In Tokyo, building the Holy Light Girls team

Unbeknownst to him, he had developed feelings for Mikiko. These feelings were not because of her figure or their respective positions, but simply because, as time went by, he grew to enjoy the time he spent with Mikiko and fell in love with her, who was so different from other women and only showed him a gentle expression.

Therefore, after what happened last night, Natsuki did not resist the other's intimacy, because he also sensed that Mikiko was hiding the same feelings for him.

After all, as someone who had been strengthened by the Holy Light multiple times, he could have easily broken free from Mikiko's grasp with just a little effort, so how could the events that followed have happened?

"...It's very simple. What happened between Mikiko and me just happened naturally. The timing, the occasion, and our feelings for each other all met the specific conditions. Both Mikiko and I were simply being true to our feelings and naturally reached this point. So what is there to feel guilty about?"

As Natsuki spoke, Mikiko's gaze remained fixed on the man, and the light in her eyes grew increasingly bright with each word he spoke.

"...To me, Mikiko has always been an exceptionally, exceptionally, exceptionally outstanding woman. Ignoring her background and past, in Natsuki's heart, Mikiko has always been incredibly charming and wonderful—arguably the best woman in the world. So, there's no need to apologize for yesterday, understand, Mikiko..."

After Xia Mu finished speaking, he subconsciously looked at Mikiko in his arms and found that her eyes were already filled with tears. When he looked at her, she finally couldn't hold back and buried her head in his arms, bursting into tears.

At this moment, the two had arrived above the hot spring pavilion. Xia Mu retracted his wings and landed. When he touched the ground, he easily dissipated the force of the dive. He then gently patted Mikiko's back without saying a word, just waiting silently. His eyes, which were now filled with tenderness and warmth, were looking at her.

After a while, Mikiko seemed to have composed herself. She wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and as she pulled away from the man's embrace, she gently punched Natsuki's chest and complained:

"Seriously, Natsuki-sensei, you're really going too far! I was already determined in my mind, but after hearing what you said, I couldn't help myself. You're so mean..."

Although it was a complaint, Mikiko's words carried a hint of playfulness, and Natsuki could clearly sense that the other person's thoughts seemed to have become much more relaxed after he had just spoken.

"but……"

Chapter 203 Changes

"Ok?"

Meeting Natsuki's questioning gaze, Mikiko said apologetically, "Please don't tell Sayuri about what happened between you and me, okay? I'm afraid of her..."

As the person who knows Sayuri's personality best, Mikiko knows that if she found out about this, who knows what outrageous things she might do—

She hadn't forgotten that night when Sayuri spoke words of love for a man right in front of her, her tone so earnest, and the emotions buried deep within her heart—it was clear she had truly fallen for him.

That's why Mikiko feels most guilty right now, especially when facing Sayuri. The reason she said those things to Natsuki earlier was also related to Sayuri.

“Sayuri…”

Hearing this name gave Xia Mu quite a headache. After all, he had heard Sayuri's words, which were full of ethical taboos, more than once. If it was just a simple liking, perhaps he could gradually face his feelings with the passage of time and the expansion of his worldview.

However, after several encounters, Natsuki had no doubt that Sayuri's almost insane obsession was clearly not childish nonsense!

Besides that, there's Mai...

Thinking of that same gentle smiling face, Xia Mu could only nod emphatically. As they looked at each other, they seemed to understand each other's thoughts.

"Hey, have we arrived at the hot spring resort yet?"

At this moment, Mikiko seemed to realize their location. After exclaiming in surprise, she immediately walked towards the stairwell. Looking at the figure with her back to her, showing off her slender curves, Natsuki scratched his head, decided not to think about it anymore, spread his wings again, and flew into the sky in an instant.

Unbeknownst to him, right after he left, Mikiko, who had already reached the top of the stairs, could no longer support herself and put her hands on the ladder beside her, her chest heaving violently, and her cheeks turning incredibly red in an instant.

When the man held her in his arms, Mikiko noticed that, for some reason, her body became uncontrollably weak, especially when the man's breath brushed against her face and she listened to Natsuki's gentle whispers. The waves of emotion washed over her heart and body again and again.

Mikiko could even feel that, along with her rapidly pounding heartbeat, her physical sensations intensified, as if she were back in the previous night, during the moment when she and the man were entangled...

This peculiar experience forced Mikiko to endure the discomfort, otherwise, a similar scene to the previous one might unfold again.

It wasn't until Xia Mu left that she finally lost control. She was panting heavily as she recalled the man's face, her fingertips lightly touching her cheeks, the burning sensation even more vivid.

"...Mikiko, when did you become like this? Cheer up, you're not a girl anymore..."

As she spoke, Mikiko's eyes clearly dimmed, but upon hearing the sounds coming from the stairs below, she quickly patted her heaving chest to calm herself down.

"Hey, Mikiko? What are you doing here...?"

"Aunt Pingzi, what's wrong with me...?"

……

What happened with Mikiko was just a minor episode in Natsuki's life, but he could clearly feel that the entanglement that night had brought about some inexplicable changes.

For example, when he met Mikiko again later, the way she looked at him was clearly filled with a deeper tenderness. That emotion, like a mist, brewed in Mikiko's heart, turning into gazes that stirred Natsuki time and time again.

He simply didn't suppress himself, and whenever he had time, he would use the excuse of soaking in hot springs to come and spend some time with Mikiko.

Fortunately, it was the off-season, so the number of visitors to the hot spring resort was significantly reduced, and the workload also decreased. Mikiko didn't have to work overtime until late as before, and Sayuri didn't visit the hot spring resort as often as before.

But during one of their "secret rendezvous," Sayuri happened to come looking for them. The moment she opened the door, Natsuki admitted that his heart seemed to skip a beat!

Fortunately, the two did not do anything too intimate at the time. In fact, Sayuri did not think much of it after seeing Natsuki. She even put on her work clothes and massaged Natsuki's back with Mikiko.

The tenderness that belonged only to the two of them brought Xia Mu an indescribable stimulation, not to mention the hand of a certain beautiful young woman that kept wandering over Xia Mu's back, bringing a kind of indescribable experience.

If it weren't for his "strong" willpower, he probably would have turned around and taken care of Mikiko on the spot!

However, Xia Mu restrained himself from that impulse, because if he did that, his previous promise might crumble in an instant!

On the other hand, when Natsuki returned home, the changes in Kato Yuri were undoubtedly the most obvious.

Perhaps because she had exposed what happened between Natsuki and Mikiko last time, or perhaps because her passionate side had been completely exposed by the man, Kato Yuri simply stopped hiding her desire for Natsuki!

Most of the time at home, Natsuki could see her wearing sexy bikinis. Each time she appeared, Kato Yuri would change her bikini. Natsuki then realized that this beautiful young woman actually had so many sexy bikinis!

Furthermore, every time Xia Mu woke up, he would always see a beautiful young woman, her body bent over, revealing an amazing cleavage, smiling gently at him and telling him to get up and eat. The visual impact of that moment was no less than the impact of Mikiko that night!

In a sense, Kato Yuri and Mikiko are actually very similar. When Natsuki occasionally sees Kato Yuri, he can even vaguely see the shadow of Mikiko in her. Because of this, Natsuki is quite uncomfortable at home. If he didn't think that he already has two women in his heart, he probably wouldn't be able to control himself and would completely devour Kato Yuri!

On the other hand, the existence of the Illuminati also became a source of worry for Xia Mu. Before the Illuminati was completely dealt with, it was difficult for him to spare the time to cultivate another relationship. Although Xia Mu knew that perhaps the other party just needed one sexual encounter, from another perspective, he realized that he had nothing to do with that kind of person.

Xia Mu thought about it seriously.

Seemingly remembering something, he looked up at the clock on the wall, slowly closed his eyes, and muttered softly, "I need to go to sleep quickly, tomorrow is..."

Chapter 204 Kato Yuri's Confession

"...Ms. Natsuki, you can get up now..."

Before she even opened her eyes, Xia Mu heard a slightly mischievous voice coming from beside her ear. She subconsciously pushed it away, only to touch something indescribably soft.

what is this?

Cotton?

Wait, where would we get cotton from?

So this is...

Xia Mu finally opened his eyes and saw a shy face. A beautiful young woman was biting her lip, her eyes filled with tears, like a shy flower about to bloom. This made him, who was still in a daze, suddenly wake up!

“Ms. Natsuki… if you like this… you could have said so sooner… you know what Yuri thinks… if it’s just the two of you, Mikiko… it’s not impossible…”

Before she could finish speaking, Xia Mu withdrew his hand. A figure flashed in Kato Yuri's eyes. The man who had been lying on the bed just moments before appeared at the doorway and made a defensive gesture towards her.

"Miss Yuri, as the master, even if it's to protect Nanako, you didn't have to 'attack' me in this way, did you?"

Kato Yuri seemed to have gotten used to Natsuki's sudden display of skill. She simply tugged at the strap on her shoulder, and the charm she exuded in that instant was enough to make an ordinary young boy fall for her.

Unfortunately, Natsuki was clearly not that naive. Looking at the expressionless face on the other person's face, Kato Yuri pouted, got off the bed, and walked towards Natsuki while swaying her hips.

“Ms. Natsuki, it’s a bit much for you to say that about Yuri. My daughter and I are so grateful to you for taking care of us, how could we possibly have such presumptuous thoughts? If you don’t believe me, Ms. Natsuki, I can…”

In the end, Kato Yuri leaned close to Natsuki again, her slightly bent-over posture once more exposing a glimpse of her snow-white skin to the man's eyes. Natsuki subconsciously recalled the scene of Mikiko and Mai making the same gesture, and it seemed that, in some ways, Kato Yuri in front of him was more charming.

Natsuki, what are you thinking about?

Realizing that he seemed to be somewhat immersed in the "allure" of Kato Yuri, Natsuki immediately frowned, his eyes flashing, and dispelled the impulse. He then placed his hands directly on her shoulders.

Snapped!

Kato Yuri was somewhat taken aback, clearly not expecting Natsuki to act like this suddenly. Thinking of how he had just acted involuntarily, she suddenly stuck out her tongue and licked her red lips, closed her eyes, and struck a pose as if she were ready to be taken.

The next second, she felt her whole body being lifted into the air. Just as the thought that Natsuki-sensei actually liked this kind of thing popped into her mind, she heard a "bang." When she opened her eyes again, Kato Yuri was already lying on the bed. She blinked, and even though she was full of doubts, she could only watch helplessly as Natsuki walked towards the door, waving to her before leaving.

"Miss Lily, if you don't mind, you can sleep in my bed for a while. You're welcome!"

"This……"

Kato Yuri never expected that she had used all her tricks and the man was about to "surrender," but he turned around and became a completely different person. As a famous beauty in Hokkaido, how could she be so easily ignored by men?

She hugged the pillow, breathing in the same scent as the man. The man's image seemed to reappear in her mind. When the passion reached its peak, her skin flushed, and her thighs couldn't help but rub against each other, the sensation was extremely intense!

"What a cool and aloof man... But, I don't know why, even though I know you're rejecting me, I actually... like you even more, hehe..."

A sly smile appeared on Kato Yuri's face. The lingering warmth from the pillow made her hug the man tighter, as if they were already embracing each other.

Kato Yuri couldn't explain why she had become like this. She only knew that when she first met Natsuki, she was attracted to the man. His words and unintentional actions seemed to have an invisible force that made her subconsciously pay attention to his behavior and everything related to him.

In fact, with her looks and figure, Kato Yuri is quite popular wherever she goes. Even Mikiko attracts the attention of many men whenever she appears. Because of this, Kato Yuri doesn't have much affection for the opposite sex. It wasn't until Natsuki appeared that a certain feeling called "touching" finally made Kato Yuri's heart react a little.

Natsuki might have thought that the flirtatious words the other person said to her at the beginning were mostly jokes, but only Kato Yuri knew that the words also contained her own feelings. However, Natsuki directly ignored her "attack," leaving her feeling quite dejected.

It wasn't until she arrived in Tokyo that she discovered that besides the three girls around Natsuki, Mikiko had also developed ambiguous feelings for men. However, because of Sayuri's presence, Mikiko did not reveal those feelings, but for Kato Yuri, this was undoubtedly quite obvious.

Later, after the Shibuya incident, in order to protect himself and Nanako, Natsuki left them in Tokyo. The image of him protecting the mother and daughter was also deeply imprinted in Kato Yuri's heart, making her feelings for men even stronger.

Finally, due to a chance encounter, she happened to witness Natsuki and Mikiko being intimate. Their similar circumstances made Kato Yuri unable to control her desire for Natsuki any longer. She only hoped that she could be treated specially by Natsuki, just like Mikiko!

Unfortunately, Xia Mu was not an ordinary man. Even when he tried to force himself on him, he was never able to succeed. His repeated attempts to seduce her even made her a little wary.

Even her daughter is puzzled by Kato Yuri's recent behavior, wondering why her mother has become like this. Perhaps only Kato Yuri knows the reason for this.

If it were the Kato Yuri of the past, she might also find it unbelievable that she is the way she is now. However, every time she sees Natsuki, her doubts turn directly into affection for the man, and no matter how he treats her, her thoughts do not change in the slightest.

Thinking of the man's face, Kato Yuri placed her fair hand on her chest again, and the next moment she couldn't help but let out a soft sound: "Mmm..."

Before Xia Mu even stepped into Tokyo Academy, he heard a series of lively sounds coming from inside. A banner was also specially erected at the entrance. Looking at the words on it, he realized that it was the time for the school festival!
