Lying flat in the newly completed shrine, the girl whose body was covered by a soft futon slowly opened her slightly heavy eyelids. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"This is ... Where, so strange... It's a little familiar... ”

Slowly stretch out your palms towards the sunlight streaming through the wooden window railings, and spread your fingers to block out the harsh sunlight. Without the stimulation of the bright light, Hakuri Kami, who was gradually returning to consciousness, sensed that something seemed wrong from the clothes that wrapped her body. It was not at all the texture of the tattered burlap clothes before, and even the most perfect cloth in Kaminaki's impression could not match the fabric that was close to his skin at the moment.

Nestled over the arm that blocks the sun, it is a crisp white sleeve with a bright red ribbon at the back of the cuff that is tightly tied at the elbow. Sensing something through the tactile feeling of the sleeves, Hakurei immediately got up from the soft bed. As the thick futon slipped off her body, Hakurei finally confirmed with her eyes what she was wearing. Silk threads made from unknown materials combine simple fabrics to form a simple garment with white as the main color on the upper body. The lower body is covered by a bright red over-the-knee pleated skirt, and the combination of red and white tones is simple and simple, but it gives Hakurei a solemn and solemn feeling.

"This, I, when the hell was this worn? Also, the hair seems to be tied together by something, and I can't take it off... ”

If you look at it from a perspective other than Hakurei Shenai, I am afraid that you will be able to find out for the first time that the long hair behind Hakurei Shenai's head is gathered by a red and white bow that is slightly exaggerated and almost the same as Hakurei Shenai's head, forming a waterfall-like black stream behind it.

But compared to the unprecedented neatness of the clothes and the weirdness of the style, at this moment Hakurei Shenai is more concerned about who brought Hakurei Shenai into the shrine when he was unconscious and changed into new clothes. Of course, even Ikatori Kami's uneducated mind was able to figure out in a short time who could save him from a shrine in the wilderness except for the mysterious master.

The body is still very weak, and since the day of the attack, he has not been able to eat for some reason, and he has continued to fight with youkai and gods, and Hakuri Shenai only feels that he is still very tired after resting. However, compared to physical exertion, asking for peace from the master who helped him is the first priority.

Stumbling out of the room, leaning on the wooden railing outside the shrine, the moment Hakurei Shinagi stepped out of the shrine, the sight that caught his eye instantly left him with only a strong shock from the drastic change in the scenery.

"Cherry blossom trees... It's not the season for cherry blossoms.,Why... ”

The large and lush cherry blossom forests may be worshipped as gods by humans during the Kami period, and the Hakurei Shrine is enveloped in a rich fragrance. The pink cherry blossoms fall in the wind, dyeing the ground a faint pink. In the center of the cherry blossom rain, Xunxin, who was holding a long knife with a sheath, closed his eyes tightly, and his face showed a peaceful appearance, as if he was enjoying the elegant fragrance.

When Hakurei wondered whether he should approach the master who seemed to be one with nature at this moment, his vision changed instantly, and the next moment Hakurei realized that he had returned to the room where he had rested before. Moreover, the bed that was used for rest was placed neatly in the corner of the room at some point.

In its place was a table of hearty dishes still steaming. And his master was sitting next to the round table in a strange long robe, and he didn't care about figuratively lifting the wine jar next to him and pouring it directly into his mouth.

"Whew, it's been a long time since I've tasted the flavor of wine with a faint local flavor, and it's really a nostalgic taste...

After pouring almost enough wine into his mouth and casually teleporting the wine jar into space, he beckoned Hakurei Shenagi to sit opposite him. Seemingly not caring at all about the other party's nervous and overwhelmed posture, Xunxin leaned back on the back of the wooden chair in a very relaxed posture.

"I advise you to supplement your food as much as possible, although you have acquired more power than ordinary people, you are still a human after all, not those gods and monsters who live on faith and fear. Before you reach the point where you don't need to eat or rest, no, resonate with the energy of the outside world and absorb it to sustain your life, you still have to rely on basic food and water to survive. ”

Following the instructions of Xun Xin, and also following the constant sorrow from the stomach from the moment he saw the food, Hakuri Shenai immediately couldn't help but be hungry, in addition to maintaining his image and etiquette, and not directly grabbing the food with his hands, the speed of facial muscle activity of Hakuri Shennagi even made Xun Xin ashamed.

"The Hungry Ghost probably doesn't have the terrifying eating speed of Kaminagi?。。。 Either way, consider that I am different from other lives ... ’

Waiting patiently for Hakurei Kaminagi to sweep away all the food on the table, the girl with a satisfied look let out a long sigh of relief. However, I realized that I was stealing food, and it was very rude to the chef who made the food for himself but couldn't even eat a bite. Hakuri Kami Nagi suddenly panicked, not knowing how to explain to Xunxin.

"Aha... Don't panic like that, I don't mind. At the end of the day, as a master, I'm forgetting that you haven't reached the point where you can survive without whole grains. ”

Smiling and waving his hand, the helpless Hakurei Kami Nagi knelt down in front of him again, and looked up and down at the girl who had changed into a red and white witch costume, and nodded with satisfaction.

"It's no different from the image in my memory, it seems that I don't belong to the forgetful old man."

At the mention of the shrine maiden's costume, Hakurei Kami's face suddenly turned red, and a large amount of blood rushed to his face due to his rapid heartbeat. The blood vessels dilate with the heartbeat, and with the rapid breathing, Hakuri Kami Nagi staggered to ask Xunxin the questions he already had answers.

"Master... Did you help me change my clothes when I was unconscious? ”

"Of course? In this wilderness, who else but me can drag you back to the shrine? ”

It's one thing to have an answer in mind, but it's another thing to have someone else say your guess on the spot. The excessive mental stimulation even made Hakuri Shennagi unable to think normally through his brain even about what he wanted to say. But Xun Xin understood something from the face of Hakuri Shennagi, and his face showed a clear color.

"You're too young to think too much. Your master and I are already married to three wives and have already started a family. I don't have crooked thoughts about you, a barren little guy who is not yet an adult. ”

Although the statement of seeking the heart dispelled the shyness on the face of Hakuri Shenai, however, Hakuri Shenai inexplicably felt a trace of gloom from the heart... (To be continued.) )
