Chapter 21

Hehe, it seems everyone is still quite supportive, so I decided to update again. I wonder if the big guys can force me to update a third time?!!! After all, the number of favorites is almost 800, but the recommendations are only 200... Alright, I'll send two cute characters in this chapter, please click, recommend, and favorite! I'm begging for all of it!!!

Since the president gave Wuyan some benefits, the originally normal president has become abnormal.

Why say that?

That's because, in the past, the president always maintained a very energetic appearance, with a full face of authority, and occasionally you could see anger on her face. Although sometimes Wuyan could make her laugh, since Wuyan met Chrysanthemum, he had never seen Chrysanthemum's face turn red.

This was the normal state!

The abnormal state, however, only appeared after Wuyan had a good taste of the president's豆腐 (note: this term can be ambiguous, but in this context, it likely means "advantages" or "benefits"). Every time she saw Wuyan, Chrysanthemum's face would turn red, even though several days had passed since that day. Chrysanthemum still hadn't gotten over the 'shadow' of that day, and her face would turn red every time she saw Wuyan.

Moreover, in the past, when the two chatted, they would laugh and talk together. But now, whenever they talked, it was mostly Wuyan doing the talking, while Chrysanthemum would lower her head and listen obediently.

This made Wuyan quite troubled, as he couldn't figure out what Chrysanthemum was thinking. He had thought about it many times, but the result was always the same: "Women's hearts, don't try to guess..."

Just like today, after finishing breakfast, the two were about to go to school. Wuyan swallowed the last bite and walked out, seeing Chrysanthemum waiting for him at the door.

"I'm ready, let's go."

When Chrysanthemum saw Wuyan walk out, her face turned red involuntarily, making Wuyan feel quite moved.

Such a pure girl... After so many days, she's still thinking about that day...

This is a classic case of someone who talks without feeling the pain!

Chrysanthemum turned her head a bit awkwardly and said softly, "Then, let's go, we'll be late."

Wuyan looked up at the sky, which had just brightened, and nodded seriously. "Yeah, we'll be late..."

On the way, Wuyan kept trying to start conversations to tease Chrysanthemum, but she remained silent, just listening to Wuyan and smiling, which made Wuyan quite frustrated.

After arriving at White King Academy, Chrysanthemum finally seemed to recover from her 'stunned' state. She looked at someone in front of her with a look of disbelief.

The person had just gotten out of a very high-end car, a petite girl, not just a description, but really petite, looking like she was only twelve or thirteen years old. She had long, fine, double pigtails, and her face showed a clear look of disgust as she looked at White King Academy, as if it were a mental hospital rather than a school.

Behind her, a girl with long, black hair that was almost blue, wearing a kimono, and about the same size as her, also got out. She was looking at the double-pigtailed girl in front of her with a gentle expression, holding up her hand to support the long sleeves of her kimono, half-covering her face, like an elegant little princess from ancient times.

"Nagi!" Chrysanthemum exclaimed in surprise.

Hearing Chrysanthemum's voice, both of them turned their heads and saw Chrysanthemum with a surprised look and Wuyan with a... devilish look...

"What, it's you, Chrysanthemum..." The double-pigtailed girl named Nagi saw Chrysanthemum and said with a blank expression.

"What kind of expression and reaction is that..." Chrysanthemum's mouth twitched.

"Good morning, Miss Chrysanthemum!"

"Good morning, I澄 (Ishizuki)!"

That's right, these two were the famous ladies, Nagi Sanzenin and Ishizuki I澄 (Ishizuki)!

Nagi Sanzenin: (Level 0)

Ishizuki I澄 (Ishizuki): (Level 30)

Nagi Sanzenin, the only daughter of the Sanzenin family, like Lulu, is doted on by everyone. Although she has a grandfather who likes to tease her, he still loves her deeply. As the main female character of this world, and with a male protagonist as her butler, how could Wuyan not recognize this tsundere double-pigtailed girl?

As for the other, while not as famous as Nagi Sanzenin, for the current Wuyan, Ishizuki I澄 (Ishizuki) is more interesting. From her level, which is the same as Wuyan's 30, it's clear how powerful this exorcist girl from the Ishizuki family is. She's only twelve or thirteen years old, yet she's already at the same level as Wuyan.

Although a significant reason is that she inherited her family's excellent bloodline and has super powerful spiritual energy, for a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl, can we really ask for more?

Wuyan thought that in the original story, it might have been this Ishizuki I澄 (Ishizuki) who sealed the ghost leader, after all, she's also level 30, and her exorcism abilities are effective against ghosts. The black gas that gives Wuyan a headache might be easily purified by her.

Without the protection of the black gas, how could that weak skeleton be a match for this genius girl?

Well... the ghost leader might be able to escape, which would increase the chances of survival, after all, this exorcist girl is known for being naturally clumsy, even getting lost in her own yard and ending up at the Sanzenin family's main house...

"Who are you?" The spoiled double-pigtailed girl was now looking at Wuyan. Although she said this, her tone and expression suggested that it didn't matter if Wuyan didn't answer.

"My name is Wuyan, I'm Chrysanthemum's butler. Hello, Miss Sanzenin, and Miss Ishizuki." Wuyan could only force a smile and say to them.

"Butler?" Well, this girl's expression finally changed, even the elegant Ishizuki showed a look of surprise.

"Are you sure you're Chrysanthemum's butler? Not the other way around?" Nagi Sanzenin said to Wuyan with a definite tone, making Wuyan's heart skip a beat.

"What do you mean, Nagi..." Chrysanthemum said with dissatisfaction, after all, the implication was that she was so strong that she didn't need a butler.

"Mr. Wuyan, hello." Instead, Ishizuki I澄 (Ishizuki) bowed politely to Wuyan.

Well, the naturally clumsy girl is the cutest...

"I never thought you would come to school." Chrysanthemum looked at Nagi Sanzenin with amusement, knowing that this girl was a super absentee, rarely coming to school more than ten times a year.

"I didn't want to, but Maria insisted." She then looked at the school gate with disgust, as if she had encountered a pervert there before.

But Wuyan knew that she just didn't want to go out. As a proud otaku girl, no one could be more dedicated to the otaku lifestyle than her, at least among girls.

This otaku girl spends every day playing video games, reading manga, and watching anime, but because her brain is too smart, she skipped to high school at thirteen, so no one could control her.

Well... including the original protagonist, Ryo Aisaki...

Looking at these two extremely cute girls, Wuyan was speechless. Although he could be considered a lolicon, he was only half, and he truly liked fresh and lively girls, so he wasn't to the point of getting excited just by seeing a lolicon.

However, Wuyan felt he should get to know Ishizuki I澄 (Ishizuki) a bit more.

His third mission was to collect the other half of the mysterious crystal fragment. Since this crystal fragment is within the system's mission scope and is called a mysterious crystal, it must have some mysterious power. Such an item with mysterious power might be known to the exorcist family, the Ishizuki family.

Or perhaps Nagi Sanzenin could help, after all, her family has a pocket watch called Black Stake that can extract souls, although it's now lost, it's still another lead...

Otherwise, in this vast world, where would he find a thumb-sized crystal?

So, Wuyan decided to talk to these two great people.

Taking out the crystal fragment from his spatial ring, Wuyan said to Ishizuki, "Miss Ishizuki, I have a question to ask you."

"?" A question mark appeared on Ishizuki's head, as she couldn't think of what Wuyan, whom she just met, could ask her.

Nagi Sanzenin and Chrysanthemum also looked at Wuyan with curiosity.

Ignoring the two absent-minded girls, Wuyan held the crystal in front of Ishizuki and asked, "Miss Ishizuki, do you know what this crystal is?"

A clearly broken white crystal appeared before everyone, and even in the daytime, the faint glow on the crystal could be seen, making it look exceptionally beautiful under the sunlight.

"Beautiful..." Beautiful things have a strong appeal to girls, and although it was only half, the mysterious crystal's beautiful appearance instantly captured Chrysanthemum's heart.

"It is quite beautiful." Well, for a rich girl who can build amusement parks and swimming pools in her house, what beautiful gemstones hasn't she seen? So only she could say this with a light tone.

"This is...?" On the contrary, Ishizuki's face turned a bit serious, and she frowned as she looked at the crystal in Wuyan's hand.

"What's wrong? Do you know the origin of this crystal?" Seeing Ishizuki's changed expression, Wuyan showed a delighted look.

Ishizuki looked up at Wuyan and said seriously, "I don't know..."

Wuyan's legs went weak, almost kneeling before this lady. If you don't know, why did you have a serious expression?

"You don't know either?" Wuyan asked helplessly.

"Yes, but this crystal gives me a very strange feeling, as if... as if there's some mysterious power inside it."

Seeing Ishizuki's troubled look, Wuyan was at a loss. If she doesn't know, what can I do?

"Miss Sanzenin, do you know what this is?"

"I don't know!"

Very well, very straightforward...

"Have you seen a similar crystal before?" Wuyan put away the crystal, hoping for an answer.

Unfortunately, both Nagi Sanzenin and Chrysanthemum shook their heads, disappointing Wuyan.

"Mr. Wuyan, where did you get this crystal?" Ishizuki asked Wuyan. As an exorcist, she is generally very concerned about items with mysterious powers, and if it's something bad, she can deal with it promptly.

"I got it after defeating a ghost leader." Wuyan didn't hide it and told Ishizuki directly. After all, they are both powerful, so there's no need to hide such a thing. Unfortunately, he forgot that there were two other people nearby.

"Ghost leader!" The three girls exclaimed, drawing many curious glances.

"Ghost leader, is it a ghost?" Nagi Sanzenin asked timidly. This tsundere girl, who pretends to be mature, is actually very afraid of ghosts.

"Defeat? So, you went to kill this so-called ghost leader that day?" Chrysanthemum, although a bit scared, quickly turned to look at Wuyan with anger, as if she was upset that he didn't properly explain his 'aftermath' before going to fight.

"Mr. Wuyan, to be able to defeat a ghost leader..." Ishizuki muttered, her eyes starting to show curiosity.

Looking at the different expressions of the girls and the whispers around them, Wuyan felt a bitter smile.

Well, it's my fault for not finding a secret base to talk about this...
