at the bottom.
Then, strands of wet black thread, like dense long worms, crawled up from the water to the shore.
"What is this... Hair!?"
Toyojima Taito clearly saw what was spreading from the water.
It was hair.
Black hair pouring out like a tide.
