Tokyo: Starting with the Shrine Maiden

She licked her lips, parted them slightly, and asked, "Is it full?"

"Psionic energy has been replenished."

Haruhiko let out a breath and said, "Thank you, Mari-neechan."

"You're welcome."

Tsuchimikado Mari pursed her lips and said, "You've already done a great job, keep up the good work."

"..."

Haruhiko felt that something was off about that statement.

But it doesn't seem to have any problems.

"Come find me when you're done using it."

Tsuchimikado Mari scratched her head and turned to leave.

She did not disturb Haruhiko.

After going downstairs, I saw Tachibana Yui watching TV and couldn't help but smile.

"Haruhiko is making good progress."

Mari Tsuchimikado said, "He can already create third-tier talismans, and with the same 100% success rate."

"That's truly an amazing talent!"

Upon hearing this, Tachibana Yui's eyes sparkled like stars.

This means that Haruhiko becoming a fifth-tier spellcaster is just around the corner.

At that time, her substitute will receive a true promotion and break the fifth-level seal.

In a sense, they are no longer human.

What did you just do?

Tachibana Yui suddenly realized what was happening and asked.

"Replenish his spiritual energy."

Mari Tsuchimikado rested her chin on her hand and said, "He uses his spiritual energy very quickly."

"Oh."

Tachibana Yui turned her face away, gritted her teeth, and puffed out her cheeks slightly.

hateful!

Why didn't you call me?

Am I not as good as Manari?

"He probably just didn't want to bother you."

Tsuchimikado Mari looked her over with interest and said.

"What are you talking about? I don't understand."

Tachibana Yui stood up and walked upstairs. "I'm going to deal with family matters."

Haruhiko was unaware of the story downstairs.

After using up all my spiritual energy again, it was already 4:30 PM.

"Want me to help you?"

Suddenly, Tsuchimikado Mari's voice rang out.

Haruhiko turned around and saw her, who had changed her clothes.

It's a red kimono.

She leaned against the door, her whole being resembling a blooming flower, captivating and enchanting.

"it is good."

Haruhiko didn't stand on ceremony and said, "Thank you for your help, Mari-neechan."

"So that no one can see it."

Tsuchimikado Mari took two steps forward, flipped her fair, delicate feet back, and closed the door.

In the entire mansion, besides her, there was only one other person: Tachibana Yui.

Haruhiko thought to himself, "Your shikigami is indeed disloyal."

He thought about it, then stepped forward and gave her a verbal reprimand.

However, as expected of Shiranui, she was eloquent and quick-witted, able to rival him.

After several minutes of back-and-forth fighting, Haruhiko was finally defeated and surrendered.

"Mari-neechan".

Haruhiko took a breath and said, "I need to go to the school square. Could you please give me a ride? The sparring session starts at five o'clock."

"There's enough time."

Mari Tsuchimikado said calmly, "Wait for me at the entrance. I'll change my clothes and then go get the car."

Five thousand words.

Chapter 163. Let's see your courage.

Haruhiko waited at the door.

Two minutes later, a red car slowly pulled up in front of him.

The car window had been rolled down, revealing Tsuchimikado Mari's aloof yet exquisite face.

She changed her kimono into a women's suit and pencil skirt.

Haruhiko was slightly puzzled.

He remembered that Tsuchimikado Mari had driven a car before while wearing a kimono.

Logically speaking, there's no need to waste time changing clothes.

Despite his doubts, he did not ask.

Haruhiko opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat.

Tsuchimikado Mari glanced at him, took out her glasses case, opened it, and put on her glasses.

Unlike the previous black frame, today's is frameless with gold trim.

After she put it on, she gave off a domineering female CEO vibe.

“I taught you music scores before.”

Tsuchimikado Mari took his hand and placed it on her black-stockinged thigh. "Today I'll teach you the first lesson in improving your mental fortitude: no matter what happens, you must remain calm."

Haruhiko recalled what had happened before and fell into deep thought.

Doing this could really cause a car accident!

"Young master."

Tsuchimikado Mari leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Let me see your guts."

She stepped on the gas and started the red car.

Haruhiko felt a little helpless. Since things had come to this point, he decided to give her a massage.

However, aside from everything else, it's quite warm.

In her human form, the temperature of her skin surface is higher than that of a normal person.

Now that it's autumn/winter skills, Haruhiko feels like he's sitting by a fire.

"Are you sure?"

When they arrived at the school gate, Tsuchimikado Mari pulled out a piece of paper and handed it to him, asking in a calm tone.

"It's not a big problem."

Haruhiko wiped his hands and said, "Ordinary third-tier opponents don't pose much of a threat to me."

Besides the fact that he created a lot of third-tier talismans, there was another reason.

He is a player who can learn and master third-order spells.

In fact, setting aside the upper limit of psionic energy, he is currently at the third tier.

Where are you going after you're done?

Mari Tsuchimikado's expression remained unchanged.

"go home."

Haruhiko glanced at it, and began to doubt his own massage skills. "Mari-neechan, you don't need to wait for me."
