The Exorcism Tale of Hachiman

Seeing the cute lingerie showing through Yukino's wet clothes, Haruno's smile widened.

"It's been a while, Yukino, you still like this cute type."

He groped his sister's body with his hands while letting out a strange laugh.

"You'd better stop this now!"

Seeing that Haruno's hands were becoming increasingly audacious, Yukino Yukinoshita suddenly felt a surge of power within her body and pushed Haruno, who was pressing down on her, aside.

She then retreated to the edge of the sofa, concealing the glimpses of her exposed skin revealed by her disheveled clothes, while warily watching Yang Nai who was smiling at her.

"What exactly are you doing here?"

"What a heartless question..."

Hearing the hint of distance and wariness in Yukino's tone, Haruno stretched and her expression returned to normal.

"There's a banquet tonight, and my mother asked me to take you back."

Chapter 55 Banquet

"banquet?"

Upon hearing Haruno's words, Yukinoshita Yukino subconsciously frowned.

"Isn't having your older sister enough? Anyway, if I go, I'll only be embarrassing the Yukinoshita family..."

“For a normal banquet, I could certainly help you postpone it, even if it meant being punished by Mother. But not this time…”

Looking at her younger sister's unwilling face, Yang felt a pang of bitterness in her heart.

Yukino was her most precious younger sister, and of course she didn't want her to be seen in a formal dress, swirling among the crowd at the banquet, being looked at with the eyes of those disgusting men as if they were picking out merchandise.

But.....

"You're the star of this banquet, Yukino..."

With a helpless expression on her face, Yang Nai looked at her younger sister, who resembled her, with a hint of sadness.

Because of Yukino's rebellious act of moving out of the house to live alone, their mother, for reasons unknown, has recently been skipping over her and choosing a husband for the younger Yukino.

Moreover, all of these actions were carried out secretly without her knowledge.

It wasn't until today, when she was summoned back to the Yukinoshita residence, that she learned from her mother that a banquet would be held tonight to select a husband for Yukino.

It's laughable that after secretly building up her power for so many years, she became deaf and dumb the moment her mother made a move...

"I'm the main character?"

Upon hearing Haruno's words, Yukino's first reaction was disbelief.

After all, she had accompanied Yang Nai to countless banquets in the past, and every time the main character was always her older sister, and it was never her turn!

It was precisely because she had always lived in Haruno's shadow that she became estranged from Haruno.

"This banquet is for you to choose a husband, so of course you're the star of the show."

Yukino Yukinoshita didn't believe it, but Haruno wasn't surprised.

Yukino is just as intelligent as her, and if she were to believe it so easily, she would start to doubt whether her sister was an imposter.

Therefore, she stated the purpose of tonight's banquet directly.

Firstly, it was to prepare Yukino mentally in advance, and secondly, it was to see how she would handle tonight's banquet.

After all, she sensed seriousness from her mother's tone.

It seems that Mother really intends to decide who will accompany Yukino for the rest of her life at tonight's banquet.

Although she herself could find a way to disrupt tonight's banquet, it ultimately depends on Yukino's personal decision.

"But why so early?"

Miyano looked serious and didn't seem to be lying, while Yukino Yukinoshita, who usually had a cold expression, also showed anxiety and panic.

Her marriage will be manipulated by her mother, and she will most likely marry someone who can bring benefits to the Yukinoshita family.

She understood this when she was in elementary school.

But this is something her mother should only consider after she graduates from university.

Why would her mother, who is only in her second year of high school, be so eager to hold such a hasty banquet for her without any prior notice?

"I don't know either, I'm sorry, Yukino..."

Yang Nai shook her head apologetically.

Tonight's banquet was all arranged by her mother, without even her father knowing. She was also very curious about why her mother did this.

"Is that so?"

Seeing that Yukino didn't seem to be lying, Yukino Yukinoshita didn't ask any more questions. With a heavy heart, she went into her room, and a little while later, she took a change of clothes and went into the still steamy bathroom.

Soon, after a rustling sound, the sound of water came from the bathroom again.

"Have you chosen to give up?"

Seeing her sister's silence, Yang felt a little disappointed.

Because she knew that her fate as the eldest daughter was unchangeable, she kept accumulating power in an attempt to change Yukino's destiny.

But her mother's sudden plan to hold a banquet completely disrupted her plans.

And now Yukino seems to have resigned herself to her fate again...

Yang Nai pursed her lips and lay down on the sofa, feeling unwilling.

If she had just given another year, everything would have changed.

Suddenly, Yang Nai caught a glimpse of a medal on the ground out of the corner of her eye.

Looking at the backpack lying on the sofa with a hole in it, Yang Nai instantly realized that it had accidentally fallen out when the sisters were playing around earlier.

"Let me see what place you got!"

Although I already guessed that no matter what award it was, my sister would definitely be number one.

Ke Yangnai still picked up the certificate from the ground with great curiosity.

Second place?

Looking at the ranking on the certificate, Yang Nai showed a surprised expression.

My own sister actually got a result other than first place?!

"Ah, I misread it, it's not Yukino's certificate..."

But Yang Nai soon discovered that the name on the certificate was not her sister's, but a name she had never heard of before.

"Hikigaya Hachiman?"

After saying the name aloud, Yang Nai raised an eyebrow.

It wasn't that she hadn't heard of it before. When she said the name, it sounded familiar, but where had she heard it before?

"Forget it, let's just find out who he is."

Yang Nai pulled her phone out from under the sofa and typed in a message.

A few minutes later.

All the information about Hachiman Hikigaya's life from birth to the present day has been sent to her mobile phone.

"It's pretty ordinary. I thought the guy Yukino specially put in her backpack would be something special..."

After quickly browsing through Hachiman Hikigaya's biographical information, Haruno put down her phone with some disappointment.

She thought the guy Yukino was paying attention to was something special, but it turned out he was just a deadbeat, even worse than an average person.

She had mistakenly thought that Yukino had found her a helper.

"Well, since Yukino is so concerned about me, I'll tell you this too..."

Tonight, her younger sister will be picked over like merchandise by those stinky men. In a bad mood, Haruno hesitated for only a moment before having her hacker add her and Hachiman Hikigaya to each other's Line accounts.

After sending the message that Yukino was going to a matchmaking party that night to the lucky guy who was chosen by her sister, Haruno threw her phone aside.

In her view, her actions had only caused heartbreak to some guy who had a crush on her sister.

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

The focus shifts to the Hikigaya family.

Because Kawasaki Saki didn't receive any exorcism requests online today, Hikigaya Hachiman is taking a rare break.

After having dinner with Komachi and washing the dishes, Hachiman Hikigaya lay on the sofa with his cat in his arms and watched TV in a relaxed, reclining position.

Meanwhile, Komachi lay to the side, swinging her little feet and chatting with her friends.

"Buzz!"

The phone inside the clothes suddenly vibrated.

Hachiman Hikigaya, guessing that the message might have come from Saki Kawasaki, reluctantly took out his phone.

But what appeared in his sight was an image he had never seen before.

"Hey, when did I add this person?"

With a sense of doubt, Hachiman Hikigaya opened the message.

After reading the message, he fell silent.

Yukino Yukinoshita is going to a matchmaking party tonight. Why is this stranger telling her this information?

Furthermore, a detailed address for the banquet was provided...

Chapter 56: Disrupting the banquet is utterly pointless.

"who are you?"

After replying to the other person, Hachiman Hikigaya put away his phone, turned off the TV, and prepared to go back to his room to practice the moves he had just learned that afternoon.

After all, there's an old saying in the neighboring country: "Practice makes perfect."
