"you...."

"Alright, instead of such trivial matters, let's talk about something serious. What are you doing following me? Are you sexually frustrated?"

Makoto waved his hand, interrupting Lina before she could finish her curse.

However, Lina had indeed been following him all this way.

They've been following me ever since I left the classroom, and their tracking skills are as bad as ever, just like back at the shrine.

It's hard not to find out.

You're the one who's sexually frustrated!

Lina shouted a curse, then whispered something in her ear:

"And it doesn't matter where it is... Here, take this."

She pulled a beautifully packaged gift box from her person and shoved it into his arms; it still retained the warmth of the young girl and her unique fragrance.

"Oh? I didn't expect you to give me chocolates."

"I'm not sure," Zhenxun teased, and then opened the packaging in front of her.

"Is this considered a duty chocolate, or a personal favorite chocolate?"

"Of course it's out of obligation. Who would give you chocolates made with their heart..."

Lina frowned and turned her head away unhappily.

"Geeri ah... If it's about duty, then I might as well weigh those two lumps of fat on your chest again. I prefer them to chocolate, and you know perfectly well that our bodies are more compatible."

Hearing his words, Lina's face flushed red instantly, and she shouted indignantly:

"Damn it, you really do have that kind of thing on your mind all the time...?"

She had just turned her head when she saw Mahiro holding the gift box she had given her, popping the chocolates inside into his mouth one by one.

"You...you just ate it like that?"

Lina's voice trembled, as if she could hardly believe it.

"Yes, isn't chocolate meant to be eaten? But you must have made this yourself, right? The texture is a little off, but the taste is good, especially the whipped cream inside, I really like it."

"...Aren't you afraid I'll poison you?"

Although her mission to hunt vampires has been completed, her investigation of Yotsuba Mahiro and her assassination missions can still continue.

She had mentioned this to Mahiro earlier.

But now, he has eaten the food he gave him without any hesitation.

She was fully prepared for the chocolate to be thrown away.

Is this guy an idiot?!

"Poisoning me? I don't think someone as proud as Lina would do that, and if you really wanted to poison me to death, would you really be willing to do it?"

"Hmph, I'd better poison you to death as soon as possible, you bastard!"

As Lina turned around, she took a deep breath to calm herself down.

"I'm going back!"

"Hey, wait a minute, I haven't returned the gift yet!"

"No need! Keep it for yourself!"

Lina refused to turn around, but the next second she suddenly felt a gust of wind coming from behind her.

She instinctively turned around and reached out toward the sound of the wind, and an item landed right in her hand.

"Bracelet?"

A silver bracelet, inlaid with sky-blue crystals.

only....

"This crystal actually contains magical formulas?! Could it be a sacred relic?!"

"uh-huh."

Zhenxun snorted, "Consider it as something to save your life. If you accidentally encounter a monster as strong as me again during your next mission, the spells inside can at least save your life."

"...How could the whole world be full of terrifying monsters like you?"

Lina pursed her lips and muttered a complaint under her breath.

But her gaze never left the bracelet in her hand.

"Oh, Masami-kun, do you have some free time now? I'd like to borrow a little of your time."

at dusk.

Mayumi pretended to bump into him by chance and, as always, extended an invitation to him with a beaming smile.

And naturally, he had no reason to refuse.

However, the location arranged was a corner of the school's coffee shop, an area with several simple meeting rooms enclosed by partitions.

However, even through the partition, you can still smell the rich aroma of coffee in the air.

Mayumi gestured for him to "sit down, sit down," and then sat down in the seat directly opposite him.

"Here, this is for you."

As soon as Mahiro sat down, Mayumi handed him a box.

Although it's not very big, it's surprisingly heavy, at least five times heavier than a chocolate bar of the same size.

Not only that, but a strange smell was also emanating from the box.

coffee?

Although the air here is filled with the rich aroma of coffee beans, it is still possible to distinguish them.

"Senior, what's wrong with you...?"

"Hmm~ Of course, it's my favorite chocolate."

"...Although I'm very happy to receive it, senior, are you sure this is chocolate? And not something else?"

He almost said the word "coffee".

"Of course, I made this myself."

Upon hearing this, Mahiro understood the truth of the matter.

It's normal for it to taste like coffee, after all, he knows very well that Mayumi-senpai can't cook.

"Hey, give it a try."

"...Let me ask you this first, wouldn't you call this murder of your husband?"

"how could be?"

Mayumi tilted her head and gave a mischievous smile. "I just made chocolate especially for you, Mahiro-kun, and wanted to hear your thoughts."

"Tsk..."

There's no escaping it now.

With a strange feeling in his heart, Makoto opened the packaging box with trembling hands.

Inside, rows of neatly arranged dark chocolates were stacked.

It looks perfectly normal in both shape and texture, except for the overwhelming smell of coffee and dark chocolate.

As if being tortured, Mahiro picked up a piece of chocolate, put it in his mouth, and chewed it.

"Hmm~ It tastes pretty good!"

Shinji's face lit up with joy after he ate it.

His reaction was completely beyond Mayumi's expectations.

"Eh? Really?!"

She clearly used 95% pure dark chocolate, and after melting it, she added almost half a can of instant coffee powder. She didn't add a single drop of water or a single grain of sugar during the entire process.

Unconvinced, Mayumi picked up a piece and, under Mahiro's watchful gaze, put it in her mouth.

"Ugh~~~~ It's so bitter!"

Mayumi's delicate features suddenly squeezed together.

"How could you do this, Shinsuke, you actually lied to me!"

"Haha! This is called reaping what you sow~"

I really enjoyed the laugh.

When I first ate it, the taste was indescribable. The bitterness of the coffee itself, combined with the bitterness of the dark chocolate, almost multiplied the bitterness several times over, not to mention the burnt taste.

The fact that he can still laugh shows that his facial expression management is at a very high level.

However, Mayumi was very unconvinced and picked up another one and put it in her mouth.

Then she got up from her seat, plopped down on his lap, wrapped her arms around his neck, gave him a kiss, and forced the chocolate into his mouth.

As the bitter taste gradually spread in my mouth, it was also accompanied by a touch of girlish sweetness.

After a long while, Mayumi finally released him, her face slightly flushed, and glared at him, saying:

"This is your punishment for being unfaithful!"

"Yes, I accept the punishment."

As he spoke, he put one arm around Mayumi's slender waist, pressed her delicate body against his, and kissed her again.

This time, Mayumi gradually became immersed in that slightly bittersweet feeling.

But I felt a cool touch on my neck.

Click.

The sudden sound startled Mayumi awake. After their lips parted, she discovered a necklace around her neck.

It's a pendant.

It is inlaid with emerald green gemstones, and the reflections inside the gemstones seem to flow slowly like the breath of life.

"This is....?"

"This is for you, do you like it?"

"Thank you."

Mayumi clutched the pendant on her chest, then took two more chocolates from the box and put them in her mouth, offering them to her cherry lips once more.

The two kissed again.

Hmm, this taste...it really is bitter.

Chapter 107 The Inhumanity of Kitayama Shizuku

It has become weaker.

It did not originally belong to this world, nor did it come to this world voluntarily.

It is naturally attracted to strong spiritual energy fluctuations.

Ecstasy, sorrow, hatred, and desire. Through the spiritual fluctuations of longing, which can be renamed supplication, "it" crosses the "wall" that sways only for a moment, and is dragged from the intangible world to the tangible world.

The impact of passing through the wall caused "it" to split into twelve parts, which then resided in the bodies of the humans who attracted "it".

It must continuously absorb spiritual particles to maintain its existence.

Because it slowly releases spiritual particles when it exists.

However, in this "tangible" world, "it" cannot absorb spiritual particles on its own. It must merge with a tangible object that can collect spiritual particles in order to replenish its spiritual particles.

By repeatedly using power in a state of only having a subject, "it" loses the large amount of spiritual particles that it has stored up since coming to the "tangible world".

Not only that, it was also swept away by the high-pressure quantum flow, and the parts that invaded the material dimension were greatly reduced and lost, and at that time it almost lost all its quantum particles.
