Realizer of Death : The Reaper

Chapter 268 268

It only took them over an hour to arrive at the Tokyo airport. Tenku and the others wanted to return to their homes immediately, but Kirika's words stopped their footsteps.

"Then where will I live?" Kirika smiled and asked them.

"What?" Tenku and the girls were confused after they heard Kirika's question.

"Why are you showing such a reaction? I ask you guys. Shouldn't you answer my question?" Kirika chuckled when she saw their expressions.

"Wait a minute. What do you mean by that question? Aren't you going to stay in a hotel? Then why are you asking us that? Do you want us to book a room for you? We can't do it. You should be able to find a hotel without our help." Setsuka replied and looked at her strangely.

"You are wrong. I can do that without your help. Do you think I am a little girl?" Kirika said in annoyance.

"Then why are you asking such a question? Can't you book a room in the best hotel in Tokyo using your smartphone?" Kaede asked in confusion.

"I've tried to book rooms online, but all the five-star hotels close to the event location are fully booked with tourists coming to Tokyo for winter break. Some modest inns may have one or two rooms vacant. But I can't stay in that place because it makes me uncomfortable.

Also, I'm afraid of living alone because my manager still has a lot of business to do in her hometown and can't accompany me. She could come to Tokyo one day before the event started." Kirika explained and showed a pitiful face.

Setsuka and Kaede fell silent after hearing that. They felt that Kirika's words made sense but were also strange. As a Realizer, Kirika shouldn't be afraid to live alone. But it was understandable after remembering that she could only use the full strength of her Phantasmal Object when controlling the corpses of powerful monsters. Kirika was a lovely idol, so it was natural that she would have such worries.

"So you want to stay at one of our homes?" Setsuka quickly caught the meaning of Kirika's question to them.

"Correct! You can quickly understand what I mean. So where should I stay? Is it at Fuyushima Temple? Is it at Kaede's house? Or should I stay in Tenku's apartment? The latter is the best option since he lives alone. So I won't bother you two. Besides that, I can help Tenku to clean the house and cook." Kirika blushed and secretly glanced at Tenku. She felt that they were like a newlywed couple when she imagined that.

"No! You can't stay at Tenku's apartment!" Setsuka and the other two girls answered in unison.

"Then where will I stay while I'm in Tokyo? You won't ask me to book a room at a hotel, are you? I already explained why I can't do it. Usually, I'm accompanied by my manager, but now I'm alone. So I didn't dare to stay in the hotel, even though it was a five-star. Isn't it time for you guys to help me? I welcomed you into my home when you visited Kyoto. So it would help if you guys let me stay at your place. You're not going to refuse my request, are you?" Kirika responded to their words sadly and sighed.

The girls fell silent as they couldn't reply to Kirika's words. But then Kaede and Setsuka discussed in low voices.

On the other hand, Wang Ruyue did not join in on the conversation because it was not her problem. She was only temporarily in Japan and stayed at Wang Haotian's place. Of course, Wang Ruyue couldn't allow someone to come to her grandfather's apartment.

Most importantly, Wang Ruyue couldn't see Kirika living near Tenku. It would be dangerous because the girl is very aggressive and cunning. He might come to Tenku's place in the middle of the night and push him down. Wang Ruyue didn't want that to happen.

Wang Ruyue had to admit that Kirika was extremely beautiful and not inferior to her. She believes in Tenku but not in Kirika. If given the chance, the girl would do anything to make Tenku fall for her.

"Okay, you can stay at Fuyushima Temple until your manager comes to Tokyo. After that, you can find a room in the hotel with her. I hope you won't give me any other excuses." Setsuka sighed and said helplessly.

She and Kaede discussed it and decided Kirika would stay the night at Fuysuhima Temple. Although Kaede's house is spacious, Kirika's presence might inconvenience her family. So she better stay with Setsuka because Fuyushima Temple has many guest rooms and maids to serve her needs.

Setsuka wants to repay Kirika for letting them stay at the Miyazaki residence when they were on vacation in Kyoto. She doesn't like being indebted to other people, especially a girl who loves the same guy as her.

"That's good! Then, let's go to Fuyushima Temple after we stop by Tenku's apartment!" Kirika said excitedly. She felt happy that her plan was going smoothly. Kirika asked about it after they arrived at the Tokyo airport because she knew that Setsuka would disagree if she said that in Kyoto. Then now, she had to carry out her next plan.

"What? Why did you have to go to my apartment? Where I live, and Fuyushima Temple are in different directions. You should go back with Setsuka and rest at her house." Tenku was surprised when he heard that.

"Yes! What did you come to Tenku's apartment for? Didn't Setsuka invite you to live in Fuyushima Temple!?" Wang Ruyue added, and she was irritated by her words. Setsuka and Kaede also wanted to say something, but Kirika opened her mouth first.

"Why can't I visit Tenku's apartment? Are only the two of you allowed to come to his place? You bragged to me because you've been to his apartment. Then why can't I go there?" Kirika complained to Setsuka and Wang Ruyue.

The two girls' faces turned red with embarrassment after they heard her words. When they stayed at the Miyazaki residence, they usually had girl talk when Tenku wasn't with them. Setsuka and Wang Ruyue had bragged to Kirika that they had entered Tenku's apartment.

They did so because Kirika kept asking them about where Tenku lived. Setsuka and Wang Ruyue felt bad not answering her since she had allowed them to stay in her house.

After that, the two girls talked about Tenku's apartment. But it turned into a rivalry between Setsuka and wang Ruyue. They want to show which of them is the closest and understands more about Tenku. So they told Kirika about their visit to his apartment.

Kirika was jealous when she knew about it. Kaede also felt the same way as her. But she could only frown and silently listen to the bickering between Setsuka and Wang Ruyue.

"What are you saying, Kirika!? When did I brag about that to you!?" Setsuka quickly rebutted.

"Yeah, we never said anything like that to you! So please don't make up weird stories!" Wang Ruyue added frantically.

"Huh? So you don't want to admit it? Weren't you very excited when you told me about that?" Kirika snorted in response to their words. Wang Ruyue and Setsuka wanted to reply, but Tenku interrupted them.

"You three better stop fighting. We will be the center of attention from the people at the airport." Tenku sighed and reminded them. He was relieved the three girls didn't fight on the plane. But Tenku didn't expect they would do it after arriving at the airport.

Setsuka, Wang Ruyue, and Kirika finally noticed the situation in that place. They looked around the surroundings and found several people watching them. Luckily, Kirika was wearing a mask. If she doesn't disguise her face, then people will come to ask for autographs and photos of her. Moreover, the airport is very crowded because many people visit Tokyo for the winter holidays.

"Ah, we're sorry." Kirika and the other two quickly apologized to Tenku. The number of people watching them would increase if they kept fighting, and some might recognize Kirika. If her identity were exposed, there would be an uproar at the airport, which would be troublesome for them.

"You don't need to apologize. Well then, we'll return to my apartment first. After that, you can take Kirika to your house." Tenku shook his head and said to Setsuka.

"I understand." Setsuka agreed and nodded. She couldn't reject his words after he made his decision. Besides, Tenku did it to stop their fight and not prolong the problem. So Setsuka could understand why he would allow Kirika to stop by his apartment. She regretted that she had competed with Wang Ruyue and made the girl jealous.

Wang Ruyue and Kaede somewhat objected to Tenku's decision to invite Kirika to his apartment. But they did not voice their feelings and still followed his decision.

On the other hand, Kirika smiled broadly after hearing Tenku's words. She was happy because she could visit Tenku's apartment. Kirika knew the location, but she never came to that place.

"Then let's go now!" Kirika got excited and grew impatient. Afterward, they left the airport and went to Tenku's apartment by taxi.

They didn't take long to get to their destination. When they arrived at the apartment neighborhood, it suddenly snowed heavily. Tenku and the others quickly entered the building.

"Please come in." After arriving in front of his apartment, Tenku opened the door and invited the girls to enter.

"Excuse me." Setsuka and the others entered in turn and left Tenku behind. Wang Ruyue and Setsuka looked used to it, but Kaede and Kirika became nervous because it was their first time coming to the residence of a boy their age.

After they went inside, Tenku wanted to take a step and follow the girls, but a familiar voice stopped him. He turned and saw an old man walking towards him. He was Wang Haotian. He exited his apartment after noticing Tenku's presence and knowing he was back.

"I didn't think you'd be so popular with the girls, brat. You're leaving for a vacation with my granddaughter, the Miko of Fuyushima Temple, and her best friend. But you returned with four girls; the last one is no less beautiful than the others. You're so greedy, brat. Were you dissatisfied with the three girls, and you decided to add another one?" Wang Haotian said angrily.
