Curse Return: Demon Void Girl Doesn't Want to Be a Weakling

It was already late at night when Mashiro got home.

She closed the door, tossed her things onto the chair, and then collapsed onto the sofa.

"Um--"

Mashiro stretched and made a soft, drawn-out sound.

After stretching, she buried her head in the sofa and let out a long sigh.

It's finally all over.

The battle of the Nuo was over, and Gojo Satoru was defeated.

After that, she would only get involved in matters related to sorcery if she wanted to, and she wouldn't get involved if she didn't want to.

The days of working non-stop like I haven't slept much since the Shibuya Incident are over, and the days of sleeping as late as I want have finally arrived!

Mashiro almost burst out laughing at this thought.

She rolled over on the sofa with a smug look on her face, lay there for a while, and then slowly got up and wobbled into the bathroom.

"Splash!"

Warm water poured down from the showerhead.

Water droplets pattered on her fair shoulders and then slowly slid down her collarbone.

The mist rose little by little, blurring the mirror on the wall.

Mashiro closed her eyes and tilted her face back, letting the water wash over her body.

Water droplets slid down her neck, across her skin, and formed thin lines that meandered downwards, carrying away the dust and bloodstains from her body.

Once she had returned to her clean and white form, she raised her hand and tucked her wet, long hair behind her ear.

After doing all that, she slowly opened her eyes and looked at the mirror beside her.

A fair silhouette was vaguely reflected in the mirror, and even through the steam, her skin appeared to have a faint pink hue.

Mashiro sighed contentedly, enjoying the rare moment of tranquility.

Soon after, Mashiro finally emerged from the bathroom.

Her hands surged with magical power, and the [Water Control] technique was activated, drawing all the moisture from Mashiro's body.

Mashiro put on her pajamas and got into bed, the warm blankets enveloping her body.

Tomorrow, I'm going to Kyoto with Xiaolu and Kugizaki, so I should go to bed early tonight.

Thinking this, sleepiness quickly washed over me.

She slowly closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep.

......

The next day, Mashiro was woken up by a series of phone calls from Kugizaki.

"Mashiro! Wake up! Let's go!"

"Why are you here so early? You're here."

Mashiro changed her clothes, yawned, and went out the door.

The little deer was already waiting obediently at the door, while Kugizaki looked energetic carrying a bag.

Kokichi followed behind, his expression filled with emotion.

"Lord Mashiro, thank you for your help."

"Don't mention it."

Mashiro waved her hand slightly, her voice still a little dazed: "It's on my way."

Time slowly passed, and on the Shinkansen, Kugizaki excitedly planned his famous journey.

That's right, because Kugizaki said that since it's a trip, everyone should experience the whole journey, so everyone took the Shinkansen.

"Go to Kyoto school first and take Yukichi back."

Kugizaki opened the map on his phone and excitedly tapped around, "Then we'll go to Kiyomizu-dera Temple, then Nijo Castle, and finally the shopping street!"

"You've got quite a full schedule."

Mashiro shook her head slightly as she spoke, "You'd better reduce the number of things you're scheduled for, otherwise there definitely won't be enough time."

This is based on her travel experiences from her previous life.

If you make too many travel plans, you'll either be exhausted or not have enough time.

"No, no, no."

Kugizaki clenched his fist and waved it. "I've finally come all this way to Kyoto, so of course I have to make the most of it!"

"Can't we do the rest next time...?"

Mashiro sighed, but seeing Kugizaki's excited expression, she didn't intend to spoil her mood.

She turned her head and saw the little deer sitting quietly beside her in the window seat, its eyes fixed on the scenery passing by outside.

When the usually boisterous little deer quiets down, her adorable face takes on a serene elegance.

Mashiro smiled slightly and gently poked the deer's waist, startling her.

The little deer glared at Mashiro, who was interrupting her view of the scenery, and said, "...What are you doing?"

"It's nothing, I just noticed you weren't saying anything."

Mashiro smiled slightly and asked, "Motion sickness?"

"No, that's not it."

Little Deer shook her head, looking out the window with a touch of wistfulness, "I just feel that the times are developing too fast."

"Oh, that makes sense."

Mashiro looked thoughtfully at the deer in front of her. "You're an old thing too."

"Yes, yes, you're right."

The deer had heard too many of Mashiro's teasing and sarcastic remarks about her, and was already immune to them.

Mashiro stroked her chin: "Shouldn't you have said that?"

The deer was taken aback: "Which sentence?"

"Yes or no, both are possible, that's the answer."

Mashiro said with a serious expression, "I am Ziyue."

"...Are you serious?"

Xiao Lu's face darkened; she didn't want to look at Zhen Bai even once.

"Just kidding."

Mashiro's voice was also more lively than usual.

The deer noticed this and smiled slightly.

Well, you yourself are somewhat looking forward to it.

Time passed slowly as they bickered, and they soon arrived at Kyoto Station.

When they arrived at the Kyoto school, Yoshinobu Rakuganji was already waiting at the entrance.

"Ms. Mashiro, thank you for your hard work."

Rakuanji came forward and greeted Masahiro.

"Yes, I brought Yukichi back."

Mashiro nodded and said.

Now, this old guy from Leyan Temple is a high-ranking member of the Spellcasting Association, and he and Yae Masamichi, who is the director of the Spellcasting Hall, help each other out.

The two are good friends, so this arrangement is appropriate.

Thank you for your trouble.

Leyan Temple nodded as well.

Kokichi stepped forward and bowed to Mashiro.

"Lord Mashiro, thank you for taking care of me during this time. I am grateful to you for enabling me to make amends."

"Alright, alright."

Mashiro patted his shoulder, making him straighten up, "Come over and play often in the future. Yuujin is still thinking about his Gundam."

Kokichi smiled and replied, "I will."

"Oh, right."

Mashiro suddenly remembered something and pointed at Kokichi, "You should go confess to Miwa and get together with her."

"What are you saying!"

Kokichi suddenly opened his eyes wide and his face turned bright red.

After stammering for a while, he finally nodded at Mashiro and said, "I'll do my best."

As they were talking, a tall figure walked out from inside the school.

That robust physique undoubtedly belongs to Toudou Aoi.

"Mashiro-nee".

Higashido Aoi greeted him politely.

"Hey, Toudou, long time no see."

Mashiro nodded and greeted him in return.

This time, there was no scene of everyone ganging up on each other in the battle of Nuo, so Dongtang didn't have a chance to appear.

Dongtang scratched his head and asked, "How's Itadori doing lately?"

"I'm doing pretty well."

Mashiro chuckled and said, "It would be even better if Yukichi could fix the Tenting and let him play with it."

"Haha, that kid."

Dongtang smiled and said, "Give my regards to him."

"OK."

Mashiro nodded in agreement.

Dongtang didn't say much, and after a few words, he tactfully left.
