Two weeks had passed since the Spacequake caused by Tohka in Tengu City.
During these two weeks, to help Tohka integrate better, I would take her out on dates and to play on weekends.
However, my preferential treatnt of Tohka had caused Nia to sigh in exasperation and complain repeatedly.
Not only had her phone been confiscated, but her status in the household had also dropped. It was utterly unfair.
———
After two weeks of human life, Tohka had fallen in love with her current life. Coupled with her naturally airheaded and adorable personality, she was very likable.
Therefore, she also made many friends at school.
However, as Tohka's nesis in the original story, Origami Tobiichi naturally couldn't coexist peacefully with Tohka.
Daily bickering and argunts were inevitable. Unsurprisingly, every argunt ended with Tohka's miserable defeat.
I had thought Tohka's intelligence had improved, but it seems she's still the sa adorable airhead.
Fortunately, Origami and Tohka only bickered and didn't resort to any excessive actions. Otherwise, I'd have a real headache.
———
Coming out of the supermarket, I looked up. The sky was already covered with dark clouds, and a continuous drizzle was falling.
Holding a conjured umbrella, I strolled through the drizzling rain.
I liked rainy weather; it brought an inexplicable sense of comfort.
As I passed a crossroads, I slowed my steps, my gaze stopping before a certain building.
It was a shrine that seed to have so history. However, I naturally wouldn't stop just for a shrine.
It was because... inside the shrine, there was a little Loli who had particularly caught my attention!
She wore a large green cloak adorned with rabbit ears, the hood completely covering her head. Long blue hair cascaded down from both sides of her shoulders.
The blue-haired girl, as beautiful as a French doll, had a dreamlike appearance and a petite figure, looking close in age to Kotori Itsuka.
She also wore a comical-looking rabbit hand puppet on her left hand.
At this mont, she was happily hopping around in the rain by herself, splashing in puddles.
"I've finally found you—the number one Moe character among the Spirits of this world, the Fourth Spirit, Hermit—Yoshino!" I revealed a gratified smile.
———
Suddenly, another familiar Spirit aura appeared nearby. With a thought, I imdiately knew the identity of the Spirit in the shadows.
'It's Kurumi!'
Last ti, when I was conquering Tohka, I had sensed a Spirit nearby but didn't pay much attention at the ti.
Now it seed, every ti a Spirit descended, she would rush to the vicinity imdiately.
'Looks like she's after Nia.'
'No! More accurately, she's after Nia's Angel, [Rasiel].'
In just a few seconds, Kurumi's aura vanished, and she left.
I quietly watched Yoshino happily splashing in the rain inside the shrine.
Every ti Yoshino's face revealed that sweet smile, I couldn't help but reveal a healed smile myself.
———
"Splat!"
The next mont, Yoshino's small foot slipped, and she was about to fall face-first onto the ground.
Simultaneously, the rabbit hand puppet on her left hand also ca off due to inertia and flew forward.
Seeing this accident, my expression changed slightly. I flashed to her side, gently embracing Yoshino and catching the puppet—Yoshinon.
"Yoshino, are you alright?"
Hearing my words, Yoshino was first stunned.
Upon seeing holding her, she frantically struggled out of my embrace like a frightened animal and quickly pulled away.
Imdiately, I realized that when Yoshino first appeared, she was timid and shy, almost afraid to speak directly to people.
"...Please... please don't... please don't co near ..." Yoshino's expression was extrely timid as she continued to retreat, her voice trembling as she pleaded.
"...Please... don't hurt ..."
Seeing Yoshino trembling slightly out of fear, I knew this was likely due to the constant attacks from the AST.
'Looks like Yoshino has been hurt quite a bit before.'
Thinking of this, I slowly walked towards Yoshino.
Seeing this, Yoshino, out of fear, could only retreat continuously until she had no more room to retreat, bumping into the shrine's wall.
And watching approach step by step, Yoshino closed her eyes in despair and terror.
But the pain from her past didn't appear as she imagined. Instead, she felt a familiar sensation in her hand.
Then, a warm, large hand gently patted her head through her hood.
The incessant rain also stopped at this mont. The dark clouds dispersed, and a ray of sunset appeared.
"Yoshino, don't be afraid. No one here will hurt you."
Hearing my gentle words, Yoshino cautiously opened one eye, then slowly opened both bright, large eyes.
This big brother, although a stranger, was different from other humans. She didn't feel any dislike towards him.
Moreover, the feeling of being patted on the head by him was comfortable.
———
Just as Yoshino was curiously observing , the rabbit hand puppet on her hand suddenly started talking.
"Oh my! I just woke up and saw Yoshino being patted on the head by a lecherous big brother!"
Yoshino's small face turned beet red as she shook her right hand.
"Wuu~ Yoshinon..."
Hearing Yoshinon's cheeky voice, my face darkened. "Yoshinon, explain yourself. How did I beco a 'lecherous big brother'?"
Yoshinon opened its mouth wide, letting out a smug laugh. "Taking advantage of Yoshino's and my mont of vulnerability when we were saved! But you did save Yoshino and , so let's consider this a spe~cial~ re~ward~ for you!"
Kyoya: "..."
As soon as the words fell, my mouth twitched uncontrollably, looking at the comical rabbit hand puppet Yoshinon with a strange expression.
"In any case, thank you!" Yoshinon opened its mouth, waved at , making a farewell gesture. "Bye-bye~ Lecherous big brother!"
Imdiately, Yoshino also bowed, her voice soft and sweet. "Th-Thank you for saving Yoshinon..."
Yoshinon: "Yo~ Could it be that Yoshino has fallen for this lecherous big brother?"
"Y-Y... Yoshinon!" Yoshino's small face flushed crimson, and she shyly called out the rabbit hand puppet's na.
Then, her figure transford into specks of light and disappeared.
