“That seems…to make sense,” La Freya agreed.
"As expected of Setsuna, she knows so much." Sayaka Kirasaka immediately praised.
But Yukina Himeragi didn't even look at her and continued, "In ancient Celtic beliefs, people believed that at the beginning of winter, the passage between this world and the spirit world would open, allowing a large number of elves and witches to flood in... In order to protect themselves from these monsters, they would wear masks and light bonfires. It is said that this is the origin of Halloween."
"I see." Shi Chen nodded knowingly.
"Teacher, don't you understand?"
"How could I know? Have you forgotten that I didn't belong to Itogami Island in the first place?"
"Almost forgot."
“Xuecai knows more.” Shichen reached out and rubbed her little head.
Himeragi Yukina is a magic user trained by the Lion King Organization using elite education, so it's normal that she knows a lot.
"Teacher..." Himeragi Yukina looked both enjoying it and keeping a straight face.
"So, that's how Halloween costumes and pumpkin monsters came about?" La Fria asked.
“Yes, and the Halloween legend itself is not entirely without basis, because it is true that the spacetime continuum becomes unstable during this period. In addition, there are reports of cases in the past where humans encountered visitors from different timelines and uninvited demons from other worlds.” Himeragi Yukina said seriously, holding the time on her hand.
“Spacetime is unstable…” Shi Chen couldn’t help but ponder.
He vaguely remembered what was about to happen at this point in time; perhaps it was time to liberate Nagatsuki.
"Brother Chen, what's wrong?" Ye Se Xia Yin asked with concern.
"It's nothing... By the way, when are your friends coming, Kojo?" Shichen shook his head and asked Kojo.
"It should be quick..."
"Kojo—!" Before Kojo could finish speaking, someone shouted from above.
The clear, neutral voice was very loud in the crowded arrival hall, and everyone couldn't help but look up. What came into view was a figure leaping down.
The owner of the voice actually leaned out from the stair railing and jumped down towards them.
And it's quite obvious that the other person is a beautiful and lively girl.
As the girl landed smoothly, her appearance was revealed. She had a short bob with curls at the ends, wore a hooded, belted jacket, and shorts that showed off her long, slender legs. Her slim calves and chunky basketball shoes made her look particularly charming.
"Eh?"
Kojou stared at her, stunned. After a long pause, he asked uncertainly, "Yu...Yu-ma?"
"It's me~ Long time no see. Looks like you're doing well, Kojo." The girl named Yuma replied with a smile, her eyes narrowed.
Xiao Gucheng looked at her helplessly: "What are you doing? You almost made my heart stop... You're still as reckless as ever."
"Hehe~" Yuma stuck out her tongue shyly.
She then realized that her behavior had made her the center of attention in the hall.
"Yu!" Akinagisa excitedly ran over and hugged her.
"Nagisa? You've become a beautiful girl! I didn't even recognize you~" Yuma hugged her as well.
"How could that be? Didn't you send photos before?"
"But the real person is even more pleasing to the eye than the photo."
"No way~" Akinagisa said embarrassedly, glancing at the clock involuntarily.
"Hmm?" Yuma noticed it naturally and looked over as well.
“Yuma, let me introduce you. This is our teacher, Tokimatsu. The others are his students and... friends.” Akinagi immediately helped with the introductions.
"Teacher, you're so handsome!"
"Right, right?" Akinagisa said with inexplicable smugness.
"But why are there so many girls?"
“This…” Akinagisa was speechless.
"Are there any people here who are close to you, Kojo?" Yuma asked Kojo jokingly.
No...
"Haha~" Yuma laughed loudly.
"What are you doing? What do you mean?" Xiao Gucheng asked unhappily.
"It's nothing... it's just that you, Kojo, are truly amazing."
"what does it mean!"
"What's going on? What's happening?!" Yase Motoki suddenly asked, looking somewhat shocked.
"What's wrong?" Shi Chen asked.
"Why is it that Kojo's friend is a girl? And such a cute one at that?" Yase Motoki was greatly shocked.
Didn't he tell you?
"No! Now I'm the only one without a female companion! How awful!"
"...Please accept my condolences and hang in there." Shi Chen patted him on the shoulder in comfort.
"Teacher, please don't pity me!"
"...Fine, whatever."
"Teacher, can we go now?" Himeragi Yukina asked.
La Fria and the others also looked at him; they weren't interested in Yuma.
"That's true... Gu Cheng, you should enjoy yourself with your girlfriend. We'll be going now."
"She's not my girlfriend!" Kojou Akatsuki immediately denied, blushing.
"Hehe~" Shi Chen chuckled and led everyone away from the station.
"Teacher, really, what nonsense are you talking about?" Xiao Gucheng said awkwardly.
"Kojo is still so easily embarrassed," Yuma teased, her gaze fixed on Tokichi's back until he disappeared from sight.
Chapter 460 What Mischief Are They Planning?
That evening, Nangong Nayue returned home looking exhausted.
Because of the festival at Bolongin Temple, it's easy for a mixed crowd to appear. Nangong Nayue and the other magic masters will be very busy, having to keep a close eye on the tourists at all times to prevent any illegal activities from happening.
"Nayue, you've worked hard. Have a cup of black tea first." Shichen handed her the brewed black tea.
"Did you make this?" Nangong Nayue sat down in her designated spot.
"Yes."
"Why are you being so kind today? You haven't made me any black tea in ages, have you?" Nangong Nayue asked familiarly as she took a sip.
Now, her black tea is mostly brewed by San San and the others or by Astarothie.
Although the taste was similar, she always felt that this cup tasted better.
"How can you say that? I just thought you'd had a long day, so I made you a cup of black tea." Shi Chen said with a smile as he came over to Nangong Nayue and massaged her shoulders.
Her petite frame made massaging her shoulders effortless, as if she were playing with a doll.
"You're so lazy and so kind, it makes me wonder if you've done something bad behind my back again." Nangong Nayue turned around and stared at him.
"How could that be?" Shi Chen denied righteously.
“I don’t believe it… Did you secretly do something to these girls?” Nangong Nayue turned back to look at La Fria and the others.
She was still a virgin, but she wasn't completely ignorant.
“Sister Nangong, it’s a pity that Chen didn’t do anything for us. I wish he could have done something for us.” La Fria replied with a smile.
"You're really direct."
"After all, I've already decided on Chen~"
"I...I can do it too," Natsumi Yase said softly but firmly.
"Don't bother joining in the fun, you didn't even graduate from junior high school," Nangong Nayue said dismissively.
"Eh?" Natsume Yase was a little sad.
"Then what about us?" Aurora asked expectantly.
"You too, have you finished your homework?"
"How could this be... there are still so many days of vacation left." Aurora pouted unhappily.
"Then if you finish early, you can have fun sooner, right? San San and the others have already finished, haven't they? They're all sisters, how come there's such a big difference?"
“Hmm…” Augurola couldn’t refute it.
"Hehe~" Shi Chen couldn't help but laugh when he saw this.
"What are you laughing at? You must be hiding something from me, otherwise you wouldn't be so kind as to make me black tea. It's not like San San and the others aren't home." Nangong Nayue turned around and glared at him.
"I'm innocent! I really just wanted to make you a cup of black tea, I had no other intentions."
"I almost believed it."
"What about the trust between us, Yue?"
There is no trust, only coercion.
"Hmm? If that's how you put it, then I won't hold back." Shi Chen said, slowly lowering his head and moving closer.
"What do you want to do?" Nangong Nayue immediately became nervous.
“Everyone is watching.”
"It's all because you don't believe me." Shi Chen got closer and closer, his breath already hitting Nangong Nayue's tender face.
"Alright, alright, I believe you, okay?" Nangong Nayue reluctantly conceded.
She didn't want to be subjected to anything by Shichen in front of La Fria and the others; it was too shameful.
"That's more like it." Shi Chen smiled, looked up, and let her go.
