My daily life of exorcising demons and falling in love with a witch.

"Phew...I'm so full!"

Erina patted her belly and breathed a very satisfied sigh of relief.

"Great, Miss, you've finally found another dish you like." Yixing glanced at the sausage cart, and although he was happy, he still sighed with some regret: "It's a pity they only sell sausages. You can't always eat this as a meal."

"And even the most delicious food gets boring easily!" Erina agreed. "That's why I need to bring Yoshiyuki to cook for me. He can cook a different meal every day for a week—it's so useful!"

"Master, what if I'm not here and can't cook for you?" Yixing asked deliberately.

"Hmph, you don't have any family, what could possibly be wrong with you! You're not allowed to leave without my permission." Erina snorted, took out a dumpling from her bag, and picked it up. "Even if you really have to leave, I'm going with you!"

"Yes, yes." Yoshiyuki gave a wry smile and decided to take the young lady away from Ueno Park and back to Akihabara to continue shopping.

However, at that moment, Yixing's phone received a LINE notification sound.

He opened it, took a look, and said this.

"Ms. Fujimori said that she has made contact with the Kuroba Group. The Metropolitan Police Department has decided to support your operation plan. They have selected a reliable convenience store as the location to sell Yoda sake. The plainclothes police will be here soon, and they want us to meet up to discuss some details."

"Wow, that's efficient! The sooner we catch Shuten-dōji, the better! As for shopping, we can do that later!" Erina rubbed her hands excitedly. "Quick, let's go take a look!"

Yoshiyuki and Erina turned back along the same route.

On the way, she couldn't help but praise the taste of the grilled sausage again.

"This is so delicious! How can it taste so good? Do they have the ability to transform spiritual energy into delicious food?"

"That's quite possible." Yixing recalled the demonic aura he had just detected and said, "Speaking of which, wasn't that girl carrying the bladed bow a demon? Or was she possessed by a demon? The demonic aura around her was strange, almost imperceptible."

"None of those? That demonic energy is fused into her blood; the blood on her body has been completely replaced."

"Is that so... then her spiritual power might have come from this." Yi Xing frowned slightly upon hearing this. "But she's still alive, that's really remarkable."

One way to give spiritual power to someone who has none is through "blood transfusion".

A ritual is required, in which a person's blood is drained using magic and their life is temporarily suspended, and then specially treated demon blood is injected into them.

This person usually dies on the spot, or is tortured to death later due to the body's rejection of the demon's blood.

However, as long as one has strong resilience and survives, one can obtain considerable spiritual power.

The body's adverse reactions will also become relatively stable due to changes in hematopoietic organs and immune function.

If the blood of the human and the demon are highly compatible, there may be no side effects whatsoever.

People who have undergone a blood transfusion will no longer age, but they will go to two extremes.

One option is to have a short lifespan, and the other is to achieve an almost infinite lifespan.

Many forces that fought against demons and evil spirits, including the Yoda family, often used such cruel methods to increase their fighting strength in ancient times.

However, in today's society, since the threat of demons is no longer so great, this method is rarely used.

"Speaking of blood transfusions..." Erina suddenly remembered something very important, coughed very seriously, and then said, "Yoshiki! Make me some spicy hot pot tonight. The kind with lots of blood tofu."

"No problem." Yixing said, but couldn't help but complain, "But Miss, you added too little chili. It's almost not spicy at all. To truly enjoy the fun of mala tang, you need to add more chili. At least make it mildly spicy."

"No way! I can't even eat a single bite of what you consider mildly spicy!" Erina snorted. "Why are you so good at eating spicy food? Sometimes I feel like you're just like a Chinese person!"

Yi Xing hesitated to respond to those words for a moment.

He could only end the conversation with this sentence: "Miss, not all Chinese people can eat spicy food."

Japanese people don't have the habit of eating spicy food, and Erina is no exception.

Even though tolerance for chili peppers can be cultivated, Erina can't handle even slightly spicy food, so Yoshiyuki has almost given up on this attempt. When he makes hot pot for her, he always makes a half-and-half pot.

He ate the red soup, while Erina ate the white soup.

There was actually a little incident regarding eating a hot pot with two broths.

The hot pot with two broths originated in China, and some Chinese taboos still apply in Japan, but Erina was unaware of this.

For example, when eating a hot pot with two broths, you shouldn't eat the clear broth. Otherwise, a ghost might sit opposite you and eat the spicy broth.

The stronger one's spiritual power, the more likely they are to encounter this situation.

Erina is undoubtedly one of the strongest.

After Yixing set up the hot pot for her that time, he was called away by his master because of something else. Erina waited for a long time but he didn't come back, so she ate by herself first.

As she was eating, a disheveled evil spirit suddenly sat down opposite her and started eating with her. It even stole the "pissing beef balls" she had prepared for Yixing. Enraged, she grabbed the ghost's head and shoved it into the hot pot to physically exorcise the evil spirit.

But she didn't tell Yixing about this directly, which led to him finding the chili oil taste strange when he finally came back to eat hot pot, and he even got diarrhea afterwards—probably because fragments of evil spirits had dissolved in it.

What made Yoshiyuki both amused and exasperated was that Erina's favorite Chinese dish was Mapo Tofu.

I especially like to scoop a spoonful and pour it over rice to eat together.

This is a favorite among many Japanese people.

The bright red chili oil soaks the white, elastic tofu, and when paired with plump, fragrant rice, it's simply divine.

The problem is that although it looks red, Yixing thinks it has almost no spiciness and is mostly sweet.

For Erina, this was already quite an exciting experience.

I often feel so hot from the spiciness that I have to keep panting and drink ice water or milk to "relieve the pain".

"I feel like my lips are going to swell up from the spiciness!" Erina exclaimed, fanning her mouth as she looked at Yoshiyuki, whose food was sprinkled with chili powder. "Hey, Yoshiyuki, how come you're okay?!"

That little head held a great deal of confusion.

Afterwards, she even shed tears.

Because the young lady wanted to play Persona 5, which she had been eagerly anticipating, after finishing her meal, she decided to first use some eye drops to soothe her dry eyes caused by playing too much video games.

Of course, Yixing did it for him. As a result, he forgot to wash his hands.

The capsaicin residue on her hand touched her eyelid, causing Erina to scream in pain.
