"… So, what do you mean?

What is this bowl of black stuff? "

Chiaki Chihara looked at the bowl of Chinese medicine that was emitting a strange smell.

,

He raised his head with some difficulty and looked at Teng Shiro, the pharmacist in front of him. His face twitched slightly.

"As you can see, this is medicine."

This is medicine. "The pharmacist, Teng Shiro, pushed up his glasses.

He said calmly, "Master, you have a cold head.

"Master, you've caught a cold. Lord Nine Sparrows said that you should rest well.

Also, you need to drink the medicine and recover.

We have already applied for leave from the school. So, Master, please drink the medicine now. "

"This is my first time drinking medicine … Speaking of which, this tastes super strange!!!

Won't I die from drinking it? "

Chiaki Chihara held the bowl of Chinese medicine with a stoic face. After a moment of hesitation, she drank it all.

"Eh!!

This taste … is second only to the horrible taste of ginger and brown sugar water … "

Chiaki Chihara stuck out her tongue. It was so bitter that she almost cried.

"Rest well after drinking the medicine.

If you feel tired, get up and draw.

But don't draw for too long. "

"I know, I know …" Chiaki Chihara scratched her head.

She suddenly remembered what happened before.

She suddenly called out to Kendo Shiro who was about to leave.

"Oh right, Yuan-kun!!

Erm … I'll explain what happened yesterday during dinner. "

Kendo Shiro was stunned for a moment.

Soon, he showed an understanding smile.

"Okay.

Then, Master should rest well too. "

Seeing Kendo Shiro close the door, Chiaki Chihara breathed a sigh of relief.

She slumped back onto her bed.

It was not that she did not remember what happened yesterday.

On the contrary,

She remembered it more clearly than anyone else.

That guy …

Or rather, the other person hiding in her body …

Chiaki Chihara picked up the drawing board beside her bed listlessly.

She yawned as she began to draft the remaining illustrations.

It would be the end of the month soon. If she could not produce an illustration that satisfied Yamada-kun, then her job as an illustrator would be over.

However, Chiaki Chihara's mind was not on this at all … She was still thinking about her other personality.

Chiaki Chihara had only seen the inner personality of Chiaki Chihara a few times. According to her family members, this was some kind of seal that her mother, the last Divine Inquisitor, placed in her body. She could only use it when she was in danger. However, the definition of "danger" depended on Chiaki Chihara's own judgment. In order to make her judgment more accurate and prevent more people from discovering the existence of this power, Chiaki Chihara split herself into two personalities when she was in danger. One of them was the outer personality, the inner personality, which guarded the power in her body.

However, usually, that guy would only come out occasionally. He had only released all of his power once. It was not Ryuji Hanakaion this time. The two Hanakaion guys were surprisingly smart. When they realized that something was wrong, they quickly left, so Chiaki Chihara did not have time to use that power.

This was also good. Compared to casually using that power on the street, it was likely to cause harm to the passersby, right?

Chiaki Chihara drew a round egg in the middle of the paper with a pen in annoyance. Suddenly, her phone lit up.

When she saw her phone lit up, Chiaki Chihara realized that she had not looked at her phone for a long time.

Her manga was just released not long ago, so she did not have time to look at many comments and opinions.

After turning on her phone, Chiaki Chihara saw that there were more than 999 comments on the forum and Twitter. She casually opened them and took a look. Sure enough, most of them were discussing the plot and the style of the manga.

She never lacked true fans. In addition to fans of the manga, there were more fans who were attracted by the manga's style.

Her character drawings were always very unique. The style of the drawings was not soft and cute. The lines were smooth and delicate, and the strokes were stylish. There was a bit of rigidity in the beauty. It was a style that was rarely seen in shōjo manga.

These were all comments made by some of the best artists on Twitter. After seeing these comments, Chiaki Kihara could guess that some of the KY players were going to start flaming him.

After opening the forum, Chiaki Chihara casually browsed through it. Sure enough, she saw some slightly malicious titles:

"Tsk, it's obviously a shōjo manga style. Why does it have to be categorized as a shōjo manga? The plot is also neither fish nor fowl. Are the quality of newcomers nowadays so bad?"

She only glanced at such titles and then flipped through them. It was normal for Kuroko to appear, and Chiaki Chihara was also very calm about it.

If the manga became popular, Kuroko would definitely appear. This was something that could not be avoided.

At the beginning, she had also posted a lot of pictures on other accounts, so there were some comments one after another. Other than the main account Chiliko Fuuma, the most comments were from Peach Wolf and Fat-Two Saiko.

She knew about the former, but the latter …

She opened Fat-Two Saiko's account. As expected, most of the comments were congratulating Fat-Two Kun for becoming the Devil King's Older Brother after Transmigrating to a Different World?

Many male fans even asked Fat-Two Kun to draw a little pornographic picture of the Devil King's sister. Chiaki Chihara looked at them with disdain with an expressionless face, and replied with a perverted emoji with a rippling symbol.

Ah … It couldn't be helped. This account was set up as an otaku who liked to draw Fat-Two Kun.

After revising Yamada-kun's novel, Chiaki Chihara finally drew the sketch with difficulty.

After she finished drawing, she went to sleep. When she woke up, it was time for dinner.

People who caught a cold usually had a bad appetite, but Chiaki Chihara didn't have this side effect. After drinking the medicine and sleeping, Chiaki Chihara was no different from before, except for a slight dizziness in her head.

"Do you want to eat in the main hall today?"

Chiaki Chihara followed Candlestick Cutter to the largest room in This Pill.

It was rare that everyone was gathered in the main hall for a meal.

No one was going on an expedition, and no one was going out. Everyone inside was here.

"Everyone is here … Eh!

It's the smell of hotpot!! "

Chiaki Chihara quickly smelled her favorite aroma, and she dove into the pile of short knives and sat down obediently.

"General, it's rare that everyone is together." Kendo Shiro said with a smile.

"So don't forget what you said before. You have to tell us what happened to you."

"Of course." Chiaki Chihara nodded vigorously. She also noticed that the surroundings were gradually quieting down.

"Actually, on the way home, I met Ryuji Hanakaion."

"But I'm fine … That guy protected me. That's my mother's power …"

"I see." Hasebe, who was sitting opposite Chiaki Chihara, nodded.

"But it's good that Chihara is fine … But how was Chihara discovered?" Catfish Tail Fujiro, who was sitting beside Chiaki Chihara, asked curiously.

"Uh …"

Chiaki Chihara hesitated for a moment. She was still struggling to decide if she should tell them.

"Since you're the Fu Mourning God of the Lord, and also a family member of the Lord, I think Chihara still has to tell us if there's anything."

One Vibration lowered his blue eyes slightly, leaned forward slightly, and reached out his hand, gently patting Chiaki Chihara's head.

"It's okay if you don't want to tell us. But if you hurt yourself because of this, then everyone will be very sad, right?"

"Yeah, the Lord always likes to hide little secrets. Luan will be very sad!" Luan Teng Shiro also chimed in unhappily.

"The Lord doesn't even talk to us!

We're not happy! "

"Yeah!

He doesn't even show us his diary!

We didn't even know that he bought a limited edition Okita Soki Sakura Kazuhiro!

That's a part of our economic expenses! "

"… The diary is private. Boto, go play the stock market. Don't come here and cause trouble."

"Pfft."

Chiaki Chihara covered her mouth and suddenly burst out laughing. Sada, who was chattering on the side, was surprised and shut up.

"Seriously … I didn't say I didn't want to tell you guys … Also, I bought that figurine as a gift for An Ding.

That guy has been clamoring to buy a figurine with me. You can't blame me for this. "

"An Ding, you bought an Okita Soki Kun figurine without telling me!!"

California Kiyogurt looked at Yamato Takeshi in shock. Yamato Takeshi said slowly.

"Kiyogurt will definitely break the figurine rudely, right?

That's why I kept it because I was worried. "

"An Ding, you're too much!!!"

Chiaki Chihara looked at the two guys from the Okita Gumi rolling together. She calmly cleared her throat and continued.

"Actually, it's like this … When I was studying and traveling, I accidentally met someone with superpowers."

Then, Chiaki Chihara recounted everything that happened during her study and travel, including the two monsters … The two guys from the Hanakaion Clan chased after her because of those two monsters. After connecting the dots, everyone immediately understood the cause and effect of the incident.

"Leak … leak superpowers?"

One Vibration's smile was a little stiff. He could roughly guess that this incident was related to some supernatural phenomenon, but leaking superpowers was a little …

"That's a little too scary," Skeleton Toshiro said calmly.

"If such a person really exists in this world, then it's a very dangerous thing for everyone, right?"

"Is that so?

I was wondering why I seemed to have forgotten a lot of things when I came back … "Tsurumaru Kuninaga said thoughtfully.

"No, no, no!

Don't misunderstand! "Chiaki Chihara stood up and said nervously.

"Jun Saiki is definitely not a bad guy. He's just an ordinary high school student who wants to live a normal life … just like my Kankuro!

He's definitely a good guy! "

Not far away … Kazuo Saiki who was eating at home sneezed out of the blue. He quickly felt that someone was giving him the 'good guy card'.

"Since my Lord said so, there's nothing else to say."

Rock Melt carried a katana on his back and said straightforwardly.

"Since Chihara has decided to believe him, then there's nothing to argue about, right?

After all, Chihara has always been a good judge of character! "

"But … actually, I'm not concerned about that superpower." Yamamoto Qie Guoguang quietly pulled at her white cloth and said softly.

"My Lord … Did you spend a night with that guy called Akaji on the deserted island?"

As soon as Yamamoto Qie Guoguang finished speaking, the warm hall suddenly became cold. The chill went straight to Chiaki Chihara's heart.

Chiaki Chihara couldn't hold back the smile on her face. She looked at a certain someone not far away, but the other person turned away without any appreciation.

"… You can't treat me like this!!!"

"Then … Let's eat first, shall we?" Chiaki Chihara raised her chopsticks and said with a laugh.

"If we don't eat now, the hotpot will get cold!

So let's eat quickly! "

"Let's stop worrying about that Akaji Jun. Are you saying that Akaji Jun is more important than hotpot?" Gokusen Kanazane said calmly as he elegantly ate his tofu.

After hearing this, the atmosphere finally warmed up. Everyone continued to happily eat their hotpot.
