Chapter 144 Sacred Sakura Cleansing Ritual, You'd Think I Traveled to Teyvat
Natsuki looked at Hakuto's inner thoughts and felt a slight stir. Indeed, as Hakuto said, since they knew the whereabouts of a Legendary Cooking Utensil, they had to get it. Otherwise, if it was lost again, it would be hard to find.
[It definitely won't be easy for me to get it myself. Should I ask my wife Natsuki to help me get it? My wife Natsuki possesses the highest-level space magic. She could probably handle it in one trip. More importantly, I don't trust anyone else to do this kind of thing. But my wife Natsuki is different. She's my wife, after all.]
Natsuki inwardly complained: 'What do you mean "your wife"? Don't just say things on your own, you idiot who can't even take a hint.'
"Um, Natsuki-chan, there's something I need to tell you."
Knowing what Hakuto was going to say, Natsuki pretended not to know.
"What is it?"
"I know the whereabouts of a Legendary Cooking Utensil. So, could you go and bring it back?"
Natsuki's face showed surprise, then she looked at Hakuto. "Are you serious?"
"Of course. But that Legendary Cooking Utensil is on the mainland. If you can go there, can you help me bring it back?"
Natsuki looked at Hakuto and stood up.
"If what you're saying is true, I will help you bring back the Legendary Cooking Utensil. But the premise is that this Legendary Cooking Utensil doesn't have an owner."
"Don't worry. No one has recognized that Legendary Cooking Utensil."
A trace of sarcasm hung at the corner of Hakuto's mouth. Sitting on a treasure mountain without knowing it. The Yagami Family, heh.
Natsuki didn't think about that too much.
"Okay. Give me the address. Tomorrow, I'll put the Legendary Cooking Utensil in front of you."
Hakuto quickly gave Natsuki the address. After noting it down, Natsuki assured him, "If there really is a Legendary Cooking Utensil at the place you mentioned, I will bring it back. Now, there's one more thing I want to ask if you're interested in participating in."
"What is it?"
Hakuto asked subconsciously.
"With the Nine Provinces Barrier shattered, the defilement in all of Japan is constantly increasing. The increase in defilement also increases negative energy. So the Japanese authorities plan to hold a Sacred Sakura Cleansing Ritual to purify the defilement. I want to know if you're interested in participating."
Sacred Sakura Cleansing Ritual?
Hakuto's expression became strange, 'Wow. Sacred Sakura Cleansing Ritual. Is this Inazuma?'
But after a little thought, Hakuto agreed.
"Okay. I can participate."
[Sacred Sakura Cleansing Ritual? Although I'm not very interested, purifying defilement can reduce the birth of Evil Spirits, which can reduce potential danger to a certain extent. So I'll participate.]
[After all, this matter started because of me.]
Natsuki wrote an address and handed a card to Hakuto.
"Take this to the address I gave you. Someone there will tell you what to do. Everything is up to you. Do it if you want, don't if you don't. I'm going to the mainland to get the Legendary Cooking Utensil for you."
As she spoke, Natsuki stood up and walked to Hakuto.
"Then, before we part, let me give you a little gift."
Saying this, Natsuki cradled Hakuto's face and kissed him.
The jelly-like sensation on his lips made Hakuto's body stiffen uncontrollably.
Natsuki looked at Hakuto. "I'm going to get the Legendary Cooking Utensil now."
Watching Natsuki disappear, Hakuto pursed his lips for a while.
[Hmm, my wife Natsuki kissed me. Mouth to mouth. I'm a bit happy and also a bit conflicted. Why did my wife Natsuki kiss me? Does she like me? Or was it because of the Legendary Cooking Utensil?]
Natsuki, who had already left, furrowed her brow. Hakuto's words annoyed her. Her slightly narrowed eyes showed that she was currently in a bad mood. When she got back with the Legendary Cooking Utensil, she would definitely make Hakuto pay.
[Whatever. I won't think about it anymore. No matter what, I should go to the place my wife Natsuki mentioned first. Sacred Sakura Cleansing Ritual. You'd think I time-traveled to Teyvat. Speaking of which, am I going to see the pink fox Yae Miko, Raiden Makoto, and Raiden Ei at the Sacred Sakura Cleansing Ritual later? Nah, impossible. I transmigrated to a mixed anime world, not the game world of Genshin Impact.]
Thinking this, Hakuto left Seigaku Academy and took a car to the place Natsuki had told him about.
"I didn't come to the wrong place, right?"
[Did I come to the wrong place? But that's impossible. This is exactly the place my wife Natsuki mentioned. But all I see is an adult products company. lol. It can't be that my wife Natsuki wants me to buy something from the adult products company to use with her.]
Natsuki: 'When I get back, you'll be in trouble.'
Hakuto stood at the entrance, then took out the piece of paper Natsuki had given him and compared it, confirming he hadn't made a mistake.
'Should I go in?'
Hesitating for a moment, Hakuto then walked inside.
But at the entrance, he was stopped.
"Please show your pass."
Hakuto showed the pass Natsuki had given him. After verification, the person opened the door for him. But after entering, Hakuto found that the inside and outside were two completely different worlds.
"Please follow me."
A staff member led Hakuto to an elevator.
Then they took him to the top floor.
"Please wait a moment. The meeting will begin in half an hour."
The person bowed slightly to Hakuto and then walked out.
Looking at the people already in the conference room, Hakuto raised an eyebrow.
There were already three people in the conference room, all girls.
One of them, wearing a black sailor uniform with long, straight black hair, sat silently to the side, holding a sword.
The other two wore similar red and white Miko outfits.
One of them had a cold expression, while the other had a smile on her face.
"Hello. I'm Jindai Komaki."
The smiling Miko introduced herself to Hakuto.
