Although she didn't fully understand the situation, Marisa helped Youmu Konpaku up off of Kars.
After separating from Kars, Youmu Konpaku let out a small sigh of relief. The full-body stimulated feeling had subsided quite a bit. However, this situation still made her face flush with shame. My body actually produced this strange reaction when touching him…
Thinking of this, Youmu Konpaku couldn't help but glance at Kars, but the instant their eyes met, she immediately pulled her gaze away. Looking at him under these circumstances only made her feel more ashamed.
"Um, are you alright?" Marisa looked at Youmu Konpaku, who was looking down and not speaking, and asked, worried that she really had been injured by the crash.
"I'm… I'm fine. You don't need to worry. Now that your goal for coming here has been achieved, you should hurry back." Youmu Konpaku finished speaking, stood up, and hurried away towards Hakugyokurou, leaving a confused Marisa scratching her head. However, she didn't dwell on it too much and looked at Reimu Hakurei, who was flying back from the sky.
"Let's go, we should go back too. Finally, we can rest."
After leaving the Netherworld, Kars looked at the bright, sunny sky, and his mood became exceptionally relaxed. After such a long time, being able to sunbathe again made his entire body feel like it was cheering, and he began to continuously absorb and replenish energy.
"Alright, Reimu, Marisa, I'm heading back too!" Kars bid farewell to the two of them and happily flew back to the Scarlet Devil Mansion.
However, this joyful mood didn't last long before it vanished.
"Oww! Little Aunt, be gentle!"
"Gentle? You won't learn your lesson if I'm gentle! Did I allow you to do something like this?" Remilia pinched Kars's ear and scolded him. She knew that Kars went to the Hakurei Shrine to ask the Shrine Maiden to resolve the Incident caused by the misbehaving Youkai, but she never permitted Kars to do the same thing: going out to resolve an Incident, which carried a high degree of danger. In his current state, what could he possibly do!
"I didn't want to, either. I was just dragged along by them." After Kars explained the situation, Remilia snorted and let go of his ear. If Kars was telling the truth, then the problem wasn't entirely his fault. The main thing was that she hadn't expected the Shrine Maiden to drag him along just to freeload off his heat; that thought process was truly absurd.
"Hmph, I'll let it go this time. Next time if something like this happens again, you run far away, understand?"
"I know. And I think it won't matter if I encounter it again in the future. I'll definitely have fully recharged my energy by then, and I can handle any problems myself!" Looking at Kars's confident expression, Remilia said no more. She didn't even know if he would be involved in the next event.
"But what's going on with your eyes now?" Remilia pointed at Kars's orange-red eyes, wondering if this was another side effect of his power.
"My eyes? It's probably the effect of the Sun Attribute activating. And Little Aunt, you know what? I can shoot light beams from my eyes!" Kars spoke with excitement. Every time he used this power, it would occasionally bring him some pleasant surprises, and this change was no exception. After feeling the change in his eyes, he learned to shoot beams of light from them, and the next time, there might be another new surprise.
"Shoot light beams from your eyes? Is it necessary to use your eyes for that?" Remilia didn't know how to respond to that, but seeing Kars so happy, she didn't want to dampen his spirits. She simply nodded to show her approval.
"As long as you think it's good, that's fine." As for the effect, she wasn't interested in caring about it. Kars then went to find Patchouli and told her about his situation.
"Mmm, Kars, that's great. If you keep it up, you'll learn even more ways to use it." In Patchouli's view, learning this form of utilization was influenced by Kars's own thoughts. If he continued this, Kars's development in this area would slowly improve, forming a system suitable for himself.
And after his eyes turned orange-red, she felt like his entire demeanor had changed somewhat. He went from a cute style to a somewhat handsome one—very nice. Patchouli stroked Kars's head, and his face brightened with her praise. At the same time, some of his energy leaked out. As Patchouli felt this energy contact her body, she instantly felt that familiar stimulated sensation all over, causing her face to suddenly flush significantly.
"Patchouli?" Kars noticed this. Seeing the sudden change in Patchouli's expression, which was exactly like Youmu Konpaku's earlier, he realized it must be his fault. As for the reason, it might be the energy issue just now, but why did his Sun Attribute suddenly gain this effect? It didn't have it before.
"N-nothing's wrong. It's just my body reacting." Patchouli shook her head and replied. Although the stimulation was sudden, she was already getting used to it and quickly calmed down.
As for the reason, Patchouli felt that the leaked energy was the activated Sun Attribute energy from Kars's body. This energy activates and stimulates muscle activity, which has a very notable beneficial effect on the body. The stimulated sensation could only be considered a small side effect, as not everyone's body is constantly absorbing this energy like Kars's. Therefore, for those who are just experiencing and absorbing it for the first time, this obvious stimulating sensation appears. However, it must be said that this kind of stimulation does easily incite one's desire.
"I hear the sound of water running…" Kars heard a subtle trickling sound, and the source seemed to be Patchouli in front of him.
Patchouli's face flushed even more when she saw Kars's gaze, but she didn't hide her problem. She lifted her skirt, revealing her wet, pale purple panties underneath, which made Kars understand where the trickling sound was coming from.
