Chapter 399 Monster Space - The Underworld
After lunch, everyone continued their journey.
Drive from Kiyomizu-dera to Ginkaku-ji, and then from Ginkaku-ji to Kinkaku-ji.
During this time, Jeremy was deeply shocked and disappointed that Ginkakuji was not silver.
Because she said that Ginkaku-ji is silver and Kinkaku-ji is gold, they must be quite dazzling.
Now, Ginkaku-ji's hopes have been dashed.
However, I had a very happy time at Kinkaku-ji, since Kinkaku-ji really is golden, even though it is not made of gold.
Of course, it couldn't be made of gold.
As time went on, the temperature continued to rise.
Ye Xiao led everyone to a dessert shop.
Hmm... It's not an ordinary dessert shop, but a dessert shop run by a fox spirit.
Of course, the most important point.
That means both Azazel and Seraph are inside.
Looks like we've been waiting for a while.
Ye Xiao pushed open the shop door, and a refreshing blast of cold air hit her, sweeping away the summer heat.
When Seraph saw Ye Xiao enter, she called out to Ye Xiao and the others, "Xiao-chan~ over here~"
"They're here."
Ye Xiao smiled and responded, then led the group to the booth by the window. The wind from the wooden door made the glass wind chimes above their heads tinkle, and the sweet aroma of cream, mixed with the air conditioning, filled their nostrils.
Jernovia completely forgot about the unpleasantness at Ginkakuji Temple, her eyes glued to the neatly arranged desserts and sweets in the glass display case.
A wide variety of desserts attracted everyone's attention.
Kanroji Mitsuri and Yurikawa Hana swallowed hard.
Baihechuan Hua then looked at Ye Xiao and asked, "Xiao, is it okay?"
Ye Xiao smiled and nodded, saying, "Order whatever you like."
He then sat down next to Seraph and continued, "After all, Azazel paid for this meal!"
"You really know how to take advantage of others."
Azazel chuckled, leaning back in his chair, then looked at Yurikawa and the others, saying, "Alright, it's on me this time. Eat as much as you like!"
"Long live the teacher!"
Hearing Azazel's words, Yurikawa and the others laughed and shouted.
Afterwards, Yurikawa Hana and Kanroji Mitsuri ordered one of everything on the menu. Seeing this, Yotsuya Miko smiled and then chose a dessert she wanted.
Erica and Liliana ordered a coffee and a small cake, while Hiratsuka Shizuka and Roseweiser ordered a drink and a chocolate cake.
The others also ordered their favorite food and found a seat.
Ye Xiao looked at Azazel and asked, "Can we go to the demon realm now?"
Azazel raised an eyebrow and nodded: "Of course, after all, your name is quite useful and convenient."
"That's right."
Seraph then spoke up, adding with a smile, "It can be said that Xiao-chan made a great contribution to this perfect diplomacy."
Hearing what the two were saying, Ye Xiao's lips curled up slightly.
It has to be said that he has a very solid identity.
"Your Majesty, please enjoy your meal."
A beautiful waitress dressed in a kimono with animal ears and tails served Ye Xiao desserts, along with their signature tea.
Thank you.
After Ye Xiao finished speaking, he took a sip of tea.
Hmm, it's alright. It's not as bitter as I imagined, and it actually has a unique flavor when paired with dessert. "Hmm, not bad."
The desserts served by Baihe Chuanhua and the others were also brought out one after another.
Over time.
Everyone has finished resting and recuperating.
Afterwards, Asia and Yotsuya Miko continued their journey under the guidance of Hiratsuka Shizuka and Roseweiser, leaving only Ye Xiao, Azazel, and Seraph at the dessert shop.
The three of them waited patiently.
At that moment, a woman dressed as a shrine maiden appeared.
She looked at the three of them, then came to Ye Xiao and bowed deeply.
"I am Chun, the butler who serves Miss Jiuchong. I am very sorry for what happened yesterday."
"Miss Kokonoe also wishes to apologize to you, and requests that the three of you come with us."
Ye Xiao was not surprised to hear this.
But...an apology?
Judging from the little fox's thoughts, this apology could be described as reluctant and unwilling.
However, it seems they have already been disciplined.
Chun straightened up and then said, "Please follow me, all three of you."
As he spoke, a ripple of humor appeared in front of everyone.
A pale yellow halo appeared.
This is the portal to the city of monsters—the hidden city, a separate, opened-up otherworldly space.
Ye Xiao looked him over, nodded, and said, "Okay, please lead the way."
Chun stepped aside and invited, "Your Majesty, Demon King, please."
Ye Xiao nodded, then stepped into the light circle.
Ura-toshi, a city that looks like a town set in the Edo period.
A dimly lit space with a unique atmosphere.
Strange-looking creatures poked their heads out from the doors and windows of the houses, as well as from the paths leading to them.
They are the inhabitants of this world.
The moment they saw Chun, they realized that the group of people in front of them were the ones who had invited them.
They cast curious glances at Ye Xiao.
"Your Majesty, please come with me."
As Chun spoke, she led Ye Xiao and the others toward the princess's location.
In the dim environment, the only source of light was the flickering flames that stretched forward.
Ye Xiao looked around; it was eerie.
Is this where the monsters live?
It's very similar to the alternate world setting in ranking games.
But... it's still a bad review!
This place is not suitable for Ye Xiao to live in.
It's just too oppressive.
The group walked towards the princess's residence.
Along the way, the monsters pointed and whispered, watching the three of them with curiosity.
"Are they...human?"
"No, I heard they are demons and fallen angels."
"Demons and fallen angels? Surprisingly, they didn't fight. That's quite unusual."
"Is that pretty girl the devilish diplomat?"
"Probably, but... that boy seems to have the aura of a god."
"Really? Demons and gods? They don't seem to have anything to do with each other."
The monsters whispered among themselves.
It felt like encountering a foreigner in Yanhuang, filled with curiosity.
After passing through a residential area, the group crossed a small river and entered the woods.
Soon, after walking for a while in the woods, a huge red torii gate came into view.
Behind the torii gate stands a large mansion.
The house exudes history and grandeur from its exterior.
Two shrine maidens dressed in kimonos sat on either side of the blonde girl.
Ye Xiao nodded.
This time, Kokonoe wasn't wearing a shrine maiden's outfit, but rather a luxurious kimono like those worn by princesses in Japan's Sengoku period.
Dignified and majestic.
But somehow, Jiu Chong has the air of an arrogant princess.
Ye Xiao looked at the little guy whose bottom she had spanked yesterday.
At this moment, Chun bowed slightly and said, "Lord Ninefold, the guest has arrived." After saying that, Chun transformed into a ball of flame and then disappeared.
