Chapter 18: The End of the Date

Of course that would be impossible, after all, if he had 10,000 girlfriends, and dated three girlfriends a day, each of them could only see him every ten years, which was way too outrageous.

"What about you, senpai? What are you going to buy at the supermarket?" Iroha asked curiously.

"I'm gonna buy some ingredients for dinner." Shido responded casually.

"Mayuri's homemade food?" Umaru asked with bright eyes, not knowing what it had to do with her.

"No, I'm going to cook for her tonight!" Shido shook his head and said.

"Really?" Umaru looked at Shido in disbelief, but considering his gentle attitude towards his girlfriend, it was not surprising that he would make dinner for his girlfriend himself.

"Of course it's true, why would I lie to you?" Shido said angrily.

"Sure enough, I want you to take care of me!" Umaru said sincerely.

"Go away!" Shido gently pushed the other party away, then glanced at Mayuri next to him, and he was relieved to see that she didn't mind.

After all, it was his first date with Mayuri, so it would be bad if he gave her a bad impression.

Mayuri smiled. Although she didn't know what the situation was, it was very normal for Shido to be popular with girls when she thought of the handsome side of Shido, and Shido's direct rejection made her very satisfied.

"Why don't senpai take care of me too! I'm willing to provide you with various services, such as massages..." Iroha said seductively, approaching Shido.

"You're not that kind of girl! It's better not to blurt out such things." Shido said calmly.

"Really? Senpai is so stiff." Iroha turned around with a little blushing, it was unexpected that Shido would take her so seriously.

"It's almost time, if there's nothing else, we will go home now." Shido said softly, threatening the two with a stern gaze at the same time. His hidden message was clear: Do not disturb me. Whatever you have in mind, we will talk about it tomorrow!

Iroha and Umaru could only nod their heads helplessly, and then left hastily.

"Why did you intimidate girls like that!?" Mayuri seemed to be somewhat dissatisfied.

"It's not that..." Shido smiled awkwardly.

"Forget it, let's finish shopping and go home." Mayuri didn't say much. She knew that Shido did this because he wanted to spend more time with her alone, and to be honest. She was quite happy about it.

After returning home, Shido started to make dinner. Today's time passed by very fast, probably because of his mood. The date with Mayuri made him so excited that he couldn't come back to his senses now.

Even so, he was able to prepare the burger meat properly. Mayuri helped him with some other simple procedures, and the two were happy. They truly felt like newlyweds!

When the food was finished, they laid it on the table excitedly. The aroma, texture, flavors, aesthetics...

"Thanks for the food!" X2

Mayuri ate Shido's food with satisfaction. This was her dream life, and it finally came true.

After dinner, the two sat quietly on the sofa, watching random TV channels and chatting about recent events.

Of course, the topic was mainly on Shido, since Mayuri was absent from his life and didn't know much about his developments. So, Shido began to chat about his own affairs.

What he said at the beginning was naturally a matter of time-travel. In fact, Mayuri still didn't know what happened, only that Shido came to this world alone.

"To summarize..." Shido explained to the other party in detail, including the matter of Rio.

"In other words, the god named Rio brought you into this world?" Mayuri nodded thoughtfully.

"And that's about it." Shido said with a smile.

"Then I guess she likes you." Mayuri said after thinking about it.

"How is that possible?" Shido shook his head, this was impossible, after all, the other party was a little girl!

"Nothing is impossible. Humans like you, Spirits like you, and so can little girls!" Mayuri smirked.

"I don't believe it, and I have never seen her before, so there's no way." Shido shook his head again. He knew Mayuri was messing around, but he didn't plan on playing along.

"Yeah, that would be so weird." Mayuri said with a chuckle. "However, there is one thing that concerns me…"

"What is it?" Shido asked curiously.

"The other girl with her…is Rinne?" Mayuri looked up at Shido in a serious expression.

"Yeah, she's Rio's mother..." Shido said helplessly. If this was the case, he didn't know how to react.

"I didn't know Rinne had a daughter." Mayuri laughed suddenly.

"You know about her?" Shido asked in surprise, standing up on instinct.

"Yes, Rinne is just like me, an extra Spirit created by the Spirit of Origin!" Mayuri held out her lilac finger and pointed it upwards. "She's born to love you, just like me~"

Shido was flabbergasted by the breaking news, unable to make a response for a while. He suddenly felt a headache, as if trying really hard to remember the girl mentioned, but it seemed unsuccessful,

The atmosphere was silent in the Itsuka Household.

"Well, that's everything I know about her." Mayuri shook her head in shame. "After all, I only know her existence, but I don't know what happened between you two."

"It's okay, I guess it will take time to remember her…" Shido smiled, and quickly kissed Mayuri. Before she could respond, he had returned to his original position.'

Blushing deeply, Mayuri covered her kissed lips and stomped her cute feet.

"I didn't expect you to become like this, Shido." Mayuri lowered her head, pouting. "I used to think you were the meek type, but now you have become such a pervert!"

Although she said it like that, she didn't dislike it one bit since it was Shido's behavior.

"Sorry, but you're too cute, and I saw you were a little upset, so I wanted to cheer you up." Shido held out his hands in defense. When he saw that Mayuri wasn't mad at him, he smiled in relief and hugged her gently.

Mayuri leaned against his chest, purring like a kitten. Shido caressed her silky hair smoothly, smelling her violet aroma and kissing her fair forehead.

After a while, Shido felt a certain urge growing in his stomach and moved his right hand toward her plump breasts, giving them a loving squeeze!

"Ya..." Mayuri felt her body become a little weak from his bold actions. Although feeling good from his touch, she pushed him away.

It was not that she hated what her lover was gonna do to her, but because she didn't want him to mistake her as a casual girl, she wanted him to take things slowly.

Shido understood Mayuri's feelings, so he did not continue to do anything. He was willing to give the other party more time. In fact, he was so patient with his girls that he still hadn't crossed the final line with a handful of them yet.

"Can you tell me more about those Spirits?" Mayuri asked softly. Although she was a Spirit, she didn't know some of them very well. When she was first revived, she didn't know how to interact with Natsumi, Origami, Nia, and Mukuro.

Therefore, Mayuri was very interested to know about Shido's interaction with those girls, especially how he conquered their hearts.

So, Shido briefly introduced the Spirits she was unfamiliar with, including Mio, to Mayuri. In fact, the Spirits were all kind-hearted girls, and there should be no major problems in getting along with them.

Of course, there were Spirits who were super jealous like Mukuro, but Shido had his own unique method of dealing with them.

"Thank you, Shido!" Mayuri said suddenly looking at Shido very sincerely.

"What happened all of a sudden? You and I don't have to be so formal..." Shido touched Mayuri's head gently.

"It's nothing." Mayuri shook her head, then took the initiative to kiss Shido, expressing her gratitude and admiration.

"You..." Shido was stunned, and then the feeling of happiness came spontaneously. This was probably the feeling of passionate love!

"You did this to me, so why can't I?" Mayuri said innocently.

"Of course it's fine, you are welcome to do it a few more times!" Shido said with a smirk, licking his lips and tasting her scent.

"Pervert! I won't do this again..." Mayuri turned her face away, knowing that she had exhausted all her resolve just now, it would take a while before she could try that again.

Shido enjoyed this time very much. He was with the person he liked and chatted quietly about the things around him. This kind of feeling was really blissful.

But such time cannot last forever, like Cinderella's magic, which always had to be unraveled at midnight.

Although he was very reluctant, Shido had no choice. Although Mayuri had just been resurrected, she was also a Spirit. Like other girls, the Spirits could only stay in this world for one day.

"Goodbye, Shido." Mayuri said with a light smile.

"..." Shido didn't know what to say, and felt very uncomfortable, just like when he suddenly came to this world and didn't know if he could see his beloved Spirits.

But this time, he believed there would be no problem. Since Mayuri had been resurrected, there would naturally be a chance to see her again in the future. At most, it would take a little longer.

At the same time, Shido wanted to negotiate with Rio and Rinne even more, because in his opinion, he needed them to bring all the Spirits into this world, or allow him to return to the original world. As long as she was willing to help, Shido could always spend more time with his girlfriends.

"Don't be so sad, isn't Mukuro coming? You are still accompanied by cute girls..." Mayuri smiled softly and said, seeing that Shido didn't speak, she thought he was in a bad mood, so she quickly opened her mouth to comfort him.

"But in my opinion, you are all unique. Your departure will make me sad, and her arrival will make me happy. These are two different feelings, and they cannot cancel each other out." Shido said in a low voice, In fact, Mayuri's guess was correct, he was indeed in a relatively normal mood.

"Good, Shido looks better when he smiles..." Mayuri hugged Shido lightly, then tipped her toes and kissed Shido on the lips. Once wasn't enough for either of them, so they made the second one.

Each kiss only endeared them more to one another; a soft moan fleeing Mayuri's lips when kissing him with growing vigor, pouring her love for him into every kiss and wordlessly earning kisses in return, their lips constantly mashing together with a passion neither had felt up until that moment.

Mayuri's body started glowing in particles of light, and disappeared into the void. Shido knew that she must have returned to the world over there.

For some reason, the particles of light surrounding her figure were not in the color of gold, but pink.

Shido raised a smile, patted his face, and cheered up. Mayuri said that she wanted him to be happy and smile more, so he naturally couldn't turn it down.

By the way, Mayuri's way of coaxing him felt like coaxing a child, but oddly he didn't mind either.

…

Am I …back?

Slowly opening her eyes, Mayuri saw herself on top of the Fuji Mountain.

What is this place?

Mayuri started examining the surroundings, and found a hut nearby. In front of its door, there stood a girl with pink hair, intense pink eyes, and slender figure. Her Astral Dress took on the appearance of a purple clock with golden extensions on her shoulders and hips. The vast majority of her face was covered by a veil. At the top of her head, there was a decorated headdress with a golden emblem at the center.

"Hello, Mayuri-san. It's nice to finally meet you in person." The girl greeted politely and held out her fair hand. "My name is Rinne Sonogami."

"Rinne?" Mayuri was surprised, holding out her hand as well. "Nice to meet you, Rinne-san."

The two Spirits shook hands politely with a smile.

"Nice to meet you, Mayuri-san."

The third person appeared from behind the door. It was a little girl with plum hair, and she had an easy-going smile on her cute little face.

"Oh, this is my daughter, Rio." Rinne smiled as she introduced her daughter to Mayuri. "She's very eager to meet you."

"The pleasure is mine, Rio-chan." Mayuri knelt down and smiled as she looked at Rio in the same eye level. Then, she flocked a golden hair behind her ears and asked:

"Mind explaining to me why Shido is in this world?"

Mayuri asked with a smile.

"Gladly, and…"

Rinne took off her veil, revealing her silky pink hair.

"We will help you reactivate your Angel, along with its special abilities."

Saying that, she handed Mayuri a tiny black sphere-like object. It had a pair of wings attached to its back, a huge eye in the middle of its body, and tremendous amount of energy on its surface.

"Kerubiel..."

Mayuri murmured in a shocked tone.

A/N:

That's enough Mayuri for now, but she will be back in the future for important things. Hope you enjoy Mayuri's character :)
