Tokyo: Starting with the Shrine Maiden

She discovered that Izumi had great potential.

Perhaps it will be of good use to Haruhiko in the future.

Plus, she was bored, so she just helped out.

"I see."

Haruhiko felt a warmth in his heart, and then asked curiously, "Can I eat it?"

"No."

Yukihime shook her head and said, "This is specifically for tsukumogami."

Haruhiko understood.

If it were useful to him, Yukihime would have taken it out long ago.

She won't keep anything to herself.

Dinner is over.

Izumi was still lying there like a salted fish.

Haruhiko wondered to himself, "Could it be that it's been stretched to its limit?"

But when I thought of her true form, I felt relieved.

She is the scabbard of the famous sword Izuminokami Kanesada; how could she break so easily?

a new day.

The school was bustling with activity because of Yagyu Kensuke's arrival, and a welcome banner was even hung up.

Haruhiko felt as if a leader had arrived.

Tachibana Yui and Hoshino Rin didn't seem to care much.

The main reason is that Yagyu Kensuke is a spellcaster and a swordsman, and has nothing to do with them.

Four p.m.

The talisman shop was completely surrounded.

Although most students are not spellcasters, the opportunity to see a fourth-tier powerhouse up close is not common.

Besides, what if you hit it off?

If he were to be accepted as a disciple by Yagyu Kensuke, his career would soar to new heights.

Haruhiko glanced around and saw that most of them were students from the Sword Master Class.

It's worth mentioning that the silhouette on their school uniforms is the character he controlled in his first playthrough, Hayate.

"I'm a member of the Talisman Society, please make way."

After Haruhiko spoke, he immediately received many stares.

There is envy and there is jealousy.

But they all made way.

The spellcaster is undoubtedly the main character today.

Haruhiko breathed a sigh of relief after entering the classroom.

After greeting Masaki Hanakain, he found a seat and sat down.

Not long after, Yagyu Kensuke appeared.

He was an ordinary-looking middle-aged man who appeared to be in his forties.

His traditional samurai attire reminded Haruhiko of the era of his first playthrough.

The lecture officially began.

Haruhiko wasn't interested in the first half of the content.

It mainly consisted of polite remarks and theoretical knowledge.

In the latter half, Yagyu Kensuke finally showed some of his true abilities.

He dismantled a rather peculiar second-tier talisman.

It's called a "divine speed talisman".

The first-tier talisman, the Swiftness Talisman, doubles one's speed.

The duration is determined by the psychic's rank.

If used by a fifth-tier expert, it might become ineffective in less than half a second.

As for the first stage, it will last for about ten seconds.

The Swiftness Talisman has a similar effect to the Speed ​​Talisman.

But there are differences.

It is a constant burst of cheetah-like speed, the duration of which is determined by the psionicist's physical attributes.

It is a very useful escape charm.

To be precise, it's about 100 meters in three seconds.

This speed surpasses that of most second-tier psionicists.

And as long as you're physically fit enough, you can keep running.

Chapter 41 Cleric Advancement

Yagyu Kensuke's lecture has ended.

Thunderous applause erupted in the classroom.

Including Haruhiko.

Because he got a second-tier talisman for free today.

Regardless of Yagyu Kensuke's motives, he undeniably gained benefits.

Haruhiko left the school.

It was already dusk, and instead of going to do the commission, he went straight home.

The Divine Speed ​​Talisman is a second-tier talisman.

Production costs have increased significantly.

It requires 100 points of psionic energy and ten times the materials of a first-tier talisman.

Although the first and second levels use the same type of talisman paper, their thicknesses are completely different.

Haruhiko had obtained enough materials from the talisman requests he had made before, so he immediately started making the Swift Travel Talisman.

By 10 p.m., he had received five tickets.

"Master, you've worked hard!"

Izumi, who was standing by, immediately stepped forward, took a tissue from somewhere, and helped him wipe his sweat.

As Haruhiko watched her petite and delicate body flitting about in his line of sight, he felt as if he had inexplicably become some kind of giant.

A moment later, Izumi dragged the tissue into the trash can, then leaned on his shoulder, breathing slightly.

"Thank you."

Haruhiko put away the teleportation talisman on the table and went to the living room.

Yukihime was sitting on the sofa cultivating.

The overflowing spiritual energy made the surroundings quite cool.

Haruhiko was shocked.

Izumi also showed a comfortable expression.

"Is the talisman finished?"

Yukihime opened her eyes and asked gently.

"Ah."

Haruhiko responded and asked, "Did I disturb your cultivation?"

"No."

Yuki stood up, her jade-like feet encased in black stockings touching the ground.

She walked up to Haruhiko and glanced at Izumi on his shoulder.

"I'm going to bed!"

Izumi's body trembled slightly, and he quickly left.

Yuki hugged Haruhiko, brought her mouth close to his ear, and whispered, "I only cultivated for a while because I was bored while waiting for you."

In fact, her best time to practice is at night.
