A week has passed since the Immortal Event, and nothing special has happened during that week, and it was just the calm before the storm. For the resurrection of the Nine-Tails, the killing stones will attract each other. According to the speculation of the four seasons, it is almost time for the awakened killing stone to appear, but the four seasons are still very leisurely.

I've learned the lessons of the last time I'm in a new home, this time in a more remote building.

Shiki sat on the couch fiddling with his computer, and Hatsuzakura curled up on his lap, taking a nap like a kitten.

In front of him is a large space, with cushions on the ground and various gym equipment around it, which is a training ground carved out by the four seasons.

Miyuki and Shizuru staggered across the training ground, and the sound of violent body collisions came and went, accompanied by short gasps.

Neither used weapons and engaged in hand-to-hand combat.

In terms of pure strength, it is impossible for Shizuki to compare with Miyuki, and it is natural that the four seasons have suppressed Miyuki's power to the same level as Shizuki.

Maybe it's because the upgrade is too fast.,Miyuki has a lot of problems with her mastery of power.,So in the previous arrangement, I wanted her to re-familiarize herself with her powers.。

However, it is pointless to completely suppress the strength and practice martial arts skills like now, Shiki is not optimistic about Miyuki's martial arts level, in short, Miyuki is not a martial artist, and she has no talent for martial arts. Although it is said that diligence can make up for clumsiness, there is no need to learn too advanced martial arts when there are obvious other strengthening routes. Miyuki has been a battle mage all her life.

This time, Miyuki made a request to fight Shizuru, and Shiki didn't refuse, but it was a little surprising that Miyuki was not suppressed as he expected.

Looking at Miyuki sweating, it seems that she is really working hard.

"Meow~~~"

There was movement from her legs, and Hatsuzakura seemed to be awake.

"Meow?"

Are you so confused that you can't figure out if you're a fox or a cat?

"Four Seasons~~~"

Hatsuzakura looked up, saliva still dripping from her face.

"Huh...... Take a break. Static flow. ”

"Whew...... Just waiting for your words. ”

While wiping their sweat with a towel, Miyuki and Shizuru walked over, and then they saw the scene of Hatsuzakura raising her head from Shiki's lap. Because of the saliva, Shiji's pants were wet and looked very bad.

"Actually let such a young child ......"

Shizuru pointed to Shiki's nose and shouted exaggeratedly.

"Heh......"

The corners of Miyuki's mouth twitched, of course she didn't make a fuss about this kind of thing every time.

"What?"

Shiki asked calmly.

"Cut, your reaction is really boring."

Shizuru shrugged his shoulders with a bored look.

"Why do I feel like there are more people around me who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic?"

Miyuki was a little glad that Huangquan was still sleeping at this time.

"Just train us, doesn't it matter if you're always sitting here?"

After being persuaded by the four seasons, Shizuru began to train here. Before he came, Shiki had exchanged a lot of learning materials, including basic Taoist techniques, exercises, and the like, and Shiki taught them to Shizuryu.

"I am also studying, not only physical exercise is cultivation, but also the learning of knowledge is also a kind of cultivation."

"How can I have a feeling that my IQ is despised?"

"Nothing, I feel that way all the time."

When Shizuru and Miyuki exchanged ears, Hatsuzakura finally got up.

Hatsuzakura sleeps for a long time these days, which is actually a kind of self-regulation of her body, and it's not just Miyuki who upgrades too quickly, but Hatsuzakura too. Because the congenital conditions are too good, it can be said that the power of Hatsuzakura is growing even when sleeping. In the last mission, Hatsuzakura broke through to the second tail, and even temporarily reached the third tail. These growing powers also need to be sorted out, but the method is different from Miyuki, and Hatsuzakura only needs to use her instincts to adapt by sleeping.

"How does it feel?"

"Woo~~~ Rising, around the four seasons, comfortable."

After Hatsuzakura finished speaking, Shiki felt two piercing eyes.

“？”

"Oh~~~"

"Nothing."

was coldly rejected.

"You don't have to push yourself."

Leaving the two of them alone, Shiki said to Hatsuzakura.

"Ahh

Hatsuzakura's body arched forward, her head in front of Shiki.

After all, it wasn't the first time he had done this, so Shiki naturally put his hand on it.

"Woo woo~~~"

Hatsuzakura snorted happily.

"Aren't you going to lose even as a kid?"

Shizuru, who was sitting on the side drinking a sports drink, suddenly said to Miyuki.

"You, what are you talking about?"

Miyuki looked away.

"Hatsu Sakura is a child, and it's not abnormal to like to be spoiled."

"Even a child will suddenly become a woman at some point."

"Ugh!"

"You just thought about crookedness, didn't you?"

"Not really!"

Miyuki pushed Shizuru's face back.

While coaxing Hatsuzakura, Shiki sees a window pop up on the computer screen.

"Miyuki, Shizuru."

"What?"

"What's wrong?"

I don't know what the two of them are doing, as if they were taken aback. Shiki called them over and gestured to the screen.

"The Killing Stone has appeared."

Shiki is always monitoring the country's intelligence network, and the information taken over by the countermeasure room will be the first to be seen by him, so no clues will escape his sight. Although the information does not directly indicate that it is a killing stone, it can be inferred based on the scale.

"Are you going?"

"Hmm."

Shiki nodded at Miyuki's inquiry. The Killing Stone is now like a bait, and I don't know how many fish it will catch, so there's no reason not to take a look.

Shiki put away his computer and stood up, and a mirror appeared in his hand, which was the Mirror of Nitocles. A light flashed on the mirror, and then the sofa below, the surrounding equipment, and the entire training ground all disappeared, and then a chaotic world of black and white appeared.

The previous training ground was actually a fantasy created in the mind world of the four seasons using the ability of the Mirror of Nitokris to blur the real and the unreal, but in the middle of it, it was almost indistinguishable from the real.

After dismantling the illusion, Shiki reclaimed the world of mental imagery, and the surrounding area returned to ordinary residential houses.

"Let's go."

Leaving the residence, the four seasons took to the skies.

"Is it far away?"

Shizuru, who was floated and flew by the telekinesis of the four seasons, looked a little uncomfortable on his face.

"Far away, at sea."

"At sea? Tokyo Bay? ”

"No, a little further."
