Fingertip Exorcist ch1

So you're really going,
Elize?

You'll be facing many trouble up ahead alone.
Not to mention those demons you're so bad with.

...I've made up my mind, Mama.
In order to change my life,

and for the victory of mankind,
There's no way I'll lose
to some mere demons!

Ah, a bear.
A demon!? [tn: demon = akuma, ah, a bear = a kuma]
Will she really be okay?
Hmm~...
my journey has begun!!

The journey of Elize, who is bad with demons, has begun!

Yoisashi Village
The harvest festival sure is lively, isn't it?

Why don't we take a look around while we're here, Chloe?
Not interested.
Eh~!?

There you go again!
The Father told you to expand your horizons!
Hah...
Shut up, crucifix.
The name's not crucifix! It's Bene!

Hey, who's that?
Who wears such dark clothes at a festival...?
!

Oh, that's the uniform for the St. Edele religious organisation.
You mean she's a top class exorcist?
She's not what I expected.
Scary...

You're not scary! You've just got a sharp glare is all!
Ah!?

Woah, scary!
Hagyaah!

I am
sho shorry~

It's fine. You let me borrow your shower, after all.
Uuh.
So kind. As expected from one of St. Edele's.

I figured it out right away from your uniform.
You're an elite among exorcists, right?
You could say that! This girl especially is super strong!
Heh~ ...Hm?

Wait, does that mean there's demons in this village?
Doesn't the fact a St. Edele class exorcist is here make me an average Jane!? Should I even be here!? Should I run?
Calm down!

Relax. I'm just looking around.
Phew.
We're visiting various places on a business trip.
This girl is Chloe. I'm Bene.

I take it from your appearance you're a lady of the church too?
I'm Elize.
A 17-year old exorcist-in-training from Asful Village.

Oh.
She's a year older than you, Chloe.
Oh~? Does that make me your big sister!?
...

Bene's 2000 years old.
Eh? An old ha-...
What was that just now!?

Hey, Chloe. How about you and Eli become friends while you're at it?
Friends?

The Father asked me to support you
so that you'd be able to make friends.
I'm counting on you~
Ho ho~
How do you become friends?

You basically do the things you like and things you find fun together!
I see...
That sounds good.

My range of training exercises is wider with two people.
Adadadada!?

Hah~ Hah~
Th-That wasn't what I had in mind...
By the way, why did you come to this village, Eli?
On a business trip like we are?

Nope! I can't exorcise demons.
Eh? Is that so?
I know what I said earlier,
but I don't actually plan on becoming an exorcist.

In the near future, my exorcist work will disappear...
or maybe it's more accurate to say that I will disappear.
Phew...
If you're curious, I could give you more details...

Is that girl okay?
They're not interested at all!!

Look, that girl over there...
Ah.
You're right!

Hey, are you okay!?
!?
Hey!
This is the second floor!!
I'll be fine~

I can handle this no prob-...
Off!
Told you so!

Is your head okay?
You're saying that because you're worried about me, right!?

I'm sorry for making you worry about me...
I can't leave a girl crying by herself!

Are your shoulders injured?
No... It doesn't hurt,
but I can't move them naturally anymore...

No matter how hard I try, I can't raise them any higher than this!
The heck!?

She must be older than she looks...
No, it's not shoulder pain!

I need to perform in the harvest festival's dance tonight!
I must!
And I'm guessing you can't dance like that.
She might injure herself is she forces it.

But what will they say if I skip it...?
The dance is meaningless unless all villagers pray together.
Don't worry! Leave it to me!

I'll cure you
with my acupressure!

Have you been to the hospital?
Ah, yes, but they didn't find anything unusual...
Hey!!
Don't ignore me!!

What is this "acupressure"?
Some kind of cookery?
Something you put in a pot? [tn: pot = tsubo, acupressure = tsubo-oshi]
Geez~
Not in the slightest!

People have lots of holes called "pressure points" all over their bodies.
Pushing them can heal physical and mental ailments.

Isn't that too good to be true?
Fufun.
Just watch me.
Let's see. For shoulder ailments...

Push the middle between the base of the neck and the edge of the shoulder,
and hold it down for about five seconds.
Do it gently so that it's a pleasant kind of pain!

How is it different from the town masseuse?
That's just rubbing all over the body!
Acupressure is a health regime from a far Eastern continent!
Amazing, huh?
Huh...?

I feel lighter all of a sudden...?
You should be fine now!

See!?
Ooh!

You healed it just from touching it!!
You're amazing, miss!!
Phew...
I did pretty good for my first time...

Um
Actually, my throat is acting up too.
Can you heal that with acupressure too!?
Eh? Ah, sure, of course!

Here we go!
Hmph!
Eeh!?

Hey, are you okay!?
Awawa
Y-Yes.
This will heal me, right...?
Erm...

Actually, shoulder acupressure is the only thing I know.
Tehe
It's not okay at all!!

I'm sorry!
I haven't fully deciphered this book yet!
Are you okay?

cough...

Y-Yes...

You tryin' to kill me, you bitch?
Don't look down on me or I'll ■■■■ you up.
!?

Huh!? That's not what I normally...
Elize, you dumbass! You pathetic little ■■■■■■■■■■■!!
It's getting even worse.
Wh-Wh-Wh-What do I do!?

When you're not sure, just try everything!!
Owowowow!?
Stop! Stop!

What if things get even weirder!?
But I don't know any other methods~!
I-I'm just fine...

See? I'm so flexible...
GYAAAAH!!

N-No, this goes beyond being just flexible...
Ufufu.
I should have no problem with the dance...

Cut down all those fools♪
And paint Yoisashi Village with their blood... Fuhi
You're gonna sing such a disturbing song!?

Fufu. I'll cut you all down♪
Eh!?

Ahahahaha
Adadadada!?
...
I-Isn't she acting kinda weird...?

Please do something, Chloe-chan!
Hah...
If I must.

Let blood rain down on Yoisashi Village♪
Here's some rain.
You were listening!?

!?

Gwaaah!?
Honestly.

Even an exorcist-in-training should notice this much.
Heh?
This is... holy water?

Now then...
Are you prepared to be cut down?
Demon.

p10

Heh...? A demon...?
It was probably trying to scare you, Elize,
but it got too full of itself.

...Kuku
Yeah... That's right.
It'll be a problem if this body was messed with any further...

but that stupid woman over...
Ah...

No, you're wrong... I didn't wet myself from getting scared.
This is holy water.
No, that amount is...
IT'S HOLY WATER!!

Serves you right!
For all that unnecessary stuff you did!
Eep!?

Honestly...
I was planning on using this woman to ruin the harvest festival,

but you lot had to butt in.

I think I'll start
by killing you all!

Will Elize be of any use...? Continued on the next page!!

Fingertip Exorcist ch2

I think I'll start by killed you all!
Hyeeeh...!

Hurry up and do something, Chloe-chan!
Alright already. Just go over there.
How pathetic!

Seeing you like that made it all click.
You're "Pisspants Elize", aren't you?
!!
Pisspants?

H-Huh~? Of course not!
It's not like I was traumatised by demons at a young age which left me with a tendency to piss myself or anything!?
Thanks for the explanation.

Elize the demon exercist. Her weakness: demons.

This bitch is still pissing herself at 17 years old!?
Gyahaha
That's the last thing I wanna hear!
Now now. Just leave it to us.

This'll be wrapped us instantly, right, Chloe?
Yeah.

I am Chloe, child of St. Edele.
I pledge to thee, God...

In thy name, I will exorcise this demon and bring peace to this land.
Who are you saying pissed themselves?!
She said nothing of the sort!

You said "piss" just now, didn't you!?
Huh?
A-Are you talking about where she said "and bring PEACE to this land"...?

[TN: In Japanese, Chloe says "akumaharai wo shikkou" (exorcise this demon), but Elize mishears "wo shikkou" as "oshikko" (piss).]

Hmm... I see.
You think I'm an idiot too, Chloe-chan...

Bullies need
to be punished!
You're that upset!?

Move it, Elize.
Keep screwing around and we'll all become puddles of blood.
Puddles...?
Just stop talking, Chloe!!

[tn: Here, Chloe says "morenaku zennin yarareruzo" (she'll kill all of us without fail), but all Elize hears is "more" (leak)]

!

Wah!?

No!! Chloe-chan!!
Kh...
Well aren't you well-behaved, letting yourself get caught so easily!

I've killed plenty of those St. Edele humans before.
Don't think you'll die an easy death.
Tch.

Waah~ Let go, you dummy!
Hah
Not a chance!

I'll kill you after I'm done with her!
!!

Then I'll step outside... kuku
The rest I'll leave to your imagination.
No! Not the villagers...

I'm gonna devour every little
thing from the food carts.
You're just having your fill of the festival!

I can't help it!
You gotta go through a lot of legal formalities to come to the human world...
Then don't come!
Eli! We need to help Chloe right now...!

That's right!
But there's nothing to throw at her...
I don't mean with physical attacks! With exorcisim!

Exorcism!? No way!
I've never done it successfully before. There's no way I can do it by myself...
Then look at that!

Which is scarier? That girl or the demon!?
They're both pretty scary!

Elize...
Hyesh!?

Are you fine with losing to that demon?

If you run away here, nothing will change.

You're on this journey because you want something to change, aren't you?

...
That's right.

I'm not going to lose
to some drooling demon!!

In the name of God, I bessech you.
Holy Light,
cleanse the darkness!

Bible Corner Attack!!
So it's a physical attack after all!!

You trying to get yourself killed, you fool!?
You're the fool!

If I do this, it's not scary at all!
Wha!?

Nyeh nyeh! Demons are no big deal!
Hey.
Be careful.
The holy water from earlier still hasn't...
Ah.

Ugh!!
Told you so!!

Hey, are you okay?
My bwain is finished...
Hmph. That all you got...?
There's no way someone like you can exorcise

m-...

GWAAAAAH!
!?

Wh-What's this?
It's like electricity is jolting through my body...!?
Hah... Hah...

Geh~ It feels gross~
Chloe, that's...!
Demons can't reside within a healthy body.

In other words, whatever she did cured that girl of her ailments.
D-Don't tell me...
that was acupressure just now!?

S-Screw you! A shock like that means nothing to me...!
That so?

Then I should exorcise you in a more appropriate manner.
Eep!!

W-Wait!
At least let me get a taste of the food
carts...

Savor it.
The taste of defeat, I mean.

C-Curse... you...
Kya~
Amazing! You beat it in an instant!

Thanks to the opening you gave me, Elize.
You did great!
Y-You think so?
Ehehe

That finishing catchphrase was awesome~!
"Savor it. The taste of defeat, I mean."
Kya~!
...

Would you like a taste too?
Adadada
That's not a pressure point!

Thank you so much!
I'm glad you're back to normal.
Yes! I'm all better thanks to you two!

And it's not just my body. My heart feels lighter too.
The moment you hit me with your chin, all my nerves melted away...
!

Then this part must be
a pressure point that's effective against worries and nerves!

Pressure point that works against worries and nerves<3
Awesome~

I want to tell everyone!
...Yeah!

Hehe...
I'm one step closer to annihilating the demons.
I might just be amazing.
Hit me with your chin too.
Me too.
You've started a weird custom, though.

Well then, now that's all safely resolved,
let's go watch the dance togehter, Chloe-cha...

Wait, huh!?
Hey, hey! Where are you going!?

My business is done here.
But it's dangerous at night!

Don't worry.
I have this.
So you can use it like that, huh...
Ooh...

But well, I guess that'll keep you safe at night!
Let's go~
Yeah...
Hm?

Why are you following me?
Eh?
It's because I wanna support you with my acupressure, obviously!

You get to focus on your job,
Right?
and I don't have to exorcise demons myself, so it's Win-Win, right?

Farewell.
Gyaaah!
Wait!
Please, bring me with yooooou!

The journey of these two (and Bene) beings... or not!? We're awaiting your feedback!
