Tokyo: Starting with the Shrine Maiden

Chapter 92. The Aftermath

The first class ended, and the game notification sounded.

[Yoshihara Yumi (Third Tier) is teaching you the skill "Priest Spirit Body" (Second Tier), currently at 5% progress.]

Priest Spirit Body: Consumes 100 points of spiritual energy to cover the entire body's skin with a thin but protective film that provides a certain degree of defense.

Under normal circumstances, it can negate one second-order spell and several first-order spells.

It is one of the enhancement series spells, and it is quite practical.

Many priests learn this.

"Haru... Haruhiko-kun, are... are you free?"

A pretty young woman walked up to him, mustered her courage, and looked up at him.

Haruhiko was slightly startled.

The two of them were not familiar with each other at all.

Not far from her, several other girls looked on with regret.

It was as if she had beaten them to it.

“I know a little about biology, so we… can discuss… human anatomy and genetics.”

As the girl spoke, her face quickly turned rosy, adding to her shyness and captivating charm.

Do you also want to know what deoxyribose is?

Haruhiko thought about it for a moment.

The girl is the heir to a middle-class family.

Such a direct invitation doesn't mean she's some kind of prostitute.

Instead, she wanted Haruhiko to become her son-in-law.

This practice is quite common among psychic families.

Many ordinary geniuses couldn't resist the temptation and joined them, helping the family grow stronger.

In a sense, it's a win-win situation.

But Haruhiko has too many options.

These conditions are not enough.

"Feel sorry."

Haruhiko shook his head and said, "I have something to do tonight."

He picked up his schoolbag and left the classroom.

It's 10 a.m. now, so it's not late.

Haruhiko quickly arrived at the principal's office and knocked on the door.

"Please come in."

Kaoru Aizawa's voice came through.

Compared to her usual self, she appeared more dignified and capable.

Haruhiko pushed open the door and went in.

"So it's my junior brother."

Kaoru Aizawa's tone immediately softened considerably.

She was still wearing the same outfit as yesterday: a women's suit jacket and a pencil skirt.

This reminded Haruhiko of Tsuchimikado Mari.

However, the former is a secretary, and the latter is a president.

They are quite different in temperament.

"I don't know what you like to drink, and I didn't prepare anything in advance, so please make do with this."

Kaoru Aizawa got up, bent down to fill a cup with hot water from the water dispenser, and then placed it on the coffee table.

"Thank you, senior sister."

Haruhiko subconsciously looked up and saw the glossy black stockings under her skirt.

He shifted his gaze, picked up the hot water, and tactically took a sip.

"What type of third-tier spirit tool do you want?"

Kaoru Aizawa sat opposite him and asked.

Spirit tools can be roughly divided into three categories: attack, defense, and support.

Haruhiko had already thought about this before.

Ultimately, I plan to get a defensive spirit tool.

He has no shortage of attack methods now.

The spells inherited by the Celestial Fox are far more powerful than those of the four major professions of the same level.

It is undoubtedly sufficient.

However, there are relatively few defensive spells.

"That's it."

After hearing Haruhiko's request, Aizawa Kaoru's face showed deep thought.

A moment later, she opened her right hand and then turned a ring on her ring finger with her left hand.

The light of psionic energy flickered slightly, and a rather narrow white bracelet appeared.

"It's called the Wind Demon Bracelet."

Kaoru Aizawa explained, "Its function is simple: it will automatically defend itself when you are attacked."

Haruhiko's eyes lit up; it sounded pretty good.

He accepted the Wind Demon Bracelet.

"But there are three limitations."

Kaoru Aizawa held up three fingers and said, “First, the range is one meter in radius around the user; second, the defense attack strength is at most level three, and it cannot defend multiple times in a short period of time; third, it has a reaction speed. If it is too fast, for example, level four speed, then there is no time to react.”

Haruhiko nodded.

After all, it's a third-tier spiritual tool; it can't be too overpowered.

Even so, it's already quite good.

At least I won't be so embarrassed when facing opponents of the same level in the future.

"What about third-tier psionic materials? What are your thoughts?"

Kaoru Aizawa smiled and asked again.

"A third-tier vengeful spirit bead."

Haruhiko didn't need to hesitate to give this answer.

After being purified, vengeful spirits have a certain chance of dropping special items.

The Vengeful Spirit Pearl is one of them; it is the essence of vengeful spirits and contains pure soul power.

It is also one of the materials needed for Haruhiko to advance from the second stage to the third stage.

"You do know how to choose."

Kaoru Aizawa commented, "The Vengeful Spirit Pearl is a very rare material of the third tier, and its value far exceeds that of ordinary materials of the same tier."

"Senior sister, are you reluctant to part with her?"

Upon hearing this, Haruhiko asked in a teasing tone.

"Senior Sister won't care about these materials."

Kaoru Aizawa rolled her eyes at him, her expression full of charm.

She turned the ring on her ring finger again and took out a vengeful spirit bead.

It looks a lot like the glass marbles that Haruhiko played with when he was a child.

He took it and put it into his storage ring.

"Thank you, senior sister."

Haruhiko quickly finished the hot water in the glass and prepared to say goodbye and leave.

"You earned it through your own hard work, so you don't need to thank me."

Kaoru Aizawa saw through his intention and asked, "Where are you going later? To the teacher's place?"
