Chapter 766 - Nobody will hear you even if you scream at the

“Only the two of us are still here?”
“That’s right.”
“…What do you intend to do to me?” Chiaki pretended to have a weak and helpless expression.
“Ha, you’ve seen right through me.” Seiji pretended to smile evilly. “Of course, I’m going to do fun things to you.”
“No~ Somebody help me~~”
“Hahaha – nobody will hear you even if you scream at the top of your lungs!” Seiji used a classical phrase as he reached his hands out to the defenseless girl.
…….
“Ahn… No… That place is no good… Please don’t do it anymore… Wahh…
“Ah~ Ahh~~~ Ahhhhh~~~~~”
“Please stop intentionally making sounds that could be misconstrued!” Seiji smacked Chiaki’s butt slightly forcefully.
He was currently giving Chiaki a massage.
She had sat down in the same posture for far too long, so of course she needed a massage to help her body recover.
Chiaki kept making seductive sounds as if she was having sex. This made Seiji really want to do it with her right now. He forced himself to withstand the urge.
After the spanking, Chiaki became more obedient, but still made sounds from time to time.
That was because she truly felt good. It was a wonderful feeling to have her boyfriend carefully massaging her body.
Some time later, the massage ended.
“What did you experience during your Visualization?” Seiji inquired.
Chiaki had Visualized for an incredibly long period of time, yet her spiritual power had only increased by a small amount. However, this “small amount” was relative to Mika and the others. The spiritual power increase was still better than what normal spiritual ability users would experience after Visualization.
Everyone else’s second Visualization lasted about the same length of time as the previous. However, their spiritual power increase was less than last time’s.
Shika and Mayuzumi had the greatest increase in spiritual power as it was their first time Visualizing here.
It would seem that the first time’s effects would be the best when Visualizing with this Spirit Image. Would the spiritual power increase continue to lower, or would it remain steady or rise again? That would be unknown until everyone tried it out some more.
Just like everyone else, Shika and Mayuzumi also met “Seiji Kamijou” during their Visualization.
It was the same for Chiaki.
She had suppressed evil spirits together with “Seiji Kamijou”. They fought against an evil god together!
“I feel like everything was so clear during my Visualization, but now I can’t remember anything at all. I can only remember things vaguely.”
“That’s normal, since Visualization is only a dream rather than something real.”
Chiaki described what happened during her Visualization. She remembered that she had danced in front of the god.
“Dancing in front of a god… is that Kagura dance?” Seiji blinked in realization.
Kagura dance was a type of Shinto dance that was also known as the “god-entertainment dance.” As its name suggested, the Kagura dance was intended to please a god in a ritualistic fashion.
But why would Chiaki dance a Kagura dance for a fallen evil god?
“I don’t know if it was a Kagura dance or not… I wasn’t wearing miko attire during the dance. I was wearing regular Sakura Island attire, and I didn’t have any shrine maiden instruments…”
Chiaki thought about it and suddenly stood up.
“I think I remember how to dance it. Why don’t I show you?”
Chiaki then raised her hands and made an elegant pose as she slowly began to dance.
She was currently wearing a blue jacket and jeans, relatively normal attire. But once she started dancing this dance, she suddenly seemed rather devilish.
Seiji couldn’t help but imagine Chiaki wearing beautiful Sakura Island attire while dancing this same dance. He felt that she would be so charismatic!
Seiji knew quite well that Chiaki was a skilled dancer.
Chiaki’s dancing performance during the Genhana High School festival in the play had truly stunned him, giving him a deep impression that seemed crystal clear to him even now.
There was no sound of song like that time, nor was Chiaki currently wearing a costume like in the play. Her dancing just like this was still movingly beautiful.
Seiji happily enjoyed the show. But, suddenly, he felt something in the atmosphere begin to change. Not only that, his system notified him that someone was now cultivating within his dojo!
Chiaki’s dance was actually a type of cultivation!? Seiji widened his eyes in surprise.
At this moment, Chiaki was immersed in a wondrously subtle sensation.
When she started this dance, she already began to feel an indescribable subtle sensation that seemed to make her feel like she was really dancing as a miko in a shrine.
The more she danced, the more wondrous this sensation became. She unknowingly became completely immersed in it.
She faintly felt as if she could see pink cherry blossoms falling down in large patches…
Seiji was stunned by the sight.
Imperceptibly, the scenery had changed to being outside. He saw blooming cherry blossoms sending their petals falling everywhere. Chiaki danced elegantly while wearing beautiful Sakura Island attire. She was breathtakingly beautiful as she danced with light steps. Her eyes seemed seductive, holy, pure, and alluring all at once.
Seiji had experienced something similar before—when he went to Blood Moon Mountain together with Miyuki Sakuraku!
At that time, the national idol’s singing made him feel like the entire world had changed around him… and this time, his girlfriend’s dance had taken him into this illusionary scene.
Was this a type of dancer ability? Had Chiaki Awakened?
Chiaki had said that she somehow knew this dance during her Visualization. Learning a new power like this… did this also count as Awakening?
Nobody else in his knight order had ever learned a new ability like this before… at least not until now. Chiaki was the first example.
As long as Seiji resolved his mind, he knew that he could awaken himself from this illusion. However, Seiji allowed himself to continue watching the dance and quietly enjoy the show.
Chiaki gradually stopped dancing as she was now tired.
Seiji gave her a hearty round of applause.
Chiaki smiled while looking at him. But, her smile soon froze over.
That was because she saw flower petals!
Pink cherry blossom petals were scattered all over the dojo’s floorboard.
Were those petals… real? Chiaki looked in astonishment at the petals.
She had thought that these flower petals were only in her imagination. Yet, they had now appeared in Seiji’s dojo!
But right as she watched the petals, the cherry blossom petals gradually became transparent and then disappeared.
What was going on?
“You have Awakened, Chiaki.” Seiji told this to her.
“I’ve Awakened?”
“Yep. Can’t you feel it for yourself?”
Chiaki blinked and recalled what she felt while dancing just earlier. Only then did she realize that something seemed extraordinary.
“But, I was only dancing…”
“The important part about your dance… is that you were fully immersed in the dream world while dancing this dance to suppress the evil spirits. And, surprisingly, it was effective in reality as well.” Seiji tilted his head slightly. “Even I feel that this is surprising. Nobody else has learned a new ability like this before. You’re the first. But no matter what, you’ve shown a spiritual ability, which means that you count as having Awakened. Congratulations.”
While congratulating her, he clapped his hands again.
“Saying that I count as having Awakened… it sounds rather strange,” Chiaki commented.
She didn’t feel like the impact had hit her yet. Although she saw flower petals and realized that her dance just now was something extraordinary, her mind still hadn’t wrapped itself around the concept.
‘I really have a spiritual ability now? What if I could only perform that dance this once?’
“Could it be that I could only do it this one time? Showing off a spiritual ability was just a coincidence… Or maybe because I was here in this special dojo…” Chiaki said her own thoughts out loud.
Seiji didn’t dare to confidently state anything in response, since this was also his first time seeing such an “Awakening”. He didn’t know what her situation would be like.
“How about you try and dance again after some rest?”
“Okay.”
After Chiaki rested for a while, she danced for a second time.
However, that subtle sensation from the first time didn’t appear again. Nor were there any flower petals.
Chiaki was certain that she didn’t dance the dance incorrectly. However, she couldn’t feel anything at all apart from it being an ordinary dance.
Seiji observed closely from the side. He also saw that Chiaki’s dance was identical to last time, but the atmosphere didn’t change. Nor was he brought into an illusionary scene this time.
Chiaki danced for quite a while, but things remained the same. She wasn’t able to activate her dancing power!
What was going on here?
