Tokyo Gods Only Want Beautiful Priestesses

That's it, there's no way out. Jingu couldn't think of any reason to refuse, and besides, he didn't have such a strong will to resist.

Although the system tasks require the highest possible qualifications, there are no rewards for them. You can't give up something visually appealing just for a reward, can you?

Anyway, there's no punishment for doing badly, right? And who could resist a beautiful girl like that?

Then, after a few days, we can kick Tamamo-no-Mae out and maybe we can throw a party right away?

Although that's what he was thinking, the shrine was still choosing his words. Otherwise, wouldn't accepting it readily confirm his image as some kind of god?

Even if it were true, he would absolutely not admit it.

Before he could even think of what to say, Su Woai seized the opportunity, took Shen Gong's hand, and knelt down in front of him.

"If Lord Jingu has no other questions, you can leave your mark on Ai."

Mark? What mark? Is this how you all play with priestesses? Jingu looked blank. Although he could roughly guess that it was something like using power to make a mark, he really didn't know how.

"Lord Jingu?" Suga Ai tilted her head in confusion, but then she understood.

“It’s alright, then let love guide Lord Jingu.” The girl said gently, then slightly parted her pearly teeth and bit Jingu’s finger.

She bit her fingertip hard, creating a small wound, and sipped the blood from it. Then she put the whole finger in her mouth and licked the wound carefully.

Before Jingu could even fully experience the soft touch, Suga had already released his finger. After confirming there was no bleeding, she wiped it clean with a tissue.

Is that all? Jingu looked at his perfectly intact fingers, somewhat dazed. He wanted to experience it a little longer.

“The blood donation is complete, so Ai will begin her work as a priestess.” Raising her head again, Su Ai’s pretty face, which had softened somewhat, was once again enveloped in icy coldness.

But the sharp gaze wasn't directed at the shrine, but at Tamamo-no-Mae, who had been watching the show the whole time.

Chapter 4: Is this where the advanced courses begin?

Two tigers cannot share one mountain, and a woman's territorial instincts even surpass those of a tiger.

Those who can appear in a woman's private space are either her best friend or her enemy.

No matter how elegant or gentle they may appear on the surface, their inner fighting spirit is uncontrollable; they may restrain themselves, endure, or erupt into it.

Su Wo'ai, while possessing an unparalleled sense of territory, is not a woman who is restrained or patient.

"Lord Jingu, who is this woman? And why is she here?"

If Suga was merely aloof before, now, Jingu could clearly sense a sharp hostility and aggression emanating from her.

Jingu pondered how to explain this to Suga, since Tamamo-no-Mae's reputation was quite prominent and she had already been misunderstood as a lewd god. Adding Tamamo-no-Mae would only confirm the misconception.

Or should I just say I don't know her?

Forget it, if he dared to answer like that, Tamamo-no-Mae would definitely abandon all moral boundaries and start endlessly smearing him, no less than accusing him of abandoning his wife and children.

In the battle of women, all a man needs to do is diminish his own presence. And that is how he becomes the ultimate victor.

"Yes, who am I?" Tamamo-no-Mae smiled, but there was always a chill running down Jingu's spine in that smile.

"Jingu, what am I to you?"

He casually tossed the problems and the flames of struggle to the shrine, while leaving himself room to smear the shrine in the next step.

This vixen, though she doesn't have any special feelings for the shrine now, is willing to risk the name of Tamamo-no-Mae. If this mere sixteen-year-old girl backs down here, her reputation as a femme fatale who brings ruin to the country will be shattered.

You vixen! Don't drag me into this! The shrine maiden, simultaneously being stared at by two pairs of eyes, was caught in a state of turmoil.

Why is this kind of advanced course being taught to me when I've never even been in a relationship?

In a situation like this, should we rely on our physique to pretend we know nothing?

Lust can cloud judgment! Creatures trapped in a predicament are unable to make rational attempts to save themselves, and so are men who are bewitched by the beauty before them.

The shrine had completely forgotten, or rather, selectively ignored, this action. After all, one woman was a priestess who had just made a pact with him, and the other was a mysterious and unpredictable great demon. How could he not know which was more important?

As long as he insists that he has no relationship with Tamamo-no-Mae, and even reveals the fact that she is a fox spirit, firmly standing on the side of his priestess, this chaotic situation will naturally be easily resolved.

However, blinded by greed, Jingu subconsciously failed to consider this approach, and from the very beginning, he had already made the choice of "I want it all".

"What you are to Lord Jingu is meaningless to me." While Jingu was struggling with this problem, Soga Ai threw the blame at Tamamo-no-Mae with a single sentence.

As expected of my shrine maiden! She really knows how to get to the point!

Jingu silently gave Suga a thumbs up in his heart. Although his shrine maiden's behavior at first sight confused him a bit, he would gradually get used to it and find it quite nice.

"One of the duties of a shrine maiden is to manage the private lives of the gods, and for this, she must fulfill her duties even if it goes against the gods' own wishes."

. "

Soga Ai walked up to Tamamo-no-Mae. The two were roughly the same height, both tall and slender, but Soga Ai used her stature to project an air of superiority, coldly saying:

"So whether you are a courtesan summoned by the shrine master or something else, you need my permission to stay at this shrine."

"I think you should at least believe me that I don't solicit prostitutes... and besides, I'm the owner of this shrine..."

Even at the risk of getting burned, the shrine must speak out for its integrity and its right to control.

"Lord Jingu need not speak, Ai will handle it."

When speaking to Jingu, although Soga Ai's tone remained aloof, it had a touch of gentleness. Jingu deeply suspected that he might have fallen under Soga Ai's spell.

He's clearly in complete control, but he talks like he's working tirelessly.

"Hiring prostitutes?" Tamamo-no-Mae's face darkened for a moment, then turned into a chilling sneer.

"You little brat, aren't you afraid I'll whisper in your ear?"

Don't talk nonsense. When have I ever slept with you?

Jingu said not to always try to draw attention to him.

"A clumsy lie. Love is Lord Jingu's only and first priestess. This connection cannot be faked."

Suga exposed Tamamo-no-Mae's lies, which is the source of her confidence in being so aggressive.

Tamamo-no-Mae is neither a shrine maiden nor any other deity; she is either an onmyoji (yin-yang master) or some kind of yokai (supernatural being).

If the former shrine had connections with Onmyoji, it wouldn't have threatened Hanayama-in, so it must be a monster from somewhere unknown, although it could also be a shikigami from the shrine.

However, shikigami are household servants. As the chief priestess of the gods, she is also the gods' wives. Unless another great god takes a fancy to the shrine and marries her, Soga Ai should be the true mistress of this shrine!

As for wielding absolute power, gods, in their mortal form, do not exist permanently in this world. As a priestess, a divine child, and a divine wife, she is also the god's representative in this world; shouldn't she rightfully wield absolute power?

Ultimately, this entire shrine should be managed by Suga Ai, and the gods should simply enjoy the service of the shrine maidens.

This is common sense in Yingzhou, but it doesn't apply to the shrine.

Tamamo-no-Mae covered her mouth and chuckled softly, looking incredulous, and mocked:

"You don't actually think that the Shrine operates in the mortal realm, do you? No way, no way? You've already tasted his blood and haven't realized this is a real, fleshy body?"

In the realm of the gods, the world where the gods and the dead reside is called the "world of the living," while reality is called the "world of the living."

Gods are not made of flesh and blood, but are a collection of energy and will. Therefore, they will dissipate without faith, lose themselves without the guidance of a priestess, and walk in the mortal world in a very difficult and troublesome way.

But the shrine is different. He transmigrated to this world and inexplicably became a god because of the system's reward. Therefore, he is a genuine person with a physical body, not a polymer of beliefs. Theoretically, he does not need faith to survive.

"What did you say?" Su Woai's usually aloof and indifferent face finally revealed a different expression. She opened her mouth slightly and then looked back at the Shrine in disbelief.

"Isn't this a transformation of Lord Jingu's divine body?"

Suo Ai quickly approached and then reached out and rubbed Jingu's face with both hands, but this did not allow her to distinguish between the real and the fake.

In their belief, the so-called "divine body" is the embodiment and symbol of God himself. Just as Inari Goddess herself is not a fox, but her "divine body" is a fox, and she walks in the world in the form of a fox.

The divine bodies of gods are incredibly diverse; frogs, snakes, and even stones can all become divine bodies.

In Suga Ai's eyes, she had always thought that the appearance of the shrine was just a transformed "divine body" and never thought that it was a flesh and blood body. Even though the touch was incredibly close, she couldn't believe it.

Chapter 5 The Legitimate and Justifiable Tamamo-no-Mae

After searching Jingu's body for a while, Suga Ai still looked incredulous.

"Unable to identify..."

Su Woai loosened her grip and murmured to herself. Perhaps in the distant past, great gods like San Guizi once had physical bodies, but the body decays, and those who eventually become gods will inevitably no longer possess their former physical bodies.

But neither the shrine maiden nor Tamamo-no-Mae seemed to be lying to her.

"Stop guessing. I never said I was from Yingzhou. Is it strange that I have a physical body?" Shen Gong patted her head. He himself was unsure of his own state.

Suga Ai turned her head, tidied her hair which had been ruffled by the shrine maiden, regained her cool expression, and stared intently at the shrine maiden, saying softly:

"Is the Shrine Master so desperate for a shrine maiden just to satisfy his physical needs? If that's the case, then I'll agree to let this woman stay."

"What do you mean?!" Tamamo-no-Mae almost exploded. She thought that a few words would make this girl understand her limits and stop being so aggressive, but she didn't expect Suga to say something so ambiguous.

Doesn't Tamamo-no-Mae have any dignity? What do you mean by keeping her like this? Is she some kind of sex tool?

Jingu was also affected by this statement. What does it mean to solve needs? How exactly did Huashan-in introduce Suga to her? Why does it feel like the more she washes, the dirtier she gets?

"It doesn't mean anything." Su Woai casually tossed her hair, her ears slightly red.

"I... can only do what a priestess can do. Please allow me to reconsider this kind of physical service that goes beyond what is expected."

The so-called service of the shrine maiden, although the shrine maiden is the wife of the god, since the god is not made of flesh and blood, although he has various desires no different from those of humans, he is merely merging with the soul of the shrine maiden, so the shrine maiden is also the agent of the god's will.

If the shrine has a physical body, wouldn't it have to offer up its innocence?

Even though Soga Ai had already decided that the shrine was her only god in this life and the object of her lifelong service, it would still take her some time to accept this.

After all, she was only sixteen years old.

Moreover, if one has a physical body, wouldn't that mean there's a possibility of giving birth to a divine child?

Thinking of this, Su Woai's ears turned even redder, but her expression remained aloof.

"I think you're overthinking it," Jingu said, pointing to his face, utterly exasperated.

"I'm only fourteen years old. What can a fourteen-year-old child do? I'm really not some licentious god. I'm only doing this for the first time, so why am I being labeled like this?"

Fourteen years old is not young anymore; in ancient Yingzhou, she was already old enough to have children.

Su Ai subconsciously thought of it, and then thought about whether she should buy some special products. It was one thing for her to have to take care of a child at the age of sixteen, but the child she was taking care of was not even her own, which was really infuriating.

Thinking of this, Suga glanced at Tamamo-no-Mae, and then she seemed to have discovered something.

Jingu, a fourteen-year-old boy; Tamamo-no-Mae, whose age is unknown but looks at least twenty or older.
