I have too many anime girlfriends!

In her sleep, Yukino Yukinoshita felt a clear and melodious female voice speaking in her ear.

[Legend has it that hundreds of years ago, the powerful shrine maiden Midori was skilled in the art of soul extraction and purification.]

[In the eyes of the shrine maiden Midori, all beings—animals, humans, and plants—are composed of the four spirits.]

[The so-called Four Souls refer to the Ara-Tama, Ya-Tama, Ki-Tama, and Sachi-Tama. The Ara-Tama represents courage, the Ya-Tama is primarily characterized by kinship, the Ki-Tama represents wisdom, and the Sachi-Tama represents love.]

[The shrine maiden Midori can extract the four souls of humans and yokai. After purification, yokai that have lost courage, intelligence, kinship, and love are completely rendered incapable of harming others.]

[The shrine maiden Midori's abilities instilled fear in the yokai, who dreaded being wiped out by her one day. Thus, dragons, earth spiders, and groups of yokai attacked Midori.]

[After seven days and seven nights of fierce battle between Midori and the demons, neither side could defeat the other. The demons then merged into a gigantic form, attempting to devour Midori and absorb everything she possessed. However, at the very moment before being merged, Midori used her final purification technique.]

[She extracted her own soul and the demon's soul together, and the souls of the priestess and the demon formed an incredible crystal, which fell from the heart of the fused body.]

[That crystal, known as the Shikon Jewel, possessed incredible power. After many years, it was finally obtained by the Celestial Maiden.]

[A celestial maiden from beyond the heavens, having lost her feathered robe, was forced to remain in this world. She was coerced by a thief into becoming his tool, and ultimately bled to death, where she is now buried underground.]

[At this moment, the celestial maiden's resentment resonated with the Shikon Jewel, transforming her into a great demon. Using her immense power, she exacted her revenge, attempting to exterminate all men in the world.]

[At this moment, a pure priestess, Kikyo, appeared. She sealed the core of the celestial maiden with her exorcising arrow, purifying the resentment within the Shikon Jewel...]

[Hundreds of years later, a demon from an unknown source reawakened the celestial maiden, only to be purified once more by the light.]

[Beneath the snow, demons have appeared, and you possess the most outstanding qualities of a shrine maiden. From now on, it is your turn to protect this world. Until you grow into a powerful shrine maiden, I will protect you. Remember my name—Umina Shirayuki!]

As soon as she finished speaking, a beautiful figure flashed through her mind.

[Please call upon me when you need me! By the way, once I've rested, I'll guide you in your training as a shrine maiden!]

"what!"

Yukino Yukinoshita suddenly opened her eyes and sat up straight.

It was nighttime.

The girl was panting heavily, her forehead covered in sweat. She looked around at her surroundings and frowned slightly.

She was in a tent, and Naoka Ueno and the others were still fast asleep next to her. Shoko Nishimiya was holding her younger sister Yuzuru Nishimiya in her arms, and she was also frowning, as if she was having a bad dream.

You can even hear the chirping of insects and birds outside. The night near the shrine stream is so noisy that it evokes mixed feelings.

"So, were those all dreams? But why are they so vivid?"

"Moreover, the name Shirayuki... seems to be engraved deep in my mind, and I can't forget it at all."

Gently touching her forehead, Yukino Yukinoshita couldn't help but take a deep breath and slowly exhale, as if this could calm her down.

But the images from the dream in my mind became clear again.

She still remembered the evil look on Fujiwara Hiroshi's face.

Demons?

There's also the spirit possession posture of the older sister.

My own sister, she was doing such dangerous things?

the most important is……

Kaminaga-kun, he should be alright now, right?

Although the "celestial maiden" in her dream said it was a test, when she thought of the bloodied and mangled Shinji Kaminari, she felt her heart tighten as if it were being gripped tightly by a large hand.

I'm so upset I can't sleep at all.

With a sigh, Yukino Yukinoshita revealed a determined expression. She quietly got up and put on her coat.

The girl slipped out of her tent and approached the tent where the boy was.

She would never feel at ease unless she witnessed the person's safety with her own eyes.

coincidentally.

As soon as she left the tent, she saw her older sister, Yukinoshita Haruno, also covered in sweat and looking flustered as she crawled out of the tent and approached her.

Yukino's eyes met her sister's, and both of them trembled.

"Yukino, what are you doing out so late instead of sleeping? Are you going to the bathroom?"

Yang Nai's heart skipped a beat, thinking it was just a nightmare. So she subconsciously put on her usual sweet smile and started teasing her sister.

Yukino Yukinoshita shook her head, staring intently at her older sister as if trying to see through her secret.

"Sister, I had a nightmare and can't sleep."

"Nightmare?" Yang Nai's heart skipped a beat, and her smile froze.

"Haha, dreams and reality are opposites, go back to sleep."

Yukino Yukinoshita had a lot of questions she wanted to ask, but seeing her sister trying so hard to hide them, she took a deep breath, nodded gently, and turned back to the tent.

Yang Nai finally breathed a sigh of relief. She quietly went to the boys' tent and opened it to take a look.

To prevent the other boys from waking up, she also used a spirit possession stance and the abilities of a three-tailed fox.

Seeing Shinji Kaminaga fast asleep next to Hayato Hayama, Haruno Yukinoshita breathed a sigh of relief.

But her eyes welled up with tears.

"You little rascal, you're sleeping so soundly, and I was so worried about you."

"But thankfully it was just a dream."

As they were talking, Shinji Kaminaga suddenly opened his eyes and stared at her intently.

The next second, he crossed his arms over his chest.

"Sister Yang Nai, are you finally going to take advantage of me, this young boy, like an old cow trying to eat young grass?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Nai's forehead veins bulged.

She grabbed the little brat and pulled him into her arms, then vigorously squeezed his cheeks.

"I'll teach you to talk nonsense! I'll teach you to be an old cow eating young grass! I'm only 18! How am I an old cow? Just say it if you want to piss me off!"

Shinji Kaminaga let her rub his cheeks.

The beautiful older sister smelled sweet and soft; most people wouldn't have the chance to get close to her, let alone engage in such intimate actions.

He didn't dislike Miss Yang's closeness.

Feeling her body trembling slightly, he gently raised his hand to hold her waist and said softly:

"Go back to sleep. It's all over now; the nightmares won't happen again. But when you get back, you'll have to investigate that Fujiwara Hiroshi."

Upon hearing this, Yukinoshita Haruno's eyes widened immediately.

"So, you were dreaming too? Could it be... that your Ultraman master intervened and took care of that guy?"

Just as Shinji Kaminaga was about to answer, Haruno gave him a quick kiss on the cheek.

"Hehe. Thank your master for me, I'm going back to sleep now."

With a master intervening, what is she panicking for?

Go to sleep!

Shinji Kaminaga touched his cheek where he had been kissed, feeling both amused and exasperated.

She's taking advantage of him!

Damn it, I'll have to pay for this sooner or later!

When Haruno returned to the tent in a cheerful mood, Yukino Yukinoshita emerged from the corner.

Seeing her sister's cheerful expression, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Since my sister is so happy, it means that the idiot is alright.

That's good, now she can sleep peacefully.
