When everyone woke up, they all went to have breakfast at the restaurant after they cleaned up. 

"For you, Mizuto." 

"Thanks, Akatsuki." 

As Mizuto ate his Western-style breakfast, Akatsuki gave him a hot black coffee, which helped him wake up. The bitter taste might not be good for others, yet it sharpened his mind. 

Sipping a blue mountain coffee cup in his hand, he let out a comforting sigh. 

Still, whether it was Yume or Reina, they were speechless at Akatsuki's attentiveness, yet they knew that even though she appeared reckless, she was the most aware of her surroundings and helped them when they needed it the most. Still, somehow, this also aroused their fighting spirit. 

Nevertheless, Reina glanced at Mizuto, who seemed nonchalant and didn't seem like someone who had just done something vulgar in the early morning. This made her pout and sad, as she thought that his act with her was nothing to him.

Still, as she thought about this morning, her white skin turned rosy as she bit her lower lip. 

"What's wrong, Reina? Are you okay?" 

"Yes, your face is so red. Are you sick?" 

Yume and Akatsuki looked at Reina in concern. 

"No-no! I am okay!" Reina quickly said as she subconsciously looked in Mizuto's direction. "If you don't feel well, you can rest, you know?" 

"I-I am fine..." 

While Mizuto sounded cornered like everyone, his smile showed otherwise, causing her to blush and lower her head in a hurry as she snorted. She felt annoyed as she grumbled that he was such a bastard. 

Nevertheless, knowing that Reina was okay, Yume and Akasuki were relieved. 

Still, there was no doubt their trip was great, especially when Mizuto knew how to make them get used to the luxury of the surroundings. When they entered this hotel, they thought they needed to appear at their best, yet Mizuto showed them that there was no need for them to do so, especially when he wore a navy blue tee with a "HxH" symbol in the middle of the chest, light blue jeans, grey socks, Birkenstocks Boston, and a Casio F-191 on his wrist. 

Every part of his clothes was cheap except, and he appeared so relaxed, so they were able to relax their shoulders and dress with confidence. 

Frankly, wearing a luxury brand was good and all, as it made one appear better than the others. While others might say that it was meaningless to buy a luxury brand if one didn't have a status or was known by the public, a luxury good was necessary, especially when one wanted to have their clients take them seriously. 

A luxury brand = status. 

This might seem fake, and the confidence or status gained from such luxury might be disdained, yet there was no doubt that it was effective. 

On the other hand, those who stood at the top, such as famous tech billionaires, didn't need to do so since their name was a brand itself, yet in the end, as long as you felt comfortable, confident, and appeared good, whatever brand you chose, you would look sharp. 

Still, in the end, before one thought about the clothes or what, if one wanted to appear better, one had to be clean and have a pleasant smell first. 

It was also why the girls took so long to prepare. 

Yume had even borrowed his bathroom before, so there was no need for the three girls to hurry each other. 

As for Reina? As she woke up early, she washed her body first. 

Still, unlike the first day, when they stayed in the hotel all the time, this time, they went on a real trip to Ise Shima, to this famous city. 

Yet, there was one big problem. 

"Is a shrine the only place we can go?" 

The most famous landmark of the Ise Shima was, naturally, the Ise Jingu, the most significant shrine in this country. Yet, as someone who originated from Kyoto, they had seen enough shrines every day. Even if the shrine in this city had a greater significance than the one in their home, in their mind, a shrine was a shrine. 

"I think this is a great idea." Nevertheless, Mizuto wished to visit this shrine. 

"Do you like shrines, Mizuto?" Reina looked at Mizuto in doubt.

Yume and Akatsuki also looked at Mizuto as it was their first time to know such a thing. 

"Well, I think that I need to cleanse my mind." 

"...." 3x

The three of them fell in silence before they lowered their heads as they made up their minds to visit the shrine as they also needed to cleanse up their minds. The indulgence they exchanged with him was too dangerous, and it might even affect their spirits as they would think something perverted with him. Moreover, they also hoped that by going to this shrine, he would be sober and could control himself better, as they knew that this guy was too energetic!

Still, after they visited the Ise Jingu shrine, Mizuto also wanted to bring them to the Shima Spain Village.

"You sure like a theme park," Yume said helplessly, but she didn't hate this idea. 

Reina and Akatsuki also thought the same since instead of going to the shrine, it was far better to go to the theme park. 

"What's so special about this theme park?" Reina asked since, aside from music and his penis, she didn't have much of an interest in others. 

"It is built with a Spanish theme."

"Spain? What's so famous about it?" 

"Football, a matador, and also Don Quixote. Oh, it is also a passionate country." 

"As expected, you must think of the women, huh?" 

"....." Mizuto looked at Akatsuki speechlessly, but then he said, "Well, it's also owned by the company where I work." 

Hearing this reason, their expressions also changed. 

"So, are you here also for work?" 

"Well, I want to test it firsthand and see how it is different from the other theme parks." 

No one disagreed, and after they finished their breakfast, they also started their trip. Their first destination was the Ise-Jingu shrine, where the Amaterasu resided. 

Frankly, Mizuto wondered whether this could be counted as a religious trip, yet watching how many people kept coming to the shrine, praying, and then throwing some money into the offering box, his expression became subtle. 

He knew that he shouldn't do this, especially by monetizing the religion, yet he couldn't help the situation of this country. Even a priest needed money to live, and there were many shrines in Kyoto that were focused on getting money from the tourists. Some even started to use social media to promote their specialty. 

"Are you worried about your friend?" 

When they entered the shrine, Mizuto noticed Akatsuki's expression, which was quite cloudy. 

"Ah, can you tell?" Akatsuki tried to mask everything with her smile, but then she asked softly, "But you still remember our conversation that day, huh?" 

It was still the beginning of their relationship, and she told him how she was worried about her friend who was in debt because of their temple. 

Gently caressing her hair, Mizuto stared at Akatsuki, then said, "I can help them if you want." 

"Eh?" 

"The only thing that I am not worried about in this world is money." 

"...don't do this." 

However, she refused as if she were trying to resist something. 

"Why?" 

"Because I am afraid that our relationship will be... and by then..." 

By then, she would be swallowed by him, yet she knew how unfair her wish would be. He wasn't only for hers, and before her, someone had taken him, yet she still wished for him and touched him. Yet, when she touched him by making a promise that she was okay with how he was, she wasn't satisfied and wished for him to be hers alone.

"You are so cute, Akatsuki."

Akatsuki knew while Mizuto might seem like he was about to be swallowed by her, he was the one who made her think so, and the truth was she was the one who swallowed by him. 

Yet, she knew as her body and heart had been shaped and dominated by him, she could only succumb to him. 

Nevertheless, Mizuto said helplessly, "But I have to say, it feels strange to have this kind of conversation on the shrine." 

"You are going to be cursed!" 

"Haha..." 

If he is cursed, then so be it. 

Still, Akatsuki pouted and wondered whether Reina had been eaten by him. If so, nothing was going to change since she would be with him no matter what. So when Yume and Reina were looking at the scenery on the shrine, she reached for his hand and held it timidly. Yet he looked at her casually and then held her firmly, which softened her expression as she rubbed her cheek against his arm like a docile cat.
