Chapter 353 Hot Spring
Kayako sent me a photo.
The picture shows her holding an orange suspended in the air above her palm.
Kayako: Ache, I used the power I comprehended myself, and it was absolutely not tainted by any curses!
Jiuzhi Che: Who's so powerful? It's our Kayako!
Kayako, holding her phone, chuckled to herself.
The feeling of being recognized... is good no matter how many times you experience it.
Especially since that person was someone she loved.
Jiuzhiche: Don't overuse it. Your body can't handle too much power right now.
Kayako: Got it ෆ･ᴗ･ᵕ̈ෆ~
Kayako: Che, can I think of you while I sleep tonight?
Jiuzhiche: What do you think?
Kayako: No, is that not allowed?
Jiuzhiche: I must think about it. When you think of me, I'm definitely thinking of you too.
Kayako wished she could rush next door and pounce on him right now.
Finally, he simply leaned in and rubbed his face against the picture of Jiuzhi Che's abs that was the background image on his phone.
Kayako: I will always miss you.

There is a hot spring inn on Izu Oshima.
"Kubo, is your hot spring really that amazing?"
"Yes, Kubo, we've known each other for so many years. I saw the news reports about your family's hot spring. You can't keep it from us."
You look younger than before.
Several men in their fifties and sixties surrounded Kubo Kuki, asking him questions one after another.
Kubo Miku laughed, "We've been friends for so many years, I wouldn't lie to you. I've specially reserved a time slot for you today, just for you two!"
"Kubo, how do you know you can definitely dig a hot spring in your backyard?"
Yamamura asked curiously.
If I remember correctly, Kubo's wife initially had a specialist survey the area to stop his obsessive behavior, but the result was that no hot spring could be dug there at all.
But Kubo no Kō listened to him, and now he has actually unearthed a hot spring.
Kubo Kuki was still smiling, but there was a stiffness in his smile: "It was here that told me."
He pointed to his head and led everyone into the house.
"It's almost time, you should go change your clothes."
A pedestrian walkway leads past the lobby, where some customers wearing yukatas sit quietly.
Yamamura Kei gave them a strange look.
Why is it so quiet?
No one was talking, not even making any physical movements; it was as if... no one was breathing...
Yamamura Kei was startled by his own thoughts.
Perhaps because of his previous experience of becoming an Earthbound Being, he is sometimes subconsciously more sensitive.
After they left, all the "quiet" guests suddenly turned around and stared intently in the direction Yamamura Kei and his companions had gone.
"People say I don't imitate humans well, but I imitate them very well, and no one has noticed anything unusual."
"It'll only take a few days to adjust; we haven't been to the human world for far too long."
"I've adapted, but having to wear a layer of skin is very uncomfortable."
"Stop talking, do you want humans to hear you?"
After a moment of silence, the lobby fell silent again.
After changing into his yukata, Yamamura Kei turned around and caught sight of Kubo Kuji's stiff smile. He was startled: "Kubo, why are you smiling like that lately?"
"I'm so happy to have accomplished such a major life event."
"All right."
Yamamura Kei felt that something was amiss.
The group went to the hot spring in the backyard together.
Upon arrival, everyone was stunned to see a person standing in front of the hot spring with their back to them.
"Look, the hot spring flowers are blooming."
It was a soft male voice, and everyone instinctively looked over.
The calm surface of the hot spring water suddenly began to churn, with ripples spreading upwards from the depths and splashing up on the surface.
"You're all sleepy in the steamy hot spring."
As soon as the words were spoken, everyone collapsed to the ground and fell into a deep sleep.
Kubo tried to open his eyes, but after a couple of attempts, he couldn't resist the drowsiness.
It couldn't be easier for Jiu Zhiche to get into the hotel.
If it weren't for the opportune timing of their arrival today, Yamamura Kei and the others would have been replaced.
The demons that come here through the crevice beneath the hot spring will disguise themselves in human skin, waiting for the day they will launch a full-scale invasion.
According to Jiu Zhiche's observation, demons who don human skin will have a period of silence, which is a time for them to adapt to the human skin and seize memories.
Kubo was bewitched by a demon many years ago, but he is still human.
The demon needs a human to dig a hot spring in this special location, but only because the "correction" will not affect humans.
Jiuzhiche sensed something unusual about this place, but he didn't know exactly what was unusual about it.
Perhaps the power of "correction" is weakest here, or perhaps this place was once a passage between hell and the human world.
"Purify".
Jiuzhi Che cast a purification spell on Jiubao Zhu, and the bewitching effect on him instantly dissipated.
Meanwhile, somewhere thousands of miles away, a middle-aged man with gray hair suddenly opened his eyes.
"My curse has been broken!"
Gerald's expression darkened, and he almost immediately thought of the demons' common enemy—Jiuzhi Che.
Then came the concern about the cracks.
If it really is Jiuzhi Cheqian, who knows if he will destroy the rift! Does he even have the ability to destroy the rift?
It tends to have
"Chitan! You're fast, get to Izu Oshima now..."
Aze Qiantan, who was building with blocks, suddenly jerked his hand, and the blocks scattered all over the ground.
She glared resentfully at Gerald behind the door.
They keep asking her to do things, but she only wants to be a spy, not an undercover agent!
Spies only need to pass on messages, but undercover agents have to both do the work and pass on messages!
"receive."
At such a young age, he's already learned how to appease his superiors.
Aze Qiantan set off immediately, and she was very proactive!
There are so many delicious foods along the way, let's eat something to tide us over.

Jiuzhiche dived into the depths of the hot spring. The hot spring was not deep, but it had a springhead. Jiuzhiche dug a large hole as he dived.
After diving at least several thousand meters, Jiuzhiche finally saw a faint dark light, which was the crack.
To be honest, we can't destroy it directly; we can only try to contact them for corrections first.
Jiuzhi Che focused his mind, trying to establish communication with "correction".
Twenty minutes later, Jiuzhiche finally regained a sliver of consciousness to make corrections. The message it conveyed was that it needed a massive amount of energy to repair the cracks.
"Will mental power suffice?"
The revised reply says yes.
The feeling of having a large amount of mental energy depleted is unpleasant, especially when the energy is absorbed very quickly and in large quantities.
Jiuzhiche used a time-limited mental energy buff to barely keep up with the rate of energy consumption.
The mental strength scale increased from 19 to 30.
That's already a very good growth.
After being pumped for 10 minutes, the crack in front of Jiuzhiche's eyes grew smaller and smaller until it closed completely.
Thank you.
The revised response conveyed a vague meaning.
Jiuzhiche returned to the inn, killed all the demons still there, and then left.
I received 30% spirituality and 20% initial spirituality, plus 3 chances to win a prize.
The next day.
Jiuzhiche went to school.
He's been working non-stop lately, so he needs to take a short break, which means going to school.
Upon arriving at the school gate, Jiuzhiche looked up at the sky.
A strong sense of foreboding permeated the air above the campus.
