Forced to walk in the world of anime

This bolt of lightning caused the Scarlet Devil Mansion's forces to momentarily lose their focus on Chu Xing, instead looking at the sky with a sense of panic.

Flandre looked up at the sky and took a step back, tightly hugging her sister's arm. She asked timidly, "Sister, what is that? I've never felt such a powerful force before!"

"do not know!"

Remilia was also scared at this moment, and wished she could immediately crouch down and cover her head in fear. However, her sister was right next to her, and in order to provide her with support, she couldn't show any unreliable behavior!

Patchouli coughed twice, leaned closer to the imposing young lady, and whispered in her ear, "Remi, I think we can't touch this person. He's very likely a pawn abandoned by some extraterrestrial visitor, but even as a pawn, he's of extremely high status, perhaps protected by some unseen force..."

"Yes, but he's just a expendable pawn!"

Remilia finally straightened her back, adopting the air of a head of the household, and walked towards Chu Xing step by step, trying her best to exude authority... but the result was extremely cute!

Chu Xing was almost melted by the cuteness. Oh my god, why would they make a vampire look like a little girl?

###499. The Beauty of Gensokyo###

"You, state your name!"

Remilia pointed at Chu Xing with her head held high, her tone filled with what she perceived as authority, and commanded him.

Ah this!

Chu Xing was almost moved to tears. Wow, he actually met such an angelic being! He really wanted to touch this vampire classmate's little head. How could this child be so cute?

He looked at Izayoi Sakuya. No wonder someone as capable as the head maid would submit to two little girls. Working at the Scarlet Devil Mansion must be a real treat! With two such comforting young girls by your side, how could there be any pressure or setbacks at work?

Chu Xing was thinking a lot in that instant, so much so that he forgot that the vampire classmate in front of him was asking him a question. This made Remilia feel awkward for a moment, and her expression turned somewhat gloomy. She said, "Hey! It's very impolite not to pay attention when someone is asking you a question."

"Oh!"

Chu Xing finally realized what was happening, secretly wiped away non-existent drool from the corner of his mouth, and said seriously, "My name is Chu Xing. I come from another world. The main reason I came back here is that I was thrown here. You can tell from the way I landed, right? I will be living in this world from now on. Please take care of me in the future."

After saying that, Chu Xing squatted down and stretched out his hand, looking at Remilia with a smile, like a typical bad uncle trying to seduce a little girl!

"... "

Remilia suddenly felt a chill down her spine, which puzzled her. She was already a vampire, so why would she experience this creepy feeling?

Regardless of the circumstances, since others have shown a friendly attitude, she should naturally reciprocate. After all, as a noblewoman, she cannot afford to lose her aristocratic manners.

So, under the resentful, jealous gaze of a certain head maid, Remilia stretched out her delicate little hand, just like her sister's, and tightly grasped Chu Xing's hand.

Is this a man's palm?

Remilia's red eyes blinked twice. Since becoming a vampire, she had forgotten all her previous memories, and the power of her vampire bloodline made it impossible for any man to touch her hand. This rare encounter filled her with a sense of wonder.

So Remilia's handshake lasted a little longer, just like a child's prank! She hoped the other person wouldn't mind.

Chu Xing didn't mind such things at all. On the contrary, he experienced what real skin was when touched by this non-human body. Baby-soft skin could be forgotten! This is what real smoothness is, this is what silky smoothness is, this is what elasticity is!

"Hehe..."

Chu Xing's mind raced for a moment, then he said with a serious expression, "In our world, we hug after shaking hands, but I've heard that the customs here are different, so is that alright...?"

"this…"

Remilia was stunned. Why hadn't this guy mentioned it before? He actually needed a hug! Didn't he know that she, Remilia, was incredibly noble and had never even touched a man's hand before?

However, Remilia thought about it carefully and realized that, not to mention other worlds, even in this world, some regions seem to have a custom of greeting each other with a hug, and some even more outrageous ones require a kiss.

So, Remilia thought for a moment and nodded... Hmm, for some reason, she felt like she was about to be taken advantage of?

But seeing the other person's serious expression and pure eyes, she felt that this person wouldn't lie to her. She thought she should just give him a hug, since it wouldn't hurt her. She said, "Our etiquette is actually quite similar here."

okay!

Chu Xing didn't force himself to restrain himself. He squatted down and, under Izayoi Sakuya's seemingly murderous gaze, hugged Remilia tightly.

Oh oh oh!

Why does he have such a frail body? Why does he not smell of blood despite being a vampire, but instead exude a strange and captivating fragrance?

Good heavens! Chu Xing seems to understand why this place is called Gensokyo now; even the girls are on a different level!

After embracing for about three breaths, the two reluctantly parted.

Wait, both of them are?

Yes, Remilia didn't know why, but she always felt that this man's body had a strange attraction for her, especially his blood, which made her want to lie on Chu Xing's body forever and suck the sweet blood that smelled different from ordinary blood!

Chu Xing was completely unaware that he was being targeted. He was still replaying the strange sensation of that brief moment in his mind. Suddenly, he seemed to understand why non-human sachets often appeared; it turned out that non-human sachets really did smell good!

Cough cough cough, we've gone off-topic, we've gone off-topic.

Back here, the two started a pointless chatter, mainly asking each other where they came from, where they were going, and what their plans were.

What could Chu Xing, a newcomer, possibly do? After a few pleasantries, he readily agreed to work at the Scarlet Devil Mansion! It just so happened that he had destroyed the mansion, and as for compensation, he was penniless. When he arrived, Hatsune Miku had robbed him of everything, leaving him with nothing but a sleeping little dragon.

So, he finally decided to help build the Scarlet Devil Mansion. Not only would he get free food and drinks, but he would also be able to live with such a cute little girl. It was simply wonderful.

Ah, here Chu Xing suddenly remembered that his younger sister was also incredibly cute when she was little. It's a pity that time flies and can never be turned back; the little loli has grown into a graceful young lady. But even as she's grown up, Chu Xi'er's beauty has always remained at its peak, showcasing the ultimate beauty of every age.

Since construction was underway, there was obviously nowhere to stay. The Scarlet Devil Mansion faction eventually decided to stay temporarily at the Hakurei Shrine, otherwise they would have nowhere else to go. All the various youkai had their own territorial instincts, and while they might get along well normally, staying on their own territory for an extended period of time was definitely not an option.

Especially the kappa and tengu on the mountain of monsters, let alone temporarily staying there, even if they just pass by, they will come down and question them properly, which shows how strong their sense of territory is.

...

"Reimu~"

Hearing the call, Reimu Hakurei didn't even look up. She continued drinking the tea she had just brewed, watching the cherry blossoms fall from the cherry tree outside the window, seemingly marveling at the beauty that the falling cherry blossoms created in an instant.

"Reimu~ Why are you ignoring me?"

Yukari Yakumo climbed down from the ceiling, wrapped her arms around Reimu Hakurei, and said with a grin, "I overheard on the way here that some guests are coming to stay with you temporarily. Are you happy?"

"Clam!"

Hearing this, Reimu Hakurei stirred. She looked at Yukari Yakumo in astonishment and asked, "Are you kidding me? Is the Hakurei Shrine a place where just anyone can live?! This represents the highest faith of Gensokyo. It's also the place that protects the Great Barrier! How could anyone possibly live here?!"

"It's those people from the Scarlet Devil Mansion. They brought a lot of money..." Yukari Yakumo said casually.

"Where are we? Have we encountered any monsters blocking our way? I'll go clear the path for them."

Reimu Hakurei grabbed the Extermination Token from behind her and headed down the mountain to greet the Scarlet Devil Mansion crew.

"Pfft!"

Seeing this, Yukari Yakumo couldn't help but laugh. Although she already knew that this generation's shrine maiden was different from others, she still couldn't help but laugh when she saw this!

She said, "No need to greet them, they'll be up soon. However, there's one special person among them you might need to pay a little more attention to..."

"he?"

Reimu Hakurei paused for a moment when she heard the word "he". In Japanese, the pronunciation of "male he" and "female she" are actually different. When she heard Yukari Yakumo say "male he", it meant that one of the people who came up was a man!

"That won't do!"

Reimu Hakurei's face darkened again. Even if she was shameless, she was still a girl! How could she possibly let a man live with her? She was a shrine maiden, not some kind of person with a special profession; she wouldn't let a man live next to her. Wasn't that like inviting a wolf into the house?

###500. Check into Hakurei Shrine###

"No, you can't refuse this!"

Yukari Yakumo waved her fan and said seriously, "You should have seen that thing streaking across the sky earlier, right? That man was that thing. It was sent here by someone from another world. That being is an extremely powerful and terrifying being. Even a slight wisp of pressure emanating from it could instantly destroy the entire Gensokyo—no, this entire world. It's fortunate that being didn't descend upon this world. Otherwise, I wonder if this world would have been completely destroyed in an instant?"

Reimu Hakurei listened, stunned. Finally, her thin lips touched together, and she said, "What are you saying? I can understand each word you say, but why do I not quite understand it when put together? Or is what you're saying a bit too outrageous? I don't think it's very realistic."

"It's not very realistic, but you have to accept that."

Yukari Yakumo twirled her fan in her hand and continued, "We also think it's unrealistic, but it's the very reality. That man was sent here by that terrifying being from another world. Although we don't know why he was sent to our world, and specifically to Gensokyo, we must pay close attention. Who knows if this man possesses any power from that being? If he accidentally unleashes it, the entire Gensokyo will be wiped out. You understand?"

As Yukari Yakumo looked at Reimu Hakurei and carefully uttered each of the last three words, she also tightened her grip on Reimu's neck slightly.

Normally, Yukari Yakumo can play and joke around with Reimu Hakurei, but when faced with a major event that could destroy Gensokyo, she has to show her seriousness. After all, Gensokyo is a very important place, and if Reimu Hakurei messes it up, she is ruthless enough to kill the shrine maiden!

You should know that Yakumo Yukari was first and foremost a great youkai, and only then a youkai sage who got along well with Hakurei Reimu.

"... "

Reimu Hakurei and Yukari Yakumo exchanged a glance for two breaths, then shook off their drowsy appearance and nodded seriously, saying, "Understood, I will keep a closer eye on him."

"Whee!"

Yukari Yakumo smiled again and said playfully, "Then I'll have to trouble Reimu! If you encounter this person with ill intentions who tries to bully you, be sure to tell me. I'll still protect little Reimu!"

Upon hearing this, Reimu Hakurei rolled her eyes at Yukari Yakumo and said, "You're kidding me. You'd be lucky if you didn't end up sending me away."

"Waaaaah, is that how you see me, Reimu? You've really broken my heart!" Yukari Yakumo pretended to cry, then, as if she were truly hurt, she disappeared into a gap in the space!

Reimu could only roll her eyes at this. This kind of scene had happened countless times. She would do this every few days. Anyone who didn't know better would think this old woman was really 17! Sigh, what a disrespectful old woman!

Reimu Hakurei picked up her cup again, sipping the fresh tea slowly. Her gaze was fixed ahead, seemingly waiting, yet also containing a hint of anger and resentment. Only she herself could truly understand her emotions.

Soon after, several heads appeared on the horizon!

Looking at the group of people, and the disheveled man standing near the Scarlet Devil Mansion, Reimu Hakurei sighed inwardly. She'd got work to do. Grabbing her gohei (a type of Japanese scepter), she strode forward with a smile to greet these somewhat displeased guests.

...

Next came the arrangement of personnel. The Hakurei Shrine was neither too big nor too small. Apart from the dusty storage room at the back and the main worship hall with only a donation box at the main entrance, there were four other rooms at the back.

One is the kitchen, and the other is a hall specifically for receiving guests. In Gensokyo, this place usually becomes a gathering place for youkai to have a meal! The other two are Reimu Hakurei's sleeping room and a room used as a guest room.

However, the room used as a guest room rarely gets any guests, as most gatherings and events are held in the main reception hall, and the yokai don't go to other rooms. Although these yokai can be mischievous at times, they know they can't wander around in someone else's house, and the Hakurei Shrine has a bunch of tools specifically for exorcising yokai. If you accidentally open a cabinet and a bunch of yokai-slaying needles fall out and get pinned to the ground, that would be an undeserved disaster.

It was impossible for such a group of people to stay in the same room, especially since Chu Xing was a male, making it even more awkward to have everyone share a room. Therefore, the main banquet hall was used for the youkai from the Scarlet Devil Mansion, and the guest rooms at the back were specially cleared out for Chu Xing to stay in alone.

Ah!

Reimu Hakurei really didn't want to open that guest room, because she hadn't tidied it up in a long time; it was a mess and covered in dust.

Originally, she planned to let this man do the work himself, but the wealthy and powerful Scarlet Devil Mansion lady simply used his status as her family's construction worker as an excuse to give him a bag of money and make Reimu Hakurei complete the job herself.

hiss!

Although she really didn't want to do it and wanted to be a useless person, this bright red banknote... well! Who told everyone to be busy making money? And this amount was enough for her to live a life of luxury and have parties for a while, so it no longer became a job she couldn't do.

Inside the shrine, Reimu Hakurei wasn't the only one sighing. Leaning against a large tree, Chu Xing watched the joyous and cheerful atmosphere in the banquet hall, gazed at the starry sky, and sighed, "Sigh, I always feel so stifled. I'm surrounded by beautiful women, but I can't do anything. I'm terrified of being discovered and accidentally killed. I should have found a time when I wasn't weak or lacked fighting skills, at least then I wouldn't be suppressed by others. It's so miserable here!"

"Huh? Big brother, what are you saying?" A childish voice rang out behind Chu Xing.

Because Chu Xing was too engrossed in sighing, or perhaps because the other person's presence itself was somewhat questionable, Chu Xing didn't notice the other person behind him at first. Instead, he slowly and deliberately said, "I was saying that my life is miserable... sigh!"
