Chapter 7: Re-appearance after two volumes (Part II)

Strictly speaking, Youmu is not particularly familiar with the tengu of Shotmei Maruwen.

But it's not particularly unfamiliar.

Either staying by the master's side to serve the left and right, or the girl who was ordered to go out to run errands rarely had the opportunity to leave the White Jade Building. Even if she has a rare vacation, she is meticulous in exercising herself.

It is conceivable that she doesn't have much time to go outside of the White Jade Tower, and naturally there is no place to talk to Tengu about her acquaintance.

But she still knows Semei Maru Wen, not only because Tengu himself is a celebrity in Gensokyo, but also because Wen's own profession also plays a crucial role.

As the founder of Gensokyo's most famous newspaper, Shotimaru is not in vain. The guy who can deliver the newspaper to the White Jade Building and the underworld, she is the only one.

It came and went like the wind, but it was hard for people to detect, and by the time Yumu realized the change, the newspaper had been placed in a prominent place in the courtyard at some point.

Even if it is a false compliment, it is difficult to say what the actual role of this so-called [Wenwen News] is, and if it is to collect intelligence, this is probably no different from waste paper. Because it is full of tengu-specific articles, the words are full of personal subjectivity, and it is completely objective information...... It can be said that there is no such thing as

However, one should not be dismissed as useless (presumably) because of this. The existence of things must have their meaning, although [Wenwen News] does not help people understand any facts, but when it comes to killing time, I am afraid that there is nothing comparable to it in Gensokyo.

The article that brings together all the gossip hearts of the Shooting Pill text can definitely satisfy the bad taste of most people.

It is no secret to say that there is nothing more suitable for after-dinner pastime than [Wenwen News].

Even Youmeng himself treats [Wenwen News] as an interesting reading in his spare time, so let's not talk about realism for a while, if it is regarded as a fun talk that makes people smile, there is no more suitable than this.

However, a problem arises.

"Hmm...... Finally alive!"

Swallowing the tea in his cup in one gulp, Wen said in an energetic tone.

There is no taste of tea at all, like a booze drinking that swallows dates, but no matter how she drinks it, at least Fang Cai's lack of spirit is indeed a world of difference compared to now.

Is this tea really that wonderful?

Looking at Wen, who had become radiant in an instant, Youmeng picked up the teacup in front of him with a little curiosity, and also took a small sip of the clear liquid in the cup.

…… A hint of bitterness in the mouth and a delicate aroma that follows this is exactly the taste of tea, which by no means is unpleasant, however......

――――Isn't this just ordinary green tea?

"That's right. This is ordinary green tea."

Wen laughed heartily, and from the subtle expression of the demon dream mixed with disappointment and doubt, she keenly sensed the other party's mood, and she couldn't help but feel amused by the straightforward personality of the half-spirit girl.

"What about you...... Why did you recover from a hangover in an instant?"

If it's really as Shotimaru said, then all this doesn't make sense.

However, seek common sense from a youkai...... This act is a fallacy in itself.

"I'm a tengu...... Tengu, who is known as a drunkard, can't really get my body drunk even if it's a ghost's wine."

It is very difficult for a tengu who has reached the realm of a great monster to get drunk, but this is the reason why "people are obsessed if they are not charming, and everyone is drunk if they are not drunk".

Wen's consciousness was infected by the atmosphere at that time, and he subconsciously thought that he was drunk, and then this subconscious also affected his body.

But once her mental state returned to normal, everything was resolved.

"Is that so...... The monster's body is really convenient."

After listening to Wen's kind explanation, Youmeng couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Her emotion was tinged with a hint of envy, but that's about it.

The souls are all half-spirits and half-human bodies, and they do have something otherworldly, but they are still limited by the limits of man.

To put it simply, they are indeed above ordinary people, but they cannot completely surpass humans.

But there is nothing to be ashamed of, her grandfather once told her that being stronger than others is not something to be proud of, and that being stronger than her past self should be proud.

Surpass yourself...... The constant exercise is precisely to push this hope to the limit.

"yes, it's convenient—but it's useless."

The words blurted out by Wen are really far from the word elegant. So much so that Youmeng wondered if he had heard something.

…… Of course, the sharp five senses that the half-spirit girl relied on to be proud did not deceive her.

She didn't hear a word wrong.

Moreover, even if it is a simple half-spirit girl, where does the resentment that she did not hear come from?

You don't have to bother with Yumu at all, Tengu himself has already explained the reason.

"No matter how much I can drink, I'm not as good as those three guys."

"Those three guys", the drinking friends who drank and had fun with Shotimaru last night.

As it stands, Tengu Maiden is the least drinkable of them all. Or the worst one.

As for those three......

One of them is the Grim Reaper of the Santu River.

"Onozuka Komachi...... You can't know this guy as a soul clan, right?"

The family that lives in the underworld and serves the undead princess is indeed a little unreasonable to say that they don't know the god of death in Gensokyo. Besides, Youmeng does know it.

Bai Yulou and the Hall of Right and Wrong have some transactional exchanges, and this kind of interaction is inevitable.

"I do know Miss Komachi."

There's absolutely nothing to lie about, so Youmu gives an honest answer.

But this also begs the next question of the article.

"Well, let's see what you think of her."

"Well............ Chest, no!"

Subconsciously said the truest first impression in his heart, but the words had already been spit out before he realized what a rude demon dream he was saying, and he swallowed the words back into his stomach with great reluctance.

But it doesn't make sense. Because Shotimaru Wen knew very well what the word that the half-spirit girl said.

I saw that the girl with charming black hair narrowed her eyes happily, and the red pupils were shining with empathy.

"No, no, no excuse. I understand very well that the Grim Reaper has no other features than a pair of big, unworthy boobs."

With a hearty smile, Wen said dangerous remarks that would make the person concerned feel absolutely furious when he heard it.

But Youmeng disagreed. However, it is clear that the tengu who is immersed in smugness has not been able to discover the helplessness of the demon dream.

To be honest, the Grim Reaper's chest, cough cough, did give a certain impact to the demon dream.

However, Onozuka Komachi is by no means like the text says, except for the chest.

In fact, a few minor glitches aside. Onozuka Komachi is quite a charismatic person.

Although it's a little frivolous.,But it's a generous sunny temperament.,It's very happy to talk to her together.。 But at the critical moment, she is very powerful, with overwhelming force, and can be said to be a great woman.

As long as there are people who know her, absolutely no one dares to underestimate her.

However, I don't know if it's too sluggish or deliberately trying to ridicule Komachi, Wen has always used a deliberate attitude to let go of words.

It seems that enough has been said about Onozuka Komachi, and Wen has changed his target again.

"The second is a little ghost."

Ghost, that's a word that draws attention.

Because in Gensokyo, there has been no trace of ghosts for hundreds of years.

The former yokai overlord has completely disappeared. In this regard, the half-spirit girl is also curious.

Therefore, Wen's words suddenly made Youmeng lift his spirit.

It's just that......

"I think it won't be long before she makes a big impression on you, so I won't say much here."

As he spoke, Wen showed that meaningful smile.

It's also the most annoying smile of Youmeng.

"The third guy...... You should also know Youmeng, a man called Eight Wills Flying Fierce."

…… Yes, Youmu does know it.

"Mr. Feili...... I do."

As soon as the words fell, Youmeng suddenly found that Shotmaru was looking at him with a completely different gaze from just now.

It wasn't hostility, and it wasn't malice. If I have to describe it, it's a text that has been in a state of watching jokes...... How much has it become serious?
