"Do extraordinary people use phones now too?"
Zhoufang Youxi's question remained unanswered for the time being.
Jun Dao Ling Nai, who was behind her, finally asked at the right time: "Youxi, what did you see just now?"
"Uh… according to what that person said, it should be an undead."
Recalling it, she still shivered.
Jun Dao Ling Nai couldn't understand Zhoufang Youxi's feelings, but she knew that her young lady wouldn't lie.
"Then are you sure you want to become his vassal? Before a thorough investigation, I don't think agreeing rashly is the right choice."
"Of course I know that, but… meeting an extraordinary person might be the only chance I have in this life. If I miss it, I might regret it forever."
Zhoufang Youxi sighed.
Why couldn't it be like in the comics?
As the protagonist, she suddenly encounters a miraculous fortune one day, thus beginning her interesting life of conquering everything.
But Rosen's actions also made her realize that everything has a price.
"Let's go back first."
.....
The rest of the journey was peaceful.
Zhoufang Youxi returned to her family mansion.
"Mother, I came home a little late today."
On the surface, she was a proper and polite young lady, but in reality, after parting ways with Rosen, she went to an anime store and bought some of the latest published comics and novels.
Those things were taken by Jun Dao Ling Nai.
She would get them from her when she wanted to read them.
"Come eat, your grandfather has been waiting for you for a long time."
"Okay, I understand."
As the head of the Suo Fang family, everyone from top to bottom in the family held a sense of awe towards her maternal grandfather, Zhoufang Yanqing.
Zhoufang Youxi was an exception.
Of course, this didn't mean Zhoufang Youxi disrespected her maternal grandfather.
Her father came from an ordinary background, so the entire family's burden fell on her grandfather.
Her mother, Zhoufang Youmei, brought the young girl to the main hall.
Her grandfather, Zhoufang Yanqing, was dressed in a suit, with his hair combed back, exuding the aura of a person in a high position.
And behind Zhoufang Yanqing stood a middle-aged man also dressed in a suit.
That was the Suo Fang family's butler.
After several rounds of drinks and dishes.
After the meal, Zhoufang Youxi bid farewell to her grandfather and mother, then left to return to her room.
Soon after, only Zhoufang Yanqing and the butler remained in the main hall.
"Master, there's a lingering spiritual aura on Miss. Perhaps someone has already set their sights on Miss."
"Regardless of the purpose, this is not a good sign."
"Is there no way to trace the spirit's whereabouts?"
The Suo Fang family only has this one heir; nothing must happen to her.
"There's no way, and... since they didn't succeed this time, there will definitely be another attack."
The butler said.
"No matter what, we must do our best to protect her."
Zhoufang Yanqing said.
"The family's power is temporarily unable to contend with those spirits, and official organizations cannot be relied upon. However, Master, it is said that there is a shrine dedicated to a fox god on a mountain in the suburbs. As long as enough remuneration is given, it can grant three opportunities for protection."
"Then let's do that."
...
At the same time.
Inside a manor in the suburbs of another city.
A bald monk wearing an old kasaya opened his eyes: "It's been so long, and that new person still hasn't returned?"
"Maybe he encountered something fun on the way, or of course, he might have died."
A blond man in a coat and a flat-brimmed top hat squinted and said.
"According to the last transmitted message, the new person went to Tokyo."
The speaker was a young girl dressed in Gothic Lolita attire, holding a doll.
Her delicate features were covered in overly pale makeup, and her cherry-red lips were painted with a dark lipstick.
"If you're curious, I can go investigate."
"For now, don't stir up trouble. Just ensure the current plan of collecting resentment to allow the embryo of dawn to be born smoothly."
The old monk shook his head.
"This is our primary goal."
...
Rosen, who returned home via Godspeed, didn't dwell on Zhoufang Youxi's matter.
The aroma of food wafted from the kitchen.
Since it was their first time, and to ensure Rosen ate delicious food, Sakurajima Mai and Yotsuya Miko subconsciously gave their all, and a subtle competition unfolded unintentionally.
Yurikawa Hana, on the other hand, wasn't skilled in cooking, so she could only help out and serve as a taste-tester.
······
When Rosen returned, they had already set out their respective dishes.
During the meal, both of them nervously watched Rosen, waiting for his evaluation with anticipation and trepidation.
To be fair.
Their cooking skills weren't outstanding, but giving a bad review here would undoubtedly disappoint their sincere efforts.
Therefore, after he gave a "not bad" evaluation, both of them visibly relaxed.
Only Yurikawa Hana looked at the array of dishes, practically drooling.
After dinner.
Yurikawa Hana took the lead: "Time to go slay demons and banish evil!"
It was her first time participating in actual combat, and just like Yotsuya Miko back then, she rushed out like a runaway husky.
0 ... 0
"Xiao Hua, don't run so fast!"
Yotsuya Miko followed behind.
"Keep your voice down, don't let others see us."
"I know, Miko! Ah! There's a ghost right here!"
Yurikawa Hana was startled.
At that moment, the ghost also realized the girl could see it, and it roared, lunging at her.
But golden flames ignited on the girl's body, and before the ghost could even touch her, its body was completely incinerated.
"It's just like that? So amazing!"
Yurikawa Hana exclaimed.
But then came a wave of lingering fear.
"That ghost just now looked so scary, Miko, and Rosen."
"It's okay, those ghosts can't hurt you."
Yotsuya Miko comforted her.
Then, the training of the new person, guided by the two experienced ones, proceeded slowly and smoothly.
About two hours later.
Yurikawa Hana leaned lazily on a park bench: "So tired, and so hungry."
Saying that, she took out a Snickers bar from her satchel and started eating.
The dim golden life energy on her body gradually rekindled.
It wasn't until ten o'clock at night.
Rosen finally told the three of them to stop.
"That's enough for today. You can continue tomorrow."
After seeing the three of them off, Rosen teleported back home, lay on his bed, and scrolled through his phone and chat groups.
