Start By Becoming A Mangaka
chapter-539

They had arrived in Karuizawa.

Yuuki had booked a good hotel with a quite spacious room that was enough for everyone.

"Are you going to stay with us?" Yuzuru asked.

"He is going to stay with us, the room is quite large and it's a waste to open one room again," Yaeko said.

Ito nodded, "Yes, he should stay with us since he will be a family soon." She looked at him and asked, "Right?"

Yuuki nodded and felt that this grandma was trying to make him marry as soon as possible, "Yes."

"Good," Ito nodded.

Yuzuru grumbled when she heard it.

"Do you hate me that much?" Yuuki asked her.

Yuzuru didn't answer him and pouted.

Shouko caressed her head, "Let's place our luggage then we tour around this place."

Yuzuru, who heard her sister only nod at her, "Let's go, Nee-Chan." She pulled her hand and walked toward the room.

"Don't worry, she is only shy," Yaeko said.

"I hope she is," Yuuki rubbed his nose. He felt that he had become a step-father who was trying to get close to his step-children. He wasn't sure what to do since the daughter was quite big and was also his acquaintances. He only hoped this trip could smooth their relationship.

"But this is a good place," Ito said. She had always stayed in a crowded place in the city, she loved this kind of countryside scenery.

"I'm glad that you like it," Yuuki said.

Yaeko was also glad that she could bring her mother on this trip.

"Mom! Grandma! Nee-Chan! Come here!!!" Yuzuru was excited looking at the waterfall. She was holding the camera that he had given her before and started to take the picture of the beauty of nature.

Shiraito Waterfall, measuring three meters high and 70 meters wide, is located in the forests north of downtown Karuizawa. The mountain slopes above the waterfall contain a volcanic stratum on which groundwater flows before surfacing here. This explains why no river flows into the Shiraito Waterfall. Also, as only a small portion of the water flowing is rainwater, the strength of the flow stays relatively constant independent of the weather.

"Be careful! Don't run!" Yaeko reprimanded her.

Yuuki was looking around and frowned since he saw a lot of ghosts in this place. He was somewhat used to the city where it was almost impossible to see a ghost in that place since there was an Omnyoji who guarded the city but the countryside was different. However, he decided to ignore it since it wasn't harmful.

"What's wrong, Yuuki?" Shouko asked.

"Nothing, there is something on your hair, let me take it," Yuuki said and hurriedly took a beetle that was on her head.

"What is that?" Shouko asked.

"Probably a beetle," Yuuki said. He looked around and saw that Ito was talking with someone. He felt that this person was familiar, "Grandma, who are you talking with?"

Ito smiled, "Let me introduce you, this is Nurarihyon-San, he is living around here."

"Hello," Shouko nodded.

Yuuki felt weird looking at this old man. He felt that this old man wasn't a human.

"Hey," Nurarihyon smiled at them. He looked at him and asked, "Have we met each other before?"

"Maybe we met each other on the street or something," Yuuki said.

Nurarihyon nodded, "That's true, what's your name, boy?"

"Yuuki, Ichijou Yuuki," Yuuki said.

Nurarihyon nodded with a smile, "Well, Yuuki, I hope you enjoy your vacation in this place."

"Thank you," Yuuki said. He was wondering if this old man was trying to talk with grandma. He wondered whether this old man was trying to flirt with the grandma.

"Alright, I won't bother your trip, bye," Nurarihyon waved his hand and walked away.

Yuuki was wondering what he wanted to do but he didn't feel harm from him.

"Hey, hurry up! Let's take a picture together!" Yuzuru shouted.

"Yes," Shouko said.

"Let me help you, grandma," Yuuki said.

"Thank you," Ito said.

Yuuki asked someone to take a picture of everyone with this waterfall in the background. He was glad that he had a family picture for the first time.

Nurarihyon took his smoke pipe and walked slowly.

"Commander!"

"Oh, Nattou, what's wrong?" Nurarihyon asked.

"There is trouble with Tsuchigumo," Nattou said.

"Hmm," Nurarihyon frowned, "Hopefully, there is nothing happening."

"You don't want to do anything?" Nattou asked.

Nurarihyon shook his head, saying, "There is no clear evidence yet." He didn't want to hurt his old friend.

"Commander...." Nattou thought that his commander was too kind.

"Stop any human that is trying to get into that place," Nurarihyon said.

"Yes!" Nattou saluted.

It was raining outside.

The weather in the mountain was quite hard to predict, they were staying in the hotel room while talking about where they would go tomorrow.

Hearing the sound of the rain made him feel that it was the right time to ask this question.

"Yaeko, Shouko, let's do it," Yuuki said.

Yaeko and Shouko looked at each other and nodded.

"Mom, Yuzuru," Yaeko said.

"Grandma, Yuzuru," Shouko said.

"What's wrong?" Yuzuru turned her head toward them.

Ito was also looking at them curiously.

Yuuki was between both Shouko and Yaeko while holding their hands together. He felt quite nervous but at the same time, he knew that he had to do it. He knew that it was a very strange relationship but he couldn't stop it. He didn't care about other people's opinions but it was different from her family.

"Yuuki?" Ito looked at him curiously.

Yuuki looked at both Shouko and Yaeko, "Let me tell them."

Shouko and Yaeko nodded at the same time.

"Grandma, Yuzuru, I'm dating both Yaeko and Shouko, please accept our relationship," Yuuki bowed his head asking for their permission.

"Please accept our relationship," Shouko and Yaeko said at the same time.
