Sena Asakawa objected, saying, "For your safety, please allow me to stay by your side."

“…Tsk tsk tsk.”

Sitting opposite her, Shiori Shiomi clicked her tongue, revealing an expression of disbelief: "Genji, Genji, you always attract trouble from the ladies. Lust is a double-edged sword. Be careful that your romantic entanglements don't kill you."

"Hey, what kind of romantic entanglement is this? How can you blame me?"

Good luck, goodbye.

Shiori Shiomi chuckled softly, took a step forward, and vanished from the council hall in an instant.

Yuan Qing couldn't help but look surprised.

He was certain that Shiori Shiomi had not used teleportation magic.

The step the other party took was very similar to the "shrinking the earth to an inch" technique that the old king used back then!

Even after being weakened to this extent, that little loli is still incredibly powerful.

I can't even imagine how strong she must have been in her prime.

......

After the Moon Etching was completed and Asakawa Sena's accommodations were arranged, Gensei finally dragged his tired body home.

I thought Yuki Tsukishiro was already asleep, but as soon as I opened the bedroom door, the bedside lamp was turned on with a "snap".

Yuki leaned against the headboard, holding her phone. When she saw Yuanqing, the worry in her eyes immediately turned into a coquettish complaint.

"So you finally decided to come back?" She put down her phone and complained resentfully. "You left in such a hurry this afternoon and didn't even send a message all night. Do you know how worried I was? You could at least have replied!"

I went to the association to look for you, but I couldn't find you. Then I ran into Senior Red Sparrow, who told me you had something important to do. I didn't want to ask too many questions, so I came back.

At this point, she looked Yuan Qing up and down, her brows furrowing slightly: "You bastard, you look exhausted... like you've been masturbating all night."

"Stop using these nonsensical metaphors, you idiot."

Yuan Qing initially felt a little guilty, but upon hearing the following sentence, that guilt instantly turned into a strong sense of sarcasm.

He sighed, the events of the previous night unconsciously replaying in his mind.

From killing Kitano Gawa to waking up Asakawa Sena, and then to that physically and mentally exhausting meeting with the association's top leaders.

Even though only a few hours had passed, it felt like an eternity.

Yuan Qing quickly walked to the bedside, bent down and hugged her tightly, burying his face in the crook of her neck, which smelled faintly of shampoo.

Yuki Tsukishiro was taken aback by his sudden action.

Noticing the fatigue emanating from the other person's body, her little bit of resentment instantly vanished.

Immediately afterwards, a deep sense of heartache welled up from the bottom of her heart.

She gently hugged him back, patting his back softly, and asked tenderly, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Yuan Qing remained silent for a moment before speaking in a somewhat hoarse voice, briefly recounting the tragedy that Tsukimi Haruka and her mother had suffered, as well as his killing of Kitanogawa that night.

Of course, he omitted Asakawa Sena's revival and the internal meetings of the association, focusing only on the matter of revenge.

“...That’s it.” A savage glint flashed in Yuan Qing’s eyes as he said coldly, “That beast will no longer hurt anyone.”

Yuki Tsukishiro was terrified, and her arms involuntarily tightened.

She never imagined that Yuan Qing would do something so dangerous on his own, bearing such a heavy burden of revenge and killing.

She looked up, her eyes a little red, and with a mixture of heartache and annoyance, she lightly punched him:

"You...you idiot! Why didn't you tell me about something so dangerous? I could have helped you!"

Even if I'm not allowed to take action, at least, at least I can stay by your side!

Yuan Qing looked up and saw her reddened eyes. Her heart softened, and she reached out and gently pinched her cheek.

"But I just don't want you to get involved. I'll handle this kind of thing. You magical girls shouldn't have the blood of such beasts on your hands."

He paused, then solemnly assured her, "Yuki, I will not let you experience such pain, nor will I let you be tainted by impure air, absolutely not."

Yuki Tsukishiro was taken aback. Looking into Genji's burning eyes, all the words she wanted to say stuck in her throat.

She hugged him tighter, pressed her face against his chest, and gently complained, "...Next time, you can't carry this burden all by yourself, okay?"

"Hmm," Yuan Qing responded softly.

The two embraced and remained silent for a while. Yuki Tsukishiro seemed to have thought of something; her cheeks flushed slightly, and she whispered:

"Um... you must be exhausted tonight, so... let's not do it? Get some rest."

Yuan Qing was indeed exhausted, both physically and mentally. Hearing this, he forced a smile and nodded, "Okay, let's go to sleep."

There's a saying in the world: plans can't keep up with changes.

In the middle of the night, Yuan Qing was awakened from his sleep by the urge to urinate.

He tiptoed out of bed and went into the bathroom.

A little while later, he returned from the restroom and, by the faint moonlight streaming through the window, saw that Yuki Tsukishiro was fast asleep.

The white pajamas straps slipped down, revealing rounded shoulders and delicate, snow-white skin below the collarbone.

Her sleeping face was serene, her breathing even, and her graceful curves exuded an amazing charm.

Perhaps it was the rebound of her tense nerves after relaxing, or perhaps it was because she was too alluring under the moonlight, but Yuan Qing felt an uncontrollable surge of heat rising up.

He hesitated for a few seconds, but ultimately couldn't resist. He quietly climbed into bed and gently covered her with his body...

By the time everything calmed down, Yuki Tsukishiro had already fallen into a coma due to his unrestrained demands.

Looking at the person in his arms with a flushed face and a tired sleeping expression, Yuan Qing couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt.

This kind of thing seems to happen every night...

However, since this girl is so inexperienced, giving her more practice will ultimately benefit her.

They say that yang energy nourishes the body, so I'm using this to help my wife with beauty and skincare!

Yuan Qing shamelessly defended himself in his heart, then hugged Yuki's soft body tightly and fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, it was just dawn.

In his sleep, Yuan Qing vaguely sensed a familiar presence silently approaching the bedroom door and lingering outside.

Although he had no intention to kill, he was suddenly jolted awake and sat up alertly.

After confirming that Yuki was still fast asleep, he quietly got out of bed without even putting on slippers, and carefully went to the door and opened the bedroom door.

Yuan Qing was immediately stunned when he saw the person standing outside the door.

Sena Asakawa was standing quietly at the bedroom door, wearing a simple black knit sweater and slim-fitting trousers, and carrying a plastic bag from a convenience store.

Upon seeing Yuan Qing, she immediately took a step back, bowed slightly to him, and solemnly greeted him: "Good morning, Lord Yuan Qing. Have I disturbed you? Please forgive me."

"..."

Yuan Qing suddenly felt a sense of helplessness, not knowing how to respond.

No, this depraved function seems to have "after-sales service"?

Could an ordinary person, without training or instruction, be so deeply aware of their "guardian" role and so dedicated to it after just meeting someone?

"How did you get here? And how did you find me? I don't remember telling you my home address."

Yuan Qing lowered his voice and asked with some confusion, "Also, didn't I tell you to stay in the manor and not run around?"

"I can feel your presence through this bond with you."

Hoshina's expression was very serious as she answered methodically, "As your shadow guard, ensuring your safety is my primary responsibility."

I have learned from the president about the current situation of the Tarot Association and the magical girls.

I believe you need constant protection, so please forgive my unauthorized visit. I promise I will remain outside without disturbing you.

"...No need. This is my home. I can protect myself. I don't need you to stand guard at the door like a doorman."

Yuan Qing felt somewhat helpless.

He wasn't worried about her running around in the streets, since Asakawa Sena had already undergone a complete transformation and no longer possessed any magical energy fluctuations typical of magical girls or witches.

What's more, he gave this girl a "face-changing device" last night—

The face of a playful fate.

This is a special magical item worth a full 2 gold coins, which can change one's appearance at any time.

With her aura and appearance completely changed, Asakawa Sena is a completely different person from her former self, and no one could possibly recognize her.

Asakawa Sena remained unmoved by Gensei's refusal and silently handed over the plastic bag in her hand.

"what is this?"

Yuan Qing asked in confusion.

“I bought breakfast for you,” Sena Asakawa replied.

She paused, her gaze seemingly casually sweeping over the bedroom interior hidden from view by Yuan Qing, before adding:

"In addition, I previously sensed the presence of another person in your bedroom."

Considering your young age, there's a possibility you might have engaged in unprotected sex, so I also purchased emergency contraception, just in case.

"..."

"Rest assured, I will ensure your safety thoroughly and completely."

"..."

Looking at Asakawa Sena's serious expression that said "It's my duty, no need to be polite," and then glancing at the conspicuous little box inside the plastic bag, Yuan Qing felt a surge of anger and amusement.

Byd, safe sexual behavior is also safe, right?!

How can this possibly be protected?

Thankfully, at least the girl didn't suddenly pop out and offer herself to him while he and Yuki were doing serious business last night.

Otherwise, Yuan Qing would definitely have slapped her twice.

He took a deep breath, restraining his surging emotions, and said, word by word:

"Asakawa Sena, please obey my orders. Unless I call you, do not come here without permission and disturb my wife and me while we are sleeping!"

Asakawa Sena immediately knelt on one knee, head bowed, awaiting the order:

"Understood, Lord Yuanqing!"

"..."

Sigh, it's never a moment's peace.

That said, I always felt that after becoming a shadow guard, Asakawa Sena's dependence on me was a bit too exaggerated.

Although I understand it's out of duty, well...

We can't just have another one that's supposed to be oppressive, can we?

That would truly be a calamity for your romantic relationships!

Time quickly came to seven in the morning.

Yuanqing, who had taken a short nap, got up and washed before Yuecheng Yuki woke up from her sleep or coma, and then turned on the stove to prepare breakfast.

Asakawa Sena brought a single-serving breakfast, enough for him alone, so Yuki still needs to have breakfast made separately.

As for the box of pills, Yuanqing told her to take it back and return it.

Although he and Yuki Tsukishiro always launched a fierce attack with "five sets" of equipment, they had their own methods for security and didn't need these things.

The aroma of fried eggs and grilled sausages quickly wafted out, mingling with the steam from the instant miso soup, filling the small kitchen.

He plated the food and was about to fry the bacon when Yuki Tsukishiro suddenly appeared behind him, stood on tiptoe, hugged his waist from behind, rested her chin on his shoulder, and clung to him like a koala.

"Are you awake? Go wash up and get ready for breakfast," Yuan Qing said with a smile.

"No, I need to charge." Yuki Tsukishiro squinted, her voice still carrying the low nasal tone of someone who had just woken up, and rubbed her cheek against the other's neck.

"You call this charging? Okay, I'll turn off the stove and give you a proper charge."
