I have an unlimited number of shikigami

Regardless of what happened in the past, this ruin is now his private property, and he will have the final say on everything here from now on.

After taking a quick shower and changing into clean clothes, Fujiwara Izaya returned to his bedroom.

A room the size of six tatami mats is located at the end of a dark corridor in the backyard of the worship hall.

The only furniture was a desk, a wardrobe, and a bed. The brown wooden floor was buried under a pile of cardboard boxes, which were haphazardly stuffed with hardcover books, Spanish and German textbooks, outdated CDs, various small musical instruments, and painting tools. Near the corner, there was even a faded old piano that had been brought back from school.

The miscellaneous items took up about two-thirds of the room's space, making it difficult to even squeeze out a place to walk.

Since Fujiwara Izaya is a yokai, he's not as particular as he was when he was human, and he doesn't mind the environment here.

I turned on the energy-saving light on the ceiling, listened to Spanish songs on my phone, and started working on the homework due tomorrow.

Today is a day with a light spring rain and high humidity.

Although the doors and windows were tightly closed, moisture still seeped into the room with the sticky sound of raindrops, making the air feel constantly sticky.

Halfway through his homework, Fujiwara Izaya put down his pen and moved his wrist, his right middle finger still feeling a slight numbness from writing for so long.

Feeling the sticky moisture in the air, he couldn't help but frown.

They dislike damp environments.

If he weren't afraid of igniting the books scattered on the ground, he would have set them on fire to dry them.

and many more……

If setting it on fire won't work, how about freezing it?

"I'm such a little genius!"

Fujiwara Izaya excitedly snapped his fingers in a cool manner: "Yukihime, come out!"

Chapter 3. The Snow Woman is Still a Baby

"Yukihime, come out!"

As Fujiwara Izaya summoned him, the indoor temperature dropped rapidly, and the drifting water vapor condensed into crystal-clear ice crystals.

Behind him, a faint phantom appeared, and the surrounding floating ice crystals seemed to be drawn towards the phantom, spinning and drifting towards it. The ice crystals merged into the phantom, gradually solidifying into a solid form.

In the blink of an eye, a woman as pure and translucent as snow floated behind him, her feet not touching the ground.

She had an extremely beautiful face, long silver-white hair that seemed to emanate a chill, and beautiful blue eyes like ice crystals. Her skin was so pale that it was almost transparent, and you could vaguely see the fine blood vessels under her skin.

She has a slender waist and long legs.

Key point: White stockings with garter belts!

With the appearance of the Yuki-onna, the originally damp air in the room quickly became dry and cold. Fujiwara Izaya took a deep breath and felt as if the whole world had been refreshed.

"Make me a cup of tea, and you can play by yourself for the rest of the time."

Fujiwara Rin has math homework to do next, so he doesn't have time to play with his first wife... oops, his first shikigami.

The snow woman remained motionless.

A faint sadness lingered in her clear blue eyes as she coldly watched her master's retreating figure.

"Stop being stubborn, hurry up and make some tea, remember it's black tea."

The snow woman floated towards him expressionlessly.

A cold mist followed, seemingly filled with countless ice crystals. Fujiwara Izaya turned around and looked over. The snow woman lowered her head and stared directly at him.

Its shapely body was covered in snow and frost; its eyelashes, lips, and hair were all invaded by ice and snow.

"I'll only play with you for a little while, consider it a reward for the desiccant."

Fujiwara Izaya finally gave in, got up and went to the bathroom to fill a basin with water.

While waiting for him to return, the Snow Woman remained expressionless, like a malfunctioning refrigerator.

After the water was brought over, she squatted down on the floor and gently dipped her slender, translucent fingers into the water.

The water froze quickly.

Then, the Snow Woman raised her head and looked at her master with her sorrowful blue eyes.

“…It’s so pitiful. I feel like I’m the one who’s been abusing you.” Fujiwara Izaya muttered to himself, reaching his hand onto the ice.

The demonic fire instantly melted the ice into water.

The snow woman then put her fingers into the water, where they froze into ice.

Fujiwara Izaya melted the ice back into water.

The two monsters played this silly interaction for a full hour.

Thankfully, no one saw it, otherwise Fujiwara Izaya might have been so ashamed that he carried the train back to the hidden town overnight.

"Alright, if you keep playing like this, I'll be punished by standing in the corner tomorrow!" Fujiwara Izaya reached out and touched the snow woman's cold forehead, smiling affectionately. "Go make me a cup of tea, I need to continue my homework."

The snow woman glanced longingly at the basin of water, then turned and went to the kitchen to boil water and make tea.

Fujiwara Izaya watched her graceful figure from behind and sighed regretfully.

Such a well-developed and beautiful monster, but unfortunately, its intelligence is still that of a baby...

The shikigami extracted by the system all have this problem: their behavior and logic are somewhat like artificial intelligence, or rather, they are infants based on their set personality. Their concept of "self" is very vague, and they are not living individuals with independent thinking at all.

The only way to improve this problem is through the awakening of shikigami, but the awakening task requires a long period of companionship and nurturing, and the bond level must reach 100 before it can be triggered... It feels like playing some kind of nurturing game.

Furthermore, to complete the awakening task, one must find a monster in the real world that corresponds to the awakened shikigami, make that monster willingly submit to him, and then fuse with the system's shikigami to be considered a successful awakening.

The most difficult problem is that awakening missions can only be triggered by chance, and even if Fujiwara Izaya wants to grind for them, there is no direction for him to grind.

※※※※※

About ten minutes later, the Snow Woman returned to the room carrying a tray with teacups and a teapot.

After placing the black tea on the table, she squatted silently in front of the basin, motionless, only occasionally raising her hand to brush a strand of hair from her forehead. From Fujiwara Izaya's perspective, she looked even more like an ice sculpture.

After Fujiwara Izaya finished his math homework, she was still squatting there, staring blankly at the ice in the basin of water.

There wasn't a trace of emotion in his clear blue eyes.

As the story suggests, the fragile, gentle, melancholic, and icy-cold Snow Woman never cries or laughs, never feels sorrow or joy. Her heart may be as cold as her appearance, and no one knows what she has been through in the past.

Fujiwara Izaya picked up the iced black tea on the table and took a sip to moisten his throat.

“Snow Princess,” he said, setting down his teacup.

The snow woman straightened up and tilted her head slightly to look at him.

"Come and eat." Fujiwara Izaya looked at the white pantyhose peeking out from under her thigh-length skirt and thought to himself that her legs wrapped in white stockings were really nice, the kind of legs you could play with for years.

The snow woman's glistening lips twitched slightly.

Although she couldn't understand what Fujiwara Izaya was saying, the memories etched into her body made her subconsciously float over and sit on Fujiwara Izaya's lap, gracefully raising her white-stockinged legs.

Fujiwara Izaya suddenly thought of a question.

The snow woman's body was light and soft, but it felt like ice to the touch, cold and icy.

The surface is cold, but what about inside the body?

Just thinking about it makes me a little horrified.

A sudden shiver ran through him, and Fujiwara Izaya muttered, "You don't need to act so intimate, or I'll feel guilty for taking advantage of an idiot."

The snow woman blinked, looking puzzled.

"Alright, never mind." Fujiwara Izaya touched her cold hair, opened the system interface, and a simple blue panel appeared in his sight.

In the current world, monsters are divided into six realms according to their strength: lower, middle, upper, general, king, and venerable. These six realms correspond to the alphabetical classification of the extraordinary sequence of the entire world, which is EDCBAS.

Each realm can be further divided into three smaller realms.

For example, lower-level monsters can be further subdivided into three smaller realms—beginner, intermediate, and advanced—with varying degrees of strength, using the three stages of E, E+, and E++.

Shinto priests and shrine maidens, as well as Buddhist and Taoist monks, all follow this ranking rule in terms of strength.

Fujiwara Izaya's current strength is B, which is at the level of a beginner demon general. He is roughly equivalent to a human who has cultivated for thirty or forty years and an old demon who has lived for three or four hundred years.

Moreover, thanks to the two talents inherited from his parents, Fujiwara Izaya's attack attribute is B-rank, which corresponds to a demon general, while all other stats are A-rank, which corresponds to a demon king.

What does it mean to be invincible among those of the same level? (Tactical lean back.jpg)

You mean support?

A real man doesn't need to be a support!

As for the Snow Woman...

She's currently only a low-ranking player, but her experience bar is just 1% away from being full.

With just this little bit of experience, the beautiful and sorrowful Snow Maiden can be upgraded from a low-tier trash to a mid-tier trash.

Fujiwara Izaya switched to the shop interface and easily found the strangely named item, "One Hundred Foods to Please the Shikigami," among the dazzling array of goods.
