Marisa was a somewhat scatterbrained girl.

But being scatterbrained didn't mean she was an unromantic blockhead.

Compared to Chu Bai, who was as dense as a steel beam, she was quite sensitive when it came to matters of the heart.

Clearly, this was the legendary scene of a love triangle.

And those caught in the middle were all people she knew!

Marisa quickly picked up a watermelon from a nearby female villager and started watching the drama while munching on it.

She was also curious about what choice Chu Bai would make.

As a result…

Chu Bai didn't choose anyone, and instead chose her?

Feeling Kaguya's scrutinizing gaze and her best friend Xiao Ai's resentful expression.

Marisa was taken aback and waved her hands repeatedly:

"Hey, Xiao Bai, you can't just choose randomly!"

"Hurry up and seriously pick one, don't draw the fire to me!"

"But I am choosing seriously."

Chu Bai directly pulled Marisa over.

Because the black pointed witch hat was poking her chin a bit, he simply took off Sasha's hat and put his arm around her.

Marisa was truly shocked this time, and even her speech became a bit stuttering:

"Why are you choosing me? We have a completely innocent relationship!"

"You choose… you choose… if you keep choosing me, I'll disappear!"

"Huh? Of course, our relationship is innocent."

Chu Bai was a little puzzled:

"Sitting with you is to give you some pointers on magic techniques."

"After all, I promised to help you become stronger, but I've been busy lately and haven't had much time to guide you."

"So, I want to teach you more during this time, is that not okay?"

Looking at Chu Bai's clear eyes.

Marisa finally understood that Chu Bai was not using her as a shield.

Rather, this guy didn't even realize the existence of the love triangle.

Sure enough, Chu Bai then looked at Kaguya and Alice:

"Don't fight, you two. I know Kaguya is just playing a prank, and Xiao Ai is a little unhappy with Kaguya because I fought alone last time."

"I know you're both doing it for my own good, but don't fight over me like this in public."

"Otherwise, people will misunderstand that you both like me and are putting on a love triangle that only appears in anime."

It's not a misunderstanding!

This is clearly a real love triangle!

Marisa was held in his arms, looking up at Chu Bai's chin helplessly.

But on the other side, Kaguya reacted.

That's right, she didn't even like Xiao Bai, so why was she arguing so fiercely?

It was originally just a prank, and she should have stopped when she saw Alice's flustered appearance as her opponent.

Why was she really taking it so seriously?

Did she really fall in love with Chu Bai?

Thinking of this, Kaguya shook her head repeatedly.

No, no, she didn't like Chu Bai, after all, they were just pure brothers.

It was just that she got carried away with the prank and didn't react for a moment.

So, Kaguya suppressed her fluctuating emotions and put on an elegant smile again:

"It seems that I was a little too worked up."

"Since you would rather communicate magic with Marisa, then I won't disturb you."

Saying this, she finally let go of Chu Bai's arm.

Seeing her do this, Alice hesitated for a moment and also let go of Chu Bai.

After all, it wasn't good to be entangled like this in public.

Moreover, for Xiao Ai, who was socially awkward, being able to do what she just did had already used up all her courage.

Only Chu Bai was still completely unaware, continuing to stroke Marisa's hair and chat with her about magic knowledge:

"Okay, you can ask me about any knowledge you don't understand recently."

"But Sasha, your hair feels really good…"

"Don't touch my hair like you're petting a dog!"

Marisa protested:

"And compared to being here, I'd rather see you sitting with Xiao Ai."

"Huh? Why?"

Chu Bai asked in confusion:

"Don't you want to chat with me about magic?"

"I recently learned about the Seven Luminaries Treasures from Patchouli, and I have new progress in the study of the origin of magic."

"…Eh? The origin of magic?"

Marisa suddenly paused.

Logically speaking, she was Alice's wingman and should do her best to bring them together, letting Chu Bai sit next to Alice.

But Chu Bai had actually made further progress in the study of the origin of magic!

This was the origin of magic. If she could deepen her understanding or learn some efficient ways to operate magic power, it would definitely be much easier to fight bullet hell battles with Reimu next time!

It might even be possible to catch her off guard and play a dirty trick?

Marisa swallowed and wavered back and forth between her best friend's trust and the temptation of magic.

But in the end, feeling the warmth of Chu Bai's palm and breathing in the inexplicably pleasant scent on his body, Marisa made a decision:

"T-Then… then… then I'll just sit here."

"Okay, no problem."

Chu Bai smiled and stroked her hair again.

Marisa looked away, feeling a little guilty and not daring to look at Alice.

I'm sorry, Xiao Ai…

It's not that your best friend isn't being a good person, it's just that magic is too tempting.

Next time, next time I will definitely help you pursue Chu Bai!

I definitely will!

……

……

As an experienced magician, coupled with her experience as a language teacher, Chu Bai's teaching ability was naturally beyond doubt.

Under his guidance, Marisa quickly got into the swing of things, and her mastery of magic techniques continued to improve.

And as time went by, more and more people arrived at the house fighting event.

In addition to the standard passerby teams, Chu Bai also saw many teams with different styles.

For example, Fujiwara no Mokou and a white-haired woman were walking over while talking and laughing.

For example, a pair of sisters wearing red clothes were yawning with tired faces.

There was also Medicine, whom he had met at Eientei before, and her teammate was an unfamiliar green-haired girl.

As for further away, there was even a huge robot rushing straight over.

Sitting on top of the robot was a Kappa with an excited expression, and a green-haired girl wearing strange hair accessories.

"Wow, that Gundam team from last time is here again."

Chu Bai immediately showed a complaining look:

"They're actually participating with such a powerful Gundam, haven't they been disqualified?"

"…I think your blood corpse is more of a violation than Gundam."

Marisa said with squinted eyes:

"After all, Gundam is controlled by humans, so it's still somewhat rational."

"But your blood corpse is always opening its mouth wide, and there's always a risk of eating people."

Chu Bai immediately felt a little guilty:

"Well, my blood corpse is very well-behaved, it only eats dozens of people a day at most…"

"Where is that well-behaved! It's already terrifying enough, okay!"

Along with Marisa's complaints.

The two girls piloting the Gundam also entered the arena.

After another period of time, the contestants for the competition finally arrived.

Hakurei Reimu, as the representative of the referees, walked to the crowd with a thick manuscript in her hand, looking very lazy.

"Hey, hey, I'm Hakurei Reimu, the representative of the referees for the preliminary round."

She held the microphone borrowed from Kourindou and showed a very unmotivated look:

"Forgot the beginning, forgot the middle, forgot the end."

"In short, the preliminary round of the house fighting event officially begins, I wish you all good luck…"

"Don't forget your lines!"

Chu Bai couldn't help but complain loudly:

"You're the representative of the referees, you should at least say a few words of blessing!"

Reimu curled her lips:

"Well, anyway, it's just various unimportant blessings, so I won't waste words."

"In short, let's get straight to the point, I'll announce the content of this competition."

Saying this, she flipped through more than a dozen pages of the manuscript in a row and jumped directly to the last page:

"The focus of this competition is—"

In the expectant gazes of everyone.

Reimu suddenly changed her tone:

"If you want to read books, go to Suzunaan, if you want to find books, go to Suzunaan, if you want to borrow books, go to Suzunaan!"

"Suzunaan, the best choice for book lovers!"

Boom.

The contestants were immediately struck by lightning.

Don't do advertising at this time!

Reimu was also quite helpless, this was a requirement of the cooperation partner, there was really no way.
