Chapter 45 - Chapter 46: Eri

"Congratulations to the host for obtaining an increase in Hanami's affection!"

"Current affection: 42/100 (Goodwill)

Unlock ability panel bonus: 30% of Hanami's total cursed energy, 30% Cursed Spirit Body!

Preview panel: When the affection reaches 60 points, a 60% bonus will be unlocked!"

Hearing the voice coming from his mind and feeling the surging cursed energy in his body, Zenin Kiyoshi only felt that he couldn't be happy.

The reason was also very simple. Cursed energy was not spiritual energy. This thing was a collection of negative emotions. To increase so much at once, his mood becoming low was unavoidable.

And as a Cursed Spirit, Hanami felt even more sad in her heart after sensing the trace of negative emotion on Zenin Kiyoshi.

Zenin Kiyoshi keenly noticed the change in Hanami's mood, so he immediately took out the gift he had prepared for Hanami last night from his arms and then said with a smile:

"Sister Hanami, this is a gift I prepared for you. It's not something particularly precious. I just think it suits you very well."

Hanami looked at the small gift box in front of her, a little at a loss. Her hands were intertwined, and her whole body shrank a little at this moment, as if she was slightly approaching the direction of a human.

She only felt her heart beating violently. As Zenin Kiyoshi opened the box, inside was a bracelet. The bracelet looked very cheap and rough. The flowers made of plastic were strung together by a string, looking a little childish.

Zenin Kiyoshi said with a slightly embarrassed smile:

"This is a bracelet I made myself last night. It's a bit rough. If you don't like it, Sister Hanami, you don't have to wear it."

But before Zenin Kiyoshi could finish his words, Hanami had already put the bracelet on her hand:

"I will wear this bracelet for the rest of my life and never take it off..."

Zenin Kiyoshi couldn't see Hanami's expression, but he could hear the seriousness in her tone.

He didn't say any polite words, just said with a smile:

"You will often take it off later, because if you like it, Sister Hanami, I will make more bracelets for you later."

Looking at the young man's bright smile, Hanami only felt an indescribable emotion spreading in her heart.

This emotion had already begun to spread towards family.

Jogo was her family, Jogo was her own kind, but she had never felt this kind of warmth from Jogo, nor had she ever felt this kind of peace of mind from him.

At this moment, Hanami had a great doubt about the words that Jogo always had on his lips.

From the moment she was born, Jogo had constantly told her that humans were ugly, humans were malicious, humans were the garbage of this world, humans were the viruses that needed to be eliminated, and all humans were sinful!

But after coming into contact with Zenin Kiyoshi, Hanami had felt more than once that Jogo's words were wrong...

Humans may be ugly, humans may be sinful, but it is definitely not the case that all humans are like this.

Jogo had once told her that she was born from nature's absolute malice towards humans, and the meaning of her birth was to kill humans.

But was that really the case?

She did not like to kill. The lives of flowers, plants, and trees were lives. Humans who destroyed nature at will deserved to die, but what about the people in the flower shop? What about the people who reclaimed oases in the desert that Zenin Kiyoshi had told her about? To be more specific, what about Zenin Kiyoshi?

Did all these people deserve to die?

Hanami felt that it was not so, things were definitely not like that.

Zenin Kiyoshi taught her to think independently. She did not want to be a fool who only listened to others' words. She wanted to know the world with her own eyes and way of thinking.

Looking at the not-so-exquisite bracelet on her wrist, Hanami raised Zenin Kiyoshi's status to the same level as Jogo's.

In fact, in Hanami's own ranking in her heart, sometimes Zenin Kiyoshi was even above Jogo.

Toji looked at Zenin Kiyoshi, who was talking in a set way, and his mouth was a little agape with surprise.

Is this brat Zenin Kiyoshi really only ten years old?

He shook his head. He didn't particularly care about what Hanami had said before.

Everyone has secrets that are hard to tell. He and the others had not done anything particularly good for Hanami. It was normal for others to be unwilling to tell them secrets. And Hanami herself had said that she would ensure Zenin Kiyoshi's safety later, which was enough.

There was no need to ask others to be so good to you. This world was just like this. Most people were bastards.

He yawned and then said:

"You guys tidy up the house first. Hanami will clean, and you bastard brat will arrange the furniture. I'll go buy some groceries. The old man probably won't be back until the evening. He usually goes to bet on horses after drinking. I have to go too after I finish eating. I'll come back with the old man then."

With that, Toji walked directly downstairs. He still did not take the elevator, but this time there was clearly no one at the elevator.

Zenin Kiyoshi keenly noticed this point. In fact, Toji had always had this problem.

In Zenin Kiyoshi's words, this guy had not received any social training since he was a child. He was a social phobic. Rather than not wanting to take the elevator, it was better to say that this guy didn't know how to socialize. He felt that being in a small space like an elevator with strangers was a particularly awkward thing for him.

But at this moment, Zenin Kiyoshi suddenly saw an extremely familiar figure.

It was a woman with a gentle expression. She was currently holding a large pile of garbage and walking towards the elevator.

Looking at the very characteristic face that was the same as Megumi Fushiguro's, Zenin Kiyoshi immediately realized the other party's identity.

In the original story, she only appeared in a few frames, Megumi Fushiguro's biological mother!

Also Zenin Toji's first wife!

Seeing this, Zenin Kiyoshi immediately shouted to Toji who had just walked to the emergency exit:

"Hey! Uncle Toji, you're going the wrong way. The elevator is on the other side. That sister is carrying so many things. You should help her! We'll be neighbors in the future, we have to get along well!"

Toji's hand, which was just about to push open the emergency exit door, paused. His whole person subconsciously turned his head and met the eyes of Miss Eri who was also looking up at this moment.

Miss Eri's cheeks flushed visibly. Toji was actually very handsome. Coupled with his body, which was like a marble sculpture, especially now that it was summer, his charm had risen by several notches.

And Toji at this time was a little shy and annoyed. What was that bastard brat saying?!
