"Stop playing dumb with me. Tell me, how many girls have you actually slept with? Have you already won over Raphiel?"

"No, I'm still single," Tsuchimikado Fuyu said calmly.

Although there are two who seem like potential romantic partners, none of them have actually formed a relationship yet.

"Ah, you dare to say that? Boss, please, teach me a few tricks. I don't need too many girls, just enough to win over Senior Fennel."

Seeing Isshiki Makoto's sudden change in expression, now looking pleading, Tsuchimikado Fuyu was speechless and said helplessly, "Even if I wanted to teach him, I wouldn't know how."

Isshiki Makoto looked at Tsuchimikado Fuyu with a mournful expression, "Forget it, you'd better be careful not to go too far. Being too much of a scumbag won't end well."

"Don't worry, a machete can't be hit by a machete. The experienced driver is very reliable."

"A hatchet?" Isshiki Makoto looked at Tsuchimikado Fuyu with a blank expression, not knowing what the hatchet reference was.

"Alright, stop thinking about that. You should focus on yourself. Senior Fennel isn't so easy to win over," Tsuchimikado Fuyu said, shaking his head.

"But I don't know what to do either. It seems like Fennel-senpai can perfectly avoid these kinds of things and can't receive my signals at all. Otherwise, I wouldn't have asked you for help," Isshiki Makoto said, distressed.

After returning from Takanashi Rikka's house, Isshiki Makoto did take the initiative to chat with Mayday Kurenai online.

However, Fennel's reply on May 7th was too slow, and she completely ignored some obvious hints, leaving him wondering if Fennel was just naturally naive or if she wasn't interested in him anymore.

……

After a while, the women came over. Their expressions were all different; some were smiling, some were sad, and some were shy. But apart from the black cat, Tsuchimikado Fuyu couldn't understand the meaning behind the expressions of the others.

As for the black cat's happy smile, it's quite obvious that she must have managed to snag a good opportunity.

As for the others, it's hard to guess whether Tsuchimikado Fuyu participated or not.

However, Tsuchimikado Fuyu didn't dwell on it too much, since things would become clear soon.

However, even if everyone participates, Tsuchimikado Fuyu doesn't really think that all these girls are interested in him.

After all, it was Raphiel, that cunning angel, who caused all this. Anything could happen. Who knows if they were tricked into this situation by Raphiel?

Chapter 428 and Vinette

"Wow! It's so lively!" Everyone exclaimed as they arrived at the temple fair venue and looked at the bustling streets.

"Well then, Dong-kun, the next half hour is yours to handle Vinette." Raphiel smiled as she pushed Vinette forward, then left with the others.

As Winette watched the group walk away, she suddenly felt shy and extremely distressed. Why had she agreed to Raphiel's request? She and Dongjun had no relationship whatsoever!

"Um... well... your clothes are very nice, they suit you very well." Tsuchimikado Fuyu felt the atmosphere was a bit awkward, so he wanted to find something to talk about, but after hesitating for a while, he didn't know what to say, so he could only compliment her clothes.

At this moment, Vigne was wearing a light red yukata, which looked quite nice.

Tsuchimikado Fuyu guessed that the reason Vignette didn't buy a kimono was probably because she didn't have enough money for living expenses, since kimonos are much more expensive than yukatas.

Of course, many people also wear yukatas to the summer festival. After all, kimonos are not only expensive, but also very troublesome to wear. They have many layers, and although each layer is not thick, it is still easy to get hot in the summer.

Among Tsuchimikado Fuyu and the others, apart from Winette, Nibutani Morika and Gabriel were all wearing yukatas, while Kuroneko was wearing a blue-purple kimono that she had made herself. However, although it was called a kimono, it was actually more or less a yukata.

"Um, thank you." Winette nodded, blushing, then said慌张地, "Please don't misunderstand, I was tricked into coming here by Raphiel, I didn't want to participate..."

Of course, it's not that I dislike you, Fuyu-kun. We're just friends. As for dates... no, this can't even be considered a date...

"Ugh, what am I even saying?!"

Vinette let out a wail and stomped her foot in frustration. Not only had she failed to explain clearly, but her explanation had only made things more confusing.

"Pfft, hahahaha." Seeing Vinette's reaction, the awkward atmosphere instantly vanished. Vinette glared at Tsuchimikado Fuyu with displeasure. "Fuyu-kun, is it that funny?"

"Oh, sorry, sorry. But Vinnie, could you tell me what Raphiel just said to you?" Tsuchimikado Fuyu asked with a smile.

"They didn't say much, just that each of us would spend half an hour alone with you, Dongjun, and then we would draw lots to decide the order."

I originally wanted to withdraw, but in the end Raphiel said that everyone was participating, and if I withdrew, Fuyuki might be sad, and it would affect our friendship... so...

But don't get me wrong, I quit simply because it felt like a date, and that felt a little strange.

"Yeah, I understand, but actually I also feel something's off. I don't know what Raphiel is trying to do." Although Tsuchimikado Tou was grateful for Raphiel's help, he didn't hesitate to tease her.

After all, he didn't know about this in the first place, so he certainly wouldn't take the blame voluntarily.

"Maybe she's planning some kind of scam again," Vinette nodded and said.

Vinette was quite familiar with Raphiel's personality, so even without Tsuchimikado Fuyu saying anything, Vinette could guess what kind of tricks Raphiel was planning this time.

"Forget it, we'll deal with whatever comes our way. Since things have come to this, we can't just stand here and chat!"

"It's so lively tonight, let's go for a walk together," Tsuchimikado Fuyu invited.

“That’s all we can do,” Winette said with a sigh.

"By the way, are all of you participating?" Tsuchimikado Fuyu suddenly asked.

Vinette paused, thought for a moment, and then continued walking forward, saying, "Senior Fennel and Satania aren't participating. Satania said she's going to conquer the Summer Festival with Princess Goldfish, so she's not planning to come with us."

"Goldfish Princess and the others? I hope they don't cause any more trouble." Tsuchimikado Fuyu said, rubbing his temples and looking like he had a headache.

Originally, Tsuchimikado Fuyu wanted the shikigami to go to the summer festival together today, but Kingyo-hime refused, saying that they would participate by themselves through the Hyakki Yagyō (Night Parade of One Hundred Demons) and would not go with Tsuchimikado Fuyu and the others.

The shikigami unanimously agreed to the Goldfish Princess's suggestion, a rare occurrence. Even the Demon Blade Princess did not refuse, indicating that they were also looking forward to the Hyakki Yagyō (Night Parade of One Hundred Demons).

The so-called "Night Parade of One Hundred Demons" actually involves transforming into a state invisible to ordinary people, and then playing, causing trouble, or parading through the streets at the summer festival...

However, because they are currently unable to actively transform into that state for some unknown reason, the other shore flowers can only use magic similar to Thor's "cognitive impairment" to make them invisible to ordinary people.

Once everyone had reached this state, they left the courtyard ahead of Tsuchimikado Fuyu and the others, forming teams and heading to the temple fair to play on their own.

"Those two are getting more and more of a headache," Winette said, echoing her sentiments.

Last time, without anyone noticing, a Conquerors Alliance was created, and it actually became quite popular. Now, people online are discussing this organization from time to time.

The two exchanged a smile; on this point, they still had something in common.

Next, Tsuchimikado Fuyu and Winette started shopping. Every now and then, they would see a small gift or two that they liked, and Winette would consult Tsuchimikado Fuyu's opinion before deciding whether to buy it or not.

It wasn't that Tsuchimikado Fuyu was stingy and unwilling to spend money; it was simply that Vinette was unwilling to accept it.

After all, even though they are friends, Winette would feel embarrassed to accept gifts other than birthday presents.

She would especially refuse gifts from boys.

Afterwards, they played a game of catching goldfish, but Winette couldn't catch any herself. In the end, Tsuchimikado Fuyu helped her catch two.

However, after catching them, Winette didn't choose to take them with her. She just wanted to experience the game, and as for the two goldfish, she didn't have room to keep them at home.

Rather than accidentally killing it and feeling heartbroken, it's better to just not have it at all.

Tsuchimikado Tou isn't really interested in keeping goldfish, since keeping goldfish isn't as fun as keeping Goldfish Princess!

The two chatted and laughed for half an hour, during which Tsuchimikado Fuyu also ran into Yingcao, who was shopping with Shiro. After exchanging greetings, they all went their separate ways to play.

"I've already messaged Rikka, they're coming right away." Standing in front of a takoyaki shop, Winette said, holding a bowl of takoyaki in one hand and her phone in the other.

"Time flies, half an hour is almost up," Tsuchimikado Fuyu said with a smile.

"Yeah, but I had a lot of fun just now," Winette said with a smile. "It's a pity I didn't manage to catch the goldfish."

"It takes skill, but you'll get the hang of it after a few tries."

"It's nothing, it's nothing. I was just expressing my feelings. I'll just enjoy the game for a bit," Winette said, shaking her head.

“Vinette, you still enjoy participating in these kinds of activities.”

"Because it's very interesting!"

Chapter 429 Weapons with Immense Destructive Power

“Now it’s time for us to practice our teamwork,” Rikka Takanashi said as she walked over after Vigne left.

"Training teamwork... never mind, I'm being stupid for worrying about this kind of thing." Tsuchimikado Fuyu patted his forehead. Although he didn't know if Takanashi Rikka was doing it voluntarily or if she was tricked by Raphiel, these weren't big problems.

"So, what do you want to do next?" Tsuchimikado Fuyu asked.

"Head to the place of sacrifice and summoning."

"Sacrifice? You mean that temple over there?"

The reason why temple fairs are called temple fairs is because the venues where they are held are either temples or shrines, and this year it was a temple in Chiba that applied to host it.

"Yes, I heard that demons will appear later, and they will be carrying out a large-scale sacrificial ceremony." Rikka Takanashi nodded seriously and said.

"Demons? Aren't Vinette and Satania demons?" Tsuchimikado Fuyu retorted. "Besides, large-scale rituals can't be held without prior notice, right? You're talking about the club's dance performance, aren't you?"

"almost."

"Much worse." Tsuchimikado Tou rolled her eyes at Rikka and complained.

Rikka Takanashi completely ignored Tsuchimikado Fuyu's complaints and skipped towards the temple. "Fuyu, hurry up! Being late for the ritual will get you cursed. Although my Evil King's Eye can defend against it, Fuyu, you can't."

"Rikka, a man can't say no." Tsuchimikado Fuyu gently tapped Takanashi Rikka's head and teased her.

"Why?" Rikka Takanashi asked curiously, covering her head.

"There's no reason why, you'll find out later."

"Winter, stingy."

“This isn’t a matter of being stingy or not,” Tsuchimikado Fuyu said.

If I explained it clearly, you would say I'm H!

"Rikka, are you sure you haven't gone the wrong way?" After a while, Tsuchimikado Fuyu looked at the shops that had already reached the end and complained.

"Probably not," Rikka Takanashi said uncertainly.

"No, we've obviously gone the wrong way."

"Special interference signal detected, direction perception failed, requesting support." Suddenly, Rikka Takanashi stopped and said to Fuyuki Tsuchimikado in a serious tone.

"...Don't try to get away with being cute." Tsuchimikado Fuyu gave Takanashi Rikka another chop to the neck. "I didn't expect you to be such a terrible navigator, Rikka."

"It was just an accident. If there were no interference signals, it definitely wouldn't have gone wrong," Rikka Takanashi denied.

“Alright, since you’ve been distracted, then follow me from here on out,” Tsuchimikado Fuyu said. “Besides, the dance performance might not even be at the temple. Let’s go check out the stage in the middle.”

The temple fair wasn't particularly large, but it wasn't small either.

Because it is held in the square in front of the temple, the entire square plus a food street around it makes up the whole temple fair.

The square was filled with various stalls arranged in an even and orderly manner, forming about four or five streets. In the very center of these streets was a large stage where various groups or temples would perform.

Of course, some groups, due to their small number of members or short performances, may not achieve good results on stage. In such cases, they may stage surprise performances in other locations. This allows them to perform multiple times and also gives tourists a surprise.
