Chapter 181: A Delayed Visit

On their way to Kyoto, Meru talked to Kyle's family since this was a rare opportunity to talk to them, and leave a good impression, however, she was wary of Nobu, since their first meeting wasn't pleasant at all.

Nobu didn't care about her at all, because right now her attention is in the bus window, she was looking at the buildings outside. This was the first time she rode a bus actually, and was curious about it, seeing that Kyle was reminded of Lucoa when she first rode a bus. 

This was also Rin's first time, and her expression was way more interesting than Nobu's. She was looking at every corner of the bus, if you look closely at her eyes you could see a spark, she was just excited by this experience.

Emroy actually didn't want to follow them, but she was 'forced' by Shizuka to come, this feat might look nothing, but it's seriously impressive, not everyone could make a Goddess helplessly agree, if you're curious how Shizuka made her come, it's pretty simple, she said that she would turn off the wifi so that she wouldn't be able to watch anime.

When Emroy heard that, she felt like her world crumbled, maybe her watching anime made her an airhead, she instantly agreed to follow them, but with a condition that she would watch anime on their way to Kyoto.

Tohru didn't care about anything, she just wanted to be at Kyle's side, which she did, she sat right next to Kyle, making it her territory she even made a small barrier enough to cover their seats, and its restriction was if anyone sat there they would burn into crisp, anyone who knew this couldn't help but look at her strangely.

They weren't planning to sit down in that spot in the first place since there is no way that they wanted to provoke this yandere dragon.

Elma on the other hand was daydreaming of eating the best sweets of Kyoto, thinking that she couldn't help but salivate, and to avoid anyone seeing her disgraceful appearance, she quickly wipes the saliva on her mouth, but little did she know that everyone saw her, knew exactly what she thought of just now.

They all thought 'What a glutton!' 

As for Kanna, although this isn't her first time riding this kind of transportation, this was her first time going to Kyoto, as the youngest (at least her appearance is) she was the most curious among them all, her attention was fixed outside the bus, admiring whatever building she saw.

Lucoa has been to Kyoto countless times because she's a dragon that likes traveling all the time. The only reason why she followed them is that she didn't want to be left alone.

Shizuka vacation was supposed to be done, however, due to the fact that her brother and lover, really bought half of the property of the company that she'd been working at, she doesn't know how did her bought half the company property, but for sure she's his boss now, since he holds the highest share of the company, basically if he wanted he could make her not work at all.

But she wasn't like that, she didn't want to abuse her brother's power, so after this trip, she'll go back to America and start working again, though she won't miss her beloved brother much since they could see every day if they wanted to since both of them knows how to make a portal.

They could teleport anywhere in the world if they like, though Shizuka could only teleport once a day since it would drain all of her mana.

Hina wasn't supposed to be here at all, she has a lot of work to do, however, all of sudden her boss said that she should take a vacation for an entire week there is no way her boss was that kind to her for no reason at all, there must be something behind all of this, she had a hunch but there wasn't any proof at all, she locked her gaze toward her nephew, her guts is telling her that he had to do with this.

But then again, it's just her guts and no proof at all, but little did she know that Kyle bought the company that she'd been working at yesterday without anyone knowing, if she knew this she would surely complain about it.

But the problem is she doesn't, and Kyle won't tell her about it, because he knows her very well. Hina is a very responsible person and doesn't like any shortcuts, anyway, his plans for her are quite simple, slowly promoting her until she becomes a CEO in that company, he bought for her sake.

Saturday morning, 

Exactly 9 hours they arrived in Kyoto, after that they went to the hotel that Meru booked for the entire company. It was a 5-star hotel and it wasn't cheap, however, Meru didn't care about any of that, to her the more expensive the place is the better it is.

Inside the hotel, people are waiting for them, they are the staffs of this company, they have been waiting for them to arrive, the staff greeted them and help them bring their things toward their respective room, since they were the first batch of people to arrive here, they get to choose rooms they wanted.

Since within the next few hours, the employees of their company will arrive, everyone took their time choosing rooms, and most of them chose the best rooms in this hotel, while they didn't think about anything. Hina was calculating how much Meru spent booking this entire hotel, after her calculations, she got to know that. Meru spent more than 9 digits for this very trip, knowing that smoke started coming out from her head, imagine spending a hundred million for a single trip? 

There is no way someone like her could do that, this is insanity, her understanding of rich people changed for good because of this, those rich people that she met in the past were nothing compared to this.

Then she thought. 'So this is a real tycoon.'

Hina finally stopped using her brain, because the more she used them, the more shock she will receive, then she finally picked her room, it wasn't anything grand, but she failed to realize that the room she picked was the most expensive room in the hotel, but no one said anything about because they don't care.

After arranging his things, he said, "Alright, it's all done since we're staying for a whole week here, I should visit my shrine but not today, since today is Saturday today is 'that' time of the week, I should pay a visit to that restaurant since I did promise to visit a months ago."

Outside the hotel, 

Kyle looked at the google map on his phone and searched for that restaurant and it turns out it was closer than he expected after just a few minutes of walking, as he was about to go, he couldn't help but smile wryly as he looked behind him.

"So….are you guys just going to silently follow me?" 

After saying that, 3 girls suddenly appeared out of nowhere, they were Tohru, Elma, and Lucoa.

Tohru awkwardly replied. "Tohru wasn't planning to follow you while hiding, it just happened…"

"Is that so? What about you Elma?" Kyle shifted his gaze toward Elma.

"Umm...Tohru was acting suspiciously, so I thought it was interesting so I followed her." Elma said.

"Right...then what about you Lucoa-san?" 

"I'm just curious about where you're going because I feel like you're going to an interesting place," Lucoa said.

Kyle shook his head and spoke. "If you want to follow me, just say so, it's not like I won't allow you to follow me or something, anyway let's go."

Then after that, they followed him to an old restaurant at some corner, normal people wouldn't find anything strange about this old restaurant, but dragons like them could tell that there is a teleportation array behind this door.

"Interesting, to think I'd miss such a place in Kyoto," Lucoa said.

"Well, it's only natural since this only happens every Saturday so that's why you didn't notice this."

"That makes sense." Lucoa nodded, when she thought about it, she had never been to Kyoto on Saturdays, no wonder she missed it.

"Anyway, let's go inside, I'm going to meet an acquaintance," Kyle said.

Then, Tohru glared at him with a suspicious expression. "Is that acquaintance a man or a woman?"

"It's a man."

"That's good then." Tohru was somehow relieved that it wasn't a woman.

However, she didn't know that it wasn't the entire truth, because it wasn't just one acquaintance that he would meet behind the door, technically he wasn't lying that the acquaintance that he was about to meet is a man, however, he never said that he only had one acquaintance to meet.

"Let's not wait anymore, let's go inside." Then he opened the door, as he did he was greeted by a familiar demon girl Aletta.

"Welcome!" She bowed as they went in, then a moment later, as she saw his face, her face couldn't it's surprised.

"Ah! Aren't you the weird guy who was with Kuro-san a few months ago?!"

"Yeah, that's right I came to visit."
