Itsuka Shiori Takes Action (First Update) / We've Disturbed the Spirits' Nest (Second Update)
At Raizen High School, Tokisaki Kurumi, carrying her schoolbag, stepped into the school gate with a smile spreading across her face. Her pretty face, hidden by her bangs, made it impossible to discern her expression.
As the girl with heterochromia walked forward with her head lowered, the subtle, gloomy, and dark gothic aura caused the students on the road to subconsciously keep their distance.
"Hey, don't you guys feel like this child is terrifying?"
"Hmm, I heard someone saw Kurumi hanging out with those delinquents all the time, and she basically doesn't accept any invitations or kindness from anyone in class..."
"This is unbearable..."
Behind a lush tree, a small group of classmates—Ai Yamabuki, Mai Hazakura, and Mii Fujihakama—peeked at a lone figure walking along the path and whispered among themselves.
Tokisaki Kurumi passed by the big tree, she seemed to sense something and suddenly cast a deep gaze in her direction. The three girls, who were more curious than malicious, were startled and hurriedly turned their backs.
"Which of you has finished your homework? Can I copy it?"
"Homework? Oh, it's in my schoolbag. Remember not to copy my name this time..."
"This is unbearable..."
The three of them put their arms around each other's shoulders, hastily changed the subject, and pretended to be nonchalant as they slipped towards the classroom door, like a criminal gang fleeing the scene of a crime.
Tokisaki Kurumi covered her mouth and smiled, then walked to the tree trunk and waved to the figure behind the dense foliage above.
"Come down quickly, Stan, I see you."
As the branches swayed, a white-furred cat with a gray face and dark red runes on its body reluctantly jumped down and obediently leaped into its owner's outstretched arms.
As expected of a seasoned cat lover, your sensitivity to cats is practically a bug. I bet you two will have a lot in common when you meet Durandal.
Kevin had originally planned to sneak all the way to Raizen High School to gather information on his own, lowered his head, looked at his cat paws, and looked depressed.
It's been two days, and he still can't pinpoint the exact location of his human body. He can only vaguely determine that his official Alt Account is safe for now.
Left with no other choice, Kevin could only reluctantly accept reality and drift through life with Tokisaki Kurumi.
After spending a day figuring out the situation around Tokisaki Kurumi, he jumped out of the window in the morning and followed his master all the way to Raizen High School.
Unfortunately, this heterochromatic-eyed girl had very sharp senses, and Kevin the cat was caught red-handed.
"Are you bored at home alone? Do you miss me?"
Tokisaki Kurumi chuckled as she held Kevin the cat in her arms. The soft, furry touch on her chest and the meows made the heterochromatic-eyed girl blush, her heart filled with joy and satisfaction.
Although she likes cats, she had no prior plans to adopt one due to her own inability to settle down.
However, this little creature was quite clever. Not only was it not afraid of her at all after it devoured those scumbags, but it also looked up words in a dictionary and took the initiative to name itself.
Moreover, in just two days, apart from its tendency to appear and disappear unpredictably, this kitten required absolutely no effort in its daily life; it didn't even need the cat litter and Canned Food she bought.
What's even more strange is that the more they interact, the more intense their intimacy becomes, as if they have some inexplicable bond with each other.
"Someone's coming. Come inside quickly. Be good and don't be naughty..."
Tokisaki Kurumi sensed the movement around the corner behind her and, for the first time, looked embarrassed. She furtively opened her backpack, rubbed the fluffy cat's head, and gestured for Kevin the cat to crawl inside and stay put.
Entering the classroom? Perfect! I was just about to investigate the specific situation at Raizen High School.
Upon seeing this, Kevin immediately escaped from Tokisaki Kurumi's "caresses," crawled into his backpack, and cautiously observed through the gaps.
The classrooms of the second-year students at Raizen High School were bustling with activity on the first day of the new semester.
"Damn it! Wrong option! Shiori-chan, please, teach me how to explain this to my new girlfriend! You have to help me this time!"
Hiroto Donomachi, with black hair and black eyes, clutched his head in Affliction, then grabbed a passing blue-haired, brown-eyed girl and begged for professional help.
"My Little Shido Seed? Another dating simulation game?"
Seeing her childhood friend with an expression that said she wouldn't give up until she got instructions, the somewhat androgynous Itsuka Shido had no choice but to reluctantly take the game console.
Based on her intuition, the girl selected several seemingly perfect options, finally managing to salvage her precarious goodwill.
"Hongren, it's a new semester, don't always be so addicted to games. You could try getting a girlfriend or something..."
With a slightly hoarse voice, Itsuka Shido advises her friend to say goodbye to her virtual, two-dimensional wife and find true love in reality as soon as possible, because that's the only right thing to do.
Meanwhile, the androgynous girl secretly thought to herself: Now that you've found a girlfriend in real life, I won't have to be begged by you all day long to answer my questions about how to beat the challenges in dating games.
I don't know how many dating simulation games you've played since junior high, but I myself have become a master at solving dating simulation games in order to cope with this situation.
Moreover, the strategy guides I created before are still posted on the official forums of these games, and they've probably been viewed hundreds of thousands of times by now.
However, Itsuka Shido's well-intentioned advice was clearly a case of talking to a brick wall.
Hiroto Donomachi only gave a perfunctory "uh-huh" response, patted the androgynous girl's chest like a brother, and focused all his attention on the game console screen.
"You shut-in type, please stay away from my older sister from now on! Don't cause her any trouble!"
Just then, Mana Takamiya, with her single ponytail, blue hair, and brown eyes, pulled Itsuka Shido back and faced Hiroto Donomachi with a look of disgust.
She and Itsuka Shido were originally sisters in the Takamiya family, but due to the early death of their parents, the older sister was given to their cousin Itsuka family for adoption.
Mana Takamiya herself had already become a special soldier in the Amamiya City AST unit, trained from childhood.
After experiencing several disasters caused by spirits appearing in the world, Mana Takamiya, who was serving in the AST (Anti-Spirit Team) for the spirits, finally reunited with Itsuka Shido, who had become her cousin. Through the exchange of military merits, she transferred to Raizen High School.
However, the only downside is that life would be better if the Itsuka family didn't have that annoying KOTORI Itsuka competing with her for her older sister's affections.
Oh... Sister complex! This kind of setting is amazing!
Veteran otaku Hiroto Donomachi, watching Itsuka Shido's Mana Takamiya, felt his obsession with character settings in dating sims subtly touched, and his eyes couldn't help but light up.
However, Mana Takamiya took this as a lecherous look from a man who had designs on her older sister, and the girl even began to secretly plot against him.
Defending against thieves is too troublesome. Should we take care of this guy while we're dealing with the sprites?
The girl's eyes narrowed slightly, filled with malice.
Chapter 746, Section 780: Troubleshooting the Elf's Nest (Second Update)
Through the narrow gap inside the backpack, a pair of cat eyes cautiously peered around.
At the very back, Tobiichi Origami, a genius girl with short, silver-white hair, a cool and aloof demeanor, and a somewhat ascetic air, was lying on her desk, intently flipping through a thick book in her drawer.
Of course, if Kevin hadn't noticed the few offensive color illustrations and the book's title, "Black Beast," others would have thought this abstinent genius girl was diligently studying.
Aloof on the outside, but lewd on the inside, just as you always are, Origami Master...
The cat rolled its eyes in a human-like manner, following the hurried footsteps echoing down the corridor, and looked towards the classroom door that was suddenly kicked open.
A strong wind swept in, causing the pages of books in the classroom to rustle and dust to fly. Two strikingly similar twin girls with orange hair and gray-blue eyes rushed into the classroom almost at the same time.
"Hmph, Yuzuru, as expected of my other half, you were only a mere second behind! But that's all for today. The one who wins the hundredth match is Kaguya..."
On the left, Yagami Kaguya- esque tone, threw down her schoolbag, pointed to her forehead which had first touched the door frame, and proudly raised her chin.
"Therefore, I am the older sister!"
"No, in the hundredth match, Yuzuru is the victor..."
The somewhat taciturn and unattractive Yagami Yuzuru, supporting her considerable amount of excess fat on her chest, is precisely the part of her body that the Winner would first touch the line with; she needs to be seriously corrected.
"In my opinion, only Yuzuru is qualified to be the eldest daughter of the Yamai family!"
Meanwhile, Hiroto Donomachi, who was taking the opportunity to film the new school environment, obediently handed over his camera under the oppressive atmosphere on both sides.
The video footage is somewhat blurry, but you can vaguely see Yuzuru with her head held high, using her prominent features to win her 100th match.
"Losing is losing, what's there to be proud of? Our fairy's record is twenty-five wins, twenty-five losses, and fifty draws—a tie! Let's come back after school!"
"Kaguya should be laughing and gloating, but after his defeat, he doesn't dare admit it, pfft..."
Just as the two sisters were bickering, their classmates, as if it were nothing out of the ordinary, gathered up the books and papers that had been blown away and subconsciously distanced themselves from them.
At that moment, the screeching sound of tires came from below the teaching building. A light purple Ferrari sports car, with its superb performance, completed a drift and stop maneuver, stabilizing itself an inch away from the steps.
As the car doors opened on both sides, a purple-haired, silver-eyed girl wearing black sunglasses and carrying an LV bag stepped out gracefully.
This figure, clad in a gown of light with hollow sleeves and lace-like ribbons on top, and a skirt with ruffled edges of light on the bottom, and adorned with Moon- shaped ornament on her head, drew everyone's attention.
The moment the girl appeared, she attracted a dense crowd of people peering out of the windows.
Many excited girls spontaneously formed cheerleading squads, waving books and glow sticks from their bags, cheering and waving to the celebrities downstairs.
The Diva star, Izayoi Miku, smiled demurely and nodded reservedly in response to her enthusiastic fans. Then, protected by two female bodyguards in black, she lifted the hem of her skirt and walked towards Class 4 of the second year.
Good morning, everyone...
The transfer student from Ryūdanji Girls' Academy, surrounded by a group of female fans and cheerleaders, sat in a seat surrounded by women and greeted the girls around her in a sweet voice.
Amidst a rustling sound, Kevin turned his gaze to behind Itsuka Shido, where the purple-haired, purple-eyed girl with a bow in her hair Tohka Yatogami, was happily munching on a pineapple bun, her cheeks puffed out.
"Didn't you just have breakfast?"
Itsuka Shido looked at the gluttonous girl who had inexplicably moved into her home and asked her in confusion.
"But I'm so hungry..."
Tohka Yatogami clutched the pineapple bun pitifully, her actions revealing her possessiveness towards her food.
"So how many meals do you eat a day?"
"How about we use my name, Ten Meals? I've discovered the food at the school's snack street is amazing! I could eat four or five different things every day and still not finish them in two weeks!"
Itsuka Shido looked at the glutton whose eyes were sparkling with excitement and sighed in Affliction.
"Stop talking, hurry up and resolve this. If the head of student affairs catches us during class, things will get really bad..."
"Oh no? Is it tasty?"
The girl squinted and continued to happily swallow her pineapple bun, lost in thought, clearly not paying much attention.
"Yes, it'll be a day of solitary confinement, no food allowed!"
"How terrifying!"
Tohka Yatogami touched her lower abdomen in fear, her expression terrified, before reluctantly wrapping up the half-piece of pineapple and stuffing it into her desk.
Yes, as expected of you, the ultimate foodie Tohka...
Kevin cat looked around and, upon hearing the words that were tantamount to a nuclear weapon against Tohka Yatogami, couldn't help but twitch his lips and mutter to himself.
As the school bell rang, all the students in Class 4 of Grade 2 took their places and, under the guidance of their homeroom teacher Okamine Tamae, proceeded in an orderly manner to begin the opening ceremony.
Several transfer students, including the Yuyutsu Sisters, Tohka Yatogami, and Izayoi Miku, were also among them, introducing themselves in their own unique styles.
Kevin the cat looked around, looking sullen. Ten Angels, split from the guardian consciousness of Earth Mother Goddess Gaia, were clustered together.
In Class 4 of the second grade alone, he saw a total of six elves.
What's even more absurd is that, according to the script of history, these so-called Ten Angels should have been sealed away one by one by Itsuka Shido, the Schicksal one of Amamiya City?
However, judging from the current situation, there are many discrepancies between the original intelligence and the current situation.
It seems that history has long since deviated from its original course and become unrecognizable. The urgent task is to understand the situation as soon as possible and formulate targeted measures to overcome the test composed of the Ten Angels.
Kevin the cat was getting tired of the noisy and boisterous opening ceremony. He crawled into his schoolbag, curled up in a corner, and unconsciously tapped his paws on the books beneath him, just like humans do.
Meanwhile, the cat pondered and began to organize the information it already possessed.
Based on the historical script and information about Amamiya City found in the Quantum Sea.
Just as humans have both good and evil sides, gods also have the dual functions of protection and destruction.
Therefore, Honkai is the "tyranny" and "destruction" will that split off from the Earth Mother Goddess Gaia, responsible for purging biological groups that pose a threat to the planet.
The Honkai, in the process, dispersed power, giving birth to fourteen Herrscher who acted on divine will and fulfilled their missions.
Similarly, the [Ten Angels] before us represent the "protection" and "creation" aspects of the planet's power, and the elves are similar to the Herrscher.
Unlike the Final Herrscher, whose divine power had been divided by him and who had been gradually conquered and replaced.
The other half of Earth Mother Goddess Gaia, should play the role of the Original Elf Mio Sumiya, who created the [Ten Angels], in this game.
So, considering the fact that the Yuyutsu Sisters are split in two, he probably has to deal with a total of twelve Pokémon.
Eleven Herrscher- level spirits, plus Original Elf who is half-body of the Earth Mother Goddess, and he hasn't even found his own body yet, so it's the usual hell mode again.
"I really want to go on strike!" Kevin the cat scratched his head in frustration, then sighed as he faced the dark, cramped space.
Then, the cat's head popped out of the backpack to get some fresh air, looked at the fair and slender legs in black stockings in front of the chair, and muttered to itself.
