Tokyo: My Hundred Demon Scroll

"..."

With the illusion gone, the chefs were naturally freed from the illusion as well, but their perception was distorted as a result.

"Forehead…"

On the other side, Kong Huan looked at Gu Yun, who had summoned her directly to her side, and she knew something was wrong.

Miss Tianhu instinctively wanted to run away, but with her master by her side, she dared not mobilize any of her spiritual power and could only look at Gu Yun with a wronged expression.

However, before Kong Huan could make a move, the fox tail behind her fell into Gu Yun's hands.

"嘤!!"

Kong Huan's expression changed drastically as if she had been electrocuted: "No, don't grab that! Let go, Master, please let go! I beg you!"

"Ok?"

Gu Yun was puzzled, but seeing that Kong Huan was not faking it, but had clearly been caught out, he quickly let go.

"Oh, that scared me to death."

Miss Tianhu collapsed to the ground, her whole body still trembling slightly, her eyes filled with sorrow.

It turns out that the fox's tail is the key to absorbing spiritual energy and converting it into magical power.

However, their tails are also their most vulnerable spot, being particularly sensitive.

Of course, not the entire fox tail, but the base of the tail, which is arguably the most vulnerable spot for a fox spirit.

Once this weakness is exploited, the fox spirit will become weak and unable to resist.

Of course, this applies to Gu Yun.

If it's someone else, the spirit fox will go into a state of stress and attack the offender frantically.

However, because of Gu Yun's contract, Kong Huan was unable to attack or harm him, and thus could only fall into an uncontrollable breakdown.

"So, this is your weakness, Xiao Kong?"

Gu Yunzhen didn't do it on purpose, nor would she deliberately try to exploit Kong Huan's weaknesses just to punish her.

"This is the first time I've realized how terrifying it is to be caught by your spirit tail."

Kong Huan finally calmed down her inner turmoil and said aggrievedly, "I thought I was going to die."

Even now, Miss Tianhu feels weak all over, especially her legs, which she can't muster any strength for.

"Feel sorry."

Now that Gu Yun already knows, he certainly won't bully Kong Huan anymore: "But you still have the nerve to complain!"

"You stole my lunchbox and you're acting all aggrieved!"

"Woo~~"

Seeing the veins bulging on Gu Yun's forehead, Kong Huan desperately used her charm technique, which, combined with her weakness that had been exposed, added a touch of pitiful and tragic beauty to Miss Tianhu.

"Okay, I knew it wouldn't work."

The illusionary spells have no effect on Gu Yun.

It wasn't that it was ineffective, but rather that she instinctively refrained from using it on Gu Yun.

This is the self-imposed limitation of the shikigami; they cannot harm their master.

"I know I was wrong, please forgive me."

Knowing she couldn't escape, Kong Huan lay down on the ground, transforming into a celestial fox. She then turned to her side, revealing her soft belly.

A dog's belly is its most vulnerable spot, and even a dog like Konghuan is no exception.

By adopting this posture, it is clear that Miss Tianhu is yielding to Gu Yun and admitting her mistake.

"Xiao Kong, you really are..."

Gu Yun was both amused and exasperated. He casually touched the belly of the Heavenly Fox.

"Haha, it itches so much."

I have to admit, fox fur is really comfortable and feels amazing.

But seeing Kong Huan's pitiful appearance with drooping ears, Gu Yun couldn't bear to say anything more to her.

In a sense, Miss Tianhu's charm did not fail; she simply exploited Gu Yun's soft heart and then unleashed her full power.

"Let me make this clear first, I still won't use the power of words this time."

Gu Yun said, "But I hope that Xiao Kong, you won't steal other people's food in the future. That's really rude."

"Yes, yes, I remember."

Kong Huan truly remembered; she would make mistakes, but those were things Gu Yun hadn't mentioned.

Since the master didn't say anything, it's naturally not her fault.

However, Kong Huan would take any request that Gu Yun explicitly made seriously. Just like stealing food, she would never steal food again.

"Hehe, little master is the best."

Seeing that Gu Yun's anger had subsided, Kong Huan immediately transformed back into a human girl, then hugged Gu Yun in her arms and kept playing tricks on her.

Even the fox tail obediently fell into Gu Yun's hands.

As long as you don't grab the entire base of the fox's tail in your hand, but only touch a part of it, Konghuan won't be afraid.

"You guy."

Gu Yun had completely gotten used to it. That was just Kong Huan's personality—mischievous and always causing trouble for others, but never annoying.

"Are you sure I can pet your tail?"

“Don’t try to exploit weaknesses, just touch them gently,” Miss Tianhu blushed, “It’s actually quite comfortable.”

"alright."

Gu Yun said, "Then this is your punishment: turn into a fox."

"Hey hey!!"

When dogs and cats are petted by their owners, it's not punishment at all; it's practically a massage.

Gu Yun naturally knew this, so while massaging Kong Huan, he continued to educate the fox spirit: "Even if you want to steal food in the future, you'll have to pay for it."

Having paid, at least it wasn't considered stealing, so Gu Yun didn't completely shut the door shut: "By the way, where did you go today?"

"Woo?"

Kong Huan jolted awake, the ears on her head twitching, her eyes unfocused: "I, I just, I just went to the school cafeteria..."

"canteen?!"

Gu Yun exclaimed in surprise, "You went there to steal food!!"

"you"

Helplessly covering his face, Gu Yun shook his head with a wry smile: "Never mind, I'll have Sister Naiyang tally up the losses."

Gu Yun must compensate the school for its losses.

Even if it's a paranormal event, what can you do when the person who did it is your own fox?

The hole dug by my fox, Gu Yun, must be filled even if it means kneeling.

"One hundred and eighty bento boxes?"

Listening to Kong Huan's account, Gu Yun's eyes twitched slightly: "Can you eat this much? Oh no, you, how long have you had the cafeteria chefs make you set meals?"

The school's meal service is limited; they might prepare a little extra, but it's impossible for them to prepare 180 extra boxes.

This also means that the chef, who should have been off work, spent an entire afternoon working on the project for Kong Huan, without any pay.

"This wave won't do."

Ultimately, it caused trouble for others, and Kong Huan even cast illusions on them, altering everyone's perceptions and memories.

Influenced by his grandfather, Gu Yun doesn't consider himself a good person, but he also disdains doing evil.

"Okay, okay."

Feeling comfortable after the massage, Miss Tianhu transformed back into a human girl. She took out a paper fan, covered her mouth, and chuckled, "I gave them a small blessing from the Inari God. Their luck will be very good for the next month. Is that enough compensation?"

"Okay, then there's no problem."

"You really know your stuff, Konghuan."

Gu Yun knew that Kong Huan's actions, though seemingly nonsensical, were actually the result of careful consideration.

Is Kūgen a deity, or the Inari god who protects commerce and the economy?

The gods will eat some of your lunchbox and then send you a month of blessings, bringing you good luck.

This is no prank.

If those people outside knew, they'd probably be kneeling and clinging to Konghuan's leg, pleading, "My Lord, trample on me! Trample on me as you please!"

Konghuan: You pervert! Put down your lunchbox and get out!

In short, this matter has come to an end.

Miss Tianhu also developed a code of ethics: if she steals something to eat, she has to pay for it; if she causes trouble for someone, she'll offer a blessing in return; in any case, she will never let the other person suffer a loss.

Moreover, this kind of thing is actually a bit like Santa Claus's gift box.

A mysterious and mischievous celestial fox occasionally visits a family, steals their food, and then bestows good fortune upon them.

So this wasn't stealing food.

If deities eat offerings, can that be called stealing?

"It's in the nature of fox spirits and tanuki to enjoy fooling humans, and it's really hard to change."

Gu Yun sighed, but for some reason felt that he had forgotten someone.

Little White: So I'm not a fox.

I'm shivering with cold. When will I, the White Lord, be able to stand up again?

Afterwards, Kong Huan told Gu Yun about Yu Yao's news and information so that he could be mentally prepared in advance.
