Miss Player, please don't cast spells on me.

"Oh! It's just a fried egg, what's with this taste?"

Sakai Iori discovered that this fried egg was incredibly delicious, with just the right amount of saltiness and a unique flavor that stimulated her taste buds, completely neutralizing the eggy smell.

"Uh... just a little pepper will do?"

Kiyono Hai knew he was very skilled, but he had no intention of teaching Sakai Iori, because it was too much trouble.

"Add a little pepper. Young man, you wouldn't happen to be... a very good cook, would you?"

Sakai Iori had already realized this by then.

Although she imprisoned Shanor and could be a bride every night from now on.

But if we imprison this boy, it seems we can enjoy a feast every day from now on.

"Is it something I'm good at? If I weren't so unlucky, I'd probably be doing this kind of part-time work all the time."

The original owner's bad luck debuff had caused a lot of trouble for the restaurants where Qingye Hui worked.

"Young man, I have a few questions for you. Don't your parents mind that you're working a part-time job so early in the morning? You should still be a high school student, right? Don't you have to go to school?"

Kiyono Hai was at a loss for words when faced with a barrage of questions from Sakai Iori.

After swallowing the food in his mouth, Kiyono Hui could only manage to utter one last sentence.

"My parents are actually no longer alive."

"Oh? Sorry! I didn't mean to ask about something that upset you!"

"Don't worry about it, Iori-nee. I've long been used to this kind of life."

Qingye Hui truly didn't care whether the original owner's parents lived or died.

But the comforting smile on Kiyono Hai's face seemed like a forced smile to Sakai Iori.

What the heck... how come even this pitiful background looks so much like Xia Nuoer's!

And when asked about their sad moments, they act all tough, just like that.

The heartbreaking scars that inadvertently appeared on his neck were exactly the same as those on Shanor's neck.

Although Sakai Iori was thinking this, she also deduced Kiyono Hai's current situation.

First of all, learning is definitely out of the question. Looking at the camping gear on the back of the bicycle when Wild Ash arrived…

Now, Kiyono Ash should be living a nomadic life, wandering the world.

Sakai Iori, having figured this out, didn't hesitate any longer and casually asked Kiyono Hai a question.

"Young man, would you mind staying at my place? I have quite a few rooms, and I'm living here all by myself right now."

"It's like I'm hiring you as a nanny or something, you just need to make me breakfast and dinner every day, and then help me with the housework."

Although Iori Sakai spoke casually, she still sensed the wary gaze of Hai Kiyono.

What Kiyono Hai really wanted to say was... Ms. Sakai, don't you really realize that you are a beautiful woman?

Despite spending a short time together offline, Kiyono Hai sensed that Sakai Iori was a very free-spirited woman.

But she is indeed an absolute beauty, not only with a beautiful face but also with a figure that is almost too good.

To put it simply, she was about half a forehead taller than Kiyono Hai.

Kiyono Hai is currently about 1.74 meters tall, while Sakai Iori should be about 1.77 meters tall.

This is probably thanks to her long, fair legs as she sits on the tatami mat.

"Ms. Sakai, don't you mind? I'm a young man in my prime."

When Kiyono arrived, he could still see some stockings and underwear that Sakai Iori had scattered around the room.

What's there to mind? We've already slept together, why would we care about this?

Although Sakai Iori wanted to say that, she kept reminding herself that she couldn't treat the boy in front of her as a substitute for Xia Nuoer, and so on.

"Well... I do dislike some men, but I don't feel any aversion towards you. If you really can't hold it in, I... I might be able to find a way to help you resolve this?"

When Sakai Iori said this, although she wanted to appear dignified as an adult, her voice had actually changed a bit.

As expected, Sakai Iori still can't be as overpowered offline as she is in the game.

Kiyono didn't press for details about the specific solution, but there was no reason not to accept a place to stay that was being offered for free.

"Then I'll have to trouble you from now on, Iori-nee. By the way... if Iori-nee dares to do anything to me, I'll call the police, you know," Kiyono Hui said with a mischievous glint in her eyes.

"How could I do such a thing! Young man... what do you take me for? No matter what, I'm an adult who's more than ten years older than you," Sakai Iori quickly retorted.

What do I take you for? Of course, I'm the perverted older sister who treats me like a target for her spells.

Judging from Sakai Iori's behavior, she probably isn't shameless enough to cast spells in front of Kiyono Hai offline, but who knows if she'll do something reckless in secret.

Kiyono glanced at the old house as he thought about this.

Hopefully, the soundproofing in this room is good enough. Kiyono Hai doesn't want to be kept awake by Ms. Sakai Iori at night.

Chapter 15 My daughter, you can pick any one and leave.

Kiyono Hai ended up staying at Sakai Iori's house.

Because she stayed up all night, Iori Sakai also took sick leave today and didn't go to the company.

After that, perhaps because they had finally found 'Xianor', they felt relieved.

Sakai Iori slept soundly until late that night.

Qingye Hui didn't stay idle during this time either, since this was a place he might be staying in for a long time in the future.

Despite the limited time available, Qingye Hui managed to clean the quaint house inside and out.

During the cleaning process, Kiyono Hai inevitably learned some information about Sakai Iori.

This house is an old house that has been around for a long time. It was probably left to Sakai Iori by her parents. As for her parents, Kiyono Hai, it is speculated that they lived in the countryside.

Sakai Iori herself is a high-achieving graduate of the University of Tokyo, and has been working in society for nearly eight years since graduation.

Now he can be considered a well-known manager in the industry.

However, what interests Kiyono Hai the most is Sakai Iori, who is currently working as a producer at an idol agency.

"21Rain Idol Agency? Let me see."

Kiyono sat down at the coffee table in the living room, looking at the large pile of documents on the table labeled "21Rain Idol Agency Project Proposal".

Qingye Hui would never do something as impolite as randomly flipping through someone else's business documents.

However, searching for the name of this idol agency online using a mobile phone still yields a large amount of information related to it.

This idol agency is a newly established agency founded in recent years, with a total of eight idols under its management.

If Kiyono Hai isn't mistaken, the true identities of these eight idol girls should all be gods, and the rank of gods should be quite high.

This speculation stems from Kiyono Hai's intuition about people, and for some reason... Kiyono Hai has the ability to distinguish between gods and ordinary people at a glance.

Therefore, Kiyono Hai immediately recognized that the eight idols from 21Rain Idol Agency were all actually deities of considerable rank.

As for why these eight goddess ladies formed a group to become idols...

Qingye Hui didn't even need to guess to know that it was definitely for collecting faith power.

As mentioned before, the stage for "performances" includes not only games, but also anime and movies.

However, the efficiency of collecting faith power in anime and movie settings is extremely Schrödinger-like.

Each viewer can only collect between 0.01 and 0.1 units of faith power from the character after watching the performance.

Although the amount of faith power drawn from an individual viewer is pitifully small.

However, once the number of viewers increases, the amount of faith power that can be drawn is also quite considerable.

Moreover, compared to video game-style "performances" where you have to personally go on stage to fight every time...

The "performance" in anime and movies is a long-term and stable source of income from faith power.

This has led many deities, after reaching a certain level, to try and make a name for themselves in the entertainment or animation industry.

These eight members of 21Rain's goddess group probably... also chose to become idols with this purpose in mind.

"But judging from the online reactions, 21Rain's popularity seems to be just average."

Just as Kiyono was searching for information related to 21Rain on her phone.

Sakai Iori, who was fast asleep on the beanbag chair, finally woke up at this moment.

This red-haired beauty's sleeping posture was really not very attractive; there was even a trace of drool hanging from the corner of her mouth as she drowsily looked on.

It's unclear whether Sakai Iori wasn't fully awake yet, or if she had a dream related to Shanor.

In her dazed state, she mistook Qingye Hui, who was sitting at the coffee table next to her, for Xia Nuoer, and then hugged Qingye Hui from the front like an octopus.

Sakai Iori's long legs also wrapped tightly around Kiyono Hai's waist.

"Xianor, hehe...come give me a kiss."

"If you don't let go, I'm calling the police."

Kiyono gave a quiet reminder, especially after emphasizing the word 'alarm'.

Sakai Iori instantly woke up from her dream, jumping off Kiyono Hai and crawling backwards on all fours until she bumped into the sofa behind her, finally stopping her frantic movements.

"I'm...sorry, young man, I'm still a bit sleepy."

Sakai Iori said, rubbing the back of her head, which was a little sore.

"Do you need me to get you some medicine? Iori-nee, you look like you have a nervous breakdown."

As Kiyono Hai spoke, he leaned towards Sakai Iori, who was slumped on the tatami mat.

This startled Sakai Iori so much that she jumped up as if she had been electrocuted, shouting things like "No, no." and quickly ran to the bathroom.

How long can you endure this... Iori-nee?

Kiyono watched Sakai Iori run into the bathroom, then continued researching 21Rain Idol Agency without thinking too much about it.

Sakai Iori took a quick shower, changed her clothes, and went to the living room to dry her long hair.

Taking this opportunity, Kiyono Hai picked up a proposal about 21Rain Agency from the table and asked a question.
