[Are you possessed by Miss Mei now? ]

"That's right!"

Mei Raiden laughed in the tone and voice of Mordred.

"Although Mei is in control, the possession time cannot be very long, and I cannot fully exert my power, but apart from these shortcomings it is still quite convenient. Basically, I will possess Mei for a period of time every day, use Mei's body to eat something, or play around for a while."

"Otherwise, it would be really boring and uncomfortable to keep being in that ghost-like state!"

[Raiden Mei] said as she sat down beside the flower bed, opened a box of takoyaki and started eating: "Mmm~~~ Delicious! Father, do you want to try some too? I'll feed you!"

[Forget about it. Don't abuse our habits and ways of getting along during the period of possession. It's not good for Miss Mei. Besides, I can't eat in my current state.]

"Eh?"

[My current body is just a projection. Although it has a certain degree of entity, it is just a puppet, different from you. So you can eat slowly by yourself. ]

"How can this be......"

Taking Natsukawa Tiger from Bronya's shoulder, [Raiden Mei] looked at her father in the palm of her hand and said, "I want to have a feeding play with you after a long time. After all, you may not be seen once in hundreds of years. The last time I saw you was more than ten years ago."

[So, you are using Miss Mei's body now, so please restrain yourself. ]

"What does it matter? It's my turn now anyway!"

[Raiden Mei] directly put the little Natsukawa Tiger in front of her and rubbed it a few times: "Little father is also very cute! If the queen mother and the others saw it, there would be a bloody storm in the family again. It's better for me to have him all to myself now!"

[You~~~Forget it, I'll do as you say this once, but don't go too far, and try not to have any intimate physical contact. ]

"Okay, okay~~~I know, Father!"

After getting the permission, Raiden Mei jumped for joy and then put Natsukawa Tiger on her head: "Then father, please sit here. It's just right to stand high and see far. The Kagura dance will start soon. Father, you have to watch it carefully."

[Hmm——Bronya, you come and watch too.]

"..."

With a complicated look on her face, she came to sit next to Raiden Mei and glanced at Natsukawa Tora who was sitting on her head. He usually sat on her shoulders, and although he had done so before, he would quickly change his position with unreasonable excuses such as "this would hinder Bronya's growth".

Now I accept it very quickly.

But this also shows that Tora Natsukawa and the person named Mordred who is now inside Mei Raiden's body have a really good relationship - Bronya totally doesn't believe that Tora Natsukawa and Mordred are just father and daughter, he doesn't look like a man with children.

And Bronya had just sat down...

“Oh oh oh~~~~”

There was a sudden commotion from the crowd in the Kagura dance audience not far away, and then a melodious music sounded from the Kagura stage.

“It’s starting.”

【yes】

"Father and this little one named Bronya, please watch carefully. I can guarantee that you will be surprised."

【oh? 】

After hearing what Raiden Mei said, Natsukawa Tora was also aroused a little curiosity, and Bronya silently turned her phone to video mode and aimed it at the stage.

Then——

"call----"

On the Kagura stage, a fragrant breeze suddenly blew gently.

Countless cherry blossoms then fell from the sky, as if cherry blossom rain was falling from the sky. The gorgeous cherry blossoms flying all over the sky suddenly dyed the entire sky into a slightly deep pink!

"Oh oh oh oh!"

The crowd suddenly burst into cheers, as if they were all amazed by the sudden cherry blossom rain.

The cherry blossom season is March and April, and the flowering period is extremely short, but now is the beginning of summer. It is impossible to have such a magnificent sight of flying cherry blossoms at this time!

Xiachuanhu and Bronya couldn't help but widen their eyes slightly.

At the same time, in the midst of the dancing cherry blossoms, under the gaze of everyone, a white fox with crimson fur appeared silently in the rain of flowers. The cherry blossoms in the sky seemed to become a flower bridge under the feet of the white fox, and also seemed to become a flower dress draped over her body, and as she moved, a more gorgeous flower dance was rolled up in the air!

The cheers from the crowd gradually died down.

Everyone was so surprised and shocked by the incredible scene before them that they couldn't utter a word. Even Xia Chuanhu felt a long-lost surprise at this moment.

“Da, da, da…”

Crisp footsteps suddenly sounded, and the cherry blossoms and white fox dancing in the air seemed to have received a call. They slowly descended to the ground accompanied by the rhythmic footsteps, eventually forming a sea of ​​flowers and a cherry blossom tree shaped like a white fox in full bloom.

And under the cherry tree——

"clatter!"

Taking the last step, she arrived right in the center of the stage. The cherry-haired girl, wearing a gorgeous dress that made her look like a shrine maiden, a dancer, or even a little like Shiromuku, raised the Kagura bell in her hand and shook it gently.

"Dingling bell~~~"

The pleasant ringtone immediately called everyone's attention back, and then all of them were focused on the girl.

The girl opened her cherry lips and said, "Dear travelers who have come from afar, and all the residents of Changkong City, I am sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time. I am the chief priest of Yae Shrine, the son of the Goddess of Scarlet Fox, and my name is [Yae Sakura]."

"Next, I will present the Kagura of Yae Shrine to the Scarlet Fox God and all of you."

"May Changkong City be full of vitality and prosperity under the protection of the Scarlet Fox God this summer."

Ding-ling~~~~!

The Kagura bell rang again.

The sound of the Kagura dance became louder and louder.

As hundreds and thousands of people looked on, the priestess of the Scarlet Fox God and the chief priest of the Yae Shrine began this year's Kagura.

And from this moment until the end of the Kagura dance, Natsukawa Tora never took his eyes off the stage, as if he wanted to engrave the dance of the Son of God deeply in his eyes.

23. July th

"Bronya, table three's set menu B is ready~~~You can go and rest after that."

"Bronya knows."

Inside the coffee shop where the coffee team is based.

After delivering the set meal ordered by the guests according to Lin's request, Bronya returned to the kitchen.

Today is the fifteenth day since she arrived at this front-line outpost.

The temple fair at Yae Shrine was held two weeks ago.

Compared to that night, Bronya's life in the past half month can only be described as dull.

She wakes up at 7:30 every morning in the guest room on the second floor, washes and dresses herself, and starts running the coffee shop with the coffee team members. Although there were times before when there were no customers for the entire day, after the temple fair at Yae Shrine ended, the coffee shop returned to what Lily and the others called "usual customer flow" the next day.

After that, basically the whole day was spent busying around the store. Since Bronya was only a temporary trainee Valkyrie, Lin and the others didn't assign her too much work, and she had a fifteen-minute break each in the morning and afternoon. Bronya would only take her shift if Lin and the others had to go out.

As for the reason why Lin and the others went out, it was naturally to deal with Honkai beasts - but there were only six or seven times, and more often they went out to deliver food or deal with some minor problems. Although Changkong City is a place where Honkai events frequently occur, it is not the case that Honkai events occur every day, and the frequency is about once every two or three days.

Therefore, in general, Bronya's internship life was actually quite leisurely. She was so free that she arranged some independent training for herself every night and increased the amount of training.

However, there are some problems.

"Is it the same today?"

Sitting down in the kitchen, Bronya sighed slightly when she didn't hear the familiar voice.

Xiachuanhu hasn't spoken to her for two weeks.

Since the Kagura dance at Yae Shrine, Natsukawa Tora has been silent for some reason, and has remained silent until today. And apart from saying "I have something to deal with in the next two days, don't talk to me for now" after the temple fair, Bronya has not heard him speak again.

Even after that, Xiachuanhu never appeared again.

This was somewhat inconsistent with Bronya's impression of Natsukawa Tora. He usually said that he had nothing to do, but he was so quiet during this period of time, as if he had never appeared.

If Bronya didn't have clear memories of living with Natsukawa Tora, she would have wondered if her experience of living with Natsukawa Tora so far was just an illusion.

(What on earth did my brother do?)

Bronya took out a bottle of sports food from the refrigerator in the kitchen and drank it while thinking.

In her impression, Natsukawa Tora always looks like he is at ease. Except for the recent force majeure due to the limited range of activities, Bronya has never seen Natsukawa Tora in trouble. And the fact that he could have been silent and disappeared for such a long time... He couldn't have been sleeping all the time, right?

However, the disappearance of Natsukawa Tiger did not cause any inconvenience to Bronya. It was rather good that there was one less person who put pressure on her and distracted her during her training.

Other than that, everything was fine.

"Dingling bell~~~~"

The bell at the door of the coffee shop rang, and it seemed that another customer had arrived.

"Welcome~~~Ah! Miss Mei, you are here today too!"

Bronya could hear Lily's welcome even in the kitchen, and when she heard the name she said, she consciously ended her rest time and walked out of the kitchen.

"Bronya, there's a customer who wants your help - ah, here you go, you're quite proactive~~~"

Lily, who was about to call Bronya out, turned around and saw Bronya coming out. She immediately smiled and pushed her to a dining table: "Then I'll leave it to you, Bronya, please entertain me well."

"Bronya knows."

After watching Lily leave, Bronya turned her gaze to the person opposite her: "Sister Mei is here today too?"

"Well, your store is right on my way to and from school, so I can stop by and sit there every day."

Mei Raiden, who was wearing a school uniform, smiled.

Bronya checked the uniform that Mei Raiden was wearing, and it was the uniform of Chiba Academy, a famous aristocratic girls' school in Changkong City. Speaking of Chiba Academy, it was also a famous school in Changkong City. Due to its high tuition and excellent teaching environment, all the students who could go there were real young ladies, and the whole school was also regarded as a garden for aristocratic girls.

To put it bluntly, it is an academy that is very suitable for Mei Raiden's identity. After all, her father is one of the executives of Anti-Entropy, and he has a behemoth like ME Club under his command. The Raiden family itself is a famous family with hundreds of years of history. Mei Raiden has always been the eldest lady among the ladies, and even in Senba Academy, she has the most honorable status.

Such a young lady comes to such an ordinary coffee shop every day to consume, and every time she specifies Bronya to serve her... Lin reported this suspicious behavior directly to Theresa when Mei Raiden came to patronize for the first time.

After receiving Theresa's reply "Don't worry, it's okay", Lin officially handed over the job of receiving Raiden Mei to Bronya - mainly because she was really rich. Every time she came to the store, she ordered the most expensive ones, and every time she came, she would show off several snacks. The consumption of one person was equivalent to that of more than a dozen people.

Faced with such a rich person, Lin of course had to treat him well as the goddess of wealth.

"So Mei-sister, what would you like to order today?"

"Same old as always, let's start with an [everything included] parfait..."

【——Two servings! 】

A voice that only Bronya and Raiden Mei could hear rang out.

Mordred emerged from Raiden Mei's clothes and raised two fingers with a smile: [Two! I want one too!]

"Okay - Manager, Mei-sister's order, two servings of [Everything] parfaits."

"Okay, please wait~~~"

Lin smiled brightly - [It has everything] Parfait was the inspiration Lin got from a certain type of milk tea. To put it simply, it is to pile all the small ingredients that can be piled, such as taro balls, red beans, and coconut flakes, on the ice cream, and as much as possible. It is a pure calorie bomb and the most expensive item in the coffee shop.

Mei Raiden orders this every day when she comes.

Lin was extremely happy about this. Although this was the frontline base of the Far East Branch and received activity funds every month, the income from the coffee shop was also an important source of funds. She was really hoping that Mei Raiden would order a few more servings!

24. Raiden Mei's Request

"By the way, Bronya, can I ask you a question?"

Just as Lin was preparing the parfait, Mei Raiden asked again, "I recently heard from the customers and people around here that besides being a coffee shop, do you also take on some commissioned work? Like a Yorozuya?"

"Yes."

Bronya did not deny it, but admitted it straightforwardly.

After all, this is not something that needs to be concealed. This base has been established for some time. Due to Lin’s personal philosophy, most people nearby know that they can come here for help when they encounter troubles. Although it is not free, the problems will be solved beautifully every time, which is definitely value for money.

Bronya also went out to complete a commission in the past half month, but it was just a simple task of finding a cat.

The fact that Mei Raiden is asking this kind of question now means——

"Has Mei-sister run into any trouble that needs our help?"

"Well... I don't know if this is a problem, or maybe I'm just worrying too much." Raiden Mei looked a little worried, "A friend of mine hasn't come to school for a while. Although she did ask for leave before, she should have come to school the day before yesterday, but I didn't see her until now."

"Didn't Mei ask the teacher or the school?"

"I did ask, but the teacher couldn't explain the situation clearly. I found the phone number on the register, but no one answered when I called."
