"Let's go, Uesugi-kun."

Still ignoring the gazes focused on her, Ririko left the arena without looking sideways, not even sparing the other contestants a glance.

The reason was simple.

The moment she stopped restraining her willpower and aura, no one dared meet her eyes.

If they lacked even that tiny bit of courage, they weren't worthy of Ririko's attention.

"What are you looking at?"

When she came to Uesugi Tetsu, who had disguised himself, Ririko curiously leaned over to look. She saw the LINE interface on the screen and the nickname of the Special Affairs Division agent named Tamamo, whom she had met not long ago.

[Tamamo: There are only rooms left in some of Tokyo's top hotels, but they cost at least 200,000 yen a night... Gurgle, my eyes went black just looking at those prices.]

[Yuesha-chan: Then come stay at my place. My house is pretty big.]

[Yuesha-chan: You let us impose on you for quite a while in Shizuoka Prefecture, so now that you're in Tokyo, let me show you some hospitality.]

[Tamamo: Yagyū-kun says it's no big deal...]

[Yuesha-chan: It's fine. There are plenty of empty rooms anyway, and with the Seed Battle approaching, I'd also like to discuss some cultivation insights with Yagyū-kun.]

"There are too many people in Tokyo lately, so they don't have anywhere to stay."

Uesugi Tetsu asked her, "Would it be all right if Tamamo and Yagyū Shion stayed at our place for a while?

"They helped me quite a bit when I was in Shizuoka Prefecture."

Ririko rarely showed surprise, but she paused.

She stared at Uesugi Tetsu, who was still replying to Tamamo without even looking away from the screen, then curved her lips slightly and smiled. "Why are you asking me? It's your home."

"Not exactly."
