<h4>Chapter 1132: Kurumi''s acting unusual, she''s taking the initiative?</h4>
Kotori and Tobiichi Origami stared each other down despite the humans near them. The mood was reduced to a cold stillness.
"Shido…Nii-san…"
Yoshino hid behind Wu Yan after she sensed the heavy air. Yoshinon also tried to pacify Yoshino by patting her head.
If this is the original work, Yoshino would have experienced Reiryoku leakage and caused her Spirit powers to go out of control.
As for Kurumi, she''s smiling on the side without a hint that she wants to intervene. She''s taking an outsider stance regarding this confrontation. Her eyes were wavering with excitement. She''s the kind of girl who wouldn''t mind watching the world burn.
Kurumi said nothing, however, when she saw Wu Yan''s impassionate look, she couldn''t help but voice her intrigue.
"Ara, hubby-sama''s not going to stop them?"
Kurumi giggled after licking her lips.
"They might just start a brawl like this, you know…"
Wu Yan sighed after looking at Tobiichi Origami and Kotori.
"Kotori''s Reiryoku power is sealed. Without my permission, she can only fight with human strength. Tobiichi Origami''s also not using her Realizers so she''s a normal human too. At most, they would be scratching each other in a chick fight, there''s nothing scary about that…"
Tobiichi Origami and Kotori''s winced when he pointed this out.
"Ara, I forgot about that…"
Kurumi covered her mouth. She then had an idea that sprouted a devilish grin on her face.
"If that''s the case, we should let them duke it out, right? We won''t have to stop them too…"
"N-no…"
Yoshino spoke up.
"Shiori''s here too, if they fought then Shiori will get mad…"
Kotori and Tobiichi Origami finally copsed.
"Hmph…"
Kotori waved her hand like a generous individual.
"S-seeing as there are so many people here, I will leave it like this for now lest we drag innocent bystanders into this…"
"No no no…"
Wu Yan retorted.
"You just wanted to preserve your image as the cute sister in Shiori''s mind…"
"I should be saying that!"
Tobiichi Origami continued leering at Kotori.
"Unlike spirits of destruction like you, AST is created to protect the world. We cannot bring innocent casualties into our fight…"
"I am not sure you should be saying that…"
Wu Yan retorted once more.
"You''re just worried that Shiori will hate you after witnessing your acts of destruction…"
Kotori and Tobiichi Origami lowered their heads at the same time. After a brief silence, they looked at Wu Yan with the same frosty eyes. Wu Yan shifted his gaze away awkwardly.
"I am going to Shiori''s side."
Tobiichi Origami left them with that.
Kotori flinched before shrieking in rage.
"Who in their right minds would let a psychopath like you go near Nee-chan!"
Kotori wanted to chase her down but someone pulled her back by her cor.
"What?!"
Kotori roared while trying to break free from the grab. However, the giggle of the culprit stopped her in her tracks.
"Ara, Kotori-chan, where do you think you''re going?"
Kurumi narrowed her eyes.
"Don''t forget about our deal…"
"Dang…"
Kotori threw a sharp gaze in Kurumi''s direction. She yanked herself free of Kurumi''s hold. She approached Yoshino before grabbing her hand.
"Yoshino, let''s go look for nee-chan together!''''
Yoshino obediently nodded her head. They both ditched Wu Yan behind much to his confusion.
"What''s going on here?"
Wu Yan''s lip twitched. He exchanged a look with Kurumi who is beaming radiantly for some reason.
"Did they just leave us behind?"
"Maa maa, we can''t do anything about that. This situation can''t be helped…"
Kurumi is getting more cheerful by the second.
"Looks like I will have to rely on hubby-sama to keep mepany during the festival…"
"Guh… It would seem so…"
Wu Yan rubbed the back of his head. He bitterlyughed after confirming everyone but Kurumi''s out of sight.
"What was that about staying together? In the end, we went separate ways, what the heck…"
"Then…"
Kurumi hugged Wu Yan''s arm.
"Let''s enjoy the festival together!"
"Well, I don''t mind doing this…"
Wu Yan looked at the wall of moving humans in front of him.
"I still have to help them pay the bills…"
"Don''t worry about it…"
Kurumi continued grinning.
"When Kotori left, she also took your wallet with her!"
"Ha?"
Wu Yan rummaged around his pocket only to find an empty void.
"Why that Kotori, I oughta…"
Wu Yan started mumbling.
"How am I going to enjoy the festival like this?! Does she expect me to talk my way through the night?!"
"Ara, I have a bit of cash with me…"
Kurumi started using a coquettish voice with him.
"It''s not much but it should suffice for the both of us…"
"Sorry, Kurumi…"
Wu Yan shook his head. He perked himself up afterughing bitterly one more time.
"It''s the Tanabata festival, I can''t make ady pay like this. Shiori''s not here anyway, let''s go sell some gold coins…"
Kurumi beamed up after listening to Wu Yan. She hugged his arm tighter, pressing her ample bosom up and against his arm.
"I will ept hubby-sama''s gracious offer…"
Seeing Kurumi''s smile, Wu Yan couldn''t help but a bit puzzled and troubled despite the sensation of her cans pressing against his arm.
Kurumi''s not acting normal. Wu Yan is very familiar with Kurumi so he can tell her behavior and expressions are out of the ordinary…
In the past, Kurumi''s smile was mostly fake or forced. She''s genuinely smiling right now…
Then, he recalled how she seduced him in his bedroomst night and the weird deal between Kotori and her.
His gut told him that Kurumi was hiding something.
Judging by Kurumi''s personality, there''s a very real chance that Kurumi is pranking him. Wu Yan couldn''t help but think about her weird antics.
He looked into her beautiful eyes with his simrly enchanting eyes.
Kurumi didn''t look away, she just quietly gazed into the windows of his soul.
The two put up a wall of intimacy that isted the world from their world.
Wu Yan chortled after a short while.
"Okay! Let''s go shopping!"
Kurumi lit up. She practically threw herself into Wu Yan''s embrace as she gave his arm a tight squeeze.
"Okay!"
