"If you continue to drink, your body will feel uncomfortable."

The cherry-haired girl gently supported her drunk adoptive mother, her soft and charming face was flushed, and her amethyst-like eyes were slightly drunk.

She leaned over and kissed the girl's lips lightly, laughing at the girl's slightly embarrassed expression: "It's okay~ Anyway, Qi is here, isn't it?"

"You mean to take advantage of the opportunity to drink with the tengu to do this kind of thing..."

Looking forward to the non-people who were already staggering on the other side, he sighed slightly in his heart.

"This is Narugami Taisha Shrine anyway, drinking here will provoke Narugami-sama's anger."

Yae Kamiko got closer again, and gently hugged the girl's shoulders. The strong smell of alcohol made the girl feel uncomfortable.

"Don't worry, it's just a drink, she won't be angry, and... this is to take care of them, the inhuman blood in Dao's wife's land has gradually weakened, let them have a good night, anyway. The night of the New Year's Eve."

"Do you want a drink too?"

The girl looked at the glass of clear wine and shook her head slightly.

"No, I... I'll send Mitsuyo back first."

She gently broke free from the hand of the sakura-haired priestess, and turned to face a pretty tengu. Looking at Mitsuyo, who also had two blushes and blurred eyes, she let her lean on her shoulder, and then stood up.

"Hurry up, don't make me wait too long~"

Only Yae Kamiko watched her leave with rather complicated eyes, but also covered her mouth and yawned, and walked towards the girl's room.

Praying to the wobbly Tengu-san, she looked completely drunk, occasionally hiccupped, and said some martial arts concepts that girls didn't quite understand.

Miss Miko met on the side of the road would also greet her with a gentle smile and call her stepson-sama.

The girls will also respond one by one, and occasionally some more enthusiastic witches will ask if they need help, and say that they always have nightmares at night, and hope that she can go to the dormitory to help.

But he was also declined politely. Fortunately, this time, with Miss Mitsuyo as a cover, at least he wouldn't be pestered for a long time.

Soon, he walked to the foot of Yingxiang Mountain, and happened to see Mr. Yanzang preparing his supper, a bird egg, two sunset fruits, and a piece of animal meat.

"Hey, it's Mr. stepson, teacher, this is..."

"Drunk at the dinner party, I will send her back."

The young girl's expression was relatively dull, her voice was like an orchid, and her pretty face and cherry-like hair made her look like a small Yae Gongji.

The Yae Palace Secretary actually knew Yanzang, but he was very overwhelmed, he felt as if everything in his mind seemed to be seen through, and he was too embarrassed to tease him with a few words.

But this stepson is different, people want to know how slender thoughts are behind that weak appearance, although he has never met her, but when he first saw her, it was the other party who took care of his injured self and cooked a meal for him .

Later, when I saw her going down the mountain, I could see Mr. Mitsudai greeting her, as if they were friendly, and would send him some supplies on a regular basis.

She is a very gentle girl. Logically speaking, such a girl will give people some charming thoughts, but Iwazo always feels that the other party is far away, like an empty shadow.

"So it's like this, just send it here, I'll let the tengus pick up the teacher and go back, it's already very late at night, you should go back to Narujin Taisha as soon as possible."

The girl looked at him with her flawless eyes, thought for a while, and then nodded in agreement.

"It's work."

"Your stepson, you are welcome."

"As a thank you, let me prepare a supper for you. It just so happens that you are going to find Tengu. It's not good to delay back and forth."

"That's... that's fine, I'll look forward to your cooking."

Yan Zang did not persuade, but quickly turned around and ran away. That girl's character is like this, she will find a way to return after receiving help, and because of this, the sense of alienation in the distance must also come from this.

After helping to cook the supper, Iwazo came back soon, and brought a few tengus with him. They skillfully supported Mitsuyo and bowed to her, and left soon.

Qi was not too polite, and quickly said goodbye and left. After all, there was an angry "childish ghost" at home who needed her to coax.

Returning to Narujin Taisha Shrine and entering my bedroom, as expected, the quilt was slightly arched like a hill.

"Pray—so slow—"

Hearing that the door was opened, the quilt was pulled, revealing a pair of furry ears, followed by Yae's mother with a sleepy face. She looked like she had changed and was hiding under the quilt at the moment, showing her smooth pink shoulders.

"It's time to sleep."

The girl's eyelids lowered slightly, and she obeyed her wishes, quickly took off her clothes, and got under the quilt wearing only thin white underwear.

It was very warm in the bed, and at the same time, a pair of white and delicate hands fumbled to hug her, even sticking her body.

Unlike in the castle tower where she couldn't feel the warmth of human affection, her adoptive mother was closer to her than her creator, and she would also bluntly express, I like your thoughts.

Qi leaned on her shoulder, slowly closed his eyes, and could feel each other's presence through the delicate skin on his cheeks, which was very reassuring.

Gradually, the sound of even and slow breathing came, and the cherry-haired Miss Shenzi just lovingly caressed the girl's soft hair, and then fell asleep together.

——The girl is praying——

When he woke up, the warmth disappeared. Qi opened his eyes in a daze, then closed them again, opened them again, and got up from the bed after confirming that he hadn't woken up.

What a surprise, my mother also got up early.

It's just... she blinked again, the surrounding scene seemed to fade away, and only the purple objects showed their presence in this gray world.

She dressed her stepson, combed her hair, and put on a purple scrunchie.

Looking at himself in the mirror with colored eyes and hair rope, he sighed.

It must be a prank done by the adoptive mother, the purpose is not clear, but...she is a little complicated about this color.

In the past, her hair was actually the same color as the night, but when she left the castle tower, she cut off a strand and put it in the tall pavilion where she lived for nearly a year, and then left with her adoptive mother, and also asked her Her hair was dyed the same color as hers.

According to what the adoptive mother said, after touching the fox tree, it suddenly turned into a cherry-like color.

It also looks very good-looking, and it can be regarded as a decision on the past.

Walking out of the house, not surprisingly, the color of the pupils did not change back, and some witches could be seen arguing about what kind of mushrooms to sober up faster.

"So it's really okay to eat such a brightly colored mushroom?!"

"That's the color you want! It's going to work great!"

She remembered the two miko girls, one was Shikano and the other was Kurihara, they were colorless as expected.

After all, most of the witch clothes are mainly white and red.

Greeted them, and then started the day's work. In the morning, I helped prepare the props for the exorcism ceremony, cleaned the library at noon, carefully checked the books that might be moth-eaten or damp, and then went to the club to pick them up in the afternoon. New picking tools.

There was a girl she was very uncomfortable with, named Kamisato Suzuki.

Looking at her eyes, there is always a feeling that she wants to eat her, so after several tests, she will try to choose to go there at [-]:[-] pm, and she is usually practicing Kagura at this time.

So she can easily grab her stuff and leave without getting caught and getting into a rather awkward conversation.

Put the picking tool into the bag and carry it on the back. Just as the girl was about to leave, there was another shadow of a boudoir lady at the door. She was still panting, and she seemed to be running all the way.

It's blocked...Because sorting out the picking tools needs to be carefully divided into their respective types, and when they were purchased and placed here, they were not well sorted and put away, which caused her to spend some time sorting out, and the result was It's blocked.

I really envy those who have the eyes of God, it is quite a good thing to have a space for convenient storage of items with you.

"Huh-huh-Ji, Miss Stepzi, would you like a cup of tea?"

Kamisato Suzuru looked a little better, and after saluting gracefully, she suggested.

"Thank you for the invitation, but Narujin Taisha still has matters to deal with, please forgive me for leaving first."

Sure enough, after saying goodbye, the other party's expression lost a lot, but... today she was wearing a purple bow tie, so she passed by.

Qi softly praised the beautiful bow she wore today, which cheered her up a bit. It should not be said that she was completely revived. It is really an elusive girl's mind.

Leaving Kamiyashiki, I happened to meet Ms. Mitsuyo on the way home.

The opponent's crow feathers are quite gorgeous in the gray field of vision, and it seems that he has been waiting for a long time.

"Mitsuyo, is your hangover better?"

Qi asked first.

"It's much better! Thank you for sending me back yesterday. Well, I have nothing to send my stepson, so that... please accept this!"

She handed over a pair of beautiful Wind Wings. The supple purple feathers were gorgeous in color and had an excellent touch. The girl rarely showed a smile and thanked her.

Perhaps because she had never seen a girl's smile before, Ms. Mitsuyo waved her hands in a panic, and then ran away with the excuse that Iwazura still needs to be trained.

In the end, just as the girl was about to leave, she chased her out again, looking a little shy, and shouted: "If the Wing of Wind is broken, you can ask me to fix it! It doesn't matter how many times!"

What a kindhearted lady Tengu.

After Qi nodded, she also bid farewell to her and continued on the way back. The bright red torii gates in the past were colorless at the moment, and even the beautiful scenery before felt a little boring, but it was normal.

No matter who it is, facing such a gray vision, it is normal to feel bored.

Back at Narujin Taisha Shrine, Yae Miko was leaning on the torii gate, her eyes were very beautiful, gorgeous purple.

"Please restore me to my original form."

"I've been thinking about mom all day, so please~"

The priestess with the eyes of the fox said with such a charming smile.

"If you say that, I can help you recover right now."

"...No, and why would Mommy do that?"

"Hmph~ Of course it's punishment Qi for not agreeing to me last night, and today I went out to collect honey, and I had a hot fight with this and that."

The mature priestess came closer, gently pinching the adoptive daughter's chin, as if the tip of her nose was about to touch it.

"Qi, do you still remember what you said when you came out?"

"Mom should know, my thoughts..."

"So, can you tell me again?"

"I like mom."

The girl gently patted away her adoptive mother's hand that continued to make trouble, then turned her head and said.

"What about Miss Mitsuyo?"

"like."

"Where's Ms. Suzuraki from the Kamisato family?"

"I also like..."

"Where are the shrine maidens?"

"like it all..."

"Everyone likes no one."

On the girl's retinas, there was a large expanse of purple spreading across the sky.

"I want to be that special person for Qi, just like the one in your heart, or...Does Qi hate me?"

"it's OK..."

"But you hate her, don't you?"

"Yes..."

"What kind of like do you like about me?"

Looking at the sky that was dyed red and purple by dusk, Yae Kamito asked softly.

"Trust, longing, etc.? Or kindness, longing, interest, respect, admiration?"

"Or, just like my love for you."

"..."

The girl's expression darkened.

"Mom is worried about me leaving, no, I like to be alone with my mother."

She touched her lips lightly, soft and warm.

"There is also kissing. I also like the feeling of skin-to-skin contact. When I wake up in the morning and see my mother's sleeping face, I feel very at ease."

"However, it's not that I see my mother as her replacement. You are... very important to me. You... are beautiful and a color that cannot be described in words."

Qi turned around and looked at the slightly surprised Yae Miko.

The wind blew their long hair, and colorless cherry petals fell on their bodies. The girl took her hand and said softly: "I really like the color of my mother's eyes, and I also like the tone of my mother when she teased me. You I like everything about it."

"So, transform me back and let me see my mother's color again."

As soon as the words were finished, the other party hugged her tightly, hugging her tightly as if it was almost breathless, not wanting to let her escape.

"Okay, okay, Qi won today."

She buried her cheek next to her daughter's white neck, preventing her from seeing her current expression.

"However, close your eyes first, and when Qi opens them next time, everything will be back to normal."

"But let me hold you for a while."

On the other side that Qi Suo didn't see, Miss Yae smiled with nostalgia and satisfaction.

If you let go now, there will be no dignity left when you are seen blushing.

So, let her have a little more monopoly, this wish-like color.
