"Excuse me..."
At the entrance, Yukina Himeragi, still in her uniform, nervously greeted everyone, her hands fidgeting with her clothes.
"Come in quickly," Shi Chen said with a smile, stepping aside.
"I...excuse me..." Himeragi Yukina took small, hesitant steps as she entered the room.
"The food is ready and waiting for you."
Shichen walked inside first, but Himeragi Yukina called him back.
"Teacher Shi, um... indoor shoes."
"Oh, I almost forgot." Shichen came back and handed her a pair of blue slippers.
"Thank you..." Himeragi Yukina squatted down and took off her shoes and socks.
Her small feet were very delicate, and her skin was very fair, but you couldn't see any veins. Her toes were also round and full.
"Your feet are quite pretty," Shi Chen complimented.
"Really? Thanks... Eh?" Himeragi Yukina suddenly looked up, staring blankly at him.
"Ahem, I was just saying it offhand, don't worry about it." Shi Chen looked away.
“Yes…” Himeragi Yukina couldn’t help but curl her toes, her pretty face flushing.
This Fifth True Ancestor is indeed abnormal!
"Are you done changing? Let's go."
"Um......"
As Yukina Himeragi followed the time, she entered the living room, and the scene inside made her a little dizzy.
The twelve identical, fairy-like girls were so adorable that even though she was mentally prepared, she was still shocked.
The twelve Flamelight Night Elders.
Also, she was familiar with the Void Witch—Nangong Nayue.
"Hello, Himeragi-san," Ogura greeted Himeragi Yukina first.
“Hello, Ogura-san.” Yukina Himeragi nodded in response.
"Come and sit down," Xiao Wu said, gesturing for them.
"Um, could I wash my hands first?"
"The restroom is over there," Shi Chen said, pointing to the restroom.
"Ok."
Shi Chen stopped paying attention to her and sat down next to Nangong Nayue.
"Is this the little girl? She is indeed very cute," Nangong Nayue said casually.
"Really? It's alright, not as cute as Natsuki."
"..."
"Shichen, Shichen, what about me? Am I cuter than you?" Aurora, sitting on the other side, asked hurriedly.
"Didn't I tell you you're the cutest?" Shi Chen smiled and ruffled her hair.
"Hee hee~"
"Does that mean we're the cutest?" Xiao Jiu blinked and said with a smile.
"Wait, Shichen clearly said it was me!" Aurora retorted.
"Ogurora, what are you saying? We look exactly alike. You're the cutest, so doesn't that mean we're the cutest? Right?" Xiao Jiu asked everyone.
"Yes." Everyone nodded in agreement.
"Even so...we are different!"
"How are we different?"
"Different is different!"
"Hmm~ It's definitely different. Our names are chosen based on the time of day, but yours isn't."
"Xiao Jiu! You're so annoying!"
"I'm just telling the truth."
"Shichen, look at her!" Ogurola said angrily, her cheeks puffed out. She could never win an argument with Xiao Jiu.
"Alright, alright, what's all the fuss about? You're all so cute, there's nothing wrong with that. But there are outsiders here, so be more ladylike."
"I'll listen to you." Xiao Jiu nodded obediently.
"that......"
Just then, Yukina Himeragi returned, looking somewhat lost and unsure where to sit.
"Ji Tong, why don't you sit next to Xiao Wu? It just so happens that you two are classmates."
“Okay…” Himeragi Yukina sat down next to Mai.
"Let's eat then, Ji Dong. San San and the others made all of this. See if it suits your taste."
"San-san?" Himeragi Yukina didn't know who to look at.
To be honest, she found Ogurola and the others' names quite strange.
“The one next to Xiao Wu is San San,” Shi Chen said.
"H-hello." Himeragi Yukina nodded shyly to San San.
"Let me introduce them to you, since we'll be neighbors from now on. This is Xiao Yi, this is Xiao Er, you know San San, this is Xiao Si, I won't go into Xiao Wu, this is Xiao Lu, Xiao Qi, Xiao Ba, Xiao Jiu, Xiao Shi, Yi Yi, and Aurora."
Except for Ogura, the twelve characters are all homophones of numbers, but they are pronounced differently in Japanese.
Shi Chen wasn't very good at naming things, but he thought it was better than the naming skills of the Red Demon Clan.
"H-Hello, my name is Himeragi Yukina." Himeragi Yukina quickly introduced herself.
"Hehe~ No need to be so polite, hurry up and eat, it'll get cold soon."
"Good, good."
Dinner was quite lively. Xiao Jiu especially liked to serve food to Shi Chen, which led to Ogura arguing with her.
With the two of them around, the atmosphere was very lively.
However, Himeragi Yukina ate very quietly, carefully observing everything except for the unfamiliar environment.
Shichen was someone she needed to monitor; she needed to understand him well, which was the main reason she agreed to come for dinner.
It was during this dinner that she seemed to notice something was off. Shichen and Aurora's relationship was clearly unusual, almost like that of a couple.
Speaking of which, the Fourth True Ancestor was devoured by him, so why weren't the twelve original bodies?
And most importantly, everyone in this house except him is a loli-sized girl, even she was one when she first arrived.
And then there's Akatsuki Nagisa... This doesn't seem like a coincidence.
Could this be the main reason for sending her to spy on him?
Himeragi Yukina wasn't sure, but she had a lot of doubts.
There are many people more capable than her, so why did the "Three Saints" send her?
And why would someone as extraordinary as the Fifth True Ancestor become a middle school teacher?
He knew perfectly well that she had ulterior motives in approaching him, yet he still let her go.
The more I think about it, the more likely one of my guesses seems.
But wouldn't that put her in even greater danger?
After finishing her meal in a flustered state, Himeragi Yukina went home, and Tokishi didn't try to keep her there.
That night, Shichen slept alone, and Aurora couldn't escape Nangong Nayue's notice, so she came to his room to have him check on his development.
Nothing happened overnight. The next day, when Shichen got up and left the room, breakfast was already laid out on the dining table.
"Shichen, we're going to school now." San San, who was changing her shoes at the door, waved to her.
With her were Xiao Yi and the others; apart from Aurora, Xiao Wu, and Xiao Jiu, there were nine of them together.
They thoroughly enjoy their student status and school life.
Although they also wanted to go to school with Shichen, they had to give up because Aurora and the others were with them.
"Okay, be careful on the road." Shi Chen nodded with a smile.
He wasn't worried about San San and the others running into any trouble. He not only preserved the familiars within them, but also instructed them that if anyone tried to harm them, they should just take action.
"Ah."
After the nine people left, Shichen went to the bathroom to brush his teeth and wash up, and then woke up Ogurola.
Ogurola isn't as self-disciplined as Xiaowu and the others.
Nangong Nayue has already gone to school. The high school teachers are very busy, and she is an English teacher.
Physical education teachers have it really easy; sometimes they don't even have to go to school.
After having breakfast with Ogura and the others, Shichen got ready and went out together.
Click~
At that moment, the door opposite opened, and Yukina Himeragi, fully prepared, stepped out.
"Good morning, Teacher Shi. And good morning, Ogura, Xiaowu, and Xiaojiu too." Himeragi Yukina greeted Shichen politely.
"Good morning, Himeko. What a coincidence!"
"Um... can I go to school with you?"
"No problem." Shi Chen nodded.
The group had one more person, but Aurora and the others didn't mind, still holding onto Shichen's arms on either side.
Mai and Yukina Himeragi lagged behind.
