Stardew Valley of Gensokyo

Cirno could easily have come up with something this simple.

"But this eerie forest is so scary, Cirno-chan, shall we go back to the lake?"

The great fairy was terrified. Although snuggling close to Cirno provided some sense of security, she still felt as if some ferocious beast was watching them with hungry eyes from the dark forest.

"No way! I'm definitely going to eat this feast!"

Although she was scared off by Aya Shameimaru for a while, Cirno soon thought that as the strongest in Gensokyo, why should she be afraid of a little tengu?

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Then, disregarding the approaching night, Cirno set off with the Great Fairy.

"Ugh, okay, Cirno-chan, we'd better hurry up."

Seeing that Cirno seemed determined, the Great Fairy gave in and could only tell Cirno to walk faster.

Although fairies can fly, it's nighttime and they can't see the road clearly. Moreover, if they fly over the forest at this time, they'll be sitting ducks. So Cirno and the others have no choice but to travel on the ground.

Just as the two of them were walking forward with their heads covered, a pair of red eyes suddenly appeared in the woods ahead, and a dark shape flashed by.

"what!!!"

The great fairy was so frightened that she closed her eyes tightly and hugged Cirno tightly.

"No, don't be afraid, I'm here."

Cirno reached out to protect the Great Fairy, but her deathly pale face was undeniable.

"Who is it? Come out! I am the strongest Cirno!"

To bolster her courage, Cirno threw a block of ice into the bushes where the creature had appeared.

After a while, there was no movement from the bushes.

"Phew~" Cirno breathed a sigh of relief and turned to the Great Fairy, saying, "Look, that guy ran away in front of me, Cirno. Let's keep going."

But the Great Fairy's face suddenly turned deathly pale, her eyes staring straight behind Cirno, before she rolled her eyelids and fainted.

Cirno, sensing something was wrong, mechanically turned her head.

A pair of red-glowing eyes and a jet-black body stood before Cirno.

Chapter 73 The Fool in the Dark

"Oh, it's Rumia!"

Cirno, who bumped right into Rumia, reached out and touched her forehead where she had been hit.

"Ah! It hurts!"

As soon as she touched the large bump on her forehead, Cirno cried out in pain, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Cirno-chan, are you alright?"

The Great Fairy looked at Cirno with concern, and gently placed her hand on the large bump on Cirno's forehead. Small cross-shaped stars, emitting a soft green light, floated from the Great Fairy's hand and landed on Cirno's forehead.

"Are you feeling any better?" After doing all that, the Great Fairy asked Cirno with a worried look in her eyes.

"Hmm, I'm feeling better..." Cirno replied pitifully.

The pain from the large lump on my forehead has indeed gradually subsided.

"Oh, right, Rumia!"

The scene shifts abruptly, and Cirno turns her head, glaring fiercely at Rumia, who is sitting blankly on the ground, and says, "Don't you know it's dangerous to run around recklessly at night!"

"Look, this bump on my head is huge!" Cirno pointed to the large bump on her head for Rumia to see. "It hurts!"

As Cirno leaned her head over, the large bump on her forehead pressed against Rumia's face.

Rumia tilted her head, staring blankly at the large bag.

Poke~

Then he reached out and poked Cirno's big bag with his finger.

"what!!!!"

The moment the finger touched Cirno, she reacted as if she had been electrocuted, clutching her forehead and rolling on the ground.

"Aaaaaaah! It hurts!!!"

"Cirno-chan! Calm down! I'm coming to heal you right away!"

The great fairy standing to the side looked at Cirno, who was rolling around on the ground, somewhat at a loss.

"is that so--"

Rumia remained rooted to the spot, her finger poking out, and said blankly.

......

"Seriously! Don't just poke me like that!"

Cirno, clutching her head, strode to the front of the group.

The Great Fairy and Rumia followed behind her.

While resting, the Great Fairy also treated Rumia. During the treatment, she casually mentioned that she was going to have a big meal with Cirno.

Upon hearing the news that they were going to have a big meal, Rumia immediately raised her hand to say that she wanted to go too.

So, the Great Fairy, Cirno, and Rumia formed a three-person team and headed towards Akina Sawaya's house.

Moreover, with Rumia's help, the three of them were able to fly in the sky.

The reason we didn't fly in the sky before was because flying in the sky would be very noticeable, and we would be spotted and attacked by wild beasts that only come out at night.

So they chose to walk on the ground.

But now that we have Rumia, we don't have to worry about that anymore.

Once they had decided on the direction to go, Rumia enveloped them in a black sphere.

In this way, you can blend completely into the dark background and not be spotted by wild beasts, and you don't have to worry about not being able to see the road ahead and crashing into something while flying in the air.

"Well! I, Cirno, am a genius!"

And so Cirno, holding Rumia and the Great Fairy's hands, flew towards the human village from inside the dark sphere.

And so, under the bright moonlight, the trio of fairies, encased in a black sphere, flew straight ahead above the forest.

......

"What should we do with all this food..."

Akina Ze also swallowed what was in his mouth with difficulty.

He couldn't eat anymore; he felt like his stomach was going to burst if he ate any more.

Although Akina Zeya's appetite has been increasing day by day ever since he started practicing that certain skill.

But there's a limit to that. He's not really a Saiyan, and after forcibly stuffing a few plates into his mouth, he really reached his limit.

Nikua was already stuffed from eating, rubbing her bulging belly with one hand as she sprawled on the chair like a salted fish.

"Ugh... am I just going to throw all this food away after all this time and effort...?"

Akina Ze also struggled to raise his arm, picked up a piece of pastry with a fork, and tried to force it into his mouth.

But the moment I smelled the sweet aroma coming from the fork, a feeling of nausea welled up inside me.

uh~

With no other option, Akina Ze put down his fork, looking reluctantly at the dishes still on the table that he had only eaten a few bites of.

Oh right! Come to think of it, why did I cook so many dishes? I'm such an idiot!

Based on a momentary feeling, I irrationally prepared a meal that was far more than enough for two people.

He really wanted to punch himself in the face when he was excitedly cooking in the kitchen earlier.

Now, all the dishes made with the high-quality vegetables that I've been storing for so long will probably have to be thrown away.

As a farmer, nothing is more heartbreaking than wasting food, especially food you grew yourself.

Well... there's nothing we can do about it.

Akina Ze, who was sitting in the chair, stood up shakily with his large pregnant belly sticking out.

He plans to select a few dishes that have barely been touched and preserve them.

Other dishes that are not suitable for preservation have to be thrown away.

Akina Sawa also reached out, picked up a plate, and intended to pour the food inside into the trash can that had been prepared nearby.

Boom!

Just then! A pitch-black ball crashed through the ceiling of Akina Sawaya's house, slanted in, and hit the stone fireplace before coming to a stop.

The cool moonlight shone in through the large opening in the roof.

The light shone directly on Akina Zeya, who was staring dumbfounded at the huge gash on his head while holding a plate.

Nikua, sitting in a chair, noticed someone had arrived and fluttered her wings, trying to hide, but...

There was absolutely no sign of it taking off!

She sat firmly in the chair, along with her slightly protruding belly.

"It hurts!"

Cirno, who had been clinging to Daiyousei and Rumia, rubbed her head and wobbled to her feet. After looking around, she exclaimed with delight, "Huh? We're here!"

Wow! It's a feast!

Then, Cirno immediately noticed the dishes on the table that seemed to be shimmering with light, drawing her in.

"what!"

Cirno stepped on the Great Fairy's belly, rushed to the table, grabbed a golden-brown roasted chicken leg, and stuffed it into her mouth.

Behind them, the great demon rolled its eyes back, as if a wandering spirit was about to be spat out of its mouth.

"Ah~"

Just then, Rumia also got up from the ground, stepped on the Great Fairy, and pounced on the food.

This time, the thing that seemed like a wandering ghost also withered and collapsed, returning to the great fairy's mouth, where it was sucked back in.

Cirno and Rumia, the two fairies, were completely captivated by the food, stuffing it into their mouths and ignoring their surroundings.

So much so that they didn't even notice a pair of large, veiny hands reaching out from behind them.

Chapter Seventy-Four: The Silent Moon

Cirno and Rumia, who were scrambling to stuff food into their mouths, suddenly felt a hand pressing down on their heads.

At the same time, a chilling aura emanated from between them.

"Hey, aren't you two going to give me an explanation?"

A voice like that of a demon from hell suddenly rang in their ears.

Cirno, who had been captivated by the seemingly shimmering dish, suddenly awoke with a start.

The delicious food in front of me suddenly seemed to turn into a last meal before my execution.

Feeling the power coming from above her head, Cirno opened her mouth but couldn't utter a single word.

The eerie aura behind her intensified, causing Cirno to suddenly feel a cold sweat break out on her back.

If we don't do something soon, my butt will definitely get a beating!

"Hahahaha!" Facing a desperate situation, Cirno covered her nose and forced a laugh. "These...the dishes are quite good, worthy of...worthy of praise."

"Hahaha, hahaha, ha..." Cirno's forced laughter grew softer and softer until it was completely inaudible.

"Um!?"

Behind her, Akina Zeya's aura suddenly intensified, and Cirno could feel the grip on her head tightening.

What to do? Beg for mercy? No way! I'm the strongest in Gensokyo! How can I submit to a mere human!?

Cirno's face showed a look of unwillingness, and her body began to exude a strong aura.
