Chapter 533: Foxes, Sake, and Light Novels!

~5 min read 807 words

Luo Li was surprised by her question.

"Kamisato Ayaka, huh..."

After pondering for a moment, Yae Miko heard a melodious voice from ahead.

"Just treat it as a collecting hobby, just like how I cultivated you five hundred years ago."

"???"

A collecting hobby?!

Yae Miko couldn't have imagined that this would be the answer.

If she really had to say, she thought it was because of her own Hakushin bloodline.

In other words, she was also a piece of the puzzle in his collecting hobby?

Thinking of this, Miko's gaze became subtle.

Regardless of what she thought, the two soon arrived at the Grand Narukami Shrine.

Many shrine maidens saw Luo Li and the Guuji and hurriedly performed their respects.

A so-called shrine is the place behind the torii gate.

And the torii gate generally symbolizes the portal to the divine realm.

That is to say, the shrine is the kingdom of the gods.

And they are the people who serve the gods; usually, shrine maiden also means dedication.

Therefore, besides respect, these shrine maidens were also a bit uneasy.

They didn't feel this way when serving the Raiden Shogun, after all, they were all women, and nothing could happen.

But the Luo God was of the opposite sex; no matter what request he made, the shrine maidens had to fulfill it.

Clearly, they were overthinking it; Luo Li wasn't the type to develop an interest in any woman he saw.

At the very least, it had to be someone like Yae Miko.

Interestingly, just as they arrived at the shrine, a cute-looking shrine maiden came to Miko.

"Editor-in-Chief, after you left, there were manuscripts sent from Yae Publishing House in Inazuma City, hoping for your review, and they also sent food from Uyuu Restaurant."

As she spoke, she pushed two boxes in front of her.

One red, one black.

The red one was slightly larger, and a fragrance wafted from inside.

"I understand, you may go now."

Yae Miko glanced at the smiling Luo Li and inexplicably felt a bit guilty.

"Tsk, when did the title change from Guuji to Editor-in-Chief? Little Yae, you play quite interestingly in private."

Just as she teased the shrine maidens casually outside, Luo Li could also tease her casually. Using his index finger to lift the little fox spirit's chin somewhat frivolously, his eyes carried a playful smile.

Now that the "perpetrator" had become the victim, Miko could only stare at him with dissatisfaction.

"If Your Majesty likes it, please do it in the room; Little Yae will follow Your Majesty in everything."

In an instant, she turned the tables; this was a trick Miko had learned from the Mistress. Her charming, narrow eyes were watery, and her peach-pink eyeshadow blinked, making her look even more pitiful.

"Alright, stop pretending. It just so happens I haven't had lunch yet, so solving it here with you is fine."

Luo Li flicked Miko's forehead lightly, picked up the red food box, and entered the courtyard inside the shrine.

In an instant, the noise of the front hall became quiet.

Yae Miko raised the corners of her mouth slightly, picked up the black box containing the light novel manuscripts, and followed behind.

Several minutes later!

The courtyard filled with Sakura trees was covered in petals.

Luo Li drank the sake from Uyuu Restaurant while biting into the fried tofu that Miko, despite her dissatisfaction, had no choice but to bring to his mouth, sighing that life was truly good.

The reason he let Miko feed him wasn't for enjoyment; it was simply because he was reading these light novel manuscripts.

"Hmm, the creativity is still a bit cliché; there are no refreshing themes."

As an old reader who had seen a lot a long time ago, Luo Li's taste was very picky.

These so-called light novels written by authors have decent prose, but the plotlines are clearly not satisfying enough, or they are too straightforward in their satisfaction.

Yae Miko's eyes moved upon hearing this.

"Does Your Majesty have any good ideas?"

In order to seek good ideas, she leaned toward Luo Li, intentionally or unintentionally rubbing her body against his arm.

This subtle flattery from the little fox spirit made Luo Li squint his eyes. After feeling it carefully, he spoke slowly.

To give an example, he pulled out a book titled "I, Who Reincarnated as the Raiden Shogun, Am Already Invincible."

"This title says it all; the anticipation only lasts for a moment and isn't lasting. Clearly, the author's writing skill isn't enough, and the later parts are all meaningless filler."

"Besides that..."

After pointing out a series of shortcomings, he then explained the solution.

"For example, if it were like this..."

By the time he finished speaking, only the last piece of fried tofu remained. ===== CHAPTER 535 =====
