Chapter 105

"Th-there really is something?"

Her voice began to tremble.

No matter how much she had experienced, encountering such a bizarre event for the first time still made her feel a bit horrified.

And...

Yukino was going to fight something invisible?

She looked at Yukino with a worried expression.

Then she saw cold air erupting from Yukino, and snowflakes drifting down from mid-air.

"Eh?"

Yukinoshita Yukino was completely dumbfounded.

But Yukinoshita Yukino's movements continued.

She waved her slender hand forward, and the surrounding drifting snow, as if blown by the wind, flew forward in unison.

The Grade 2 cursed spirit just wanted to dodge, but was illuminated by Yotsuya Miko's Spirit-Word Distorting Mirror and froze in place.

Cursed spirit: "..."

Crack, crack—

The ice and snow touched the cursed spirit's body, and like bone-eroding poison, it covered it instantly!

An ice sculpture suddenly appeared under the old apartment building.

Yukinoshita Yukino stared blankly at the scene before her, feeling like she was living in a dream.

This was just too unreal!

Yukino, had she really turned into Yukino?!

And...

She cast her gaze onto the ice sculpture.

Although she could barely make out that it was some kind of deformed shape.

It was as if some monster was frozen inside, but...

She couldn't see it!

Yukinoshita Yukino ignored her sister, walked up to the ice sculpture, and touched it lightly with her fair hand.

Bang!

The ice sculpture instantly turned into powder!

Along with the cursed spirit inside, it vanished into thin air.

Yotsuya Miko watched with envy.

She also wanted such a cool ability...

After resolving the cursed spirit, Yukinoshita Yukino walked up to Yukinoshita Yukino and said calmly, "Sister, the request is finished."

"..."

Seeing her sister lost in shock, unable to recover for a long time, Yukinoshita Yukino sighed helplessly.

She could understand this emotion.

After all, she had gone through the same thing.

Sister might need some time...

She walked past Yukinoshita Yukino, preparing to continue grinding experience with Yotsuya Miko.

Slap!

Suddenly, Yukinoshita Yukino's arm was pulled.

Yukinoshita Yukino turned back in surprise and saw her sister smiling at her reluctantly, saying, "Yukino, this time, you've walked ahead of me."

Yukinoshita Yukino pursed her lips and said nothing.

Sister...

You are still the more capable one...

To have walked out of it so quickly.

Much stronger than she was at the time.

"Go on, Yukino, I have some things to do."

Yukinoshita Yukino looked at her with worry, then silently walked away.

She couldn't help her sister with anything.

It had been like that since childhood.

After Yukinoshita Yukino left, Yukinoshita Yukino's expression became uncertain.

Then she looked at the old apartment building behind her with lingering fear, and goosebumps broke out all over her.

She shivered and hurriedly left the place as well.

On the way back, Yukinoshita Yukino's face returned to its warm appearance.

This was an opportunity!

Yes, an opportunity for their Yukinoshita family!

On the way back, Yukinoshita Yukino, sitting in the car, had been deep in thought.

Yukino definitely didn't have that kind of supernatural power before.

The turning point for everything was after Yukino joined the Supernatural Investigation Department.

So...

"Gaining power, so that was the solution Yukino mentioned..."

Yukinoshita Yukino felt slightly dazed.

"However..."

"Gaining power requires paying a price, right..."

Yukinoshita Yukino recalled Yukino's demeanor in the Supernatural Investigation Department, looking like a little wife.

Now she understood completely.

It turned out she had sold herself to the head of that Supernatural Investigation Department.

Having sold herself like that, Yukinoshita Yukino was still a bit angry.

That was her crisp little cabbage that she had raised for over a decade!

But since things had reached this point, Yukinoshita Yukino changed her strategy directly.

Perhaps through Yukino, the status of the Yukinoshita family could even rise to a higher level?

She couldn't help but think of her own disheveled state after trying to squeeze into the Tokyo circle and getting her head bloodied.

"Hehe..."

Yukinoshita Yukino suddenly laughed out loud.

Since they didn't want her to squeeze in, she would change her approach and perform a direct dimensional strike!

Two days later, the weekend.

Chiba Prefecture, Yukinoshita family.

After hearing Yukino's words, Yukinoshita Ruka, who was Yukino's mother, still found it unbelievable.

Supernatural events?

Her youngest daughter even possessed supernatural power?

The more she heard, the more bizarre Yukinoshita Ruka felt it was.

Yukino shouldn't be the type to tell her such lies.

But...

"Are you sure you're serious?"

Even knowing Yukino wouldn't deceive her, Yukinoshita Ruka still had doubts.

After all, it was hard for ordinary people to believe such things unless they saw them with their own eyes.

Yukinoshita Yukino said helplessly, "When Yukino comes back later, you'll know."

Fortunately, she had called Yukino in advance and asked her to come back.

Otherwise, it would be really difficult to explain clearly.

They didn't have to wait too long before Yukinoshita Yukino returned to the Chiba residence.

Just as she walked through the door and saw her sister and mother, Yukinoshita Yukino was still a bit uneasy.

With her sister's intelligence, she should have guessed how she obtained her power, right?

Would she be criticized?

Yukinoshita Yukino glanced nervously at her mother's serious face and sighed helplessly in her heart.

However...

She didn't regret it either.

After sitting down, Yukinoshita Yukino didn't waste words and said directly, "Yukino, show Mom a trick."

Yukinoshita Yukino fell into silence.

Yukinoshita Ruka glared at Yukinoshita Yukino.

Yukino really had less and less respect for her.

The two didn't speak, just stared straight at Yukinoshita Yukino.

After being stared at by the two for a while, Yukinoshita Yukino couldn't hold out.

Anyway, she couldn't avoid this day sooner or later.

Yukinoshita Yukino sighed silently, then raised her hand, and a snowflake rose out of thin air from her palm!

"Hiss... cough, cough!!"

Yukinoshita Ruka gasped, but because of the ice and snow in Yukinoshita Yukino's palm, the air was too cold, and she accidentally choked.

Seeing this, Yukinoshita Yukino hurriedly withdrew the ice and snow power.

Yukinoshita Ruka coughed for a while, feeling that her whole body was still a bit cold, and couldn't help but shiver.

Then she looked at Yukino in disbelief and exclaimed, "What Yukino said was actually true?!"

Her youngest daughter had really become a supernatural ability user?!!

Yukinoshita Yukino remained silent, but her heart felt complicated.

It was...

The first time she had seen her mother so composed.

However...

What she was more worried about was her mother's questioning and condemnation.

Selling oneself to a devil in exchange for power—no mother could accept that, right?

Yukinoshita Ruka eased her complicated emotions, then thought of what Yukino had said before.

Paying a price in exchange for supernatural power?

So what had Yukino paid?

Seeing Yukinoshita Yukino's nervous appearance, she had a rough guess.

A bit angry, but also a bit gratified.

Yukino was actually capable of doing such a thing?

Was this still the youngest daughter she knew?

As the matriarch of the Yukinoshita family, Yukinoshita Ruka quickly calmed down, and her anger dissipated quickly.

Moreover, the anger was only because her daughter hadn't consulted the family.

She and Yukino had the same idea.

Since things had reached this point, the Yukinoshita family had to firmly grasp this opportunity through Yukino's line!

Anyway, under normal circumstances, she wouldn't see the possibility of the Yukinoshita family advancing further.

It was better to lean toward the supernatural direction and find another way!

Perhaps their Yukinoshita family would also become a high-and-mighty existence in human society!

"Yukino, you did well this time!"

Yukinoshita Ruka smiled at Yukinoshita Yukino.

Yukinoshita Yukino: "?"

Yukinoshita Yukino was a bit confused.

Wh, what was going on?

Mother, wasn't she angry?

Instead, she was a bit...

Encouraging and supportive?

Her expression was a bit stiff, and also a bit depressed.

Mother really didn't care about her, did she?

"Yukino, can you talk to us in detail?"

Yukinoshita Ruka naturally saw her emotions, but now that it concerned the major affairs of the Yukinoshita family, she couldn't care about Yukino's emotions.

Yukinoshita Yukino was silent for a moment, then said, "I need to ask the Department Head for instructions."

What could be said and what couldn't be said had to be decided by Lin En.

Was she really a daughter who couldn't be kept, turning her back so quickly?

Yukinoshita Ruka's eyes were complicated.

Soon, with Lin En's approval, Yukinoshita Yukino briefly explained the situation of devils and the peerage.

Of course, Yukinoshita Yukino didn't reveal a single word about the other world, the Blessing System, or special devils.

Even if they were her family, they weren't members of the peerage.

"I see..."

Yukinoshita Yukino and Yukinoshita Ruka looked enlightened.

They didn't have any angry feelings about Yukino becoming a devil's peerage member.

Rather than marrying some poor boy in the future, it was better to give herself to a devil and gain power.

Of course, the most important thing was...

Yukino was now a devil too...

However...

Didn't Mr. Lin En have a bit too many peerage members?

And the key was that they were all women!

Yukinoshita Ruka frowned and sized up Yukino.

She was indeed quite cute, but...

This figure that was hard to describe...

Who could she compete with?

Yukinoshita Yukino felt the malice from her mother.

She crossed her arms in front of her chest with an expressionless face.

Seeing this, Yukinoshita Ruka withdrew her gaze, thought for a moment, and then issued the highest directive.

"Yukino's existence has made me re-decide the future development plan of the Yukinoshita family!"

Yukinoshita Ruka resumed her dignified posture, her face once again serious, and said in a deep voice:

"Our Yukinoshita family must, must, must be tied to Mr. Lin En's chariot!"

Yukinoshita Yukino was not surprised at all.

From the moment she came over, she knew what choice her mother would make.

Yukinoshita Yukino was silent.

However, there was no resistant emotion.

After becoming a peerage member, she knew the strength and greatness of Lin En and the peerage.

Her mother being able to make this decision actually made her feel fortunate.

"However..."

Yukinoshita Ruka hesitated for a moment, then looked at Yukino again, and finally sighed helplessly.

"With just Yukino, the status of our Yukinoshita family with Mr. Lin En might not be high enough."

She thought for a moment and said, "Yukino, you go and ask to join Mr. Lin En's peerage too."

Yukinoshita Yukino: "..."
