……
In the evening, the sky was dyed crimson.
Inside the thatched hut, Kikyo sat obediently at the table and looked towards the kitchen with expectant eyes. It was a rare day for Mitsu to cook personally. After all, the shrine maiden sister had been busy with various things recently, going to Hikawa Shrine to study all day, and she seldom had the opportunity to cook as usual.
Although my mother’s cooking skills are excellent, they are still not as mature as those of my sister, the shrine maiden.
The sound of the burning fire gradually subsided, and Yunhe walked out of the kitchen quickly, holding a plate of food that was the same color as the clouds outside the house and as bright as flames. He placed it in front of Platycodon happily.
“…Mmm~ It smells so good!”
The fragrance of spices combined with the fresh aroma of tofu and the fresh appearance are even more impactful, instantly overwhelming Platycodon's sense of smell and vision.
However, what Kikyo did not notice was that when this dish was served, the young foxes that were originally surrounding her suddenly fled in all directions. With the canines' keen sense of smell and sixth sense of life and death crisis, they smelled and felt the murderous intent hidden under the gorgeous appearance.
Picking up the spoon, the unsuspecting Kikyo couldn't wait to scoop up a spoonful and stuff it into her mouth. The unimaginable taste burst on her tongue.
At that moment, it seemed as if my taste buds were destroyed.
Ten seconds, twenty seconds, one minute, three minutes, Kikyo still didn't move, still holding the spoon, and finally looked at Yunhe, tears as big as beans rolled down, and then she couldn't stop crying and said: "What the hell is it?"
This sentence only has five words, but it cleverly avoids all the phonetic symbols. You can see how powerful it is.
"Mapo tofu is one of the specialties of Central Plains, but at Yunhe's request, I made a super spicy version."
At the same time, Yu Zhuanjin walked out of the kitchen, explained, and pushed the pot to Yunhe.
"Oh, shit, I think I went too far."
Seeing Kikyo's reaction, Yunhe realized that he had gone too far. He didn't expect that Yuzhongjin's ultimate dish would be so powerful.
"I hate my mother the most!"
Upon hearing this, Kikyo immediately crossed her arms, turned around, and decided not to pay any more attention to Yunhe.
"Little Kikyo, please forgive your mother this time. How about I make you your favorite Sasa cake later?"
Seeing this, Yun He hurriedly coaxed.
However, the effect was not good. Although Kikyo's tongue tip was still numb, she struggled in her heart, but she made up her mind. Finally, Yunhe simply took the spoon that Kikyo had just used, scooped a spoonful of super spicy Mapo tofu and stuffed it into her mouth, and her face immediately turned slightly red.
The hand holding the spoon could not help but tremble slightly. Yun He turned to look at Yu Zhuan Jin and said, "What does it look like?"
Same pronunciation, same reaction.
"So didn't I say it once just now?" Why did two people die together in the end?
Holding his forehead with his hand, Yuzhuanjin sighed leisurely.
……
PS: The first order results were about the same as expected, a bit disappointing, but not too disappointing. According to expectations, I should have updated the book frequently, but...

So please forgive me. I will start with 20,000 words per day for this writing activity. The main reason is that I need to earn some extra money to support my livelihood by subscribing to Taipu.
In the next few days, I will maintain a stable update of 4,000 words per day. I hope you can bear with me. I am very...
I beg you, I hope you readers can forgive me!

……
After a while of nonsense, Yunhe's self-inflicted embarrassment made Kikyo burst into laughter, and the matter was finally settled.
But dinner, of course, needs to be redone.
Fortunately, Yuzhuanjin had anticipated this and prepared the ingredients in advance, so all that was needed was a little processing.
However, if you think about it carefully, this kind of food that almost wipes out your taste buds with just one bite can never be considered a full meal.
"Sorry for the wait! Although the Osaka takoyaki is a little bit flawed due to the lack of cooking utensils, please don't mind."
This is another dish from the later times, octopus balls. Unfortunately, there are no molds, so Yuzhongjin has to be kneaded by hand, and it has to be grilled over fire continuously. Fortunately, the vengeful flame soul of the fire demon is there to help.
Seeing that Kikyo still looked timid, Yuzhongjin couldn't help but add with a smile: "Please don't worry, this is normal this time."
After saying that, he picked up a piece with chopsticks and put it into his mouth, and by the way, shared it equally with the four little foxes squatting under the table. The little foxes who got the food rushed forward one after another.
As for the Mapo Tofu at the beginning, in line with the principle of never wasting food, Yuzhong Jin gave it to the Vengeful Flame Soul, feeling that the latter should be able to handle it.
The Flame Soul of Vengeance picked up the plate and poured it all into his mouth. After brewing for a moment, he couldn't help but spit out a fierce fire. Although his expression was simple, it could be seen that he was particularly satisfied.
"This dish is really not meant for human consumption."
Seeing this, Kikyo said more affirmatively.
"Hmm~"
After all, an excessive amount of spices was used, and even if it was diluted several times, it was still not something that ordinary people could bear. This one meal reduced the stock of Yuzhuanjin by 70%. Although it could be replenished by asking Lulu and Shoushou, who were idle on weekdays, to search for it, it was still a serious consumption. Eh~ why didn't you use this reason to stop Yunhe at that time?
Not long after, Yuzhongjin looked at the Vengeful Flame Soul again. The other party was the first demon spirit under her command. Although she had only used two shikigami cards so far, the other one was Tsubaki's "Ugly Hour Girl".
The level has reached the N level cap for a long time.
It's a pity that it cannot be promoted due to its poor quality, and the main reason is that Yuzhong Jin has not received any extra N-level Shikigami cards to use as materials recently.
I feel that N cards are harder to obtain than R cards.
It was not until today that I got the third N-level Shikigami card. In addition to the "parasitic soul" of the Vengeance Flame Soul itself, there are "Amashaki Blue" and "Amashaki Red".
Not advanced enough at all.
However, there is a simpler and easier way to obtain the fourth N-level Shikigami card.
A quest to raise the skill "Spell" to level 3.
……
So, the next morning, Miozu set off for Hikawa Shrine, ready to complete this task as a priority.
When passing by the main shrine, the priest Qinghe happened to walk out of the shrine after praying. He turned around and looked at Yuzhongjin with a little surprise. He thought he was quite familiar with the latter's coming and going time. He clearly left the day before yesterday. No matter how he thought about it, he would not come back until tomorrow.
Yes, if there are no special circumstances, Yuzhuanjin will indeed abide by this unspoken rule. The main reason is for convenience, so that both parties can be prepared. As for what this so-called preparation is?
"...Fushimi Miko?"
Seeing this, Priest Qinghe immediately greeted him, and then he said, "I didn't expect you to come here today. I'm sorry, I have handed over all the matters of extermination to other priests."
Since more than half a month ago, Yuzhongjin asked Qinghe Priest to pay attention to the elimination of demon disasters for him as a training, and he would go there to practice every time he visited.
Of course, Yuzhuanjin's request was simple, as long as he could actually fight, but the priest Qinghe had to consider it carefully. Although he still had many files of demon disasters to be solved, those incidents were full of unstable factors.
It would be fine to let other priests solve the problem, but it must not be handed over to Yuzhongjin. Even if the intelligence required dealing with only ordinary monsters, there was still a one in ten chance that a monster king would appear.
After all, monsters are also social creatures.
Although the probability is extremely low, it is absolutely not allowed to put the priestess who bears the name of God into trouble, so it needs to be reviewed. If Yuzhongjin comes "as usual" tomorrow, Qinghe Priest will naturally prepare in advance.
I just didn't expect Yuzhongjin to come so suddenly.
"No, thanks to your help, I have made such great progress during this period. However, my abilities have improved too quickly recently, and I am exhausted both physically and mentally. As the saying goes, 'too much is as bad as too little'. I am afraid I need to rest for a few days. As for the retreat, I will trouble Priest Qinghe to help next time."
Hearing this, Yuzhong Jin waved her hand. She didn't come here for actual combat experience, but to make up for the lessons she had learned in spells some time ago, so she humbly expressed her gratitude.
"Well, I see."
Nodding slightly, Priest Qinghe said no more.
After the brief conversation, Yu Zhuanjin turned her head to look at the pitch-black young fox, Fu Fu, who were still lying on her shoulders. The latter blinked his eyes, and knew that he could not disturb her anymore, so he jumped lightly to the ground and ran away to play happily.
In the library, the elderly priestess used pure royal coins to cleanse the filth. When she heard footsteps behind her, a bright light flashed in the depths of her clear eyes.
After nearly a month of getting along, Yuzenjin also established a good relationship with the elderly shrine maiden who guarded the library. For some unknown reason, other people in the shrine kept a certain distance from the elderly shrine maiden.
The reason given by Su Yue and Xi Zhao was that they felt the other party looked very scary, and it was probably because they were punished to copy the chronicles in the past and had psychological trauma.
Back to the topic, Yu Zhuanjin found a few books that compiled numerous spell collections from the bookshelf, glanced at them, and it was as if they were printing. Almost in an instant, all of them were included in the system's [Skills] catalog.
The promotion conditions for the skill "Curse" are more complicated than those for "One Arrow", "Fox Hunting Realm", and "Burning Demon-Breaking Arrow", but they are relatively simple. This is because the nature of the skill is unique, as it is a collection of multiple skills while also having a single concept.
Therefore, regardless of quantity, quality, and number of uses, that is, the proficiency standard, it can drive the improvement of the skill "Spell", and the simplest way in the early stage is to increase the quantity.
You can learn it without thinking about the principles. This is the unique advantage of the system, and it is included in the [Skills]. In the future, when Yu Zhuanjin uses spiritual spells and curses, they will be blessed with critical hits and critical damage.
-
[Skill "Spell" level increased to level 3! ]
-
After just one morning of collecting, I gained over a thousand spells, which was equivalent to the result of my hard practice in the first half of the month. It felt like a lot of time was wasted. If I had raised my level to fifteen at the beginning, I would probably have gained even more now.

On the other hand, when Yuzhongjin was studying alone in the library while listening to the sound of leaves blowing in the forest, the two sisters Sugetsu and Xizhao who lived in the shrine had just woken up and woke up Tsubaki who was still confused.
"Ah woo~"
Su Yue stretched sleepily, then turned her head to see the bright sunlight outside the window, and said in surprise, "Is it already this time?"
After folding the quilt, Chun put on her pure white clothes and looked back. Suddenly, she noticed a dark fox shadow that quickly passed by her and went under the cabinet, then poked its head out and looked at them quietly.
"Hey~ Fu Fu! Why are you here?"
Seeing this, Tsubaki's eyes were puzzled at first, but then she reacted and said excitedly: "I know! It must be Miss Miko who is here."
"Did the Fushimi Miko come today? How strange! She usually only came every two or three days."
Xizhao put on the crown and hairband, then raised one hand and said to Suyue and Chun: "Hurry! Let's go find her together."
The three pretty girls set off immediately. Based on their understanding of Yuzhuanjin, they thought the latter would go to the library first, so they rushed in together.
……
Not long after, in front of the library.
"You two, don't you know how to behave yourself? Don't lead the new junior sisters astray."
The old shrine maiden who was guarding the attic stood aside and warned Suyue and Xizhao. She couldn't help but sigh again, "He came to see Fushimi shrine maiden, right? That's right. No matter how you think about it, it's impossible that he came here specifically to learn."
"…Um, may I ask, didn't the miko come to your place?"
Looking around, Tsubaki didn't see Yuzhongjin anywhere, so she asked timidly.
"Hmm~ She was here just now, but she left two quarters of an hour ago. I saw her flipping through books. She must be studying some spells recently. She searched for a long time before borrowing two volumes of the annals. I don't know if the information is enough."
The tone was kind, and the old miko seemed particularly kind when treating Tsubaki, which made people feel friendly. It was probably because the latter's attitude was polite enough.
"Thank you."
Upon hearing this, Chun bowed immediately.
After getting the answer, the three girls now knew where Yuzhongjin would go. Since they had all borrowed the book, it would be impossible for him to go home directly.
Walking along the forest path with swaying tree shadows, there is a loft at the upper reaches of the guardian forest on both sides of the shrine. It is the residence of Yunhe, the direct disciple of the previous priest, and it is also the place where Mizozu rests in Hikawa Shrine.
Sugetsu and Hizhao will only sleep at the Hikawa Shrine when Gozo stays overnight at Hikawa Shrine. If the latter leaves, they will return to the shrine halls belonging to their own identities.
By the way, take Chun to sleep with you.
"Fushimi Miko!"
While shouting, Xizhao pushed the door open happily, and indeed saw the figure of Yuzhuanjin, who was sitting at the table under the window, conscientiously sewing a new silver dress with needle and thread.
"Good morning, Xizhao, Suyue and Chun."
Yuzhongjin didn't feel anything strange about the arrival of the three girls, but compared to the easy-going nature of the first two, Chun was the only one who was a little shy.
"Good morning."
The soft voice had a unique flavor. After Chun mustered up the courage to say this, she smiled happily.
"Fushimi Miko, what are you doing?"
Looking at the needle and thread in Yuzhuanjin's hands, Xizhao asked with a slightly puzzled expression.
