Tokyo: Starting with the Shrine Maiden

Even if no one gets burned, it's not good if the food table gets burned.

Not long after, beads of sweat appeared on Haruhiko's forehead.

If we can't hold on, there's a huge fire source right next door.

It felt as if the sun was shining down right in front of you.

Haruhiko wanted to use Yuki-onna: Absolute Zero on himself to neutralize it.

He suddenly had an idea.

If one cultivates the fifth level of the Snow Woman Breathing Technique, one will possess a demon body.

When facing Shiranui, will it melt faster, or will a balance of ice and fire be achieved?

This is a question worth exploring.

If it's the former, he feels as if he has painstakingly cultivated himself, only to have his weaknesses amplified.

The latter means you don't have to worry about being burned to death by Shiranui in the future, and you also have more room for maneuver.

Haruhiko endured the heat, washed all the vegetables, and then delivered them to Tsuchimikado Mari.

"Hard."

Tsuchimikado Mari noticed his sweat and suddenly raised her hand, placing it on his forehead.

A soft yet burning sensation came over me.

But soon, Haruhiko realized that the heat in his body was being lost.

So this ability actually exists?

"Go outside and wait for me."

Tsuchimikado Mari withdrew her hand and said, "There's nothing you can do right now."

"Ok."

Haruhiko nodded.

It's so hot here, it feels like I'm about to catch fire.

"Wait."

Tsuchimikado Mari suddenly called out to him, licked her lips, and asked, "Want to try?"

As she spoke, she lowered her head and silenced Haruhiko's lips with a kiss.

In an instant, my mouth and throat became dry.

Haruhiko quickly took a half step back.

"Your health isn't good."

Mari Tsuchimikado's lips curved into a smile.

The mocking tone made Haruhiko's face stiffen.

hateful!

You'll definitely regret this later!

He turned and left the kitchen, while Tachibana Yui returned to the living room.

However, upon seeing him, her pretty face still flushed slightly.

"Auntie Mashiro".

Haruhiko said with a smile, "Mari-neechan said it will be ready soon, and then we can have dinner."

"Ah."

Tachibana Yui exhaled and gradually calmed down.

She was, after all, the head of the Tsuchimikado clan.

I won't be too embarrassed by this kind of thing.

No, that's not right.

If it were someone else, they wouldn't have had this opportunity at all.

On the spot, he would turn into a corpse.

In this world, only Tsuchimikado Mari and Haruhiko could make her feel this way.

However, since the former is also a woman, it's not so bad.

Only Haruhiko made it difficult for her to maintain her composure.

"Have a meal."

Tsuchimikado Mari changed back into her women's suit and came to the table with her tray.

Immediately, a meaty aroma filled the air.

Haruhiko sniffed and immediately felt ravenously hungry.

He and Tachibana Yui got up and sat down in the chairs.

Tsuchimikado Mari made two trips to the kitchen and then brought out all the grilled meat.

In addition, there was a bottle of fruit wine.

Why is there alcohol?

Tachibana Yui frowned and asked.

"It's not alcohol, just a beverage."

Mari Tsuchimikado explained, "There's no alcohol involved, so you won't get drunk."

Tachibana Yui hesitated for a moment, but based on her trust in her shikigami, she nodded.

Haruhiko subconsciously looked at Tsuchimikado Mari.

He remembered that Tachibana Yui was a lightweight who would get sick after just one drink.

Coupled with what was said on the ship earlier, it made him suspicious.

"You're an adult, you can drink alcohol."

Tsuchimikado Mari exchanged a glance with him and said something.

She poured two glasses and placed them in front of Tachibana Yui and Haruhiko.

Then, he poured himself another glass.

"Say something."

Tsuchimikado Mari raised her sake cup and looked at Tachibana Yui.

"Then I wish you all the best."

Tachibana Yui thought for a moment and then said.

After the three of them clinked glasses, Haruhiko's gaze remained fixed on her.

Seeing that she had drunk half a cup and seemed fine, I felt relieved.

It seems to be a fruit wine with a counterfeit alcoholic flavor.

"I'm starting!"

Haruhiko clapped his hands, performed the table manners, and then picked up his chopsticks.

The grilled meat tasted excellent.

But after about ten minutes, Haruhiko discovered the problem.

A startling blush appeared on Tachibana Yui's face, as if she were drunk.

"How is this going?"

Haruhiko turned to look at Tsuchimikado Mari.

"The fruit wine has a slight alcoholic taste."

Tsuchimikado Mari shrugged, her tone icy, and said, "I thought she was alright."

"..."

Haruhiko twitched the corner of his mouth.

You did it on purpose.

However, he really didn't expect Tachibana Yui's constitution to be so outrageous.

He also drank two glasses of fruit wine, but had no reaction at all.

It's just like the alcoholic beverages from my previous life.

"Haruhiko!"

Tachibana Yui suddenly stood on the bench and then pounced on him.

Haruhiko dared not dodge, lest she fall to the ground.
