The Infinite Powerhouse Mixed in with Sakura Dormitory

After saying goodbye to Rias, Jiang Jing used the key to open the entrance and went inside.

"Meow...meow..."

Jiang Jing's entrance woke up the black cats sleeping in the corner of the living room. In the darkness, the cats crawled out of their beds and ran over, circling around Jiang Jing as he changed his shoes in the entryway, occasionally rubbing against him affectionately.

The six cats had never been separated from Jiang Jing for long since he took them in, and they suddenly became very dependent on him after he left for two days.

Just then, Xiao Guang, the white cat sleeping in the room in the distance, heard the sound and darted out from the crack in the door. Upon seeing Jiang Jing, it happily let out a soft meow.

"Meow……"

Immediately, the black cat, Xiwang, Muling, and the others beside Jiang Jing all stopped obediently and made way for the white cat that had come from behind.

"Heh...you're quite the big shot at home." Jiang Jing squatted down and patted Xiao Guang's head, which was soft and fluffy. Then he reached out and patted the other cats again to calm them down.

"Sora, you're back." At that moment, the living room light was turned on, and Shiina Mashiro, wearing a short-skirted nightgown, rubbed her sleepy eyes and tilted her head to look at Jiang Jing at the entrance of the hallway.

Although her face remained expressionless as usual, the way she stared intently at Jiang Jing and the slight upturn of her lips revealed how surprised and happy she was by his return.

Looking at the girl who radiated pure white light from her soul to her body, Jiang Jing smiled faintly: "Yes, you're back."

"Kouta, your clothes." Only then did Shiina Mashiro notice that Jiang Jing was wearing a different blue and white military uniform than when he left yesterday.

Jiang Jing smiled slightly: "Oh, yesterday, my junior high school classmate who was being so mysterious about inviting me to the party turned out to be going to play cosplay survival in the wild. My clothes were accidentally torn, so I just put on my cosplay clothes back."

"Is cosplay fun?" Shiina Mashiro asked curiously.

"It's alright, look, I dyed my hair black." Jiang Jing pointed to his hair, which had been cut short again.

He was supposed to come back this morning, but he went to Tianwang City to make arrangements for Amiya and the others.

After completing all the formalities, Jiang Jing left the Demon Blade there, letting Amiya and the others, who were settled down and preparing to go to the front lines to witness the Demon Tide and earn some contribution points, take it to harvest monsters.

So after finishing a bunch of things, Jiang Jing and the Fox Demon Consort returned so late by using the now-dormant teleportation platform. In reality, it only took him half a day to go there and destroy a world.

As for why Jiang Jing didn't intervene to deal with the still-erupting demonic tide and relieve the pressure on the frontline warriors...

One reason is that he has no interest in killing now, and the other is that as those ancient evil gods at the main god level are driven out and suppressed by powerful king-level evil gods, other top-level powerhouses will gradually reduce their involvement.

The goal is to train lower-level personnel in a controlled environment, hoping that more talents who can break through limits will emerge in life-or-death battles.

Otherwise, without a continuous supply of fresh blood, and with the constant fall of god-level powerhouses on the forbidden battlefield, there will eventually be a shortage of talent at the level of extraordinary forces.

"Okay, I'm going to take a shower and get ready for bed. I have school tomorrow." As he spoke, Jiang Jing walked up to Shiina Mashiro and gently ruffled her slightly messy long hair.

After entering the room, Jiang Jing glanced at the messy bed, clearly showing signs of Shiina Mashiro having slept there, shook his head, found a set of pajamas, and went to take a shower.

"Meow……"

After Jiang Jing left, the white cat Xiao Guang, who had followed him in, jumped onto the computer desk and looked at Shiina Mashiro with a proud gaze, but Shiina Mashiro ignored it.

Jiang Jing walked into the bathroom, turned on the hot water, and started running the water. Then he turned back to the door and asked curiously, "What are you doing here?"

Outside the bathroom door, which was still open, Shiina Mashiro peeked out and her eyes lit up when she saw Jiang Jing preparing to take a shower: "Sora, let me scrub your back."

"You're going to rub my back? Why?" Jiang Jing looked at Shiina Mashiro with a puzzled expression.

"Sorata's been away these past couple of days, so I went online to watch some romance anime and read some novels. There were scenes where the female lead scrubbed the male lead's back, so I wanted to try it out." Shiina Mashiro looked at Jiang Jing expectantly.

Jiang Jing shook his head, walked over and pushed her head away: "Stop messing around, I'm afraid you'll have to take a shower too."

"Can't Sorata and I be together? We've already done that." Shiina Mashiro tilted her head, looking puzzled.

"It's not that it's impossible, but I'm afraid you won't be able to handle it. Your body is too weak right now." Jiang Jing rolled his eyes.

"I'm really good, Sorata."

Hearing Jiang Jing say she was weak, Shiina Mashiro pouted unhappily and stretched out her slender arm to show off her muscles: "I started training after Sorata left yesterday."

"You exercise." Jiang Jing was also taken aback. "How do you exercise?"

A hint of smugness appeared in Shiina Mashiro's eyes as she held up her fingers and said, "I did five sit-ups and five push-ups last night."

"Uh...that's amazing. Okay, go out now, I'm going to take a shower."

As Jiang Jing spoke, he pushed the unhappy Shiina Mashiro out and closed the door.

When Jiang Jing returned from his shower, he found Shiina Mashiro already lying in bed, dozing off and waiting for him, as it was already two or three in the morning.

"Go to sleep, get up early tomorrow." Jiang Jing turned off the light.

A rustling sound came from the darkness. Shiina Mashiro naturally climbed onto Jiang Jing's body, found a comfortable position, and hugged Jiang Jing: "Sora, let's be late tomorrow."

Lying in bed, Jiang Jing instinctively yawned and said nonchalantly, "If you want to be late, then be late."

Hearing Jiang Jing's doting words, Shiina Mashiro, who was lying on him, smiled with relief and closed her eyes to fall asleep.

At dawn, just as the sky began to brighten, Misaki Kamiigusa's uniquely energetic voice rang out from Sakura-sou.

"Mashiro, wake up! Today..."

boom!

The door to the house in the river view was flung open with a bang, and then Misaki Kamiigusa, already dressed in her uniform and ready to go to school, rushed in.

"Junior, when did you get back?" Misaki Ueiso's eyes lit up when she saw Jiang Jing on the bed.

"Wow, coming home drunk in the middle of the night, enjoying the tender service of your little wife, junior, did you and Mashiro do *hehehe* last night...?"

Looking at the two people she had woken up under the covers, Misaki Kamiigusa stared at them with wide eyes, her excitement filled with a desire to explore.

"Ah... Senior, hearing your alien-like energetic voice every day makes it impossible for me to stay in bed a little longer."

Misaki Ueiso, whom Jiang Jing called an alien, proudly put her hands on her hips: "Hahahaha... Junior, life should be full of energy every day. This is the creed of us aliens. Get up and enjoy this hopeful day."

Jiang Jing, who was awakened by Misaki Kamiigusa and still couldn't fall back asleep, shook his head. He got up with Mashiro Shiina, tidied up, opened the refrigerator, took out some meat, vegetables and eggs, and made a few simple bento boxes.

As for Shiina Mashiro, Jiang Jing has now asked her to work hard, saying that if she doesn't want to be a pet and wants to be a lover, she needs to change herself.

So now, apart from finding clothes and drying her hair, Shiina Mashiro spends most of her time studying hard, and it seems that becoming a lover with Jiang Jing has become another short-term goal for her.

"This is for you, senior."

Inside the kitchen counter, Jiang Jing, who had destroyed a world yesterday, was now wearing an apron, with a covered bento box placed behind the counter, and Ueiso Misaki unconsciously drooling.

"Thank you, junior." After quickly taking her bento, Misaki Kamiigusa's gaze fell on the other food boxes on the table, especially the meatballs that were emitting an enticing aroma.

Seeing Misaki Kamiigusa's greedy expression, Jiang Jing smiled and said, "Stop looking at me, that's enough for you. If you eat any more, you'll get fatter and fatter."

"Misaki, you've gained weight again."

After washing her face, Shiina Mashiro, her hair still damp, silently appeared behind Kamiigusa Misaki. She glanced at the area where Misaki's chest had grown even larger and said expressionlessly.

"It really is Mashiro." Misaki Kamiigusa exclaimed in surprise.

“Really.” Shiina Mashiro looked at the area where Kamiigusa Misaki’s chest was shaking and nodded affirmatively.

Misaki Kamiigusa immediately made a face: "I also found that I gained 100 grams when I weighed myself last night. Is it already this obvious that even Mashiro can see it?"

"One hundred grams isn't much. Senior, you probably burned off most of it during your run to school this morning," Jiang Jing said casually, taking off her apron backstage.

Instantly, Misaki Kamiigusa's eyes lit up: "Junior is right, Mashiro-chan. I'm not going with you guys today. Goodbye."

After saying that, Misaki Kamiigusa picked up her bento box with one hand and her backpack from the table with the other, and rushed out full of energy.

Watching Misaki Kamiigusa's hurried departure, Jiang Jing shook his head, then looked at Shiina Mashiro's feet: "Mashiro, why aren't you wearing socks?"

Shiina Mashiro looked at Jiang Jing and said, "Because I don't know what socks to wear today, Sorata. Do you think I should wear long stockings or short socks today?"

Jiang Jing glanced at the weather outside: "Short socks, you'll be too hot in the classroom if you wear stockings in this weather."

"Short socks? I thought you'd choose stockings, Sorata." Shiina Mashiro said with some disappointment, pulling out a pair of white stockings from behind her back. She remembered that Jiang Jing had glanced at her a few times after she wore them that time.

Jiang Jing shook his head: "Your feet look great in stockings, but in this weather, unless you're at home, you shouldn't wear them to school."

Having him, a human air conditioner, at home is indeed nice for Shiina Mashiro to wear stockings, but isn't it just asking for heat in the classroom? She's not like Rias or those demons.

"Oh, okay." Shiina Mashiro regretfully went back into the house and brought out another pair of white ankle socks, which she then handed to Jiang Jing.

"Kongtai, here you go."

"What?" Jiang Jing looked at her strangely.

"Sora helped me put it on."

"Didn't we say that we should work hard to learn how to do things ourselves now?"

"The clothes don't count."

"Uh... I don't really care." Jiang Jing shrugged and took the socks.

Shiina Mashiro sat down in the entryway very consciously, then obediently raised her foot and placed her little foot on Jiang Jing's lap as he squatted down. Instantly, the view under her skirt was also imprinted in Jiang Jing's eyes.

After putting white ankle socks on Shiina Mashiro, Jiang Jing played with her little feet and smiled slightly at the girl who was looking at him with calm eyes: "Alright, let's go."

"Mm." Looking at Jiang Jing's beautiful phoenix eyes filled with gentle light, Shiina Mashiro nodded.

When Shiina Mashiro and Eiko set off promptly at 8:30, there wasn't a single student to be seen on the streets outside.

"Sora, Ayano said the EVA response was pretty good." Walking side by side with Jiang Jing, Shiina Mashiro thoroughly enjoyed the atmosphere of just the two of them on the road.

Jiang Jing, carrying Shiina Mashiro's backpack in one hand and wearing a high school uniform to conceal his aura, looking like just a rather handsome high school student, nodded casually.

"Yeah."

With the story of EVA and its unique mecha art style, plus Shiina Mashiro's drawing skills, although it may not reach the same level as that world due to social environment issues, it will definitely be a hit.

As for how popular the river view will be, I don't care.

However, for Shiina Mashiro, being able to draw the manga she loves, especially a color manga in collaboration with Eike, makes all the difference.

So at this moment, Shiina Mashiro was in a very good mood. After discussing the coloring of the next issue's loading content with Jiang Jing, she said, "Sorata, I want to change the monthly serialization to a weekly one, okay?"

“Weekly? Can you handle that?” Jiang Jing turned to look at Shiina Mashiro.

“Yes, it’s possible,” Shiina Mashiro affirmed.

“Ayano said that the Toradora! manga is different from the novel. Releasing one volume a month is already considered fast. We need to give readers time to digest the content, so I can now free up half of my time each month,” Shiina Mashiro explained.

A single-volume manga is around 9100 pages. At the pace of five or six pages a day, which Shiina Mashiro is required to read, there is indeed a lot of extra time available within a month.

For the EVA manga, she only needed to be responsible for coloring, so the workload wasn't as heavy as it seemed. The weekly magazine only had about twenty pages in four weeks.

"Whatever you want, as long as you think it's okay," Jiang Jing said indifferently.

"I knew Sorata would agree." Shiina Mashiro's lips curled up slightly.
