Death: This Death is a bit unorthodox.

Chapter 358 Let's Talk It Out

On the other side, in the kitchen of Kiryuki's bedroom.

Aozaki Mayuki's studies continued.

Moreover, since he spends most of his daytime time on Shutara Senjumaru, Aozaki Mayuki is pushing himself even harder, planning to devote all his nighttime energy to it.

Beside him, Kiryuki was still fulfilling his duty as a teacher by staying by his side.

During her studies, Aozaki Mayuki devoted most of her energy to secretly observing Hikifune Kiryu.

He originally thought that Kiryuki would definitely care about what happened today.

To cater to Shutara Senjumaru's preferences, what happened when they were alone together, and her strange changes...

Given Kiryu's lack of patience and his actually quite innocent nature, Aozaki Mayuki thought tonight would definitely be a difficult night.

But in reality, Kiryuki didn't say a word after entering the kitchen.

Kiryuu, of course, couldn't be completely indifferent, but he patiently endured it.

This made Aozaki Mayuki look at him with new respect; he was far superior to a certain senior who only knew how to self-destruct!

Time slipped by unnoticed, and soon it was late at night.

As usual, Aozaki Mayuki prepared to end her study time for the day.

However, unlike in the past, Kirio Hikifune raised objections this time.

She said softly:

"It's okay for me to sleep late; sleeping is just a habit I developed in the past."

Aozaki Mayuki paused for a moment, then realized what she meant and replied with a smile:

"Ah...I see."

The members of Squad Zero possess near-eternal life, and sleep is more of a habit than a necessity for them.

Both Kiryu and Shutara Senjumaru had mentioned this to him.

Aozaki Mayuki, who had been indifferent to "eternal life," suddenly realized the truth.

No wonder Kiryuki Hikifune was unusually quiet today; it turns out she'd been waiting for this moment.

Aozaki Mayuki's lips curled up slightly as she teased:

"I almost forgot! How about we do what we did yesterday and give each other a kiss that's just for you?"

"..."

For just a moment, Kiryuki's beautiful and captivating eyes narrowed slightly, and a very conflicted expression appeared on his face.

None of this escaped Aozaki Mayuki's keen eyes.

However, this allure is clearly far from enough for Kirio Hikifune today.

She shook her head firmly, her tone resolute:

"I want to stay with you, I don't want to leave you."

"...Why are you so persistent? We have plenty of time. Kiryu, you can relax a bit."

Aozaki Mayuki gently stroked her hair, a doting smile on his lips.

Nevertheless, Kirio Hikifune remains stubbornly opinionated today.

Her bright, large eyes looked straight up at Aozaki Mayuki, her gaze revealing utmost seriousness.

"I also need to make up for the time we spend alone together."

"I'm going to say this softly, with a hint of stubbornness in my voice," said Kiryu.

"Ah... I see."

Aozaki Mayuki's smile grew even gentler.

As a girlfriend, Yizhoutong has grown up and become more affectionate.

Because he spent a lot of time with Shutara Senjumaru during the day, he wanted to make up for the time that should have been his own at night.

This is the true intention of Hikifune Kiryu.

For this purpose, Kiryu even gritted his teeth and gave up the kiss he had always longed for from his lover.

This kind of dedication impressed Aozaki Mayuki greatly.

Since things have come to this point, I, a grown man, have even less reason to refuse.

"Just like yesterday, I'm still afraid of the dark today, so I'll have to borrow your bed again."

"Ah."

Kiryuu's lips curled up slightly, and that faint smile seemed to possess an irresistible charm that made people fall for him.

After this lovely and generous older sister offered to keep him company, they spent several sweet hours together.

However, as night gradually faded and a new day dawned, everything returned to calm.

It's almost time to prepare breakfast.

Aozaki Mayuki hugged Hikifune Kiryu tightly, admiring the warm sunlight streaming in through the window.

"It's another beautiful morning. Kiryu is awake too. It's time to get up!" he said softly.

Kiryu slowly blinked, glancing around with a somewhat confused look as he lay on him, and quickly understood the current situation.

Realizing that she had once again fallen asleep and missed the precious time with Aozaki Mayuki, a clear look of frustration appeared on her face.

Even when she's a little dazed, she's still adorable.

Aozaki Mayuki chuckled softly and decided to get up and head to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

However, when he tried to leave, he found that the beautiful woman above him was still lying there quietly, without making a sound.

Kiryuki raised her head and gazed at him with her large purple eyes, which sparkled with a childlike grievance and willfulness.

Then, as if trying to make up for last night's loss, Kiryuu pouted and said:

"You promised me a kiss last night, but you haven't delivered... So, is there any compensation?"

Kiryu looked serious, as if she would never get up unless Aozaki Mayuki agreed.

Faced with Kiryu's helpless expression, Aozaki Mayuki smiled wryly.

"When you shook your head, wasn't that a rejection?"

Aozaki Mayuki didn't ask such a question out of tact.

Instead, she reached out her hands and gently lifted Kiryu's body, raising it so that their faces could get closer together.

Aozaki Mayuki looked tenderly at Hikifune Kiryu and said softly:

"...Yes, yes, yes, if Kiryu-sama has spoken, then of course we should provide compensation."

After saying that, he gently stroked Yizhou Tongsheng's smooth cheek with one hand.

Kiryu obediently closed his eyes, a happy smile on his face.

"Um……"

As their lips met, Kirio Hikifune let out a satisfied sigh, awkwardly responding to Mayuki Aozaki's kiss.

Then, when their lips parted, Kiryuki's face turned bright red, and he kept pursing his lips, looking somewhat nervous and shy.

At the same time, her body unconsciously twisted, as if trying to hide her inner turmoil.

"Little...True...I'm going to take a shower first."

Kiryuki's voice trembled slightly, as if he was trying his best to control his inner excitement.

She walked briskly towards the bathroom, the wooden floor beneath her feet making a clattering sound like light drumbeats.

Her delicate bare feet made a pleasant sound as they stepped on the floor.

As the sound of rushing water came from the bathroom, the whole world seemed to quiet down.

After Aozaki Mayuki prepared breakfast.

Yizhou Tongsheng has already washed up and tidied up.

Shutara Senjumaru, who arrived right on time, showed no abnormalities.

They were all the same as usual.

The atmosphere among the three of them was much calmer than at the beginning, and they finished breakfast together.

After finishing with the dishes, Aozaki Mayuki looked at the two sisters chatting and laughing on the sofa and scratched her head.

"I'll go to Phoenix Palace in a few days to see if there's anything I need to prepare. I'll be back before lunchtime."

After saying that, he left the living room under the watchful eyes of the two beautiful women and returned to his room, which he had never entered at night before.

However, he did not go into the room, but waited by the corridor.

Less than ten minutes later, the crisp sound of wooden clogs clattering came from the stairs.

Aozaki Mayuki turned her head and saw that the embarrassing senior was slowly walking down the stairs.

Her hair was neatly secured with gold hair accessories, exuding the air of a noblewoman as always.

The idiot senior looked at Aozaki Mayuki with a serious expression, his eyes revealing a hint of solemnity and seriousness.

She began to speak:

"Little Zhenyue, I have something to tell you."

With an expression that suggested he was about to commit suicide for love, Shutara Senjumaru stared intently at him.

Chapter 359 Enraged

Aozaki Mayuki brought Shutara Senjumaru into the room.

However, Aozaki Mayuki's room didn't even have a place to receive guests.
