Chapter 160 Let's Dance Together

Because there were quite a few people this time, Yu Bai asked the spirits who weren't going to help prepare food and drinks.

He decided to have a meal together under the cherry blossom tree after everyone finished soaking in the hot spring. To prepare, Yu Bai even bought a lot of fireworks from Wanwu's food delivery app.

The idea of ​​enjoying delicious food and fireworks together, and admiring the "flowers" under the cherry blossom trees, sounds wonderful.

Because Yu Bai had previously used divine power to expand the Honmaru, not only was the former castle tower completely renovated, but the adjacent forest also underwent a dramatic transformation.

Of course, this is also because the number of swordsmen in the citadel is increasing, and Yu Bai has expanded the hot springs on the mountain.

This also makes it convenient for the sword spirits, allowing each of them to relax properly between their busy battles or daily training.

However, this caused trouble for the five members of the police academy group, as they had indeed seen this deep mountain when they were exploring the citadel.

But once they actually entered, they were surprised to realize just how big the mountain was.

Today was supposed to be a peaceful day, just to meet up with a friend I hadn't seen in years, but it turned into seeing monsters, meeting tsukumogami, and now it's like a wilderness training exercise.

God knows how fast those tsukumogami could move.

Oh, forget they're not human anymore. The five police academy students' eyes instantly turned dead fish-like.

……

In the dead of night, a light mist gently enveloped the mountains and forests, and moonlight filtered through the sparse clouds, casting dappled shadows. A group of handsome tsukumogami, with towels casually tied around their waists, leisurely soaked in the steaming hot spring water, enjoying the tranquility and relaxation.

The little swords frolicked and splashed each other, while Namazuo Toushirou treated the hot spring pool like a swimming pool, floating on his back in the middle of the hot spring, enjoying the warmth and comfort brought by the hot spring water.

At that moment, Morofushi Kagemitsu's gaze inadvertently fell on Ran Toushirou, who was about to take off his coat and put on a bath towel. For a moment, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He quickly closed his eyes tightly, not daring to look in Ran Toushirou's direction at all, for fear of seeing something he shouldn't.

Ran Toushirou, seemingly sensing Morofushi Kagemitsu's panic, curled a mischievous smile at the corner of his mouth, and with a wicked grin, lifted a corner of his skirt, his eyes gleaming with cunning: "Mr. Morofushi Kagemitsu, would you like to see what's under my skirt?"

"No, no, no, that's alright. You should put your skirt down quickly. How can a girl be so unreserved?"

Upon hearing Ran Toushirou's words, Morofushi Kagemitsu quickly covered his eyes with his right hand, while waving his left hand repeatedly, his voice even trembling slightly.

At the same time, he was thinking, "Why doesn't Yu Bai do anything about this? How can men and women change clothes together while soaking in a hot spring? No, he has to talk to Yu Bai about this."

Before he could even utter a word, he heard Ran Toushirou burst into laughter.

Just then, Ichigo Hitofuri stepped forward, smiled apologetically at Morofushi Kagemitsu, and explained, "I'm sorry, Mr. Morofushi, Ran was a bit naughty. Please forgive him. Actually, Ran is a boy, not a girl."

The older brother cleans up the mess his younger brother makes.

Ichigo Hitofuri was already very skilled at this kind of thing.

"Huh? A boy?" X5.

Seeing Morofushi Kagemitsu's predicament, Furuya Rei and the others initially watched with amusement as Morofushi Kagemitsu prepared to deal with Ran Toushirou.

Upon hearing Ichigo Hitofuri's words, the other four were immediately shocked and exclaimed in surprise.

They all turned their gaze to Ran Toushirou, who had long orange hair and a sweet smile. They couldn't believe that the sweet-looking girl in front of them, dressed in a cute little military-style dress, was actually a boy.

It was only after witnessing it with my own eyes that I finally believed the fact that Ran Toushirou was a boy.

However, even after learning Ran Toushirou's true gender, they still selectively avoided the hot spring pool where he was during their subsequent soaking. After all, for these police academy students from modern society, soaking in a hot spring with such a sweet-looking "girl" made them feel somewhat uncomfortable.

Yu Bai leaned against a rock beside the hot spring, his eyes filled with a smile. Gazing at the scene before him, his thoughts began to wander.

A considerable amount of time has passed since he became a Saniwa (Master). During this time, many things have happened to him. However, he has also made many, many important friends, which makes him incredibly happy.

Speaking of which, Gilles has been back on the Throne of Heroes for several days since the Holy Grail War ended, so why hasn't he come down yet?

However... when Gil appears and sees Bu Yue, I have a feeling that the two of them won't get along.

Well, things will work themselves out. Let's talk about these things when Jill arrives.

"Wow~"

The sound of splashing water interrupted Yu Bai's thoughts. Looking in the direction of the sound, he saw Jiang Xuezuo Wenzi appear before him, somewhat unsteadily.

Behind Jiang Xue Zuowenzi, there was initially a pink-haired, heterochromatic-eyed tsukumogami. Seeing the hand that hadn't yet been withdrawn, it seemed that he was the one who pushed Jiang Xue Zuowenzi in front of him.

"What's wrong, Jiang Xue?"

Instead of making things difficult for Jiang Xuezuo Wenzi, whose face was flushed, eyes darting around, and who was almost wringing out the towel in her hand, Yu Bai asked softly with a gentle smile.

"I...my lord, I...let me rub your back."

Jiang Xuezuo stammered, his face growing increasingly flushed. If this continued, Yu Bai would start to wonder if he was about to become too ripe.

"Oh? Okay, then I'll trouble Jiang Xue."

Yu Bai got up and went with Jiang Xue Zuowenzi to the open space next to the hot spring. He had installed a tap connected to the hot spring water here so that the tsukumogami could wash themselves before entering the hot spring.

Feeling a light but firm force behind him, a smile flickered in Yu Bai's eyes. Although he was initially a little confused about what had just happened, he had quickly grasped what had occurred.

……

Morofushi Kagemitsu: How can a girl like you swap clothes with a bunch of boys?!

Ran Toushirou: Are you so concerned about what's under my clothes? (Lifts up his skirt)

Morofushi Kagemitsu: No, no, no! I don't care at all. Stop it!!!

Ran Toushirou: Let's dance wildly together!
