A person in Tokyo becomes a demon god

Chapter 199 The Fate of the Mastermind
The spirit sword was placed in his bosom.

It's certainly not some kind of 'treasure-giving' scenario, but rather:

"what!"

With one hand covering her head and the other tightly gripping the sword, Hinako Fukami, who looked no different from an 'ordinary' high school girl, dropped the naginata and stumbled backward.

The American agents who lost the 'Spirit Blade'

It is like no, it is just a cold corpse lying on the ground.

The cause of death was a naginata piercing his chest: without supernatural power, such an injury would be absolutely fatal to an ordinary person.

"Stop! Don't try to control me!"

Hinako Akamizu, wielding the 'Spirit Blade,' appeared to be in extreme pain.

Judging from her tightly covered head and the words she spoke:

Has it been possessed by the cedar tree spirit?

Commissioner Smith, who was hiding nearby, subtly shifted his gaze.

Although the specific content of the 'festival' is unknown, Sugiki's control over his colleagues, Igarashi Sakiko, and Iwai Osamu's drugs along the way was all in an effort to prevent the festival from taking place.

However, it has always been a failure.
After even the unruly 'Spirit Blade' proved unreliable, it finally couldn't sit still and took matters into its own hands.

"I'm doing this for your own good. Don't you want freedom?"

An aged voice came from 'Hinako Fukami', clearly indicating that the power of the 'Tree God' had descended.

They are fighting for control of the girl's body!

"Leave here, and you will be free—"

As soon as 'Deepwater Hinako' leaves this town, the Fox God, whose power cannot be replenished, will be defeated by the two sides: the Tree God's power, which has recovered during the 'spiritual energy revival,' and the Water Dragon God, who should have been suppressed by all forces!
To avenge the loss of his faith, the Cedar God has gone all out: he is willing to unleash the power of the Water Dragon God.

"Whether you leave or stay, don't even think about imposing your will on me!"

However, as mentioned before, who exactly is Hinako Fukami?

She may appear to be a delicate and cute girl, but she is actually strong and decisive. Once she makes up her mind, she will never change it.

"It's not up to you!!"

With a roar, Hinako Akamizu, wielding the 'Spirit Blade,' turned around trembling and pointed the blade at the 'Hinako,' or rather, 'Fox Hinako,' who wore a fox mask and had one arm in the form of a beast.

"Don't resist,"

"I'll give you your freedom after I kill this guy."

"what?!"

This unexpected turn of events surprised 'Hinako', who was wearing a fox mask.

However, before she could react, her beast-like arm began to move on its own.

"Arm, stop!"

Its claws were raised high, aimed at Hinako Akami, who was holding the 'Spirit Blade'.

"I can't control myself—"

The next second, the two 'newbies' each wielded a spirit blade and brandished their claws, charging towards each other at high speed!
They acted like mortal enemies.

Clang! !

The spirit blade was seized by sharp claws.
The two opposing forces of energy clashed violently, causing a large amount of mud and rocks to explode beneath the feet of the two high school girls. The ground undulated, and waves of earth rose more than three meters high. The immense force, like a hurricane, tumbled and surged in all directions along with the mud waves.

Smith, who was hiding behind the building ruins, had already curled up into a ball, protecting the back of his head with his hands.

boom----

crackling and popping

The shockwave swept across first.

Amidst the tremors, large amounts of soil and rocks flew overhead, scraping Smith's back painfully.

Now is not the time to worry about such things. As soon as the shockwave passed, Smith, covered in dust and dirt, endured the excruciating pain and immediately poked his head out from behind the bunker.

Since things have come to this point, death is inevitable: before dying, one should certainly understand why one is dying—otherwise, when one goes to hell and is asked by colleagues, one might say that one died in a daze.
Indeed, Smith believed he was doomed.

Four agents entered Rongzhi Hill, and now only he remains. He has even lost his weapons, and any random puppet monster could easily kill him.

Moreover, it's clear now that some of those in high positions have met their end.

"My anger and hatred."

The 'Hinako' wielding the spirit sword now spoke with the resentful sound of leaves rubbing together.

"Over the long years, it has become increasingly intense!"

At the same time, masks appeared behind her, some old, some young, some with fierce expressions, all traditional masks from the island nation, representing the ninety-nine gods enshrined in the 'Sugi Shrine' for thousands of years.

However, these 'ninety-nine gods' who had no faith and were weak had long since perished with the passage of time.

Only the most powerful cedar tree god, relying on his obsession with revenge, absorbed their power and persevered;
Revenge on those who stole His faith!
"Huh? I'd forgotten about you long ago,"

An arrogant voice echoed in the throat of the 'Hinako' wearing a fox mask.

"The leader of the trash!"

Similarly, a huge fox head appeared behind this 'youngster', its eyes glaring menacingly, looking high above.

Without a doubt, this is the 'Fox God' worshipped by the Nagahi family: as the messenger of the Inari God, it has a considerable following in every era; now that spiritual energy has revived, it still doesn't take the Sugi Tree God, which has gathered the power of the 'Ninety-Nine Gods' for hundreds of years, seriously.

"kill!"

"Roar----"

Two phantom figures floated in the sky, roaring fiercely at each other, with the mist churning, like gods and demons.

Meanwhile, the two 'youngsters' controlled by them were also engaged in a life-or-death struggle: the spirit blade pierced the palm, and the giant arm pushed the blade back.

Now, let's see which of the two 'gods' is stronger. Hmm, someone's coming.

In Smith's eyes, who was thinking, "I'm going to die anyway, so I might as well die knowing why," a young man dressed in a white haori, wearing a fox mask, and with a folding fan tucked into his waistband jogged towards him.

It is Nagahi, Yuki, and Happiness!
"Hahaha~~~"

The fox's head was overjoyed.

"Well done, my offspring."

"Kill that 'Shimizu Hinako' and finish today's celebration."

It's obvious that Nagahisa is His 'person', and as the family heir, he is quite powerful. As for that 'tree god' who is barely clinging to life?
"Useless trash, since you're tired of living, after the celebration, I'll have someone burn that mountain to the ground!" With the power of the Changxi family, it would be a piece of cake.

We didn't do that before, partly because it was unnecessary, and partly to prevent the other party from resorting to desperate measures.

"Sukeyuki, make your move!"

Now, with an excellent heir and a formidable 'wife,' the time has come to completely eradicate that old tree.

".Feel sorry,"

However, at this crucial moment, the young master wearing the fox mask did not obey orders.

"I love Hinako more than anything in the world."

“I will never hurt her: not even in the way she defies me.”

After saying that, the fox-faced young master raised his index and middle fingers.

"Hurry up and obey the command—"

"point!!"

With his shout, the world trembled!

Yes, the entire town shrouded in mist was shaken: everything became blurred and abstract, as if everything on a canvas was being irresistibly erased.

Ok?
This young master
In Hinako's mind, he was an extremely powerful figure.

After scanning with the Memory Fruit, someone had to admit that Nagaki Toshiyuki was indeed a 'powerful' person.

As an illegitimate child, he was able to return to the Changxi family, become the one in charge, suppress all opposition, and marry his childhood "white moonlight": he was far more powerful than any domineering CEO in a novel.

Moreover, his unwavering devotion to Hinako is simply the epitome of perfection.

Then so be it, let this 'play' continue:
Wow~~
The spinning world stopped, and before Commissioner Smith could even get up, he immediately looked up and glanced around:

"Is this hell?"

No wonder he said that.
Because he is now lying on a vast expanse of 'blood'.

Yes, the sky was dark and gloomy, and beneath them lay a dark red, boundless sea of ​​blood.

In the distance, a huge torii gate can be seen, indicating that this place must belong to some being's 'divine kingdom'.

Not all deities of island nations are qualified to enter Takamagahara (the Plain of Heaven). The divine realms of most 'gods' are shrines beyond the torii gates; hence the saying that passing through a torii gate brings protection. So—

"If this is the kingdom of God, it would be..."

Whose kingdom is it?
Smith's gaze fell upon the sea of ​​blood before him.

"Mr. Toshiyuki, Mr. Toshiyuki, wake up, what's wrong with you?"

The 'Hinako' wearing a fox mask was kneeling on the ground, looking helplessly at the unconscious Nagayoshi Toshiyuki above the sea of ​​blood.

"Hehehe, you foolish offspring."

The cold, mocking laugh drew 'Hinako's' attention.

As for Smith on the other side, he had already noticed it: after all, that enormous creature, three meters tall, more than ten meters long, and with seven tails behind it, would be noticed by anyone except the 'Fox Child' who was obsessed with men, even if she were blind.

Even without looking, the aura of someone in a high position was so intense, like a torch in the darkness, that it made Smith tremble all over.

Essentially, it's just a side effect of the 'Soul Fruit'.

"They actually messed up the task I assigned them."

"Mission, what mission?"

Standing up, Hinako, wearing a fox mask, stood in front of the unconscious young master and questioned him.

"Of course, it's the 'Fox's Wedding' mission."

The enormous fox with seven tails slowly opened its mouth.

Every movement of His was elegant and composed, yet His fur was covered in numerous corroded and rotten spots: clearly, the 'spiritual depletion' of this world had also had a significant impact on Him.

“Every so often, the descendants of my Changxi family will marry a woman with spiritual power.”

"In this way, we can enhance the family's power and suppress those who fail."

In a practical sense, this means that powerful families from elsewhere constantly formed marriage alliances with local influential families, thereby ensuring the stability of their own family's position.

“In the past, descendants could easily marry those women by relying on the power of magic.”

The enormous seven-tailed fox paced back and forth, its gaze falling upon the unconscious young master.

"But this guy,"

"So you're going to use 'sincerity' to move people?"

"Haha, see? He gave you so much help and freedom to think, but he still messed things up."

"What a foolish fellow. But I can't blame him; he's too young to believe in love—"

That's too immature.

"Shut up!"

The girl abruptly interrupted the seven-tailed fox's words.

"You're not allowed to laugh at someone as hardworking as Toshiyuki!!"

The fox-faced, beast-armed girl stepped forward. Thanks to Sukiyaki's magic, she had regained control of her body, therefore:
"What's wrong with love? What's wrong with being young? I won't allow you to laugh at him for living with this kind of suffering!"

Because Hinako herself could empathize, so she felt the same way.

"I'm going to beat you!"

"Hahaha, you think you can take that?"

The enormous seven-tailed fox looked up and laughed, as if it saw ants baring their fangs and claws.

"By the power bestowed upon me by my family? By the gifts of my descendants? Why can't I reclaim this power?"

The 'Fox God', who was originally preparing to reclaim the power from the other party, suddenly became filled with shock and anger.

"Because this is the power Sukiyaki gave me, now—"

The girl stretched out her arms,
The body's 'qi' surged into it.

She would use this power to uphold the dignity of the man behind her.
