Chapter 281: Yae Miko Has Been Used 3 Times
Chirp chirp chirp…
As the first ray of morning sunlight rose from the east, birdsong began to fill the lively air of Inazuma City.
On the half-open windowsill sat a half-eaten fruit. A few crumbs were scattered beside it.
For some reason, although the fruit clearly looked like it had been left there for a long time, the bitten area showed no sign of oxidation or decay.
It was as if… it had just been bitten into moments ago.
A mischievous little bird also took notice of the fruit.
It fluttered its wings, landed on the windowsill, and peeked into the room.
Inside, on the bed, lay a young girl sleeping peacefully—so soundly that not even a hint of snoring could be heard.
The bird groomed its feathers with its beak as it casually inched closer to the fruit.
When it judged the distance perfect, it suddenly lunged forward and pecked off a large chunk.
Then, like an arrow released from the bowstring, it shot into the sky.
It looked very much like this wasn't its first time pulling such a stunt.
But just as it reached a certain height, the flapping of its wings suddenly ceased.
It plummeted at an angle, crashing into the roadside bushes—and became still.
"..."
Yae Miko stepped out from the shadows. She had witnessed the bird's reaction from beginning to end.
Fortunately, she had prepared ahead of time and hidden the Gnosis. Otherwise…
She knew a little about the Fatui's desire to collect the Gnoses, but not the specifics.
Her Tenchi Meisa wasn't like an astrologist's divination, she couldn't see that much.
Even so, she could vaguely sense that the Fatui's objective had something to do with the Gnoses.
She just hadn't expected Bai Luo to use such a method.
She rubbed her head—curiosity far outweighing any anger.
Only after being struck did she realize that the blow really wasn't very strong.
She would probably hurt herself more by tripping.
But even so, she had slept the entire night before waking.
Thinking back… that bastard had drawn so many ridiculous things on her face.
Did he not understand how hard it was to maintain fur properly?
And that ink—so difficult to wash off. She might actually have to trim some fur to remove the marks entirely…
Her gaze returned to the Sunsettia on the table.
Yae Miko sat down elegantly beside it.
But she didn't notice that on the inner side of her thigh—near a spot completely out of her line of sight, close to her pussy—was a small, unobtrusive character: "下"
Unless a second person pointed it out, she would never see it—not when grooming herself in fox form, not when bathing in human form.
And even if someone did notice…
No—would she really let anyone see such a sensitive area?
Aside from Raiden Ei within the Plane of Euthymia, and the long-departed Kitsune Saiguu who vanished centuries ago?
No—no one else would ever see it.
The Fontaine merchant who sold the pen to Bai Luo had bragged:
"This is Fontaine's special technology! Without a special dissolving solution, writing made with this pen will last a thousand years!"
A thousand years… Bai Luo had his doubts.
But a few hundred years, or decades at least, seemed likely.
He wondered if he'd ever get the chance to add the remaining two strokes, completing the full tally mark character "正".
"Mm…"
Kuki Shinobu sat up groggily.
After removing the face guard from her mask, she habitually surveyed her surroundings.
But when she saw who was sitting by the window, she nearly jumped.
"Lady Guuji!"
After getting out of bed, Kuki Shinobu hurriedly bowed.
She had once worked as a trainee shrine maiden at the Grand Narukami Shrine, so she knew the woman before her very well.
If possible… it was best not to offend this lady.
"You're awake?"
Yae Miko crossed her legs and casually pushed the fruit tray toward Shinobu.
"Um… what happened to me?"
Unlike Yae Miko, although Shinobu had fallen unconscious earlier and the blow she took from Bai Luo was lighter than Yae Miko's, her condition was clearly much worse.
Part of her memory had even vanished.
She only remembered stopping the boss from going to have a meal with Miss Hina, then chasing after that Mister Bai… After that, everything was fuzzy.
"I found you on the road. You were sleeping so soundly that I didn't wake you—just brought you back here."
Yae Miko didn't mention Bai Luo at all. She simply made up a casual lie to gloss over it.
"S–sorry, Lady Guuji. Lately I think I've come down with some kind of illness. I keep falling asleep for no reason… and sometimes I lose parts of my memory."
"...?"
Often?
Well well, Bai Luo—how many times did you whack her without telling me?
You've hit her so many times she's started thinking she's sick.
"From what you describe, it doesn't sound like an illness. More like… being possessed. How about coming to the shrine? I can arrange someone to help exorcise it."
Yae Miko picked up the half-eaten fruit from the windowsill and tossed it lightly in her hand—making it look as though she herself had eaten from it.
Shinobu, however, was far more focused on what Yae Miko had just said.
"Thank you for your concern, Lady Guuji, but for something this small… there's no need."
Get someone to exorcise her? Knowing this Guuji… the person she "arranged" would probably be her own elder sister.
Shinobu already avoided her whenever possible—why would she willingly deliver herself?
"Thank you for your help, Lady Guuji. I still have matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave now."
Having realized she'd slept for an entire night, and already worried about Itto's situation, how could she stay another second in this terrifying Guuji's room?
She put her face guard back on and prepared to leave.
"Wait. Take this for breakfast. If word gets out, people might say I'm mistreating a former employee."
Yae Miko picked up a pristine Sunsettia from the plate and tossed it to her.
After watching Shinobu catch it, she shook the half-eaten fruit in her hand again.
"It tastes quite good."
"…Thank you, Lady Guuji."
Shinobu bowed again, then walked out with the fruit.
As long as this Guuji didn't use her status to force her to stay, everything else was negotiable.
Thinking this, she removed her face guard and took a bite of the fruit.
Watching her walk away, Yae Miko placed her fruit back on the table, a beautiful smile curling at the corner of her lips.
"Three… two… one."
Thud—
Hearing the sound outside, Yae Miko rose and opened the door—which Shinobu had courteously closed on her way out.
In the corridor, the newly awakened Kuki Shinobu was once again collapsed on the floor, unconscious. Not far in front of her lay the Sunsettia she had just bitten into.
Even though it had rolled several times on the ground, the bitten area remained suspiciously untouched—spotless.
As if… even bacteria knew that thing was more terrifying than they were.

Note:
The "下" is a hentai kind of thing that are used to count how many time a girl has been creampied, for example, the "下" has three strokes, so it mean Yae Miko has been used 3 times.
