The Council, the Ward Chief / I Have to Say, Mai-chan Really Is Adorable
Shuya's heart stirred, Power of Faith that he hadn't used in a long time ignited.
In the blink of an eye, the surroundings lit up.
A dazzling starry sky, usually only seen in polar regions, appeared over Tokyo.
Countless people were astonished and took out their phones to take pictures.
Before people could calm down, a dazzling aurora appeared out of nowhere, followed by a series of brilliant meteors streaking across the sky.
Amidst this rare spectacle, ordinary people busied themselves taking photos and videos, while the extraordinary individuals were astonished by the power represented by the phenomenon...
The world is full of chaos and people are busy with their own lives.
No one noticed that in the center of this mysterious and romantic vision, two young people were holding hands, their lips pressed together.
After agonizing over this for days, a thought suddenly came to mind: If you can't even bring yourself to eat the omega of the woman you love, how can you claim to love her?
This was a wake-up call!
Coach, I get it!
I'm going to buy tickets right now! (Rationality evaporates)
Section 619, 577: Council, District Head
At the home of the director of a certain Supernatural Bureau.
"So beautiful!"
"Well..."
While instructing his daughter on Yin-Yang techniques, Director Abe let out a sigh that was completely different from his daughter's excited mood.
Director Abe's daughter is a superhuman and has met Shuya, so she easily recognized who the strange phenomenon in the sky was from.
She ran outside the cultivation room and called out in the void, "Shu-chan / Shu-chan / Shu-chan /!"
Director Abe slowly walked up behind her, his face quite grim. "Just how much does this guy want me to go bald...?"
Shuya will be fine after all this commotion; it's the bureau chief who will have to handle his funeral arrangements.
The general direction of the Earth Federation is to prevent supernatural powers from being displayed in public.
If gods and Monster are allowed to display their power, they will grow rapidly, posing a powerful threat to rulers.
... This is even worse for ordinary people.
"Hey, what happened this time?"
Director Abe looked up at the sky and realized it was just a harmless illusion with no offensive power, which reassured him considerably.
The phenomenon didn't last long before disappearing, leaving behind a bunch of pictures and videos circulating online.
Before the anomaly disappeared, Director Abe had already taken his daughter back to the Supernatural Bureau to work overtime.
Without him giving any instructions, the employees skillfully arranged for an expert to come out and explain that this was some kind of amazing scientific phenomenon.
Then, messages are secretly leaked online, providing a bunch of extraordinary information that interests those who don't believe the experts' explanations, in order to confuse their perceptions and prevent the Power of Faith from flowing to anything.
Ultimately, people discussed it for two days and then forgot about it, which was a perfect solution.
Director Abe doesn't need to worry about what's happening below; what he and other high-ranking officials need to deal with are the questions from above.
They first organized the cause of the incident and wrote it into a report, then submitted it to their superiors.
They were sitting in the conference room, waiting for their questions.
Director Abe looked around at the people around him and said angrily, "To do something like this just to please the opposite sex is outrageous!"
They had received intelligence and knew why Shuya had done this.
"How romantic!"
His daughter still slapped him in the face.
"Shut up and just listen to your song!"
"Hmph! I'm listening. Do you want me to play it?"
"You've left it at home for several days now!"
"Stop arguing, stop arguing."
"Calm down, everyone."
"Why are you arguing at a time like this?"
Other senior executives offered some words of advice.
"Yes, it wouldn't be good if the district chief found out."
When one of them said that, everyone fell silent.
An awkward silence fell.
The term "district head" refers to the highest authority in the administrative district government.
The Earth Federation has a top-level federal parliament, and each administrative district also has a parliament that governs the district government. The highest authority in the parliament is called the speaker or the district head.
"Well."
Director Abe sighed heavily again.
He found dealing with these politicians annoying, but he had no choice but to bow his head when he was under someone else's roof.
"I guess it's about time I retired."
Director Abe said helplessly.
"No, no, Director, please hold on for a few more years!"
"Only Director Abe is qualified for this position!"
The deputy directors were the first to change color drastically, almost kneeling down before him.
The Bureau of the Supernatural Bureau wields considerable power, but it's not an easy job, especially given the strength of the extraordinary forces within the Japan region.
For these Onmyoji, it's better to spend more time cultivating than working, because who knows, it might even extend their lives by a few years, which is more satisfying than anything else.
However, these Onmyoji families have always relied on official resources and dared not disobey orders...
In short, being the director of the Supernatural Bureau is a tough job.
Director Abe and the others waited for a while, but no one arrived. Instead, they received a phone call.
It was the district head who called personally.
Director Abe, with a pained expression, explained the incident in detail and carefully answered the district chief's questions.
The call wasn't long, but I was under a lot of psychological pressure.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief after he hung up the phone.
"I knew it, the district chief wouldn't pursue the matter."
"Yes, Inoue- kun didn't do anything too outrageous."
"Yes, yes, after all, Inoue -kun and the district chief have always had a tacit understanding... cough cough, I misspoke."
Director Abe glanced at the man and said helplessly, "Watch your mouth, don't say anything out of line."
The person made an apologetic gesture.
His mention of it reminded everyone of what happened back then.
In the past Amaterasu died, the Monster Alliance was established, the power of the gods was reshuffled, Shuya rose to prominence, among other major events that occurred in a short period of time.
Ordinary people didn't feel it, but during that period, the atmosphere between the government and the Alliance of Monster and gods was extremely tense, and a new round of battle could break out at any moment...
Updated before 6 PM. Yesterday wasn't a missed update, sob sob.
Chapter 620, Page 578: I have to say, Mai- chan is really cute.
Shuya could roughly guess what those people in the Supernatural Bureau were doing, but he had no interest in caring.
He's actually quite happy to annoy Shuya. They send people to monitor him every day, and he keeps all the details in his little notebook. Today, he's just grumbling a bit.
Compared to those, Shuya still felt that Mai- chan in front of him was more important.
By the time the strange phenomenon in the sky disappeared, they had kissed several times.
For Shuya, kissing Mai was a different feeling altogether.
She wasn't as passionate as Haruno, as charming as Tsuruko, or as half-heartedly welcoming as Yukino.
Mai is very gentle, and she's also a little shy, which makes her very charming.
Shuya actually has the leisure to analyze these things; he's truly a scumbag. (crossed out)
After kissing several times, their relationship went beyond simply holding hands.
Shuya skillfully put his arm around her shoulder, letting her lean against him.
Mai was initially quite shy, but as she got used to the feeling of the two of them leaning against each other, dissatisfaction slowly began to grow. "You, you're way too skilled at this."
After she finished speaking, she slapped Shuya's hand off her lap again.
Shuya comforted him, "It's okay, you don't need to feel embarrassed. I'll practice with you until you're proficient."
Mai nearly choked on her drink upon hearing his words: "I'm not embarrassed! I'm blaming you, do you understand?!"
"I know, I was just teasing you."
Shuya definitely understood what she meant; he had tried to brush it off, but it didn't work.
... But there's not much to explain, it's just the way it is.
Shuya replied helplessly, "Sigh, you'll get used to these things after doing them a lot."
"Snort."
As expected, Mai didn't give him a friendly look. He had known this would happen, which was why he didn't want to say anything.
He didn't want to lie to her, because there was really nothing to hide.
She knew all about his relationships with different women.
Shuya didn't bother to explain; he simply lowered his head and took her lips again.
"That's enough, stop kissing."
A moment later, Mai, panting, pushed him away.
She knew that if she continued to be intimate with him, she would inevitably end up dating him.
That means we'll have to face the stomachache of Quintuplets together in the future.
Mai compared the two things and decided that it would be better for her stomach if she didn't date them for the time being.
Once she made up her mind, she stopped spending so much time with Shuya.
"What, are you leaving?"
Seeing that she had stood up, Shuya also stood up.
"It's late, it's about time to go home."
"That's fine too."
Shuya didn't insist on keeping her and readily took Mai back to her house.
"Hello."
