Yukari Yakumo narrowed her eyes and said, "That feeling is confusing too, isn't it? I understand it to some extent. Every day you open your eyes and look at the scene in the gap, completely unaware of how much time has passed, how long you've slept..."
Kaguya Houraisan nodded and said, "So you really have failed in your duty as a sage..."
Yukari Yakumo paused for a moment before smiling and saying, "Our youkai sage... is generally quite competent, but there's been a slight dereliction of duty, but that's not important..."
"Hmm? Isn't Gensokyo your most precious treasure?"
Yukari Yakumo took a sip of her sake and said gently, "Yes, that will never change, but we also possess other precious treasures..."
"That ring?"
"Hmm...that's one of our most precious treasures...besides that, we have two other precious things..."
"what?"
Yukari Yakumo said gently, "One is the man we love most, and the other is our sisters and family..."
Kaguya Houraisan paused for a moment before smiling and saying, "You should say that one of your most precious things is... home, right?"
Yukari Yakumo smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes, home...we have a home now..."
This statement was very peaceful, but Kaguya Houraisan felt a sense of unease, as if this great demon, this sage of demons, had never had a home before.
Kaguya Houraisan sighed and said, "Perhaps... you'll be a good woman in the future..."
"I've always been a good woman, and I always will be."
"What is it? A good mother?"
Yukari Yakumo blushed but nodded anyway, saying, "Don't I seem like a good mother? More than anything... why did you suddenly come back?"
Kaguya Houraisan sighed and said, "Endless time... anticipation is the most precious, the most valuable thing in this endless time..."
Yukari Yakumo smiled and said, "Did you ever look forward to it?"
"Me? Maybe... but now I have my own expectations too..."
Yukari Yakumo paused for a moment, then asked in confusion, "What is it?"
After taking the sake bowl from Yukari Yakumo's hand and drinking it all in one gulp, Kaguya Houraisan said softly, "Let Eirin... the most important person to us... also spend this endless time filled with anticipation, surprise, joy, and happiness..."
"Endless time?"
Kaguya Houraisan smiled and said, "This... is Eientei..."
Yukari Yakumo smiled and said, "Forever... It seems you also hope for some change..."
"I don't deny it... Oh dear, this is the first time Eirin has ever cooked so slowly..."
"Really? I thought it was Yonglin's first time cooking for someone else."
"Of course not, Eirin is a great cook, otherwise what would Eientei eat... After all, Eirin is a model of a virtuous wife and loving mother, she's super outstanding."
Yukari Yakumo raised an eyebrow, smiled, and said, "A virtuous wife? A good mother?"
Kaguya Houraisan smiled slightly, and the two of them remained silent, tacitly agreeing, as they sat quietly drinking and gazing at the lost bamboo forest before them...

Chapter 145 Have you ever felt your heart flutter? A young girl's feelings (Please subscribe~)
If we disregard her appearance and demeanor and focus solely on her current state, who would believe that this girl sitting on the rooftop, holding fried assortment in one hand and a small sake bowl in the other, is the former Moon Princess and the mistress of Eientei?
Yukari Yakumo breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Kaguya, there's something I've always wanted to ask you."
"Hmm? What's the problem? You have another question?"
"Of course, we just want to know, Kaguya, don't you find it lonely living in this quiet place all the time?"
Kaguya Houraisan thought for a moment and said, "Time will fade many things. It doesn't matter where you hide; whether it's cold or not makes no difference. Besides... sometimes you don't really need any excitement..."
"Sometimes? For example?"
Kaguya Houraisan thought for a moment and said, "For example... when a room full of friends who will grow old and die successfully gain your friendship..."
Yukari Yakumo didn't say anything more. After a long silence, Kaguya Houraisan suddenly laughed and said, "Hey, Yukari, you said that Mr. Shiraha hasn't said he'd come looking for you yet. Did you get dumped?"
Yukari Yakumo rolled her eyes and said irritably, "Get lost! You're the one who got dumped. Shiraha's problem is his dedication to cooking. Jokes like that are scary..."
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but... Purple..."
"Ok?"
Is dating interesting?
Yukari Yakumo thought for a moment and said, "Is this interesting...? As for this question... I can only say one thing: dating is dating, and love is love. They are two different things."
"Huh? What do you mean?"
Yukari Yakumo thought for a moment and said, "Being in love is about excitement and novelty, while romance is about peace and anticipation... Haven't you noticed that we haven't done anything interesting in a long time?"
"Hmm...that's true, Eirin mentioned it before."
"say what?"
Kaguya Houraisan chuckled and said, "Eirin said... Yukari is suddenly being so honest, it feels like something's missing from Gensokyo."
Yukari Yakumo paused for a moment before laughing and saying, "What kind of image do we actually have...? But it doesn't matter anyway... Kaguya, what do you think Eirin will do?"
Kaguya Houraisan said softly, "Eirin...Eirin knows what she needs...because I've told her the answer to her question..."
Yukari Yakumo paused for a moment before laughing and saying, "That's a foul... But did you come back because you were worried that Eirin is the kind of person who wouldn't dare to copy even if the answers were handed to her?"
Kaguya Houraisan said gently, "Perhaps. In the endless expanse of time, the power of choice is far too limited, so one must be more or less careful and cautious."
"You talk like you've ever been in a relationship..."
Kaguya Houraisan thought for a moment and said, "That makes sense. Why don't I also go and give myself to Mr. Shiraha? I don't want designer bags or jewelry, just food, drinks, and lodging, and maybe some games to play with. As long as he can stay with me forever, that's fine. If you can do that, we can get married right away."
Yukari Yakumo rolled her eyes and said, "Isn't that exactly how you are right now?"
Kaguya Houraisan waved her hand and said, "Don't talk nonsense. I'm still a virgin, not married yet. It's not like I'm already a proprietress."
"I feel like if you stay home too long, you might actually become the boss's wife..."
Kaguya Houraisan thought about it seriously for a moment and said, "Hmm? Is that so? If that's the case... it's not impossible..."
"what?"
Kaguya Houraisan said very seriously, "Look, Mr. Shiraha is handsome and considerate, an all-around cook, strong, makes me feel very safe, his home is lively, the accommodation is good, my sisters and Shiraha can always be with me, I have someone to play games with, he has money, he can flirt, and he doesn't have any bad habits..."
Yakumo Yukari looked at Houraisan Kaguya with a "you're so perceptive" expression. In this matter, praising Shiroha made her happier than praising her, Yakumo Yukari. Yakumo Yukari also felt a sense of pride for no reason. Isn't he excellent, man!
Kaguya Houraisan thought for a moment and said, "Eh? I think I've really convinced myself... Purple! Mr. Shiraha, please share some with me!"
Looking at Kaguya Houraisan, whose eyes showed no expectation whatsoever, Yukari Yakumo said irritably, "We only got a little bit. If you want some, go get some yourself."
Kaguya Houraisan knew that the shrewd old youkai, Yukari Yakumo, had figured it out, but she simply waved her hand and said, "Yukari, you should have just gone along with what I said; that would have made things more interesting..."
"We're not clowns in a circus, and besides... Kaguya..."
"Ok?"
Yukari Yakumo said gently, "What do you think feelings... or more precisely, love are?"
Kaguya Houraisan paused for a moment, and Yukari Yakumo smiled and said, "Let me ask you another way... Kaguya, have you ever felt anything for me?"
Kaguya Houraisan looked at Yukari Yakumo, and after a long while, just as she was about to speak, she heard Yukari Yakumo say with a smile, "Oh my, it smells so good. It seems that Eirin's Meiling porridge is ready. It's really good."
"Mmm...it definitely smells better now..."
"Even?"
Kaguya Houraisan said softly, "How many times do you think Eirin made Meiling porridge?"
"Hmm? Many times?"
Kaguya Houraisan thought for a moment and said, "This should be the happiest time Reisen has had in all these years, because she doesn't have to test the medicine and can just wait to drink porridge."
"Pfft... Looks like they've experimented a lot, huh? Wait, could it be for today..."
Kaguya Houraisan thought for a moment and said, "I don't know if it's because of today, but I do know that... this is the first time I've ever seen such fragrant Meiling porridge in Eientei..."
Do you know why this porridge smells so good?
"you know?"
"Because this porridge contains the heartfelt sentiment of a young girl..."
"Hmm? This is really interesting..."

Chapter 146 Eirin's Dungeon Map, Yagokoro Eirin's Attack (Please subscribe!)
While Yukari Yakumo and Kaguya Houraisan were chatting, Eirin Yagokoro was also silently staring at the white, clean porcelain pot in front of her in the kitchen.
Bai Yu nodded and said gently, "Hmm... Judging solely from the aroma, this dish is already a very successful creation. Miss Yagokoro's culinary skills are truly impressive."
Yagokoro Eirin shook her head and said gently, "Compared to Mr. Shiraha, my meager cooking skills are really nothing to brag about. It's just that this dish is too simple. Mr. Shiraha is too kind."
Bai Yu shook his head and said, "I run a restaurant, so I know very well that your cooking skills are already excellent, Miss Yagokoro. There's no need to be so modest. Sometimes it's okay to be a little proud."
"Mr. Shiraha is really good at saying things like that..."
"That's probably the kind of thing most people like to hear. I just say the right thing at the right time, and I say things that are morally correct. I don't flatter or deny things without reason. Speaking is an art, just like cooking."
Eirin Yagokoro thought for a moment and said, "Is that so? It seems that some people do speak in a way that is profound yet very charming..."
"Yuko and Kirari are probably like that. However, people like that are usually more sentimental, so they tend to take certain relationships more seriously."
Yagokoro Eirin nodded in realization. Suddenly, a gurgling sound brought her back to her senses. She immediately turned around and turned off the fire. Just as she was about to open the lid, she saw a slender and beautiful hand stop her.
"Huh? What's wrong?"
"It seems you haven't remembered the burn from before. This is a ceramic pot, be careful not to burn your hand, remember to use a towel."
Eirin Yagokoro was also taken aback. She felt something was off. Why had she overlooked such common sense? Eirin Yagokoro picked up the towel, smiled, and said, "Perhaps I've been a little distracted lately while researching the new drug... Thank you, Mr. Shiraha."
"It's nothing, but what type are you researching?"
"It's probably something that increases stamina..."
Bai Yu paused for a moment and said, "Should I say that you are indeed worthy of being the pharmacist of Gensokyo, or should I say that you are indeed worthy of being Miss Yagokoro?"
Eirin Yagokoro asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, but is it really possible to research this?"
"Okay... Ah... I was so focused on that that I almost forgot Mr. Bai Yu, you didn't eat much at noon. Mr. Bai Yu, let me get you some porridge. I don't know if it will taste good..."
Looking at Yagokoro Eirin serving the porridge, Bai Yu felt a simple yet elegant gentleness. After Yagokoro Eirin placed the porridge in front of Bai Yu, Bai Yu noticed that the color was no longer pure white but had some purple hue, and it was also thicker, but it smelled even sweeter.
Bai Yu took it and put it aside. There was no other reason than that it was too hot. Bai Yu smiled and said, "It really looks very appetizing. Miss Yagokoro's Meiling porridge is a great success this time."
"Using purple sweet potatoes was a sudden idea of mine, so I don't know how it will taste..."
"It should be quite good... then I won't be polite and will start eating..."
After taking a spoonful, Shiraha blew on it and tasted it. Under Eirin Yagokoro's expectant gaze, he nodded and said softly, "Hmm... It tastes much richer and sweeter than I imagined. Miss Yagokoro's culinary skills are indeed very strong."
Eirin Yagokoro breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, saying, "That's good. I thought it was going to fail... Thank you so much, Mr. Shiraha, for teaching me how to make this dish."
"It's nothing. This is a dish that anyone can learn. Also, Miss Yagokoro, it's best to take the ceramic pot off the stove. Otherwise, the residual heat will cause the porridge to stick to the bottom of the pot, and the bottom of the pot will gradually change color."
Yagokoro Eirin nodded and put the porcelain pot aside. Shiraha continued to drink her porridge. The two chatted from time to time. Porridge and noodles are two different things that warm the stomach and fill you up. Especially thicker porridge, you can feel full after less than one bowl.
After finishing his drink, Bai Yu breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the sink beside him, asking in confusion, "Is this where you wash dishes?"
"Ah...yes, Mr. Shiraha, I can handle this..."
"It's alright, I can take care of it quickly. Miss Yagokoro made porridge, so I'll just wash the dishes. Consider it payment for the meal."
"this..."
Just as Yagokoro Eirin was about to say something, Shiraha had already started washing the dishes. Yagokoro Eirin watched quietly from the side, but she quickly came to her senses and turned around to tidy up the stove.
"Mr. Bai Yu, I can do it myself, there's nothing to tidy up..."
As Yagokoro Eirin was tidying up, she saw Shiraha come over to help, wiping the stove with a rag. Shiraha said gently, "It's nothing, just a small thing. I wonder where Yukari ran off to, acting like a little kid..."
"As for Zi... there shouldn't be any problems, Mr. Baiyu, you don't need to worry."
"Hmm... Is Yagokoro-san's hand better now?"
