Chapter 2425: Gashadokuro

"YOU DAMN INTRUDERSSSS...!"

"That's a Gashadokuro?! I can't believe my eyes!"

Gashadokuro, in Japanese Mythology, they're gigantic Skeleton Yokai, made from up from the skeletons and bones of hundreds of people that died from terrible things. Usually starvation, in a war, or anything tragic. They're powerful and enormous, and it is said on its original myth that they once ravaged Kyoto.

Usually, they're beings of pure hatred and embodiments of destruction and revenge, who only live to destroy everything at their step to appease the agonizing memories it possesses from all those that made them.

Matsuo's expression as he saw the gigantic skeleton wasn't beyond Frank or Harumi's expectations, seeing how he was such a Yokai freak, he was thrilled to see such a powerful, huge Yokai such as a Gashadokuro out of nowhere.

"I'LL CRUSH YOU TO SMITHREENS AND EAT YER BONES!"

The Gashadokuro opened his giant skeletal jaws and gathered phantasmal flames, which it quickly released, attempting to burn them first before crushing them with his giant bony fists.

FLUOOOSH!

The flames spread across the wooden labyrinthian house, as Matsuo, Harumi, and Frank ran away as quickly as they could from the incoming phantasmal inferno!

"They're phantom flames! Don't let them touch you! Your body won't be burned that much but your soul will be burned greatly!" Matsuo said.

"I know, I know!" Harumi sighed, quickly conjuring several droplets of blood coming from a self-inflicted wound in the palm of her hand, which she made rotate around rapidly.

FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!

Then, she sent them flying towards the Gashadokuro's jaws, before they suddenly began to grow larger and inflate until...

"{Blood Explosion}!"

BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!

Three powerful crimson explosions engulfed the giant skeleton's bony jaws, blowing them away and abruptly stopping the giant yokai from releasing his flames.

"GRAAACCCK! MY JAWS...!"

The giant skeleton cried in pain, grabbing its own face in confusion. It seemed that despite being made out of bones, when their bones broke it hurt for them.

"It stopped! Now! Matsuo, Frank! Bombard it!"

Harumi gave them the opportunity and they didn't waste it, as Matsuo conjured a bright sphere of light resembling a miniature sun.

"Oh Goddess of the Sun, Amaterasu-No-Kami! Grant to me a speck of your sunshine brilliance!" roared Matsuo.

"{Divine Miniature Sun: Mabushi Tatyo}!"

The small sun reached the Gashadokuro, blowing up its left arm and shoulders and covering half of its body on deadly divine flames of the sun.

BOOOM!

it with his hands...

However!

Crack, crack...!

"UGH?!"

CRAAASH!

His hands broke apart into countless pieces, as the spear continued its trajectory piercing his massive skull and shattering its Yokai Core into tiny fragments.

BOOOM!

"GRUUUAAAGGHH!"

The giant skeleton screamed, as it began falling apart into pieces. The cursed ghostly spirits dissipated instantly as well, the gigantic Yokai was dead!

ВАААМ!

As it collapsed, Harumi and Matsuo glanced at Frank with disbelief. They couldn't believe to

see what he did.

Frank walked towards the large hole where the Gashadokuro appeared and glanced at the spear he had created temporarily.

"I gave it a mythical name, and it gained a speck of that mythical weapon's power..." Frank gasped. "It truly worked... Can I retrieve it? Maybe I could- Ah."

However, to his disappointment, the spear quickly dissipated into ashes and disappeared.

"You possess a Naming ability of such power?!" Harumi wondered, gasping in disbelief. "I

had no idea..."

"Me neither, really," said Matsuo, noticing Harumi's angered glare. "Even though it was a cheap magical imitation, by naming that magical spear it somehow gained its appearance... Is

it still there?!"

"Nah it's gone," said Frank. "But yeah, I have a Magical Naming ability... though it's costly in Mana when used... This is honestly the first time I did this though... I'm also surprised it

worked."

"You literally manifested a fragment of a powerful Mythical Treasure," said Harumi. "It's not

something any normal person, be it mage or whatever, could ever do... Just who are you,

Frank?"

"I... I'm just a normal guy, really," Frank smiled. "I think..."n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
