Tokyo: Starting with the Shrine Maiden

Before long, dinner was ready.

"I think I understand why Haruhiko likes you."

Tsuchimikado Mari suddenly spoke up.

"There's no point in you saying that."

After a slight pause, Xue Ji said.

"really."

Tsuchimikado Mari chuckled twice.

Both she and Yuki-hime understood that they could never become good friends.

We'll only collaborate occasionally.

"Go and call Haruhiko."

Tsuchimikado Mari picked up a plate of grilled meat and said, "I'm bringing dinner to my master."

Yukihime nodded.

She turned and went into the tent.

Haruhiko was still sleeping.

There was no way around it; I was just too exhausted.

With human bodies, they rivaled great demons, and there were two of them at that.

He has surpassed the limits of human capability.

But after reaching his limit, he became completely penniless.

Yuki hesitated.

Should I wake him up?

But after thinking for a moment, he still reached out his hand, and his spiritual energy flowed through Haruhiko's entire body.

Haruhiko, in his sleep, felt as if he were soaking in a hot spring, which was very comfortable.

He opened his eyes and saw the gentle but somewhat worried Yukihime.

"Have you got a meal yet?"

Haruhiko sat up and said, "I'm starving."

After a whole afternoon of intense work, I couldn't take it anymore.

Dinner is ready.

Yuki picked up the clothes that were thrown aside and helped him put them on.

Haruhiko stood still, enjoying the treatment of an emperor.

There was absolutely no need for me to do anything; my clothes were already on.

He left the tent.

The dining table was covered with all kinds of grilled skewers.

"Where is Aunt Mashiro?"

Haruhiko glanced at Tsuchimikado Mari and asked with some confusion.

"She doesn't want to eat out."

Tsuchimikado Mari smiled faintly, "You don't need to worry about it."

"Oh."

Although Haruhiko felt something was off, he was too hungry to think about it any further.

The grilled skewers on the table were divided into two piles, one on the left and one on the right.

He casually picked up a skewer and began to eat.

Which side tastes better?

A few minutes later, Tsuchimikado Mari suddenly asked.

Upon hearing this, Yukihime's eyes sharpened.

But she kept her arms crossed and her expression remained unchanged.

Just as Haruhiko was about to answer, he suddenly realized something was wrong.

He glanced at Tsuchimikado Mari, then at Yukihime.

Both of them were calm.

But he had a strange feeling of trepidation.

At that moment, he quickly brainstormed.

From the different plating positions to the different flavors, and finally combining this with Mari Tsuchimikado's questions, he got the correct answer.

"They're all delicious."

Haruhiko said casually.

Pretend to be an unsuspecting guest.

Tsuchimikado Mari and Yukihime both smiled.

The former is indifferent, the latter is gentle.

They knew Haruhiko too well, so they hadn't been fooled.

But they didn't ask any more questions.

After all, he had just been tormented.

Haruhiko breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

After that, no more fatal problems occurred, and he was able to finish his dinner without any serious incidents.

Yukihime is a guest from afar.

Tsuchimikado Mari didn't ask for her help anymore and instead cleaned up the dishes herself.

Where do we take a shower?

Seeing this, Yukihime looked at Haruhiko and said, "Take a bath before you go to sleep."

Haruhiko was already quite exhausted.

Upon hearing her words, he immediately took her to the riverbank.

There is naturally no bathroom inside the tent.

They could only use the river as a local resource.

Shampoo and other supplies were placed along the riverbank.

It was left behind by Tsuchimikado Mari.

They've been taking showers here for the past few days, so we made special arrangements for it.

In addition, there is a huge barrier to prevent anyone from spying.

Haruhiko took off his clothes and jumped into the water.

The river water was quite cold.

But since he was a third-tier demon, he wasn't afraid.

Yukihime goes without saying.

She swam behind Haruhiko and began to use a bath sponge to bathe him.

It was washed extremely clean from top to bottom.

Haruhiko was already very tired, so he simply enjoyed himself.

After taking a bath, Yuki picked him up and carried him back to the tent.

An unforgettable day has come to a complete end.

Haruhiko was sleeping soundly.

When he woke up, it was already noon.

To his surprise, he saw Tsuchimikado Mari.

As for Yukihime, she has disappeared without a trace.

He experienced sensations of shock and tingling.

"Yukihime is cultivating."

Tsuchimikado Mari's lips curled slightly; she had completely guessed his thoughts.

Haruhiko couldn't help but grimace.

Just when she had finally recovered, she was tormented by Tsuchimikado Mari again.
