After a while, Shido saw that some of the people stopped, panting, and seemed to have no energy to run.

It was only about half of the course!

Moreover, the bald-headed villain was obviously unable to move as well. Shido didn't understand: How could he dare to mock others with such little strength?

Mukuro grimaced at the man, wanting to ridicule him. However, the bald-headed villain was too tired to notice it.

After running for a while, more and more people became exhausted and stopped. In the end, Shido and Mukuro completed the challenge, and they were the...

2nd place!

Mukuro was a little disappointed, whether it was because they didn't win or the time to lie on Shido's comfortable back was over.

But it didn't matter. They had enough fun, and, even though they didn't win, there were still gifts for consolation.

"What is this......"

Mukuro looked at Shido in confusion.

"Chestnut roll cake."

Shido recognized it at a glance

Shido recognized it at a glance. Because he had to take care of so many foodies in his family, he could now be regarded as an expert in gourmet food and desserts.

Moreover, this chestnut roll cake seemed to be a famous product of a well-known dessert shop in Shikoku, but it was obviously not fancy enough to compare with the tickets to Raging Water.

But this was not a problem for Shido at all. If Mukuro really wanted to go to the water park, he would just buy the tickets and go.

After eating the chestnut roll cake, the two walked into the Shinto Shrine. Because of the enormous amount of stairs, many tourists couldn't make it to the top.

As a result, there were not as many tourists here as there were in Kanda Shrine, but there were still quite a few people who made it here. After all, footsteps and sweat could be regarded as sincerity shown to the gods, and they were willing to commit all the way, which was quite admirable.

Shido looked around and paid special attention to whether there was any strange sign near the Money Box, but he couldn't find it. He even shouted the words "Tree of Life" from time to time, but no one or god responded to his words.

"Nushi-sama?"

Mukuro frowned slightly and asked with concern.

"It seems... it's not here!"

Shido gave a wry smile.

"No, no! Don't think too much, let's continue our date..."

Mukuro chuckled lightly. Being able to date Shido alone was already very good for her.

"Okay."

Shido nodded, regained his mood, and reminded himself that he was here on a date with Mukuro.
