Hawks from the Land of Light are calling me a dove and an undercover agent in the chat group.

"Since mages are so lacking in unclaimed supernatural power, let's talk about that."

Spell system, activate!

Chapter 137: The Offline Meeting, the Shadow of the Three Heroes' Time and Space.

Yotsuya Miko.

Today is the day after the all-out battle between the two beings at the pinnacle of ultimate arcane power in the arcane universe. It is also a day worth celebrating and commemorating, as she has finally saved enough to go to the world of her friends.

If she could, her first choice would undoubtedly be the Ultra Universe.

Although ordinary people generally cannot withstand the radiation from the Plasma Spark Tower in the Land of Light, if someone goes to visit, the Ultramen will naturally help prepare items to prevent contact.

If someone could go to the Land of Light, it would be a dreamlike adventure that is infinitely more fantastical than any other travel experience.

Unfortunately, I can't go.

Since the battle ended, the entire Land of Light, including Uncle Kasa, has been so busy that they haven't had a moment's rest. As a result, Uncle Kasa hasn't posted in the group chat for two days.

If we can't go to the Land of Light, then we'll have to go somewhere else.

Meanwhile, on Bruce's side, Yotsuya Miko was also quite eager to try.

Miko Yotsuya is certainly not short of money now. As a special figure known to the global elite, Miko Yotsuya lives a peaceful life because she has no material desires. However, if she were to express even the slightest thought in that regard, she would immediately find herself inexplicably winning the lottery.

Miko Yotsuya's interest in the Bruce world wasn't because Bruce was a wealthy man, but because, according to Hachiman, Uncle Bruce was a very interesting person.

She also wanted to meet another older man in the group.

However, it's not possible to go now, since Uncle Bruce seems to be exceptionally busy lately, although he hasn't explicitly stated what he's been busy with.

As for the world of Hachiman, well, it's even busier there.

As one of the people closest to Gojo Satoru, who is now the strongest in the world and stands on the stage, along with Fushiguro Megumi, Itadori Yuujin, and Otoko Yuuta, many things in the jutsu world need to be handled personally.

This even included some connections to the surface world; after being given a little instruction by Gojo Satoru, they helped take over a portion of it.

I am absolutely unable to get away for the time being.

Furthermore, due to the changes involving demon aggregates, Ultraman, sorcerers, and cursed spirits, the world of Hachiman is currently rife with undercurrents, making it impossible to have a proper vacation there.

So now the only good place left is Yuta's place.

[Coward]: "Are you really sure it's okay? Even though no new monsters have appeared here for two days, it's still not exactly safe, you know?"

[Best Actor]: "It's alright!"

[Actor]: "Look, even if there are monsters, Gridman will come to help, right? And didn't you say that a group of weirdos called 'New Century Junior High Students' came to meet you in the last two days, saying they were Gridman's helpers? Now that you have helpers, you're more confident, aren't you?"

[Actor]: "Of course, I won't be a burden to you. If things really get dangerous over there, I can always get back to you through the chat group, so you don't need to worry."

[Coward]: "Huh? Now that you mention it, that makes sense, doesn't it?"

[Coward]: "Then..."

[Coward]: "Wait for me a moment, I'll go buy some snacks and drinks, and then I'll treat you properly!"

[Actor/Actress]: "Hmm!"

The base is below the line.

Hibiki Yuta rubbed his hands together like a fly, a little nervous. Although he wasn't an introverted person, this was the first time he had ever met an online friend in person, and from another world at that.

Although he really hoped that the first person he would meet in person would be Uncle Casa, meeting Zi would be good too, since they are good friends who would meet sooner or later anyway.

Hibiki Yuta hummed the theme song of the original Ultraman and went on a shopping spree without sparing any of his living expenses. After carrying the groceries home, he took the initiative to clean and tidy up the already clean house.

The tea snacks and drinks were laid out on plates and poured into the bowl, and the TV was turned on, playing a local food program, creating a warm and cozy scene.

After finishing his work, Hibiki Yuta wiped the sweat from his forehead and proudly put his hands on his hips.

Agree to the shuttle, click!

In the blink of an eye, a beautiful girl appeared in the cozy little home.

Yotsuya Miko was already very beautiful, and since resolving the paranormal issue, she has become less gloomy and more sunny, making her even more charming. She blinked and looked around.

"Wow... You seem to be even better at housework than me! Your feminine strength is amazing, Yuta!"

Yotsuya Miko exclaimed in amazement, "Whoever marries you will be so lucky!"

Did you use the wrong word?

Hibiki Yuta gave a wry smile, "It should be 'marry,' not 'marry,' but 'I'm a boy, you know.'"

"Oh, I'm so sorry, it's because you're so fair-skinned and have such a gentle and sweet demeanor that I accidentally... you know."

Yotsuya Miko felt a little embarrassed, looked at the tea and snacks on the table, and without any politeness, sat down on the sofa to taste them. "Eh, these are things I've never eaten before. Although they are roughly from the same era and in the same world, there are still many subtle differences in the specifics."

"This is really delicious. I'll buy some for Xiaohua and the others to try when I get back. I just don't know if the money from over there will be considered counterfeit here."

"If it's mistaken for counterfeit money, then I'll use my money."

Hibiki Yuta said quite naturally.

He's not just pretending to be generous. If it were about buying king crab or something, he wouldn't have that much money to splurge on. But buying some snacks for friends is something he can afford, and since he has the money, he's willing to spend it.

Yotsuya Miko tilted her head and thought for a moment. Her long, smooth black hair slid down her shoulders, making her look cute and pretty, but her appearance couldn't match the beauty of her heart: "Well, when I get back, I'll buy some local specialties from my place and give you a red envelope to try them, okay?"

Hibiki Yuta thought for a moment, then exclaimed with delight, "That's great!"

He's not a glutton, but if he could get some delicious food from Miko that's not available here, he could let Utsumi, Rikka, and Shinjo try it too, which might make them happy.

After all, everyone has been somewhat gloomy ever since the monster appeared.

Hibiki Yuta also thought that he might be able to exchange some food specialties with Hachiman and Uncle Bruce, which would be great!

The tension of meeting in person disappears completely without you even realizing it. You could even say that the moment the two sides meet, there is no longer the slightest sense of separation.

As friends who have shared life and death in a certain sense, the bond between the group members has become so strong that they don't even need to greet each other when they meet.

Hibiki Yuta was about to say something when suddenly the doorbell rang.

"Huh?"

He was puzzled. Who was it?

Hibiki Yuta walked to the door, opened it, and was immediately dumbfounded to see the three of them gathered together: "Utsumi? Rikka? And Shinjo-kun? What are you doing here? We didn't agree to meet yesterday, did we?"

"You're so lazy, Yuuta!"

Utsumi pushed up his glasses and snorted, "Although the monsters haven't appeared for two days, it's not time to relax yet. The Gridman X-Monster Battle meeting still needs to be held!"

"Um, but how should I put it?"

Higashi Yuta stammered.

“We can’t just think about ourselves, Yuta.”

Utsumi shook his head in exasperation. "Since fate has brought us together with Gridman and his friends, we're no longer ordinary high school students. Come on, Yuuta, today's meeting will be held here!"

Rikka Takarada twirled her hair and glanced at Yuuta. "Well, I think that makes some sense. Although I don't really care about fighting, there's nothing to do on my day off, so it's okay, right?"

"and……"

Her voice dropped rapidly, so low that even she could barely hear it herself. "I kind of want to see you too, you idiot Yuuta!"

Hibiki Yuta, who hadn't heard anything, hesitated, wanting to stop them but not knowing how, and could only watch helplessly as the three entered his house.

Although meeting up with group members in person isn't something to hide, since it's rare for Jianzi to come all the way here, she might not like having other people join in.

Hibiki Yuta was still thinking when he rushed into the living room. The three of them exclaimed in surprise when they saw that there were people there: "Ah!"

"Who goes there!"

Utsumi's eyes widened, and he assumed a defensive stance. He was such a huge fan of tokusatsu that he was practically obsessed with it, and his first thought was that some kind of mastermind was planning to launch a sneak attack on his best friend Yuta's house.

"Is it a girl?"

Rikka Takarada can see it more clearly.

Akane Shinjo chuckled and corrected her, "She's a beautiful girl! Oh my, a beautiful girl I've never seen before! She's just as stunning as Rikka! Yuuta-kun is keeping her hidden away, no wonder you're so nervous."

Rikka Takarada's expression suddenly turned negative, and she stood frozen in place.

Hibiki was so anxious he was almost in tears: "No, that's not it! Miko is a friend! Don't make wild guesses, Shinjo-kun, I'm begging you!"

"Eh~"

Akane Shinjo, hands behind her back, still smiling, said, "You're just calling me by my name? This is my name, isn't it? But to me, I'm still Shinjo-kun."

"that!"

Miko Yotsuya suddenly raised her hand, interrupting the somewhat chaotic scene, "I am Miko Yotsuya, Yuta's... no, Hibiki's online friend, and I'm here today to meet him in person for the first time."

"I've heard him mention that he has three very close friends. This male classmate must be Utsumi, right? You're Shinjo, so the last one must be Takarada, right?"

Instead of letting the perverse Akane Shinjo continue to toy with Hibiki Yuuta and make the situation even more chaotic, Yotsuya Miko, being a girl, was naturally much more perceptive in matters of the heart than Yuuta.

Although they had only just met, Rikka Takarada's brief change in expression and demeanor gave her enough confidence to know who she was.

She can be Cupid!

"She really is very beautiful, Takarada-kun. She also looks so gentle. No wonder Hibiki-kun kept saying that he had fallen for a really wonderful girl!"

"However, since we've never met in person, I didn't know how to give him any advice. Now that I've finally met him in person, I think any pursuit plan is not important for a girl like Baoduo. What's most important is a sincere heart, don't you think, Xiang?"

Huh?!

Yotsuya Miko's direct question was so shocking that three out of the five people present immediately covered their mouths in shock.

As a close friend, Utsumi naturally knew about Hibiki Yuta's preferences long ago, but he also knew that Yuta had been hesitant to reveal them because he wasn't confident enough. He never expected that Yuta would be exposed so unexpectedly now.

Hibiki Yuta and Takarada Rikka were even more panicked. They instinctively looked at each other, then immediately looked away, their faces flushed, and they couldn't utter a sound.

Jealousy vanished instantly. Rikka Takarada no longer saw Miko Yotsuya as an outsider who had stolen her life; she was simply hesitant about how to get along with Yuuta next.

As for whether she has feelings for him, she definitely does; she can sense it herself. She actually likes Yuta a little... But when it comes to confessing or becoming boyfriend and girlfriend, she doesn't seem ready for that yet.

Because she's very innocent, she's never thought about or even been involved in this kind of thing before.

Well, although she occasionally gets confessed to by other guys, she always rejects them outright.

I've never felt this way about Yuta before—my heart fluttered, my face flushed, and I hesitated.

"Hmph~"

Yotsuya Miko chuckled to herself.
