"So, I hate mutations the most..."
Leaning against a blooming cherry blossom tree, Ling Meng held a bowl of clear wine in her hand, taking a sip now and then.
Against the cherry blossom tree leaned by Ling Meng, Bayun Mo lay on a sturdy branch, his long hair hanging down, forming a dazzling black waterfall.
"Isn't it great for everyone to be lively and noisy together?"
With a string of roasted eel in his mouth, Bayun Mo said leisurely.
Although she was initially deceived by her own sister, after the anomaly, Yui still told Yakumo Muko about the cause and effect of the matter.
"Well, actually, we asked Yuzuki to do this in order to temporarily shift Reimu's attention and quietly move another shrine into Gensokyo."
For being unknowingly used by Zi Ye to cast a Dazzling Display on Ling Meng, Ba Yun Mo felt it was strange but didn't investigate the matter.
After resolving the anomaly triggered by Youmu Konpaku, spring returned to Gensokyo.
The flowers of spring are in full bloom, and Gensokyo is now a sea of cherry blossoms.
Ling Meng pointed at the chaotic scene in front of her and looked up at Bayun Mo with a glance.
"It's not right to stand up, you're lying down and talking without a waist ache. Every time the anomaly is resolved, the monsters gather immediately to have a party, but it's always me who cleans up afterwards, okay?!"
That's right, at this time, the youkai have gathered outside the Hakurei Shrine and are holding a grand banquet.
"Everyone who came to worship has run away!"
"Anyway, no one comes to worship on ordinary days, isn't that donation box always empty?"
Baiyun Mo looked at the lively banquet in front of her and said with a smile.
The three sisters of Saori are intently playing a lively tune.
Alice was performing puppetry in the center of the crowd.
Misty? Loral was busy making various barbecues on the side.
On the ground were spread many square cloths, on which sat groups of all kinds of monsters, drinking and having a great time.
Kiruno was flitting about in the crowd with a group of fairies.
Wenwen is holding a camera and taking pictures nonstop.
Mei is taking care of Yui and Ais, preventing the two little ones from sneaking a drink.
Remilia sat majestically on the throne that Hong Meiling had brought from the Scarlet Devil Mansion, with the perfect and elegant maid Sakuya standing straight beside her, holding a parasol to block out the sunlight.
Hong Meiling is hiding behind a cherry blossom tree and secretly sleeping.
Cheng seemed to be attracted by the panda toy that had been sewn up countless times in Flora's arms, and was curiously watching from the side.
Purple didn't come, but blue was taking care of orange instead.
A green-haired Kappa from Riverchild Heavy Industries was tinkering with a mechanical device that made Hachiguma Ink's eyes widen in surprise.
There are many other youkai living in Gensokyo who fully enjoy the joy brought by the banquet.
"Hey, Misty, how about bringing me a roasted night sparrow?"
Hearing Bachiko's teasing, Misty glared at him, almost throwing the barbecue skewer in her hand.
"Want to die once and see?"
"You're on the wrong set, the studio for 'Hell Girl' is next door."
Smiling wryly, Bachiko gazed blankly at the clear liquor in his hand.
He really doesn't like alcohol.
A gap opened beside him, and Bayun Mo stretched his hand into it.
On the other hand, the maid Sakuya was just unscientifically holding an umbrella and making a cup of red tea for her vampire mistress at home, but before she could add type B blood to it, the tea was taken away by a hand that suddenly stretched out from the gap next to her.
"Hmm!?"
At first, I thought it was Sakiya in purple, but when I saw that the sleeve on his hand was black, I immediately spoke to Yakumo Tsubame on the tree, saying: "Hey! Yakumo! This is what I brewed for my sister!"
"It's all right!"
Yakumo Moku, who had been infected with this habit by his older sister, waved his hand nonchalantly.
"Can't you just pause time for a bit? Brewing another cup is just a matter of seconds!"
"Mom, it's really a bad habit..."
Patty, who was intently reading a book beside her, put down the book and glanced at Yakumo Sumeragi.
"As expected, he's indeed the younger brother of the Youkai Sage; this habit is exactly the same."
"Ah la, Blue is busy taking care of Orange-chan and doesn't have time to make red tea for us... As for liquor, it's really not my cup of tea..."
Baiyun Mo held a cup of red tea in one hand and played with her own hair with the fingers of the other.
"Mo Shao, integrity..."
Lan stuffed a string of eight-eyed eel into Orange's mouth and said expressionlessly.
Think about it, when Master Mokou first came to Gensokyo, what a good person he was. Now, he's also been dyed by the big dye vat of Gensokyo into this kind of heartless and unscrupulous character...
Lan suddenly felt that he had to preserve the last bit of dignity for his family while also paying special attention to Orange, Yui and Aisu so they wouldn't be led astray. This task was extremely daunting.
Still want to run naked in the end...
"That thing is no longer needed, what's the point of keeping it."
"For some reason, I feel inexplicably angry..."
Ling Meng looked at the eight clouds of ink on his head and made a great effort to suppress the urge to take out the imperial currency to quell him.
Yagami looked at the red tea in his hand, sank into thought for a moment, and suddenly beckoned to Kiruno who was flying by.
"Hey, you idiot over there, come here for a moment!"
Kiruno heard Yakumo Suke call her and flew over with her hands on her hips and her head tilted back, saying: "What does this defeated subordinate want from me?"
"It's nothing, just wanted to see how much your strength has increased, anything goes, come at me."
"This is what you get for yourself!"
Kiruno raised her hands.
"Tremble before me, the invincible Miss Ice Symbol"
"Awesome (Icefall)!!"
The sudden chill in the air made Bayun Mo let out a sigh of admiration. After the chill passed, the red tea in his hand had turned into iced tea.
"Mm-hmm, not bad, not bad! You're one step closer to being the strongest in Gensokyo, idiot!"
"Of course!"
Kiruno's face lit up with a pleased expression, and then she ran off to play again amidst the calls of the other fairies.
Drinking "Kilron Special" iced black tea, Yakumo Satsuki's face is full of enjoyable expressions.
"This feeling is really great!"
Lan covered her face with one hand, and if you got close, it seemed like you could hear words like "I don't know him".
"Ah? Yōzi sister, you're here too?"
Unintentionally saw Youyouzi appearing under the tree at some unknown time, Bachiyun Mo smiled and greeted him.
"Is this okay? You're the main culprits of this anomaly!"
Opening her folding fan, Youyou smiled and said: "Well, let's just say I'm here to atone for my sins!"
On the other side, Youmeng held a plate of what looked like a delicious large quantity of roasted fish and knelt down on the ground, lowering his head to say: "I've brought all the dishes to go with the wine."
"I love this!"
Directly opening the gap, in the midst of a bewildered and enchanted dream, the eight clouds ink brush that had been taken from the roasted fish somehow already had an extra pair of chopsticks.
"Hey! That's a special product of Yao Meng, leave one for me!"
The little ghost floated over immediately to snatch food.
"Yuuko-neesan, didn't you say it was atonement? In that case, let me eat it!"
He dodged Youyouzi's food-snatching and said with a smile.
"Waaah... Mo brother, you're bullying me! I'm going to tell Zi that you're bullying me..."
Yu Yu's son immediately began rolling around in mid-air.
"Hey! I'm saying that this time's anomaly was solved by me from start to finish, okay? You demon, you didn't do anything and yet you're coming to steal the credit!"
Ling Meng was extremely dissatisfied and also jumped up to join the ranks of those snatching food.
A black and white figure flashed by, and the roasted fish in Yakumo Yukari's hand had already been snatched away by Marisa.
"Shouldn't I be the one with the most credit? It was clearly me who found the way to the underworld first, wasn't it?"
Marisa looked down at the roasted fish in her hand, then pulled out a small crystal bottle from her hat and began pouring some strange powder onto the fish.
"What is that?"
Yakumo Suke looked at Marisa and asked, "The aura emanating from that powder is too eerie."
"This? This is a seasoning made from a special mushroom that only grows in the Magical Forest!"
Mushrooms in the magical forest...
As soon as he thought of those colorful mushrooms, Bayun Mo immediately dispelled the urge to take back the roasted fish.
Those who eat poisonous mushrooms as their staple food, aside from Marisa, probably wouldn't have a second person...
