Hana Sanli watched as Qiqi closed the door, recalling her earlier conversation with Mr. Xia.
I couldn't help but feel grateful. It's so wonderful to have a master who pampers you like a child.
--
Qiqi entered the room and naturally lay down on the small bed.
Although her figure has grown considerably compared to before, she is still considered a young girl.
Wearing the newly bought yukata, she has a kind of budding beauty.
"Master, there's something I need to tell you."
"what's up?"
"I told Hanahara about the magical girl thing."
"It's alright. Since you two are living together, she'll find out about this sooner or later."
"She seems to want to become a magical girl too."
"Really? I didn't see her mention it to me just now."
"She must still be hesitating. She said she needs to think about it."
"Okay, let's wait until she comes to her senses before we talk about it."
"it is good."
How has your cultivation been lately?
"We didn't encounter any problems."
"Yes, you can talk to Hana Sanri more often; it'll be good for both of you."
"I understand, Master."
Qiqi opened her eyes and looked at the master who was massaging her.
This is the happiest moment of her day.

After giving all the girls massages and showers, Xia Zhi returned to her room.
He opened the blessing panel and saw that there were now two new blessings: [Blessing of the Fox Demon] and [Blessing of the Tanuki Demon].
This is the new blessing he received from Yae no Miko and Rii during his interactions with them over the past two days.
In return, he also gained two new transformation abilities: [Fox Demon] and [Tanuki Demon].
Xia Zhi tried it out. The transformation of the [Tanuki Demon] was nothing special, except that it became more agile. The [Fox Demon], on the other hand, gained an ability to charm, but unfortunately, neither of them had a tail.
[Charm]: Arouse the target's desire and make them infatuated with you. The charm effect is increased by 100% for targets of the opposite sex and by 50% for targets of demons.
Xia Zhi pondered, "Gan Yu seems to perfectly fulfill both the conditions of being of the opposite sex and being a demon..."
I went next door and tried out the skill.
The aroma of coconut milk in the room suddenly became incredibly strong.
Then there is no more then.
To be honest, even though Gan Yu isn't an Inatsume, wearing a yukata is still a wonderful experience.
Chapter 555 The Shadow's Terrifying Culinary Skills (4K)
Castle tower.
Xia Zhen sat at the table, flipping through various files and intelligence.
Suddenly, Ying pushed the door open and entered.
"elder sister."
Xia Zhen looked up and saw her younger sister holding a covered clay pot in both hands.
"This is……"
"I made sukiyaki for my sister. She must be hungry after working so long!"
"..."
Xia Zhen fell silent immediately.
The shadows are still the same as before.
She was not good at handling government affairs, and when she saw herself working alone at her desk, she wanted to help, so she thought of cooking for herself.
At that time, Ying would suddenly appear before my eyes, holding a dish she had just learned to cook.
However, Shadow's culinary talent isn't great, and her sense of taste doesn't seem to be very good either...
Recalling the past, a complex smile appeared on Xia Zhen's face.
"Thank you for your hard work, Ying. Let's put it aside for now."
"Sister, you should eat it while it's hot, it won't taste good when it gets cold."
"……All right."
After all, this was Ying's heartfelt gift, and it was also the first dish Ying had made since their reunion.
As the older sister, there was no way I could refuse.
Xia Zhen put down the documents in her hand and calmly took the casserole from Ying's hand.
It's okay, relax.
I've forced myself to eat quite a few of the dishes Ying used to make, so I've developed some resistance to them...
Thinking this, Xia Zhen lifted the lid of the casserole with her hand.
A strange, red and green, gel-like substance came into her view, plunging her into silence once again.
Wait a minute... what the hell is this thing?
"Ying, you just said this is sukiyaki?"
"Yes."
"Is Inazuma's current method of making sukiyaki different from what we used to do?"
"No? I don't know. I used the method that Fox Palace taught me before."
"Then why does it look like this?"
“I also added some slime to it.”
Why did you suddenly think of adding that?
Xia Zhen paused, suddenly recalling her conversation with Shenzi at the restaurant at noon.
"Wait, did the little fox tell you that?"
"Ah."
"..."
Xia Zhen was still holding the lid of the clay pot in her hand, which was radiating a scalding heat, but it couldn't warm her cold heart.
"Sister, please try it."
"Shadow...did you taste it yourself?"
I tried a piece.
"how do you feel?"
"is acceptable."
Looking at Ying with such expectant eyes, Xia Zhen sighed inwardly, but still smiled. She picked up her chopsticks, took a small piece from the casserole, and slowly put it in her mouth.
Although the addition of slime makes the final dish look strange, it doesn't change the original flavor of the dish because slime is colorless and odorless; it only affects the texture.
What you taste on your tongue is a familiar yet strange flavor.
Some long-dead memories began to attack her again.
Sigh, five hundred years have passed, and Shadow's cooking skills are still so terrible...
She used to be able to accept her sister's good intentions without batting an eye, and then praise her cooking as delicious even though she didn't have a clear conscience.
However, now that she has eaten too much of Xia Zhi's cooking, her taste threshold has been raised too high, and she really can no longer do such a thing.
After all, the whole body is resisting eating...
Xia Zhen swallowed the small, unpalatable piece of food in her mouth, pondering how to gracefully escape this predicament.
Ying looked up at her and couldn't help but ask, "What do you think, sister?"
Xia Zhen nodded and replied with a smile, "It tastes exactly the same as the sukiyaki you used to make."
Ying's eyes lit up and she said, "If you like it, eat more, and I'll cook you another serving tomorrow."
"tomorrow……"
