Mahito paused for a moment, thinking: Human culture is so troublesome with all these different, indirect ways of saying things.

System: [...This really isn't the normal way humans speak!!]

As a newly born special-grade cursed spirit, Mahito had read quite a few human books and watched movies, learning various things about human society from them.

However, since he hadn't been around for long, many things were still unclear. To make it easier to manipulate humans in the future, Mahito often learned a bit more.

At that moment, to maintain his persona and get closer to the new toy he had chosen, Mahito quickly picked up this term.

In the silver-haired girl's gaze, he also responded with the meaning of [don't be formal, relax], and with a smile, he said, "Yeah, no worries, just have some Liu○mei."

System: [...Please stop learning, Mahito!]

Hearing Mahito's response, the silver-haired girl smiled faintly and skipped over to his side. The distance between them seemed to shrink, as if the gap between them had been reduced.

Chihori cheerfully spoke, "Let's go, Xiang Piaopiao."

"Sure, u.loveit." Real Man responded naturally.

System (mask of pain): [Really, really starting to run wild in strange directions! You two aren't some commercial in the middle of a TV show break!]

On the other side, not far away.

As a bounty hunter, Toji was currently in a VIP room on the second floor of a restaurant, taking on a bodyguard job—protecting a client, an old wealthy businessman with a bad temper and a lot of issues.

If it hadn't been for losing money in a gambling match recently, he wouldn't have taken on this troublesome client.

Speaking of the gambling match... Toji couldn't help but think back to the silver-haired girl. When she was around, he had won quite a few times.

Too bad the dogs at the nearby casinos were sharp-eyed. Once they caught wind of the girl's unique gambling ability, they secretly put her on a blacklist.

Toji himself was also on the blacklist because they usually entered the casinos together.

However, the casinos quickly checked the historical records and found that Toji was actually a terrible gambler, a big fat sheep, so they took him off the blacklist.

Toji: Heh.

Toji wasn't one to stick to rules. He had already made plans with Chihori to sneak into another casino in a more refined disguise next time, or even head to an underground casino in a nearby town.

The commission money from this job would let that girl lend a hand again, and it'd double his profit.

While idly thinking, Toji's gaze swept out the window, and sure enough, a familiar figure caught his eye, making him stop abruptly!

—It was the silver-haired girl and... a new cursed spirit?

Toji narrowed his eyes. From a distant alley with few people, he saw the blue-haired cursed spirit, divided into three parts, its face and hands stitched up, laughing as it spoke with the girl.

A cursed spirit capable of conversation seemed like a highly intelligent, high-grade cursed spirit.

Toji kept his gaze on them, making his judgment.

Then, for some unknown reason, whatever the cursed spirit said to the girl seemed to bring them closer together.

The silver-haired girl walked briskly, side by side with the blue-haired cursed spirit, as if they were going home together.

"..." Toji knew the silver-haired girl had above-average strength, but that didn't mean she could handle cursed spirits, especially high-level ones.

The scene earlier seemed peaceful, but Toji knew all too well that cursed spirits weren't friendly or inclined to make friends with humans.

Had the girl been deceived by the cursed spirit? Toji clicked his tongue. She was still such a young fool.

Back at the table, the troublesome old rich man started barking orders at Toji again, waving his fat hand around and shouting.

"Hey, you! The guy by the window! Come here and move those chairs to the other side, they're in my way, and those random decorations over there—take them all down..."

Before the old man could finish speaking, Toji unexpectedly reached up and slammed open the second-floor window!

The old rich man was startled by the sudden action, then his anger flared up. "Did I ask you to open the window!? I told you to move the chairs!! Are you deaf!?"

Toji casually picked at his ear with his pinky, his expression one of bored disdain, yet his words carried weight. "I was hired to protect your safety, not to help you move stuff."

He stood by the open window, the wind outside whipping his black hair, as Toji lazily lifted his eyelids.

"I've suddenly decided I don't want this job anymore, old man."

The rich man froze for a moment, then angrily slammed his hand down. "What's the meaning of this!? Are you backing out of the contract?? Can you afford the penalty fee, you poor bastard!!" He sneered. "You don't care about money that much?"

Toji's gaze fell on the street outside the window. The silver-haired girl and the cursed spirit had reached the end of the road, almost to the corner.

He didn't hesitate any longer. With a graceful leap, he landed on the window ledge, his strong arm propping himself up.

Toji gave one last glance at the enraged old man behind him.

"How could I not care about money?" He raised his scarred lips, his voice lazy yet steady. "It's exactly because I care... I still know when to enjoy a meal, and when to split it."

With that, he nimbly jumped down from the second-floor window.

Toji's speed, of course, was fast. With no cursed energy, he was almost like a transparent shadow—if he was careful enough, he wouldn't be noticed by the people or curses ahead of him.

But he didn't rush to do anything.

Toji remained calm. He was observing the cursed spirit not far ahead.

At least for now, his instincts told him that this cursed spirit didn't seem to have any intention of harming the silver-haired girl.

Moreover, the fact that the cursed spirit had led her home showed that this intelligent curse had more goals, not simply to kill humans.

Rushing in carelessly wasn't a good idea. Toji was better at choosing the most appropriate moment.

He silently followed from behind.

The special-grade cursed spirit with blue hair, divided into three sections, was in a good mood as it entered the girl's home. Everything was going so smoothly that it felt quite satisfying.
