Chapter 89: A Visit to Sayu and Misaki-senpai

"No more." Shiina Mahiru gasped, pushing Renji's chest with her small hands, her face feigning resentment, but her eyes radiating genuine exhaustion. "Don't come near me, idiot!"

Renji Kamisaka couldn't help but offer a clumsy smile, yet it was full of affection. "Mahiru, I like you, how about... a little longer? Just a little longer!" His voice pleaded, laced with teasing.

"It's no use being slick!" Mahiru retorted, her beautiful eyes glaring. "You don't appreciate me!"

Renji had no choice but to give in. "Of course I appreciate you, isn't it enough for me to listen to you?"

"Hmph, you still dare to say that." Shiina Mahiru couldn't resist pinching his waist with her pale hands, yet her body leaned weakly into his embrace, indicating that her protest was only on the surface. "Mashiro lit the fire, go see her and sort it out!"

"Uh... little Mashiro is as pure as a blank sheet of paper," Renji said, guilt flashing across his face. "How can I take advantage of her? If she grows up and blames me, I'll feel guilty."

Shiina Mahiru rolled her eyes, her expression amused. "If she doesn't understand, can't you just teach her?"

Renji Kamisaka could only offer an awkward smile. He had already started teaching.

Shiina Mahiru looked at him with lingering resentment, feeling a little sympathy for his plight, so she said, "Have you become even stronger? If not, go find Sayu and Misaki-senpai."

"Alright." Renji Kamisaka was naturally very touched by Mahiru's concern. So he hugged her tightly.

Shiina Mahiru was stunned, her eyes wide. "Why are you taking me with you?"

Renji Kamisaka smiled wickedly, a knowing smile. "What are you thinking?"

Shiina Mahiru's cheeks burned, and she shook her head quickly. "Idiot, let me rest, I have class tomorrow." She was naturally happy her boyfriend liked her. But her boyfriend was too strong, and she couldn't take it. He was completely inhuman.

Renji Kamisaka was a little reluctant, but seeing Mahiru's tired expression. Shiina Mahiru saw his expression and couldn't help but let out a small laugh. She gently leaned in and kissed his cheek. "Alright, don't fixate on me, we have plenty of time in the future." She wouldn't leave Sakurasou. Why bother bothering her so much? Besides, she really couldn't do it anymore. If it happened again, she would roll her eyes and faint.

"Alright, then Mahiru, you should rest well." Renji Kamisaka also kissed her delicate face, and then reluctantly put her down.

Looking at Renji Kamisaka's back disappearing behind the door, Shiina Mahiru felt both embarrassed and annoyed at her cousin, Mashiro. This anger had to be borne by Mashiro herself.

Renji Kamisaka's arrival made Sayu Ogiwara very happy. Although she was also a beautiful girl, compared to Mahiru and the others, she still felt a little inferior in her heart. She was afraid Renji Kamisaka wouldn't like her someday. But clearly, he didn't do that. Instead, he came to find her again.

However, she, like Mahiru, immediately noticed his change. There was no other way. In the end, she could only bring along Misaki-senpai, who was fast asleep.

Midnight had passed. Misaki Kamiigusa was already sound asleep. Should he say she was heartless or natural? Renji wondered. She truly had no defenses at all. But the person who came was Renji Kamisaka, so she didn't need to be on guard. This was also a manifestation of trust in Renji.

Sayu blushed, lying in Renji Kamisaka's embrace, with a slight smile on her lips. "Hey, Renji, how did you suddenly become stronger again?"

"It's probably due to Miss Frieren's magic experiment. I received a special Dragon's Baptism when I opened the treasure chest, so my body became even stronger." Renji Kamisaka didn't hide anything from Sayu about the two mages, Frieren and Fern. After all, Sayu was his wholeheartedly, so there was no need to hide it.

"So that's how it is... Then, do you have feelings for Miss Frieren and Miss Fern?" Sayu asked, her tone attentive.

"Eh... I can't say I don't have any feelings at all." Renji answered honestly.

"Hehe, I'll help you." Sayu Ogiwara expressed her stance with a smile, her cheeks flushing.

Renji Kamisaka couldn't help but touch her hair with emotion, appreciating Sayu's understanding. "Sayu, you'll be able to go to school with us soon, get ready."

Sayu Ogiwara's body trembled, her expression changing slightly. Seeing this, Renji Kamisaka asked with concern, "Why, are you worried about your mother and brother?"

"Yes." The girl nodded dejectedly, her gaze dimming. "I've been away from home for so long, I really don't know what they'll say about me when we meet."

Renji Kamisaka was silent for a moment, then lowered his head and kissed her forehead. "No matter what they think, we're just going there to get your ID and transfer your student status." He hugged her more tightly. "Sakurasou will always be your home, so no matter what you choose, I will support you."

Ogiwara Sayu held his hand, placing it on his chest, and smiled faintly. "I won't go back to that home." Her voice was steady. "After all, no one there trusted me at all. I feel that my existence is similar to Mahiru's situation at home." She sighed. "Even if I go back, I'll just keep facing suspicious eyes."

Renji Kamisaka smiled and hugged her tightly. "What if your mother shows that she cares about you? Where in this world is there a mother who doesn't care about her daughter? People always learn to cherish after they lose something."

"There really are people like Mahiru's mother, and mine too." Ogiwara Sayu pouted, looking at Renji with a confident expression. "Don't worry, I won't leave you. Even if she truly shows her concern for me, I won't be moved." She smiled bitterly. "Delayed affection is cheaper than anything."

"Your mouth is good." Renji Kamisaka poked her cheek with a smile, admiring her firmness.

"Hehe, I've always been very perceptive, otherwise, could you have won over Mahiru so quickly?" Ogiwara Sayu was slightly proud, her expression bright.

"Yes, yes, thank you for your support, Sayu-sama. In that case, allow me to thank you." Renji said, his tone playful.

"Well... goodbye, I don't want any more. Otherwise... you can go find Mahiru again. She should be fine after a rest." Sayu said shyly, gently pushing him.

Shiina Mahiru: "Thank you!"

Renji Kamisaka finally left to find Mahiru. Of course, he didn't bully anyone. He just carried the angel and slept.

The next morning, the angel awoke in Renji Kamisaka's arms, her cheeks flushing crimson with embarrassment. She was naturally glad Renji came back to see her last night. She actually liked acting spoiled. So, just like now, leaning in Renji's embrace, she would feel very warm. Warm in her heart. She experienced all the love her parents had never given her from Renji Kamisaka.

Raising her jade-like fingers, she gently poked Renji's cheek. "It's time to wake up, Mr. Renji Kamisaka."

"It's still early, sleep a little longer, Miss Shiina." Renji mumbled, still half-conscious.

"Okay." She rested her cheek against Renji's chest with a clear conscience, and couldn't help but rub it, seeking warmth. This warmth was an embrace. She greedily wanted to experience it longer.

At breakfast, Mai Sakurajima looked at him with disgust, her expression clear. Renji Kamisaka ignored her. Anyway, once you enter Sakurasou, don't think about leaving. Besides, with Mai Sakurajima's current condition, she wouldn't be able to survive if she left here. Renji Kamisaka wasn't in a hurry.

"You guys eat first, I'll go call Mashiro down." Renji said to the others. If no one called her, she would sleep all the time. She was truly like a pet.

Renji Kamisaka went to the third floor, knocked on the door as usual, called a few times, and then entered the room. No matter how familiar you are, you still have to be polite. Pushing the door open and looking at the room. The table was full of scattered drawings. Fortunately, Mashiro didn't draw "his things." She only drew his body. Renji saw the male protagonist in Mashiro's comic, a six-pack abs... Renji Kamisaka couldn't help but smile amusedly and woke Mashiro who was curled up in bed.

Then he pulled out pink lace underwear from the drawer. Mashiro actually had something like this. It was probably prepared for her by Rita. He also saw purple ones. No, I can't look anymore. Otherwise, I'll get angry again. After experiencing the Dragon's Baptism, his impulses became stronger. He still had to adjust and let his body adapt. Otherwise, if he got angry in a certain scene, it would be socially fatal.
