Wait a Minute.
She discovered something illogical.
Kyudo is also a physically demanding activity. It takes considerable strength to draw the bow, and with proper training over a period of time, calluses will inevitably develop.
"Could it be that Kaguya-chan is no longer the real Kaguya! She's a monster?!"
Fujiwara Chika recalled the rumors circulating at school, and a look of fear appeared in her eyes.
"What are you thinking about? We've arrived."
Before you know it, the person in front of you stopped and turned around.
"So fast?"
Fujiwara Chika met her gaze again, confirmed it, and chose to discard that absurd idea.
The two walked across the grass.
"Is this the Laughing Cat? It looks a little scary."
"I didn't sense any evil aura from it, so there shouldn't be any problem."
Just a few meters away, the expressionless Laughingless Cat Statue stood there, exuding an inexplicable sense of majesty.
"What's with this 'sensing aura' Kaguya-chan, have you finally gotten on the same wavelength as Izumi-chan?"
"Stop talking nonsense and come with me."
Shinomiya Kaguya pulled Fujiwara Chika closer, then took out a pre-prepared offering from her pocket: a huge gemstone.
What should we do next?
Fujiwara Chika's eyes still looked somewhat confused.
"Just silently wish in your heart that you could give me some of the breast fat you don't want. As for your other wish... Fujiwara, what do you think you need?"
Shinomiya Kaguya pondered for a moment before asking again.
"I think being myself is fine, there's nothing I need to do, and besides, Kaguya-chan wouldn't be the Kaguya-chan I like."
Fujiwara Chika clasped her hands together and said with a smile.
She wasn't just saying it for show; she genuinely believed it.
"..."
Shinomiya Kaguya fell silent, her gaze shifting away.
"Kaguya-chan, then I'll make a wish."
Immediately afterwards, Fujiwara Chika closed her eyes and silently recited in her heart—
[I wish to transfer a portion of my breasts to Kaguya-chan.]
Just then, the Laughingless Cat Statue emitted a strong surge of spiritual energy, enveloping the two of them.
"I refuse."
At the most critical moment, Shinomiya Kaguya finally sighed, and a spiritual light appeared on her body to resist the fluctuation.
In this situation, the Laughing Cat's ability obviously failed to activate.
Its ability requires stringent conditions to be met when facing sentient beings. First, it requires the strong will of the individual; it cannot initiate a 'miracle' on its own. Second, it must touch the other party.
This time, however, its abilities were blocked by spiritual power.
Why are you making fun of me like this?
A slightly angry voice suddenly came from inside the statue.
"The statue spoke!"
Fujiwara Chika touched her own breasts, and after confirming that their size hadn't changed, she was stunned, initially thinking the rumors were false.
"Fujiwara, stand behind me!"
Shinomiya Kaguya's expression changed drastically.
"Oh oh!"
Fujiwara Chika immediately ran away.
At the same time, the figure of a young woman flew out of the statue.
"Damn it, I forgot my bow and arrows... Oh well, this is the only way, even though it will consume more resources."
Shinomiya Kaguya felt the spiritual pressure emanating from the other party and had no choice but to release her spiritual power to create a Spirit Bow.
"Kaguya-chan, you...!?"
Behind her, Fujiwara Chika covered her mouth, her face full of disbelief.
Before she could react, a familiar voice, complete with its usual quirk, rang out.
"Finally, I've met you, Laughing Cat. I want to ask you something: could you give this guy's Poison Tongue and Black Bellied to someone else, Death?"
Both the man and the spirit were startled and turned to look at the scene simultaneously.

Chapter 72 Wait a minute.
From the nearby grove, a group of girls from the Far East Magic Society emerged.
Dekomori Sanae extended her right hand, pointing at the Silver-haired Witch beside her.
To the surprise of both the Laughing Cat Spirit and Shinomiya Kaguya, they hadn't noticed a thing before Dekomori Sanae spoke.
Especially the Laughing Cat; her perception range is very large. She can sense if someone with ill intentions tries to intrude, which is why she was able to avoid detection before.
"Is it that girl's ability?"
The Spirit Woman amplified her inspiration and sensed something amiss, her gaze falling on the last, seemingly unremarkable girl.
While it was distracted, Shinomiya Kaguya reacted first, grabbing the voluptuous body of the girl behind her with one hand and leaping into the air to create a considerable distance between them.
"Huh!?"
After a brief pause, Fujiwara Chika exclaimed in surprise, grabbing Kaguya's arm and saying, "What?! What is all this, Kaguya-chan -san?! How much have you been hiding from me?! And Rikka- chan and everyone from the Far East Magic Society... it seems like I'm the only one who's out of sorts!"
Her continuous complaints drew the ire of those around her.
"I can explain what you want to know later. For now, just watch quietly; they're about to start fighting."
Shinomiya Kaguya gives a warning look.
"... oh."
Fujiwara Chika immediately became obedient.
Then, Shinomiya Kaguya focused her attention on the upcoming battlefield.
Having studied under Hasegawa for so long, she had only ever fought someone once, lacking experience and knowledge of the underworld. In addition, she was eager to know how the others who spent every day with that man were progressing, so she didn't want to miss this opportunity.
"Heh~ Little Dot, haven't you always been concerned about your height? Now kneel down before her, and maybe your wish will come true."
Natsukawa Masuzu was no pushover; he immediately retorted with a sarcastic remark.
"You..."
Dekomori Sanae is someone who can't stand being provoked, and she was immediately furious.
"Alright, you guys, are you trying to make a fool of yourselves in front of the enemy?"
"It's none of your business to interfere!"
"... Death."
The two said in unison.
When Nibuya Morika, who was at odds with both of them, stepped in, she naturally became the target of their attacks.
However, the creation of a common enemy diverted the anger.
Over the course of a year, they managed to establish a relatively harmonious way of getting along.
"A bunch of rude scoundrels, you're the ones who've been spying on me all along, aren't you?"
The Spirit Woman looked at her with disdain.
"After all, you've already made a mess of everyone's lives."
Takanashi Rikka responded.
"Isn't it a good thing that everyone can have their own wishes fulfilled? Are you making things difficult for me because of this? What a bunch of self-righteous selfish people."
Its cold eyes were fixed on him.
"I don't care to listen to your nonsense. I just want you to know that you need to stop what you're doing immediately and restore everything to its original state. Since you haven't committed a serious crime, we might let you off the hook."
In the past, Takanashi Rikka would have gotten angry with it, but gradually she came to understand something.
It's difficult for people to understand each other, let alone other living beings.
Therefore, she gradually got used to that decisive approach, unless the other party had the idea or ability to make her use her persuasive skills.
"You think you can handle this?!"
The Spirit Woman's voice swept across the surroundings, her powerful spiritual energy fluctuations clearly evident.
"How could I, who bear the weight of all living beings' hopes, be defeated by you lot? You've only been blessed by the world by sheer luck."
Just as its momentum was rising higher and higher, it suddenly stopped before breaking through another boundary.
With the pressure on the girls greatly reduced, they were still able to remain calm and joke around.
"Almost there..."
"But he's actually stronger than that guy who was covered in bandages, Death."
What's this called?
"Based on some of the stories the Club President mentioned, it should be called Half-Step Lv.3, right?"
Kato Megumi remained silent and quietly disappeared from everyone's sight.
"However, we can't be careless, after all, her abilities are quite strange."
Nibuya Morika emphasized this point.
"We don't need your reminder, aren't we strong enough, Death!"
Dekomori Sanae was already impatient and excited. Her figure shot out like a bolt of lightning, and the next second she was already in a punching stance.
Just as the blow was about to hit the Spirit Woman's face—
"The thoughts of all beings are with me."
This sound was transmitted through thought, so it was too fast to even blink.
An inexplicable force formed, transforming into an unbreakable barrier that solidly blocked the attack.
"This is..."
Dekomori Sanae fell from the sky with a sense of bewilderment, only to find herself becoming smaller and smaller.
Wrong!
She quickly dismissed her own idea.
The other person is getting bigger!
In everyone's view, the Spirit Woman's figure suddenly swelled up, growing from a tiny figure to dozens of times larger in proportion, appearing to outsiders like some kind of giant projection.
"Could this be the 'Dharma Form Heaven and Earth' that the Club President was talking about?"
"Impossible, that's too exaggerated!"
"But this must be the 'Thought Power' she collected from the people who made the wishes, right?"
The girls whispered among themselves, analyzing the situation.
"Stop talking, Death! Come help me die!"
Ahead, Dekomori Sanae dodged the crushing hand in a sorry state and roared.
