I'm having fun in Tokyo

With her childlike appearance, where does she get any charm?

"By the way, when are you planning to go to Kyoto?" Asaka asked.

“We, the Fujiwara family, have prepared a private jet for you. You can take the private jet whenever you want to go.”

"A private jet?" Morikawa Yu was slightly taken aback.

"Should I fly there?"

"Otherwise what?" Asaka frowned. "You're not planning to ride your mount there, are you?"

"Although this distance is nothing, if you do this, you'll lose points in the eyes of us monsters."

“Your riding her normally is already a way to strengthen your relationship, but taking her on long journeys is going too far.”

"No."

Morikawa Yu shook her head.

He certainly wasn't planning to ride a thousand cranes there.

He also felt sorry for Chizuru; how could he let her take him on such a long journey?

He was just a little emotional, never expecting that he would one day be able to sit on a private jet.

I've never enjoyed this kind of treatment before; the difference is truly huge.

"Human, when are you leaving? Tell me." Asaka urged him again.

"I'm not in a hurry, why are you?" Morikawa Yu shook her head.

Asaka narrowed her eyes: "Human, are you insulting me?"

“No.” Morikawa Yu shook her head again.

"I just want to wait a couple of days before I talk about it."

"Two more days?" Asaka frowned.

She herself wasn't in a hurry, but after hearing that the situation in Kyoto was becoming increasingly dangerous, she had no desire to stay in Tokyo any longer.

"If you think it's too late, you can leave earlier."

Morikawa Yu smiled.

Anyway, there's nothing much going on in Tokyo right now, so there's no harm in going sooner.

He used the imperial seal to contact Yoshiko.

Ryoko is in Kyoto now. Just contact her yourself, and it will be convenient for you to go there.

Soon, Ryoko's voice came over.

"What's wrong, Morikawa?"

"Ryoko, what's the situation in Kyoto right now? I'd like to go to Kyoto and take a look," Morikawa Yu asked.

Ryoko chuckled upon hearing this: "It's fine here in Kyoto. Today is another peaceful day."

A peaceful day?

Morikawa Yu blinked.

Is the "peace" she talks about the same kind of "peace" that I think of?

Is Kyoto constantly exploding now, with Heroic Spirits running rampant, and strange people liking to stand on streetlights and wander around?

He subconsciously thought of a series of anime called FEETS that he had watched in his previous life. The main setting, Fuyuki City, was chaotic every day, with explosions caused by battles between Heroic Spirits, which were covered up as "gas leaks".

Over time, people often joked, "It's another peaceful day in Fuyuki City."

He thought about it, but then felt it was unlikely, and shook his head.

On the other hand, Ryoko had no idea what Morikawa Yu was thinking.

She continued speaking, then suddenly changed her tone.

"Morikawa, Mitsuko and I were just talking about you when you contacted me. What a coincidence."

When are you planning to come?

"Mizuko is really looking forward to you..."

Ryoko's voice trailed off, then reappeared a few seconds later, her voice full of laughter.

"Someone seems shy, so I won't talk about her."

"When are you planning to come over, Morikawa? I can arrange for the Fujiwara family to look after you, or you can come to Fushimi Inari Shrine by yourself."

"Mizuko and I are both at the shrine, we can pick you up anytime."

Morikawa Yu thought for a moment.

"Tomorrow, I'll go there tomorrow morning."

Although there's nothing much to do in Tokyo, it's still a good idea to make some arrangements before leaving.

“Okay.” Ryoko smiled gently. “Also, Morikawa, could you go to the shrine today and deliver something back for me?”

"Yes, Ryoko." Morikawa Yu responded.

Although I don't know what Ryoko is going to give, going to the shrine won't take much time, and I can also visit Nanami.

As Morikawa Yu pondered this, he soon sensed a fluctuation of power emanating from the Goshuin-cho (Imperial Vermilion Gate).

He focused his mind on it and saw a ray of light appear in his Imperial Seal Tent space.

At the center of the light was a bow. The bow was of a very ordinary design, but it was engraved with many special patterns and radiated a soft glow.

Ryoko's figure slowly coalesced in the space.

She pushed the bow towards him, smiled slightly at him, and then disappeared from his sight.

Morikawa Yu came back to his senses and looked at Asaka.

"Let's leave tomorrow morning, I still have some things to take care of."

"Also, would you like to come to the shrine with me?"

"Ryoko wants me to send something over."

"shrine?"

Asaka frowned, then nodded.

"Of course I'm going, I want to see my little Shiori."

After the battle with the Inari God's consciousness clone, she entrusted Fujiwara Shiori to the shrine maidens.

The shrine has been closed these past few days, and we don't know how she is doing.

......

Half an hour later, Morikawa Yu and Asaka arrived at the shrine.

To his surprise, waiting outside the shrine was a guy who looked somewhat familiar—none other than Fujiwara Keisuke, whom he had met at the hospital before.

"Hello, Mr. Morikawa."

Fujiwara Keisuke leaned slightly toward him, somewhat reserved but still maintaining his composure.

For some reason, Morikawa Yu felt that the other party was much more carefree than last time, like someone who had too many dark histories and that many people knew about them, so they gave up on themselves and thought, "Whatever you want, do whatever you want."

What exactly did this guy go through?

Why does it suddenly feel like he's become a completely different person?

He was a little curious, but he managed to suppress his curiosity.

"Mr. Fujiwara, is there anything I can help you with?"

“That’s right, Mr. Morikawa,” Fujiwara Keisuke said immediately. “Lord Iegami told me that you were going to Kyoto and asked me to prepare a private jet.”

"If you don't mind, once you arrive in Kyoto on your private jet, the Fujiwara family can provide you with everything you need in Kyoto."

Morikawa Yu listened and shook his head.

"No need, I'll go find Ryoko and live with her. You don't need to take care of me."

"Eh? Living with Princess Ryoko?"

"Really? Princess Ryoko, could it be...?"

Fujiwara Keisuke was stunned, his eyes wide with astonishment, as if he had overheard some incredible secret.

He looked at Morikawa Yu with a strange gaze, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated, and there seemed to be a hint of envy in his eyes.

Morikawa Yuya immediately realized that there was a problem with what he said.

He tried to explain, but Fujiwara Keisuke quickly shook his head and stepped back, looking as if he was afraid of being killed to silence him.

Asaka stood to the side and snorted.

"Human, you've really gone too far, not even sparing Lady Ryoko."

"Although she admires you very much, and is a gentle and beautiful woman, and a goddess in many people's hearts, she is old enough to be your great-grandmother."

"Or rather, are you into older men?"

Morikawa Yu glanced at her.

Asaka crossed her arms and looked directly at him.

Her behavior clearly showed that she was unhappy with him teasing her at the dojo and trying to lure Nishino away.

Morikawa Yu shook her head, but had no intention of arguing with her.

"Mr. Morikawa, there's one more thing I'd like to ask of you." Fujiwara Keisuke hesitated for a moment, then leaned closer and looked at him carefully as he spoke.

“My brother’s child is still in this shrine. My brother is very worried about her and wants me to take her back with him.”

Morikawa Yu nodded.

It's nothing. Fujiwara Keisuke is Fujiwara Shiori's uncle, so it's only natural that he would worry about her.

He turned and walked towards the shrine's approach, waving to Asaka and Fujiwara Keisuke.

Keisuke Fujiwara immediately followed, while Asaka strolled leisurely behind.

Ignoring her, Morikawa Yu continued walking uphill.

But for some reason, he suddenly heard faint music in his ear.

It sounded like a pipa, or a shamisen, with subtle drumbeats mixed in.

Each time the drumbeat sounds, it's like it's striking right next to your ear; the heavy sound can even cause tinnitus.

He frowned, confirming that it wasn't his imagination.

The further up the approach to the sanctuary, the louder and more chaotic the music became, to the point of being noisy.

But amidst this noise, there is also a unique tranquility.

The feeling was so awkward that it gave him a sense of unreal disorientation, as if everything in front of him was swaying.

He looked up at the torii gate of the shrine and noticed that the shimenawa (sacred rope) on it was also swaying slightly.

Something happened at the shrine?

He subconsciously quickened his pace, but suddenly heard the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground behind him, along with a muffled groan.

The muffled groan came from Asaka. She covered her forehead, and nine cat tails appeared behind her. Her body was wrapped in black light, as if she was desperately resisting something and could hardly move forward.

Between her and Morikawa Yu, Fujiwara Keisuke collapsed beside the approach to the temple.

His eyes were closed, his arms were outstretched limply, and he had lost all feeling in them.

Morikawa Yu suddenly increased her speed.

He strode forward, almost instantly crossing the remaining approach, passing through the torii gate, and heading straight for the worship hall.
