Shota is surrounded by monsters!

Mashiro nodded and released her hands from her head, but her silver-white ahoge suddenly pointed to a certain place in Kyoto.

"..."

Mashiro quickly pressed down her ahoge (cowlick), knowing that it would be too much if she put it in the wrong spot again.

"Never mind that." After saying this to Mashiro, Rea turned to the maid who had been following her and instructed, "Let's go back to Kyoto."

"Yes!"

The head maid agreed and then made a phone call. Less than five minutes later, with a loud noise, a helicopter slowly descended from the sky.

"They're gone, Mashiro."

Rea pulled Mashiro into the cabin, then helped her put on her earmuffs before boarding the helicopter and flying to Kyoto...

"This city is really depressing."

Some time later, Rea appeared on the top floor of a luxurious building in Kyoto.

This is the Sanka family's property in Kyoto. As one of Japan's top conglomerates, they own properties in most cities. As the sole heir of the Sanka family, Rea naturally enjoys a privileged status and the most attentive service.

"Young Miss... needs..."

"No need, you must all be tired, so take a rest today."

After dismissing all the maids, only Rea and Mashiro remained.

"Hey……"

Seeing that everyone else had finally left, Rea's aura of being a young lady completely crumbled in an instant. She jumped up and pounced on the soft bed beside her, then hugged her pillow tightly and muttered:

"Shota-kun is such an idiot."

Running away from home because of that kind of thing is just absurd, isn't it?

Rei was furious. Once she caught Shota, she was determined to teach him a lesson.

"Remi..."

Mashiro walked over carrying a bottle of juice and poked Rea's waist with her finger, only to find that Rea didn't seem to notice.

"Let her rest. She's been tired these past few days."

Huang Quan's figure appeared behind Zhen Shiro and said, "Even if the body doesn't need rest, the spirit will get tired."

"Yellow Springs Mulberry..."

Rea heard Yomi's voice, but didn't raise her head. She kept her head buried in the pillow and said weakly, "I'm fine, it's just... it's been too long since I drank Shota-kun's blood."

"..."

Huang Quan paused for a moment, shook his head, and then said, "If you really can't hold back, isn't there still the blood bank?"

As a vampire, drinking blood is essential, and Rea, who hadn't tasted Shota's delicious blood for nearly ten days, naturally fell into a slump. After all, she was still in her rebirth stage, and her dependence on blood would be significant.

"But... if it's not Shota's blood, I have absolutely no interest..."

Rea muttered a complaint under her breath, "Where the hell are you, Shota-kun...?"

"However, this city..."

Huang Quan knew that this topic would never end, so he changed the subject and said, "When did it become like this?"

Huang Quan had already noticed that even during the day, he could move freely in this city, because this city had become a true city of monsters.

"Shota-kun, you didn't come to Kyoto because you guessed it would turn out like this, did you?"

Although she harbored some resentment towards Shota, Rea still wanted to regard him as a hero.

"My brother would probably run far away."

Mashiro suddenly joined their conversation, seemingly recalling when she was still disguised as a water droplet, and said, "My brother always ran away by hiding on his father's back with his tail between his legs."

"Speaking of which, Mashiro and Shota rarely talk to us about their past."

Huang Quan seemed to think for a moment, then asked Mashiro, "What have you encountered in Europe before?"

"This... a dragon bigger than a mountain! There's lava everywhere, and it's even been to the Arctic! There's an incredibly powerful dead man there!"

Mashiro's description was clearly not very accurate, but she still said, "I remember my brother stayed at these two families' houses for a while..."

"Huh? A friend?"

"I don't know. Anyway, they are all very, very capable people."

Mashiro shook her head, then said, "But it seems like my brother has a good relationship with them; they often feed him."

"It must be an incredibly powerful monster."

Huang Quan sighed. Speaking of Japanese legends, apart from a few great monsters, there's nothing else worth mentioning. Moreover, those great monsters wouldn't be considered invincible in other places. But that's for the best, otherwise this land would truly be devastated.

"Hey, Mashiro-chan."

Rea finally perked up a bit because of the interesting topic and asked, "What kind of person is Shota-kun's father?"

"Hmm...is it scary?"

"Really? But Shota isn't scary at all."

"Because that guy is an idiot."

The three women started chatting, each taking turns to say something.

"Miss, there are guests downstairs looking for you. Would you like to bring them up?"

"Hmm? Guests? If they're from my father's side, then forget it."

At this moment, Rei didn't want to deal with any relatives.

"No, she said she's your friend, her name is Senjougahara."

"Senjougahara?"

Rei glanced at the other two with some surprise before replying, "Yes, bring them up."

In the end, three people came before Rea.

Senjougahara Hitagi, Boa Hancock, and...

"This whole thing is my fault."

When Shinobu Meme saw Rea, she immediately bent down and apologized to her, saying, "I'm sorry that you were in danger, young man."

"Who are you, young man?"

Rea was initially wary of Oshino Meme, but when she heard him say "in danger," a bad feeling arose in her heart.

"Kousaka-kun has been captured by Hagoromo-Gitsune."

Senjougahara said with a serious expression, "The situation is very bad right now. We can't even be sure if he's alive or dead..."

"impossible!"

Rea retorted somewhat vehemently, "Shota-kun will definitely be alright, because I can feel it..."

"Big, Big Sister..."

The Snake Princess weakly tried to say something, but finding that everyone else was completely ignoring her, she could only sigh and shut her mouth.

"Don't get agitated, Rei."

Huang Quan patted Rea on the shoulder, winked at Senjougahara, and asked, "What exactly happened?"

"Let me explain in detail."

At this moment, Shinobu Meme was no longer in the mood for joking and told the whole story. Of course, he only said that he hoped Shota could help him deal with Hagoromo Gitsune, without specifying how to deal with Hagoromo Gitsune.

Of course, he also exaggerated Shota's amazing performance at Sokokuji Temple, making that battle seem earth-shattering—this wasn't a lie, at least this level of monster battle hadn't happened in Japan for a long time.

However, he did not forget to acknowledge his mistakes.

Mashiro glared angrily at Oshino Meme, as if she wanted to devour her. Meanwhile, Rea was unable to accept the reality of Shota being defeated and imprisoned, and slumped helplessly to the ground.

"Don't panic."

Upon hearing this news, only Huang Quan remained calm. She looked at Shinobu Meme and said, "You didn't just come here to apologize, did you?"

"Yes, of course."

Shinobu smiled mysteriously and said, "Although I already have a plan, there are still some details to consider beforehand, and the three of you are the most familiar with these details."

"Please just tell me if there's anything I can help with."

Upon hearing this, Rea finally came to her senses and said, "Even if I had to exchange my life for Shota-kun, I would..."

Don't be so pessimistic.

Shinobu sighed and said, "I've already hurt Xiao Ge once, I can't hurt him and the people around him a second time."

Chapter 147. Another... Hagoromo Gitsune?

—This guy…

Shinobu, who had been observing the other person, also expressed her doubts, saying, "Could it be that there are two souls inside him?"

—No, rather than two souls, it's more accurate to say that both her memories and soul are somewhat strange.

Shota replied quietly, "However, this is also our opportunity."

Although he didn't know why, the way Hagoromo Gitsune occasionally acted did give Shota an opportunity to take advantage of her. He knew that Hagoromo Gitsune wasn't the kind of person who would pretend to have amnesia to tease him.

"Waaah..."

Shota let out a muffled groan to test the other's reaction, while Hagoromo Gitsune seemed even more surprised, suddenly standing up from the black pool...

"what……"

Seemingly surprised to find herself completely naked, Hagoromo Gitsune let out a soft gasp. But considering that there seemed to be no one around, she didn't dwell on it. She simply covered her private parts slightly with her hands and hurriedly ran to Shota.

"That's...too much."

Her eyes were filled with sympathy. She reached out and stroked Shota's body, only to find that his mouth seemed to be sewn shut by something.

"Please wait a moment..."

Hagoromo Gitsune looked around, seemingly searching for something to relieve Shota's pain, but clearly, there was nothing there...

"What should I do?"
