Kikankuji Temple, or the Golden Pavilion, is located north of Kyoto. The place is a popular tourist spot, both in Japan and abroad. Kikankuji Temple has three floors; the top two are covered with gold foil. On a sunny day, the gold foil would reflect the light perfectly and make the building look magnificent.

Kikankuji Temple was built by the lake. After entering winter, the lake would freeze over, and the scenery in that place would become even more beautiful and lively with the addition of the white color of the snow. Because of that, the area would be filled with many visitors during the holiday season.

"The temple is magnificent. Unfortunately, we can't get any closer to that building." Wang Ruyue said in admiration when he saw the snow-covered Kikankuji temple. But she felt disappointed that she couldn't get close to the building and could only enjoy the view from afar.

"We can't do anything about it. The ban has been in place for a long time to prevent tourists from getting close because not all visitors who come to Kikankuji Temple will behave properly, and it is feared they will damage the structure." The one who responded to Wang Ruyue's words was Kirika.

As a native, she was far more knowledgeable about Kyoto's tourist attractions than the others. So Kirika would act as a tour guide for them. Setsuka and the others didn't mind that. Fortunately, Kirika was wearing a mask. If she came to that place without disguising her face, they would be mobbed by visitors who wanted to ask for autographs and photos with Kirika.

On the other hand, Tenku walked slightly behind them to take in the sights of the area. This was his first time coming to Kikankuji Temple. So it's natural that Tenku wants to enjoy that place's beauty, especially in winter.

Setsuka and the others had taken many photos with the Kikankuji temple and the beautiful scenery around it as the background. Of course, Tenku also had to accompany them. He had to take turns taking pictures with Setsuka, Wang Ruyue, and Kaede. But Tenku didn't do that with Kirika because he had to keep her distance from her, according to her plan.

Kirika was sullen when she saw Tenku's closeness to Wang Ruyue and Setsuka. But she couldn't do anything about it because it was her idea.

As the girls enjoyed the beautiful scenery at Kikankuji Temple, Tenku released his divine consciousness and covered the area. He found that some visitors kept watching them.

Tenku knew those people because they had followed them from the Miyazaki residence to that place. He is sure they are people Chizen sent to monitor him and Kirika.

If the spies saw Tenku trying to get close to Kirika, they would immediately report it to Chizen. He could also notice that they were taking photos and videos of him with their smartphones.

It won't attract the attention of the people around them because almost all visitors who come to Kikankunji temple hold smartphones to capture the view. Tenku had to admit that person was a professional in their job as a spy.

(As expected of the son of the Kinzoku family. He hired not just one professional spy to watch over us but three people)

Tenku sighed and ignored the guys. Then he took candid photos of the girls because their natural expressions were so beautiful, especially for Setsuka and Wang Ruyue. But that is subjective because Tenku has romantic feelings for them. After all, Kaede and the other Kirika are no less beautiful than the two girls.

Time passed quickly, and the day had turned to noon. Tenku and the others had left Kikankuji temple because they didn't intend to spend too long there. They decided to find a nearby restaurant and have lunch since it was almost evening.

"Where are we going next?" Kaede asked after finishing the food on her plate.

"Hmm... I also don't know many tourist destinations in Kyoto." Tenku shook his head and turned his eyes to Kirika.

"What do you think, Kirika? Can you recommend the best sightseeing spots for winter in Kyoto?" Tenku asked.

Kyoto has many tourist attractions, but it is impossible to visit them all. Thus, he asked for Kirika's opinion. That girl should know the best tourist spots to spend their winter.

"You asked the right person! We should go to the Arashiyama bamboo grove because it's wonderful in winter." Setsuka said excitedly, and her expression irritated the three girls.

"Did you forget, Kirika? You must keep your distance from him and eliminate Chizen's thoughts about Tenku trying to get close to you. If you put on a face like that when talking to him, wouldn't that make the spies watching you grow suspicious of your relationship with him?" Setsuka warned Kirika seriously.

"Yes. It will only create misunderstandings. If I remember correctly, you said you wanted to show those spies that you had nothing to do with Tenku. So please act like an acquaintance and try not to be too friendly with him. After all, you and Tenku are just friends." Wang Ruyue added.

"Ah, you're right. I apologize." Kirika panicked, but she quickly regained her composure. She was too happy that Tenku asked her opinion about their next destination and forgot they were being watched.

"You don't need to worry about that. Those people did not come with us into the restaurant. This place is quiet because we came late for lunch. They seem afraid that we will notice them. So we can chat freely without having to care about them." Tenku didn't want the girls to get too uptight and not enjoy their tour, knowing someone was spying on them.

Those people had been watching Tenku since he left Kirika's house, but they didn't know he was doing the same to them. Tenku continuously released his spiritual sense to monitor the spies.

"Is that true?" Kirika asked and then looked around the restaurant. She saw several men and a family eating. At first, Kirika and the girls thought that one of them was Chizen's spy. They know they are being watched but don't know who is doing it because the girls don't have spiritual powers like Tenku.

"Yes. So you don't have to think about those people, and you can talk as you please." Tenku nodded in response to Kirika's words.

"That's good! I thought I had made the spy misunderstand our relationship and reported it to Chizen." Kirika sighed in relief after hearing that. Then she smiled and looked at Tenku.

"So, how about my suggestion? Are we visiting the Arashiyama bamboo grove, or do you want to go somewhere else in Kyoto? Wherever you go, I will go with you and be your tour guide." Kirika said and blushed. She squeezed her voice and summoned the courage to tell her last sentence as it vaguely conveyed her feelings for Tenku.

"Yeah, I think it's a good tourist spot. I've been there but not in winter. I want to see the scenery in the Arashiyama bamboo grove when it is covered in white snow." The one who replied to Kirika's words was Setsuka.

"If you think that place is a good tourist destination, we will go there. What do you think?" Tenku asked Wang Ruyue and Kaede. he had never been to the Arashiyama bamboo forest and wanted to see the sights there at least once. But Tenku had to ask the girls for their opinion because they would be the ones to decide.

"I agree with Setsuka. I've also been to the Arashiyama bamboo grove, and it's beautiful." Kaede was the first to reply.

"I will follow your decision because I don't know much about tourist attractions in Kyoto. If you think it's a good place, I'd love to visit the Arashiyama bamboo grove." Wang Ruyue agreed with Tenku and the others' decision because they were Japanese and understood more about the country's tourist spots.

"Okay! It's decided! We're going to the Arashiyama bamboo grove!" Kirika said excitedly. She was happy because Tenku accepted her recommendation even though she had to ask the other three girls for their opinion.

"Why do you look so excited? Are you planning something?" Kaede narrowed her eyes at Kirika and asked. She was suspicious of the girl's reaction. Setsuka and Wang Ruyue also felt the same way as Kaede and turned their attention to Kirika to wait for her explanation.

"I know what's on your mind, but I didn't plan anything. Besides, my space is limited because of the spies sent by Chizen to keep an eye on me and Tenku." Kirika replied helplessly.

This time she didn't have any plans as she was having difficulty getting close to Tenku under the watchful eye of the person spying on her. Kirika felt a bit irritated with Setsuka and the others because they would suspect her no matter what she did.

"Then why do you look so happy? Isn't the Arashiyama bamboo grove a place you should visit often?" Setsuka couldn't immediately believe Kirika's words because that girl was cunning.

If Wang Ruyue is the rabbit, Kirika is the fox, and the two are strong rivals as they have their charms and ways of winning Tenku's heart. On the other hand, Kaede is a cat, but she isn't dangerous for Setsuka because she still can't be honest with her feelings.

"I'm happy because I can spend winter holidays with boys and girls my age. Although our relationship is not good, we can be called friends. The last time I went to the Arashiyama bamboo grove was when my parents were still alive. After that, I went to that place alone.

My manager once accompanied me there. But I can't enjoy it because the age difference is big enough, and our chats are out of sync. So isn't it natural for me to react that way?" Setsuka smiled and showed a lonely expression. Setsuka and the others felt pity when they heard that.

"Alright, we should go to the Arashiyama bamboo forest now because it's getting late." Tenku said after feeling that the atmosphere of the place had become heavy after they heard Kirika's answer.

Setsuka and the girls nodded in response and quickly left the restaurant. The spies Chizen sent immediately followed Kirika and co after seeing them exit the premises.

It only took Tenku and the others about thirty minutes to arrive at their destination, but they still had to walk to reach the Arashiyama bamboo grove. Upon arriving at the location, Tenku released his spiritual sense to monitor Chizen's spies. But then he frowned because he found something unexpected in that place.

"A goblin?"
