Becoming a god in Tokyo starts in the bathroom

Under the strange, wide-eyed gaze of that believer, and through her own wavering thoughts, Anzu Matsuori managed to convey her intentions completely!

The Inayoshi Association's attitude is simply not sincere enough!

This apology to the church is not sincere enough!

This first apology was not sincere enough!

"Your Holiness, is this amount of apology really not enough to show our sincerity?"

He was receiving Anzu Matsuori's words, and would relay them all to the Inagi-kai's followers shortly afterward, and asked questions cautiously and haltingly.

This was the first time he had ever felt so insecure since becoming a believer in the system.

A hundred billion yen!

Such high compensation, and it's considered a lack of sincerity?!

Has the church's status fallen to this level?!

They clearly grew up alongside the church, so is it possible that the church secretly grew taller while they were sleeping?

His Holiness the Pope's words sounded like something out of a magical reality to him.

In fact, in order to remember the few things the Pope said, he even forgot about politeness and took out his phone to type it down in a notepad.

Because almost every word the Pope said left him completely bewildered and unable to comprehend its meaning!

"Phew~ Yes! Tell them exactly what: The church already knows what role the Inagi-kai played in the previous incident of vandalism. The church isn't against compensation, but the current amount doesn't reflect the Inagi-kai's sincerity!"

"If the list of apologies brought next time still fails to demonstrate the Inayoshi-kai's sincerity, then the church will confirm the Inayoshi-kai's hostility and will take military action against them!"

Anzu Matsuori took another deep breath and spoke these words with a heavy and serious expression.

Within two sentences, her face even flushed red.

It's not that she's unwell, but rather that these two sentences suggest that the Inagi-kai has an insatiable appetite!

She explicitly stated that the compensation of 300 billion yen was not sincere enough, so a compensation that is sincere would obviously be at least double, or even trillion yen!

Uh, okay.

In fact, even when Anzu Matsuori spoke up at this moment, she didn't dare to really think about the trillion-dollar level.

But even if we convert 100 billion yen into Japanese yen, that's still several hundred million US dollars.

Converted to the currency of this major Eastern power, it amounts to a full five billion yuan!

Such a large amount of assets is unbelievable, even for a conglomerate.

The current value of 300 billion yen is equivalent to 15 billion yuan!

The fact that several of their churches were vandalized and they were offered billions in compensation is as unbelievable as a war god returning with an army of 100,000 to build a luxurious doghouse for his daughter in every city!

Then, Pope Anzu Matsuori actually rejected this price!

"Your Holiness, are you really not going to reconsider? Or perhaps you could discuss it with the other priestesses. If we just give this direct reply and they simply refuse to compensate us, our church will suffer a huge loss!"

The system follower first obediently wrote down Anzu Matsuori's words on his phone. After recording the entire content word for word, he raised his head and, quite fearfully, advised Pope Anzu Matsuori.

To be honest, Daoji Club's move, which showed their utmost sincerity, was truly impressive.

Judging from the behavior of this loyal believer, it is likely that none of the system's believers would object to this amount of compensation; they would all agree to accept the compensation and forgive the other party.

Even if their deity He Chen were here and understood what a hundred billion yen was, the possibility of him forgiving the Inagi-kai would be extremely high.

If He Chen hadn't had that brain fart earlier, coming up with a multi-step scheme to swindle more money, and if the little believer Anzu Matsuori had truly trusted her god more than money, this act of cutting off her own flesh might have actually been enough to get through it.

"...No! What are the Inagi-kai? They're plotting against our God!"

"My Lord God, which is stronger, the Inagi-kai or the God of War?"

"Of course, it's the God!"

The system's followers responded to this question without the slightest hesitation.

In a capitalist society, money can indeed have divine power, but compared to the true deities, who can truly contend with it?

As a believer who had been punished, tortured, and tormented by his own god in various ways, he firmly believed in the god's invincibility!

"That's it then! Take it, take it without hesitation! If they really dare not to give it up, then we'll pray to the gods and ask them to punish the Inagi-kai! The Inagi-kai may be powerful, but in the eyes of the gods, what do they have compared to the Saijo-kai?!"

Anzu Matsuori slammed her hand hard on the believer's shoulder!

"Hi!"

The system believers, who were originally timid, ran out of the church with radiant faces after hearing what Anzu Matsuori said.

Yes, behind him is his own omnipotent, ahem, all-powerful god. What is a mere second-largest yakuza organization in Japan compared to that?!

The system followers, now energized, were in high spirits and vowed to convey His Holiness the Pope's message completely and comprehensively to the Inagi-kai!

------------

Inayoshi-kai.

It was the same conference room.

All the senior officials were present again.

Along with them arrived, their faces were filled with worry, and the thick smoke that even the fresh air system couldn't clear.

The meeting had been going on for several minutes, according to the timeline.

But at this moment, no one, including the leader of the Inagi-kai, spoke.

Everyone was engrossed in the news that had just arrived.

The atmosphere in the meeting room was as if it had been solidified by concrete—oppressive, heavy, and suffocating.

In the blink of an eye, another ten minutes have passed.

After a long sigh, the dazed leader of the Inagi-kai slowly began to speak:

"...Phew~ Tell me, how should we deal with the church?"

"..."

None of the officials present dared to speak.

The heavy, silent atmosphere, coupled with everyone's extra-formal black suits, generally wouldn't have had the same effect even if a boss died.

Now, because of something that came from the church of the "God of the Washroom," all the senior officials are completely silent.

The already stressed and anxious leader of the Inagi-kai, seeing his subordinates' incompetence, suddenly flew into a rage. Ignoring his advanced age and the fatigue of the past few days, he roared:

"No one's saying anything? Or do you not remember what they said?! Should we play it again?"

......

The boss's anger eventually had an effect.

The lower-level cadres finally spoke up:

"The apology list sent last time already amounted to three or four hundred billion yen. Any higher... it's hard to find anything significantly higher that's suitable to send out, right?"

"We only have one chance to provide the list again, but... how much is enough? They said if we don't meet the standard next time, they'll use force against our organization!"

"There's no reference! The key point is that there's no reference! We don't even know what values ​​the church is basing its dissatisfaction on!"

......

He Chen didn't think much when he designed the plan, and neither did Xingnan Songzhi when she said those words.

However, these Inayoshi-kai executives dared not think less at all.

As a result, Anzu Matsuori's attempt to emphasize her point by referencing lines from various movies stumped the executives present.

Not sincere enough!

Is it a lack of assets, a lack of funds, or a lack of effective methods?

The market value of an apology definitely needs to be increased, but how much should it be increased? At the same time, do other aspects need to be improved?

For example, is it that the things the gods need are not provided?

Is it that the type and manner of the gifts are not what the church needs?

And so on, and so forth.

With no reference points and only one chance to confirm the gift list, resolving the issue of making amends is incredibly difficult!

......

After a meeting that lasted a full half hour without any results, someone suddenly opened the meeting room door and handed something to the leader of the Inagi-kai.

Upon seeing this, the leader of the Inagi-kai's expression, which had been filled with bitterness, instantly brightened!

"Bang bang!"

He slammed his fist on the table twice and said joyfully:

"Everyone should first gather all the assets that can be collected in Tokyo, especially things related to the gods, such as jade, antiques, spices, and so on."

"Furthermore, the priestess of the [God of Dreams] has agreed to meet with me! I will now bathe and change my clothes and try to visit the [God of Dreams] to see if I can find a solution or some valuable advice there!"

"Everyone, get moving! Don't slack off! You all know what happened to the West City Society. If the Church retaliates, none of you here will escape!"

Yes, the message that came through the hurriedly opened door was a text message from the priestess of the "God of Dreams," expressing her willingness to meet him!

Hey, don't ask why it's a text message.

All Hamasaki Bemi got from the Inagi-kai boss was a phone number; besides making calls, she could only send text messages.

Although it may sound somewhat informal and unserious, and even a bit sudden and urgent, a meeting notified by a text message seems to be a little too casual and unserious.

However, for the leader of the Inagi-kai, who is currently facing a life-or-death crisis, being able to meet the shrine maiden of the "God of Dreams" is already the best news imaginable, and he doesn't care about formalities at all.

------------

"Phew~ Okay, the Inagi-kai has agreed. We'll be able to find out their reaction later."

He Chen, who had been looking tense, let out a long sigh of relief and lay down on the air in front of Anzu Matsuori without any regard for his image, looking as if a great weight had been lifted from his shoulders.

"Little believer, little believer, your appetite is far too big, too cruel!"

"Good heavens, over 360 billion yen! You actually refused such a large sum of money, complaining it wasn't enough? If this were China, you'd probably be able to send the groom's parents away with just the dowry!"

Yes, the reason why the "Goddess of Dreams" suddenly agreed to meet with the leader of the Inagi-kai was because He Chen urgently ordered the arrangement.
