Kaguya Shinomiya and Rio Futaba exchanged a glance, recalling the scene when they first awakened their soul manifestations. They were both somewhat surprised by Kaguya Shinomiya's performance.

Could it be that because she had once created a "palace," some of the spiritual power transformed from that distorted desire remained even after the "palace" disappeared?

That shouldn't be. Shoko Nishimiya's mother also created a "palace." Although the scope wasn't as large and it wasn't fully formed, it was definitely a "palace." However, recently, there haven't been any signs of suddenly being able to see evil spirits and ghosts, or awakening spiritual power.

However, logically speaking, even if SERN used a scheme to stimulate the negative emotions in Kaguya Shinomiya's heart, a "palace" that could cover the entire Shuchiin Academy was still an exaggeration.

This can only mean that Kaguya Shinomiya is also a true genius in terms of spiritual ability, possessing a spiritual talent that is naturally more outstanding than ordinary people.

… …

After a brief exchange and listening to Rio Futaba's introduction to spiritual abilities, Kaguya Shinomiya looked at Yozora with a slightly complicated expression and sighed softly.

"As expected, you are 'Masque,' but why... didn't you ever tell me?"

Yozora replied with righteous confidence.

"What do you think this is? Cosplay? Please be clear-headed. I'm committing a crime. Have you ever seen a mass murderer actively tell others their identity? That's just being stupid."

Kaguya Shinomiya thought about it, and that made sense, but with her proud and aloof personality, she naturally couldn't directly express her thoughts. She simply twirled a strand of hair by her ear and said lightly.

"Indeed, but I'm not that concerned about you. I'm not curious about your identity."

Just then, a girl wearing a miko outfit, petite, and with a cute appearance, whom Kaguya Shinomiya had never seen before, walked over and teased with a light laugh.

"You're right, but... my eyes can't take away from his profile."

"Yes."

Yui Yuigahama, with her cheerful and lively personality, also couldn't help but joke.

"My eyes can't take away from his profile."

Ai Hayasaka and Kaguya Shinomiya looked at each other blankly, not understanding what the joke was about.

When she was trapped in the "palace," Ai Hayasaka, like the students of Shuchiin Academy, including Chika Fujiwara and Maki Shijo, fell into an unconscious state and didn't retain any memories. Naturally, she didn't hear the words that represented Kaguya Shinomiya's true feelings.

"Speaking of which... who are you?"

Hearing Kaguya Shinomiya's question, Yozora Enmusubi smiled slightly, struck a cute pose with her hands on her hips, and said grandly.

"Now that you have sincerely asked, I will mercifully tell you that I am Enmusubi, the guardian of all of Yozora's relationships, the savior of Itomori Town, the true god whose greatness needs no further explanation, and the strongest CP leader of the Supernatural Quantum Mechanics Research Society!"

"Um..."

Kaguya Shinomiya and Ai Hayasaka, who had just come into contact with the truth of this world, seemed a little at a loss. Ai Hayasaka tentatively asked.

"So... you're a god?"

"That's right, the God of Marriage!"

Ai Hayasaka had a complex expression that she didn't know how to evaluate, so she simply didn't express any opinion, so as not to offend this so-called God of Marriage. She just leaned close to Kaguya Shinomiya's ear and said in a low voice.

"Kaguya-sama, now that you've woken up, and such a thing happened at Shuchiin today, and you haven't returned for the past few days, if you still don't go home today..."

"Yes, I understand."

Kaguya Shinomiya wasn't stupid and naturally understood what Ai Hayasaka meant.

She hadn't returned to that mansion for the past few days, which was already an action that didn't fit the identity of the eldest daughter of the Shinomiya family. Today, such a thing happened at Shuchiin Academy. No one knows that the real culprit who caused that "palace" phenomenon was her. They would only think that in such an unsafe time, Kaguya, as the eldest daughter of the Shinomiya family, was not going home and wandering around outside, disregarding her own safety.

This was simply a perfect target. Even in normal times, Kaguya would inevitably be called to the main family's residence for a lecture. Moreover, Shinomiya Gan'an's health was getting worse and worse, which meant that the competition between the Shinomiya family's successors was becoming more and more intense.

Kaguya Shinomiya had awakened the ability of soul manifestation and faced her true self, but her thoughts had not changed.

She had no interest in the power and money symbolized by the position of the Shinomiya family head, but whether she was interested or not was one thing. If others tried to take away what originally belonged to her, she would not give in in the slightest.

"Cough cough."

Hearing the conversation between Ai Hayasaka and Kaguya Shinomiya, Yozora Enmusubi coughed lightly twice before slowly opening her mouth.

"Well, Kaguya-chan, you've now become a target for enemies. I can understand your reason for needing to return to your home, but before your power becomes stronger, I have a suggestion."

"Why not... let Yozora live in your house and protect you closely?"

Chapter 411: The Tsundere's Program Effect, An Invitation from the Shinomiya Main Family

"This..."

Hearing Yozora Enmusubi say that she wanted Yozora to live in her house and protect her closely, Kaguya Shinomiya showed a conflicted expression, glancing at Yozora standing there, not knowing how to respond to this question for a moment.

According to her own thoughts, she would of course want to spend more time with him.

According to the actual situation, having already been targeted by enemies once, and being on the list of future "Masque" supporters, Kaguya Shinomiya, whose identity is different from ordinary people and who may inherit the Shinomiya Conglomerate, is indeed an important person who needs protection.

But to have Kaguya Shinomiya directly say in front of everyone that she agreed to Yozora living in her house, or even... living in the same room with her?

That was simply asking for her life.

"If... if you want to live in my house..."

Kaguya Shinomiya raised her chin, turned her face to the side, and pretended to be nonchalant.

"Then... then I won't stop you."

When she finished saying this, Kaguya Shinomiya noticed that the members of the Supernatural Society, except for Ai Hayasaka, were looking at her with complex expressions. Even Yui Yuigahama and Setsuna Ogiso were almost unable to hold back their laughter, as if she had just said something very funny.

It was indeed very funny.

The main thing was that this information gap was really amusing.

She had clearly said such a touching confession, but... Kaguya Shinomiya herself didn't know, and Ai Hayasaka didn't know, so she couldn't remind her, which led to everyone knowing Kaguya Shinomiya's thoughts, but she was still pretending to be nonchalant.

Who said that tsundere is outdated?

Isn't this quite effective for the program?

"Okay, I'm fine with anything."

Yozora didn't expose Kaguya Shinomiya's little thoughts, just replied with a smile.

“I want to see how long you can keep this up, 《On the Matter of Clearly Being in Love, Yet Still Remaining Single》.”

Kaguya Shinomiya's face flushed red upon hearing this, and she bit her silver teeth, saying hatefully.

“Who… Who is in love with you?”

Ye Xing shrugged his shoulders and replied with a sincere expression.

“If you really want to ask this, then I have to perform the classic elimination method again. After all, there are too many girls in love with me to count.”

“Scumbag…”

“Please, if you don't understand the great god of pure love harem, don't jump to conclusions.”

… …

After leaving the Overload Club's apartment building, Hayasaka Ai contacted the driver at the mansion and asked him to pick her up at the intersection.

Kaguya Shinomiya looked at the street illuminated by the dim yellow streetlights, with a very curious look, constantly looking around.

Her original daily life was just her mansion and the Private Shuuchiin Academy, a two-point, unchanging routine.

Not to mention walking to school, Kaguya Shinomiya was like a caged bird locked in a black luxury car, only able to observe the outside world through the dark windows.

Being outside at this time gave her a feeling of freedom to finally breathe freely.

A few minutes later, a luxurious black extended car slowly parked in front of the three.

“Miss Kaguya, please get in.”

Just as Kaguya Shinomiya and Hayasaka Ai were planning to let Ye Xing get in first, and then get in themselves, they saw the driver's eyes flicker, but he didn't say much. He just waited until the three of them got into the car before driving forward.

“Kaguya… something's not right…”

Hayasaka Ai leaned close to Kaguya Shinomiya's ear and said this in a low voice. The latter nodded almost imperceptibly, replying in an equally inaudible tone.

“Yes, it is indeed a bit strange.”

Both Kaguya Shinomiya and Hayasaka Ai were very alert and had already noticed the anomaly.

Logically speaking, this driver was nominally serving Kaguya Shinomiya alone, but in reality, he was also one of Kaguya Shinomiya's monitors, responsible for monitoring Kaguya Shinomiya's movements, whether she had any thoughts of going to places she shouldn't go, or whether she had thought about seeing someone she shouldn't see.

As a result, when he saw Ye Xing getting into the car, he didn't even ask a question, which was completely illogical.

“This isn't the way home, is it?”

Hearing Kaguya Shinomiya's question, the driver stared straight ahead at the road, his hands firmly in control of the steering wheel. His attitude was very polite, but there was a kind of unquestionable firmness.

“Miss Kaguya, the main family has asked you to come over.”

“The main family…”

The so-called main family of the Shinomiya family actually refers to the current head of the family, Shinomiya Gan'an, and Kaguya Shinomiya's eldest brother, who is also the eldest son of the Shinomiya family, Shinomiya Kouyou, who represents the faction.

After this period of change, if Shinomiya Gan'an wanted to find his daughter, he would definitely notify her in advance. Moreover, Ye Xing was present. How could he do such a thing that would anger this “Mask,” like a forced kidnapping?

Then… it could only be Shinomiya Kouyou.

“So it's my elder brother who wants to see me.”

Kaguya Shinomiya nodded slightly, tucking the black hair beside her ear, every move showing the steady demeanor of a noble lady.

“I understand, then let him prepare to welcome me.”

Hearing this, the driver's eyes couldn't help but change. Through the mirror in the car, he observed the expression of Kaguya Shinomiya sitting in the back. He found that the other party didn't have the slightest bit of panic, nor any nervous expression. Instead, she had a confident look as if everything was under control.

This made him a little confused.

In the past, when Kaguya Shinomiya was called to the main family, even if she maintained her composure on the surface, anyone could see her nervousness and lack of confidence when facing the main family.

This time…

How did it feel like Kaguya Shinomiya had suddenly changed into a different person?

She even had a bit of the commanding presence of her father, the contemporary leader of the Shinomiya financial group, Shinomiya Gan'an, when he was young?

Just as the driver was thinking this, a pair of black eyes were reflected in the mirror. The moment he met those eyes, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine, and his body began to stiffen, like a weak prey being targeted.

“Please drive a little faster.”

Ye Xing first said very politely, then revealed a kind smile and said softly.

“I can't wait to see that Shinomiya Kouyou.”

… …

About twenty minutes later, outside a mansion in the distant suburbs of Kyoto.

Different from the castle-like, luxurious, and solemn building where Kaguya Shinomiya lived, which had a suffocating feeling, this mansion had a very traditional architectural style, like an ancient folk house, exuding an atmosphere of death, old-fashionedness, and seriousness.

“Miss Kaguya.”

A dozen burly men in black suits stood at the door. Seeing Kaguya Shinomiya getting out of the car, they immediately split into two rows, bowing slightly and nodding in greeting.

Kaguya Shinomiya frowned slightly, seemingly not liking such occasions. She didn't even say hello, just intending to lead Ye Xing and Hayasaka Ai with her, and walk towards the house.

But before she could cross the threshold, one of the men in suits raised his arm and blocked Ye Xing and Hayasaka Ai in front, saying in a deep voice.

“The main family only invited Miss Kaguya. The two of you, as servants, should wait outside.”

Hayasaka Ai didn't have any objections, but she knew that Ye Xing would definitely not let this go when he heard such words.

As a result, Kaguya Shinomiya took a step forward, stood in front of the suit-clad bodyguard, looked directly into the other's eyes, and said word by word.

“The two of them, will go in with me.”

“Miss Kaguya, I'm afraid that…”

Kaguya Shinomiya narrowed her beautiful red eyes slightly, exuding an aura that made the bodyguards, who had undergone rigorous training and seen many big scenes, feel somewhat dangerous and dare not look directly at her.

“I said, Hayasaka Ai and Ye Xing, the two of them, will go in with me.”

Although the bodyguard was a little nervous, and even swallowed unconsciously, he still maintained a tough attitude.

“Miss Kaguya, please don't be so willful…”

Just as the bodyguard was halfway through his words, he suddenly heard instructions from his superiors in his earpiece, and immediately changed his tone, raising his arm to make a gesture of invitation.

“Please, the three of you, follow me.”

After finally entering the mansion, under the leadership of the bodyguard, Kaguya Shinomiya, along with Hayasaka Ai and Ye Xing, arrived at the largest main house.

“Please come in, the three of you.”

After opening the door, what appeared in front of Kaguya Shinomiya was a very familiar face, one that usually made her feel very disgusted and somewhat fearful, but today it could not cause the slightest fluctuation in her mood, the face of a bald middle-aged man sitting cross-legged on the ground.
