The Kamijou family holds a Hatsumode (first shrine visit) every year, and the Hatsumode location is always a shrine. So, this must not be their first time visiting Fushimi Inari Taisha, right?

Although there are many famous shrines in Kyoto, the most famous ones are Fushimi Inari Taisha and a few others, so they will definitely be the first choice.

"I forgot, anyway, I haven't been here in recent years," Hino Kamijou replied in a low voice.

"Why? Is it because you don't like Inari?" Hagiya Taku said, but he realized his mistake as soon as he finished speaking.

Before the Meiji period, Japanese gods and Buddhas were associated with each other. After the Meiji period, gods and Buddhas were separated, and shrines and temples became two separate things.

Most shrines enshrine Uka no Mitama after the separation of Shinto and Buddhism. Uka no Mitama is the embodiment of the Japanese Inari god and is also known as the god of agriculture.

The shrine enshrines Inari, so if they didn't like Inari, why did Kyouno and the others come here?

Shrines are the traditional sacred sites for worship in Japan, while Buddhism was introduced from other countries. If anything, they dislike Buddhism, not their native Inari god.

“Brother, I know you don’t believe in ghosts and gods, but it’s really too disobedient of you to say such things at the shrine.”

As expected, when Kaname Kamijou heard what Taku said, her expression changed immediately. However, she didn't say anything more, but silently prayed in her heart that the Inari God would not punish her.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that."

Realizing his mistake, Yu Gongtuo immediately clasped his hands together and begged for forgiveness. Of course, he was just putting on an act; if the Inari God could see through his heart, then there was nothing he could do.

"Taku, what are you talking about?"

At this moment, Moriyama Omi, who noticed the commotion, also leaned closer, wanting to hear what the two were saying.

"We're talking about whether Inari or his father Susanoo is more powerful."

"This... is simply incomparable, isn't it? Because there are no records of Inari God fighting in folk tales."

"That means his father, Susanoo, was even more powerful. He killed the Yamata no Orochi."

"How did you come to that conclusion...?"

Moriyama Omi slapped her forehead, utterly speechless: "Could it be that Taku is actually a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur)?"

Seeing this, Yu Gongtaku smiled slightly, then raised his arm and declared in a low voice: "Chuunibyou is not a disease, it is a way of expressing youth, it is proof that the long-burned passion in people's hearts has been revived!"

Hearing what Hagami Taku said, Moriyama Omi inexplicably became excited as well: "Although I don't understand what Taku is saying, being a chuunibyou is actually a very impressive thing, isn't it?"

"As expected of my Oomi, her comprehension is just too strong. This is a secret that I only figured out after going through two cycles. Come on, let me kiss you."

After saying that, Yu Gongtaku really kissed Moriyama Omi on the cheek.

That's enough...

As Kamijo Hino watched the two of them showing affection and occasionally spouting childish remarks, the word "speechless" was written all over her face.

"It's so good to be young."

Hearing the commotion behind her, Ayako Kamijou, who was walking ahead, smiled and said to Seiichiro Kamijou, "If you had been like this back then, I might have considered you my hero."

“Actually, I was quite immature when I was young,” Kamijou Seiichiro immediately retorted, his competitive spirit quickly softening, “but my father extinguished that passion back then.”

"Then what else did you say? You acted like a little adult when you were young. I don't know how I ever fell for you back then."

"You didn't have a choice, and isn't it good as it is now?"

After saying that, the couple couldn't help but laugh.

"Let bygones be bygones, and we must look to the future."

Upon hearing this, Ayako Kamijou nodded: "However, while looking to the future, we should also look back at our past selves."

As she spoke, she turned to look at the three people behind her, including Yu Gongtaku. In them, she seemed to see her own lost youth.

"We've arrived. This is the main shrine."

Before they knew it, they had arrived at the main shrine for the ritual.

Although the shrine was booked out today, shrine maidens could still be seen moving around.

The fact that the shrine makes money doesn't mean they can take a holiday, because the Kamijou family's purpose in booking the entire shrine is to have the whole shrine serve them.

If that's the case, then why do the shrine maidens need to take a holiday? They must stay and serve them.

Of course, this was a proper service, since Lady Ayako Kamijou and Miss Hino Kamijou were both present. As the only two men in the group, Takumi Hagiya and Seiichiro Kamijou would absolutely not dare to make any rash moves.

But... having a shrine maiden provide you with indecent services is really amazing, just imagining it makes me excited.

After all, a shrine maiden is, in a sense, the wife of a god, so that must be a plus, right?

Chapter 133 Winter Break Ends

The sacrificial process is not complicated. It involves performing a few basic traditional rituals and then offering sacrifices. The process is basically over then.

The time spent on the ritual was even less than the time they spent traveling, which was truly incomprehensible as to why the Kamijou family would spend so much money on such a simple thing.

However... if Hanamichi Taku could understand, then he would probably already be the head of the Kamijou family.

When the ritual ended and they left Fushimi Inari Shrine, it was already past 7 p.m. Kamijo Seiichiro planned to send them home immediately and at the same time notify the servants at home to prepare dinner.

And so, the first day of the new year came to an end, and Hagiya Taku had to start preparing to return to Tokyo.

......

January 3rd.

Today is the third day of the new year, and also the last day of the Japanese New Year. After today, all schools and workplaces will resume work, and Hagiya Taku and his classmates will have to arrive at school on time tomorrow to report for duty.

Originally, Taku Hagiya planned to return to Tokyo yesterday, but since he needed to take the train just like he came, he needed to go a day earlier.

However, Kamijo Seiichiro insisted that his family send them back to Tokyo in a private plane, and Hanomiya Taku had no choice but to comply.

He was going to take a private plane back to Tokyo, and so was Kamijo Hino. In any case, Kamijo Hino still had to go to school unless absolutely necessary.

Although the turmoil at the Makino family has passed, there is no need for Kamijo Hino to hide at the Hanomiya Taku's house to avoid the storm anymore. However, no one has said anything about her coming back, not even herself.

She might not like Furukawa High School, but she had already grown to like living at Takumi Hanomiya's house.

Sleeping under the same roof with Taku every day is what Kino Kamijou longs for, just as Omi Moriyama is satisfied simply by being by Taku's side.

Unfortunately, compared to Moriyama Omi, Hagiya Taku doesn't seem to understand his own feelings.

Perhaps she understood, but she didn't intend to accept it, because no matter what, they were siblings with blood ties, and there was an inherent physical and emotional resistance between them.

Of course, only Takumi Hanomiya had this resistance; Nono Kamijou had no resistance at all, since she had already regarded Takumi Hanomiya as the person she would spend her life with.

As for Moriyama Omi... at first she disliked her, but as time went on, she found herself becoming more and more accepting of this so-called sister-in-law.

Perhaps it was because she knew that Takumi Hagiya would never leave Omi Moriyama, so she was already prepared to marry Takumi Hagiya along with her.

However, if possible, she still hoped that Moriyama Omi could disappear from Hagiya Taku's side, so that she could have him all to herself.

......

"Taku, I'll be troubling you again this year, Hino."

At noon, after having lunch, the group of three, including Hanomiya Taku, prepared to leave the Kamijou family's house and return to Tokyo.

Seiichiro and Ayako Kamijou personally came to see them off, which was quite a show of respect.

"Xiao Tuo, if you encounter any relationship problems, be sure to call me for advice immediately. Remember, it's me who you should consult."

Ayako Kamijou smiled and said to Taku Hagiya, who was sitting in the back of the car. For some reason, the second half of her sentence seemed to have a deeper meaning, as if she was reminding him.

"I understand, Uncle and Aunt. You two should also take care of yourselves. If there's a chance, I'll come back to see you this year with Hino and Omi."

Yu Gongtaku responded to the two with a smile. He still held great respect for the only two elders in the world with whom he shared blood ties.

"Take care along the way."

Then, with the two watching her go, Suzuki Chiyo started the car engine and drove the three of them away.

They arrived at a nearby airport, boarded a plane, and returned to Tokyo at an extremely fast pace, taking less than two hours in total, with the plane spending less than thirty minutes in the air.

After disembarking at Tokyo International Airport, Chiyo Suzuki escorted Taku Hagiya and Hino Kamijou home, while Omi Moriyama left alone.

Chiyo Suzuki had offered to take her home, but she said it wasn't necessary. Taku Hagiya didn't say anything, because he knew why Omi Moriyama refused.

Thus, the week-and-a-half-long winter break came to a complete end with Hagiya Taku's return from Kyoto, and starting tomorrow, he will return to school life.

Well, he prefers staying at school to long holidays, because that makes him feel less lonely.

......

January 4th.

Today is the first day after the winter break ends. As the alarm clock by the bedside rings, Yu Gongtuo, who was woken up, impatiently swatted it away.

After knocking off the alarm clock, he remained in a sleeping position for a few more minutes until the first rays of morning sunlight shone into the room through the window, at which point he finally got up.

After getting up, Yu Gongtuo first went to the bathroom to wash up, then got dressed. He glanced at the air conditioner, which was still emitting heat, but did not use the remote control to turn it off.

Leaving the room, Yu Gongtuo went outside and began his daily morning run.

Today's weather is overcast, with thick clouds pressing down overhead, creating an incredibly oppressive atmosphere, as if a monster were swallowing the entire city of Tokyo whole.

If it were summer, it would definitely be very hot and humid right now. Even though the temperature isn't very high, people sweat very easily.

However, it is winter now, and the temperature is generally low. The damp environment feels very comfortable through thick cotton clothes. Yu Gongtuo likes to do his morning exercise in this kind of weather.

Of course, this only applies to winter. If he encountered such weather in the summer, he would probably be quite annoyed.

After finishing his long-distance run, Yu Gongtuo returned home. He took off his sportswear and prepared to take a shower. Although it was winter, exercise still caused the body to sweat.

Just then, the doorbell rang. When I went to open the door, I found Suzuki Chiyo standing outside with breakfast in her hands.

I'd completely forgotten; apparently, he gets breakfast delivered to him every day.

After thanking him, Yu Gongtuo closed the door and casually placed the breakfast he was holding on the table.

Kamijou Hino hasn't gotten up yet, and it's still quite early, so he can take a shower first, have breakfast, and then wake her up.

This simple life is what Yu Gongtaku longed for. Compared to the useless life he lived at the Kamijou family, he prefers his current life.

If Suzuki Chiyo didn't bring him food every day, that would be truly perfect.

Of course, if he could, Takumi Hagiya could refuse the food that Chiyo Suzuki sent, but since she's already sent it, he can't refuse it.

Moreover, why would someone choose to spend money to buy food when there's free food available? That's either foolish or just plain stupid.

Hagami Taku isn't stupid or foolish, so he cherishes every meal Suzuki Chiyo brings him, though he doesn't know how long this will last.
