"That was a close one." the mountain spirit muttered, turning heads as she exited the hobby shop. It was hard for one of her ilk to be inconspicuous, considering her height and, well,
everything. Even dressed fairly modestly in a ribbed sweater and jeans, Saikohime was an impressive specimen. However, none of that mattered now that she had the object of her current quest in her hands at last. Stopping for a moment, Saikohime lifted her sunglasses in order to allow her azure eyes to inspect the spoils. A recently released figure of "Justice Succubus", a genderswapped version of the popular anime hero, Justice Devil. A low "Fufufu~." escaped the towering woman as she inspected every curve on the figure, admiring the attention to detail in the notably more lewdified version of the hero's costume. Made all the sweeter by the fact that it was the last one in stock. On the way to the city, she'd been afraid that there would be none left, but thankfully she'd managed to get this one after searching high and low. Placing the figure's box back into the bag, Saikohime whistled cheerfully as she made her way through the streets. After all of that searching, it was time to treat herself to something tasty before going back home.
While there were times where she truly wished she didn't have to go to the city herself, there was some merit in the thrill of finally cornering your quarry after a successful "hunt". Still, having some proper worshipers to grab particularly popular items would be nice. After all, it'd be a shame if she ended up not finding the coveted Justice Succubus even after all that searching. The market for new figures was cutthroat, and she couldn't exactly go on the net and specify "Mount Fuji" as a delivery address.
Eventually, Saikohime managed to score herself some mochi ice cream, taking it with her to continue her walk. So far, everything was actually pretty quiet. And by "quiet", that mostly meant that nothing too over-the-top had happened nearby. There had been a few times when the actions of some particularly rowdy criminals have managed to inadvertently smash whole blu-ray sets or, like in one case, damage a figure with falling rubble. As such, Saikohime had become even more protective of her hauls than before. Popping a ball of mochi into her mouth, Saikohime was greeted by the taste of chocolate ice cream as she sat down at a park bench observing a fountain.
While it wasn't exactly a difficult trip for someone like her, she certainly wasn't looking forward to making the trek back to her mountain home, especially since there was probably going to be some oni bothering her about some dispute that she'd have to mediate or some such other nonsense. At least in the city, beyond her occasional duties as a freelance consultant with Outbreaker Company, no one really made a point of bothering her unless they were attempting to hit on her or take pictures with her for whatever reason.
Heaving a sigh, Saikohime enjoyed a green tea mochi ice cream as she got up, realizing that she was running low on food.
"Fufufu~. I got so excited by Just-chan, I almost forgot." she thought, pondering whether or not she had any shelf space remaining for her newest acquisition as she went to find a convenience store.
