Gensokyo Detective, but surrounded by Shura Field

As expected, Marisa doesn't admire him at all.

It's no wonder, since his master once said that he's the type that girls don't like.

From now on, he should just focus on researching magic; romance is just a waste of time.

"Then let's go."

Chu Bai regained his senses:

"By the way, I can't fly right now, so the space behind your broom is mine."

"No problem, Da★Ze~"

Marisa got on her broom, patting the back seat like a biker hitting on a girl:

"Master... Ah, no, Little White, please have a seat!"

"Yeah, yeah, you're getting it!"

Chu Bai grabbed Marisa's waist and rode on the broom.

Magic flowed, and with a slingshot start, the two flew towards the Kirisame Residence.

...

...

Marisa's home is also in the Forest of Magic, barely neighbors with Alice.

It's about a dozen minutes from the Beast Path of Youkai.

The broom landed, and the door opened.

Marisa waved to Chu Bai with a grin:

"Welcome to my home!"

"...This is your house?"

Chu Bai stopped as soon as he entered the living room.

All he could see were scattered books, various clothes, miscellaneous items, broken tools, and even a few mushrooms emitting fluorescent light on the floor.

And at Chu Bai's feet were a pair of blue and white panties and two white socks. They seemed to have been washed, as they were emitting a faint fragrance.

Marisa blushed and hurriedly pushed Chu Bai out.

After a clattering of cleaning, she invited Chu Bai back in.

Well, it was still messy, but at least it looked like a home.

"Marisa, I have something to say, but I don't know if I should..."

"Then don't say it."

Marisa pulled down her hat, covering her somewhat shy face.

As a girl, she must feel quite embarrassed to have a man see such a sight.

"Okay, then let's get straight to the point."

Chu Bai's expression was serious, and his voice was earnest.

Feeling the serious atmosphere, Marisa also straightened her attitude.

"The point... is to guide me in magic?"

"No."

Chu Bai rubbed his hands together:

"The point is, of course, that computer. That top-notch configuration is quite valuable, wasn't it you who said you'd give it to me?"

"???"

Marisa staggered and fell to the ground.

Master, can you not be so greedy!

...

...

"Well, first, let me see you release some magic."

After actually receiving the top-of-the-line computer.

Chu Bai was satisfied and took Marisa to an open space.

This is where she usually practices magic, and basically no one comes here except for the occasional lost Mao Yu.

"You don't need to release your strongest spell, just release something you use often."

"No problem~★"

Marisa took out her Mini-Hakkero, compressed her magic power, and aimed it directly at the sky.

"Love Sign - 'Master Spaaaaaark'!"

Light energy gathered.

Heat was compressed.

Extremely dazzling light and heat, after being concentrated to the extreme, immediately burst out with a huge amount of magic power.

Boom————

A huge pillar of light shot into the sky, even scattering a few clouds.

After the dazzling sparks disappeared, Chu Bai, who had watched the whole process, couldn't help but applaud.

"Amazing, as expected of a magician who specializes in light and heat."

"Hehehe..."

Marisa smiled smugly.

She still has considerable confidence in the magic cannon.

Although it's not her exclusive secret, Marisa considers herself an expert in the development of light and heat.

"So, Little White, what do you think..."

"Love Sign - 'Master Spark'."

"??????"

Marisa's voice stopped abruptly.

Because right in front of her, Chu Bai had already stretched out his right hand, also aiming at the sky.

The same light energy gathered.

The same heat was compressed.

Chu Bai didn't even use the Mini-Hakkero, but purely relied on hand-to-hand combat to call upon magic power.

Boom——

A light pillar about the size of a stick shot into the sky. Although it wasn't as thick as Marisa's, it already had a similar shape.

Marisa stared blankly at the night sky, blankly watching the light pillar gradually dissipate.

This?

It was released successfully?

Just watching it once, and he completely released the magic cannon spell that she had worked so hard to practice?

"I roughly understand."

Chu Bai retracted his palm, as easily and casually as if he had just yawned:

"And based on observation, I also have a training plan for you... What's wrong?"

Marisa had already fallen to the ground.

Her eyes were a little lost, and her expression was full of confusion.

"Little White, is this the difference between a genius and an ordinary person?"

"I've been training so hard for so long, staying up all night every night to train... but you just looked at it once and completely mastered it..."

Chu Bai realized that Marisa was hit by his talent.

He was silent for a moment, then walked up to Marisa.

"If you're hit this hard, then you're really not suitable for practicing magic."

"Practicing magic is not for blindly comparing, but for exploring the mysteries of magic and pursuing power beyond yourself."

"And shouldn't you be happier the better my talent is?"

"After all, we don't have the name of master and disciple, but we have the reality of master and disciple."

"The better my talent is, the more effective techniques I can teach you, helping you defeat Reimu."

Marisa came back to her senses and looked at Chu Bai, who was reaching out to her.

After only a slight pause, the cheerful expression of the past returned to the girl's face.

"You're right, Little White, I was being narrow-minded."

"My current goal is to defeat Reimu. The better your talent, the more you can teach me!"

"That's right!"

Chu Bai gave a thumbs up:

"Let's go back to your house now. I've developed a training plan for magic practice that's perfect for you to learn."

"I'll teach you the theoretical knowledge first, and then you can slowly start practicing when you have the chance."

"Alright!"

...

...

After that, they returned to Marisa's house.

Chu Bai took out a blackboard from somewhere, and then took out chalk and wrote on it.

Various magic formulas, basic magic theories, and complicated magic circles and circuits were presented in front of Marisa.

For Marisa, who had not received systematic training, this was all quite valuable knowledge.

So they gradually became more and more excited as they learned, completely ignoring the passage of time.

Until the end, they were both exhausted from studying all night and collapsed on the sofa.

Chu Bai's sleeping position was in the shape of a person.

Marisa leaned in Chu Bai's arms and also fell into a deep sleep.

From an outsider's perspective, they looked like lovers in love, even sleeping together...

...

...

At the same time.

Not far from Marisa's house.

Alice was carrying a plate of freshly baked cupcakes, walking towards Marisa's house with light steps.

She got up early today and tried baking some cakes with a new recipe.

Because she didn't control the quantity well, the finished product was a little too much.

But it doesn't matter, she can share it with Marisa, and she can also ask her how it tastes.

If it's delicious, she'll make some for Chu Bai next time.

Thinking like this, Alice's pace became lighter and lighter.
