Special effects: Starting with Ultraman Tiga

Atami City, outdoor foot bath.

Shen Yun bent down, rolled up his trouser legs, went to the foot bath, took off his shoes and socks, and sat down next to the two people.

The afternoon sun slanted in, making the surface of the hot spring look like it was sprinkled with a layer of gold dust, shimmering in the sunlight.

Tidom sat by the foot bath, gazing at the distant scenery, gently stirring the hot spring water with her delicate hands while humming an ethereal and melodious tune.

The water rippled gently, causing the golden glints on the surface to shimmer and sparkle with each ripple.

"Tidom really likes this song," Taiga Sae remarked as she listened to Tidom humming the melody softly.

"Because Grandma Zi only taught me this song," Tidom laughed.

Although Tidom has been living in the modern world for more than two years, he only goes online occasionally and spends most of his time watching TV series or playing console games with Shen Yun.

She hasn't paid much attention to modern songs, nor does she know how to sing them very well.

"After you've finished soaking your feet in the hot spring, where do you plan to go next?" Shen Yun asked.

"Let me see..." Sae Taiga took out her small notebook containing travel guides and started flipping through it.

Shen Yun glanced at it; it was filled with itinerary arrangements and even had a simple route map drawn on it.

"Next, we'll visit the Rose Garden, then the Kiunkaku Pavilion, and finally either the Raimiya Shrine or the Izuyama Shrine. However, I prefer the Izuyama Shrine," Taiga Sae replied with a smile.

"A shrine? White, Tidom is the priestess of Gao. Is it really okay to let Tidom visit another shrine?" Shen Yun couldn't hold back any longer when he heard this.

Which shrine maiden goes to visit other shrines?

"Eh?! That makes sense." Taiga Sae said with a hint of regret.

It is said that Izuyama Shrine is very effective in granting wishes for love and marriage.

As for what kind of fate it is, it is naturally a predestined relationship.

"If White wants to visit a shrine, he can go to Shen Junjian's Yago Shrine. Maybe it will be more effective." Tidom said with a grin, his hands supporting him on his sides, his calves unconsciously swaying in the hot spring water, stirring up ripples.

"Speaking of which, I don't think the Gao Shrine has any functions yet, right?" Taiga Sae said.

"Functions?"

"Yes, many people visit shrines to receive blessings from the gods, such as good fortune, marriage, career success, and peace. Many shrines even serve multiple purposes," Taiga Sae said earnestly, counting on her fingers.

"Wow~ the gods are really busy," Tidom remarked.

"I'm telling you, you're thinking way too far ahead. The shrine isn't even open to the public yet, and you're already thinking about its functions?" Shen Yun chuckled and reached out to ruffle Sae Ogawa's hair, teasing her.

"Anyway, we'll have to think about it sooner or later," Taiga Sae said with a grin.

The three of them sat by the foot bath, laughing and joking non-stop.

Suddenly, an enticing aroma wafted through the air.

"It looks like hot spring fried eggs." Shen Yun leaned back slightly and saw a shop selling hot spring fried eggs inside.

"Hot spring fried eggs?"

"Want to try some?" Shen Yun turned around, looked at Tidom and Sae Oga, and asked with a smile.

"Okay!" Tidom nodded repeatedly.

"But...we've already eaten a lot of snacks," Sae Taiga said hesitantly.

"It's okay, just get some more exercise," Tidom waved his hand and laughed.

"I'll go buy it," Shen Yun said, then used the towel she bought to dry the water stains on her feet, put on her shoes and socks, and went inside.

Before long, Shen Yun came out of the house with a paper bag containing three hot spring fried eggs wrapped in oil-absorbing paper.

At this moment, Sae Oga had already dried the water off her feet with a towel and was putting on her shoes and socks.

On the contrary, Tidom was still sitting by the foot bath, gently swinging his legs and splashing water.

"Here you go, hot spring fried eggs." Shen Yun handed the paper bag to the two of them.

"Arigato." Tidom smiled as he took the paper bag and then shared it with Sae Taiga.

"I'm starting! Aww~" Tidom held a hot spring fried egg in one hand and took a bite of the tip of the egg. The crispy shell made a crisp sound, the soft egg white emitted steam, and the runny yolk flowed down the bite.

"Phew~ It's so hot!" Tidom exhaled as the heat scalded her, but the aroma was so enticing that she couldn't help but chew, and a satisfied and happy look appeared on her pretty face.

That's really easy to handle.

Seeing the satisfied expression on Tidom's face, Shen Yun couldn't help but smile.

"It's about time we left. Otherwise, we won't be able to get a good spot for the fireworks display tonight," Shen Yun reminded him.

"Okay." Tidom chuckled, then glanced at the hot spring fried egg in his hand and said, "Shen Jun, could you help me wipe my feet? I'm a little busy right now."

As she spoke, Tidom lifted her jade-like feet, which had been soaking in the foot bath, from the water and placed them on the edge of the pool.

A pair of fair and smooth jade feet, moistened by the hot spring water, looked stunningly beautiful, their rosy white color complementing their delicate features.

Shen Yun's gaze lingered on it for a few seconds before he casually looked away.

"Alright."

Shen Yun sat down next to Tidom, placed a towel on his lap, and then reached out to take Tidom's ankle and place it on his knee. Two sections of fair and slender calves were exposed, which were slender and long, with well-proportioned bones and flesh, and smooth skin. His jade feet were fair and small, less than a palm's width in size, with curled toes, which looked round, full and lustrous like pearls.

It is slender and small, barely enough to hold in one's hand.

Its texture is as warm as jade and as delicate and soft as silk.

The slightly upturned arch of the foot forms a perfect curve, and the smooth instep is flawless like snow, with no visible veins or blood vessels, as smooth as mutton fat jade.

Shen Yunqiang suppressed the urge to examine it closely and calmed down to gently wipe away the water stains from Tidom.

Feeling the warmth from his ankles and seeing Sae's gaze, Tidom felt inexplicably nervous, even a little embarrassed, and urged in a low voice:

"Shen Jun, hurry up!"

"Okay, okay," Shen Yun replied, quickening his pace.

After wiping the water stains off Tidom, Shen Yun bent down to pick up the flat sandals from the ground, put them on Tidom, clapped his hands, and said, "All done."

Upon hearing this, Tidom quickly withdrew her legs from Shen Yun's lap, a faint blush spreading across her fair and delicate face, making her look extremely beautiful.

Shen Yun stood up from the foot bath with a calm expression and said, "Let's go."

"Mmm." Tidom responded softly, lowering his head and following behind Shen Yun, taking small bites of the hot spring fried egg in his hand.

For some reason, the hot spring fried egg, which is usually quite delicious, now tastes rather bland.

After leaving Makoto Atami, the three of them followed Sae Taiga's travel guide and visited the Rose Garden and Kiunkaku.

By then, it was dusk, and the three of them took a bus back to the hot spring hotel to meet up with the Gaorenjas. Together, they went to the water park to watch the Atami fireworks festival.

The fireworks display was short, lasting less than twenty minutes.

After the fireworks display ended, everyone returned the way they came.

After returning to the hotel, everyone went to their rooms to rest.

The next morning, after having breakfast delivered by the hotel, everyone headed to Ito City to continue their hot spring trip. (End of Chapter)
