Becoming a god in a low-key way in the supernatural world

"We need to use the restroom," explained Kami Kotegawa, a guest.

Nanrisa was taken aback, looking him and Shirakawa Kurumi up and down, her expression instantly becoming quite strange, a subtle light flickering in her eyes.

"Are you... a couple?" she asked tentatively.

Kami, who was suffering from an upset stomach, glanced at her in surprise, wondering what was wrong with this woman? Why was she asking so many questions right after they met? He shook his head, not wanting to say anything more, and walked off to find the restroom.

Shirakawa Kurumi didn't say anything, but followed along with a smile, her hands behind her back.

"What! What's with the arrogance?" Ignored, Nanrisa stared at the two backs, her face somewhat unpleasant.

Chapter 139 Some People Just Gone As They Walk (Part 2) (6/19)

At the sink in the restroom, a refreshed Kami Kotekawa washed his hands thoroughly, shook them off haphazardly, and strode out.

However, after taking only two steps, his vision seemed to blur for a moment before returning to normal.

He stopped and frowned slightly.

The light in the corridor seemed to dim, and my head felt inexplicably heavy.

"Hello!" A hesitant voice came from the side into his ears.

Kami Kotekawa instinctively turned his head to look, and his gaze immediately froze.

A flat-chested female monster with veins all over her face and only one big eye was awkwardly gesturing with her hands, staring at him with a mixture of shyness and greed in her eyes.

The stench emanating from him was quite pungent.

Shirakawa Kurumi and Minami Risa, whom they had just met in the hallway, lay sprawled at its feet, unconscious.

[At least on par with a nomadic samurai...]

Kotekawa Kami remained silent, weighing in his mind whether he could kill the enemy first, given that the enemy had hostages.

"Um..." The one-eyed female monster spoke in a low voice, like a shy girl trying to talk to a man for the first time, "I'm not feeling well, could you please take me to the infirmary on the top floor?"

"Huh? Why is she like this?" Kote Kawakami was taken aback, unsure what the yokai was up to. He pondered for a moment, then subtly probed, "What do you mean?"

The female monster clutched her chest, coughed twice, and said with a "weak" expression, "I am Kondo, a third-year student, and I have never been in good health."

"Kondo? The club's vice-president?" Kotekawa Kami was even more surprised and uncertain.

Why is the vice-captain of Holy Light Private Academy a monster who has eaten people? Did they not notice, or what happened?

"Yes!" The female monster raised her hand and handed over a small notebook: "This is my student ID. Please see, I am definitely not a suspicious person."

Hearing the tone that sounded like it was bewitching a child, Kotekawa Kami was even more confused about what the monster was up to. He reached out and took the student ID, pretending not to notice the scarlet light shining in its big eyes, and opened it to take a look.

Inside was a close-up photo of a girl whose hairstyle, clothes, and face shape were exactly the same as the monster's. However, the girl in the photo had normal facial features; she wasn't particularly beautiful, but at least she was a person.

"How is it? Doesn't it look exactly like me?" The female monster flicked a strand of hair behind her ear.

The chill in the air intensified, and the light dimmed considerably. With his head feeling even heavier, Furutekawa Kami began to have some guesses in his mind.

"Does it possess illusion magic? Although I don't know why it doesn't work on me, it probably thinks it has. That seems to somewhat explain why no one in the Holy Light Academy noticed anything amiss... The drop in temperature and the inexplicable heaviness in my head might be due to its power."

Kotekawa Kami returned her student ID and nodded calmly, "So you're an upperclassman. Shall I walk you up?"

"This is troublesome..." The female monster's eyes trembled with excitement. She tied her hands, turned around and walked towards the stairs, stopping as she turned her face to the side to wait for him.

Kotegawa Kami calmly walked behind the monster, and kicked Shirakawa Kurumi as they passed by.

But the little girl lay motionless on the ground as if she had fallen into a deep sleep.

Kotegawa Kami secretly sucked on his teeth.

Has this meant I've been completely infected?

He frowned and took a few steps forward, then stopped. He couldn't just leave her there unattended; if something unexpected happened, or if a monster appeared, he wouldn't be able to handle it...

He took a deep breath, looked at the monster with affection, took off the sword pouch from his back, and said with a deep gaze, "Senior, would you like to do something fun with me?"

"Something fun?" The female monster paused, a strange smile creeping across her lips. "Junior, you're really in a hurry... Well then, let's have some fun!"

As Kotegawa Kami opened his sword sheath and gripped the hilt, a fierce glint flashed in his eyes.

The surrounding scenery suddenly changed drastically. The corridors and restrooms all disappeared, leaving only a blood-stained, dim yellow sky and the sounds of metal clashing and fierce fighting all around.

Caught off guard, the female demon turned her head to look at both sides, her expression filled with shock and anger.

It was no longer "gentle"; its voice turned somber and unpleasant: "What kind of place is this!"

Kotekawa Kami glanced down at Shirakawa Kurumi and Minami Risa, who were unconscious and in pain, then looked at how much territory they had actually expanded. He drew his longsword with a whoosh, ran his right sword finger along the blade, and as a clear light shone, he lunged forward.

We need to act quickly!

Otherwise, given Shirakawa Kurumi's constitution, she wouldn't be able to hold out for long.

Upon seeing this, the female monster's large eyes widened in disbelief: "Why weren't you pulled into the nightmare?!"

"You discovered it too late!" The longsword shot out like lightning, aiming straight for its neck.

The female monster let out a piercing scream, the piercing sound waves seeming to have a tangible presence.

The two people on the ground groaned in pain.

Kotegawa Kami was also shocked so badly that his eardrums hurt, and then he saw a very strange scene.

The female monster's body stretched out in an instant, completely losing its human form.

It resembled a planktonic creature with only one large eyeball, trailing a long, ghostly shadow, seemingly an illusion.

Furutekawa's expression turned completely grave.

What exactly is this monster? It's really something else!

Now I don't know if the longsword imbued with true energy will still be effective, or if [Four Directions Impermanence] can still bind it... But I hope it works!

Without further hesitation, he withdrew his longsword and switched to the spinning sword that Xiaoqian had told him to use. While blocking the monster's attacks, which were as fast as afterimages, he waited for an opportunity to stab its large eye, the only thing on its body that looked like a real object.

This illusory, shadow-like monster, made of some unknown material, switched freely between illusion and reality, accompanied by a sharp, piercing cry.

The moment their swords clashed, sparks flew everywhere.

The two women lying on the ground next to her, Kurumi Shirakawa and Risa Minami, were curled up in pain, their hands unconsciously clutching their throats even while unconscious.

Kotekawa saw a warning bell ringing in his mind. He calmed himself down, blinked rapidly, and then a ruthless glint flashed in his eyes as he feigned an opening while secretly gathering power in his longsword.

The Nightmare Woman, unable to break through after a long siege, was already filled with shock and anger. This place was strange; there was a bizarre power here, like chains, constantly suppressing and binding her.

If it weren't for its special abilities, it might be dead by now!

"That human brat!" it gritted its teeth, making its figure even more ethereal. Its only large eye was now bloodshot, and its speed increased significantly once again.

Kotekawa Kamimi tilted the tip of his sword slightly downwards, his arm was slightly outstretched, and his other hand seemed to have been completely unprotected.

The Nightmare was overjoyed and rushed forward. The moment it got close, it opened its blood-red maw, intending to swallow the plump and strong arm whole!

A crisp "clang!" made its head throb with pain.

Kami Kotegawa also grimaced in pain, though there was no bleeding.

However, the [Rock Skin] talent surprised him quite a bit.

Without this, he might have become a one-armed swordsman.

The Nightmare was somewhat bewildered, unable to understand why it seemed to have bitten a large rock when it was biting a human's arm.

At this moment, the ferocity in Kotegawa's eyes surged to an unprecedented level, his true energy seemed to boil, and his long sword moved with lightning speed, piercing directly through the Nightmare Woman's chin and into its large eyeball.

"Boom!" The true energy attached to the longsword seemed to burst into flames.

Kotekawa Shinji tapped his longsword repeatedly, and seven cold stars burst forth in an instant!

A clear light emanated from the Nightmare Woman's body, and with a desperate, piercing scream, it exploded with a bang.

Like real fireworks, it shattered into pieces.

Several orbs of light instantly appeared on Kotegawa Kami's mind sea.

Without hesitation, he immediately unleashed the [Four Directions of Impermanence].

The surroundings shattered inch by inch, and the three returned to reality.

The corridors inside the teaching building were brightly lit and the temperature was just right.

Kotekawa Kamimi held a long sword, his eyes like those of a hawk, staring at the spot where the female demon had disappeared.

But there was nothing there.

He frowned and focused his mind to "look" at the few orbs of light, only then confirming that what he had just seen was not a dream.

"Where is the body? Is it left in the [Four Directions of Impermanence]? Or has it completely dissipated?" He wondered to himself, but since the female monster was already dead, it didn't matter what.

He opened his eyes, looked down at his arm, and saw two large holes in his casual clothes, revealing bluish skin underneath.

"What great teeth!" He grumbled as he picked up the scabbard, sheathed the longsword, and after re-slung it over his shoulder, he squatted down, first patting Shirakawa Kurumi's cheek, then checking her breathing to make sure it was steady and that she seemed alright, before taking a deep breath and circulating his qi in his dantian.

"Get up!"

The two girls on the ground shuddered at the same time and opened their eyes.

Shirakawa Kurumi was probably grumpy when she woke up; her beautiful eyebrows drooped slightly for a moment, and she was about to lash out when she suddenly felt a splitting headache.

She groaned, clutching her forehead, and said weakly, "It hurts so much."

Kotekawa Kami glanced at Minami Risa, who was also covering her head, then helped Shirakawa Kurumi sit up, squatted down in front of her, and tentatively asked, "How did you fall asleep just now?"

"Asleep?" Shirakawa Kurumi was still a little confused. She looked around and slowly remembered what had just happened. She exclaimed in surprise, "Strange, was I asleep? And right by the toilet door?"

Minami Risa, who sat up beside her, also looked bewildered.

She only remembered that she wanted to use the restroom, but as she walked along... she couldn't seem to remember.

"Asleep..." Her expression suddenly stiffened. She quickly checked herself over, and after confirming that her clothes hadn't been touched, it was hard to tell whether her expression was one of relief or disappointment, but there was a hint of resentment in her eyes.

Shirakawa Kurumi frowned and muttered, "I think I had a nightmare."

"Oh? Do you remember what it was?"

She was silent for a moment, then said in a puzzled tone, "I dreamt that I turned into a trash can, and then someone threw me into the sea, where I almost drowned."

"A trash can?" Kotegawa Kami and Minami Risa were both taken aback. The latter looked at him strangely: "Huh? I dreamt that I turned into a broom and was thrown into the sea..."
