“Ishikawa, that man is…”
One of the gyaru girls spoke, her tone tinged with fear.
Ishikawa clearly remembered Makoto’s face as well.
“Isn’t he the same guy from last time when we messed with Karuizawa?
Karuizawa is probably being kept by him.
Tsk, who would’ve thought he’s loaded!”
“Let’s go.”
“Tch…”
Ishikawa clicked her tongue in displeasure.
They were delinquent gyaru, but ultimately, they were still underage high school students.
When minors encounter a young and strong adult, they naturally feel a sense of inferiority.
This was partly why Kasumigaoka Utaha didn’t dare argue back when he criticized her to her face.
Similarly, these gyaru girls didn’t dare confront Makoto head-on either.
They were about to leave.
The leader, Ishikawa, even raised her middle finger at Makoto with a fierce expression, clearly unwilling to back down.
“…”
Makoto smiled magnanimously, but the smile held no warmth.
Hayasaka Ai, while covering Kei’s eyes with both hands, was observing the changes in his expression.
Seeing his indifferent eyes now, her heart suddenly began to pound wildly for some reason!
A *hissing* sound arose.
The transparent air seemed to be shaking violently!
Not just the air, the two walls of the narrow alley also began to tremble slightly.
At first, it was just a faint tremor, but the shaking quickly intensified.
Insects hiding in the crevices of the stones fled in panic, a dense swarm that would make anyone with trypophobia scream.
The quiet alleyway seemed like a giant snake just waking up!
The narrow ground suddenly bulged upwards!
Immediately after, the two walls slammed into each other with a crash!
The earth moved, bricks and stones shook!
Everything was twisting!
A rumbling sound completely drowned out the girls’ desperate screams.
Six kinds of immense, endless forces, carrying countless bricks and soil, wreaked havoc in this confined space, mercilessly crushing everything!
Hayasaka Ai stared at all this, dumbfounded.
About a dozen seconds later, after her worldview had completely collapsed, the chaotic bricks and concrete blocks returned to their original positions.
It looked no different from before, only the ground had changed slightly.
It wasn’t as flat and hard.
It was a bit damp and soft, because the soil from below had churned up.
“Alright, it’s settled.”
As if he had just stepped on a few cockroaches, Makoto clapped his hands, took Kei’s hand, and walked out of the alley.
The girl, with her eyes covered, hadn’t seen what just happened.
“What happened?
She kept looking back, her expression bewildered.
“Where are those bitches?”
Probably buried underground.
Who cared.
“I scared them off.”
“Hmph, those bastards only dare to bully me…”
Kei tugged on Makoto’s sleeve.
“Makoto, how did you know we were here?”
“Just a coincidence.”
“Really?
A coincidence?”
“I couldn’t possibly be stalking you, could I?”
“That’s true, hehe.”
Makoto wasn’t telling the truth.
Actually, he had noticed something was slightly off with her expression this morning.
Using the physiognomy skills inherited from Kibutsuji Makoto, he saw that Kei would face some minor troubles today.
He wasn’t sure how accurate it was, so he followed her out of curiosity to see if anything would actually happen.
As it turned out, the Onmyoji’s arts of stargazing and physiognomy had some real substance to them.
Noticing the soft little hand he was holding was trembling, he kissed Kei’s forehead soothingly.
“Still scared?”
“A little.”
Kei gave a soft hum, her head lowered, her expression hidden.
“Makoto.”
“Say what you want to say.”
“I…”
She sounded dejected.
“Am I…
especially useless?
Those bastards bullied me like that, and I didn’t even dare fight back.
If it weren’t for Little Ai today, I would have been beaten up again.”
Makoto pondered.
He didn’t think so at all.
The little girlfriend he had taken in provided him with immense satisfaction, both in terms of physical pleasure and emotional value.
One could say she was quite useful.
But he couldn’t say that directly.
Seeing the little blonde growing more and more dejected, he suddenly smiled.
“Who says you’re useless?
Didn’t you curse them out until they were hopping mad?
Speaking of which, I didn’t know you could be so foul-mouthed, you little thing.”
Kei touched her own cheek, somewhat embarrassed.
Hayasaka Ai, beside them, sighed and suddenly spoke up.
“Master, were you already present when we started arguing with them?
That doesn’t sound like the ‘coincidence’ you mentioned.”
Makoto nodded.
“It’s probably a couple’s psychic radar.
That’s why I rushed over immediately when Kei was in danger.”
Psychic radar?
Or some other kind of superpower?
Hayasaka Ai silently speculated in her heart.
By now, although she hadn’t fully rebuilt her shattered worldview, she had figured out why the Shinomiya Family, and even that lofty Shinomiya Family head, were so deferential to her master.
Before, she had suspected her master was a hidden young master from some major family.
Now, carefully recalling Shinomiya Ganan’s tone and cautious attitude back then, it might not have been mere courtesy.
It was more like fearful reverence, granting whatever was asked.
Having realized this, Hayasaka Ai, who had no other intentions to begin with, now dared not even think of having any.
As for Kei, she didn’t have such complicated thoughts.
She only felt something warm spreading in her chest, like sweet syrup filling every corner of her heart.
The mist in her eyes was thick and sticky, her gaze towards him practically pulling threads.
“Love radar?
Hehe…”
It was very heated.
But also sweet.
The girl was overjoyed.
Fueled by this happiness, she didn’t continue shopping or have lunch outside.
Instead, she pulled Makoto back home and, in high spirits, cooked a grand meal together with Hayasaka Ai.
After lunch, contrary to her usual habit, she didn’t go for a nap.
Instead, she nestled in her boyfriend’s arms, teasing and stirring his interest.
Makoto, who had been teamed up with An and Subaru, wreaking havoc in a game, immediately shut down the computer, carried the two blondes into the bedroom, tore off their clothes, and initiated a new round of intense, chaotic ‘wreaking havoc’.
He was responsible for the ‘wreaking havoc’, they were responsible for the intense part.
…
“I’m going to take a shower first.”
Today’s Kei was unusually energetic.
Having soared beyond the clouds several times, she still had the strength to go to the bathroom herself, even humming a little tune.
“Is she that happy?”
Makoto couldn’t help but smile and shake his head.
“Master, you don’t understand a girl’s heart.
Girls really care about things like a sense of security.”
In his arms, Hayasaka Ai, like a mermaid out of water, was diligently licking and kissing the sweat on his neck and collarbone.
It was clear she was very thirsty now.
If Shinomiya Kaguya saw Hayasaka Ai’s current state, it would be enough to drive that person, who was more innocent than an elementary school student, into a state of mental confusion.
Maybe it’s not a big deal now… maybe it will be later.
“And If you’re enjoying it, drop a Power Stone for me!”
