However, her hometown was the residence of the Shirakawa Domain in Edo, which is now Minato Ward, Tokyo. Nobody was interested in that place, so Okita Souji could only pout and feel secretly annoyed for a while.

To be precise, people aren't just uninterested in Tokyo, but also in the Kanto region, because they've already visited many of those places to some extent.

However, they couldn't go too far because they only had two days. So after discussing it for a while, they set their sights on Shizuoka Prefecture, which is located in the central part of Japan.

Firstly, it's very close to Mount Fuji, which can fulfill Hinata and the other kids' wish to see Mount Fuji. Secondly, there are many campsites and hot springs there.

Although they could go camping on Mount Fuji, it would be very cold there at that time of year, and there might even be heavy snowfall.

Tsuchimikado and the others didn't mind, but Hinata and the others couldn't stand it, so after thinking about it, they gave up.

Originally, Tsuchimikado Fuyu's travel plan was to have Kurahashi Kyoko arrange a large bus to take everyone there.

However, Nero sternly refused.

The reason is simple: after playing a motorcycle racing game with Xiao Mo yesterday, they wanted to have a real-life competition.

Immediately afterward, others who heard this also wanted to join the competition.

Little Mo and Drake, needless to say, possess innate riding skills, and their B-level riding ability allows them to use all modern modes of transportation.

Although Okita Souji's riding skill is only E, she is at least capable of riding common modes of transportation.

While Caster's Nero doesn't have riding skills, she has an EX-rank Emperor Privilege, making her probably even better at racing than Mordred.

This applies to characters like Yakumo Yukari, Leonardo da Vinci, the old man, and Scáthach.

Although they lack riding skills, their own skills are even more overpowered: A-rank Yokai Sage, EX-rank Talented Wisdom, Uncrowned Martial Arts, and A+-rank Magical Wisdom—each of them possesses the ability to easily drive various modes of transportation.

In the end, it turned out that only Enki couldn't ride a horse.

As for Kiyohime, well, she's still working with Kobayashi; they didn't come today.

However, Tsuchimikado Tou did bring Connor along, and on Thursday he received confirmation from Leonardo da Vinci that she was indeed capable of creating virtual reality devices.

But this is only what she thinks she can make; even she would need to study carefully how to actually make it.

That afternoon, Tsuchimikado Fuyu took Da Vinci and Gabriel to the company and also notified Kurahashi Kyoko. They had a serious discussion at the company about the development of full-dive technology.

Finally, everyone reached a consensus to re-establish a company for virtual reality technology development.

The company was jointly funded by Starry Sky Games and Kyoko Kurahashi, with Da Vinci contributing his expertise. Each of the three held 30% of the company's shares, while the remaining 10% was reserved for the company's future top technical researchers.

After all, Da Vinci couldn't keep working on this kind of thing in the company forever. Once she finished making it, she would definitely have to hand it over to someone else to manage and have other researchers develop the corresponding games.

Da Vinci didn't ask for any shares; instead, he gave all of his shares to Gabriel, which made Gabriel extremely happy.

Of course, her happiness wasn't actually because she saw the company's potential or how much wealth it could create; she was happy because if the game was eventually made, she could become a privileged user.

After discussing this matter on Thursday afternoon, the establishment of the company and the purchase of equipment and materials were handed over to the Kurahashi family. Immediately afterwards, Tsuchimikado Fuyu also invited Kobayashi and the others to go camping. Although Tohru really wanted to go, she was unfortunately rejected by Kobayashi.

However, to appease Tohru, Kobayashi said that she could accompany Tohru to play during her next break, which made Tohru smile again. She even gloated to Kiyohime for a long time, which made Kiyohime want to hit her.

Although Kobayashi wasn't going, she brought Connor over on Friday night so she could have a good two days of fun.

It has to be said that Xiaolin and her friends are really starting to look more and more like a family.

Husband Kobayashi, wife Tohru, daughter Kanna. (Kiyohime: And what about me?)

……

"Honey, are you sure you don't want to come with me?" Nero, riding a cool motorcycle, reluctantly put on his helmet and invited Tsuchimikado Fuyu.

"No, it's so cold today, let's forget about the motorcycle," Tsuchimikado Fuyu refused without hesitation.

Although being carried by Nero meant I could take advantage of him and get a little something for myself, it was just too cold outside.

In fact, it's not just all the Heroic Spirits who participate in the motorcycle race; only Nero, Mordred, Drake, and Leonardo da Vinci are involved.

The other Servants all chose to take the bus.

Of course, there are exceptions, such as Yukari Yakumo, who reached her destination ahead of time in a single instant and is now soaking in the hot springs waiting for everyone.

As for why we didn't bring other people along, it's because everyone wanted to enjoy not only camping but also the scenery along the way.

Especially Nero and the others, they still have a competition to go through, what's the point of just arriving at the destination directly?

However, it's something to consider when returning home. If you can go straight home to rest after two days of fun, that would be really nice.

Although, someone as timid as Sakura might not dare to enter Yakumo Yukari's gap, since it's full of big eyes, anyone would feel scared looking at it.

Not to mention Sakura and the others, even Tsuchimikado Fuyu and the others felt a bit creeped out after witnessing the gap for the first time.

……

“They’ve already set off, so we should get ready too,” Nero said, looking at Mordred and the other two.

"No problem, bring it on," Xiao Mo said confidently.

"Hehe, although sailing a boat is different from driving a car, I can conquer anything!" Drake said aggressively.

"Well, none of that matters. Just remember to wear your communication headsets, otherwise we'll cause trouble for Aster and the others if we're caught speeding," Da Vinci reminded them.

To avoid causing trouble for Tsuchimikado and his team during the competition, Leonardo da Vinci specially created an earpiece that could block cameras along the route while still allowing communication between them.

At the same time, each person's car was equipped with a map navigation system specially made by Da Vinci. This navigation system could observe whether there were traffic police on the road via satellite, and if so, it would remind them to slow down.

As for where the satellite came from... Da Vinci said, "What's yours is mine! There's no harm in using it."

Of course, they all had driver's licenses; Kyoko Kurahashi got them for them, and it was easy to obtain them through the Kurahashi family's connections.

Chapter 1083 Yukari Yakumo's Chance Encounter

"Finally arrived, Fujinomiya!" Outside Fujinomiya Station, a pink-haired girl with a backpack walked out of the station and happily took a photo with Mount Fuji behind her.

"Mount Fuji, blue sky, red torii gate, it's amazing! Luckily it's a sunny day!" The girl happily entered Fujisan Hongu Sengen Taisha Shrine and began her solo trip.

"My first solo camping trip, I hope it's a great experience!" After finishing her prayers, the girl happily walked out of the shrine, singing and dancing, "Yakisoba, yakisoba, Fuji-no-miya..."

"Yakisoba!" Suddenly, the girl stopped in her tracks, looking at a yakisoba shop next door, excitedly wanting to go in. "There's a yakisoba shop in front of the shrine! The aroma of the sauce..."

The girl couldn't help but drool as she smelled the delicious aroma from the shop.

Suddenly, she froze, then quickly shook her head and said, "No, no, I need to calm down. I must go to the shop my sister recommended today!"

So the girl decisively left the restaurant, but she was like a peacock flying southeast, lingering every five miles.

She would walk a few steps and then look back, reaffirming her goal and continuing towards the distance until she could no longer see the shop when she looked back. Only then would she happily head towards her next destination.

Before long, she arrived at her destination. "I've got it! Besides yakisoba, Fujinomiya also has a specialty called Shigure-yaki. My sister said I could eat it here..."

As she eagerly awaited to see what kind of delicious food "Shigure-yaki" would be, she arrived outside the shop and stared in disbelief at the long queue, exclaiming, "There are so many people!"

Although there were many people and she was a little hungry, she figured that since she was already there, it wouldn't be worth going back to eat fried noodles.

Besides, with so many people here, it means the food must be delicious, so I can't miss it.

So, with an expression of heroic sacrifice, she walked to the very back of the line.

Just then, a woman's voice suddenly rang out behind her, "Oh, excuse me, little sister, what kind of food do you have here? I see there's quite a long line."

The girl looked up at the sound and saw a blonde beauty standing behind her, dressed in a strange-looking outfit with a Bagua pattern and holding a pretty parasol.

"Um, this..." The girl was also flustered by Yakumo Yukari and hurriedly tried to say something, "Um, hello!"

"Hello, young lady," Yukari Yakumo said with a smile. "So, can you answer my question now?"

Because she had arrived at Fujinomiya in advance using a gap, Yukari Yakumo soaked in the hot springs for a while before heading out for a stroll.

So she wandered over here and saw a small shop with so many people queuing up outside, which made her a little curious about the shop.

"Ah... well, the specialty food here in Fujinomiya is Shigure-yaki. My sister said it's delicious, but this is my first time here, so I'd like to try it."

"I see, are you dressed like this for a vacation?"

"I guess so, this is my first time camping alone, hehe!" The girl scratched her head a little shyly and said.

"Camping? I'm planning to go camping too!"

"Eh? Big sister, are you going camping too? But..." The girl looked behind Yakumo Yukari in confusion, but didn't see any camping equipment.

Did this pretty lady store her equipment away? Or was she already set it up and just out for a stroll around Fuji Palace?

“Big sister…” Yakumo Yukari frowned slightly and said seriously, “My name is Yakumo Yukari, you can call me Yukari (the Japanese pronunciation of Yukari), I’m only 17 years old, not some big sister.”

"Huh? Is Murasaki-chan only 17? She seems so mature!" The girl exclaimed in surprise. "My name is Kagamihara Nadeshiko, I'm 16, and I'm from Yamanashi. Where do you study, Murasaki-chan?"

"Studying? I don't study, but I'm in Chiba now!" Yukari Yakumo said with a smile.

"Huh? Could it be..." Kagamihara Nadeshiko immediately thought of various reasons, such as Yakumo Yukari's family being too poor to afford school, or that she was a delinquent and didn't want to study, or perhaps...

She considered many possibilities, but then rejected them one by one.

After all, whether it's her clothing, her posture, or her temperament, she looks like a rich heiress.

"Oh, I see. So, Zijiang is homeschooled, right? Like a rich young lady with a private tutor?" Nadeshiko quickly concluded.

Yukari Yakumo was also a little curious as to why she came to this conclusion, but let it be a misunderstanding. Compared to an old monster of unknown age, a 17-year-old young lady with a tutor was definitely more suitable for her.

Seeing that Yakumo Yukari just smiled and didn't say anything, Nadeshiko also thought that she had guessed correctly, and couldn't help but sigh at how smart she was!

"Next one, please come in!" The two chatted for a while and before they knew it, the line in front of them had disappeared, and soon the voice of a waiter came from inside the door.

"Hey, Zijiang, I'm going in first!" Fuzi happily walked into the store and found an empty seat.

What a lucky day! Not only did I meet a super gentle and beautiful heiress, but I also got to eat delicious food!

But just as she put down her luggage and was thinking about what to order, a bald chef looked at her and asked, "What would you like to order?"

"Let me think..." Nadeshiko quickly looked at the menu hanging above the shop, but there were too many dishes and she didn't know what to choose.

Just then, the voices of customers came from the side, "Boss, Five Flavors of Seasonal Rain!"

Everyone wanted this dish, so it seems to be the specialty of this restaurant.

"Alright!" The shopkeeper continued, looking at Nadeshiko, "What would you like to order?"

"Eh...I..." Nadeshiko looked around in a panic, and was about to join the others in ordering Gomi Shigure when suddenly Yakumo Yukari's voice came from beside her, "Bring me one of the shop's specialties!"

Upon hearing this, Nadeshiko was about to say "Me too," but fortunately, she reacted quickly and stopped herself in time.

Although she should have no problem eating, it's very expensive. She used all the money she earned from her part-time job for more important things, and there's definitely no extra money for her to spend on food.

Didn't you notice she didn't even go to the hot springs this time?

“I…I want a serving of Five Flavors Seasonal Rain!” Nadeshiko said quickly.

“Alright.” The chef nodded, then looked at Yukari Yakumo and asked, “Sir, are you sure you want all the specialties?”
