Chapter 225 - Chapter 225: My Sister Renge Has the Potential of an Empress

Shinomiya Kaguya's words indeed said a lot for Miyauchi Hikage that he couldn't say himself, but the decision was still up to Tohru.

Tohru's gaze wandered between Shinomiya Kaguya and Miyauchi Hikage as if sizing them up. She always felt that the attitude of this man and woman towards her was a bit subtle.

She had an inexplicable feeling that Miyauchi Hikage deliberately let this scheming woman say these things and then chimed in.

However, through the videos on her phone, she already knew that Tokyo was the most prosperous city in this country, with a permanent population of over 10 million.

Wanting to learn more about this world and Miyauchi Hikage, she had intended to go to Tokyo to have a good look.

Anyway, she was a dragon. As long as there was still spiritual power in this world, even if it was very muddy, it was enough for her to appear in any corner of this world within two hours.

And from Chichibu to Tokyo, it wouldn't take her ten minutes to fly back and forth, so even if she wanted to find Honma Meiko in the future, it wouldn't take much time.

So after hearing Miyauchi Hikage's words, she nodded, indicating that as long as she could make money as soon as possible, it didn't matter where she lived.

And upon hearing that Tohru was going to Tokyo, a moved expression immediately appeared on Shinomiya Kaguya's face, saying that she could have the Shinomiya family's driver take Tohru to Tokyo.

They naturally didn't travel with only one car this time. When they returned to Tokyo tomorrow, she was going to take Miyauchi Hikage to Jujutsu High, and with Tohru's identity kept secret between the two of them, it was naturally not appropriate for her to ride in the same car as them.

And even though she knew that Tohru would most likely live in Miyauchi Hikage's Western-style house, she still had to fight for it a little.

After all, Beika Town was not a good place. Maybe Tohru would dislike the environment there after arriving?

And Miyauchi Hikage had only awakened to the supernatural in the last few days, and didn't know the situation in Beika Town before. After knowing the situation there, maybe he wouldn't want to live there either?

At that time, she could naturally use the Shinomiya family's money power to help Miyauchi Hikage change to a living environment closer to hers, making it easier for her to gain favorability from both of them.

It was just that her overly deliberate reaction made Tohru subconsciously want to stay away.

This woman wants something from me.

Did Miyauchi Hikage tell this scheming woman about me?

This was the first thing that came to Tohru's mind.

She looked at Miyauchi Hikage with inquiring eyes, while Miyauchi Hikage calmly faced Tohru's gaze.

He just wrote a diary entry, but who knew that these entries would be accidentally seen by others?

Tohru didn't know Miyauchi Hikage that well after all. Even though she knew Miyauchi Hikage was hiding something from her, since she didn't have mind-reading skills, she didn't know exactly what Shinomiya Kaguya knew.

But ignoring Shinomiya Kaguya's goodwill was no problem.

So in the following time, while Miyauchi Hikage went to explain the situation of the inner world to Koshigaya Suguru, Shinomiya Kaguya's goodwill towards Tohru seemed to fall on deaf ears.

Shinomiya Kaguya only felt that her various flattering methods as the young lady of the Shinomiya family had no effect on this dragon girl, and instead seemed to make her attitude even worse.

It seems I was too hasty, Shinomiya Kaguya sighed in her heart, knowing that without any special circumstances, it would be difficult to quickly gain the favor of an existence comparable to a god.

But at least she had successfully left an impression on Tohru. Later, when Honma Meiko came out of seclusion, she would go and brush up her presence again. Somehow, she should be able to gain some favorability from Tohru.

Moreover, from her probing, it seemed that this Miss Tohru was not a diary holder. She seemed completely unaware of her probes.

Very good. This way, there was even less need to worry about Tohru snatching their commissions after arriving in Tokyo.

And on Miyauchi Hikage's side, the communication between him and Koshigaya Suguru seemed much more tacit.

They were only a year apart in age, and Koshigaya Suguru had been deliberately cultivated by Miyauchi Hikage since childhood. If Fujimiya Konomi could feel the changes in Miyauchi Hikage, Koshigaya Suguru would only feel them earlier.

After all, after obtaining the diary, Miyauchi Hikage, who had not yet adjusted his mindset, chose to temporarily avoid Fujimiya Konomi, but not Koshigaya Suguru.

"Anyway, that's about it. As soon as I stepped into that world, I could feel that it wasn't very stable. When the time comes, you can just go and get started with that technique for free. As long as you don't get tricked by those bald donkeys into signing a contract of indenture, it'll be fine. Wait for me to get something better, and I'll come back and take you to fly."

Those bald donkeys had already noticed Koshigaya Suguru, so he couldn't teach Koshigaya Suguru Hamon breathing completely for the time being, lest those bald donkeys discover Koshigaya Suguru's physical changes and become even more obsessed with him.

It wouldn't be too late to let him practice Hamon and other things after Koshigaya Suguru got that "Kannon Seal" technique.

Koshigaya Suguru nodded. He still had that unflappable look.

Before Miyauchi Hikage went to Tokyo, he had already felt that his older brother's personality had changed a little.

He had become more composed and ambitious than before.

At first, he just thought that the other party was preparing to launch a new business plan in Tokyo, but after seeing the haunted house exploration videos filmed by him, he knew that this older brother had probably found a broader new world.

Filming haunted house videos, with a few frames of scary ghost faces appearing in the videos.

Going out with Fujimiya Konomi, a middle school detonating a century-old school building at night, and then Miyauchi Hikage just released the tragic story of that middle school and a girl who had been dead for more than half a century.

Going out with Honma Meiko, whom they saved a few years ago, an earthquake occurred in Chichibu City that night, and Miyauchi Hikage lost contact for two hours.

Koshigaya Suguru was already prepared, so when Miyauchi Hikage talked about these things, his biggest change was adjusting his glasses more frequently than usual. Apart from that, everything seemed normal.

Even when he returned to the Koshigaya house with the few cards flashing with different lights that Miyauchi Hikage had taught him to use for self-defense, his performance did not let his parents and sisters find anything unusual.

It was just that night, he still looked at the dozen or so cards in his hand that he couldn't understand at all until 3 a.m., before slowly falling asleep under the irresistible drowsiness.

And on Miyauchi Hikage's side, because a bald donkey had taken a fancy to his sister, Miyauchi Hikage, who scoffed at the so-called "empowerment ceremony," even wanted to take Renge to Tokyo for school.

Now Shinomiya Kaguya was still trying to gain his favor, and she had also learned about his sister's talent from those two bald donkeys. If he asked her for help, there would be no problem even letting Renge study at Shuchiin.

However, considering Renge's own feelings, and the fact that the two bald donkeys still wanted to win him over and were relatively restrained, Miyauchi Hikage, who didn't want to make his beloved sister unhappy, gave up this plan.

He just told Fujimiya Konomi and Kagayama Kaede about these things before leaving in the morning, asking them to help keep an eye on things.

"A monk has his eye on Renge, asking me to be careful?" Kagayama Kaede looked a little strange.

"Yeah, my sister Renge has the potential of an Empress. Isn't it normal for people to have their eyes on her? Now it's just monks, maybe in a few days there will be shrine maidens coming to us. Anyway, I trust you so much, you won't let anyone abduct Renge, right?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Kagayama Kaede subconsciously patted her chest. "With me here, no one can snatch Renge away!"

But after saying that, she still felt a little strange.

She always felt that the boy she had known for more than ten years had become more and more confusing recently.

Watching him getting into the same car with the young lady of the Shinomiya family, preparing to return to Tokyo, she even felt a little jealous.

But what concerned her more was that everyone was clearly at the same starting line, why could Fujimiya Konomi still look at Miyauchi Hikage with such gentle eyes at this time?

Konomi, aren't you the most black-bellied woman among us? Hurry up and snatch Miyauchi Hikage back from that thieving cat!

Kagayama Kaede was even thinking about whether she should get in the car with them, stay at Hikage's house in Tokyo for a few days, drive away all those thieving cats, and then come back to work.

But as a tsundere, this kind of thought was just a thought. Taking the initiative to act on it would probably be difficult for a lifetime.

Miyauchi Hikage looked at Kagayama Kaede's tsundere appearance, couldn't help but walk over, and reached out with both hands to squeeze her face.

"If nothing unexpected happens, the next time I come back might be during the summer vacation. I'll have to trouble you with Asahigaoka's affairs during this time. As a reward, when I come back during the summer vacation, I'll tell you a big secret."

He had originally planned to find a chance to tell Kagayama Kaede about these things when he came back this time, but this woman was too dull. She hadn't noticed any problems despite so many things happening to him.

Even though that confidentiality agreement had almost no binding force on Miyauchi Hikage and most supernatural beings, and they could bypass the agreement in various ways, it was still a binding vow after all, and violating it would still have some impact.

Even if Miyauchi Hikage knew that his constitution was special and these bindings acting on the soul probably wouldn't work on him, he didn't plan to trigger this binding if it wasn't necessary.

After all, Gojo Satoru, this "good teacher," had secretly told him several ways to bypass the agreement before leaving, and Shinomiya Kaguya had also talked to him a lot about this in the past two days.

Just like Koshigaya Suguru, because of his talent, he could legitimately bypass the binding of the confidentiality agreement in the name of recruitment and inform him of the situation in the inner world.

And for someone like Kagayama Kaede who had no talent, someone had to ask first, and then Miyauchi Hikage would deliberately reveal some flaws to bypass that agreement.

Is this silly woman Kagayama Kaede just going to wait there for him to take the initiative to explain?

Being touched so intimately by Miyauchi Hikage after a long time, Kagayama Kaede's face couldn't help but turn red. Although her tsundere nature made her want to break free, another kind of thumping in her heart made her obediently let Miyauchi Hikage knead her cheeks.

Although the whole process only lasted four or five seconds, in Kagayama Kaede's perception, it felt like a century had passed.

When Miyauchi Hikage let go, she gave him a "fierce" look that said "just you wait" and fled.

Although in the eyes of outsiders, this look had a bit of an affectionate meaning.

Then Miyauchi Hikage continued to say to Fujimiya Konomi on the other side in a very scumbag manner, "Take care of Kaede more over there. Contact me if anything happens."

Fujimiya Konomi just smiled and took a few steps closer, then stretched out her head as a signal, as if indicating that she was okay with the treatment just now.

Miyauchi Hikage naturally couldn't let her have her way.

He just reached out and patted her head, then withdrew his hand.

Looking at Fujimiya Konomi's slightly dissatisfied expression, Miyauchi Hikage waved his hand, indicating that she could go back.

Let's wait until there's no one around in the future for the rest.

Didn't you see that the way Tohru and Shinomiya Kaguya looked at him had become strange?

Even if he didn't want to conquer this person and dragon, Miyauchi Hikage still had to pay attention to his image.

He calmly greeted Itou Kaiji, Hikari, and Tohru who were sitting in another car, and then got into Shinomiya Kaguya's car.

This matter was quite easy to explain. Both Itou Kaiji and Tohru knew about the situation in this world, it was just that Itou Kaiji didn't know that Tohru's true form was a giant dragon.

But under Miyauchi Hikage's hint, Itou Kaiji also knew that Tohru was a particularly powerful supernatural being and would be their future colleague.

Miyauchi Hikage was very sure that the normal Itou Kaiji would absolutely not have the guts to provoke Tohru, who looked quite cold.

And Miyauchi Hikari's side was even easier to explain.

The young lady of the Shinomiya family invited him to lunch. could he refuse?

Even if Miyauchi Hikari didn't believe this explanation at all and strongly suspected that he and Shinomiya Kaguya had an affair, as the true bottom of the Miyauchi family hierarchy, Miyauchi Hikari's protests were irrelevant most of the time.

Anyway, Miyauchi Hikage didn't think his older sister had the guts to go to Shinomiya Kaguya to verify the truth.

Perhaps because of Miyauchi Hikage's rather scumbag behavior before leaving, Shinomiya Kaguya didn't say much to him in the car.

It wasn't until the car drove all the way to the gate of Jujutsu High that she put aside the previous matters and introduced the situation of Jujutsu High to Miyauchi Hikage.
