The King of Elden's Multiverse Life

The girl looked at the scene in the store happily and nodded, "That's right, I've never experienced this before. I already know how to describe a typical couple's date scene, but I still want to experience it myself so I can describe it better and more in detail! Let's go, Luo Yu-jun, there are only four people left in line!"

After waiting in line for about ten minutes, it was finally their turn.

After entering the store and sitting down, Kasumigaoka Utaha did not hesitate and ordered a couple's set meal from the staff. Then, she rested her chin on her hands and smiled as she looked at Luo Yu sitting opposite her.

Looking at the girl's charming face, Luo Yu smiled and said, "Aren't you going to do any research? There are so many couples here, why aren't you observing them, instead of just staring at me?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha nodded: "There's no rush to gather material. After all, it's quite rare to see you, Luo Yu-kun. It's been a week since I came back from the Totsuki Resort. I need to see you more often; you're a feast for the eyes!"

"It feels weird to hear that when it's said to me, like I'm being teased."

Since Kasumigaoka Utaha wasn't looking, Luo Yu simply turned around and started observing on her own. This was a shop that many couples frequented, but Luo Yu had never been there before.

Even when I took Yukino and Lani out on dates, they wouldn't choose dessert shops that advertised couple sets; they preferred shops with better-tasting desserts.

Judging from the expressions of the couples in the store, the food must taste pretty good.

I just don't know if it will satisfy my appetite, which is used to eating desserts made by Momoko Akane.

Speaking of Momoko Akane, Luo Yu realized that he had never met her yet. He should find an opportunity to meet her and give her a gift, since she was someone who often made desserts for them.

The girl likes cute things, so let's prepare some of those, plus a rare dessert recipe, and give it to her.

Soon, the couple's set meal was served. It was a large platter that mixed several kinds of desserts. It tasted pretty good, and Luo Yu and Kasumigaoka Utaha both enjoyed it.

After taking a bite herself, seeing the interactions between the couples around her, Kasumigaoka Utaha's eyes lit up. She scooped up some ice cream with a spoon and brought it to Luo Yu's lips.

"Luo Yu-jun, ah~~~"

Luo Yu didn't expect Kasumigaoka Utaha to take the initiative to feed him, but he wasn't a shy person, and he had experienced similar things before, so he simply opened his mouth and ate it without hesitation.

"Hmm, it tastes pretty good. Try this mango flavor."

As she spoke, she scooped up a spoonful of mango pudding and brought it to Kasumigaoka Utaha's lips.

"Ugh?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha was somewhat taken aback by Luo Yu's straight shot.

Luo Yu smiled and said, "It's a couple's set meal, isn't that normal?"

The girl opened her mouth, ate what Luo Yu offered, her cheeks puffed out slightly, and looked at Luo Yu, saying, "Luo Yu-kun, you're so skilled."

"Isn't this normal? You know what kind of person I am."

"Ugh, but I'm still a little annoyed. Why did I only get to know you so late?"

While enjoying their dessert, Luo Yu smiled and said, "Well, what can I do? I live in Chiba. If I had lived in Tokyo from the beginning, I might have met you sooner. But it's not too late now. At least we're sitting here together having a date, right? Don't dwell too much on the past. Focusing on the present and the future is a better choice."

"That's true."

After eating some more dessert and feeding Luo Yu another bite, Kasumigaoka Utaha opened her phone and handed Luo Yu a partially written copy of the novel she had saved on it.

"Look, these are what I wrote, and the outline for volume three. I didn't even give them to editor Machida!"

Kasumigaoka Utaha shook her head slightly and said, "There's no other way. I originally wanted to show it to Editor Machida, but she's been busy going on blind dates these past few days. To avoid seeing her sour face after her failed blind date, I'll go to the paperback station in a few days."

Luo Yu, who hadn't even read two lines of the original manuscript, said helplessly, "She hasn't even gone on the blind date yet, and you already think she'll fail?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha shrugged and said, "It was bound to happen sooner or later, wasn't it? This isn't the first time she's gone on a blind date. Ever since she became my editor, I've seen her fail at blind dates a total of five times. And that doesn't even include the number of times other editors have secretly told me about her failed blind dates in the past."

"Tsk tsk, is the failure rate for older single women on blind dates really that high these days? Editor Machida is quite good-looking, isn't she?"

"It has nothing to do with looks. The main reason is that the men she goes on blind dates with want to find someone willing to be a housewife. Editor Machida loves her job and doesn't want to give it up even after getting married. Plus, she has a very direct personality, so she hasn't been able to find anyone suitable for blind dates. Another reason is also related to her appearance. She is quite good-looking herself, so she naturally doesn't want to find someone who is much less attractive than herself."

After saying that, Kasumigaoka Utaha continued to admire Luo Yu's good looks.

Compared to Machida Sonoko, I'm actually quite lucky!

Chapter 244 Nura Clan Headquarters, Attending a Banquet (2/2)

After finishing their dessert, Luo Yu and Kasumigaoka Utaha strolled around the shopping street for a while, and it was almost evening.

Following Luo Yu to the roadside, Kasumigaoka Utaha asked curiously, "Luo Yu-kun, where are you taking me for dinner?"

Looking at the sky, Luo Yu said, "Let's go to the Nura Clan. Nura Nurarihyon told me before that when I come to Tokyo, I should visit him so he can treat me to dinner and we can talk about some things. Since I'm here today, let's do it together. We'll have somewhere to go for dinner, okay?"

"Are we going to the Nura Clan's headquarters?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha's eyes lit up.

Although she knew that Tokyo was Nura Clan territory, Kasumigaoka Utaha had never seen any yokai, except for the old man Nura Nurarihyon.

This is a rare opportunity to go to the Nura Clan's headquarters, I can't let it slip by.

Three minutes later, a car stopped in front of the two of them, and Karasu Tengu Taketaka, dressed in a light-colored kimono, opened the car door and got out.

"Good afternoon, Luo Yujun."

Luo Yu smiled and nodded: "Hello, it's been a long time. Can I bring one more person with me today?"

Looking at Kasumigaoka Utaha, Taketsumi said, "This must be Ms. Kasumigaoka, right? Hello, I'm Taketsumi, a member of the Nura Clan and a member of the Tengu Party. Welcome to the Nura Clan."

Kasumigaoka Utaha curiously observed Takemi and nodded, saying, "Hello, nice to meet you."

Then, Luo Yu led Kasumigaoka Utaha into the car.

The car started and headed towards the Nura Clan's main residence. Luo Yu was chatting with Zhu Zhu Mei.

After that day, the Nura Clan wasn't affected much, was it?

While driving, Takemi replied, "It had no impact. After all, it was monsters from the four countries attacking. We were just on the defensive. Besides, the Nura Clan monsters always stick to their duties and don't harm ordinary people without reason. After the battle, we quickly cleaned up the battlefield and withdrew. The officials and the Jujutsu Association, including the Commander-in-Chief, were easily dealt with. I'm also very grateful for your help, Luo Yu-kun. Without you, the battle wouldn't have ended so quickly, and it would have been difficult to handle if multiple people had come."

"That's quite a coincidence. Who told Yu Zhang to send people to the Far Moon Resort to try and arrest someone?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was standing nearby, asked curiously, "Are there really that many conflicts between youkai organizations?"

Takemi explained, "There were quite a few a hundred years ago, but in recent years, with the development of human technology and the decrease in yokai legends, yokai that use fear as a source of power have also become less active. Some have hidden themselves in the deep mountains and forests, while others, like our Nura Clan, run human industries, integrate into this world, and at the same time secretly manage the areas where yokai live. However, after living in peace for a long time, some people will inevitably become restless, just like that Tamamo."

Luo Yu nodded and said, "That's right. Some people are born with ambition, and with the instigation of those around them, they end up like this. Wouldn't it have been better for him to be a peaceful prince in Shikoku? Even without my intervention, that guy wouldn't have succeeded. However, if Gojo Satoru were to make a move against those two slippery old men, Nura and Nura Rikuo, he wouldn't last more than a few rounds."

With Gojo Satoru's strength, dealing with a tamagumo would be a piece of cake, even if he were wielding the Demon King's Hammer; it wouldn't pose any threat to Gojo Satoru.

When Gojo Satoru was mentioned, Luo Yu pondered how the Jujutsu Kaisen storyline was progressing.

Logically, the next part should be the story of Itadori Yuujin encountering a special-grade cursed spirit, dying briefly, being resurrected, and then being hidden away by Gojo Satoru for special training.

However, the situation on the Panxing Sect has changed due to Luo Yu's appearance, and he directly eliminated the Special Grade Curse Spirit Master. It is unknown whether this will affect the subsequent developments.

Okay, I'll call Gojo Satoru tonight and ask him. Last time at the Totsuki Resort, he had breakfast with his students and then left, so I didn't have a chance to ask him about the specifics.

A dozen minutes later, the car stopped in front of an old Japanese-style house.

The nameplate "Nura" indicates that the house belongs to Nura.

After getting off the bus, Kasumigaoka Utaha looked around and said in surprise, "Does this place even have such a big house? It's not far from the city center."

Luo Yu explained from the side, "We used a method to distract ordinary people, so that they would overlook this place when they passed by. After all, this is the headquarters of the Nura Clan, and yokai come and go every day. If too many people pay attention, it will be easy to be exposed."

"Oh, I see."

Led by Takemi, Luo Yu and Kasumigaoka Utaha stepped into the Nura Clan.

Although it is an old mansion, the courtyard is very well decorated, making people feel very comfortable as soon as they enter. The trees, small ponds, and various landscaping arrangements all show the owner's care.

When Kasumigaoka Utaha looked at the pond, she noticed a small head popping out.

With an eggshell-shaped object on its head, a pair of curious eyes stared at Luo Yu and Kasumigaoka Utaha.

Luo Yu looked over and said, "Kappa, right? I saw you among the combatants that night."

The kappa nodded, stood up, and said, "Hello, Mr. Luo Yu, welcome to the Nura Clan."

Kasumigaoka Utaha looked at the other person curiously and said, "The legendary kappa! It's so different from the pictures in the yokai biographies I've read!"

Upon hearing this, the kappa tilted its head and said, "I know what you mean by that. It is indeed quite ugly. Some kappas do look like that, but we are the same species. It's just that our appearance is greatly influenced by our parents' looks and the environment we grow up in. People like me are more suitable to disguise ourselves as humans when we are out in the world."

Kasumigaoka Utaha nodded, feeling that she had learned a lot of interesting knowledge.

After saying goodbye to the kappa, the three continued forward and arrived at the main house of the Nura Clan. There they met Nura Nurarihyon, who was waiting for them, as well as the third generation Nura Rikuo, who had returned from school in his human form.

In his human form, Rikuo Nura is completely different from his yokai form. He is a well-behaved-looking boy with glasses, and he has none of the fierceness he has when he transforms into a yokai.

Seeing Luo Yu bring Kasumigaoka Utaha over, Nurarihyon took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "You kid, every time I see you, you're always with at least one girl by your side. You're really consistent."

Chapter 245 The Nura Family's Dinner (1/2)

Luo Yu was too lazy to explain this stereotype about Nurarihyon, and it seemed to be true that he was always accompanied by a number of girls.

Luo Yu shrugged and said, "I'm glad the old man doesn't mind me bringing people over for a free meal."

Nurarihyon laughed and said, "Hahaha, how could I mind? I love a lively atmosphere! Kasumigaoka Utaha, right? Don't be nervous, little girl. Just treat it as a normal trip. There are a lot of yokai here, they might pop up from time to time, so don't get scared."

Kasumigaoka Utaha nodded: "Thank you for your hospitality."

After everyone sat down, Yuki-onna Oikawa Hyouri, dressed in a white kimono, came in with a cup of freshly brewed tea and served it to Luo Yu and Kasumigaoka Utaha.

Looking at Oikawa Hyouri kneeling down beside her, Kasumigaoka Utaha asked curiously, "Are you a youkai too?"

Oikawa Hyouri smiled and nodded: "That's right, I am a Yuki-onna."

As he spoke, a chill emanated from his body.

"The snow woman, it seems, is just as the legend says, the snow women are all very beautiful."

Kasumigaoka Utaha had to admit that although Oikawa Hirei looked somewhat young, her fair skin and delicate features made her a top-tier beauty.

After giving a smile, Oikawa Hirei took the plate and left the reception room.

After taking a sip of tea, Luo Yu looked at the somewhat reserved Nurarihyon.

"This is the first time we've met under these circumstances, isn't it? Hello, Rikuo Nura."

Nura Rikuo nodded: "Hello, Luo Yu-kun, thank you for your help last time."

"It seems that although the personality changes a lot after the transformation, the memories are shared." Luo Yu smiled and looked at him, saying, "Cultivate well. Your strength is not enough. You may not have much of a problem dealing with Yu Zhang, but his strength is not even close to the top. In Tokyo alone, there are more people stronger than Yu Zhang than you can count on one hand."

"Huh? Really?"

Nura Rikuo was quite surprised, and then looked at his grandfather.

Nurarihyon took a bite of sweets and nodded, saying, "That's true. As for yokai, you know very well the strength of the great yokai in the Nura Clan, like Gyuki. And on the human side, sorcerers are a huge group now, and the top-tier sorcerers are quite strong. Even some level-one sorcerers with special abilities can get injured if you're not careful. So if you're facing a human sorcerer, Rikuo, you'd better be careful. Well, as for onmyoji, there's not much to say. There aren't many skilled onmyoji in Tokyo; they're all in Kyoto."

After saying that, Nurarihyon smiled and curled his lip, which showed his disdain for those Onmyoji.

Luo Yu laughed and said, "Aren't there fewer Onmyoji here because you kicked them all out?"

"Haha, you guessed it! It really was me!"

Slapping his thigh, Nurarihyon laughed and said, "After settling down and establishing our headquarters here, I immediately drove out all the Onmyoji from Kanto. Anyway, with the Nura Clan here, no small yokai dare to cause trouble. In fact, things are developing even better than when those Onmyoji were protecting us."

Luo Yu smiled and shook his head: "As expected of you."

Then, Luo Yu also chatted with Nurarihyon about the yokai in Shikoku.

Ten minutes later, the door to the reception room opened, and a woman with short hair, dressed in a light yellow kimono, walked in and said with a smile, "Everyone, dinner is ready!"

Then the woman looked at Luo Yu and said, "You must be Luo Yu-kun. Thank you for your help last time. I am Rikuo's mother, Nura Wakana."

Luo Yu smiled and nodded: "Hello, sorry to bother you."

Kasumigaoka Utaha also looked at Nura Wakana with curiosity.

Is this Nura Rikuo's mother? Is she the only human here?

As Kasumigaoka Utaha was observing Nura Wakana, the lady also looked at her, and Kasumigaoka Utaha quickly introduced herself.

Nura Wakana smiled and nodded, then looked at her and Luo Yu with a gossipy expression and said, "She's such a pretty girl. Are you two dating?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha's cheeks flushed slightly: "Not yet."

"Oh dear, so that means it'll happen sooner or later? You'd better work hard! I was your age back then, and I met Rihan. It's just a pity that Rikuo, despite being good-looking, is too introverted. He doesn't dare to make a move on girls he likes. What will the Nura family do in the future..."

Upon hearing his mother's words, Nura Rikuo cried out in shame and indignation, "Mom, don't tell everyone everything!!!"

Nurarihyon stood up with a laugh: "Hahaha, let's not talk about this anymore, let's go eat first."

Upon arriving at the main dining room, one finds a large number of yokai residing at headquarters already gathered there, including Takemi, who brought Luo Yu and Kasumigaoka Utaha, as well as the kappa encountered upon entering.

After sitting down, Luo Yu glanced at Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was sitting there, and then took out a coat and covered her legs.

"This way you can relax a bit; sitting like this for a long time is very tiring."

Kasumigaoka Utaha nodded happily, changed her sitting posture, and sat sideways, which made her look much more relaxed.

She hasn't been to a place like this, where everything is tatami, for quite a while.

After all the yokai had arrived, dinner was served one after another. Each person received a sumptuous and exquisite Japanese meal, which looked delicious.
