I'm raising a fox fairy wife in Tokyo

Shijo Maki did not forget the most important thing.

That is.

The girl in front of me named "Merry" is suspicious in herself, so can I trust what she says?

Lord Long's mind is far too clear.

Following beside the boy, Shijou Maki couldn't help but think this.

The two left the infirmary without warning, leaving the girl who had been sitting by the bed somewhat bewildered.

"what……"

Mary let out a small cry.

"I'm being suspected."

Using a voice that only she could hear, another ethereal yet noisy girl then began to speak.

"It's all your fault, my brother is gone!"

"Don't make any noise."

"That woman is despicable! Why should my brother take her away? Kill her! Kill that bastard!!"

"..."

"Useless fellow, if it were me..."

"If it were you, you would already be disliked, no, you would be completely regarded as an enemy."

"nonsense!"

The girl's mutterings suddenly stopped.

because.

Mei saw it; the door to the infirmary was pushed open again, and Takagawa Takayuki returned with Shijo Maki.

"Ah, I forgot something."

"..."

The boy said this as he walked in and began searching for something among the tables.

Do not know why.

For the first time in her life, Mary felt her heart racing.

She was indeed frightened.

"It seems I made a mistake..."

The boy found nothing, and then left with Shijou Maki.

Hey, what are you doing?!

Are you trying to scare people on purpose?!

Mei remained silent.

Sitting on the edge of the bed for a long time, until it seemed that the boy had really left, the silver-haired girl known as "Princess Kaguya" wanted to jump out and make a fuss again.

"I don't care, I don't care, I want to play with my big brother..."

"..."

The door to the infirmary was pushed open again.

Meili sat on the edge of the bed, nervously watching the boy walk in.

"Has Takagawa-san forgotten something again?"

"Do not."

Gao Chuanlong shook his head and said softly.

"I think it's dangerous for Meili to be alone at school, so I'll take you out first."

"what……"

……

late at night.

Meili stood outside Xiuzhiyuan Academy, watching the young man easily climb over the wall and return to the school.

[As expected, I've become a suspect.]

Without a doubt, she had already sensed it.

That is.

If I go back to school and the boy finds me, I'll definitely be killed...

Chapter Fifty: The purpose of the Death Seal is... to find someone to marry?!

We can't just waste the body we finally got.

Well.

Anyway, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future, let's take it slow.

and.

Meili looked expressionlessly at the school under the night sky.

Ignoring that noisy Kaguya-hime who only talks about "Big Brother" all day long, I've already achieved my goal.

Next, all you need to do is savor despair...

……

The tower is located not far behind the school building; it can be easily reached by simply passing through a small courtyard with a fountain.

"Long-kun, Nanami doesn't seem to be interested in us at all."

Along the way.

Shijo Maki discovered that the writhing, half-human, half-snake shadows completely ignored her and Takagawa Takayuki.

He even brushed past the two of them several times, but he showed absolutely no intention of "attacking" them.

Not only that.

She herself wasn't cursed—the "death mark" on her thigh was still the same deep red.

Did you fail to attract the other person's attention?

At this moment.

The two stood in the garden and could see the spire-like top of the teaching building in the distance, with its blue tiles displaying a cool hue under the night sky.

A huge, crawling woman.

And those writhing black shadows surrounding me.

They kept climbing up and down the outer walls of the school building, and every now and then they would pause for a long time in front of the window.

What are you looking for?

"Maybe."

"what……"

“Spirits all have their own purpose, which is similar to an obsession, and is also closely related to their curses.”

Shijo Maki knew this.

In that case.

What is the purpose of the 【Death Mark】?

"Taste despair."

"Eh?"

"It's just speculation from some of our colleagues that the curse of the [Death Mark] will continuously attract [spirits], and as long as the source remains, it will always be like this."

No matter what, one cannot escape the terror until the day one dies.

Those terrifying beings will then harass your relatives and friends.

therefore.

The constant scrambling to find solutions inevitably leads to intense despair.

"However, there are other explanations, such as it was simply for playing games."

"game?"

"Ah, treating being cursed by the [spirit] as a game, winning by breaking the curse and losing by not being able to, and continuing like this almost permanently, naturally brings a certain kind of fun."

There are indeed people who enjoy it.

Experience the horror of the extraordinary and immerse yourself in the terror it brings.

"He's a pervert, isn't he?"

"Ah, indeed."

Takagawa Tatsuya thought that the guy who thought that way was a pervert.

But this world is full of all sorts of strange people.

"And the final statement."

"besides?"

"Ah."

The "Death Mark" is actually a trial, in which the "perfect person" is selected by constantly resolving the "spirits" that entangle them.

then……

"Then what?"

"marry."

"ha?!!"

"Probably, it can't be saving the world or becoming a god or something like that."

"Marriage is even more impossible!!"

"I think this statement is more reasonable..."

No, no.

This is completely abnormal, and isn't it too repressed? Don't you have a wife... ah, no, if your wife is a shrew like that, then the repression is normal.

Although it's not really nice to say it like that.

But it's the truth, after all, we can't just...

!!!

Even Fujiwara couldn't imagine such a terrible thing! How could a human do such a thing?!

shook his head.

For some reason, Shijo Maki felt her heart pounding wildly.

If it doesn't work with Miss Fox, does that mean it's possible... that it really can only be with girls... that kind of thing... can only be done with normal girls... I can't just never do it again... so it's possible...?

"No matter what, isn't the [Death Mark] a terrifying thing? How can I marry someone like that?"

"It might be very cute."

"???"

"【Spirit】can be quite cute too."

"..."

Hey, hey, hey, has this guy been suppressing his feelings for so long that even his aesthetic sense has gone awry?!
