The girl originally thought that she would be severely reprimanded by Xia Mu, and even thought that she might not be able to fight alongside Xia Mu in the future. But now it seems that things are developing in a way that is different from what she expected.

Xia Mu was unaware that Shiroshima was feeling somewhat confused about the current situation; he simply continued speaking with a serious expression.

"Whether it's a [sacred artifact] or anything else, it's ultimately just a tool, an external possession. To me, your own lives are a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand times more important than such things, even immeasurable!"

“If things break, they break, and I won’t be heartbroken at all. But if one of you is in mortal danger, that’s the thing I can’t bear the most. Do you understand?”

Are Xia Mu's words truly heartfelt?

For him, the time spent with Sayuri, Shiroshima, and Rika had given him a warmth he had never felt before. The deep care he felt for them went beyond the feelings he had for ordinary students.

During each battle, Xia Mu even wished he could take the girl's place and bear all the danger himself.

However, he was also quite clear that the girl's situation was completely different from the past. He alone could not face those unknown enemies. This was the reason why Xia Mu gave the girl the sacred artifact and even spared no effort to enhance her power!

Even so, Xia Mu felt extremely guilty every time the girl was in danger, which led to the heartfelt expression of his feelings above.

As he spoke, an invisible wave surged into the hearts of both of them.

Looking at the man's serious expression, even though she wasn't directly involved, Sayuri couldn't help but touch the little bear clip on her head, muttering to herself, "So... in Natsuki-sensei's heart... Sayuri is that important... does she exist...? Hehehe..."

For Shiroshima, Natsuki's words were even more shocking, and glistening tears slowly welled up in her eyes, which reflected the man's face.

Finally, the girl could no longer hold back. She reached out and hugged Xia Mu, buried her head in his chest, and burst into tears.

"Waaaaah... Natsuki-sensei... Shirashima understands... It won't happen again..."

"Mmm...it's okay..."

Xia Mu gently patted Shiroshima's back. The girl's past feigned strength was in stark contrast to her current appearance, making him feel even more tender towards her, his expression filled with affection.

As a result, this heartwarming scene caused Sayuri to breathe heavily, her little tiger teeth slightly showing, and her teeth clenched as if she was suppressing something.

However, thinking of what had just happened, Sayuri let out a breath, then gently turned her head and said in a voice only she could hear, "This time, I'll reluctantly let you have it!"

The girl's crying lasted only a few minutes. When she looked up again and saw that the man's shirt was soaked with her own sweat, revealing his unusually prominent muscles, her cheeks instantly flushed.

"I'm sorry, Natsuki-sensei, Shiroshima didn't mean it..."

"fine."

Xia Mu chuckled, helping the girl up as he continued softly, "Since the [Sacred Artifact] has been destroyed, I'll make you a new one. Speaking of which, I think the previous batch is still around; I wonder if there are any left..."

In his memory, he had once tried to forge a batch of simplified holy artifacts in order to hone his holy light power. Although they were only initial versions, they were probably enough as a transitional item.

Of course, if even stronger enemies may appear in the future, even if it is given to Shiroshima, it would still be necessary to reactivate its [Sacred Artifact] with new abilities, just like Sayuri did. At that time, the ability would be enhanced, and the girl in front of him would not have to go through such a dangerous situation as tonight again, right?

Thinking this, Xia Mu slowly turned her head, intending to look at her room, but what she saw before her was—

The surrounding black mist was gradually dissipating, and the faint moonlight once again descended upon this land. In the middle of the road, a huge crack was clearly visible. As one followed the crack, a house was split in two, and the things inside were so familiar—it was clearly their own home!

Am I... dreaming?

Xia Mu's lips twitched slightly.

The next second, memories flooded back. He recalled that at the very beginning of the battle that night, he and Sayuri were at home, having just begun the [Holy Light Forging] process, when the Illuminati member suddenly arrived and sliced ​​his house in two. The ensuing battle further devastated the already damaged house—

"hiss!!!"

Xia Mu gasped, then, under the astonished gazes of the two girls, a look of despair crossed his face: "How could this be..."

……

Chapter 108 Mizuno's Invitation

"...That's how it is."

Xia Mu spoke with his eyes closed, while a pair of jade-like hands gently pressed on his temples.

The next shot reveals a deep, unfathomable chasm. As the woman bends down, one can even vaguely see the purple clothing hidden beneath her white coat.

At this moment, he was in the school clinic, and a sexy school doctor in a white coat was massaging his head, her face occasionally flashing a bright smile, as if they were getting along very well.

Xia Mu wasn't sure when it started, but he began visiting the school clinic more frequently, sometimes once every two days or even once a day. When he was in the school clinic, his mood seemed to become calm. Such complaints were common in the past.

"You look so pitiful. So, does Natsuki-sensei have nowhere to go now?"

Mizuno chuckled, and upon hearing this, Natsuki immediately opened his eyes, saying with a helpless expression, "Probably. Who would have thought... that guy from the Illuminati... would appear so suddenly?"

Perhaps it was due to past experiences, or perhaps it was the unusual feeling that Mizuno brought to Mai, Mikiko, and the others, but Natsuki would unconsciously lower her guard when chatting with Mizuno.

Furthermore, after revealing the matter of the Illuminati, the burden on his heart was greatly reduced, so Xia Mu simply went with the flow and told the other party about what had happened the night before.

Thinking about this, Xia Mu was quite speechless. In a battle of that scale last night, only his house was damaged and the path was destroyed. As for the surrounding environment, it was not greatly affected.

Although this is already a very lucky result, in the end, only their own house became the victim. Isn't that just too unlucky?

Fortunately, the arrival of the official organization later determined that the impact of the incident was a minor earthquake. In addition, considering the insurance that Xia Mu had previously purchased for the house and his status as a teacher, the local government, after some consideration, decided to help Xia Mu with the repairs, which saved him a lot of money.

As for the simple [sacred artifact] he had previously crafted, it disappeared after the battle, and no matter how hard he searched, he couldn't find it, which made Xia Mutou feel pain.

In addition, the official repairs were clearly not something that could be completed in a short time, and the thought of being homeless in the future made him feel even more depressed.

Unexpectedly, right after he finished speaking, Mizuno suddenly stopped what he was doing and bent forward, revealing a glimpse of snow-white skin to Natsuki's eyes. This strong visual impact made his heart beat faster.

"Mizuno-sensei, what's wrong...?"

"Teacher Xia Mu..."

As Mizuno spoke, he slowly approached Natsuki. This ambiguous action brought the scene closer and closer, and he could even faintly smell the fragrance of her breath. If he had to describe it, it would be very similar to the scent of milk!

Gudong!

Natsuki couldn't help but swallow, and just as he was about to say something, he heard Mizuno say with a laugh:

"Teacher Xia Mu, if you don't mind, you can come and stay with me for a while. Although my house isn't very big, it should be more than enough for two people. What do you think?"

"???"

Natsuki hadn't expected Mizuno to extend such a simple and direct invitation. Moreover, as Mizuno spoke, a faint fragrance lingered in his nostrils, which suddenly conjured up some erotic images in his mind.

In particular, the way the women in each scene looked at him with such deep affection overlapped with Mizuno's gaze at that moment, and Natsuki admitted that he was indeed somewhat moved!

Before Natsuki could speak, Mizuno looked up, lightly touched her lips with her index finger, and said with a somewhat helpless expression, "I almost forgot, some relatives are coming to visit recently, so it might be inconvenient for a while. I'm sorry, Natsuki-sensei, I probably can't help you!"

"Cough cough, it's nothing, it's nothing."

Natsuki coughed a few times and said earnestly, "Mr. Mizuno, you're very kind. I'm already very grateful for your invitation. Besides, as a grown man, it might not be appropriate for me to go to your house like this..."

Halfway through his sentence, Mizuno suddenly reached out and touched Natsuki's lips, smiling as he looked at her with a puzzled expression. "Natsuki-sensei, do you think I'm afraid you'll eat me up? Rather, I, Mizuno, have actually been looking forward to that kind of thing for a long time, and maybe...hehehe..."

"Mizuno..."

Xia Mu's throat tightened again. Looking at the other woman's alluring expression, a fire ignited within him without any wind. If they weren't currently in the school infirmary, he might already be—

"Speaking of which, if Mai-sensei knew about Natsuki-sensei, she would probably want Natsuki-sensei to come to her home even more than I do, right?"

Mizuno suddenly mentioned Mai's name, instantly extinguishing the desire that had already ignited in Natsuki. Seeing a playful glint in her eyes, he gave Mizuno a sharp look at her snow-white chest before closing his eyes again.

"I don't want her to worry too much."

With just a short sentence, Mizuno sensed the complex emotions Natsuki was feeling. She withdrew her playful gaze and looked at the man with a hint of heartache in her eyes.

Since that incident, her friendship with Mai has grown rapidly. She often sees deep affection in Mai's eyes when she mentions Natsuki. She has no doubt that Natsuki occupies a very important place in Mai's heart, perhaps even more so than herself.

However, seeing Natsuki's heavy expression, Mizuno realized that Mai was also very important to Natsuki, which was why she chose to take on all the responsibilities to avoid making Mai worry too much. This was the main reason why she felt sorry for the man.

With a slight sigh, Mizuno felt she had to do something. Her gaze moved over the man and finally settled on his hands.

Without hesitation, Mizuno took the man's hand and placed it on her chest. Amidst the man's shocked expression, she spoke firmly:

"Ms. Natsuki, I'm sorry!"

"Just now... Mizuno accidentally brought this up. To express my apology, please don't hold back and unleash your primal desires!"

"???"

Xia Mu's eyes widened, his gaze shifting between the hand and the other person's face, momentarily at a loss for how to react.

Just as they reached the doorway, a "click" sound suddenly came, followed by a familiar voice: "Miko-sensei, is Natsuki-sensei here???"

"Sa...Sayuri?"

Natsuki gasped, and as he turned his head, he saw Mizuno sticking out her pink tongue, saying in a playful tone, "Sorry, I forgot to lock the door..."

……

Chapter 109: The First Time...

clap clap clap!

Two figures were walking on the left and right sides of the corridor.

The man had white curly hair, while the woman's playful twin ponytails swayed together as she walked. Despite her young age, her chest already showed signs of budding curves, making her quite a striking sight in this Tokyo academy.

Unfortunately, since it was lunchtime, not many people were able to appreciate the beautiful scenery. The girl kept pouting slightly, and her glances to the side seemed to reveal a hint of unhappiness.

Xia Mu scratched his head, feeling rather helpless about the sudden scene that had just occurred. Heaven knows that Mizuno would do such a thing, and who knew that Sayuri would suddenly appear at this awkward moment?

For some reason, even though their relationship was clearly that of a normal teacher and student (in Natsuki's eyes), he inexplicably felt like he'd been caught cheating. After thinking for a moment, he finally spoke up: "Sayuri, don't misunderstand. There's nothing between Mizuno-sensei and me..."

Before he could finish speaking, the girl suddenly stopped and turned around to face Xia Mu, saying, "Teacher Xia Mu!"

"Ok?"

Staring directly at by the girl, as if sensing the burning anger within her, Xia Mu couldn't help but shift his gaze to the side. However, remembering his identity, he still forced himself to meet the girl's gaze.

“Ms. Natsuki, I know that as a normal adult male, you must have physiological needs, and Sayuri is well aware of that!”

"..."

“Sayuri is well aware of what happened in the school clinic just now. The key issue is—Sayuri will be your wife in the future. If you can't resist, you can do it now…”

"Stop! Stop! Stop!"

Xia Mu quickly raised his hand, stopping the girl from saying what was about to come out. The momentary softness made him pause slightly, and the girl also showed a surprised expression.

"Ahem, I didn't mean to, but Sayuri, you..."

Just as Xia Mu was about to explain, a determined look flashed across the girl's face. She then placed her hand on his shoulder and pushed him away forcefully!

boom!

Whoosh!
