CHAPTER 132 - COMPLETELY INFUSED [BONUS CHAPTER 2/4]

"Is this so-called club Ren-kun's harem?" Abe no Seimei blinked her large eyes, full of novelty. In her era, polygamy existed, and she hadn't expected such a system to still be around after so long.

"Um... s-sorry, I'm not," Miko weakly raised her hand.

Kitagawa Marin laughed boisterously. "Hehe, Miko is so weak; she'll be taken down sooner or later."

"Ugh!" Hearing this, Miko shyly buried her head on the table.

Ren glared at Marin in annoyance. "Don't talk nonsense. Haven't I not taken you down?"

Yukino, filled with melancholy, propped her right hand on her forehead. "Ren, I don't care about Yui's matter, but don't let Yui down." From Yui's words, Yukino understood that Yui's feelings were deeply persistent. In front of her, Yui had even expressed a desire to replace Yukino. One could imagine how deep her affection was. Yukino herself was only a latecomer; how could she have the right to refuse others from joining?

Megumi chimed in, "I don't care either."

Ren nodded. "Of course, I've guaranteed it."

"Mm." Yukino trusted Ren's guarantee implicitly. She then informed Ren about the Onmyoji information she had extracted. This information was similar to what Ren already knew, and he himself knew even more, such as details about The Twelve Heavenly Generals, Twin Stars, and so on. But he wasn't so tactless as to blurt it out and negate Yukino's efforts. Instead, he expressed his gratitude for her efforts with a passionate kiss.

In front of Marin and the others, Yukino was still a bit shy. After a brief shyness, however, she gradually began to enjoy it.

"Chinu, what do you think kissing and love feel like?" Abe no Seimei looked at the two, lost in their kiss, in a daze.

"How would I know? If you want to know, go try it yourself," Chinu said in annoyance, then suddenly realized, "Oh, right, you won't live much longer. Try it in your next life."

"!!!" Abe no Seimei puffed out her cheeks, very angry at Chinu for bringing up a sensitive topic.

*****

Yumiko successfully joined the Supernatural Research Club. This once made Hiratsuka Shizuka question life. The Supernatural Research Club, a club whose name alone was quite speechless, had actually managed to recruit seven club members! Even more exaggerated, every one of them was a beautiful young girl. Logically speaking, shouldn't boys be more interested in supernatural things? Currently, the gender ratio in the Supernatural Research Club was severely imbalanced: one male, seven females. It was quite exaggerated.

"Could it be that they were attracted by Ren's good looks?" Even she had to admit that Ren was very handsome and had a great personality. His grades were excellent, he excelled in sports, had a good physique, was handsome, and had a great personality. He was also the Student Council President—a true campus heartthrob. It was normal for him to have many fangirls. In fact, many girls at school had already formed the Ren Fan Club. There were also many girls who knew about Ren's club and wanted to apply to her.

After telling Ren, his decisive reply pleased her. Anyone not personally recommended by him would be rejected. At least he wasn't blinded by the glamorous world. His club indeed had many female members. Hiratsuka Shizuka also didn't think Yukino would be a shallow person who only cared about looks.

"Ding-a-ling!" While thinking about Ren's club, her phone rang.

"Haruno, what's up?"

"Shizuka-chan, you don't need to worry about Yukino's matter anymore."

"Huh?" Could this really be something a doting sister like Haruno would say? Hiratsuka Shizuka was a bit skeptical.

"I've already understood everything about her situation."

"Since you've said so, then so be it." Since Haruno said that, she was happy to take it easy. As a teacher, constantly prying into students' information, like a spy, was quite strange.

"Do you have time this weekend, Shizuka-chan?"

When the weekend was mentioned, Hiratsuka Shizuka rubbed her hair irritably. "Tsk, no time."

"Oh-ho, another blind date? Shizuka-chan, you're almost thirty, and you haven't even properly held a man's hand, have you?"

Hiratsuka Shizuka, holding the phone, blushed. She stammered, "Who said that? I've been carried in a princess carry by a handsome guy!"

"Hahaha, are you joking, Shizuka-chan?"

"Why would I lie to you!" Hiratsuka Shizuka was, of course, telling the truth. She was caught by Ren at the staircase today. Was Ren handsome? Was that a princess carry? I'm telling nothing but the truth! Although it was a bit shameful to fantasize about her student without permission, one's dignity must be earned!

"Alright, alright, I hope your blind date goes well, but I think you might have to attend my wedding before that."

Hiratsuka Shizuka was startled. "You're getting married? An arranged marriage?"

"Not an arranged marriage; it's someone I like." But the Snowfield Family's problems were still there.

"Then Yukino..."

"Don't worry, Yukino will also be with someone she likes. That's enough talk; I need to plan carefully."

"Oh, oh." She hung up the phone. Hiratsuka Shizuka still frowned. The Yukino sisters don't need arranged marriages? By the way, who is the person Haruno likes? Why have I never heard her mention it?

*****

As for Chinu, Ren could only temporarily arrange her in the empty room in his own space. Although she was Impurity, she couldn't be ethereal like Kanae; she could only exist in a materialized form. As for what identity she would live under—an ordinary subordinate or a pet—Ren himself hadn't confirmed yet. But putting everything else aside, a dark-skinned beautiful girl did evoke some feelings. He wasn't some great villain who forced his subordinates; everything depended on fate. If it worked out, it worked out. If not, she'd be a subordinate.

Eriri and the others were already used to new members joining and quickly accepted the existence of Chinu and Abe no Seimei. Their only curiosity was the identities of the two: one Onmyoji, one Onmyoji's enemy Basara. Both were supernatural powers that existed in the real world. Eriri and others who already possessed supernatural powers could see evil spirits or demons with a power similar to spiritual vision. They didn't expect there to be other oddities besides these.

Eriri also grumbled at him and Yukino for a while, saying nothing more than that she wasn't called for the club's first commission. However, at that time, Yui and the others' situation was indeed urgent, and Eriri wasn't at the club, so there was nothing that could be done.

After settling Chinu, Ren needed to talk to Abe no Seimei. Sitting on the sofa, Ren stroked Haru, smoothing her fur. Haru had already comfortably fallen asleep. With Yukino, the top cat slave, around, cat food, dried fish, and everything else related to cats were indispensable. Ren was also not stingy at all; he directly created toys and such, saving the process of buying them. Haru lived a very comfortable life. Every day, Nezuko, Chinu, and Yuuri would also play with her.

Back to the main topic.

"Do you have any thoughts on your current state?" This question was quite direct.

"I... I have no thoughts." Abe no Seimei sighed. What thoughts could she have? Anyway, she had been dead for a long time. The only pity was that there were many new things in the current era, and she was quite curious about them. An era without Impurity... in the past, it was unimaginable.

Ren still had some doubts about Abe no Seimei. In Twin Star Exorcists, the male protagonist, who belonged to the sun, seemed to be her child? Ren needed to confirm this question.

"You've lived for so long, don't you have any descendants?"

"Descendants?" Abe no Seimei tilted her head. "I don't have a husband, so where would I get descendants?"

"..." Well, it was uncertain whether that Rokuro Enmado existed, and even if he did, he didn't know where he came from.

Ren nodded at this. "That's good, no lingering attachment to the present world. You can rest in peace."

"You sure know how to talk," Abe no Seimei puffed out her little cheeks.

"If you want to stay in the present world, it's not necessarily impossible." Ren changed the subject.

"Hmm? What opportunity?" Abe no Seimei's eyes lit up.

"I might have a way to maintain your soul body here."

"..." Abe no Seimei stared at him for a while, then retorted, "You clearly want to use me for experiments, don't you?"

Surprise. He didn't expect this small body and small head to think of that. He indeed had an experiment he wanted to do regarding soul bodies. Ren didn't intend to hide it. "You could say that. Anyway, you're destined to be gone, so it's like trying to revive a dead horse."

"..." These words left Abe no Seimei speechless. She simply lay spread-eagled on the soft sofa, looking like she was at his mercy.

"Come on, come on, I also want to experience modern life properly."

Ren nodded and added a reminder: "Because my power involves my secret, you understand, right?"

Abe no Seimei instantly understood. "Got it, got it. Isn't it just having another master like Chinu? It doesn't matter anyway. Since the Magano Impurity is gone, my mission as an Onmyoji has ended. I'm just a remnant soul, so anything is fine," she said, resigned.

Since she said so, Ren didn't waste any more words. He mobilized Primal Energy and poured it into her soul body. Abe no Seimei, lying on the sofa, suddenly felt a scorching energy surge into her soul body. She was a soul body; how could she feel this way?

Then, "Eek!!! It's full! It's full!" Abe no Seimei shrieked. She felt her remnant soul being completely filled by this energy. Her remnant soul became solid and complete. But the distended feeling still remained.

Haru was startled awake by her screams. He rubbed his eyes with his small paw, looking at Abe no Seimei flailing and screaming on the sofa with a puzzled expression.

"Meow?" (Is she too full?)

Ren stroked his small head and chuckled, "Something like that."

"Meow." (Being too full isn't good.)

Abe no Seimei didn't want to eat that much either. It was just that Ren had infused too much energy. Ren just wanted to see where her limit was.

A few minutes later, the screaming stopped. Abe no Seimei lay sprawled on the sofa with an expression like she had been played with and broken. Her clothes were disheveled, revealing a hint of allure, but she didn't care. Ren touched her feet, legs, waist, hands, arms, and face. They all felt like a physical body, no different from a real person.

"Do you feel like you have a physical body or a soul body now?"

Abe no Seimei came to her senses, sat up with difficulty, and tidied her clothes. She spoke faintly, "I'm still a soul body, but my current state is very strange. This substantial body is no different from a physical one."

"I see." His experiment was over. The result was that Primal Energy could restore and strengthen a soul body, but it couldn't transform a soul body into a physical body. It only made its solidity indistinguishable from a physical body, though its essence remained unchanged. A small experiment yielded a new use for Primal Energy. He was very satisfied with the result. He rewarded her with a dominant package.

"Master." Abe no Seimei genuinely wanted to thank him.

"You should go sleep with Chinu," Ren said, patting Haru's shoulder before returning to his room. Someone was all washed up and waiting for him tonight.

*****

"Leone, why don't you transform? Otherwise, I feel your combat power isn't up to par."

"Hmph, defeat me in my normal state first."

"You said it, so I'm going all out."

"You've cleaned up quite nicely here; was that intentional?"

"I didn't! Hey, is that really okay?"

"Are you scared?"

"Who... who's scared! Bring it on!"

"Hey, hey, hey, Chelsea, isn't it a bit too much for you to transform into Mine's appearance?"

"Doesn't Ren like it?"

"Hiss! I like it immensely!"

*****

In the adjacent room, two identical girls looked at each other.

"Is this how humans express love?" Chinu tilted her head.

Abe no Seimei, an old virgin loli of several hundred years, understood nothing. Her fair face was covered in a blush. "I... I don't know..."

Chinu had an expression of wanting to experience it; she was very interested in humans.

Abe no Seimei quickly spoke to stop her idea. "What are you thinking? How could Master Ren like an Impurity like you?!" In reality, she stopped her because Chinu was identical to her. If Chinu were to have sexual relations with Ren, while looking and having a body identical to her own, the thought alone made her feel incredibly uneasy, like sitting on pins and needles, or having a thorn in her back, or a fishbone stuck in her throat!

Chinu didn't speak, a faint smile playing at the corners of her mouth.
