Seeing the girl suddenly stop, Yoshikage Kira turned around in confusion.

"No, it's nothing."

Shiina Mahiru pursed her lips, lowered her head, and followed in his footsteps, hesitating to speak several times:

"I... Kira-kun, why did you resign?"

She shouldn't have asked, but given the circumstances, she had no choice but to.

Yoshikage Kira stared at her for two seconds, thought for a moment, and then replied:

"For personal reasons, mainly because I've been quite busy lately."

"Busy? Busy with what?"

Shiina Mahiru's mind was a complete mess; what could she possibly be busy with?

Unlike those who cram for exams at the last minute, Yoshikage Kira's grades were not bad; he was proud to be third in his class.

He didn't participate in club activities much; he had been working part-time before.

I'm not busy with studying, nor am I busy with club activities.

What else can a student be busy with?

Yoshikage Kira didn't have many friends at school, at least not many same-sex friends.

They do have friends of the opposite sex, but they tacitly keep their distance at school, and no one knows about their close relationship.

But outside of school...

They are indeed very busy off-campus, especially in the evenings, when they are busy socializing.

"So, it really is like that?"

Shiina Mahiru stopped again, her large, caramel-colored eyes filled with shock, and her glossy, beautifully shaped cherry-colored lips parted slightly.

Her long, flaxen hair brushed gently against her skin in the breeze, giving off a faint citrus scent.

Shuchiin Academy, Twilight Shrine.

"Ugh, I'm so tired!"

A girl dressed in a red and white shrine maiden outfit, with her hair dyed a light pinkish-gold, sat on the steps, stretching and yawning without any regard for her image. Her shoes fell to the ground with a thud, and her jade-like feet, encased in black stockings, stepped onto the cold stone slabs.

"Hai Meng, you're a priestess now!"

Yumiko Miura stood next to her, muttering under her breath.

The gods are watching. Aren't you afraid of being scolded? Even if you aren't scolded, isn't it more terrifying to be remembered by the gods?

After all, gods who don't show their emotions are more likely to take revenge on others behind their backs.

And the god they serve... well, he doesn't seem very generous.

"But it's really tiring~"

Kitagawa Kaimu shifted her position, resting her elbows on her knees and supporting her cheeks with her hands, muttering softly:

"Besides, it's been a long time since we've been to Kira-kun's house, hasn't it? I wonder when we'll be able to finish our work as shrine maidens."

"Hmm~"

Yumiko Miura also fell silent, clearly sharing the same view as Kaimu Kitagawa.

A girl with long, straight black hair, dressed in a black sailor uniform, suddenly appeared beside them, frowning as she asked:

"So, what does it have to do with me whether you go to his house or not?"

Why do you talk about her as if she were some kind of villain who broke up a couple?

Kitagawa Uimeng muttered softly:

"Because I'm still serving as a shrine maiden, didn't you say that?"

Geng Xizi countered with:

What did I say?

Miura Yumiko repeated it:

"I will forgive and forget what happened in the past, but you are forbidden from having sex while you are serving as priestesses."

Geng Xizi immediately understood, and she asked:

What time is it now?

Yumiko Miura glanced at her phone:

"8:30."

What time are you leaving?

9:00.

Yumiko Miura asked in disbelief, "Aren't you just asking a question you already know the answer to?"

"What time did you arrive?"

9:00 AM.

Kitagawa Uimome replied.

On weekdays, I have to go to school, so it's from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM.

They don't need to go to school on their days off, and they have to stay at the shrine from 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.

Of course, you can also ask for leave.

That's how Akiyama Mio is; the Light Music Club has club activities, and today she took the day off to practice a new song.

"so……"

Geng Xizi said slowly and deliberately, "Isn't your time as shrine maidens from 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM? You are shrine maidens when you wear these clothes, but are you still shrine maidens when you take them off?"

"what?"

Yumiko Miura opened her mouth wide.

Kitagawa Kaimu's face was filled with disbelief:

"Hey! Is that what you mean?"

Geng Xizi countered with:

"Otherwise what? What do you think I meant? I remember I clearly said 'during my time as a shrine maiden,' didn't I?"

When you're dressed, you're a witch; when you're naked, she doesn't care who you are!

So what does this have to do with her?

She just didn't want those two to mess around in her shrine!

This is a proper shrine, and she herself is a legitimate deity recognized by the Shinto community. What legitimate deity would want their shrine maiden to be having an impromptu performance at the shrine every day?

If she doesn't forbid it, maybe one day the drama of "The shrine's garden will be the same, the shrine's maiden will be white and turbid, and the goddess will be dyed in the morning" will be staged in front of her one day!

But once it's time to leave work, unless you're at her shrine, she doesn't care what you're doing!

"I thought..."

Miura Yumiko found it difficult to speak, as she had assumed that this was a rule that would be in place as long as she remained a shrine maiden.

After all, aren't priestesses who serve the gods required to remain pure?

Geng Xizi saw through her thoughts and her eyes showed disdain:

"It's true that priestesses who serve the gods need to maintain their purity, but ask yourselves, are you pure? If we're talking about purity, then you weren't qualified priestesses in the first place!"

Miura Yumiko blushed deeply, after all, they had already been tainted by Kira Yoshikage's colors before they even became shrine maidens, so they couldn't really be considered pure.

Ultimately, they were able to become shrine maidens because of their relationship with Yoshikage Kira.

Thinking about it carefully, it's clear that Kira-kun accepted them and taught them diligently just because of one sentence from him.

The relationship between this deity and Kira seems unusual from the very beginning, doesn't it?

So what exactly is their relationship?

Miura Yumiko suddenly became curious.

Chapter 169 Taking things out of context

Shuchiin Academy, Faculty Office.

The female teacher with long, straight black hair, wearing a white lab coat, crossed her legs and stared at Yoshikage Kira with an unfriendly gaze:

"So, you really resigned?"

Yoshikage Kira nodded.

Hiratsuka Shizuka clicked her tongue:

"Can't you just give me a break? So what's the reason this time? Weren't you doing a great job? Were you being harassed?"

Although she didn't really want her students to work in bars, it was true that the pay was high.

Moreover, it's a business owned by my friend, so I don't have to worry about encountering any trouble.

Even if trouble comes his way, Kira Yoshikage's height gives him an advantage, so the trouble usually ends up being someone else's problem.

Kira Yoshikage found this job himself because he was short of money and didn't have the option of quitting because he had too much money.

If everything is good, then why did he resign?

After much thought, Hiratsuka Shizuka could only think of workplace bullying as a possibility. However, based on what she learned from Yukino Yukinoshita, Kira Yoshikage got along fairly well with his other colleagues.

Since neither of those are the case, it can only mean that I was harassed by a customer.

It just so happens that young and energetic teenagers like Yoshikage Kira are most popular with wealthy women.

Theoretically, it's also possible that someone might resign because they can't stand the harassment from the wealthy woman.

It was precisely because of this consideration that she did not call to inquire immediately, but waited until school to ask Yoshikage Kira for a question.
