Stardew Valley of Gensokyo

In reality, no one can stop Yukari Yakumo in the current situation. She only got this opportunity because she was arrogant, and once she misses it, she will never have another chance.

"One! Two! One! Two!"

Fujiwara no Mokou excitedly shouted the slogan of pulling up radishes.

How could we not strike while the iron is hot when such a rare event has occurred?

"Boom~"

A subtle sound.

Yukari Yakumo... was pulled out... from the gap...

A crowd gathered around to watch.

"I give up... let me go..."

Surrounded by onlookers, Yukari Yakumo's voice remained calm, as calm as a stagnant pool.

"Let go." Saigyouji Yuyuko walked over and patted Akina Zeya on the shoulder.

Akina Ze then seemed to wake up from a dream, untied himself from his monkey-like posture, wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth, and stood up.

"Purple, do you think all memories are worth preserving?" Saigyouji Yuyuko asked.

"..."

Faced with the question, Yukari Yakumo remained silent.

Chapter 55 Doing nothing is helping

In the end, Yukari Yakumo never answered the question.

Everyone watched in silence as Yakumo Yukari gracefully entered the gap, until... meat...

"Hahaha!"

The first to burst out laughing was Fujiwara no Mokou, who bent over, clutching her stomach and laughing uncontrollably.

"I've never seen Yakumo Yukari look like this before." Fujiwara no Mokou wiped away the tears of laughter from the corners of her eyes, winked at Akina Sawaya, and gave him a thumbs up. "Akina Sawaya, well done!"

"It's just a coincidence," Akina Ze said with a helpless wry smile.

Ultimately, Yukari Yakumo is still a youkai sage, so this is a case of offending her...

If he were to disappear one day, no one would be able to find him. Even if they did find him, he might already have a bag over his head.

Shaking my head to clear my mind of these distractions, I realized that the integration within the courtyard was nearing its end.

Once the fusion was complete, the great fairy was freed from the torment of the cycle of the four seasons.

Akina Sawa also learned from Saigyouji Yuyuko that this was all due to the effect of 'Springtime', and that with it, every day would be springtime.

The cherry blossom sapling is now bound to 'Spring', and the Great Fairy is bound to the cherry blossom sapling. So, no matter the season, as long as the Great Fairy is by this cherry blossom tree, it will be spring.

Akina Sawa also really wanted 'Springtime'. If he could get some of this stuff, wouldn't the yard be like springtime every day?

But after asking Yuyuko, he learned that the cherry blossoms in that tree were the only ones left, and there would be none left in the future.

Although it was regrettable, he had no choice but to accept it.

The honeycomb-shaped barrier began to disappear from the head, and strands of light spilled out and finally vanished without a trace.

Reimu Hakurei exhaled, her pupils flashing blue light, and slammed her exorcism wand into the ground.

Pong!

The barrier shattered.

The mansion appeared out of thin air on the spot.

The marks on the rough wooden gate of the courtyard remained unchanged from before they disappeared.

Akina Sawaya brushed his fingertips across the surface and stood there for a long time.

Although it was only a few weeks apart, he felt as if he had been gone for months, and he had a strange sense of things being different now.

"Aren't you going to invite us in for tea?" Fujiwara no Mokou grinned.

"How could that be?" Qiu Mingze shook his head, suppressing the thought, and stepped forward to push open the courtyard gate. "Please come in, everyone."

The gate was quite wide, so there was no need to queue up and enter one by one; we walked in side by side.

The most eye-catching thing in the courtyard now is the cherry blossom tree in the very center, its green leaves swaying in the breeze, completely unaffected by the seasons.

Under the tree, the Great Fairy was lying there, still unconscious, while Nikua was crouching beside her, watching over her.

Upon seeing Akina Sawa enter, Nikua's eyes lit up, and she jumped up to him, calling out, "Akina..."

"Call me brother." Akina Ze also pressed down on Nikua's head, interrupting her.

"Can I not call you 'brother'?"

Nikua pouted, displeased, as her head was patted.

"If you won't call me 'brother,' then what will you call me?"

“I…” Nikua reluctantly called out, though unwillingly, following Akina Zeya’s instructions, “Akina-nii.”

"Good boy, that's what you call a good boy."

Akina Ze laughed heartily, picked up Nikua, and spun her around.

After all the twists and turns, it's still the hug from your own family that's most comfortable.

At this moment, the great fairy lying on the ground also woke up. She subconsciously reached out her hand, but there was nothing beside her.

Akina Sawa, who was holding Nikua, noticed it too. He squatted down, reached out and held the Great Fairy's hand, "From now on, you'll be living in my house. Welcome to our family, Dai-chan."

The great fairy looked around, a hint of disappointment flashing in her eyes. She stared blankly at the hand that Akina Ze also reached out, and finally clenched it.

"Get up." Akina Ze also took the great fairy's hand and helped her stand up.

Now I'm really holding one in my left arm and leading another by the hand.

"I'm warning you, being a luoli fetishist is illegal!"

Unable to bear it any longer, Fujiwara no Mokou elbowed Akina Sawaya in the waist.

Suddenly attacked in the abdomen, Akina Sawa responded, bending over as well:

"What are you saying! I've always treated them like younger sisters."

"I don't want to be a younger sister..."

Nikua's voice was very soft, almost inaudible.

Yuyuko Saigyouji, who had been observing from the sidelines, warned Youmu Konpaku, "Remember, this person is dangerous. You must be careful of him in the future."

"Is it dangerous? Akina-kun can't beat me anyway?"

Recalling Akina Sawa's performance in the battle, Youmu Konpaku looked puzzled.

Saigyouji Yuyuko patted Youmu's head and smiled without saying a word.

"Stop messing around!"

Seeing this scene, Reimu Hakurei was furious and smacked Akina Zeya on the head with her exorcism stick. "Go and prepare a dinner for us! You promised to treat us to a big meal afterwards."

"Don't rush, let me check how much food we have in the kitchen. We promised you there would be plenty for the dinner," Qiu Mingze replied, scratching his head.

The house has been recovered, and it is indeed something to celebrate.

"You probably can't manage on your own, right? I know best what Lady Yuyuko likes to eat, I'll help you."

As someone who is practically Saigyouji Yuyuko's personal 'caretaker,' how could you possibly let Akina Sawa bear the burden all by herself?

She volunteered to help prepare the dinner party with Akina Ze.

"Then let me help too."

Seeing that Youmu was about to go into the kitchen to help, Reimu Hakurei couldn't sit still and offered to help as well.

Akina Ze was naturally overjoyed. A dish is usually made up of multiple steps, and stir-frying is just one part of it. The more people, the better.

Aside from the two fairies who do nothing but cause trouble, there are also Saigyouji Yuyuko and Fujiwara no Mokou in the current situation.

Seeing everyone rushing to help, how could Fujiwara no Mokou remain indifferent?

She looked around the room to see what she could do, and suddenly, her eyes lit up.

"Let me disinfect it for you."

Fujiwara no Mokou pointed to a dining table and said, "This table has been sitting unused for so long, it definitely needs to be cleaned up."

Before anyone could respond, a fiery snake shot out from Fujiwara no Mokou's hand.

Instantly, flames erupted across the entire wooden table surface.

But soon, it seemed that not only flames, but also thick smoke rose up and filled the room.

"Mokou! What are you doing?"

The smoke from the burning damp wood choked Reimu Hakurei, causing her to cough incessantly.

Akina Zeya quickly opened the doors and windows to ventilate the room, but a gust of cold wind blew in from outside.

This is truly a case of experiencing both extremes.

stab~

Just then, a stream of sweet dew fell from the sky, extinguishing the flames. Seeing that no more thick smoke was coming from the source, Nikua withdrew her power.

Although the land cannot be irrigated in winter because there is no planting, the water fairy is not completely useless; it can still easily extinguish this small fire.

Nikua smiled smugly, waiting for Akina Ze to praise her as well, and hopefully, he'd also give her a head pat.

On the other side, Fujiwara no Mokou apologized to Akina Sawa with a look of remorse, saying, "I'm sorry, your wooden table is too easy to ignite."

"It's alright, please sit down first, I'll go pour you some tea." Qiu Mingze nodded as well.

What else can I say? Just sit quietly.

Chapter 56 The Correct Way to Hoe the Land

With a splitting headache, Akina Ze also got out of bed, clutching his forehead and covering himself with a thick blanket. He couldn't quite remember when he had fallen asleep.

Last night was a great time. Although the dishes on the table were just simple stir-fries, there was still a lot of variety. In particular, Akina Ze reluctantly took out some of his treasured sake from the cellar to add to the fun.

Everyone was very happy, and Akina Sawa even got completely drunk. He couldn't recall anything about what happened after he got drunk, but he probably had a very pleasant time afterwards.

Sunlight streamed directly through the window; it was already the morning of the second day.

Akina Ze stretched and neatly folded the blanket, preparing to wash up.

As he strolled through the living room, he was surprised to find that the dining table, which should have been a mess, was now spotless, and even the floor had been swept.

Good morning, Mr. Akina.

Looking to the side, one could see the great fairy wearing an oversized apron that hung down to the ground and was rolled up, and holding a broom in her hand.

"You made all of this?" Akina Sawa asked in surprise.

"Hmm." The Great Fairy nodded obediently, holding the broom in her hand with some hesitation. "I saw that Mr. Akina was working too hard, so I thought I'd help clean up."

Good boy/girl...

Tears welled up in his eyes and were about to flow down, and Akina Zeya's eyes were slightly red.

He sniffed and said, "I haven't had any hardship to speak of. This is all I should do. From now on, you can just be like Nikua."

Nikua is still fast asleep in her little bed. There's another pillow next to hers; the great fairy probably slept there last night too.

Fortunately, when this fairy bed was built, it was constructed with the intention of making it large, otherwise it might not have been able to accommodate two fairies.

"Go have fun."

As he spoke, Akina Sawa reached out to pat the Great Fairy's head, but then remembered that he had just gotten up and hadn't taken care of his hygiene, so he withdrew his hand.

Seeing that the Great Fairy nodded in agreement, Akina Sawa walked towards the pool. However, after looking back, he realized that the Great Fairy was still cleaning and had not stopped.

With a sigh, Akina Ze stopped worrying about it. This was actually quite good, unlike Nikua, who did nothing but eat and sleep. If fairies didn't have the ability to gain weight, she might have become a big fat pig by now.

He scooped up the icy well water with both hands and splashed it on his face. The biting cold instantly cleared Akina Ze's mind.
