The Exorcism Tale of Hachiman

"Having a cute little sister isn't so bad."

Anyway, with Hachiman Hikigaya making money, Sakura's appearance won't burden the Hikigaya family's finances in any way...

"Thank you, Komachi-nee."

The moment Komachi hugged her, Sakura's body tensed up instantly.

However, upon feeling the warm touch on her back and hearing Komachi's gentle tone without a trace of hostility, her wariness instantly vanished.

"As expected, my brother's sister is also very gentle..."

Sakura squinted her eyes and enjoyed Komachi's caresses.

When Hachiman Hikigaya finished washing the dishes and came out of the kitchen, he saw the two of them, one big and one small, huddled together on the sofa watching a show on their phones.

"?"

What exactly happened while I was in the kitchen?!

Chapter 265 Unreliable Mother and Daughter

"A relative who came from afar to seek refuge?"

The time came to nine o'clock in the evening.

After a long day at get off work, Mr. Hikigaya was surprised to find a strange girl in his living room when he finally got home.

After listening to Hachiman Hikigaya and Komachi's explanations, he roughly understood Sakura's purpose and fell silent.

"Onii-chan, is it really okay to say that?"

Seeing her father deep in thought with his head down, Komachi quietly approached Hachiman Hikigaya and whispered a question.

Sakura, sitting on the sofa, also had her head down, her hands nervously fidgeting, awaiting Mr. Hikigaya's final verdict.

"..........."

Looking at the two tense people beside him, Hachiman Hikigaya felt a sense of helplessness.

I was told beforehand that I would use unconventional methods to handle this, so why am I still nervous?

"Well, if we're the only family we can rely on, then there's nothing we can do about it, right?"

Sure enough, after pondering for a while, following the psychological suggestion given by Hachiman Hikigaya, Mr. Hikigaya sighed and agreed to let Sakura stay.

"Okay!"

Upon hearing her father's answer, Komachi immediately jumped up and pounced on Sakura.

"Be careful not to scare her."

Following Hachiman Hikigaya's hint, Sakura's matter was entirely entrusted to him.

Although he had serious doubts about whether his son could handle all the problems, Mr. Hikigaya still entrusted everything to his son.

"Then I'll go back to my room to rest first."

Having dealt with Sakura's matter, Mr. Hikigaya, who was already exhausted from a day's work, walked up to the second floor while yawning.

"Um...where's Auntie?"

Although she had been officially adopted by the Hikigaya family, Sakura still felt a sense of distance from suddenly having to call a complete stranger "mother."

Watching Mr. Hikigaya's retreating figure as he went upstairs, Sakura curiously asked the two people beside her about their mother's whereabouts.

"Mom is still working overtime today, so she probably won't be coming home..."

Upon hearing Sakura mention her mother, a hint of helplessness flashed across the faces of both the Hikigaya siblings.

..................

The next morning.

After successfully getting his father to accept Sakura as part of the family last night, Hachiman Hikigaya got up very early.

The reason for this is, of course, that we need to resolve the issue of the two people who are still waiting at the hotel today.

However, since the Inari Shrine had already helped resolve the identity information issue yesterday, all Hachiman Hikigaya had to do today was find a place for Irisviel to stay.

As for work, the jewelry Irisviel wears is enough for her and her mother to live on for a lifetime...

"Well then, I'll head out now..."

After finishing breakfast and saying goodbye to Komachi and Sakura, Hachiman Hikigaya left home and headed towards the hotel where Irisviel and Illya were staying.

I took the elevator to the floor where the mother and daughter lived, and rang the doorbell, but there was no response from inside.

"?"

Are you still sleeping?

With no response, countless questions arose in Hachiman Hikigaya's mind.

Could it be that Irisviel and the others didn't sleep well last night because they were in a complicated mood after just arriving in another world?

That shouldn't be the case.....

With a try-it-out attitude, Hachiman Hikigaya rang the doorbell again.

This time, the door opened with a click.

However, after only glancing into the room, Hachiman Hikigaya quickly turned his gaze to the corridor on the side and then closed the door again.

"Why are you wearing your pajamas to open the door?!"

"Because Ilya and I are still sleeping..."

Wearing a light blue, fluffy nightgown, with a glimpse of her snow-white skin peeking out from the front, Irisviel rubbed her sleepy eyes as she clung to the door, explaining.

"Insomnia?"

Upon hearing Irisviel's reasoning, Hachiman Hikigaya raised an eyebrow.

Could it be such a coincidence? That a reason he just came up with actually came true?

"No, well... actually it's because of the phone you gave me yesterday..."

When asked why she hadn't gotten out of bed yet, Irisviel's face showed a hint of embarrassment.

Yesterday, Hachiman Hikigaya bought her a smartphone so she could contact him in an emergency.

However, after Hachiman Hikigaya left, Irisviel and Illya only tinkered with it for a short while before they successfully mastered the finished product, which was more than ten years ahead of their world's technology.

Then the mother and daughter, completely engrossed in the ocean of the internet, were utterly unable to extricate themselves...

"Buzz........"

"etc........"

Hearing the strange buzzing sound coming from the room, Hachiman Hikigaya no longer cared about Irisviel's attire.

He peered into the room through the crack in the open door.

Two laptops were now lit up, their screens displaying the interface of an online game...

Wearing a pink bathrobe, Ilya sat in front of the computer, headphones on, eyes glued to the screen, her fingers flying across the keyboard...

"Actually, you didn't sleep all night, but you didn't hear the doorbell because you were playing games with headphones on, right?"

Upon seeing the scene in the room, Hachiman Hikigaya's face twitched instantly.

Let's put aside the question of how this mother and daughter got their hands on a computer. How come they're already playing web games after just one night?!

"terribly sorry......."

With her lie exposed, Irisviel stood obediently before Hachiman Hikigaya, head bowed like a schoolchild who had made a mistake.

"Ah, big brother..."

Because her mother withdrew at the last minute, Illya, despite her best efforts, still lost the game. She took off her headphones and was about to complain about her mother when she saw Hachiman Hikigaya standing at the door.

Without the slightest hesitation, Illya jumped off the stool and, mimicking her mother, obediently stood before Hachiman Hikigaya with her head bowed...

"...This mother and daughter are beyond saving..."

Hachiman Hikigaya looked up at the ceiling in despair.

He couldn't understand.

It's only been one night, why has things developed so far beyond his expectations...?

And also.........

Who was the most wicked person to buy these two computers?!

Chapter 266 The Evil Rich Woman

"I'm so sorry..."

Ten minutes later, after changing back into clothes suitable for going out, Irisviel invited Hachiman Hikigaya into the room and immediately bent down to apologize very sincerely.

"No, being addicted to online games is actually perfectly fine..."

After all, the jewelry Irisviel brought was more than enough for the mother and daughter to live comfortably for the rest of their lives.

"It's just that this is an important matter, so please take it seriously."

They had agreed to deal with the two people's identities and resettlement issues today, but they ended up staying up all night anyway.

If they weren't androids and magicians, but ordinary people, Hachiman Hikigaya's plans for today would definitely have been completely ruined...

"Speaking of which, is it really okay to not sleep all night?"

Hachiman Hikigaya turned to Illya beside him and asked.

As an adult, Irisviel has no problem staying up late, but as for Ilya...

Don't underestimate me!

Upon hearing Hachiman Hikigaya's question, Illya symbolically waved her fist in protest.

Let alone staying up all night, she could sit in front of the computer and type all day without any problem!

"Illya! Hachiman is just concerned about you."
