Yoshiyuki suddenly revealed his true colors, and seemed completely unashamed and self-righteous, leaving Erina somewhat at a loss.

She seemed to be stunned for a moment, as if a single-core CPU couldn't handle such a huge amount of information, before she blushed slightly and loudly cursed him as a hopeless pervert. Yi Xing felt quite ashamed, but also secretly pleased.

After a while.

"Alright, Hime. That blank slip doesn't count. Let's draw another one," Yoshiyuki said, pointing to the fortune-telling box.

However, Xiao Ji shook her head, walked closer to the spot where the bad slip was tied, and used her small hand to pull the thin rope and tie the blank slip to it.

Yixing understood her decision. After all, drawing a blank lot is considered quite unlucky in some places.

It can be described as an existence even more terrifying than the Great Calamity.

So tying them up directly is fine too.

Naturally, Erina's divination slip was also tied on it.

As she tied her up, she muttered, "This scumbag servant is so rude, I have to tell Erisa."

"What did I do this time?!" Yoshiyuki asked, both amused and exasperated. "Did I do anything that warrants reporting to the First Lady of the Underworld?"

"You're such a pervert, how dare you ask!" Erina glared at him and complained, "I'll have Lady Erisa curse you so that all you can think about is women's clothing!"

"No, young lady! Even if I turn to ashes, I will always remember you!"

"Huh?" Erina seemed a little surprised and touched, stammering, "Even if you say that..."

"After all, even if I turn to ashes, I'd definitely want to be trampled on by the young lady's shoes!"

"Enough, you pervert!" Erina snapped, enraged. "I knew it!"

Fortunately, the conversation just now wasn't very loud.

Otherwise, the thought that Sakura Yukichiai might hear those words made him feel incredibly ashamed.

He wasn't a real psychopath after all.

Therefore, he doesn't want anyone other than Erina and Hime to know that he has this interest.

...Although, it seems that Master had seen through everything long ago.

Yoshiyuki was a little curious whether Maekawa and Hiroshi shared the same interests.

If he is also this kind of person, then everything becomes easier to understand.

Hopefully, the former Witch of the Underworld satisfied him properly and didn't leave any regrets in this strange place.

Yi Xing walked back to the community office and looked at the goods sold there.

Besides drawing fortune slips, you can also find talismans, ema (votive plaques), and fresh and dried first snow tea packaged in resealable bags.

A self-sealing bag is a packaging bag with a slit at the top that can be opened and closed. The one used here is the cheapest type, made of transparent plastic.

The first snow tea wasn't priced, so it was probably a free, non-sale item.

Although the conditions for receiving the gift are not specified, judging from the size of each packet of First Snow Tea, it's impossible for just anyone to get it.

Perhaps it's a complimentary gift specifically for regular customers?

Yoshiyuki secretly speculated and decided to ask Sakura Yukichi, who was nowhere to be found, later.

As for the amulet, it is a protective charm.

The amulets here are as inexpensive as fortune sticks; you can buy one for just 200 yen.

Judging from the pictures on display, it was a small pink cloth bag decorated with several cherry blossoms and cherry tree branches, with the words "御守" (amulet) written on the front.

The bag has a drawstring at the top, which can be tied to items such as cell phones or bags.

Inside the bag was a small wooden board.

One side is engraved with "Hatsuyuki Shrine - Sakura God's First Snow", and the other side is engraved with some blessings and prayers.

For example, "peace and safety", "forming a bond", and "achieving academic success".

All types can be seen from the diagram.

What's quite special is that the amulets here actually include the "cutting edge" type.

These kinds of amulets are extremely rare, and very few shrines can provide them.

However, "insulation" amulets are quite common.

The reason is that it can be considered to be immune to diseases, thieves, and so on.

However, "cutting off the connection" specifically refers to severing the bond with one's partner.

However, most gods are not experts at severing ties between people and do not have the power to do so well.

It's not surprising that good intentions can lead to bad outcomes, or even cause serious trouble. Thus, blessings can turn into curses.

Therefore, very few shrines can offer this kind of blessing.

Sakura Goddess Hatsuyuki is one of the few deities who excels in this area.

Because cherry blossoms are inherently associated with separation.

We met on the day the cherry blossoms bloomed, and we parted on the day they fell...

Upon reflection, campus life is similar.

New students enter the campus during the cherry blossom season. In the future, they will also graduate during this season.

The magic of the amulet lasts for one year.

As for how to handle the situation after the expiration date, you need to ask the shrine maidens or priests of each shrine.

Some require the property to be returned to its original location, while others say it can be returned to any shrine.

Some people said they could just burn it themselves, while others said they could keep it for life and even take it to their grave.

The rules for Hatsuyuki Shrine are also written on the notice board.

The words written above brought a knowing smile to Yixing's face.

[Lady First Snow said that you can do whatever you want with the amulet after it expires. Personally, I think it's beautiful and could be kept as a collectible?]

After looking at these, he turned his attention to the ema (votive plaques).

The term "ema" (votive plaque) is divided into two types: large ema and small ema.

The large ema (votive plaque) is somewhat like a plaque and is quite rare.

Small ema (votive plaques) are typically wooden boards about 15 centimeters long and 10 centimeters high. They are usually shaped like houses and decorated with colorful paintings of patterns that have special meanings.

Depending on the design, ema (votive plaques) can have different effects.

You can find ema (votive plaques) for sale at almost any shrine or temple. Write your wish on an ema corresponding to its function, then hang it on the designated wishing wall at the shrine or temple. This is a better way to make a wish to the gods than by praying.

Some shrines buy their ema (votive plaques), while others make them themselves.

The ema (votive plaques) at Hatsuyuki Shrine are standard rectangular in shape, with eaves on top.

However, the pattern on it is also very obvious that it was drawn by Sakura Yuki Chia herself.

Yoshiyuki was able to discover this not only because the ema had patterns he had never seen before, but also because the two ema with the same picture had some differences in the details of the picture.

This is the slight error that occurs in manual drawing.

Ema made by the shrine maiden is considered sacred.

But the price is still very low.

A single ema (votive plaque) sells for only 300 yen.

This amount of money can't even buy half a bowl of udon noodles.

It's clear that Sakura Yuki Chiai really didn't expect to make money selling these things.

They probably felt that using faith to make money was an unacceptable act.

Everything in this organization is being sold at cost price.

If we take into account the time cost of her meticulously painting each ema, then in some ways, it's even a loss.
