Zongman I fight weirdness in everyday world

"Hey, you, why did you buy so many candy apples?"

"Hey, isn't it because there are a lot of people?"

"Hmph, you know there are a lot of people? I thought you didn't know."

"Senior Mai, you're being a bit too aggressive today."

"Tch, you only call me 'Senior' when you're deliberately trying to trick me."

"That's not important."

Ye Xing directly steered away from the topic, looked at the Overload Club members sitting there, waved his hand and smiled.

"Come and grab one."

As the natural enemy of chaotic scenes and the destroyer of factional disputes, Ye Xing once again made a wise choice.

Either don't buy any, or buy them all.

And there's one crucial detail.

He's not taking them out and handing them to everyone; instead, he's letting each person come and take one themselves.

If he were to hand them out himself, he'd have to prioritize the order, which could easily lead to problems.

This is the detail of the harem god!

While the girls were still hesitating, the war goddess Touma Kazusa was the first to stand up, walk over, and take a candy apple.

But immediately after, she did something that surprised everyone.

"Here."

Touma Kazusa held up the bright red candy apple, leaned close to Ye Xing's lips, and said softly.

"Take a bite."

"Okay."

Ye Xing didn't hesitate much; he just smiled and took a bite of Touma Kazusa's candy apple, and the latter also took a bite from the same spot without any reservation.

If it were just that, it wouldn't be a big deal.

The key is that Touma Kazusa has already done this…

How could Ryou Futaba and the others, who have already confirmed their relationship, not do the same?

"Take a bite."

"I want you to take a bite of mine too."

"Mine too."

…

The people around were dumbfounded, especially the men, whose gazes towards Ye Xing already revealed sincere admiration, even awe.

No, buddy.

You're too awesome, aren't you!?

You've bitten eight candy apples already?

Let's not even talk about whether your cheeks are sore.

You're simultaneously dating eight girls and brought them all to watch the fireworks show?

In this situation, all the men had that evaluation in their hearts, the supreme evaluation that they would never easily say out loud.

I admit you're amazing.

Chapter 252: The Starting Point of the Fool's Journey, Anjou Naruko Becomes a Target of Evil Spirits

Looking at the members walking over one by one, each taking a candy apple and chatting happily, Yukino Yukinoshita couldn't help but feel a little tempted.

Should I… eat one too?

But just as Yukino Yukinoshita was thinking this, she suddenly heard Haruno say.

"Oh dear, I bought one too few. I remember counting everyone…"

Haruno glanced around the group, her gaze resting on Yukino's face, putting on an apologetic smile, and sticking out her tongue.

"Sorry, Yukinon, I forgot to buy one for you."

"It doesn't matter."

Yukino Yukinoshita sat on the chair, tucked a strand of black hair behind her ear, and said in a calm tone as she looked at Haruno walking up to her.

"I didn't want to eat one anyway."

Haruno held a candy apple in her hand, looked at the gap left on it by Ye Xing's bite, and licked it lightly like a cat, saying meaningfully.

"Everyone else is eating, but you're not. Can you really accept that?"

Yukino Yukinoshita lowered her eyes, originally wanting to remain silent, but for some reason, she said something that she hadn't even thought about.

"Even if I wanted to eat… there's none to eat. But I stopped being affected by such things a long time ago."

"Don't worry about so much. Just eat if you want to."

At the same time as Haruno Yukinoshita finished speaking, Ye Xing took out another candy apple from who knows where, handed it to Yukino Yukinoshita, and smiled as if to echo Haruno's words.

"Here, Bugnoshita, have some candy."

"You're the bug, Bug Xing!"

Yukino Yukinoshita retorted unhappily, but looking at the bright red candy apple in Ye Xing's hand, she hesitated slightly, but finally reached out and took it, saying in a voice as soft as a mosquito's hum.

"Th… thank you."

"Yeah, you're welcome."

Haruno sat down next to Yukino Yukinoshita, propped her chin with one hand, and said with a smile.

"That's great, Yukinon. I remember you like sweets the most, and this candy apple is…"

"Is what?"

"It's nothing. You'll understand in the future."

…

Brilliant fireworks bloomed in the night sky.

"Wow, it's so beautiful…"

Yui Yuigahama's eyes sparkled with bright light, her eyes reflecting the colors of the fireworks.

"Next year… next year, let's all watch the fireworks together again."

"Next year, huh…"

Ryou Futaba, sitting next to her, pushed up her glasses and said with a complicated expression.

"I wonder what the club will be like next year… Will we still be able to gather together then?"

Yui Yuigahama pouted and said coquettishly.

"Don't say such pessimistic things. We'll definitely be able to gather together."

"Yeah."

Mai Sakurajima nodded, looked at Ye Xing, who was not far away sitting with Shizuka Hiratsuka and Natsumi Suga, these two mature older sisters, watching the fireworks, and sighed slightly, looking a little helpless.

"With that guy around, the number of members will only increase, not decrease. I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing."

…

The pleasant fireworks festival ended peacefully.

The next evening, in the shopping street.

"Hey, you two old fogeys, I'm here!"

Hearing this familiar address and this familiar voice, Oda Notou and Grandma the Godmother, who were sitting behind the counter, sighed at the same time.

The two of them looked up and were a little puzzled to see that only Ye Xing had come today.

"Why are you the only one here? Where are the girls?"

"Oh, them."

Ye Xing explained casually.

"They experienced an unusually fierce battle last night, and their stamina has been overdrawn. They're probably still lying in bed, feeling sore all over, unable to get out of bed."

Oda Notou frowned, thinking that this battle you're talking about isn't anything proper, is it?

But…

Taking on several at once?

Oda Notou winked at Ye Xing, lowered his voice, and said.

"You kid, you're quite capable. It's good to be young, back in my day…"

"Don't even think about back in your day."

Grandma the Godmother rolled her eyes and interrupted Oda Notou's words.

"You're almost six feet under, so don't brag here…"

Just as Grandma the Godmother was halfway through her sentence, she seemed to sense something, her pupils shrank slightly, and she looked at Ye Xing standing there, as if confirming her senses. The more she looked, the more shocked she became.

"You… your spiritual power…"

Grandma the Godmother said with an expression of disbelief, murmuring.

"You actually… really killed a god?"

Ye Xing shrugged and smiled.

"Of course. Did you think I was just bragging to you?"

Grandma the Godmother and Oda Notou exchanged glances, both speechless.

The two of them are exorcists, not shrine maidens or messengers of gods, so they don't feel anything about the gods themselves.

But a powerful being that has existed for hundreds of years and can affect the weather of the entire Sakura Prefecture was actually killed…

The two of them found it hard to imagine what kind of power and what kind of determination Ye Xing used to accomplish such a thing.

"So… you came here today… to…?"

"I have something to ask of you. The big mountain on the outskirts of Kyoto City, I hope you can inquire within your circles to see if there are any noteworthy rumors."

"No problem."

Grandma the Godmother first responded with this sentence, then looked directly into Ye Xing's eyes, and once again took out that stack of tarot cards from the counter.

"Could you let this old woman divine for you one more time? I can feel that the trajectory of your destiny has become much clearer. Perhaps this time, I can successfully divine it."

"Divination? That's no problem."

Ye Xing sat down at the counter and said with a smile.

"Then let's begin."

"Mm…"

Grandma the Godmother took a deep breath and spread the stack of tarot cards in her hand into a fan shape on the table.

"Draw a card. Just one card is enough."

Under her nervous gaze, Ye Xing randomly drew a tarot card.

Grandma the Godmother mobilized all of her spiritual power, and even in Ye Xing and Oda Notou's vision, they could see the faint white spiritual light emanating from her body.

"The result of the divination…"

Grandma the Godmother's hand rested on the tarot card, and just as she was halfway through turning it over, before she could clearly see the card, Ye Xing on the opposite side seemed to have known the result for a long time and whispered two words.
