Tokyo: Starting with the Shrine Maiden

"Liuli, don't be angry."

Hoshino Rin stepped forward and gently rubbed her little face.

Liuli, on the other hand, looked utterly dejected.

Haruhiko couldn't help but smile.

The two beautiful girls, one tall and one short, together are quite a sight to behold.

The appearance of Liuli aroused his interest in contracting a demon.

Theoretically speaking, all kinds of monsters are possible.

For example, Yukihime.

In reality, no monster with even a little strength or ambition would allow itself to become a human's pet.

Therefore, it is not very useful for warding off demons.

Unless a low-level monster with special abilities is found.

Chapter 36: Monster Retreat

As the bell rang, Monday came to an end.

But for the students, the fun time has just begun.

"See you tomorrow, Haruhiko-kun."

Hoshino Rin waved to him and went to the swimming club.

Haruhiko's talisman club wasn't that busy.

Nothing to do today, but there's a gathering in a couple of days.

Haruhiko planned to go and listen to see if he could get a second-tier talisman for free.

As he was planning to take on the commission, something soft pressed down on his textbook.

He looked up along the pleated skirt and saw Tachibana Yui's delicate and petite figure.

Oh, after-school private tutoring.

Haruhiko remembered this incident.

He stood up and looked down at Tachibana Yui.

Because of the peace, everything is laid out before us.

"Sit down!"

Tachibana Yui immediately expressed her dissatisfaction.

With its cheeks puffed out, it looked just like a hamster.

"Teaching is here?"

Haruhiko stared at her delicate, palm-sized face.

The more I look at it, the more it resembles a lifelike doll.

"No."

Tachibana Yui's eyelashes trembled slightly as she spoke.

"Let's go then."

Haruhiko put his arm around her slender waist, placed her on the ground, and said, "Sitting at the table is not a good habit."

It's so light and soft.

He secretly savored the feel of it.

"You...you...you?!"

Tachibana Yui stared wide-eyed, as if she had witnessed something unbelievable.

In fact, that's exactly what happened.

Haruhiko's actions just now were unprecedented for her.

She realized what was happening, and her hands were already clenched tightly, revealing fists the size of small steamed buns.

"Teacher Wei."

Haruhiko realized the danger and said, "Hitting students is not allowed."

"You wait for me!"

Tachibana Yui suddenly turned around.

Her long, flowing hair brushed against Haruhiko's face, allowing him to smell the scent of cherry blossoms.

He quickly followed.

The two eventually arrived at the school's piano room.

Tsuchimikado Mari stood at the door, still wearing that black suit uniform.

Inside the school, he actually looks more like a teacher than many other teachers do.

Haruhiko suddenly recalled many works depicting Japanese teachers sweating profusely while teaching and nurturing students in the classroom.

At that time, he was particularly envious of their students.

"Good afternoon, Mari-neechan."

Haruhiko stopped and greeted him politely.

Tachibana Yui immediately glared at him with a kind look, then walked a few steps to the piano.

She took off her shoes and sat directly on the piano lid.

The little feet, wrapped in white cotton socks, dangled restlessly.

"come in."

Upon seeing this, Tsuchimikado Mari gave an intellectual smile.

Compared to Tachibana Yui, she is more like a capable and strong woman.

Haruhiko casually found a seat and sat down.

Mari Tsuchimikado walked up to the piano.

Tachibana Yui pouted.

Although still angry, she moved aside.

As Tsuchimikado Mari stretched out her hands, melodious piano music immediately filled the air.

Haruhiko raised an eyebrow.

It really is her, Shiranui.

After his initial surprise, he stopped wasting time and began psychic meditation.

In any case, as long as you are near Shiranui, you will be affected by her talent.

What you do is irrelevant.

After he closed his eyes, Tachibana Yui moved closer to him.

Her upper body was slightly tilted, and her small face was only a few centimeters away from Haruhiko.

A pair of eyes scrutinized the face.

It's beautiful, but the people in it are rather awful.

Tachibana Yui gave a soft hum and moved her little head down a bit more.

My eyes were right up to his jawline.

She was slightly startled.

It really seems.

Just then, Haruhiko opened his eyes.

After staring at each other for a few seconds, Tachibana Yui quickly stepped back.

My heart started pounding again after a long time.

"If you want to watch it, you can watch it openly and honestly."

Haruhiko chuckled softly and said.

"Who...who wants to see you?!"

Tachibana Yui blushed slightly, turned her head, and said.

"Then I was just being presumptuous."

Haruhiko nodded seriously.

Tachibana Yui was so angry that she showed her two canine teeth again.
