"Eh, you're actually kind enough to come see me?"
Kasumigaoka Utaha looked around.
Although the environment here lacked many things, everything felt very familiar.
Isn't this Mizusaki Yuma's own room?
Did she not die?
She wasn't stupid; seeing herself still in this room, she probably understood.
She guessed that, just like last time, she had been saved by Mizusaki Yuma.
"If you died, who would work for me for ten years?"
"I was planning to repay you well tonight, but after you said that, I feel like my previous thoughts must have been problematic."
Kasumigaoka Utaha had felt a little touched earlier.
Now, after he said that...
Good heavens.
It turned out that if she, his free labor, died, no one would compensate him for ten years of free labor.
That's why he chose to save her life.
She really should thank him!
"It's already noon. Aren't you going to treat me to lunch?"
She pointed at the time.
This woman was really interesting.
She said she'd treat him to a meal, yet she slept straight until noon.
If he hadn't told Tohru not to cook...
They probably would have already finished eating by now.
"It's this late?"
Kasumigaoka Utaha checked the time and immediately sprang up.
How could she have imagined she'd slept for so long?
Ding-dong!
"Coming."
Tohru, who was outside the door, no longer bothered hiding and eavesdropping.
Someone was at the door, and opening it was a maid's duty.
After opening the door and seeing the visitor, Tohru instantly froze.
How did Kanna get here?
"Tohru, it really is you."
Yesterday, the energy blast Tohru unleashed instantly turned the originally gloomy, overcast sky into bright sunshine.
This was also why it felt so hot yesterday.
The clouds were all dispersed, with nothing left to even partially block the sun.
Following the location of the energy blast, Kanna found Tohru.
And after observing for a whole night, she saw her and a man go out for breakfast this morning.
The feeling of being watched that Mizusaki Yuma sensed during the day was Kanna secretly observing.
To be honest, she was very hungry now.
She had been in the human world for some time.
But because she had no money, most of what she ate were animals.
And the kind she swallowed whole.
"Kanna, why are you here?"
"I came after I saw your energy blast yesterday, Tohru."
Kanna said softly, then glanced inside.
She saw the man who was shopping with Tohru earlier walk out of the room.
And when she saw a woman following behind him, Kanna's eyes instantly changed.
She had initially thought there was some kind of relationship between Tohru and this man.
But now it seemed this relationship was a bit complicated.
"Come in first."
Seeing this, Tohru felt it wasn't good to keep talking at the door.
So she quickly brought Kanna inside and then introduced them: "This is Kanna, this is Xiao You..."
As for Kasumigaoka Utaha, she subconsciously ignored her.
She wouldn't introduce her love rival.
This bad woman was currently her biggest enemy.
"I'm Kasumigaoka Utaha."
Seeing that she had no intention of introducing her, Kasumigaoka Utaha finally took the initiative to introduce herself.
Kanna nodded, then shook the hand she extended and said, "I'm Kanna."
Grrr... "My stomach is hungry."
Kanna looked at Tohru.
She had been crouching there since last night, so she hadn't eaten anything at all.
When she saw them eating noodles during the day, she felt like her stomach was about to explode.
Now it was even more so.
If she hadn't been unable to bear it any longer, she would have observed outside for a bit more before coming over.
"Do you want this?"
Mizusaki Yuma took out a packet of beef jerky.
Because they were going out to eat, they hadn't cooked.
When he saw Kanna, he suddenly had a plan.
After all, raising one dragon at home was the same as raising two.
Kanna looked very easy to trick.
From now on, please call him Dragon Tamer · Mizusaki Yuma.
Kanna quickly snatched the jerky from Mizusaki Yuma's hand.
Then, after swallowing it whole, along with the packaging and preservatives...
Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was watching from the side, felt a slight headache at this moment.
Another weirdo had appeared.
She suddenly realized that she seemed out of place here.
It seemed she was the only normal person here.
After finishing the beef jerky, Kanna weakly tugged at Tohru's clothes and said, "Come back with me, I need Lady Tohru!"
"Damn it, she's trying to poach my people..."
Mizusaki Yuma's eyelid twitched.
He hadn't even opened his mouth, and she was already trying to poach someone from him?
A hint of apology flashed across Tohru's face; if it were before, perhaps she would have gone back with Kanna.
But now, she would absolutely not go back.
She had gotten used to this world, and her savior was here.
She didn't want to go back to her own world.
"I'm not going back!"
Tohru looked at Kanna for a moment, then turned her head away and said slowly.
This time, she probably wouldn't go back.
A hint of surprise flashed across Kanna's face.
"Why not?"
If it were in the past, Tohru would definitely have gone back with her.
After all, they couldn't exist in this world.
It would interfere with this world, so generally speaking, they wouldn't come here.
"Because... I love Xiao You!"
Although saying this made her feel very embarrassed,
Tohru felt it was necessary to express her feelings properly.
Her affection for Xiao You was extraordinary.
And it was because of Mizusaki Yuma that she decided not to go back this time.
"Hello, police?"
"Is there a need to be so serious? She's tens of thousands of years old..."
Looking at Kasumigaoka Utaha, who had already picked up her phone, he silently complained in his heart.
What's the use of calling the police? She's tens of thousands of years old.
"Answer properly!"
Mizusaki Yuma said helplessly; he always felt that the atmosphere around them was a little strange.
