I'm surrounded by devil sisters!

Outside the main gate of the front yard, Hanakaiin Fukui turned his head and glanced at the dark red bloodstains still remaining on the arms of Busujima Saeko's yukata.

"If I walk back like this, someone will definitely see me and call the police, so if possible, I still hope that you can just tell me the name of your hotel and room number."

"Well, of course..."

Without any hesitation, Busujima Saeko smiled and nodded.

The scene changes, just like when they returned to Hanakaiin's house from Kiyomizu-dera Temple.

With a flash of golden light, Hanakaiin Fukui and Busujima Saeko appeared in a guest room of the Kyoto Hotel.

Because Busujima Saeko pulled the room card out of the card slot before leaving, the room was completely dark, with only the night view of the city outside the window, mixed with the faint moonlight and starlight, filtering into the room.

"Wait, let me turn on the light first..."

Busujima Saeko said as she fumbled out the room card from her yukata and her voice gradually faded away.

After about five or six seconds, with the faint light shining in from the window, the kendo girl finally groped her way to the entrance of the guest room.

Click.

With the sound of the room card being inserted into the card reader, bright lights instantly illuminated the entire room.

"That's right, Hanakaiin's teleportation technique is really accurate."

Looking around the familiar layout of the room, Busujima Saeko breathed a sigh of relief.

"Well, since it's been sent back, then there's no problem."

Huakaiyuan Fogui shrugged nonchalantly.

"Then I'll go back first..."

As he spoke, the familiar golden magnetic field glow appeared around him again.

But Busujima Saeko called out to him in time.

"Please wait a moment."

"……What's wrong?"

Huakaiyuan Fogui stopped the teleportation spell and cast an inquiring look.

"Well... since we're here, why don't you sit down for a while?"

The kendo girl, who always gave people the impression of calmness, elegance and composure, now showed an unusually awkward expression.

"We just fought the Tsuchigumo and then had such a long meeting. Can you at least have some tea to moisten your throat before leaving?"

Hua Kaiyuan Buddhist Retreat "..."

Saying that she wanted to sit for a while and drink some tea was definitely just an excuse. Since Busujima Saeko said that, she must have something she wanted to tell him.

Thinking of this, Huakaiyuan Fogui nodded.

"Okay."

"Well, I'll go boil some water."

Seeing the young man sitting down at the coffee table by the window, Busujima Saeko also smiled slightly and took out the hotel's disinfected and cleaned electric kettle from the window at the entrance.

There is nothing much to say about the tea-making process. After less than ten minutes, two cups of steaming hot tea were placed on the coffee table by the window.

The two of them sat down across from each other at a small round table.

"Actually, I originally wanted to use professional tea sets to make tea, but unfortunately, the hotels here don't seem to have any."

Across the rising white mist, Busujima Saeko spoke in front of a glass filled with boiling hot tea.

"Tea ceremony? It doesn't matter. I don't know anything about it anyway."

Huakaiyuan Fogui picked up the cup, blew on it symbolically, and then took a small sip.

"I can't even tell the type or quality of tea leaves. The best I can tell is whether it's black tea or green tea."

"That's really..."

Hearing this, Busujima Saeko couldn't help but laugh.

After all, generally speaking, according to the inherent impression, the heirs of a big family like this are mostly knowledgeable about astronomy and geography, and are good at tasting tea and appreciating flowers to cultivate their character since childhood. They are elegant and profound.

However, the impression that Hanakaiin Fukui has given people so far is that he doesn't care about these red tape at all, which is very... well, it should be said to be unexpected.

However, neither of them was the type to like excessive politeness, and after a few simple words, Busujima Saeko became quiet again.

"Regarding what happened tonight... well, how should I put it, Huakaiyuan Junior, I have something I want to ask you, and please... please answer truthfully."

"Oh that's fine."

Huakaiyuan Fogui took another sip of tea.

"Just ask."

"Then I'm not welcome..."

In contrast to the boy's frank attitude, Busujima Saeko became more and more hesitant. The words were on the tip of her tongue but she couldn't say them for some reason.

It's like being constipated.

"It's about... about my technique. You, Hanakaiin-san, also saw it today at Kiyomizu-dera Temple. So... so I wanted to ask you, san'san, what are your thoughts...?"

The simple sentence was forcibly broken into six parts. The kendo girl at this moment was no longer as calm and composed as usual. Instead, she lowered her head slightly, like a child who made a mistake and was criticized by the teacher. She stared through the transparent coffee table at her clenched fists on her knees below and spoke haltingly.

As the saying goes, the expansion of a domain is the most essential analysis of the caster's soul. Busujima Saeko knew very early on that she, who possessed such a domain, was essentially a battle maniac with an extremely bad character, indulging in the pleasure of fighting with the enemy.

Therefore, she never reveals her domain to others, and there is no record of it even in the archives of the Spell Association.

But this secret that has been hidden until now has finally been discovered.

And he happened to be a junior from Huakaiyuan...

For Busujima Saeko, the classmates at Jujutsu High School were more like colleagues in the company than classmates. Moreover, they were simply in the same company and had no interaction with each other on a daily basis. As for Gojo Satoru, there was no need to say more.

Because of this, only when Hanakaiin Fukui calls her "Bujima-senpai" does Busjima Saeko feel that she also has friends of the same age.

So if possible, she didn't want to lose her only "friend of the same age" so far.

But there was no way, the secret had been discovered, and even if she wanted to continue hiding it, it was useless.

In that case, then at least...

Like a criminal awaiting trial, Busujima Saeko closed her eyes resignedly.

Then the next second she heard the boy's voice.

“I think it’s pretty good.”

The flowers bloom in the courtyard and the Buddha returns.

"Very practical."

……Eh?

Chapter 439: Junior, are you willing to accept this sick me?

In the quiet hotel room, the atmosphere at the coffee table by the window was a little silent.

After making his comments, Huakaiyuan Fogui didn't say anything else. He just picked up the teacup, blew on it, and took a small sip.

He had not yet realized the meaning of what Busujima Saeko had just asked him, and simply regarded it as relevant information about spells.

After all, although Hanakaiin Fukui himself is not a sorcerer, for him, there is no essential difference between spiritual power, spell power or magic power. The only difference is the strength and usage.

If we only talk about the strength of Busujima Saeko's field deployment, it is undoubtedly quite excellent.

From the performance point of view, the expansion of Busujima Saeko's domain can directly increase her attack power from the initial level where she can't even break through the Tsuchigumo's skin defense to the level where she can cut off an arm with one blow.

If the neck was cut off instead of the arm, the head would have been cut off immediately.

In short, if the improvement is significant enough, then there is probably no more area where expansion would be useful.

What's more, Busujima Saeko's domain has an extremely strong healing effect. Even such a serious injury as an open fracture of the arm can be healed in an instant. Such healing intensity can almost be called "immortal".

If I have to say the only possible pain point is the endurance of the spell power.

But even so, it is already very powerful and can almost be regarded as a human-shaped nuclear bomb.

Especially for sorcerers, most of them carry out missions in groups of three. For Busujima Saeko, even if she encounters two special-grade cursed spirits at the same time during the mission, she only needs to let the other two teammates hold them off for a while, giving her a few seconds to kill one of them first.

Of course, the more likely possibility is that Senior Busujima let her two teammates go first, and then she could use her ultimate to kill both special-grade cursed spirits in one second.

Who wouldn’t want a teammate like this?

It's so reliable.

On this side, Hanakaiin Fukui was still drinking tea and analyzing how to use the kendo girl's skills in his mind, but on the other side, it was completely different for Busujima Saeko.

It took her a full ten seconds to come back to her senses from the boy's answer, and her eyes, raised in surprise, were filled with disbelief.

"practical?"

Busujima Saeko lowered her head and almost squeezed out these two dry words from her throat.

Although she will fall into a completely unconscious state after activating [Eight Thousand Flows: All Ended], her consciousness will immediately wake up after the battle is over.

If Busujima Saeko remembered correctly, when she regained consciousness on the Kiyomizu stage in Kiyomizu-dera Temple, she clearly saw that the blade in her hand was against the fingers of her junior Hanakaiin.

There is only one possibility that could have led to that situation, and that is that she attacked Hanakaiin's junior during the time she lost consciousness after the field was deployed.

That's right, she personally swung the blade at the Hanakaiin junior.

"Hmm? What's wrong, Senior? You don't look too well. Are you okay? Are you still feeling unwell after the battle?"

Glancing over and noticing the strangeness of his senior sister, Huakaiyuan Fogui asked with a slight glance.

The next second, he disappeared from the chair and came behind the kendo girl. He placed his sword-like finger gently on the right side of Busujima Saeko's fair and slender neck like an old Chinese doctor taking a pulse.

The pulse is steady and there doesn't seem to be any problem... huh?

Huakaiyuan Fogui suddenly felt someone holding his fingers.

Looking down, I saw that Busujima Saeko, who had been silent before, had raised her head at some point. Her deep blue eyes were filled with a faint glint under the warm light of the guest room. She was biting her lower lip lightly as if she might cry at any moment.

"Brother Huakaiyuan, why did you lie to me?"

"Lying? No."

Huakaiyuan Fogui was even more baffling.

“I do think it’s very practical…”

"That's absolutely impossible!!"

As if stimulated by the boy's affirmative answer, Busujima Saeko's voice suddenly rose several degrees.

"When I regained consciousness on the Qingshui stage, I clearly saw my knife cut into your finger. I attacked you unconsciously. How could you praise someone else's domain after being attacked like that?!"

"that……"

Huakaiyuan Fogui let out a cry of "Oh".

"Although you did attack me at that time, but..."

"But what?"

Changing her previous hesitant attitude, after putting the topic on the table, Busujima Saeko seemed to have completely turned on the self-exposure mode. She no longer tried to hide anything, but stared directly at the boy and asked him questions one by one.

Huakaiyuan Fogui was also a little uncomfortable with her sudden change.

"Do you have to say it?"

"Of course!"

The kendo girl's attitude was very firm.

Okay~

Huakaiyuan Fogui was left with no choice but to shrug his shoulders.

"To be honest, since you're still a bit of a noob to me, I don't really care about this."

"..."

"..."

This simple sentence instantly silenced the atmosphere in the room, even though Huakaiyuan Fogui had emphasized the key four words "for me".
