Yoshikage Kira immediately looked at her with a suspicious gaze.

"Kid, what kind of look is that?!"

Hiratsuka Shizuka angrily raised her fist, "Do you want me to be your mother?"

“I absolutely did not mean that.”

Yoshikage Kira raised his hands.

"So what do you mean?"

"Hiratsuka-sensei, besides my sister and mother, can't you imagine that you and I could have any other identities?"

"Besides my sister and mother..."

Hiratsuka Shizuka was slightly taken aback. Could it be her younger sister and grandmother? That would never do!

That's so embarrassing, she's not that old!

But if you remove these identities, what's left is just...

Hiratsuka Shizuka, seemingly lost in thought, bulged veins on her forehead, clenched her fist, and waved it in front of Kira Yoshikage:

"You want me to pretend to be your wife? You brat, don't take this joke too far!"

Kira looked at her with a hesitant expression, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't:

"Hiratsuka-sensei, didn't you ever consider the option of having a stranger as a guest?"

Hiratsuka Shizuka's expression froze at a visible speed before returning to calm.

"I go out for a while."

She stood up, quickly walked out of the office, entered the women's restroom next door, and closed the stall door.

Chapter 79 Damn it, you lowly woman!

Although school ends at 3:20, the worship time at Twilight Shrine starts at 5:00.

But some people are still willing to wait for two whole hours just to be able to visit this newly built shrine.

Saying it was just now is actually quite accurate.

Because the construction of this shrine took no more than a week from start to finish.

Such efficiency would be among the best in Japan.

In contrast to the speed of construction, the shrine is relatively small in scale, with only the necessary torii gate, stone steps, approach, purifying basin, and shrine hall, just meeting the minimum standards that a shrine should have.

Despite this, it did not dampen the students' enthusiasm.

Students from the mixed-gender college had already formed long queues on the approach to the temple, and those who arrived late couldn't even get through the torii gate.

In comparison, the benefits for students in pure academies are much better.

Because they could wait outside the temple.

"The Twilight Shrine?"

Kaguya Shinomiya stood at the very front of the procession, gazing up at the double eaves of the shrine, and muttering to herself.

She was involved in the entire process of building this shrine, since Lushan Construction, which was responsible for building the shrine, is now her business.

In fact, even Kaguya Shinomiya herself found this matter baffling.

Unlike Ministop, a small company with annual revenue of only 50 billion yen and annual profit of only 9 billion yen, Lushan Construction boasts an annual revenue of 1.7 trillion yen and an operating profit of over 130 billion yen. Such a company could barely be considered a giant even on a global scale, and is one of the core industries of the Shinomiya family.

Ministop could at least be considered compensation for her, but what about Lushan Construction?

Shinomiya Un'taka was undoubtedly the mastermind behind this incident, but neither the share transfer nor the construction of the shrine could have been completed without Shinomiya Gan'an's approval. Therefore, for the Shinomiya family, this matter inevitably involved their core interests.

For Shinomiya Un'taka, the construction of the shrine can also be considered an achievement, which can effectively enhance his influence.

However, Shinomiya Gan'an clearly did not want Shinomiya Un'taka to grow too powerful easily, so he handed over the company that was in charge of building the shrine to Shinomiya Kaguya.

She did nothing wrong, yet benefits kept coming her way.

As for the purpose of building the shrine, Kaguya Shinomiya had a vague guess, perhaps it was related to what she saw at the bottom of the lake.

But what exactly is that thing?

Is it an evil spirit?

If it is an evil spirit, why did the Shinomiya family only discover it now, and only now build a shrine?

Besides, wasn't that evil spirit already destroyed? Why build a shrine after the evil spirit has been destroyed? Isn't that like locking the barn door after the horse has bolted?

when!

As the first bell rang at dusk, Chairman Shinomiya Un'taka and the principal entered the worship hall together.

When Kaguya Shinomiya entered the worship hall, Untaka Shinomiya had already left via a side path. Despite knowing very little about the shrine, Kaguya Shinomiya still earnestly offered her prayers and performed the rituals.

After completing the ritual of two bows, two pats, and one bow, Kaguya Shinomiya straightened up, preparing to leave the prayer hall. But as soon as she looked up, she saw a girl in a black sailor uniform standing on the right side of the prayer hall, watching them with great interest.

Who is that?

A hint of suspicion flashed in Kaguya Shinomiya's eyes. That was clearly not a Shuchiin Academy uniform. How did she get in?

Everyone else was worshipping, so why was she able to stand out like this?

Seeing her friend standing there in a daze, the pink-haired girl next to her followed her gaze but found nothing, which made her a little curious:

"Kaguya, what are you looking at?"

Kaguya Shinomiya was slightly taken aback, suddenly realizing that Chika Fujiwara couldn't see the girl. But when she looked up again, she found the girl staring straight at her.

"She's surprised. Surprised about what? Surprised that I can see her?"

Kaguya Shinomiya's heart tightened, and she dared not meet her gaze again. She hurriedly lowered her head and quickly fled from the worship hall.

Nagisa Kashiwagi, who had been silently observing Kaguya Shinomiya, chased after her from the worship hall and whispered in her ear:

"Kaguya, we need to talk."

"This school is truly a place where hidden talents abound!"

Geng Xizi's gaze gradually became somewhat subtle as she murmured to herself.

According to Kira-kun's theory, psionic talent levels can be roughly divided into 24 levels.

Among these twenty-four levels of psionic talent, the most common ones can be roughly divided into six levels.

In modern society, most people belong to level six, meaning they do not exhibit any psychic abilities.

Level 5 possesses a low level of talent, but even such a person is one in ten thousand; there are probably only twelve thousand such people in all of Japan.

However, this low-level talent is usually difficult to show, only manifesting under high pressure such as death, and their talent is limited to 'seeing' evil spirits rather than truly utilizing psychic power. For these people, not seeing is often more blissful than seeing.

Those with a level 4 or higher psychic talent can be considered true psychics, but even among level 4 psychics, there are only a few dozen in all of Japan.

A level 4 psionic talent possesses a moderate level of psionic ability and can control and use their own abilities through personal effort.

Level 3 psychic talent often manifests in psychics in their childhood, while the probability of Level 2 psychic talent appearing is only one in a billion, and there are only a handful of such individuals in the entire world!

As for Level 1 and higher PLUS levels, they currently only exist in theory, and thankfully, only in theory. Because if such an entity were to emerge, it would often mean the inevitable destruction of the entire world!

During her recent visit to the shrine, Geng Xizi discovered that at least three girls could see her.

In addition to Kira-kun, Yukino Yukinoshita, the Nakano Five Sisters, and her free-spirited shrine maiden, there are at least eleven psychics!

This ratio doesn't match Kira-kun's theory at all!

"No wonder so many evil spirits break in every day."

Geng Xizi sighed with some distress. So many psychics were like a walking Manchu Han Imperial Feast to evil spirits. How could they not be tempted?

She has been busy clearing away evil spirits these past few days, and most of the divine power she had painstakingly accumulated has been used up. If she does it a few more times, she will probably be completely drained.

Fortunately, Kira-kun didn't lie to her; becoming a god was indeed her best option.

When the shrine was completed, Yuuko sensed in the darkness that the surrounding spiritual energy began to gather and form a barrier. When students and teachers came to the shrine to worship, Yuuko could also feel a power that could perhaps be called 'faith' slowly restoring her 'divine power'.

As humanity's 'faith' poured in, she seemed to be connected with something great in the dark, and she knew that it was the Supreme Heaven that Yoshikage Kira spoke of.

At the same time that she sensed the Supreme Heaven, the Supreme Heaven seemed to also be aware of her presence and was actively imparting 'knowledge' to her.

That was the knowledge she needed to become a 'god'.

It was this knowledge that made Geng Xizi realize for the first time what the so-called 'gods' really meant.

Right now, Yuko is swimming in the ocean of 'knowledge,' absorbing everything she can understand with the thirst of a newborn.

If you were to ask what Yuko still has to complain about, it would probably be her incompetent shrine maiden—why does she spend all her time with other women when she's supposed to be her shrine maiden?

"Sorry to keep you waiting, get in the car!"

In the parking lot outside Shuchiin Academy, Hiratsuka Shizuka sat in her beloved Toyota Land Cruiser, rolled down the window, and waved to Kira Yoshikage.

Just as Yoshikage Kira walked towards the back row, Shizuka Hiratsuka spoke again:

"Sit in the passenger seat."

Yoshikage Kira didn't argue. He opened the passenger door and got in, because he knew that the female teacher was surprisingly stubborn in some ways, and that the consequences of both of them being stubborn were often not good for either of them.

Hiratsuka Shizuka stepped on the gas, driving the car out of the parking lot as she asked:

"address?"

“MINNA.” Yoshikage Kira fastened his seatbelt, his gaze falling on the woman’s hands as she turned the steering wheel.

"Ok?"

Upon hearing the address given by Yoshikage Kira, Shizuka Hiratsuka immediately turned her head, her gaze towards Yoshikage Kira incredibly dangerous. "I remember it being a host club, isn't it?"

Yoshikage Kira looked suspicious, then took the initiative:

"How did Hiratsuka-sensei know that was a host club? Have you been there before?"

Hiratsuka Shizuka's forehead veins bulged as she said irritably:

"You brat, who do you think you are? Have you ever read 'Dream of the Red Chamber'? There's a line in it that says, 'Even if you haven't eaten pork, you've seen pigs run!'"
