Tokyo: Starting with the Shrine Maiden

Haruhiko nodded and said, "I was quite surprised at the time too."

"It feels pretty good to be classmates with my idol."

Hoshino Rin glanced at Tachibana Yui out of the corner of her eye.

She was very content, writing and drawing in the book.

They seemed to have absolutely no interest in the conversation between the two of them.

"She gave me my concert tickets before."

Haruhiko chuckled and said, "We can listen to it for free from now on."

Hoshino Rin's face flushed slightly when she heard the word "we".

She responded with a nod, which was taken as an agreement.

Did you collect your commission reward from Saturday?

Haruhiko opened his schoolbag, took out his textbook for the first class, and placed it on his desk.

It was still warm because Tachibana Yui had just sat on it.

"Ah."

Hoshino Rin looked around and said, "I'll show you again at noon."

Is it some kind of large spiritual artifact?

A hint of interest flashed in Haruhiko's eyes.

Today's lesson is "The Complete Guide to Universal Spells for Priests".

He has already mastered the Priest's Blazing Sun technique that Maeda Ayumi had previously taught him.

This is a new spell called Priest's Holy Light Barrier.

As the name suggests, the effect is to cast holy light on the person and create a barrier that can resist minor damage; this is the first-tier spell.

It is worth mentioning that it has a double effect on spirit-type demons.

Haruhiko observed Tachibana Yui.

She wasn't listening to the lecture; she was writing songs the whole time.

The morning classes are over.

"I have something to do later, so I'll take my leave first."

Tachibana Yui revealed her two canine teeth and smiled slightly.

Haruhiko was somewhat puzzled.

This isn't like her at all.

"Something must have happened at the company."

Hoshino Rin noticed Haruhiko's expression and said, "I heard her say before that next month is her fourth anniversary of debut."

Four years?

Has it been that long?

Haruhiko was thoughtful.

He remembered the time when Tachibana Yui wrote a song during class.

School gate.

Tsuchimikado Mari is already waiting.

She produced a blood type test report.

Tachibana Yui glanced at it and breathed a sigh of relief.

The blood types match.

However, it is not as accurate as a paternity test.

Because blood types can mutate.

Rooftop.

Haruhiko took out a mat and put it down.

He sat down on it and took out the bento box that Yuki had prepared.

The same goes for Hoshino Rin.

But unlike usual, she was standing very close.

Haruhiko could feel her soft hips and the delicate fragrance emanating from her body.

He didn't say anything.

Hoshino Rin opened her mouth slightly and exhaled.

She shifted her body, bringing her long legs together, and then picked up the lunchbox.

Lunch ended in a quiet atmosphere.

Hoshino Rin put away the bento box, stood up, and faced Haruhiko.

Haruhiko was sitting down at the moment, and his gaze fell directly on her black stockings.

The stockings looked smooth and cottony under the sunlight.

I wonder what it feels like to the touch?

Hoshino Rin took out a talisman.

After the smoke cleared, a mysterious black cat appeared.

"This is my yokai tamer, Nekomata, which I mentioned before."

Hoshino Rin crouched down and stroked the black cat's head with her small hand.

The Nekomata, in legends, is a two-tailed yokai that is relatively friendly to humans.

Their own strength is average, so those who have difficulty living in the wild will seek out a good psychic to become their pet.

"Liuli, say hello."

Hoshino Rin pointed at Haruhiko and said.

"Hello."

Liuli spoke human language, and it was an extremely childish loli voice.

Haruhiko immediately responded with a smile.

It's only natural that monsters can speak human language.

He wasn't surprised.

The powerful cat can also transform into human form.

If she is kind, she will appear as a beautiful girl.

Those with fierce temperaments will turn into old women, talk to humans, and then eat them.

Many of the monsters or gods in Japanese legends are like this.

Good and evil are intertwined.

It can be considered a local specialty.

"Liuli, take out the spiritual tool I gave you yesterday."

Hoshino Rin patted her head and said.

Liuli was somewhat reluctant, but she did as she was told.

A red bow suddenly appeared on her black tail.

"Isn't it beautiful?"

Hoshino Rin's beautiful eyes overflowed with laughter.

"It doesn't look good."

Liuli's body shimmered with light.

A moment later, a little girl appeared in front of Haruhiko.

She was about one meter tall, with a cool and aloof expression, and her black hair reached down to her thighs.

Her black gothic dress, paired with her expression, made her look like a doll.

However, her cat ears and tail ruined the atmosphere.

It added a touch of cuteness.

Especially the red bow on the cat's tail.

Haruhiko understood why Ruri didn't like it very much.

She probably envisioned an image that was both cool and mysterious.
