As the savior, I only want to play single-player games.

Imagining that Suzuka immediately picked up a piece and handed it to her, Suzuka immediately covered the bowl with her hand. Her eyes were watery, but her tone was stubborn: "I don't want what you picked up!"

Her voice sounded somewhat shrill. Seeing this, Suzuka sighed slightly, thinking that their sudden arrival might have offended her.

"Suzuka-chan, I apologize for disturbing you."

"If you know you're bothering me, then get out!" Suzuka Ise thought to herself, feeling inexplicably wronged.

Suddenly, a force came from her neck and lifted her up.

Kagura Tendo placed Suzuka on his lap, his expression cold and stern.

"Let's eat."

……

……

……

This chapter will be updated, one more chapter is still owed.

The Best of Times, The Worst of Times: Chapter 46: A Bright Future for All

This sudden turn of events caught Suzuka off guard, and she only came to her senses after sitting down.

She felt Kagura's body temperature on her back; it was warm and soft.

Her ears twitched involuntarily, like an excited fawn, and her extremely gloomy face immediately relaxed.

Sitting on Tendo Kagura's lap, all resentment and grievances vanished in that moment.

"Did you buy the hair clip yourself?" Kagura Tendo asked softly, looking at Suzuka.

"It was given to me by Yuzuru; this is a return gift," she replied softly.

Kagura Tendo didn't say anything more, which left Suzuka somewhat disappointed.

The second half of the meal was quiet. After Miko and the others finished eating, they were about to leave. The younger sister clearly didn't like them. Tendo Kagura had been kind to them and didn't want Suzuka to feel uncomfortable.

Kagura Tendo placed Suzuka on a chair and personally saw them out.

"This is very important for you. Eat as much as you can, the more the better. When it's almost overflowing, that's about right," he said softly to Xiaohua, standing at the door.

He handed her the thermos, which, according to his traditional understanding, contained the essence of life carefully stewed from rare medicinal herbs such as thousand-year-old ginseng, lingzhi, and deer antler.

"Will I get fat?" Xiaohua was a little worried, thinking that eating so much might make her gain weight.

“…No.” Tendo Kagura sighed.

Warriors are just the beginning of this system; once they reach a certain level, they can have complete control over their own flesh and blood.

He paused, feeling that he should make Yurikawa realize the cruelty of the world, and then said, "I will find you and temper your will."

But Xiaohua didn't seem to understand what that meant.

Then, Tendou Kagura looked at Miko. Based on his observation, Miko had adapted to the spiritual treasure almost completely. With the guidance in his dream, it was highly likely that Miko could become a spiritual master.

"Sleep more. Perhaps some strange things will happen to you. Don't panic. Stay calm and conquer yourself in your dreams as quickly as possible. Only in this way can you truly enter the mystical world and become a spiritual master. At that time, you will have the power to protect yourself and will not need to rely on others."

"Can I become a Spirit Master too?" Miko was overjoyed and surprised when she suddenly heard Tendo Kagura say this. She had missed the Shadow and Warrior systems, but now she was finally blessed. However, she couldn't understand why she suddenly had to become a Spirit Master.

The Heavenly God Music nodded, seeing that the child's spirit was complete and full of energy, indicating that a transformation was about to take place.

"You already have that potential."

Kagura Tendou tells Kenko that if humans want to become spiritual masters, they themselves are their greatest enemy, and they need to defeat them to achieve initial transcendence.

However, depending on one's experience and mindset, the enemies one defeats will also be different.

Some people have to overcome their past, some have to confront their psychological shadows, and some have to make up for their weaknesses and flaws in character.

"The path of the spiritualist is to renounce the body and attain transcendence and eternity..."

"Doesn't that make you a god?" Xiao Hua said in surprise, then looked at Jian Zi with envy: "Jian Zi, you're so lucky."

"Hua..." Seeing Zi's helplessness, her original joy was shattered by Xiao Hua.

Can you and I translate what "good luck" means?

"I'll do my best!" she said, though she was still a little excited.

Finally, Kagura Tendou looked at Yūria.

The three were arranged in order: first Xiaohua, then Jianzi, and finally Youliya.

The petite girl with pigtails immediately straightened her back and tucked in her stomach, looking at Kagura Tendo with great anticipation.

Xiao Hua received an unlimited supply of life essence, and Jian Zi became a promising spiritual master. What about her?

"...If you ever fall into depravity, even if Yurikawa doesn't kill you, I will." Tendo Kagura looked at Yūria and spoke slowly before turning back.

Yuria's face stiffened, and she stood there motionless.

She was threatened by Tendo Kagura.

……

Back in the living room, Suzuka had already finished eating, the table had been cleared, and she was in the kitchen, tiptoeing and struggling to wash the dishes.

Tendou Kagura took her away and silently washed the dishes again.

Suzuka stood behind him, her hands behind her back, digging her toes into the ground, trying to make a hole in the floor.

"What is it?" After finishing her work, Kagura Tendo wiped her hands with a kitchen towel and turned around to ask.

Suzuka rarely does housework, partly because he forbids it, and partly because she does it very poorly.

Unsolicited kindness usually means someone wants something from you.

Is it because of Miko and the others?

But there's no room for negotiation; who he invites has nothing to do with Suzuka.

"I want to alter my school uniform..." Suzuka said softly.

"why?"

“Everyone has changed, and Yuzuru-chan said she wanted to change today too,” Suzuka explained, but the latter part of her sentence was the main reason.

Tendou Kagura listened in silence for a moment, and then she understood.

Japan is like a sieve; anyone can have an impact on it, but like water seeping through the ground, everything eventually integrates into the local culture.

The school uniform style originated in Britain, but the aesthetics came from the United States, and students were happy to express their individuality.

So the factions advocating for abolishing uniforms and those supporting them argued for years, eventually reaching a middle ground—allowing students to make minor alterations to their uniforms to suit their own aesthetic preferences, but not to make them unrecognizable or overly colorful, otherwise they would attract attention and be disrespectful to others.

It doesn't matter to the boys, but it's mainly the girls who want to highlight their charm. Some will lengthen their skirts slightly to the knees and pair them with bubble socks, creating an extremely cute girlish look; others will wear long socks with short skirts; or they will leave the cuffs long to cover the back of their hands and make the school uniform as loose as possible to show off their petite figures.

In short, Suzuka also wanted to do this. She mentioned Yuzuru, who actually suggested it, saying that the sailor uniform was too revealing, and Suzuka wanted to keep up with the times.

"I'll go buy fabric tomorrow." He nodded slightly. "Go to sleep."

Suzuka immediately trotted out.

After Tendo Kagura and Suzuka finished their baths, they also took a bath as usual, returned to their bedroom, and descended into the pitch-black world.

After this period of accumulation, more than 20,000 pitch-black monsters have appeared here.

There are still many monsters scattered across the fields. Compared to cities where food is scarce, the wilderness is perhaps more suitable for their survival. The remaining number is somewhat greater than Kagura Tendou had anticipated.

Years later, will these monsters be able to regain their sanity amidst endless madness and give rise to a new civilization?

This thought inexplicably arose in his mind.

However, Kagura did not feel guilty for extinguishing the hope of civilization. He slaughtered these monsters again and separated a portion of the divine curse.

Because the pressure on the descendant has been reduced, he is able to exert even greater power.

Recharging the moon once again and continuously emitting information for 24 hours, Kagura Tendo has returned.

It is midnight.

Kagura's true form disappeared from the dark bedroom and appeared in front of Yurikawa Hana's sleeping bed.

The Best of Times, The Worst of Times: Chapter 47: Gu, Just Kill Me!

Yuri Kawana's bedroom is quite large, which shows that her family is well-off; otherwise, they wouldn't be able to afford to support her.

Tendou Kagura did not conceal her aura; she was just like an ordinary person.

Yurikawa Kaoru suddenly opened her eyes, her keen senses detecting something unusual. There was an extra person in the room, and the sense of difference immediately woke her up from her sleep.

She sat up and looked over there. In the area shrouded in darkness, she could make out a fairly clear outline with her eyesight, and there was that familiar scent.

"You are... Tendo Kagura?"

Xiao Hua was filled with surprise and doubt, unable to understand why Tiandao Shenle would appear here. She had closed the door properly and instinctively hugged the blanket tightly.

"You, you should leave now. I can't let you down... no, it's that you can't let Miko down."

"However, considering you gave me food, I won't tell Jianzi. Don't come looking for me again."

Kagura Tendou's expression remained cold and unmoved as she said, "Come with me."

"Where to?" she asked instinctively.

Kagura Tendou slightly raised her hand, and the scene suddenly changed. Xiaohua found that her warm bed had disappeared. She slumped to the ground, sitting in a duck-like position with an innocent look on her face. A wild wind blew in, mercilessly slapping her face.

She looked up and saw the setting sun like blood in the distance, the endless, dusky grassland with sparse trees, and a wide river flowing quietly across the opposite side, its surface reflecting the sunset. Hundreds of meters away, a herd of elephants was migrating, occasionally raising their trunks high and letting out loud calls.

She looked around blankly, then a piercing scream echoed through the sky.

After about half a minute, the screams subsided, and Xiao Hua, who had calmed down, seemed a little uneasy: "Where am I?"

“It should be Africa,” Kagura Tendo said. He wasn’t very good at geography and had just picked it randomly.

"Why am I here?" She occasionally thought about traveling abroad while watching TV, but never in this way.

"I told you beforehand that I would come to find you."

"But this is way too fast!" Xiaohua complained. "I'm still in my pajamas!"

Tendou Kagura did not reply.
