Chapter 146: Demonic Contract, activated! (Bonus Chapter)

The next day.

Early morning.

At the dining table, Kasumigaoka Utaha poked at the food in her bowl with some depression.

I have no appetite~

She looked at Busujima Saeko with resentful eyes.

As if asking why Lin En didn't go to your room last night.

Busujima Saeko smiled, "There's no helping it. No one can predict where the Master wants to go."

She recalled for a moment and said, "I remember one time, the Master didn't even come to the World of the Dead."

Kasumigaoka Utaha froze for a moment, then remembered.

And then she became even more depressed.

That day, the Master and Koneko Toujou played video games all night long.

Without her knowing, the Master and Koneko Toujou had actually gotten so close!

Could it be that...

The women of the Familia are no longer enough to satisfy Lin En?

Kasumigaoka Utaha's thoughts wandered, eventually returning to herself.

Going on like this isn't a solution.

If she wants to give it, surely she can't fail to give it away?

However, the courage she had finally mustered up...

Weekend.

Higurashi Shrine.

Yukinoshita Yukino and Yuigahama Yui stood under the torii gate.

"Yukino, will this really be useful?"

Yuigahama Yui tried her best to restrain her eyes from darting around.

A few days had passed since that incident at the old school building.

Having accumulated a few days of experience dealing with Curses, they were now able to handle them slightly.

But...

It's still so scary!

Spending every day in fear.

It had left them physically and mentally exhausted, and dark circles had already appeared under their eyes.

They had become listless.

They had even been scared to the point of wetting themselves several times!

Moreover, the cunning Curses would disguise themselves to lure them in.

It felt like they were on the verge of being discovered that they could see them.

Ugh...

If things keep going like this, it seems there's no difference from being dead.

Yukinoshita Yukino, with a face full of fatigue, bit her lip and said, "This is the last shrine in the vicinity. If this doesn't work either..."

We'll have to go and request Minister Lin En.

"Let's go."

Yukinoshita Yukino stepped onto the stairs first.

On the stairs leading to the shrine, they used their peripheral vision to observe the surroundings.

"Yukino, it seems like there are no Curses here?"

Yuigahama Yui became slightly excited.

Yukinoshita Yukino's eyes also brightened a little, and a glimmer of hope rose in the depths of her eyes.

Perhaps, this shrine might work!

A while later.

The two finally climbed up.

Arriving outside the shrine's main hall.

"Hello, are you here to pray?"

Higurashi Kagome, dressed in a shrine maiden outfit and holding a broom, looked at Yukinoshita Yukino and the other girl with curiosity. ===== CHAPTER 148 =====
