Living with a magical girl, but a weirdo cadre

　But there is nothing we can do about it.

　For them, tiles, cement, and even reinforced concrete are all extremely fragile materials.

　Even the world itself is like this.

　Sometimes, when the five of them get carried away with their playful antics, it's not uncommon for tiles to break or even for an entire building to collapse.

　Therefore, the Snow Woman won't be angry or anything like that...

　If something is broken, you can just repair or replace it.

　With this thought in mind, the snow woman gently scooped up a spoonful of cream.

　He brandished the cake fork in his hand: "So, Shuten-dōji, what do you want with Cong Yu?"

　After Yuki-onna said that, Shuten-dōji, who was still immersed in his victory, realized that she had come to see Murasame because she had something important to discuss.

　"Oh, yes! Yes! It's a big deal, a very big deal!"

　Shuten-dōji said this with a very serious expression: "Takemikazuchi is completely unable to leave the house!"

　Takemikazuchi is one of the five kings of Japan, and the only king on Japan's side who doesn't have a human form... It's hard to say whether he's a strange "person".

　Could it be considered a monster?

　Furthermore, although he named himself Takemikazuchi, in reality, he should be classified as a Thunder Beast...

　It looks very similar to Reeve.

　However, what does it mean that I can't go out at all?

　Amidst Cong Yu's puzzled expression, Shuten sighed, "Takemirai is constantly shedding fur... his tail is almost bald."

　“Takemikazuchi previously approached Tamamo and asked her how to keep his tail hair long and smooth. Tamamo gave him a few bottles of hair conditioner.”

　"Unfortunately, the hair conditioner was useless... Of course, if nothing unexpected happens, Tamamo will definitely laugh at him mercilessly."

　"Then Takemikazuchi came to us again, begging us to ask Murakumo if we had any solutions. It seems his hair has really become very sparse."

　With a sigh, Shuten-dōji took a few sips of sake from his gourd and looked at Congyu: "So Congyu, do you have any clues? We think he's on the verge of depression."

　Congyu clasped his hands together in pity, praying for Takemikazuchi's fur, hoping that it would be reborn into a better family in its next life.

　But he was completely helpless.

　He doesn't usually care about shampoo brands or anything like that, and he doesn't keep any pets at home, completely... etc., maybe not.

　It can't be said that they didn't keep any "pets" at all.

　(The blonde magical girl who wishes to remain anonymous: ???)

　"That's terrible... If that's what you're saying, then the problem is indeed quite serious... Is Takemikazuchi still with you? In Kyoto?"

　Shuten nodded heavily at Cong Yu's words: "Yes, she's been holed up in our Oeyama area and hasn't wanted to go out at all."

　As Yuki-onna tidied the documents on her desk, a look of pity appeared on her face: "I can understand... Takemikazuchi probably won't want to see anyone until his hair grows back."

　Although the Snow Woman doesn't have any hair, just imagine what it would be like if her hair started falling out like crazy.

　Not only would they not want to go out and see people, they might not even want to leave their rooms, and they wouldn't even tell anyone about it.

　That's incredibly embarrassing.

　However, the Snow Woman also has something to say...

　"Speaking of which, Cong Yu, you won that competition about who had the best hair texture, right?"

　"Then Takemikazuchi is second, Tamamo is third, and I am fourth."

　As Yuki-onna spoke, ignoring the sulking fifth-ranked woman beside her, she said, "Back then, Tamamo asked Takemikazuchi how he maintained his health, and Takemikazuchi smugly replied that he didn't need any maintenance and could roll around on the ground all day without any problems..."

　"As a result of not taking care of his hair, he has ended up like this now."

　As she said this, she sighed, feeling that her long, snow-white hair was also very beautiful.

　"..." This might be karma.

　Cong Yu sighed, then nodded: "Then I'll go back and ask other people I know... If I get any news, I'll go to Mount Oe to find you."

　Then he remained silent for a while, patted Shuten-dōji on the shoulder, and said, "If there's no other way, then you should try to talk some sense into Takemikazuchi..."

　Otherwise, Cong Yu would be afraid of his purple clay teapots.

　Chapter 118 Monthly Exam and Industry Winter

　On the first day after the holiday, something big is about to happen for the students of Fuuto High School...

　Monthly exam... but there was only one test paper.

　A test paper that basically covers most of the subject knowledge points, and whose difficulty level is not low even in Japan.

　Even in a place as carefree as Fuuto High School, there are still monthly exams... Of course, grades don't really matter.

　Even if you fail all the exams, you don't need to retake them and you can graduate smoothly.

　Monthly exams, midterm exams, and final exams are all designed to give children who want to advance to higher education a final chance within a joyful educational environment.

　Such people are extremely rare, if not extremely rare.

　Therefore, many people start the exam by casually answering a few questions and then handing in their papers.

　Then we went to the playground to play ball.

　Cong Yu was one of these people. She finished the test at a similar pace to the students who were playing ball, then handed in her paper and left the classroom.

　Of course, everything he did was correct; he was just more efficient.

　Although I was a little worried that the girl named Kaori Miyami, who was the second-ranked student in Class C, might fall into depression because of this.

　However, since the other party said that Cong Yu didn't need to give way to her, then Cong Yu didn't care... If her brother came to her door, she could just beat him up again.

　However, Cong Yu completed the task with ease, but it was different for the child sitting in front of him, who wished to remain anonymous and whose surname was Yao Chuan.

　"..." Yaochuan Guang held his pen with a troubled expression, hesitatingly looking at the questions on the exam paper... He reluctantly wrote down what he didn't even know if he had done it correctly.

　The correct answer.

　Well, how should I put it?

　Unlike her classmates who had given up on studying, Yaochuan Guang's mind was on her studies. After all, she came to school because of her parents' long-cherished wish.

　Or rather, it was her parents' last wish.

　but.

　Yes, but... her level was surprisingly similar to those of her classmates who had lost all interest in studying.

　That might be a bit of an exaggeration, because Yaochuan Guang's knowledge base is relatively solid, but unfortunately his level isn't much higher.

　Cong Yu is different; Master Cong Yu is both tall and strong.

　Yao Chuan Guang didn't know how she finished the exam. Somewhat dazed, she found Cong Yu waiting for her outside the classroom.

　He then slumped dejectedly against the railing next to Cong Yu.

　It's like a house dog that goes out to fight a stray dog, loses, and then falls into emo.

　"Is it because you forgot all the knowledge from the first year of high school that you are completely unable to adapt after transferring schools?"

　Yaochuan Guang pursed his lips in response to Cong Yu's words.

　While this is partly the reason, actually... after returning home, Yaochuan Guang has to cook, wash dishes, and clean the living room.

　Then, after sorting the trash, go outside and throw it away.

　Only then can I lazily lie on the sofa and chat with everyone.

　After resting for a while, I took a shower and then went to Congyu's room to sleep... During this time, it's hard to say what time I could use to study.

　However, Yaochuan Guang did not say it aloud, but nodded, which can be regarded as an admission that Congyu had "forgotten all the knowledge points".

　Because everyone still needs her to take care of them.

　"Then, I'll tutor you from now on."

　As Cong Yu said this, she rested her chin on her hand and took on some tasks for herself: "Teach Lan Tianzhu some knowledge as well, so that she won't become illiterate..."

　Little Blue will probably die.

　As Yao Chuan Guang thought this, she then equated Xiao Lan with illiteracy in her mind, and immediately laughed: "Great! It's time to teach Xiao Lan!"

　Cong Yu chuckled softly.

　Then, he put on a very serious expression and asked, "Yaochuan Guang, let me ask you... your hair is so healthy, do you usually use any hair care products?"

　Congyu was still very concerned about Takemikazuchi's matter.

　Takemikazuchi is a tiny, fluffy, and adorable creature... but if it went bald, it would look really pitiful.

　Cong Yu imagined what Rayquaza would look like with his hair bald.

　That's scary.

　"..."

　Is your hair in good condition...?

　Although Hikari was happy because Congyu complimented her on her hair quality, she had never used any hair care products.

　"I just use shampoo normally."

　As she said this, Hikaru shook her head and replied very softly, "I'm a magical girl, so even if I roll around in the mud, it won't damage my hair."

　As he spoke, Hikaru couldn't help but reach out and smooth Congyu's long ponytail: "Besides, Congyu-chan, isn't your hair super pretty?"

　Like a black waterfall, it shimmered...

　Or rather, shimmering light—

　"..."

　"Oh, I see... Your explanation sounds familiar."

　With that assessment, Cong Yu grabbed Yao Chuan Guang's dog paw and moved it away: "But you also need to take care of yourself, lest you go bald later."

　Yaochuan Guang: "Bald! Bald head?!"

　-

　[Cong Yu: Hong, your hair looks so good. Do you usually use any hair care products?]

　【Rainbow Under the Red House: ?】

　[Nijishita Kurenai: No, I just used regular shampoo... And even so, isn't your hair actually prettier?]

　[Cong Yu: That's alright then.]

　[Hongxiawuhong: Why are you suddenly talking about hair?]

　[Cong Yu: A friend of mine is starting to lose hair... Don't get me wrong, I'm not talking about myself.]

　[Rainbow Under the Red House: A woman?]

　[Cong Yu: Male, belonging to the animal category.]

　-

　After replying, Cong Yu felt reassured by Hong's voice on the other end of the phone. He sighed and then found the other contacts.

　[Cong Yu: Doctor! Doctor!!]

　【doctor:……】

　[Doctor: Your broken sword is undergoing miniaturization modifications, don't rush it.]

　[Cong Yu: You're not allowed to say that about it! It's the Sword of the Seven Emperors!]

　[Doctor: Who cares about you... Just don't rush me.]

　[Cong Yu: No rush, I have other important things to do... It's like this, a friend of mine has started losing hair, do you have any recommendations for conditioner?]

　[Doctor: I don't know about this... Are you referring to yourself as the friend you're talking about?]

　[Cong Yu: No, it's a strange person in animal form.]

　[Doctor: I might be able to solve this. Could you send me a picture of the patient later? Just saying this doesn't help me much.]

　[Cong Yu: Okay, okay!]
