Saying this, Zhu Haomiao glanced at the two people disappearing into the school building and smiled with a hint of implication. "Our two Masters are childhood friends both favored by the Heavenly Destiny. It’s hard for us to really fight. I’m sure you understand the effectiveness of the Spell; it’s not worth it for us both to suffer." Hearing this, Amaterasu’s cold face softened slightly, and she nodded expressionlessly. "Then let’s have a temporary ceasefire." After speaking, she stepped forward as if parting the sea like Moses. All the students along the way respectfully made way from afar, looking at her with eyes full of admiration and awe. Watching the graceful and charming figure of Amaterasu float away, Zhu Haomiao licked his lips, gradually suppressing the raging desire in his eyes. Restrain Gluttony, Dao Heart +1 Restrain Lust, Dao Heart +1 Exhaling a breath of turbid Qi, the strange and sinister aura on his face completely dissipated, and Zhu Haomiao revealed a sunny and hearty smile. Was just worried about how to hone my Dao Heart, and heaven sent a perfect tool person! Once I’m done using them, I can devour them again; it’s simply... wonderful! "Amaterasu, wait for me." In Amaterasu’s incredulous gaze, Zhu Haomiao chased after her like an innocent high school boy, watching her with "gentle" eyes and walking slowly side by side. In the eyes of others, his gaze seemed gentle and indulgent, but in Amaterasu’s intuition, it was filled with a horrifying, sinister desire. Even with a divine strong will, it was inevitable to feel a chill run down her spine. "What exactly do you want?" "We’re allies now, so of course, we should be affectionate with each other." After giving Zhu Haomiao a deep look, Amaterasu turned and left. Zhu Haomiao, not caring at all about Amaterasu’s aura of disdain and rejection, trailed after her, his eerie and dark gaze lingering on her elegantly noble figure until she entered the classroom, and then he stopped with regret. "I’ll come to play with you after class." The response he got was the sound of the classroom door slamming shut, Zhu Haomiao rubbed his nose, which almost got flattened, and smacked his lips with a sense of longing. Restrain Gluttony, Dao Heart +1 This efficiency is simply unbelievable! Looking at the information in the Book of Black, Zhu Haomiao nodded thoughtfully. The sweet scent emanating from her divinity is the most enticing bait for me! To constantly endure the presence of her so close without "devouring" her is indeed a severe test! Rubbing his chin, Zhu Haomiao ignored the curious gazes of the students and sensed Abe Waka’s location, searching unhurriedly. Before long, he saw a young boy and girl walking one behind the other, and when Yazaki Yu saw Zhu Haomiao, he bowed with some shy apology. Zhu Haomiao nodded back at him with a smile, while Abe Waka warily waved Yazaki Yu away. After Yazaki Yu left reluctantly, Abe Waka explained to Zhu Haomiao. "Yazaki Yu is my childhood friend. His family is also from a line of Onmyoji, but since his father disappeared when he was young, the entire Yazaki family gradually fell into decline. I didn’t expect him to become a Master as well." As she spoke, Abe Waka raised her hand, looking at the gradually dimming and concealing dark dragon pattern, frowning in worry. If the worst happens, the two of them might be forced to become enemies... Shaking her head, Abe Waka pushed away the gloom from her heart, her eyes regaining firmness. "There are no restrictions in the Holy Grail War, so I’ve already agreed with Yazaki to temporarily form an alliance and face external threats together." "Just right, I heard him say that his Servant is very strong..." Hearing this, Zhu Haomiao smiled and agreed. "Indeed, very strong." Sharply catching the details in Zhu Haomiao’s words, Abe Waka asked. "How is she? How does she compare to you?" "Amazing, the taste is terrific!" "Uh, I mean, I knew her from before. Remember when I told you about Amaterasu?" Before she had time to ponder, Abe Waka was distracted, her pupils suddenly contracting. "She’s the Heroic Spirit causing the celestial phenomena anomaly?!" "Could it be... what Yu-kun said is true, she really is a Divine descended upon earth?" Listening to the girl’s shaken heart’s murmurs, Zhu Haomiao looked at her strangely. "Didn’t I tell you? In a sense, she is indeed the head of the Three Noble Sons in your Japanese myth—Amaterasu." "Of course, you don’t have to be afraid. So-called gods are merely more powerful extraordinary creatures." "As long as the strength is strong enough, they can also be Blood Food and stepping stones." Hearing Zhu Haomiao’s audacious words, Abe Waka stared at him blankly, her mind completely blank. What are you saying?! Looking at the black-clad youth’s nonchalant and indifferent expression, Abe Waka suddenly realized. "Didn’t you say you were heartfelt friends with Amaterasu?" "Why doesn’t it sound like it from your words..." Hearing this, Zhu Haomiao awkwardly shifted his gaze, pretending to look at the scenery. However, the regained Abe Waka stared at him firmly, her sharp gaze like a steel knife scraping across his cheeks repeatedly. In the end, Zhu Haomiao couldn’t hold it anymore and spread his hands. "We are indeed heartfelt friends, in the literal sense." Seeing Abe Waka’s confused look, Zhu Haomiao helplessly stretched out his hand, fingers like hooks, fiercely grabbing and tearing at the void. "In the physical sense." Instantly understanding his words, Abe Waka jerked back two steps, staring at him in disbelief, her fingers raised tremblingly. "You... you... Amaterasu!" "Tsk, calm down, don’t panic. It’s no big deal; I’ve already settled it with her. We’ve put aside our past grievances and united against external threats." Patting Abe Waka on the head, Zhu Haomiao softly comforted her. Upon hearing it, Abe Waka gradually calmed down from her panic and fear, immediately realizing an even more terrifying problem. If the other party is indeed Amaterasu... Then, the one who gutted her... isn’t he... Shocked, she glanced at Zhu Haomiao’s face, nervously swallowing a gulp. Never heard of any Chinese God by that name? Could he be using a fake name? No, there’s a contract; the other party must be using their True Name! Vaguely guessing the girl’s thoughts, Zhu Haomiao chuckled and rubbed her head. "Stop overthinking, I’m just an ordinary mortal..." Saying this, Zhu Haomiao pinched his thumb and forefinger together, making a tiny gap. "With at most a tiny bit of extraordinary power, you don’t have to be overly afraid."
