"Four stars?"
Snow Woman shook her head, "Father should promote Ghost, Ghost is the mainstay of the family."
"Sister Yuki-onna," the hair-eating demon continued after taking a drag of his cigarette, "if you don't level up to four stars, I won't level up to four stars either!"
The hair-eating demon, who had been calm and collected for a long time, suddenly revealed his childish side, leaving both the black-clad ghost and the judge staring at him blankly.
"Ghost, be good."
"No way! Humph!"
The atmosphere became deadlocked for a moment.
"Hey, who's in charge here?"
Qiu Shui pretended to be angry and asked.
"Father."
"Of course it's my father."
They answered in unison.
"Since it's me, your lives and deaths are in my hands. I'll tell you to advance to four stars, so you have to obey, right?"
"..."
There was a moment of silence in front of the door.
"Come, Snow Woman, ascend to star level."
Qiu Shui made no preparations for her, but directly set up an upgraded magic circle, chanting complex incantations. Three three-star Bodhidharma mascots spun around her, increasing her demonic power.
The snow woman floated silently in the air, while the hair-eating demon beside her removed its eye patch and smiled happily as it watched her demonic power continuously increase.
"Fool, what are you laughing at? You should be the one who gets promoted first."
"The snow woman said helplessly."
"No way! The things in the guild are so troublesome every day! I don't have time to take care of my hair, and it's all dull. If I get promoted to four stars, I'll definitely be in charge of all this. I don't want to worry about so many things. Snow Maiden, you're not allowed to slack off!"
The hair-eating demon spoke righteously, and the snow woman's expression finally softened.
"You lazybones."
Qiu Shui cursed him in dissatisfaction, but the Hair-Eating Ghost was not annoyed and put on his blindfold, standing aside.
"With my father and Snow Woman by my side, I'm living a carefree life~"
"You can't stay idle any longer. From now on, you'll be in charge of Guishi Hei, the Judge, the Girl in the Box, and Futakuchi-onna every day!"
Qiu Shui assigned him a task.
The hair-eating demon looked down at the few tiny creatures beside him who weren't even as tall as his waist, and sighed helplessly, "What a nuisance."
"Their hair is beautiful."
Jue casually remarked.
"It's not good-looking; it barely has any hair."
The hair-eating demon seemed disgusted, with two strands of beautiful hair wrapped around its wrist, one white and one blue.
"Actually, Jue, you're very pretty too, if only your personality were a little better..."
"Tch! Kid, shut up!"
Dissatisfied, she walked away. Yingcao smiled awkwardly, went up to her, and called her back.
"brush--"
"Congratulations to player '秋水伊人'! Your shikigami Yuki Onna has been upgraded to four stars. The system will give you a three-star drum barrier card."
I have an extra lamp wick in my hand, with a picture of a three-star drum on it, which will be explained later.
After upgrading the Snow Woman, Qiu Shui carefully read the descriptions and exclaimed in surprise, "This barrier card can generate magatama!"
"What?"
The snow woman floated down in front of her and was delighted to see the red barrier card; it was practically free money.
"A great start! Today is a good day. I'm sure to have some good things happen if I go to the shrine today."
-
Upon entering the shrine, they found Onmyoji (yin-yang masters) everywhere. Qiushui led them to the fragment exchange area, where they exchanged some special silver coins for a few fragments of the Cat Shopkeeper.
She was delighted that an Onmyoji was willing to trade with her, and she generously gave away the fragments she had.
The snow woman watching from behind: "..."
Dad is making a losing business again!
After exchanging the fragments, Shusui noticed a new claw machine in the corner of the shrine, filled with various cute shikigami plush toys.
She couldn't resist walking over to the claw machine. Inside were dolls she recognized and didn't, but she especially loved one that was glittering gold and pink.
What kind of shikigami is this?
This is the first time Qiushui has ever been so obsessed with a shikigami. He is so cute, with a pink kimono and a little dragon on his body. I must get him today!
Ten gold coins per time.
The first time, the claw fell down when it was still quite a distance from the doll!
"What bad luck."
With a muttered sound, he started the next round of grabbing. This time he caught it, but the doll fell off halfway and didn't land in his mouth.
"How could this be?"
Qiu Shui was a little angry and tried to grab the toy about ten more times, but still couldn't win. Just then, the Black Water Beauty walked over and came over when she saw Qiu Shui playing the toy game.
"I can't grab it! It's so frustrating!"
"I'll give it a try."
The black water beauty was eager to try, but the result was—failure.
"ah……"
"It still doesn't work! Is this some kind of money-grabbing swindler's tool?!"
“Mumm…”
Just then, Qiushui called out to him as Sushi Kungfu walked by.
"Sushi, is this from a shrine?"
