And with that said, that adjourns the issue of the head temple's Disciplinary Act.
I have just received a message from Head Priest Gonno.
“The world we dwell in is changing its form day by day.
And the world is currently pursuing a disruptive and chaotic path.
However, while we are only at this level, not only are we unable to save the world,
we won't be able to save the people before us.
During these harsh times, the Great Holy Priest's former power will come forth.
Although, among the monks, it seems there are few who believe in the revival of Holy Priest Saizen,
who's the basis of our teachings.
At times like these, we need you, the chief priests that have gathered to admonish all credulous and fraudulent remarks.
I ask all the schools to cooperate with one another to fulfill our dearest wish, peace.”
And that is all.
How unusual to see you here, Joutoku-sama.
How many years has it been since you last attended a gathering?
Is it too much of a burden for your aged body to climb the peaks of Nanao once a year?
How about considering retirement?
It's because of young priests like you that I can't retire in peace.
You're arrogant as usual, Kougen.
Alright. No hard feelings, okay?
One, two, and...!
Hell yeah! It's settled. Tomorrow Chitose will go around visiting the patron family.
I'm not too good with the Ojii-chan there.
There's nobody who can handle that geezer.
Oh, is that so? I like him quite a bit.
It'll be fine. Ikkou-kun will be with you.
And what good will he be?
The situation will just get more complicated with him around...
No way!
You know, I heard all that.
No way!
Why do we have to come here once a month to recite the sutra?
The Toudou family are special clients.
I feel bummed out.
I wonder if you're ill.
And who may this be?
Oh, this shape and firmness. You're Chitose-chan.
Please excuse me.
Toudou-san!
It's white! A maiden's white!
Hey, found the breasts.
And what is there at that Shangri-la?
You can't be wandering around the city like this!
Who cares. The only ones who can see me are just you guys anyways.
Not to mention, I wouldn't be a wandering spirit if I didn't wander around, now would I?
Never mind that! Just please rest in peace already!
C-Chitose! Everybody's looking at us!
You must be the enviable youngster that's been staying at Saienji since last year.
Are you really Joutoku-jou's grandson?
For being one, you look like an idiot.
Hey Chitose. Who the hell is this old geezer?
Toudou Tasuke-san.
He is Mrs. Toudou's deceased husband, a delinquent spirit who won't rest in peace.
Delinquent?
Hey old man, you donated some money to Saienji in the past, right? How much?
Oh, just around 3,000,000 yen.
I don't remember, it's been 50 years.
3,000,000 yen 50 years ago?!
That's nothing if it's for Joutoku-jou.
Hello, who might this be?
Good afternoon. We're from Saienji about the inquiry.
Saienji?
Another one from the temple?
Another?
Please come in for the time being.
The one who arrived earlier is already in the altar room.
Earlier?
Who?
Spirits of darkness...!
You're from Saienji, correct?
I've heard that this family has close relations with Saitoushuu, so I came to greet them.
But I didn't expect today to be the day for Saienji's examination.
Please excuse me.
I'm Kazusano Kazuki.
I'm a novice nun from Koushouji, a branch temple of Saitoushuu.
Umm... Kazusano-san, right?
Yes.
But more importantly, behind you...
An altar is where ancestors reside in this world.
It's common for other spirits to gather at the altar when the master is absent.
She can see them fine.
So she isn't lying about being a novice nun from Saitoushuu.
It's all because you're wandering around.
I don't mind. It's quite lively with them around.
No, it isn't good.
There's a possibility that you'll be engulfed in the dark spirits' aura when you return there.
What...?!
At any rate, we need to return immediately and report it to Sakura-san.
There's no need for that.
I have some knowledge in prayer techniques.
With the three of us, we can exorcise them right away.
Besides, I certainly want to see the strength of apprentices trained by Joutoku-sama,
who is well-known for Saitoushuu's prayer techniques.
Ikkou, protect the setup, okay?
Kazusano-san and I'll take care of the recitation.
A-Alright.
Kazuki is fine, Chitose-san.
Let's begin.
This is an incredible sense of stability.
She's more skilled than us by far.
There are very few prayer technique users within the head temple.
This is my first time seeing one besides us.
Duck!
Are you guys alright?
Heigh-ho!
I-I'm sorry!
Not at all. We're now even.
That tenderness...!
It's not absurdly big as Chitose's nor is it too big or too small.
They're just about right!
I'm--
Don't awaken!
You perverted monk!
You've been persistently told to control your lust, remember?!
Take that, and that!
Oh. Don't worry about him. No, really.
Why are they running away?
Oh man. I've caused you all a lot of trouble.
Yeah, no kidding.
Well from now on, I'll try to go home as much as possible.
Or better yet if you would rest in peace.
Well then, I will be parting now.
O-Okay.
We'll be able to meet again in the near future.
Farewell. Chitose-san. Ikkou-san.
Ow!
What the hell are you doing?!
Like I care.
What the...
A novice nun from one of the branches, huh.
She said she's from Koushouji.
Koushou... Koushou...
Oh, there it is.
It's located along the Ichinohashi railway so it's not too far from here.
But more importantly, that Kazuki girl used prayer techniques, right?
She might be some special girl.
It's not that big of a deal, is it?
We use it normally as well.
Jeez, Yuuko. Do you ever listen to Joutoku-baa?
Now, now. Saitoushuu's prayer techniques can only be passed on to a very limited number of people.
It's said that it has to be kept secret.
It wouldn't be good if somebody used it for evil purposes, right?
The other problem is the ability of the person.
Just because a person trains doesn't ensure that the person will be able to use it.
Well, when you're amazing like Haruka, it's more of an abnormality than ability.
Oh, I received a compliment!
That wasn't a compliment.
Enough of that complicated explanation.
So tell me more about that Kazuki girl.
Well, umm...
It was like just right... Like perfect.
And she was short and cute.
Oh?
Oh...
Jeez, that Ikkou.
It was fine this time just because it didn't turn into a serious problem.
Being all love struck.
Though I'm personally excited to see the outcome:
whether Ikkou's seed will bloom into Buddha's lotus flower or into a foul black lotus.
Practically speaking, it's all up to him.
Miss, what do you think?
Sheesh, why did I overhear that conversation?
I wish I hadn't overheard that conversation...
The other day, I was approved as Sekishinryuu's high priest.
Although you are one of the patrons, my position is higher than yours as the branch's chief priestess, Joutoku-dono.
You and your superiority.
From now on, I would prefer if you would refrain from treating me like a youngster.
Sekishinryuu, huh?
The one that should be refrained from Satoushuu's history, Sekishinryuu.
To bring up such a name now.
All schools are to cooperate with one another...
An action that contradicts with Head Priest Gonno's wise words.
Now is the right time for Saitoushuu to work together with Sekishinryuu and forget the disgrace from long ago.
And Head Priest Gonno must've approved of it fully understanding that.
By the way, how is Ikkou-dono doing?
Him being your grandson isn't the only reason he's at your place.
Why was the nuisance of the head house sent to a nun's temple?
Kougen! Let me borrow Head Priest Gonno's wise words again.
Holy Priest Saizen's power is nothing more than conjecture.
Even if it did exist, it will not fall into the hands of Sekishinryuu!
I'm not the one to decide that, neither are you.
It is the will of that person!
I talked too much. I got carried away because of him.
So what grace of God are you seeking from my shriveled hips, Head Priest Gonno?
He said, "Joutoku-jou, you're still our Madonna."
However I have no business with an old geezer.
Oh my.
Sheesh, just about everybody...
All the men around me...
We'll take care of it first thing tomorrow...
No, no... It's fine...
We're Saienji, who're always happy to serve the community...
Yes... We certainly received your request...
Okay. Well then, please excuse me.
The arrangements have been prepared.
To be able to solve such hard problems, you're amazing Hina-chan.
Haruka-san, have you seen Ikkou?
What's wrong? Are you guys fighting again?
Ikkou's responsible for today's chores. I wonder where he ran away to.
First thing he does when Joutoku-baa is gone.
What a hopeless husband.
He's not my husband!
About that, Daikoku-sama...
Huh...?
Yeah. We received a sudden request for Daikoku-sama's fire ritual so I sent Ikkou to pick them up.
Aren't the Daikoku-sama heavy?
And that's what he's for.
She definitely mistreats men.
Hello, I'm here from Saienji to pick up the items.
Thank you for coming, Ikkou-kun.
Huh? Could it be that you've forgotten who I am?
Well, umm...
I would never forget panties I've seen before... I mean...
Hey, it's Kazuki-san.
We've just met yesterday and you've already forgotten?
Umm, it's just that you were so cute that...
Erm, I mean your clothes.
It's not that I'm trying to say you're not cute or anything. Well, umm...
That's right, I was wearing a monk's robe yesterday, huh.
Which one do you prefer?
Hello, we've been waiting for your arrival.
Oh, I'll take care of it. So don't worry about anything.
It's this way. I'll show you the way.
I wasn't informed that there would be this many.
You're going to carry them all, right?
I'll help you out too.
Umm, yes.
I'm acquaintances with the inn keeper here.
I came here when I heard that Saienji monks were coming here today
and I thought I would have a chance to see Chitose-san and the rest of the residents.
And of course, Ikkou-kun too.
Well, umm... There are no boxes left.
If I recall correctly, the boxes should be up here.
Legs and panties detected.
Wait, what the hell am I doing?
Kazuki-san, I'll do it instead.
I'll be fine.
I can almost reach it...
Whoa.
A-Are you okay?
Kazuki-san...?
Let me... Let me stay like this for a little bit.
Please... Ikkou-kun...
That idiot Ikkou!
Where the hell is he messing around?
It's dinner time but we can't eat if we're not all together.
It takes this long to carry the Daikoku-sama?
He's probably taking his time back.
Daikoku-sama?
Oh, it's Joutoku-baa.
Welcome home.
Sogabe Inn's request should've been next month.
I...!
Sakura, get in contact with them immediately.
Y-Yes...!
I'll go over there.
I'll go as well.
It'll be faster on the bicycle, won't it?
Yeah it will.
Ikkou...
That was my first time...
To be seen by a guy...
T-That wasn't...
I understand!
That it wasn't intentional.
But... But you know...
Even when I returned to the temple, I couldn't forget about what happened there.
I kept on thinking about you.
Whoa... She smells really good...
We can't be doing this, huh?
When... I'm a nun...
Please... I don't care if it was intentional.
That light...!
Ikkou!
Hey Ikkou! What are you doing when we're worrying about you?!
What...?!
Yuuko...
For Ikkou, the bastard's rather bold.
He's totally awakened.
No, don't go!
Idiot!
Chito...
Idiot!
Idiot!!!
Chito...se...
Are you okay? I don't know what happened here but you should run away.
Don't get in my way!
Huh?
He was... He was able to awaken further.
What?
Kazuki-san...
Huh? Kazuki?
The one you mentioned about yesterday?
I don't know how much you know about Ikkou-kun's powers,
but you aren't the only ones who can guide him!
Well, it's fine.
I'll call it quits for today.
Kazuki-san...?
Chitose-san, I don't hate you.
Let's still be friends, okay?
Well then, I'll see you again.
What's with her?
Yuuko, isn't he heavy?
You can't carry him, can you?
I'll be fine.
Finally awake, are you?
There.
Ikkou...
Chitose...
Huh? Where's the panties girl.
Hey, Chitose!
Like I care! Idiot! Die!
Did I do something wrong...?
A failure, is it?
Oh, I didn't know there were still people in Sekishinryuu who judge things with a failure or a success.
I'm disappointed.
Today was only just a greeting.
From now on, I'll really guide the powers of the Holy Priest down the correct path.
Let's awaken together next time, okay?
Ikkou-kun...
I'm back!
Satonaka Ikkou has returned!
Hey Ikkou. Your character has changed completely.
Whoops.
Good afternoon.
How are you getting along today? I'm Satonaka Ikkou.
Let's leave him alone...
Sorry to have kept you waiting!
This is the beginning of a new series of 'Amaenaideyo!!'
Chitose-san, thank you for your work up to today.
Kazuki-san?
I'll be the new heroine for the new series.
What?!
So that's how it is. Next time: Don't Fan Me!!
Wait a minute, Kazuki-san!
