A Stardew Valley farmer came to Gensokyo.

As she spoke, Kazama Yuka's face showed regret.

"Originally, I was planning to wait a couple of days until you were a little stronger before making my move and combining our bodies."

"For now, in order to prevent any further accidents, let's use this body for now."

Chapter 156 The Battle Will End in an Instant

Is this just an ordinary girl?!

Feeling as if her body was locked in hydraulic clamps, Xia Xun felt like lying down.

After all, the girl sitting on his lap, wanting to devour him, really smelled delicious.

but!

At this moment, Xia Xun couldn't stop the image of Ibuki Suika's small face from appearing in his mind.

"I'm sorry, but for the first time, I still want pure love."

Speaking calmly, Xia Xun's magic was surging at an unprecedented speed, the turbulent magic even causing elemental ripples around him.

"Don't you want to give in?"

Upon seeing this, Kazama Yuka's crimson eyes revealed a frenzied excitement.

That's how it should be; how could the person she sets her sights on be a coward!

Even if I have to kneel down in the end, it should be after a fierce battle with her.

Boom!

A jet of water suddenly sprayed towards Kazama Yuuka, and the girl who was suppressing Natsumi could only get up and nimbly dodge it.

After all, she hadn't lied to Xia Xun.

In order to deceive the other powerful demons, this body is really just the body of an ordinary human girl.

The reason she was able to suppress Xia Xun was simply because Kazama Yuka used the techniques of a great demon to seal the power within his body.

But after Xia Xun unleashed her rampaging magic, the seal was broken.

With a somersault like a carp, Xia Xun sprang to her feet and looked at Kazama Yuka standing in the room. She paused in her work and said, "Why don't you put your clothes on first?"

"Hehe, don't worry." Kazama Yuka smiled and said, "The battle will be over in an instant against you now."

Even though her body is currently extremely fragile, as the Flower Tyrant, Kazama Yuuka has absolute confidence that she can take down Natsumi in a very short time.

After all, based on my observation over this period of time, he is just an ordinary person with power who doesn't understand fighting at all.

The moment she finished speaking, Kazama Yuka's body transformed into a sharp arrow, hurtling towards Xia Xun with an unpredictable trajectory.

The girl's strange gait made it impossible for Xia Xun to catch a glimpse of her for a moment, but the warrior instincts he had just acquired that morning took over his body at this moment.

She crouched down, swung her arm to defend, used the momentum to retreat, and then her powerful punch landed hard on the surprised Kazama Yuka's abdomen.

"you!"

Before she could finish speaking, Kazama Yuka collapsed to the ground. Although she was still trying to get up, just as she said, this body belonged to an ordinary girl.

Therefore, the fact that he didn't die on the spot after taking Xia Xun's punch is already a testament to his high level of cultivation as a great demon.

Xia Xun looked at Kazama Yuka lying on the ground in disbelief, then looked at his own fist.

"I'm so strong~"

He said cheerfully, and then quickly knelt down to use healing magic on Kazama Yuuka.

The girl on the ground was bleeding from the corners of her mouth, which was quite frightening.

A while later.

The room fell silent. Kazama Yuka, who had recovered from her injuries, slowly got up from the floor, glanced at Natsumi who had turned her back, picked up her clothes and put them back on.

Am I not pretty enough?

Suddenly, Kazama Yuka's voice rang out from inside the room.

Upon hearing this, Xia Xun turned to look at the girl who had already put her clothes back on, and shook her head without even thinking when faced with her question.

“No, you are beautiful whether you are Yuuka or Kazama Yuuka,” Xia Xun said seriously. Then, before Kazama Yuuka could speak, he added, “I know you want to ask why I am unwilling.”

"It's simple. Although I'm a bit awkward, I like pretty girls and I have no backbone."

"But I still have faith in love."

"And between us," Xia Xun said, looking at Kazama Yuka, "there is no feeling yet that can be called love."

"If it's just about desire, I'd rather do it myself."

"Love, what a naive idea."

Kazama Yuka smiled without any surprise upon hearing this, and then said, "However, you are stronger now, so I will abide by your rules."

"Then, I will try my best to make you fall in love with me."

Xia Xun breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

However, looking at Kazama Yuka in front of him, he did not expect that the flower tyrant would go to such lengths for him.

"How are you doing right now?" Xia Xun asked.

“A clone.” Kazama Yuka explained succinctly, looking at Natsumi and saying, “However, here I am still Yuka.”

...Role-playing game, right?

Xia Xun nodded obediently to show that she understood. If the big boss wanted to play, then as a newbie, she should cooperate.

"Yuka, can I ask you a question?" Xia Xun looked at Kazama Yuka and said, "Why do you want me so much?"

"We've probably only met a few times."

"Because we share a similar origin," Kazama Yuka told Natsumi directly.

Although she already knew this was the case, Xia Xun still sighed a little when she heard the answer.

This translates to: "There are only two of us in this world who are the same kind of people. If I don't look for you, who else should I look for?"

Well, he didn't lose anything anyway, since this woman from his clan was a super beauty, just a bit crazy.

"I knew it would be like this."

Xia Xun sighed helplessly. As expected, Aya Shameimaru was a fake news reporter; he was not the succubus from Gensokyo.

"So, Youxiang, what are your plans for the future?" Xia Xun asked curiously, resting her chin on her right hand.

After all, everything has been exposed. Even if the big boss wants to continue playing the role-playing game, he already knows who his target is, so how can he continue acting?

"Look at you."

Kazama Yuka pointed her small hand and looked at the bewildered Xia Xun with a smile: "After all, I am your possession now."

"So until I defeat you, as the loser, I will unconditionally obey your orders in order to survive."

“This is the law of survival among yokai,” Kazama Yuka blinked. “Just like you do to that little night sparrow, you can control everything about me.”

"...Can I not take it?" Xia Xun was silent for a moment, then spoke.

“Okay, but then I’ll have to grow up.” Kazama Yuka nodded, looking nonchalant.

Upon hearing this, Xia Xun burst into tears: "Then, can I surrender?"

"You want to come home with me!" Kazama Yuka said excitedly.

"Then you should come home with me." Xia Xun sighed and chose to accept.

Watching Kazama Yuuka get up and pat her skirt, he was deeply moved. This was how the big shots in Gensokyo chose their partners.

They seem no different from cavemen; if they see someone they like, they knock them unconscious and take them home. If they can't beat someone, they knock them unconscious and take them home.

And to be honest, this kind of attitude of being wholeheartedly devoted to you.

Natsumi felt that she couldn't hold on for long. Once she fulfilled her promise to Ibuki Suika, she would probably soon find herself falling in love with Kazami Yuuka without even realizing it.

Although love is rare, liking someone is really easy.

Men are truly a pathetic creature.

As Natsumi led Kazama Yuka home, she was already thinking about what to do if Ibuki Suika and she got into a fight that night.

Looking?

Chapter 157 Monsters, they're not just found everywhere.

Xianglin Hall.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Morichika."

As Xia Xun pushed open the door and walked into the store, she greeted Mori Chika Rinnosuke with a smile.

"How's the stuff I asked you to collect coming along?"

"It's all collected."

Morichika Rinnosuke, who was studying something with his head down, looked up and, upon hearing Natsumi's question, immediately took out a wooden box from behind him and opened it.

Xia Xun quickly stepped forward and found five pieces of coral and four bottles of honey inside, instantly replenishing the materials needed to make the ocean and farm teleportation totems.

"That's great, thanks to Mr. Morichika."

Xia Xun said happily, then looked up at Mori Chika Rinnosuke and said somewhat embarrassedly, "Um, Mr. Mori Chika, actually I want to ask you for a favor."

"I'm planning a long trip soon, so I'd like a weapon for self-defense, and it would be even better if I had suitable protective gear."

Upon hearing this, Morichika Rinnosuke instantly became wary, quickly looking at Natsumi and saying, "No, I absolutely will not give it to you!"

"Are you really going out, or are you just trying to find an excuse to cheat me out of my sword?" Morichi Rinnosuke looked Xia Xun up and down for a while before confirming again.

"Really, really!" Xia Xun nodded quickly, then said, "We don't need the Misty Rain Sword, any other sword will do."

"However," he chuckled and scratched his head, "please offer a discount."

Seeing Xia Xun's expression, Morichi Rinnosuke understood that he truly wanted to travel far away.

Although it is dangerous for ordinary people to travel far in Gensokyo, he would not stop him, as someone who enjoys going to Muenzuka to buy goods on a regular basis.

"Then wait a moment."

Morichika Rinnosuke turned and went into the house, and a while later he came out carrying a large pile of things to prepare.

Then, the items were placed on the counter one by one and distributed to Xia Xun for introduction.

"A peach wood sword for exorcising evil spirits, a Taoist ritual implement, very effective against evil spirits, vengeful ghosts, and walking corpses."

"A silver-plated steel sword, a Western magic weapon, which has a certain effect on suppressing evil spirits and can also be used as a primary weapon."

"A protective talisman, given to me by Reimu as payment for a debt, and it works very well."

"Enchanted chainmail, worn close to the skin, with enchantments of dexterity, speed, and protection."

"They are really diverse."

Looking at the four items, each from a different source, Xia Xun couldn't help but sigh, and then began to ponder which two to choose.

After all, these things look ridiculously expensive, but compared to the weapon shops in the Human Village, an ordinary iron sword is definitely worth more than 1800.

But before Xia Xun could finish selecting anything, Mori Chika Rinnosuke pushed all the items in front of him and then sat back down in his old seat.

"I'm lending you all these things." With a wave of his hand, Morichika Rinnosuke said casually, "If there's any damage or anything, you can replace them when you get back."

"Thank you, Mr. Morichika."

After spending this time together, Xia Xun gradually came to know what kind of person Morichika Rinnosuke was, so she didn't stand on ceremony.

"Don't worry, I will definitely come back safe and sound and return your things."

After packing up her things, Xia Xun waved and hurriedly left Xianglin Hall again.

Watching his retreating figure, Morichika Rinnosuke silently offered his blessings, hoping for his safe return.

When Natsumi returned to the Human Village, she happened to run into Tatara Kosuke, who was on her way home.

"Little Umbrella, guess who I am?"

Xia Xun quietly stepped forward and covered Tatara Kosuke's eyes, smiling as she spoke.
