Tokyo: Starting with the Shrine Maiden

He turned and walked ahead.

Haruhiko quickly followed.

The two entered the aerial fortress.

The facilities inside were quite luxurious and impressed Haruhiko.

It's no worse than the auction house he went to with Hoshino Rin before.

"Please rest and wait inside."

The Zashiki-warashi said, "The auction will officially begin at nine o'clock tomorrow morning."

"Thank you."

Haruhiko pushed open the door and suddenly raised an eyebrow.

What comes into view is a huge waterbed.

not bad.

The service was excellent.

Haruhiko took out his phone after thinking for a moment.

There is no signal.

It's either out of service area or blocked.

Haruhiko leans towards the latter.

Since we can't contact each other, let's cultivate together.

However, for safety's sake, he did not dispel his demon form.

Five thousand words.

Chapter 182 The Mermaid Princess

The time spent in cultivation passed quickly.

However, this is the first time he has used the body of a mermaid to cultivate.

how to say.

There is no difference.

Since Haruhiko reached the third level of the Yuki-onna Breathing Technique, his body has also become equivalent to a third-level demon body.

In other words, it's the same as the merman's demon form.

night.

There was a knock on the door.

Haruhiko opened the door.

It is a daytime Zashiki-warashi.

Good evening, guest.

He bowed slightly politely and asked, "Dinner is served at Mount Oe. Would you like to order from the restaurant or dine there yourself?"

"Ordering food."

Haruhiko thought for a moment and then said.

The main reason is that as the first male merman in history, he is simply too eye-catching.

Who knows, some monster might want to study it.

"Ok."

The zashiki-warashi handed over the menu.

Haruhiko glanced at it and couldn't help but be a little surprised.

It doesn't look too different from a human menu.

He randomly ordered two dishes.

The zashiki-warashi took the menu and left.

Not long after, he came back with a food cart and knocked on the door again.

"We'll come back to collect the plates in an hour."

After placing the food down, the Zashiki-warashi bowed and left the room.

"The service was quite attentive."

Haruhiko sighed again.

In the first playthrough, a thousand years ago, the monsters were quite rude.

Now, times have changed.

It will be difficult to survive if things continue as they were in the past.

After all, humans are the dominant species in this world.

After finishing his meal, Haruhiko continued his cultivation.

Another half hour passed, and the knocking on the door sounded again.

"Please come in."

Haruhiko knew that the Zashiki-warashi (a type of Japanese house spirit) was collecting the plates, so he didn't lock the door.

The door was pushed open.

He turned his head and was taken aback.

It wasn't a Zashiki-warashi who arrived, but a woman wearing a black trench coat.

Except for her face, her entire body was completely covered up.

The exposed face, with its fair and delicate features, was adorned with blue eyeshadow and blush, giving it a somewhat eerie appearance.

"who are you?"

Haruhiko gripped the Three Goddess Scepters and asked with some wariness.

However, he wasn't particularly panicked.

According to the rules, fighting is prohibited at the Oeyama Auction House.

If you disobey, you will offend the Demon Alliance.

Unless you have a very strong background, it will be difficult to get by in the future.

The woman didn't speak; she reached out her hands and began to unbutton her trench coat.

"...?"

Haruhiko looked confused.

Immortal jump?

Oh wait, I mean, a freak jump?

Or is it a special program prepared by the Oeyama Auction?

Chiyome didn't mention this before.

The next second, Haruhiko's eyes widened.

After her black trench coat was removed, her long blue hair floated up like rippling waves.

The exposed skin was snow-white and moisturized.

On the upper body, in key areas, there are scales that provide cover.

However, because the snow-capped mountains are so majestic, it seems like burying one's head in the sand.

What follows are not legs, but a fish tail.

At this moment, like Haruhiko, he was slightly suspended in mid-air.

They are mermaids.

Haruhiko never expected to encounter a merman.

As far as he knew, the only merman outside was that princess.

They delivered themselves to our door so quickly?

Although Haruhiko was surprised, he had to admit that it was a good thing.

After all, he had promised that merman that he would send the princess to the Sea of ​​Immortality.

To be honest, he was actually quite interested in the Sea of ​​Immortality.

Mermaids are among the few monsters that can live forever.
