After saying goodbye to Natsumi and everyone eating lunch, Shido and Mikoto ca to the rest area to buy coffee for everyone.
"Speaking of which, how are things on your side, senpai?"
Shido asked.
According to yesterday's division of labor, Mikoto and Miku were responsible for promoting the doujinshi.
"Mm, school and the parishioners have already been handled. What's left is the forum. I feel like more people there might be interested in doujinshi."
Mikoto thought for a mont and said.
"It's good to be full of effort, but don't overwork yourself. Yakumo-senpai still has shrine work to do, right?"
Although Mikoto's work seed lighter than everyone staying up all night to draw, New Year was a very important part of shrine work. It could be called the busiest ti for a shrine.
Thinking of that, he felt sowhat guilty and touched Mikoto's head. Sohow, he felt that Mikoto had sacrificed a lot of ti to help him.
"Ehehe…"
Feeling the warmth of Shido's palm, the girl comfortably narrowed her eyes and rubbed against Shido's palm like a small animal.
"!!!"
Looking at Mikoto's obedient appearance, Shido felt his face redden and his heart pound.
"Eek!"
However, that warm and sweet atmosphere did not last long before it was interrupted by a scream.
"What happened?"
"It sounded like it ca from the room over there. Let's go take a look."
Shido and Mikoto pushed open the door to the room beside the rest area and walked in.
This was the place where the people not responsible for drawing discussed the plot.
At this mont, what entered the two's eyes was Miku lying on the sofa, with Tohka sitting on top of her.
"Um…"
Looking at that overly strange scene, Shido did not know what to say.
"What are you two… doing?"
Mikoto took over Shido's question and asked.
"Ara, Darling, and Mikoto-san…"
Miku raised her head, her eyes shimring with tears that could have been from pain or happiness.
"Well, just as you can see, Tohka is giving Miku a massage."
Kotori said with a speechless expression.
_____________
Ti returned to a few minutes earlier.
Miku, who had finished promoting the doujinshi, ca over to Kotori's side to ask for a reward.
Although she called it asking for a reward, it basically ant that after working hard all day and being tired in both body and mind, she hoped a cute girl could give her a massage or sothing like that.
"Because Miku really helped a lot this ti, and Tohka herself was interested, I didn't object…"
Kotori said helplessly.
If they had any chance of winning in doujinshi sales this ti, Miku had undoubtedly contributed a great deal.
And Tohka seed to have watched a TV program about massage techniques two nights ago, so she was also full of interest in giving soone a massage. On top of that, the plot planning group was not in as much of a battlefield as the drawing group, so Kotori had allowed it.
However…
"Eek!"
When Miku lay on the sofa, and Tohka sat on Miku's waist, placed two fingers on an acupoint on the girl's back, and applied force, the resulting scream from so kind of bone being pressed heavily told Kotori one fact—she had still been too naive.
"Um… Tohka, you should get down. If this continues, Miku will be stuck in bed and unable to move until this year ends."
In the end, after explaining everything, Kotori waved her hand and signaled Tohka to hurry down.
"No… it's fine. I can still… continue…"
However, Miku stopped her with a trembling voice.
"This…"
Seeing Miku look both pained and pleased, Shido felt the corner of his mouth twitch.
"As expected of Miku."
Mikoto was also speechless.
Although Miku could not handle Tohka's powerful fingers, she also could not bear to let Tohka leave. According to Miku's way of thinking, that was probably it.
"Umu! In that case, I'll continue."
As Tohka spoke, she put force into her fingers again.
Crack!
"!!!"
This ti, everyone clearly heard a strange sound from the joints in Miku's bones.
"Uiiiiiii!"
Just like that, the girl collapsed with a smile that looked both painful and happy.
"Um, is Miku okay?"
Shido asked.
"Well, since she herself said to continue, then it should be fine, right?"
Kotori bit on her Chupa Chups helplessly and said that.
"What are you saying, Shido? The TV said that massages need to be done with strength. Although it hurts a little, that is how it becos effective."
Tohka raised her head and said seriously.
(That ans using human strength…)
Hearing Tohka's words, Mikoto retorted in her heart.
"Ah! Right, how about I help massage Shido next ti too? I feel like I found the trick after this ti. Like this, pressing down right here…"
Crack!
Another strange sound rang out, along with Miku's scream.
Shido imdiately felt his face turn green.
"Then it's decided! You absolutely have to let massage you, Shido!"
Tohka looked at Shido with eyes so pure it made it hard to refuse.
"Ah… ah… mm."
And so, Shido could only nod while forcing himself through it.
"What should I do, Yakumo-senpai?"
After saying goodbye to everyone and closing the door, Shido looked at Mikoto with a pleading gaze.
"Shido…"
Mikoto thought for a mont, then smiled at Shido and said:
"I'll prepare a first aid kit for you. Don't worry."
The instant he heard those words, Shido completely turned gray white.
________________
That night, Mikoto returned to her bedroom and turned on her computer.
After saying goodbye to Shido in the afternoon and coming back, she had spent the remaining ti busy with shrine matters. Just like Shido had said, New Year was almost here, and there were many things the shrine had to prepare.
Now, the shrine matters had temporarily reached a stopping point. She logged into the forum and tried promoting Shido's doujinshi there.
-At the doujinshi convention at the end of December, our circle will be releasing a doujinshi. I hope everyone can co.
The instant she made the post, soone replied.
-Rabbit-chan, post a photo and I'll co. Shrine maiden outfit only.
1 to upstairs.
2 to upstairs.
…
As a result, the formation appeared imdiately.
"Ugh…"
Seeing this situation, Mikoto tilted her head in distress.
"Post a photo… that ans uploading a photo to the forum, right…"
Thinking carefully, it was only uploading a photo in shrine maiden clothes. It was not actually a big deal. But when she thought about posting a photo online, Mikoto still felt sowhat shy.
"What should I do?"
In the first place, the forum users might not really want to see a photo. Maybe they only thought keeping the formation going was fun.
(But this is to help Shido capture Nia.)
Mikoto hesitated for a while.
(As expected, the more people who can co, the better.)
In the end, she nodded and made up her mind.
(All right! If they want a photo, I'll post a photo!)
Thinking that, she uploaded a photo of Shiori-chan dressed as a shrine maiden. (TL:Kewk)
