"Hiratsuka-sensei, you've arrived."
After quickly taking two pairs of slippers from the entryway, the girl glanced at Kuseyu again before leaving in silence.
"I forgot to tell you, Reina-sensei has five daughters, they're quintuplets!"
"That was Miku just now. She's rather introverted."
Hiratsuka Shizuka explained as she changed her shoes.
Kuze followed Hiratsuka Shizuka into the Nakano house.
At first glance, the living room is extremely spacious.
Judging by its appearance, it's at least a large single-level apartment of three or four hundred square meters!
boom!
"Hey... Miku, what are you doing blocking my way?"
Just then, a soft body bumped into Kuseha.
Kuze Yu turned her head and saw a girl wearing only a bath towel, her hair still wet and draped over her shoulders, rubbing her forehead.
"wrong……"
The girl realized that if it were Miku, she wouldn't be so hard.
She suddenly raised her head, her eyes almost squinting into slits, before she could vaguely make out the boy's face.
"Male, male?"
The girl was startled and took a step back, stepping barefoot into the water dripping from her hair, and ended up sitting on her bottom.
"You must be Nino. Don't be nervous. This is the exorcist who came today."
Hiratsuka Shizuka's voice stopped Nakano Nino from screaming just in time.
"Hiratsuka-sensei?"
"Exorcist?"
Nino Nakano thought back and realized that May had indeed told them about this earlier...
At that moment, the cold touch on her buttocks made her instantly realize that she was not wearing anything under her bath towel.
With a quick tug on her towel to cover herself, Nino Nakano awkwardly stood up from the ground.
"Damn Miku! She knew I was taking a shower and opened the door without even telling me!"
She complained, embarrassed and annoyed, as she fled back to her room.
Chapter Fourteen: A Debt Repaid with a Lifetime
In the girl's bedroom.
As Nakano changed her clothes, she grumbled and complained indignantly.
"That Miku, she definitely did it on purpose!"
Despite her severe nearsightedness, she could only vaguely make out that the other person was a decent-looking young man.
"Exorcist... if you can't solve my mother's problems, I'll settle the score with you!"
Nino Nakano mumbled to herself.
Her gaze unconsciously fell on a picture frame on the table.
The photo shows two young children.
The young boy lifted the red-haired girl high in the air, and a smile brighter than the sun bloomed on her face.
"I wonder... if that orphanage is still there."
Nakano Nino remained silent for a long time before letting out a soft sigh.
Only when she sees this photo can she confirm that those carefree and happy times were not just a dream she imagined.
Just then, May's voice came from outside the door. Nakano Nino patted her cheeks and walked out of the room.
.............
In the pristine white room, a sickly red-haired beauty named Nakano Reina lay on the bed.
Reina Nakano's skin had a sickly pallor, even more so than the pure white sheets.
She turned to look at Hiratsuka Shizuka and Kuzeha, her eyes calm, but her delicate eyebrows would often furrow slightly in pain.
Beside her were five beautiful girls with different hairstyles and temperaments, but almost identical appearances.
Ichika, Nino, Miku, Yotsuba, May!
They greeted Hiratsuka Shizuka, then looked curiously at Kuze Yu standing to the side.
Now that Nino had put on her contact lenses, she could finally see the boy clearly.
Whether it's his height, temperament, or appearance, he is an impeccable and handsome young man.
If he were in their school, he would definitely be the kind of guy that shallow girls would often talk about.
She just doesn't like that type of guy.
but……
Nino's eyes reflected Kuze Yu's image, but she didn't dislike it; instead, she felt a strange sense of nostalgia.
"Xiao Jing, you're here."
Reina Nakano smiled, her once magnetic and solemn voice now weak.
"Teacher Reina, this is my student, Kuze Yu!"
Hiratsuka Shizuka patted the boy beside her and introduced him softly.
Reina Nakano's gaze shifted to Kuze Yu standing to the side, and she slowly nodded.
"Since he is Xiaojing's student, he must be very outstanding."
Only then did a hint of a teacher's demeanor begin to emerge in her.
"Excuse me, Kuze-kun, is there anything wrong with me?"
"I can say that calmly," Nakano Reina said.
Hiratsuka Shizuka was naturally aware of her feelings.
But after so many years of treatment, there has been no improvement whatsoever, and she has long since given up hope.
On the contrary, the five sisters on the side clenched their little hands and looked nervously at Kuji Yu.
Under everyone's gaze, Kuze Yu's eyes remained fixed on Nakano Reina, who was leaning against the bed.
After a moment of contemplation, he slowly spoke.
"Mr. Nakano, do you know about hunting fire bees?"
Reina Nakano's beautiful eyes flickered slightly, and she slowly nodded.
The five sisters were completely bewildered, and Nino asked.
"what is that?"
Kuseha began to explain.
"The hunting of fire bees was recorded hundreds of years ago, originally as an infectious disease of unknown cause."
"It is said that this infectious disease will cause patients to have a high fever that makes them unable to move, and eventually lead to their death. The patients are as if they have been stung by invisible bees—burned by fire."
The five sisters frowned repeatedly as they listened, for their mother's illness was recurring high fevers, and no matter what they did, they could not find the cause.
Is this a disease?
Hiratsuka Shizuka quickly pressed for an answer.
"What may have started as a disease has become, through word of mouth, a strange phenomenon!"
"They greedily drain the life energy of the human body before looking for their next prey."
As Kuze Yu explained, his gaze fell on Nakano Reina's wrist.
"If it weren't for the bracelet on Nakano-sensei's wrist nourishing and replenishing his life force, Nakano-sensei wouldn't have made it this far."
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at the jade bracelet on Nakano Reina's wrist in surprise.
Nakano Rena also raised her slender, fair wrist in surprise.
“This was passed down to me by my mother. She said it was a spiritual object she had obtained long ago, and that wearing it for a long time could prolong life. I thought…”
Reina Nakano shook her head with a wry smile.
Having suffered from illness for so many years, she naturally wouldn't believe that the bracelet would have any effect.
Wearing it on a daily basis is simply a way of remembering my deceased mother.
Little did she know that if it weren't for this bracelet, she would have already passed away.
Kuseha didn't find it strange at all.
The world is full of extraordinary beings hidden in the shadows, and it's quite normal for ordinary people to occasionally obtain some extraordinary items.
Moreover, the spiritual energy contained within the bracelet has been almost completely exhausted, and it won't be long before it becomes nothing more than an ordinary object.
Just then, Nakano Reina let out a soft groan of pain.
Her fair skin turned red at a visible speed.
"Mom has a high fever again..."
Upon seeing this, the five sisters hurriedly and frantically brought out a basin of water and an ice towel.
Nakano Satsuki hurriedly looked at Kuze Yu.
"Kuse-kun, can you remove the strangeness from my mother?"
Kuseyu nodded.
Strange things are also spirits, and as long as they are spirits, they cannot escape the control of spirits and generals.
"Stop your efforts, it's no use."
With a flick of his finger, Jiu Shiyu sent spiritual energy particles into the space between the five sisters' eyebrows.
He casually took Hiratsuka Shizuka's hand and gently transferred some spiritual energy into it.
In the blink of an eye, the scene they saw changed completely.
Centered around Nakano Rena, countless ferocious yellow and black bees hovered in mid-air.
They rushed to stab Nakano Reina, draining her life energy.
Upon seeing this horrifying scene, Hiratsuka Shizuka's beautiful eyes widened, and she instinctively gripped Kuze Yu's hand tightly.
The five Nakano sisters covered their mouths in terror, completely stunned.
They finally understood why their mother often felt a stinging sensation on her skin; each fever was a strange thing hunting down Nakano Reina's life.
Seeing their mother's pained expression, the girls all looked at Kuze with pleading eyes.
"Kusei-kun..."
"Ju Ling!"
Kuze Yu extended his right hand, and the swarm of bees paused instantly.
The next moment, a terrifying restraining force surged from Kuze Yu's hands, completely enveloping the swarm of hunter bees.
In an instant, they were like duckweed caught in a whirlpool.
Completely defenseless, it was sucked into Kuze Yu's hand.
Within seconds, the room was quiet again.
Kushiyu did not kill the Bee Hunter; this moderately strong spirit was just right to provide his eldest disciple with a foundation for improvement.
On the bed, Nakano Rena's brows, which had been furrowed in pain, relaxed, and her breathing gradually returned to normal.
She slowly opened her eyes, which had been almost lifeless due to the torment of illness, and were now filled with light.
