Aside from concern, this is also something that Shiraki Jun must consider.

Even in its current state, the Zashiki-warashi still maintains a very friendly attitude towards humans.

But what would Zashiki-warashi do if Kiritani Kouki lost his chance to go to school tomorrow because he couldn't afford the tuition?

They might use demonic power and take a huge risk, right?

To avoid such a situation, all of these factors must be taken into account.

"I haven't thought about that yet," Zashiki-warashi said hesitantly, startled.

"Then, sir, would you like to work part-time at our shrine?" Shiraki Shun asked, looking into the eyes of the Zashiki-warashi.

"Based on your six hundred years of demonic power, the shrine can offer you three times your current hourly wage, and it's not too far from home, so it won't interfere with taking care of Hanghui's daily life."

"Although we cannot pay your pension insurance, there will be overtime pay, transportation allowance, and year-end bonus."

What is your opinion?

"Is this really possible?" Zashiki-warashi asked with some surprise.

“Of course,” Shiraki Shun smiled. “If possible, please come to the shrine tomorrow.”

"Oh, I know the exact location of the shrine. You can have me take you there."

The Zashiki-warashi smiled happily like a little girl and nodded.

"I'll discuss it with Hanghui after he wakes up. If he agrees, then I'll trouble Priest Baimu."

"Alright, then I'll take my leave." Bai Mujun nodded with a smile.

"Huh? Didn't Priest Shiraki wait for Hanghui to wake up? Hanghui hasn't thanked you yet," Zashiki-warashi exclaimed in surprise.

Bai Mujun waved his hand: "It was nothing, there's nothing to thank me for."

"Besides, once Hanghui wakes up, he will definitely have a lot to say to you. I would only be a third wheel here, so I won't make a fool of myself."

"Uh," Zashiki-warashi blushed slightly, realizing that what Shiraki Shun said made sense.

She then bowed deeply and said, "Please wait a moment, Priest Whitewood."

Shiraki Shun smiled as he prepared to use his escape technique.

Suddenly remembering something, he spoke up and gave instructions.

"By the way, if Hanghui lacks motivation to study after waking up, please let me know."

"I will give him an academic amulet."

Unknown places.

Inside a room that was also pure white.

However, the size of this room is dozens of times larger than the room that Shiramu Jun just destroyed.

Although it's called a room, it looks more like a combat base.

In the middle of the base, there are rows of instruments with countless funnels, which look very sophisticated.

On the right side of the room, there were many surveillance screens.

And beneath each monitoring screen.

There's a monster wearing headphones in each one, busy with its head down.

The total number is estimated to be nearly one hundred.

At that moment, a monster hurriedly took off its headphones and reported loudly.

"Report, Base Station No. 72 has just lost contact!"

"Traces of a priest have been detected near the base station!"

"I'm afraid we've been attacked by the priests!"

Upon hearing this, the monsters in the base immediately erupted in an uproar.

"How is that possible? How did the priest discover the base station?"

"That sir said that with the priest's abilities, it would be impossible for him to detect our presence!"

"If all 72 base stations are destroyed, aren't we in great danger too?"

"I'm going back to my hometown to get married next month, so nothing can go wrong."

"All demons, be quiet!"

The next moment, a hoarse voice drowned out the noisy discussion.

A tree spirit with skin as dry as tree bark and covered in green branches appeared in the base.

An incredibly powerful demonic energy slowly emanated from it.

The terrifying aura immediately silenced all the demons.

Knowing the strength of this tree spirit, it was among the top-ranked beings even among the great demons of the base.

The tree spirit slowly scanned the area and said in a deep voice.

"Don't panic."

"Prepare to contact that person immediately and hear their plans."

"Yes!" The demons finally snapped out of their shock.

That's when he realized that he also had powerful backers.

If that lord is willing to lend a hand

Even a priest is nothing to fear!

Thinking of this, the demons immediately began to frantically operate.

A call was made to an encrypted communication frequency band.

"Zizi"

After the noisy static, a slightly dissatisfied, crisp voice came from the other party's communication frequency.

"what?"

"Do you even realize you've disturbed my rest?"

Upon hearing this, the tree spirit's withered face revealed a fawning expression, and it said respectfully.

"Sir, I didn't mean to bother you."

"But just now, base station number seventy-two was destroyed by that bastard priest."

"What should we do next? Please advise, sir!"

"A priest? That priest from Tokyo?" The woman on the other end suddenly became interested.

“It is him.” The tree spirit nodded.

"Oh? He really dares to do that! I'm actually quite interested in meeting him!" the woman said with great interest.

"Unfortunately, I'm busy with other things right now and don't have time to deal with him."

The tree spirit hesitated for a moment, then tentatively asked, "Then, sir, are we just going to let the matter of base station number seventy-two go like this?"

"It's just a base station. We gave it to him once he found it." The woman's voice curled her lip. "What more do you want?"

"You want me to fight a human?"

"That's way too much of a bullying!"

"How about this, you choose a demon and teach him a lesson?" the woman suggested after thinking for a moment. "That should satisfy your anger, right?"

Upon hearing this, the base fell silent.

This

Do you wish for our deaths?

The tree demon's face twitched slightly.

It quickly replied, "Then, sir, I won't disturb your rest any longer."

The communication was then cut off.

"Hello? Hello?"

"Ugh, really, a bunch of ill-mannered monsters, they're not worthy of communicating with me at all!"

On the other end, the woman's voice was clearly unhappy that the call had been disconnected.

She grumbled a couple of times in annoyance, then frowned and muttered under her breath.

"A Shinto priest in Tokyo?"

"I'll take a look after I finish what I'm doing."

Anyway, it'll be in the next few days.

Thinking of this, she was clearly angry and said through gritted teeth.

"Nearly a thousand years have passed, and I have finally waited for this day!"

"I will wash away the humiliation of that year—no, I will repay it in full!"

"You'd better wash your neck clean and just wait for me!"

"Damn Tsukuyomi!"

Chapter 214 The One Who Touched the Moon

After leaving the Kiritani family, Shiraki Shun did not immediately set off to return to the shrine.

Instead, he used a teleportation technique to arrive above Nagano City, looking down at the entire city.

A vast and boundless divine kingdom descended, its outline faintly overlapping with the city's silhouette.

They thoroughly investigated the entire city of Nagano once again.

The kingdom was only taken back after it was confirmed that no such white buildings or facilities existed in the city.

Shiraki Shun certainly had his reasons for doing this.
