Chapter 582: Sisters reconciling, still have to rely on Fujiwara Lin Ye...
"Sorry, I’m late..."
In the darkness, Kasahara Asuka’s vision was blurry, and she didn’t understand the situation at the moment.
It wasn’t until her senior’s hands gently cupped her cheeks, warming them like a furnace, that she roughly realized what was happening.
"It’s okay now..." Fujiwara Reya rubbed her cheeks.
Her eyelashes fluttered, and the girl’s stiff body softened as she slowly opened her eyes.
Fujiwara Reya used his demonic power to warm her body and said, "Luckily, I have good hearing; I heard the commotion from far away."
Kasahara Asuka was stunned for a moment, then spoke with a slightly hoarse voice, "I need to find my sister and mom..."
"Alright, I’ll take you there now..." As he spoke, the sounds of battle continued to rumble, and Fujiwara Reya stood up holding her, "Hey, don’t move, I’ll carry you over..."
Kasahara Asuka was originally planning to walk on her own, but when he said that, she stayed still.
Finally relaxing, she leaned against Fujiwara Reya and took a bite of the baguette in her hand.
It was hard, but delicious.
As they passed through the kitchen, Kasahara Asuka saw a beautiful Spider Lady weaving a giant web, blocking all the ghosts in the passageway.
"Miki, let’s go." Fujiwara Reya called out.
Kawashima Miki turned her head and glanced at the slightly weakened girl.
She said nothing, simply walking quickly on her eight legs to Fujiwara Reya’s side, then crouched down in front of him.
Fujiwara Reya paused in surprise.
"The passage ahead is blocked; we have to go outside." Kawashima Miki replied blandly.
How to go outside?
Of course, by riding on her.
"Love you, Miss Miki!"
Fujiwara Reya, holding Kasahara Asuka, excitedly jumped onto her back.
He squeezed his legs, pressing tightly against her fluffy, soft, and warm side.
Previously, not only would she not have let him ride her, but even transforming into Luo Xinfu in front of him would have been something Mrs. Miki would never agree to. Yet in a troublesome situation like now, she unhesitatingly allowed him to climb atop her, which is one of the many lovable traits of Mrs. Miki.
Kawashima Miki turned her head to look at him, raising an eyebrow, "Holding a beautiful girl and saying you love me?"
"Don’t be jealous at a time like this." Fujiwara Reya said, laughing awkwardly.
Kawashima Miki gave him a cold look and stood motionless in the passage.
Kasahara Asuka blinked.
The spider web behind them was about to break; if they didn’t leave now, they’d be swamped by the ghosts.
Fujiwara Reya had to say again, "Love you, Mrs. Miki!"
Only then did Kawashima Miki snort haughtily.
With a swift kick of her eight legs, she crashed through the window with them on her back, plunging toward the sea.
Amidst the storm, the sea swelled tumultuously.
Fujiwara Reya shielded Kasahara Asuka completely with his body, preventing the rain and waves from drenching her.
Three fishing boats tightly bound to the cruise ship continued firing, gunshots echoing fiercely, the sounds of bullets and rockets shaking the entire area.
Kasahara Asuka gritted her teeth.
By now, she finally understood a little — this cruise ship had become a battlefield.
In their rapid descent, Kawashima Miki flicked her palm backward.
A strand of spider silk shot out, wrapping around the railing of the upper deck, which she then pulled.
A few moments later, the three of them stood on the deck where the banquet hall was located.
The brightly lit banquet hall was somewhat messy, but the battle hadn’t reached here. The guests had evacuated to a safe place, leaving behind a group of fully armed agents from the Ninth Division guarding the room.
Kasahara Fumi, looking anxious, saw her sister, and let out a deep breath.
Fujiwara Reya handed the girl to her, then walked around the banquet hall.
He found a coffee pot still filled with warm coffee, a piece of cake, and a coat left by some lady. Holding these things, he approached the Kasahara sisters huddled together.
The sounds of gunfire, voices, wind, and rain never ceased.
The crystal chandelier overhead flickered on and off due to power interruptions.
"...I just woke up, and the ship was in chaos. I had no idea what was happening. I hadn’t eaten all day, and my stomach was growling... So I went out to find food and got stopped by a group of ghosts from Yomi Country in the corridor... I didn’t take anything with me when I went out, planning to brawl with the ghost. Luckily, my sister’s men appeared and took me through another route... As the number of ghosts increased on the way, when I hid in a kitchen, I ran into two Ghost Clan members... I got shoved into a freezer, it was so cold and dark..."
Her younger sister snuggled obediently in her sister’s arms, whispering about her recent ordeal.
Fujiwara Reya crouched down, draping the coat over her shoulders, and poured a cup of coffee.
Holding her sister with one hand, Kasahara Fumi reached out to take the coffee, her gaze solemn yet gentle towards him, "Thank you..."
On the chilly autumn rainy night, the warm coffee wafted its enticing aroma. If the dangers outside were ignored, this scene would seem warm enough to make one want to fall asleep here.
Returning to human form, Kawashima Miki also leaned over, and they rested here for a moment.
Kasahara Fumi held the coffee cup, feeding her sister a few sips.
The girl’s previously icy hands and cheeks gradually warmed up.
The hard baguette was tossed aside, while the rich, creamy cake was consumed. Kasahara Asuka’s complexion regained its rosy hue. She wrapped her arms around her sister’s neck, nuzzling her sister’s cheek with her own: "Where’s mom?"
