Chapter 10 The Maiden Rendezvous

"The battle he mentioned?" "A battle he couldn't share with anyone else?" Snow Sky-Dog spoke like that? Are you sure about this, Mizuchi Haruka?" Kurogami Masayuki asked in surprise.

"I'm not entirely sure about the truth behind these words, but indeed, the snow wolf said so to me!" Mizuchi Haruka said with a confident attitude.

"Well, this is truly difficult to judge and deduce! The more I think about it, the more complicated it seems." Kurogami Masayuki couldn't hide his concern, and his eyes and tone revealed this.

"I have a hypothesis about the truth hidden behind this, elder brother, do you want to hear it?" Mizuchi Haruka said in a very soft voice.

"If you have a hypothesis, then please tell me!" Kurogami Masayuki seemed impatient as Mizuchi Haruka tried to maintain an air of mystery.

"In my opinion, it's entirely possible that the master has assigned some mysterious and crucial task to that snow wolf. Perhaps in that task, seducing that human girl is necessary and obligatory because it is part of the mission." Mizuchi Haruka said, her eyes shining with the light of intelligence and a hint of mischief.

"Your hypothesis may also be correct, as it sounds very convincing! Although everyone in this academy knows that the snow wolf is quite promiscuous, I think his feelings for you are genuine and deep within his heart. I believe his intimacy and flirtation with you stem from a serious attitude towards entering a romantic relationship with you!" Kurogami Masayuki said very slowly, emphasizing each important word.

"Or should we directly ask the master?" Mizuchi Haruka said with an uneasy and hasty tone.

"Are you crazy? Are you so in love with that snow wolf that you've gone mad? If we do that, it's no different from threatening and offending the master. If we directly ask the master when he has assigned some task to that snow wolf, and if that task is related to seducing this human girl, it will make the master think that we are undermining his plan. If the master has given some task to that snow wolf and that task involves seducing this human girl, then asking the master directly like that is no different from making the master believe that we are disruptors of his plan. Normally, you are very intelligent, so why now become foolish and impulsive?" Kurogami Masayuki firmly rejected Mizuchi Haruka's proposed idea with a loud voice.

"So, what do you suggest we do? Just let that youkai take away my lover!" Mizuchi Haruka couldn't hide the jealousy in her words.

"Well, let me think! Tonight, in the human world, there is a lantern festival, and if I'm not mistaken, that snow wolf will have his first date with the human girl at that festival. So why don't you and I go there to see if your rival is more beautiful than you? What does that girl have that attracts him? First, knowing these things, we will figure out the rest later!" Kurogami Masayuki said with a very low volume as if he didn't want anyone but Mizuchi Haruka to hear.

"Right, that's a good idea, elder brother! So why didn't I think of something so simple? Tonight, you and I will go to the Lantern Festival in the human world. I want to know what magic that she-demon has to be able to seduce Snow Sky Dog." Mizuchi Haruka happily said.

"Fine, but if you and I go there, I forbid you to act jealous and mention the master's plan!" Kurogami Masayuki said, wanting to prevent the danger before it became a reality.

"Elder brother, rest assured! I won't be as foolish and impulsive as that!" Mizuchi Haruka replied with a very determined tone.

"Good, then you go have breakfast! Today, the master called me to talk to him again!"

"What did the master ask about, elder brother?" Mizuchi Haruka curiously asked with a low-volume voice and inquisitive eyes.

"What else! In our group, I hold the position of group leader, so, of course, the master asked me about the situation of all three of us!" Kurogami Masayuki replied straightforwardly.

"In that case, elder brother, don't say anything about the "affair" of that snow wolf, please!" Mizuchi Haruka pleaded in a begging tone.

"Of course, I won't say it. I'm not foolish like that; you can rest assured!" Kurogami Masayuki replied before stepping out of the room.

In the room, only Mizuchi Haruka remained, and she whispered to herself:

"Human girl, you dare to seduce my boyfriend. I want to know what makes you so special that you dare to confront me. Hmm, I have to put on some makeup!"

The human world.

Today is the Lantern Festival, and many people are attending the festival.

The lantern festival in the human world is extremely lively and bustling, with a variety of colorful lanterns of different shapes and sizes hanging scattered along the streets. The light from these lanterns flickers, embellishing the incredibly radiant beauty of the festival. Under the twinkling lights, the excited crowd moves, and each person feels the festive atmosphere.

Snow Sky Dog and Seraphina Frostwind, the human girl he is dating, seem to blend into the joyful atmosphere of the festival. Snow Sky-Dog wears an elegant outfit, a set of clothes that enhances the indescribable beauty in the distinctive style of the snow wolf, white and pure. He appears sophisticated and charming, attracting the attention of everyone around him.

Seraphina Frostwind, the human woman Snow Sky Dog is dating, wears a long blue dress, a dress created with subtle cuts and meticulous tailoring. Her hair is tied up in a high bun, revealing small, cute ears. Her sophistication and elegance make her stand out in the crowd.

Snow Sky Dog and Seraphina choose a quiet corner of the street where they can admire the lanterns and enjoy the lively atmosphere of the festival together. The light from the lanterns reflects in Seraphina's sparkling eyes, making her even more enchanting.

Snow Sky-Dog looks up at the night sky, realizing that the lantern festival is truly a magnificent painting, with each lantern being a small star in the night. He not only appreciates the beauty of the festival but also enjoys the presence of Seraphina beside him.

"Seraphina, the festival is amazing, isn't it?" Snow Sky-Dog initiates the conversation.

Seraphina replies warmly, "Certainly, it's unexpectedly beautiful. Do you like lantern festivals?"

"Indeed, I think it's more beautiful when I share it with you."

Seraphina laughs gently and responds, "You say such romantic things. But I like it."

In the festive atmosphere, amidst the lively crowd and the dazzling light of the lanterns, Snow Sky Dog and Seraphina continue their meaningful date. Time passes, but this moment, together under the lantern lights, makes their relationship sweeter and more unforgettable than anything else.
