Traveling through Gensokyo, but the system is Jujutsu Kaisen?

Countermeasures: Generally harmless. Although he seems a little cold and difficult to get along with, when you encounter danger, you can get help from him most of the time. He is a relatively easy person to get along with, but please don't provoke him at will.

Volume 3: Return to Fantasy: Chapter 160: The Eater, the Eater's Soul

After heading north out of the old hell, it was already noon.

He originally wanted to go to Renli to get some lunch, but unexpectedly he met Yiji on the way. He took her to sell the medicine at Aqiu in Kazuta, and helped Aqiu complete the Origin of Gensokyo.

Although it is not time for dinner yet, it is not suitable for lunch either.

In short, when Xiangbei and Watatsuki Irihime walked out of the Tsukuta family's mansion, there seemed to be fewer pedestrians on the street than at noon, and it seemed a bit deserted for a while.

"Thank you very much, Mr. Xiangbei."

Yiji walked out of the Tsukuta residence and bowed to Xiangbei: "If it weren't for your help, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to sell even a bottle of medicine until now. I really don't know how to repay you..."

"It's a small matter, don't worry about it." It's really no big deal to skip lunch. With Xiangbei's current physical condition, it's okay not to eat for a few days, but as a human being, he still has to maintain the habit of eating.

"But if you really want to give me something in return... I'm also hungry, so how about this, Princess Mianyue, you do me the honor of having a meal with me?"

Hearing Xiangbei's words, Mian Yue Yiji was slightly stunned.

Watatsuki Yorihime, as the Princess of the Moon, has a completely different personality from her sister Watatsuki Toyohime, who is innocent and naive. She is quite serious and even a little rigid. She doesn't know how to adapt. Just like the characters in the comics, she is not very familiar with some common sense things.

For example, there are times when she needs to observe people's expressions, times when she needs to read the atmosphere, times when the topic involves love... Most of the time, because of her overly straightforward personality, she will encounter some problems in these aspects, and it is only because Feng Ji has been watching her that no negative impact is caused.

However, during the two days she stayed at Eientei, Kaguya always tried to instill some... well, all kinds of bad things into her, so Yiji understood a little bit, more or less.

In some galgame games played with Kaguya, there seems to be a plot like this: the male character invites the female character to dinner together, but the real purpose is to enhance the relationship between them.

This scene made her feel very familiar...

No! Watatsuki Iji, Watatsuki Iji, have you been playing games with Kaguya too much these past few days and your brain has gone crazy? How could the scenes in the game happen in real life?

"Of course there's no problem with that."

Yiji's cheeks turned a pixel red.

"So where are we going? To be honest, this is my first time in this area, and I don't know where to find a good restaurant."

"Don't worry about that. I happen to know a restaurant that's delicious. Come with me."

The two walked side by side on the street. Due to the intimidation of a certain Hakurei shrine maiden, although non-human species such as monsters and fairies often appeared in the human world, they basically would not do anything, but people like Watatsuki Norihime would inevitably attract a lot of attention when walking on the street.

As the Princess of the Moon and the sister of the most oriental-looking Kaguya Houraisan, Watazuki Yorihime's appearance is naturally stunning, and the clothes she wears are obviously not human. In this way, it is certainly understandable that she is identified as a monster.

Feeling the curious, vigilant and slightly fearful gazes of the people around her, Mian Yue Yiji felt a little uncomfortable.

Unlike Feng Ji, she is not the kind of person who often appears in the public eye. She usually communicates with people at work. She has had the experience of being stared at by many people like this, but most of the time she was being stared at by Yuetu, and the meaning of their gazes was also quite different.

This made Mianyue Yiji a little upset, and her eyes unconsciously looked at Xiangbei on the side. The game content she played with Kaguya was also playing in her mind in a loop.

If, if, the other party really has such thoughts...how should I respond?

……

……

Well, I don’t know about other things, but Mr. Xiangbei definitely doesn’t have any thoughts in that regard.

Looking at the fifth plate placed next to Xiangbei, Mian Yue Yiji couldn't help but fall silent.

It seems you really are here to eat... Although it may be a bit rude, I still want to ask you, are you the reincarnation of a starving ghost?

Just as Mitsuki Yoshiki was thinking, the sixth empty plate was placed on the first five empty plates.

"Hurr... I haven't eaten human food in a long time. I really miss it."

Apparently, Xiangbei realized that his eating habits were a bit ferocious, so he tried to explain in order to maintain his image in Mianyue Yiji's mind.

"And a few days ago, I had a banquet with the ghosts from the Old Hell. After drinking some wine there, I slept for several days... By the way, what day is today?"

"Tuesday," replied Mianyue Yiji.

"I remember I went to Old Hell on Sunday... Hell, so I just slept through it for three days?!"

Even Xiangbei couldn't help but be shocked. The ghost clan's wine was so terrifying that it made a man with his physique fall asleep for three days. If that wine was given to ordinary people to drink, they would sleep for the rest of their lives!

"Mr. Xiangbei also went to meet the ghost tribe?" Yiji was a little curious: "Did something happen?"

"It's nothing, I just have a prop here that only the ghost clan knows about, so I went over to ask... In the end there was a fight and a banquet." Xiangbei picked up the tissue on the table and wiped his mouth.

"I see. No wonder Mr. Xiangbei, you just..." Yiji expressed her understanding.

"Well, I've almost finished eating, so it's time to go... Waiter, take the bill."

"Mr. Xiangbei, do you have anything else to do?"

"Ah, I need to go to the Scarlet Devil Mansion to find someone."

"I always feel busy... Is it that thing Master told you?"

"Yeah, I'm afraid I'll be even busier from now on... Anyway, thank you for the treat."

After finishing the meal, Xiangbei said goodbye to Mianyue Yiji.

Unexpectedly, he slept for three days straight. Xiangbei still remembered the time limit he had given Patchouli when he lent the Sky and Tyrant Generator, which was three days.

I'm not sure if Patchouli will use it... I think she will. After all, there are examples of Alice, Aigo, and Lilith, three people from the demon world. In order to improve her body, there is no reason for Patchouli not to use it.

I just don't know if she will lend it to Marisa.

Just as Xiangbei was thinking in his mind and arrived above the magic forest, he was keenly aware of a burst of magical fluctuations.

Marisa's magical aura?

Yes, as a hard worker in contrast to Reimu, Marisa also practices almost every day. Judging from her aura, it seems that she is practicing magic cannon?

There was no need to go to the Scarlet Devil Mansion so early. He was free anyway, and they hadn't seen each other for a while. Xiangbei planned to chat with Marisa.

The next moment, Xiangbei followed Marisa's breath and appeared in a corner far away from the magic forest. Marisa was indeed there. Looking at the bumpy ground near her, one could tell how destructive her magic practice was.

Just when Xiangbei was about to go down and say hello, an unexpected figure came into his sight.

Volume 3: Return to Fantasy: Chapter 161: Persecuting the Blonde Girl Again

One of the true protagonists of the Touhou Project series, the strongest primate magician, the harem king of Gensokyo, and a frequent persecutor of those who believe in the theory of longevity...

These are my titles and reputations, each one stronger than the last, each one higher than the last in status and public office.

My name is, Kirisame Marisa.

The strongest human magician in Gensokyo. Ever since I ran away from home to learn magic, my strength and the power of my magic cannons have continued to grow.

My power is so strong that only that Hakurei shrine maiden can compare with me...

Comparable? Humph, perhaps my current strength has far surpassed that Hakurei shrine maiden!

To ensure I always possess this invincible power, I will do whatever I deem "necessary," even if it means gorging myself on magic mushrooms to shorten my lifespan or practicing high-powered magic cannons regardless of danger. Yes, I, Marisa, am such a hard-working and down-to-earth person...

"You fucking horse... cough cough cough..."

Kirisame Marisa glanced at Xiangbei with a pained look on her face, and said with a headache: "Can you please stop narrating when I'm doing magic experiments! And what do you mean by a harem king? I'm a woman, okay? You're slandering me... cough cough cough..."

Marisa waved her hand to disperse the thick smoke stirred up by the magic cannon. Her originally fair and clean face was now covered with dust, but she didn't care and had no mood to wipe it off.

"Ah, just to liven up the atmosphere and do a Li Risheng imitation show. Don't take it seriously."

Xiangbei smiled and looked Marisa up and down as if he were looking at a rare commodity.

"What are you looking at? Have you never seen a beautiful girl before? Why are you here?" Marisa glared at Xiangbei unhappily, then reached out to wipe the dust off her face, revealing her fair skin.

Xiangbei didn't pay attention to Marisa's words. He just continued to look at Marisa. His blue eyes reflected Marisa's shadow. After a moment, he spoke.

"Nothing, I just felt some movement over there so I came over to check it out. Seeing it was you, I wanted to come over and chat... and also check if you were developing normally."

Marisa silently pointed the Bagua furnace at Xiangbei: "Are you being a hooligan?"

"Nothing." He raised his hands in surrender. "It's just that I gave Patchouli an interesting prop a few days ago, and I thought she would give it to you. But at the moment, your physical condition doesn't seem to have changed at all."

"Oh, you mean that one?" Marisa moved the Bagua furnace away, tapped her head, and said nonchalantly, "That magical item that can exchange magic power for physical fitness? Patchouli wanted me to use it once, but I refused."

"Rejected? Why?" Xiangbei was a little curious.

"Why? Isn't it obvious?"

Marisa reached out and tapped her barren chest. "All the magic power I have is the result of years of hard work and practice in the Magic Forest. If I use your magic tool, I'm afraid all the magic power I've cultivated over the years will be gone."

Marisa Kirisame is not like Patchouli and Alice, witches who have accumulated hundreds of years of experience and possess rich and huge reserves of magic power. As a witch who cannot even be considered a magician, she is simply too young.

She was so young that even using her magic power to exchange for the physical fitness of the Heaven and Tyrant Generator would probably be slightly insufficient.

Marisa is a little genius and a hard-working doer, but she is not a super genius like Reimu Hakurei. The reason she can fight against all kinds of monsters in Gensokyo is not because of her own strength, but because of the existence of the rules of the barrage game, and her use of various magic mushrooms as fuel, plus the mini Bagua furnace, an excellent magic prop.

"That's right." After the minor upgrade of his six eyes, what he could "see" became more detailed. After seeing the magic power in Marisa's body, Xiangbei stroked his chin and said, "Your magic power seems to be a little less. It's not enough. If you press it, not only will all the magic power disappear, but there may be other costs to pay."

"Right, so that item isn't very useful to me, and even if I had enough magic power, I wouldn't use it."

"I don't want to spend another ten years trying to use magic just to get a strong body... Time waits for no one."

Marisa murmured, holding the Bagua furnace in her arm, and took out a notebook with something written on it... Xiangbei leaned in closer and saw that it seemed to be the data of the magic cannon she had just used?

"It's quite powerful, but I can't control the yield, so I get hurt easily. But it's fine with a few adjustments. The downside is that it emits a poisonous cloud when released... But this mushroom seems to have a pretty good yield."

As she spoke, Marisa drew a few more lines on the notebook, not caring that Xiangbei was peeking at her openly from the side. Although most witches would never allow others to peek at their magical knowledge, it was nothing to Marisa. She even wished someone would peek at her magic notes more often, so that she would have a cannon buddy (a friend who could use magic cannon) in Gensokyo.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk."

Xiangbei stared at Marisa's hands. She had been wearing a pair of black gloves, but now they looked tattered as if they had been burned. The small hands that were once enough to make a certain office worker boki were now covered with burns.

But Marisa seemed to be used to it. After she finished recording, she picked up two strings of grilled mushrooms on the side and handed them to Xiangbei.

"These mushrooms are almost roasted. Would you like two?"

"Then I won't be polite."

Although Marisa's cooking skills are terrible, she is pretty good at making mushrooms.

The slightly evolved six eyes can no longer only see cursed energy, but can also observe some substances to a certain extent... such as poison.

The mushrooms that Marisa handed over were not poisonous. After all, she had been in the Magic Forest for so many years, and she could definitely tell the difference between poisonous and non-poisonous mushrooms.

But Marisa herself...tsk tsk tsk.

"Marisa, you know what." After taking a bite of the mushroom, the skin was roasted until slightly crispy, while the inside retained the original freshness of the mushroom, and there was also a unique fragrance. Even though Xiangbei had just finished his meal, he felt that it would be no problem to eat a few more strings of such mushrooms.

"Suppose you suddenly died one day, and your body was picked up by a man-eating monster. Even if that monster chose to eat grass, it would not choose to eat your body."

"What is this? Are you mocking me? Or telling another joke?" Marisa blew on the mushroom twice, took a small bite, and looked at Xiangbei with a frown.

"Because the poison in your body is so strong, even monsters can't stand it."

He finished a string of mushrooms in two or three bites, then threw the mushroom skewer aside and laughed.

"From my unprofessional medical perspective, Marisa, you have at most thirty years left... no, at your reckless pace, maybe twenty or so. That's probably the time. If you keep practicing magic like this, you'll probably report to Shiki even before the one from the Kazuta family."

Volume 3: Return to Fantasy: Chapter 162: Ciao~

Human beings have limits.

This is a consensus tacitly accepted by almost everyone in Gensokyo. With a weak body, their life span will be short, turning into a handful of dirt within a hundred years at most, and they do not have the innate magical powers that monsters can possess.

Although humans grow much faster than monsters, there are very few of them who possess natural talent, and even fewer who can rival monsters... Not to mention beings like Hakurei Miko, who can defeat monsters and gods. These beings are even rarer than the SSRs in the card drawing game.

Compared to most humans, Kirisame Marisa is still a talented one and can learn magic. If she spends her whole life honing her skills on the path of magic, she may become a true magician.

But that would still require a long time to hone, and if she practiced in the normal way of a cultivator, perhaps she would not be able to fight ordinary monsters until she reached middle age, let alone fight big monsters.

That's too slow, and according to the rules when Gensokyo was founded, humans were not allowed to become magicians.

In other words, if Marisa had continued her training in a normal way, she would probably have to be in her seventies or eighties before she could be as active in various anomalies and barrage battles as she is now... But by that time, it is still unclear whether Marisa could still maintain the same passion as now.

Marisa is able to possess such powerful strength now. Some of her talent and hard work are involved, but more of it is due to her disregard for her own safety and overdrawing on her life.

"Honestly, do you really need to overdraw your life in pursuit of power? I'm not denying your choice, but I'm unclear and want to understand your motives..."

Xiangbei looked at Marisa steadily. After all, as a friend, he didn't want to watch Marisa die so early.

"So you're asking me why I want to become stronger?" Marisa scratched her golden hair, which was covered in gray. "That sounds a bit like the lines in Xianglin's novel, da☆ze!"

"That's about right. After all, you're not one of those characters in novels whose entire family was slaughtered and who would risk everything for revenge, even their own lives... You still have a lot of life ahead of you, and there's more than one way to become stronger."
