Chapter 184

~6 min read 1,073 words

The strength of Heron Palace could easily deal with all those evil spirits, but the deeper issues had not yet surfaced.

The problems on this island needed to be uncovered first.

Otherwise, how would he be able to see the detailed story of this island?

After relaxing a little, Amamiya Ren picked up his suitcase and boarded the transport car that Kaguya Sigong had booked long ago.

Before long, the car stopped outside the reserved high-end hot spring inn.

"Today the entire hot spring apartment has been booked out. Apart from the daily cleaning staff, no one else will enter," 417 Hayasaka Ai stepped forward and briefly introduced to everyone.

These reservation tasks did not cost her much effort.

Of course, all the cleaning staff of this high-end hot spring inn had been replaced with bodyguards from the Sigong family.

To ensure not a single outsider could approach.

After all, those staying here this weekend were not only the heir of the Sigong family, but also the heirs of Sanzenin and Heron Palace.

If something were to happen even while staying at a place, then the Sigong family would truly have reached the end of its legacy.

So the security work was something Sigong could definitely take responsibility for.

It was just that Hayasaka Ai hadn't expected there to be this business about evil spirits either.

This really was a bit beyond her scope of duties.

Amamiya Ren glanced at the hot spring apartment, then turned his head to look at Heron Palace.

"Heron Palace, I'll have to trouble you next."

"Please rest assured, Lord Amamiya."

"Exorcising spirits is what our clan excels at most."

In fact, even if Amamiya Ren hadn't said anything, Heron Palace Izumi would have taken on this task.

Little Nagi was staying here; she couldn't bear to see evil spirits scare Little Nagi into some mishap.

At the very least, ensure that no various accidents occurred inside the hot spring inn.

Heron Palace still put Amamiya Ren quite at ease.

Her abilities were beyond doubt, and her exorcising skills were quite suitable for dealing with evil spirits.

One could say that in the current team, only Heron Palace was the most reassuring.

Of course, the problem of her getting lost easily needed to be addressed.

So Amamiya Ren cautiously reminded them.

"Hayasaka, have the bodyguards accompany Heron Palace when she moves around."

"I'm rather worried Heron Palace might get lost."

Hayasaka Ai was stunned for a moment, then hurried off to give the orders.

"Lord Amamiya, I'm not so hopeless as to get lost inside a hot spring apartment."

One could tell there was still some grievance in her voice.

But Amamiya Ren still maintained his attitude.

"Heron Palace, this is your first time here. You're unfamiliar with the situation here, so it's normal to get lost."

That was indeed true.

Arriving for the first time at a completely unfamiliar new place.

Getting lost here was perfectly normal, and besides, this apartment covered quite a sizable area.

Heron Palace Izumi insisted for a moment, but there was nothing she could do.

This was her first time here, so getting lost was indeed more likely.

That was very reasonable.

"Let's go pick our rooms first."

"After changing clothes, we'll have a proper talk."

This sudden situation definitely needed to be discussed thoroughly.

But before talking, they couldn't let their bodies feel so uncomfortable. At the very least, they needed to pick rooms and change clothes to let their bodies relax a bit.

Walking into the hot spring inn, the few girls all cleverly chose to gather together.

No need to make things so fancy.

Choosing rooms close to each other would at least make sleeping at night feel more secure.

Each of them changed into thick yukata, and everyone gathered together in Amamiya's room.

Amamiya Ren also changed into a yukata.

Sitting in front of the small table, he swept his gaze over the girls present.

A shadow hung over everyone's face.

It seemed today's evil spirit incident had quite a significant impact on the girls.

He could actually understand this very well.

It was normal for girls to be unaccustomed to these things, and after all, the girls present were really just very ordinary girls.

So Amamiya Ren chose to offer comfort.

"Everyone, this is our first encounter with a supernatural event."

"Just like our club's name, the Mystery Research Club."

"What you've obtained should be the highest grade of mystery. The diary in your hands is the absolute pinnacle in any mystery."

"So, you need to calm your minds."

"What you need is to gradually come to understand the Secret World."

"Perhaps, in the future, we'll have to face even more mysterious events."

"Everyone, this is a trial."

Hearing this, the girls who had been a little panicked earlier felt somewhat reassured.

Especially after hearing that the diary was the highest-ranked mystery, the girls all came back to their senses.

The mystery of the diary was indeed above that of evil spirits.

Think about the diary, then think about the evil spirits now.

It was like adding a little sedative to their somewhat panicked mood.

"Suginomiya, is everything handled on your end?"

After getting the scene somewhat under control, Ren Amamiya also steadied his mindset a bit.

"Already prepared."

Suginomiya Ichika gave a slight nod.

"That's good then."

Sure enough, upon hearing this answer, the girls present all breathed a sigh of relief.

At least while they were here, they could feel a bit more at ease.

Sensing the relatively calm atmosphere around him, Ren Amamiya also steadied his mindset a bit.

He truly was not good at facing this kind of scene.

He was also not good at standing under the spotlight.

A quiet, dark place suited him much better.

Being able to keep the situation under control to this extent was already the absolute limit of his ability.

"Everyone, now I need to explain a situation to you all clearly."

"Consider it a bit of knowledge from mysticism, related to evil spirits."

Hearing this, the girls present all felt a bit out of their element.

This was no longer the scientific world they were familiar with, but a mystical world they had only just begun to set foot in.

PS: Sorry, my condition hasn't been good these past two days.

PS: I'll post another chapter in a bit, but for today I'll rest first, sorry.
