The Lion King Matchmaking Agency
Mahiro's reaction was indifferent; he casually picked up two documents and stuffed them back into the enrollment list.
Although he didn't know what this group was up to this time, he was certain that it was inextricably linked to the Fourth Progenitor, or rather, to Avrora Florestina, the Twelfth Primitive.
However, just as he sat down opposite Natsuki Minamiya's desk, Avrora Florestina put down her teacup and came over at some point.
Her eyes were fixed on Yotsuba Mahiro's wrist, then she quietly moved her head closer, her cute little mouth slightly open.
"Ah... woo!"
I closed my mouth and bit down, but it didn't feel as comfortable as I remembered. Instead, I felt a slight pain in my head.
Mahiro raised his hand and delivered a sharp chop to Avrora Florestina's head, causing the girl to let out a soft whimper.
"Ugh... Mahiro, why did you hit my head? I just wanted to drink your blood. You're so stingy."
"Nonsense, I'm not your mobile blood bank, nor am I your food source. You think you can just suck me whenever you want? Can't you tell the difference between a king and a queen?"
Mahiro mercilessly pounded on Avrora Florestina's head, and Avrora Florestina squatted on the ground like a vampire princess, adopting a defensive posture with her hands covering her head.
However, while it was said to be ruthless, it didn't actually use much force.
As for why Avrora Florestina wanted to drink his blood, it's strange. Ever since she solved the Aldegard Convent and analyzed the Sage's Blood several months ago, Avrora Florestina has had strange ideas about him.
Just like that vampire prostitute back in prison, she developed a desire to drink his blood.
He had tried feeding Avrora Florestina a little, but it didn't help at all; on the contrary, Aurora seemed to crave him even more.
It's almost as if a pinkish-red mark has appeared in its eyes.
It was like springtime for animals, and specifically for him.
Despite the beating, he still loved the little one very much, picking her up from the ground and holding her in his arms.
At the same time, he pricked his fingertip and held it to Avrora Florestina's lips, whispering:
"You're only allowed to take a little bit, and then no more fooling around, understand?"
"Uh-huh."
Avrora Florestina nodded quickly, then opened her small mouth and took his index finger in, making a series of comfortable sounds.
"Mmm~~~ Mahiro's blood, so delicious."
She squinted her eyes contentedly, and Mahiro leaned back comfortably in her chair.
He could clearly feel his fingers being enveloped in softness, gently and tenderly.
Every now and then, his sharp canine teeth would lightly graz his fingertips.
Just as he was enjoying this moment of comfort, a chill suddenly ran down his spine. He turned around and saw Est standing behind him, staring at him expressionlessly, with Avrora Florestina in her arms.
That calm, authoritative gaze clearly said, "I'm jealous! I want some too!"
Natsuki Minamiya looked at him with a mocking gaze, her eyes seeming to laugh and say, "Still saying you're not a lolicon?"
Mahiro couldn't be bothered with this petty, shrewish woman who made him angry eight hundred times a day.
Since Est is jealous, what else can be done?
Of course, we'd hold them both in our arms.
So, while Avrora Florestina was enjoying her meal while clinging to his arm, he freed his other hand to pull Est from behind him to his side, then lifted her up and placed her on his lap.
Enveloped in familiar scents and feeling familiar warmth, Est stopped throwing her little tantrum.
His cold, stern gaze gradually softened, returning to calm.
Holding the two little girls for a short while, Mahiro spoke again:
"By the way, Natsuki- chan, there's something I want to ask you."
"Speak, but don't mention Dragon Vein or anything like that to me again; that's impossible."
Natsuki Minamiya had warned him beforehand.
Lately, she had no idea what was going on in that jerk's head; he kept coming up with a bunch of strange ideas, which made her have to be on guard.
As for the nickname "Natsuki," she has completely given up on correcting it; in fact, it's impossible to correct it anyway.
"It's nothing serious."
Mahiro's hand landed on Est's black stockings, her fingertips lightly tapping, "I just want to ask, do you know what's really going on with Itogami Island?"
"Hmm? Is there a problem with Itogami Island?"
Yes, and the problem is serious.
Mahiro nodded, his expression unusually serious.
During his months on the island, he wasn't just doing nothing and wasting his time; he did take in the entire island.
He discovered that around Itogami Island, there were four huge floating islands, corresponding exactly to the four cardinal directions.
In other worlds, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it was purely for aesthetic purposes, but in this world, it's clearly not that simple. Not to mention, this island was created by a feng shui master named Itogami Chihiro, and it's Itogami Chihiro's greatest masterpiece!
It is clearly endowed with some kind of magical function.
The east corresponds to the Azure Dragon;
The west corresponds to the White Tiger;
The south corresponds to the Suzaku Kururugi;
The north corresponds to the Black Tortoise!
It happens to be the Four Gods phase in feng shui, and with the Dragon Vein suppressing it below, it can be said that the entire Itogami Island constitutes a huge feng shui altar!
If he hadn't previously analyzed the Ghost Gate Dunjia, he really wouldn't have been able to see through these intricacies.
But after he finished speaking, Natsuki Minamiya rested her chin on her folding fan, a look of bewilderment in her eyes.
You mean... an altar?
"That's right, it's a huge feng shui altar. If it's activated, it will connect with the underground Dragon Vein, and it's estimated that all the living beings on the island will become living sacrifices."
Upon hearing these words, Natsuki Minamiya opened her mouth as if to say something, but she couldn't utter a single syllable.
She trusted Yotsuba Mahiro. Although he was unserious, had many secrets, and always tried to annoy her, she knew very well that Yotsuba Mahiro himself meant no harm.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have arranged for Yotsuba Mahiro to live with her for so long.
Only--
That's hard to accept.
She gave up her freedom to protect the island, yet she knew nothing about the purpose of this artificial island.
To be precise, not only her, but most people wouldn't know the purpose of this island. Mahiro didn't know either, because he had only watched the TV series and hadn't seen the OVA.
However, judging from Natsuki Minamiya's expression, it's clear that she knows nothing.
"Looks like you've been deceived too, Natsuki- chan." Mahiro shook his head and sighed helplessly.
Natsuki Minamiya finally shut her mouth and became expressionless.
She was about to say something when the door was suddenly pushed open.
"Heh, Natsuki, I told you before that those people weren't worth protecting; they were just setting up a huge deception for you!"
Aye walked in from outside and mercilessly mocked Natsuki Minamiya.
Judging from her expression, she must have been waiting outside the door for a long time and clearly heard their conversation.
This time, Natsuki Minamiya unusually did not refute, but simply watched Aye walk in, and then quietly looked at Yotsuba Mahiro sitting opposite her.
"Anyway, I... wait, we'll talk about that later, I have some things to take care of."
She had barely finished speaking when she sensed something, and the exquisitely beautiful, black-haired gothic lolita-like girl, who resembled a doll, immediately stood up and used spatial teleportation to leave.
Only a velvet luxury chair, still warm from the heat, remained in the room.
"Hmph, stubborn."
Looking in the direction his best friend had left, Aye let out a disdainful snort.
Yotsuba Mahiro did not express his opinion on this.
He didn't care; that was his attitude. The life or death of the people on the island was none of his concern. He just needed to take care of his own little corner of the island.
Moreover, he noticed the wavering in Natsuki Minamiya's eyes just now.
He also believed that what Natsuki Minamiya was about to say was definitely not to continue protecting the artificial island without reservation.
Indeed, while Natsuki Minamiya is stubborn and kind, she is not to the point of being a pushover.
Protecting the innocent is certainly a duty, but she also wants to investigate everything thoroughly in her own way!
However, she has more important things to deal with right now.
In a secluded corner of the street not far from the Saikai Academy, a girl stood before Natsuki Minamiya, who was holding a black parasol, and bowed slightly, saying:
"Nice to meet you, Your Natsuki Minamiya. My name is Koyomi Himgari —please take care of me in the future."
"Oh? You're the contemporary Koyomi Himgari Ei? You seem even more composed than Touka Fujisaka."
Thank you for your compliment.
The young woman remained unfazed by the situation and answered calmly.
She was an unremarkable girl with two black braids hanging down her chest, swaying slightly in the sea breeze. She wore round-framed glasses, and her eyes were as blue and deep as the ocean.
She looked like a country girl, and wasn't very old, probably around thirteen years old.
This seemingly insignificant being is actually Shizuka Koei, one of the Three Saints of the Lion King Agency in the modern Koyomi Himgari!
Nickname: [Silence Breaker]!
Chapter 349 The Lionelle's Matchmaking Agency (5.2K)
Besides Koyomi Himgari, there is a third person here, a girl standing next to Koyomi Himgari.
She was much older than Koyomi Himgari, a tall woman dressed in white, with little expression on her face.
"If I remember correctly, you should be Misaki Akatsuki's assistant, right?" Natsuki Minamiya bluntly revealed the woman's identity.
"Yes, my name is Miwa Toyama. Besides being Ms. Misaki Akatsuki's assistant, I am also a Special Dispatch agent of the Lion King Agency and the monitor of Prism Number Twelve."
"Your purpose."
When the other party introduced himself as the monitor of the twelfth entity, Natsuki Minamiya frowned, knowing that the people from the Lionelle Matchmaking Agency were up to no good. But she never expected that they would say something that would make her burst out laughing.
"I hope Yotsuba Mahiro can return the Twelfth Flame Haze Night Emperor; it doesn't belong to him."
Natsuki Minamiya didn't answer immediately, but instead looked at the country girl and asked:
"Is this the meaning of 'Koyomi Himgari'?"
Koyomi Himgari shook his head, expressionless, and said:
"It has nothing to do with me. I just hope that Natsuki Minamiya can persuade Yotsuba Mahiro withdraw from the Feast of the Flame."
After these words were spoken, a brief silence fell between the three of them.
Natsuki Minamiya's breathing became rapid and somewhat suppressed; her small hands, gripping the parasol, were clenched so tightly they turned white, as if she were restraining something.
Then he laughed, a chilling laugh.
"Everyone says your Lion King Agency is shameless, and today I've seen it for myself."
She first looked at the tall and slender Miwa Toyama.
"You say that the Fourth Progenitor's Twelfth Body doesn't belong to Yotsuba Mahiro, then I'd like to ask to whom it belongs? Does it belong to your Lion King Agency? I remember that the Fourth Progenitor's existence predates your Lion King Agency. Since when did the Progenitors become your property for you to distribute?"
Or are you planning to forcibly demand Body Twelve under the guise of being a monitor, and then give it to your lover?
"I heard that Jou Akatsuki and Misaki Akatsuki have a bad relationship and have divorced, so you're eager to use that to climb the social ladder?"
"Ya Cheng and I are not in that kind of relationship!"
Miwa Toyama immediately retorted loudly, her breathing becoming rapid with anger. Seeing this Natsuki Minamiya sneered:
"Heh, you've been hit where it hurts? Who doesn't know that your Lion King Agency is also known as the Lionelle Marriage Agency? You send women to various factions under the guise of surveillance."
Not only did Miwa Toyama's expression turn somewhat unpleasant, but even Koyomi Himgari's face also became rather pale.
"Your Excellency Natsuki Minamiya, you have gone too far."
