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

"By the way," Erina pointed to a crowd gathered not far away, "what's going on over there? There are so many people!"

"Oh, it's a new member from a currently popular JK idol group, who's preparing for their street debut performance."

Murayama pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses and slowly explained.

"The newcomer has been an idol before, but this is the first time she's performed on stage with her real face. She always performed wearing a mask before, so nobody knew what she looked like. Now that she's revealed her face, she's quite stunning... Maybe she was in the wrong group from the start. That look is a huge advantage, it's such a waste to cover it up."

"Wow, Murayama, how do you know so much? Are you a fan?" Yusuke said with an expression of discovery. "I didn't know you had this kind of interest."

"It's really rare to see an idol otaku this age!" Erina said with a mischievous grin. "Grandpa is really ahead of his time! I wish my grandpa wasn't so old-fashioned!"

"Young master, priestess, please don't misunderstand," Murayama explained earnestly. "The scene was even more lively just now. There was a group of men wearing headbands and ita-clothes with pictures of their idols on them, shouting cheers. After they finished shouting, they started chatting excitedly. That's when I heard all that."

"I see." Yusuke nodded.

"Wait a minute?! This isn't fair!" Yoshiyuki couldn't help but complain, "Why did you believe Murayama's explanation so readily, but my clarification is as good as saying nothing at all?"

"Don't worry about such trivial things! By the way, aren't those the masked idols we saw a while ago?" Erina leaned against Yoshiyuki and turned to ask him.

"Yes, Miss. They were on strike and protesting in the electronics district plaza. I don't know how it went." Yoshiyuki said, then looked at the growing crowd and remarked, "Anyway, the one who switched jobs must have gotten a better opportunity."

The three of them quickly got into the car.

This type of vehicle has five rows of seats. There is a small table in front of each row of seats.

Except for the first row, the remaining four rows can be rotated to allow two people to face each other.

At the same time, the screen can be lowered and the curtains drawn to create a private space.

Now Yoshiyuki and Erina are sitting facing each other in the last two rows, while Yusuke is sitting in the passenger seat.

"I really can't get used to this kind of car." Yixing took the coffee from the car, blew on it to cool it down, and complained, "It's a bit too long."

"Longer is so much better! I love long ones!" Erina smugly swung her legs slightly. "It's best to stay away from that scumbag bro!"

"Haha, Erina's right! It's definitely more convenient to be further away!"

Yusuke's hearty laughter came from the passenger seat.

He then continued.

"I've lowered the screen for you! It'll be much better soundproofing this way, and we won't be able to see what you're doing over there. But don't make a mess of it, it'll be hard to clean. Also, be mindful of the time, Sakurajima Academy is only a 15-minute drive away! Choose your activities carefully, so you don't miss out."

"You talk too much nonsense, you old bastard!" Erina retorted. "Just kidding, of course I know exactly what we're going to play! I'm a pro!"

"???"

After listening to the speech, Yi Xing was filled with questions. He was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say—any explanation seemed pale and powerless; the saying "the more you try to explain, the worse it gets" perfectly described his current state.

Yusuke gave an embarrassed smile, said nothing more, and simply pressed the remote control.

Erina watched as the screen gradually lowered, then giggled and plopped down next to Yoshiyuki, bringing her face close to his and whispering, "Hey, Yoshiyuki... now it's just the two of us here, okay? What should we do... you know what to do, right?"

"M-Miss, you're getting too close." Yixing's heart raced, and he hurriedly looked away. "Besides, what did you say you wanted to play? Isn't that inappropriate? We're master and servants, we can't..."

"Huh?! What are you saying, you scoundrel! Don't you want to play games with me?" Erina took out her Switch and looked at him with a strange expression.

"Oh, it's this game!"

As Yixing watched Mario Kart 8 start up on the screen, he subconsciously let out a wail-like rant.

His original meaning was, "It turns out it's this 'game'."

Erina seemed to think that Yoshiyuki didn't want to play this game.

"What! You have a problem with Mario Kart?" Erina snorted, shoving one of the controllers into Yoshiyuki's hand. "There aren't many choices that only take fifteen minutes to play! If you get tired of it, just bear with it!"

In fact, he quite enjoyed playing with horse-drawn carriages, especially after using a tortoise shell to blast the young lady away; it was incredibly satisfying.

It's even more amusing when Erina, who can't handle being teased, chases and plays with him using dumplings.

But now, playing this game, Yixing finds it utterly boring.

Although it was somewhat expected, life suddenly became boring.

The sky outside the window lost its color, turning from azure to gray.

The young lady was now leaning against Yixing's chest, with her entire body weight resting on him.

Her attention was completely focused on the game console screen. Every now and then, she excitedly discussed the game with him.

"Look, look! I successfully used the shortcut! Isn't that amazing! I'm number one now!"

"Ugh... Ugh! Damn it! That Mario is so annoying! He overtook me again!"

"Who threw that banana peel?! That was close!"

"Hey? You found a turtle shell? Great! Quick, take down that guy over there!"

"Hey, you scumbag servant! What are you doing! I told you to throw him, not me!"

Yoshiyuki eavesdropped outside the door and found that Erina was very quiet when playing games alone. She wasn't the type to get emotional and shout while playing games by herself.

He only becomes so talkative when he's playing with others—especially when he's with Yixing.

Even when the two of them were secretly playing games late at night, her mouth still couldn't stop talking.

Yoshiyuki always enjoyed chatting with Erina while playing games.

Even if there are some games he's not actually interested in, as long as the young lady likes them, he'll extend that affection to everything related to her.

However... Yi Xing was too preoccupied with his own thoughts to chat.

Erina seemed to have noticed this as well, but she didn't say anything. She simply sat down in Yoshiyuki's lap without making a sound.

He held the controller in one hand and crossed his arms, gently embracing the young lady's chest.

The faint, fresh scent emanating from her, and her smooth, snow-white hair, gave Yixing a very bold idea—what would the young lady look like if she shaved her head?
