Death: This Death is a bit unorthodox.

"Teacher? You're so direct. I thought you'd be more tactful."

"But I want to teach you, so I'm asking you. Can I be your cooking instructor?"

Yizhou Tongsheng blinked his big eyes as if he were cheating.

Staring intently at Aozaki Mayuki, he once again made it impossible for Aozaki Mayuki to refuse.

If Yizhou Tongsheng were a few hundred or a thousand years younger.

Without saying a word, Aozaki Mayuki hugged her and kissed her several times.

However, it would be very strange to do this to a young, bold, and mature woman.

Aozaki Mayuki could only respond to Hikifune Kiryu with a grateful smile, accepting her help.

"..."

The older sister, who lives alone, had a slightly upturned, alluring smile on her lips.

…………

"Hmm~"

The next morning, Shutara Senjumaru opened his eyes early.

I stretched and then sat up in bed to move my body a bit.

The room was hastily cleaned last night.

The room seemed rather empty, with not much furniture, just a very ordinary large bed.

But for Shutara Senjumaru, this simple environment gave her a feeling of being in another world.

After all, he is a member of the Zero Squad and in charge of the Divine Weapon Force.

Although it was boring, she had long been used to a life of luxury.

In reality, Shutara Senjumaru would much rather taste the food made by Kiryu.

Although the divine soldiers' cooking skills were also quite excellent, they were still somewhat inferior to those of Hikifune Kiryu.

Not to mention the irresistible deliciousness of the "takeout" sent by Aozaki Mayuki when they were in Seireitei.

That perfect flavor seemed to permeate the depths of one's soul, making it irresistible.

Thinking of this, Shutara Senjumaru couldn't help but shake his head:

"...No, no, I can't embarrass myself like this again."

"Senjumaru, you can't let the younger generation's expectations of you be completely shattered, hmm!"

Lord Shutara Senjumaru mentally cheered himself on:

"Hmph, I must pull myself together!"

She clenched her fist in front of her.

As she moved, her soft, long hair swayed gently.

Shutara Senjumaru knew he had lost face in front of his two juniors.

But as their senior, she still had to try her best to maintain the last shred of dignity.

The clock on the wall shows it is seven o'clock in the morning.

Shutara Senjumaru got out of bed with renewed vigor and quickly folded the blankets.

Her feet, clad in long stockings, stomped directly on the floor, making a crisp, pleasant sound.

Next, she decided to take on the responsibility of being a senior and wake up the two juniors who might still be fast asleep.

Shutara Senjumaru-sama left his room full of energy and turned to stand in front of Aozaki Mayuki's room next door.

As she stood at the door, she keenly sensed something was amiss; the room was empty.

Moreover, from her observation, it seemed that Aozaki Mayuki hadn't returned to her room all night.

This discovery made her tilt her head in confusion.

"Little Zhenyue, did something happen last night that kept you from coming back? You actually left your junior behind and fell asleep all by yourself. As your senior, I really..."

As Shutara Senjumaru spoke, he immediately felt ashamed of his immaturity, slapped his forehead, and sighed.

If this continues, the image of the "reliable senior" in Xiaozhenyue's heart will completely collapse!

We absolutely must find a way to salvage this!

Shutara Senjumaru was unaware of this.

In fact, ever since I first embarrassed myself, I have no image of a senior to speak of.

Like an energetic Siamese cat, she pretended to be calm while quickly running towards the living room.

Upon entering the open living room door, she saw Kiryuki Hikifune having breakfast.

Shutara Senjumaru quickly tidied his hair and the hem of his skirt, making sure that nothing was wrong with him.

Then, a bright smile appeared on his face, and he greeted them warmly:

"Good morning, Kiryu! It's early."

"...because I didn't sleep all night."

Kiryuki confidently picked up his knife and fork, skillfully cut off a piece of bacon, and put it in his mouth.

She chewed her food while turning her head to look at Shutara Senjumaru.

He slightly raised his chin, gestured towards the table, and said:

"Here, yours is ready too."

Sure enough, there was already a similar breakfast on the seat next to me.

This breakfast looks very tempting.

The fried bacon and ham exude an enticing aroma, the half-cooked eggs have a pale yellow color, the toasted bread slices emit a subtle caramelized fragrance, and the plated fruit is fresh and juicy.

There were also three kinds of drinks on the side: milk, coffee, and juice.

It was quite a feast.

It differs from breakfasts in various Western countries, yet incorporates features from breakfasts around the world.

Shutara Senjumaru looked at the breakfast in front of him in surprise.

"Could this... possibly have been made for me by Xiaozhenyue? Is it really for me?"

Kiryuki, enjoying his portion, reluctantly stopped eating and took a moment to nod:

“That’s right. After you sneaked a dessert yesterday, Mayuki seems to think you like Western food.”

"But I didn't know which one you liked, so I just combined all the parts I liked."

"Zhen Yue is indeed a culinary genius. She got used to the environment of the Spirit King Palace in just one night and made these things."

"Actually, that's just because it's new. What I like best is still the usual stuff..."

Shutara Senjumaru waved his hand.

Chapter 346 Fate

She even prepared breakfast for herself, and it was Aozaki Mayuki's favorite.

When people don't know what the other person likes, they subconsciously treat what they like best as the best and give it to others.

Shutara Senjumaru knew this clearly.

Overwhelmed with gratitude and joy, she sat down carefully.

Although, given their condition, they could go without eating without any problem.

However, cravings have nothing to do with the body's needs.

It's truly touching that Aozaki Mayuki considered this from the very beginning.

Although Xiao Zhenyue may seem a bit mischievous, he is actually a very considerate and gentle man!

Shutara Senjumaru's unilateral affection for Aozaki Mayuki increased even more.

Then, as she opened her full lips and put the glistening, oily sausage into her mouth.

"...So delicious!"

A familiar feeling.

Although we had been apart for many years, and it was a dish I had never tasted before.

However, it is still evident that Aozaki Mayuki's cooking skills have not diminished at all.

Just as Shutara Senjumaru was happily eating, she inadvertently looked up.

Just then, she saw Aozaki Mayuki walking towards her from the direction of Hikifune Kiryu's bedroom, scratching her head as she went.

Aozaki Mayuki's face seemed to show a hint of fatigue and drowsiness.

"Little Zhenyue! You must be very tired after a busy night. You look exhausted."

Shutara Senjumaru asked with concern.

Aozaki Mayuki shook her head and replied:

"Ah... I was trying to finely control my spiritual pressure last night, which did take a lot of energy, but I wouldn't say I was tired."

"My efforts last night went pretty well, didn't they? By the way, what time is it now?"

Upon hearing Aozaki Mayuki's question, Shutara Senjumaru immediately turned to look at the large clock on the wall.

The clock hand has already pointed to eight o'clock.

"It's still early, Little Moon! Why don't you go back to your room and rest for a while?"

Shutara Senjumaru suggested.

Aozaki Mayuki did not respond to her words, but stared straight at Shutara Senjumaru.

He suddenly reached out and touched Shutara Senjumaru's cheek, all the way to the corner of his mouth.
