"So you're new here, right!? Then you must be another monster!?"

Morikawa Yu had a headache.

He whispered a few words to Chizuru, then sent her back to the Imperial Vermilion Seal Tent before heading towards Shinjuku.

Xinjue looked at him with a worried expression, and didn't forget to put away the snacks next to her.

"Master, stealing food is wrong, especially since you brought her home..."

"Didn't you even consider Lady Hiizuki's feelings?"

Her expression suddenly turned extremely serious.

"Let me tell you, Lady Hisukatsuki used to be very tyrannical. Once, because a daimyo burned down the forest where she slept when he attacked another country, she destroyed that daimyo's country, allowing the enemy daimyo to benefit from it."

"The enemy daimyo who got the better deal coveted Lady Hitsuki's power and beauty and wanted to pursue her. Lady Hitsuki found it annoying and casually destroyed that enemy daimyo's country as well."

"Oh, and there's also our hometown, Sanlun Mountain..."

Hearing her words, Morikawa Yu was somewhat surprised and raised an eyebrow.

Was my wife always this ruthless?

No wonder Ryoko rushed over so quickly a few days ago when Hiiyue showed her the sealing domain and her true form, and even manifested a divine domain in the sky.

I guess she's afraid that Feiyue might do something.

In contrast, Ryoko was much more casual when she came to help catch Isshiki Heihachi today.

As he was thinking, he heard hurried footsteps coming from the entrance behind Xinjue.

Chapter 121 A Calm Tomorrow

"Mindful awareness!"

Feiyue's voice came from inside the entrance hall, her tone sharp.

Xin Jue's expression changed!

Without a second thought, she rushed straight towards Morikawa Yu, intending to hide behind him.

Without even thinking, Morikawa Yu kicked her, sending her flying towards the entrance.

Between a useless, sharp-tongued maid and his wife, of course the wife is more important!

Moreover, Xinjue just said that Feiyue is in danger.

In front of your wife, acting according to your heart is not considered cowardly!

Xinjue's body was kicked into the air and flew straight towards the entrance.

Before Fei Yue even appeared, a blood-red barrier was erected at the entrance, blocking Xin Jue's body.

From behind the entrance, a slender and graceful hand reached out and grasped Xinjue's neck.

"Xinjue, what nonsense are you talking about!?"

"I haven't done any of those things you're talking about, and I haven't destroyed any countries! I don't have a habit of indiscriminately killing civilians!"

As she spoke, she pulled Xinjue into the entryway, where a series of thumping sounds, like being banged on the head, could be heard.

Morikawa Yu glanced inside with concern.

Feiyue seems to have picked up the habit of tapping Xinjue's head from him.

This is not good.

When I tap my head, I'm holding back and hardly using any force.

Feiyue is a great demon among great demons. Even if she restrains her power, she can easily cause problems if her emotions fluctuate slightly.

He walked into the entryway and saw Xinjue Duck sitting on the floor, her pink hair loose.

She held her head in her hands, her eyes looking dead, muttering things like "Master doesn't want me anymore," "Lady Scarlet Moon is going to kill me," and "I'm doomed."

Feiyue stood in front of her, her fists clenched, a faint aura of blood emanating from her body.

Morikawa Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, nothing serious happened, and Fei Yue didn't go too far.

Feiyue also noticed the sound of him entering, and the blood aura around her dissipated.

Her ears twitched, her fluffy tail wagged twice, and she lowered her head.

Although he couldn't see Hiiyue's expression, Morikawa Yu was still somewhat moved.

My wife looks so cute when she's angry and embarrassed.

He suddenly had a bold idea, walked towards Feiyue, hugged her from behind, buried his face in her long silver hair, and took a deep breath.

"Wife~"

Feiyue's body immediately stiffened, becoming taut, and her clenched fists unconsciously loosened, leaving her somewhat at a loss.

Finally, noticing that Morikawa Yu's tone didn't sound like one of disgust or fear, she coughed lightly and turned her face away.

"Husband, don't listen to Xinjue's nonsense."

"I'm not that violent, I don't enjoy killing humans, and I've never done anything so cruel..."

Morikawa Yu smiled as he listened to her somewhat feeble explanation.

He knew, of course, that Hiigetsu wouldn't be such a tyrannical monster; otherwise, Ryoko wouldn't have felt comfortable leaving her in Tokyo, much less have formed a friendship with her.

When Shinjue spoke of the destruction of a country, he was probably referring to the daimyo, whose upper-middle-class nobles and lower-class samurai were all slaughtered by Hiyue.

This situation could also lead to the collapse of a country, but it's far less terrible than she described.

Moreover, her fear of him finding out these things shows how much she cares about her image in her own eyes.

So strong and beautiful, so lovely, and so caring towards his wife, staying by his side—what more could he ask for?

He wrapped his arms around Feiyue's waist, enjoying the wonderful feeling of being embraced by her warm body, and whispered, "Don't worry, my wife~"

"I believe you~"

Feiyue nodded, responded, and breathed a sigh of relief.

The two stayed close together, the atmosphere gentle.

Suddenly, there was a loud bang.

Morikawa Yu looked down and found that Shinjue had collapsed at her and Hiiyue's feet, forming a crooked "big" character.

Her eyes were filled with despair, as if she had no more attachment to this world.

"I've... burned out..."

"Master... Lady Scarlet Moon..."

Morikawa Yu couldn't help but sigh.

See? My wife and I are loving and harmonious; only the heart feels wounded in this world.

However, he only thought about it and wasn't that heartless.

Even if he were to disregard his feelings, he couldn't do it.

He released Feiyue, took her hand, bent down, picked up Xinjue, hoisted her onto his shoulder, and walked towards the living room.

My older sister just floated down from upstairs to the living room, arriving a little late.

She glanced at Xinjue in surprise, seemingly curious that Xinjue was still alive.

Morikawa Yu smiled, tossed Kokoro onto the sofa, and then ruffled her hair.

As if she had finally come back to life, she hugged Morikawa Yu's waist and began to sob softly in protest.

She was just trying to kindly remind her owner not to steal food, but she ended up getting hurt the most.

The master, who had just returned from sneaking a meal outside and brought a new yokai home, was completely unharmed, and even became closer to Lady Hiizuki...

Can this society ever be better?

Hell is empty; its master is on earth.

When will our Awakening Clan be able to stand up?

I'm so cold and shivering, sob sob~

×&%¥#@…… (Friendly greeting)

Feiyue stood to the side, frowning, somewhat dissatisfied.

My older sister was very happy.

She hadn't seen her home so lively in a long time; her eyes crinkled with laughter...

.......

night.

Asada Shrine, the residence of shrine maidens.

Yamano Nanami looked curiously at the simple and elegant three-story wooden building in front of her, just in time to see several shrine maidens walking out of it.

They were all dressed in white robes and scarlet hakama, and draped in crane-patterned chihaya-style kimonos.

Judging from their clothes alone, they should be official shrine maidens, responsible for managing the shrine's daily affairs.

Many people think that all shrine maidens wear the same clothes, like Kikyo from "Inuyasha," with a white top and a red hakama skirt.

But in fact, the clothing of shrine maidens is very particular. The more formal the occasion and the higher the rank of the shrine maiden, the more gorgeous her clothing.

For example, the outfit that Mitsuha wore when she danced the Kagura dance in "Your Name" was one of the formal shrine maiden outfits, just like the ones worn by shrine maidens today, except that they did not wear the zenten crown or carry the Kagura bell.

When Yamano Nanami looked over, they all looked at her in return and bowed to the shrine maiden Yoshiko beside her.

Ryoko smiled slightly and ruffled Yamano Nanami's hair.

"You can stay with these older women for now. They'll take care of you. I've already arranged for someone to re-register your household registration and identity. Do you want to go to school or stay at the shrine?"

Yamano Nanami stared at them blankly for a moment, looking at their serene and beautiful appearance, and then thought about what had happened before, and suddenly shook her head.

"Lady Ryoko, I want to stay at the shrine."

“I see…” Ryoko nodded.

"That's possible, but you can't neglect your studies. Learning more things will help you live a better life..."

As she spoke, she suddenly frowned.

A voice suddenly appeared in her ear.

"Are you there, Ryoko?"

The voice was very soft and gentle, with a touch of fragility, but if you listened carefully, you could also feel the authoritative authority of a superior.

Ryoko patted Yamano Nanami on the shoulder, telling her to go to the shrine maiden's residence first. She then summoned a shrine maiden, gave her some careful instructions, and then turned to walk back to the main hall.

She raised her hand to summon the Imperial Vermilion Seal Curtain and sighed.

"You stinky fox, speak up, what is it?"

Chapter 122 No, I refuse!

Ryoko was very familiar with the other party's identity.

Mitsuko, the head priest of Fushimi Inari Shrine, is the most powerful figure in the Kansai region. As early as the Age of Gods, he was a great yokai who was close to a god.

Moreover, unlike old acquaintances like Fei Yue who despise the mortal world, she loves new things. After the end of the Age of Gods, she even took over the power of Inari God, actively approached the mortal world, and became the god of mankind.

Over a thousand years of management, her influence has spread throughout the Kansai region.

Just a couple of days ago, she was thinking of bringing him and Morikawa together, paving the way for him to connect the entire Kanto region with the Kansai region.

It's a pity that Morikawa chose Hizuki.

"Oh, it's nothing."

The owner of the voice heard Liangzi's words and replied leisurely.

But before Liangzi could even relax, her tone suddenly changed, becoming somewhat resentful: "That's right, I want to confirm with you again, did Feiyue really steal me away?"
