Little Chuuya's Growing Taller Plan

[Upcoming story: When a Human Jujutsu Sorcerer Wants to Raise a Ghost] One day, ordinary Yokohama overlapped with extraordinary Yokohama. Eight-year-old Chuuya, who had no supernatural ability, ran away from home over a cup of milk and ended up in extraordinary Yokohama. At the Armed Detective Agency, Kunikida warned everyone: “We have to erase every trace and do everything we can to keep them apart. No, under no circumstances can we let them meet!” A few days later, a Mafia executive personally led a group to kick open the Agency's front door. “Where's that bastard Dazai? Get him out here!” Then he witnessed the mini Chuuya wiping Dazai's face. Chuuya: “...” That day, an earthquake hit Yokohama, and the Armed Detective Agency collapsed. Little Chuuya visited the Port Mafia. He watched the subordinates in black suits and sunglasses bow respectfully to the grown-up Chuuya, their eyes filled with curiosity. Then he leaned over and whispered, “Big brother, is that really me all grown up? Why is he so short...?” Dazai whispered back, “Because he doesn't drink his milk, gets angry all the time, and drinks red wine until he gets drunk.” Little Chuuya looked alarmed. “Will drinking milk make me taller?” Dazai: “Not necessarily...” Before he could finish, the grown-up Chuuya, walking ahead of them, suddenly turned around and shouted, “Hey, Dazai! What are you teaching him?” “I'll grow taller!” Little Chuuya looked at the grown-up Chuuya and promised. “If I get taller, you'll get taller too, so let's drink milk together starting today!” Chuuya: “...Huh?” Later, Chuuya came to hate two more things: one was brats, and the other was milk.

Next up: When a Human Jujutsu Sorcerer Wants to Raise a Ghost. It's already in my collection, so add it to your favorites! Blurb: Youyi is a ghost who lives deep in the mountains. One day, he ventured down from the mountains for one reason and one reason only: he had finally eaten all the food there. He planned to find another mountain to live in seclusion, but by a twist of fate, he ended up on a journey to the city to search for his younger brother. “My younger brother's name is Yuji. Pink hair, fierce eyes, and a silly-looking face. They say he's the vessel of the King of Curses. Have you seen him?” Youyi handed a portrait to Nanami, a salaryman and jujutsu sorcerer just off work. Nanami: “...” -1- During his stay at Nanami's house, Youyi was influenced by TV dramas and believed that a reunion would be a happy, beautiful moment. Reality, however, was nothing like his ideal. Looking at his younger brother, who had torn his clothes, climbed onto the railing, and was laughing wildly while shouting, “I want women!”, Youyi decided to give his brother a “loving smackdown.” When his brother woke up, Youyi said earnestly, “Little brother, take your big brother's advice. People aren't good to eat.” Yuji: “...” -2- Lately, Nanami had been wondering: How much does it cost to take care of a ghost? He looked over at the dining table. Youyi was kneeling on his chair, serving Yuji food and reminding him, “Little brother, you're still growing, so eat more. Tomorrow I'll take you shopping for clothes. Anything other people's little brothers have, I'll buy for you too.” “...” Nanami looked away and considered a different question: How much does it cost to take care of a ghost and the ghost's little brother? -3- Some time later, someone came across this question online: Question: What should I do if the ghost I want to raise only has eyes for his little brother? Answer: Get rid of the little brother and take his place! Nanami, who received the reply: “...” I don't want to be his little brother. I want to be his man. Couple: Nanami Theme: If something is meant for you, it will come to you. If it isn't, don't force it.
