Chapter 42: Shizuka Hiratsuka

Thus, everyone had a fulfilling day.

Time passed bit by bit.

The sky was also dyed golden.

Meanwhile, in Chiba, at the entrance of an izakaya.

An Aston Martin V12 Vantage slowly drove towards the entrance.

In the driver's seat sat a woman with long black hair, wearing a white shirt, black trousers, and a white lab coat over it.

Her name was Shizuka Hiratsuka.

She was a high school teacher.

However, her expression was not very good at the moment.

It seemed she had encountered something unpleasant and urgently needed someone to guide her.

She raged helplessly in the car for a while.

Then she found a parking space and parked her beloved car.

Afterward, she walked towards her destination, the izakaya, and pushed the door open.

The interior of the izakaya was very cozy.

This atmosphere was completely different from that of other izakayas; it was lively and warm.

Warm yellow lights inside the room illuminated every corner, wooden tables and chairs were arranged artfully, and the walls were adorned with photos and small decorations full of life.

Customers sat together, talking softly, their faces beaming with relaxed smiles.

Behind the bar, the owner skillfully mixed various drinks, occasionally cracking a small joke with customers, eliciting light laughter from everyone.

As the door opened and closed.

Shizuka Hiratsuka walked in, taking off her lab coat as she did so.

"Little Shizuka, you're here."

"Yes, Uncle Sakamoto, the usual."

"No problem."

The owner, named Sakamoto, responded and went to prepare the food.

Shizuka Hiratsuka sat in her usual seat in front of the owner and placed her coat in a nearby cabinet.

After a while.

The owner poured a glass of iced beer and brought it over to Shizuka Hiratsuka.

Looking at the dispirited Shizuka Hiratsuka, the owner put down the glass and teased her.

"Little Shizuka is in such a bad mood today, why? Did your blind date fail again?"

Sakamoto's words hit the mark directly.

"Uncle Sakamoto, if it weren't for your age, I'd definitely punch you." Facing the owner's words, Shizuka Hiratsuka rolled her eyes at Sakamoto, then continued, "Yes, the blind date failed again today."

"Don't be discouraged, fate can't be rushed."

Sakamoto smiled and tried to comfort Shizuka Hiratsuka.

Facing Uncle Sakamoto's comfort, Shizuka Hiratsuka waved her hand.

"Got it, you go back to work."

"Alright, you drink first."

After saying that, Uncle Sakamoto began to prepare the food.

Shizuka Hiratsuka watched slowly, holding the glass with both hands.

She really wanted to have a sweet relationship too!

How old was she this year?

She thought she was 27.

She was already 27 in actual age, 28 in nominal age, almost 29, and nearly 30.

She felt like she was getting old.

And someone like her still didn't have a partner!

No one liked her on blind dates.

Wasn't it just that she liked to smoke, drink, occasionally speed, and play martial arts?

Thinking of this, the depressed Shizuka Hiratsuka took a big gulp.

"Ha~"

"Comfortable~"

The frustration of Shizuka Hiratsuka's failed blind date was somewhat washed away by this iced beer.

As she drank the beer sip by sip.

Shizuka Hiratsuka felt much better.

After a while, the owner brought out Shizuka Hiratsuka's usual favorite dish and refilled her glass.

"Uncle Sakamoto, I didn't order this."

Shizuka Hiratsuka looked at the extra plate of tempura and called out to Uncle Sakamoto.

Uncle Sakamoto didn't look up, just said casually.

"It's on me."

"Don't give up on your hope for love because of a small setback; you'll meet someone eventually."

Shizuka Hiratsuka felt a warmth in her heart and responded with a smile: "Got it, thank you, Uncle Sakamoto."

And so, Shizuka Hiratsuka enjoyed her food and drink.

Happily, she began her evening of joy.

The sky slowly darkened.

The customers in the izakaya changed again and again.

A bit tipsy, Shizuka Hiratsuka paid the bill and got up, ready to leave.

Her peripheral vision suddenly caught a white card.

Shizuka Hiratsuka picked up the card and looked at it.

"Summon a demon and pay the corresponding price to fulfill your wish?"

"Uncle Sakamoto, where did this come from?"

Uncle Sakamoto poked his head out, saw the card in Shizuka Hiratsuka's hand, and thought for a moment.

"Oh, that's my granddaughter's thing. She says it can summon demons to grant wishes."

"And there are no such things as demons in this world; it's all just for amusing children."

Upon hearing this, Shizuka Hiratsuka couldn't help but smile, also thinking it was just a child's toy.

"Right, just for amusing children."

She had originally intended to put it down, but with the alcohol going to her head, she inexplicably put the card into her pocket.

She took her clothes and left the izakaya.

Looking at the moon in the sky, Shizuka Hiratsuka smiled.

She also walked towards home.

As for the car, she would come back for it tomorrow.

...

Inside Ye Xiao's grand estate.

Everyone had finished their day's training.

"Everyone, you've worked hard in training, let's go home together."

"It's... it's finally over."

Hearing Ye Xiao's words, Hyoudou Issei's eyes went black, and he fainted directly.

Today.

The entire day!

Hyoudou Issei was rammed by Elsa's enchanted pickup truck countless times.

Fainting was fainting.

At least he didn't have to train anymore.

But there were two healers in the team.

They directly pulled the unconscious Hyoudou Issei back to continue the cruel training.

Koneko was soaked all over.

Her foundation was already good, so she directly started practicing according to the secret manual.

Therefore, she had quite a Gains today.

Kiba Yuto also spent the day learning breathing methods from Kanae, and he could fight with his physical body without using magic or Sword Creation.

So he also had gains.

The one who shared Hyoudou Issei's misfortune was Gaspar.

As everyone knows, Zhu Nai-senpai is a slight sadist.

So everyone understood Gaspar's training.

And Asia and Valerie's faces were a bit pale, after all, they had used their Sacred Gear abilities countless more times today than usual.

After all, it was to help Hyoudou Issei recover quickly and then return to training.

This led to everyone's magic power being depleted at the moment.

So they needed Ye Xiao to replenish their magic.

"Brother... Asia feels she needs to replenish her magic."

"I... me too."

The two leaned on Ye Xiao and whispered.

"Alright."

Ye Xiao nodded.

Asia boldly looked up and kissed him in front of everyone.

"Oh my, oh my~ I didn't expect Asia to become so bold~" Zhu Nai looked at this scene and teased.

Asia was already blushing, and with that remark, her face became even redder.

And Valerie looked at Ye Xiao's neck and swallowed.

Since that spot was taken then....

Valerie also leaned against Ye Xiao's chest and gently bit his neck.
