      Chapter 66: Sunflowers Cover
      by Diswa The Shinto competition was on July 31st. That night, Itomi Sayaka stayed at Minamoto Kiyomoto's family's inn. "This is my mother, Ayako," Minamoto Kiyomoto introduced. "Mother, this is the wallet I was talking about—Itomi Sayaka." "Hello, Auntie," as expected of the young lady who would inherit a large hospital, Itomi Sayaka went straight up and held Ayako's arm. "Hello," Ayako said with a smile. "Auntie, you're so young. You look like Kiyomoto-kun's older sister." "Really? Thank…

      Chapter 65: The Divine Lord of Kyushu Cover
      by Diswa Early this morning, Minamoto Kiyomoto and Himemiya Izayoi were on the breakwater at the entrance of the inn, throwing a frisbee towards the beach. "Tutu" ran quickly to retrieve it. Kamibayashi Miko, who had not yet changed her clothes, sat on the windowsill of the third floor, leaning against the window frame, watching them absentmindedly. Shirako and the little butterfly were playing flying chess on the other side of the windowsill. The edge of the curtain was gently swaying. The vast sea was…

      Chapter 64: Fireworks and Shamisen Cover
      by Diswa The afterglow of the setting sun flickered in the waves. Walking down the mountain, the chirping of birds was louder than when they went up, but there was no sign of birds among the branches and leaves. "Seto Inland Sea." The voice was like the sound of water flowing in the darkness, exceptionally ethereal. Minamoto Kiyomoto followed the sound and saw Himemiya Izayoi looking at the distant sea. When her expression was calm, she always carried a hint of majesty. "Young Master Kiyoshi,"…

      Chapter 63: Playing Cover
      by Diswa "Goodbye, my dear, I'm going back~" Uehara Moe sang with a determined look on her face, her hand on the ship's rail. Minamoto Kiyomoto, Kamibayashi Miko, and Himemiya Izayoi sat on the white chairs on the deck. Shirako stood at the bow of the ship, her hands behind her slender waist, facing the wind like a navy captain. The little butterfly sat on her shoulder, holding down her hair that was blowing in the wind with a touch of charm. "How did I sing!" Uehara Moe turned her head and asked the three…

      Chapter 62: The Love Letter Cover
      by Diswa After the birthday celebration, everyone took turns taking a bath. There was a hot spring on the first floor, divided into a men's bath and a women's bath, but neither Kamibayashi Miko nor Himemiya Izayoi wanted to use the public bath. Minamoto Kiyomoto was the last to wash. After he finished, he had to wipe every corner of the bathroom clean. Since he started middle school, the cleaning of the bathroom at home had been on a rotating basis. After he went to university, he was responsible for it…

      Chapter 61: A Person Who Knows What’s on Their Mind Cover
      by Diswa Uehara Moe was wrong. She had taken it for granted that Ayako would arrange for Kamibayashi Miko and the others to dine in the restaurant. In fact, to accommodate the shikigami, Ayako had arranged for the dining location to be on the fifth floor. The fifth floor was the living area for the mother and son. It was decorated like an ordinary family's home, with a living room, a kitchen, a separate bathroom, and even a study. As for the room where Minamoto Kiyomoto was punished by kneeling, it was the…

      Chapter 60: The Disharmonious First Meeting Cover
      by Diswa The little white dog, which looked like a rabbit, immediately ran in circles around Minamoto Kiyomoto excitedly when it saw him. Shirako hid behind Kamibayashi Miko, and the little butterfly was on her head. The two of them poked their heads out and stared at the little white dog warily. "Woof, woof!" The little white dog stopped and barked at Minamoto Kiyomoto, its tail wagging desperately. Kamibayashi Miko let go of her small suitcase, took two steps forward, pressed down her skirt and squatted…

      Chapter 59: Arguing on the Way to Shikoku Cover
      by Diswa On July 15th, many faculties had already started their holidays. For Minamoto Kiyomoto's medical faculty, today was the last day of classes. Today, he was the only one who came to school. The Faculty of Letters had already started their holidays last week. It was still the final report. After the report, as he was going downstairs, he was thinking about whether to go back to the shrine first and put the book in his hand back, or go directly to the shopping street to buy a birthday present for…

      Chapter 58: July Chronicle Cover
      by Diswa After the wind chime festival, Minamoto Kiyomoto continued his usual early morning cultivation. He sat in meditation on the terrace, with lush green grass before him. The summer grass had grown very vigorously. The spring grasses, such as chickweed and daylilies, were submerged in the summer grass and could no longer be identified. The rooster crowed from time to time, and the ducks waddled in groups towards the mountain stream. When he opened his eyes again, the sun had already taken on the…

      by Diswa Summer in Japan is the summer of festivals. Festivals are held one after another in various places: the Gion Festival in Kyoto, the Tenjin Festival in Osaka, the Nebuta Festival in Aomori, the Tanabata Festival in Sendai, and so on. A few days after the microbiology makeup exam, the long month of Minazuki ended, and the time entered July. There was still half a month before the school holidays. On the first day of July, on the way to Ueno Park's Shinobazu Pond during the lunch break, Minamoto…
