"Before you rescued Kana, did you ever think of using your own abilities to control Betty?"

"Betty?"

After hearing her words, Ji Hui also blinked, picked up a chicken wing with chopsticks, and spread the sticky sauce on the rice.

"That's the blue-haired girl I fought."

"Oh, her."

Ji Hui nodded and then spoke.

"I'd like to take her down right away, but unfortunately my ability only affects everyone within my field of vision. Although it will be weakened due to different attention spans, when you two are fighting, you'll be affected as well."

"Plus, I happened to see your sister pushing the door open, so I was afraid something might happen to her, so I ran out first."

"....I see."

After silently dispelling her suspicion that he had deliberately waited until something was about to happen to Hazen Kana before showing up, Hazen Chizuru nodded slightly.

"But speaking of which, who are those men in black? I see you seem quite afraid of them."

Ji Hui asked curiously, remembering how Chizuru Yuzen hurriedly pushed herself into the basement without making any sound after temporarily wiping the rain off her body with a wet towel.

"They are the logistics members of the Dark Mace Garden."

Chizuru Hazen said casually, but after looking at the confused eyes of Ji Hui who was holding a chicken wing in front of her, she couldn't help but sigh.

"The Dark Mace Garden is a logistical organization composed of people who know about the existence of magical girls. They don't have the ability to directly fight the fallen demons, but they are responsible for maintaining the magical girls after battle and various auxiliary tasks, such as providing necessary information, logistical support for the injured, and commissioning missions when fallen demons and outer demons appear. From time to time, they also issue subjugation missions to dangerous demons."

"Also, they are responsible for the evaluation and review of magical girls. Although they are not part of the Holy Spirit Temple, they are closely related to the existence of magical girls, like a partner. They judge whether the magical girls have met the requirements of their missions, as well as their performance in combat and in life."

"Logistics organization"

After spitting out the bone and putting it on the napkin, Ji Hui nodded thoughtfully, but then he reacted and asked in surprise.

"Eh? No, demon? Isn't that a fallen demon?"

"Yes, demon."

Chizuru Hazen nodded, and after a pause, she continued.

"Demons were born in this world and are part of the living creatures. However, most of them are brutal by nature. To humans, they are no different from ferocious beasts and evil spirits."

"But the Fallen Demons are different. They were created by the Star-Breaking Palace as killing weapons specifically designed to plunder the planet's power. They are enemies from another world, not products of this planet."

"Therefore, although most of the time, magical girls are on missions to subdue fallen demons and outer demons, commissions to eliminate demons are also issued in the Dark Mace Garden as part of magical girl life."

"You should have seen that I didn't use the power of a magical girl directly. Instead, I used my own spiritual power. Kana and I are descendants of the exorcist clan who make a living by destroying demons. It's just that I became a magical girl later."

"So, in terms of my talent as a magical girl, I, who have already participated in demon-slaying missions, am better than those girls who were originally just ordinary people."

"Oh I got it"

As she spoke, Ji Hui also rubbed his chin slightly.

"So the relationship between the Broken Star Palace and the Fallen Demons is similar to the relationship between the Yabo people and the Ultra Beasts?"

"Yabo people? Ultra beasts?"

And Chizuru Hazen also frowned slightly, causing Ji Hui to blink.

"Don't you know? Ultraman, monsters, and movies and TV shows like the Giant of Light?"

"I don't know, what is that?"

"Okay, it's nothing, just pretend I didn't say anything."

Seeing her confused look, Ji Hui quickly shook his head, and at the same time, he felt a little emotional in his heart.

It seems that there is no special effects drama like Ultraman in this world

Maybe I can think about the entertainment in this world and become a plagiarist to make some extra money?

Although it seems that my memory has not improved much, and I don’t have any photographic memory or anything like that.

"In short, the Dark Mace Garden exists like this. So if your affairs are exposed, they will definitely come after you, not to mention me who secretly harbors you, an extraterritorial demon."

Scar Yuran Chizuru did not dwell on what she had just said. After taking a deep breath, she asked in a serious tone.

"No wonder I was wondering why magical girls still came to me even though I felt I was hiding well and didn't see many other girls."

Ji Hui muttered, took another bite of rice, and said with some emotion.

"Hey, you know what, the rice you cooked is quite delicious, your cooking skills are pretty good. Sure enough, people like us who support our families are not too bad at cooking."

"Supporting a family?"

3Hasumi Chizuru frowned slightly, while Ji Hui enjoyed the delicacies in front of him and spoke casually.

"Well, unlike you who has a sister, I was an orphan from the beginning. If I hadn't been adopted by an old man, I might have starved to death on the streets or even lived in an orphanage until I died."

"That"

"died."

Seeing Chizuru Hazen's hesitant expression, Ji Hui guessed what she wanted to ask and spoke directly.

"Don't give me that look. The old man died of old age, and I gave him a good burial."

"If I hadn't suddenly come to this world, I would have continued to work and earn money alone, and maybe found a decent partner to live with. Although my goals seem to be similar now."

"All right"

After nodding slightly, Chizuru Hazen, not knowing what to say, had to change the subject again.

"Besides that obscene ability, do you have any other abilities?"

Chapter 17: Overnight Invitation

It's not just about ability. From the initial events to what happened after the time travel, Chizuru Yuzen asked almost everything Ji Hui could ask.

Moreover, with the delicious meal in front of him as a reward, Ji Hui cooperated very well and answered her questions without hesitation.

Anyway, for him, these things are not secrets at all, and there is nothing worth hiding.

What's more, he was also hoping that Chizuru Yuzen in front of him would stop using the name of the alien demon and give him a hand by giving him a job.

Therefore, the interrogation continued until late at night, and it ended only after Ji Hui finally finished his third bowl of rice and burped with satisfaction.

"Wow, this is the most comfortable meal I've had since I traveled through time. Boxed lunches can't compare."

Ji Hui said with some emotion, but looking at Chizuru Yuzen in front of him, she seemed to have no sense of relief at all, but her brows were even more furrowed than before. He couldn't help but ask with some confusion.

"What's wrong? You look like something's not right."

After hearing his words, Chizuru Yuzen finally came back to her senses from her thoughts. Looking at Ji Hui who was puzzled behind the table of leftovers, she shook her head slightly.

"No, nothing, just..."

She was not so naive as to think that whatever the other party said was the truth and believed everything Ji Hui said.

But from the current perspective, there is indeed nothing suspicious about what he said, not to mention that the other party has indeed not shown any malice since this meeting.

But if this is really the case, then who is controlling Betty?

Is there really someone else, or is this alien demon in front of him who knows nothing about the world and doesn't even realize that he is doing evil?

After all, the other party also said that he didn't even know how he came to this world, let alone where his abilities came from, so it is very likely that some of the other party's abilities cannot even be controlled by himself.

Even if he really had no intention, but when the fallen demons were offering sacrifices, it happened that it was the Wild-Eyed Demon who possessed such evil power. Maybe he was really doing evil unconsciously.

In this case

"You can stay in this room tonight.

Chizuru Hazen spoke, causing Jihui's eyes to widen in surprise.

"Ah? Didn't you tell me to finish my meal and leave immediately?"

Although it was indeed nice to be able to live in a warm room instead of sleeping under a bridge in the rain, the other party's sudden change of attitude also made Ji Hui feel a little confused.

"Kana already knows of your existence anyway, so there's no point in hiding you or kicking you out straight away."

Chizuru Hazen looked at him calmly in surprise, and then spoke.

"Besides, although it's not really necessary, I also want to express my gratitude for your action in saving Kana, so it's not impossible for you to stay here for one night."

As she spoke, she looked at the window with the curtains drawn, but the sound of rain could still be heard faintly.

"An incident involving a magical girl being controlled happened tonight. Maybe members of the Dark Mace Garden are also wandering around outside and watching. If I let you run away casually and expose my hiding you, I'll be in trouble."

"To be on the safe side, it's better for you to stay here obediently."

Seeing that Chizuru Yuzen had said so, Ji Hui, who also wanted to find a safe place to have a good sleep, naturally had no reason to refuse.

"Well, since you've said so, I'll obey your command."

As he spoke, he looked at the rather spacious room with some emotion.

"But you really trust me, a grown man, to stay in your shrine."

"Don't worry, I'll set up a barrier in front of the door and throughout the room, if you want to come out at night..."

As Chizuru Hazen spoke, she slightly raised her palms and formed them into a flame-like shape.

"You will be burned to ashes by the flames, so you'd better be honest."

"Don't worry, I can't wait to fall asleep and sleep until I wake up naturally."

Looking at her somewhat provocative look, Ji Hui couldn't help but roll his eyes.

But then, he seemed to suddenly think of something and asked quickly.

"Oh yeah, didn't you say there was a barrier set up inside the shrine? Why didn't you see any reaction when that magical girl came?"

Amidst his curious expression, Chizuru Hazen also shook her head slightly.

"The barrier I set up is only to resist attacks from demons and the Broken Star Palace. It naturally has no effect on ordinary people and magical girls. Otherwise, we wouldn't even be able to worship."

Although, with the current fame of the shrine, there are basically not many people coming to worship.

After hearing what she said, Ji Hui's expression became helpless and he couldn't help but complain.

"Your barrier is purely for protecting gentlemen, not villains."

However, Chizuru Yuzen didn't say much. After standing up and looking at Ji Hui for a while, she couldn't help but frowned.

"Don't you have anything else to wear?"

Although it had dried up a little indoors, there were still a lot of water stains on the coat next to him and the clothes he was wearing, not to mention the stains on them and the dust on his body.

"No, after all, I don't have much money. Borrowing a house and paying it back is enough. I can't be that extravagant."

Ji Hui shook his head gently, causing Hanezome Chizuru to sigh.

"Well, before that, you have to take a shower. Otherwise, if you use the blanket, you'll get all the mud and dust on it because you're so dirty."

"Actually, it's fine for me to just lie on the tatami like this. I'm pretty much used to it anyway."

Looking at Chizuru Hazen who was holding the plates, Ji Hui quickly spoke, but was met with her rolling eyes.

"That's not in line with the shrine's hospitality. Even though he's an outlandish demon, he's still a guest. Our family wouldn't be so rude as to let a guest sleep on the floor."

"Okay, okay, I'll wash the dishes myself, is that okay?"

Ji Hui stood up and took the pile of greasy plates from her hand. After hesitating for a while, Chizuru Yuzen nodded slightly.

"Okay, I'll take you to the bathroom after you're done washing."

Seeing the other party nodded and ran straight to the kitchen, Chizuru Hazen couldn't help but sigh again.

Anyway, let's see if the other party really has any strange actions tonight.

Chapter 18: Chizuru Yuzen's Sleepless Night

I have to say, this was the most comfortable sleep Ji Hui had had since he came into this world.

The soft bed and safe environment made him even briefly forget that this was someone else's home. It was not until Chizuru Hazen woke him up the next day that he finally walked into the living room of the shrine under her guidance, yawning.

"Ah, good morning, Brother Ji Hui."

And next to the dining table, Yu Ran Kana, who had also finished washing up, blinked her eyes, looking at Ji Hui who was sitting opposite the table with curiosity and excitement.

Last night, it was already late at night when Anjianyuan left completely. So although Yuzen Kana was full of curiosity about this strange big brother who appeared out of nowhere, she still went to bed obediently under the forced request of Yuzen Chizuru.

Therefore, she is now almost impatient to satisfy her curiosity and ask what the relationship between Ji Hui and her sister is.

"Haha~ Looking for the book club this morning:,→Qilulu is good~"
