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

So I'm already content; what more could I ask for? They're not his subordinates!

Ishikawa Yasuhiro looked at him and tentatively said, "However, it might be a little bit serious..."

Kotekawa Kami's heart sank: "It can't be that my house is gone, can it?"

It's just killing three little devils!

"It's not that bad! It's just that the wall and door are broken, but don't worry, we'll take care of fixing them!"

"It's nothing, don't talk so dramatically!"

"Hmm, you really don't mind, do you?"

Am I such a petty person?

“Of course not!” Ishikawa Yasuhiro saved the audio recording of his “I don’t mind”.

The two got into the car, started the engine, and drove away.

Kami Kotekawa leaned back in the passenger seat and asked, "What kind of place is Tentoji?"

Ishikawa Yasuhiro, who was driving, unconsciously became more serious: "It's said to be a very eerie place, and anyone who has been involved with it will not have a good ending, but I can't say for sure right now. I need to go back and check the relevant documents... By the way, did Oni-hime and that so-called great mage escape injured?"

"No, they're all dead."

Yasuhiro Ishikawa paused for a moment, then instinctively said, "Kuniichi, Kotegawa... I'll definitely fix your house within three days!"

"Don't worry about the house." Kotekawa Kami thought to himself that he really wasn't such a petty person, and then said, "I really have to thank you properly this time. I'll treat you to a meal later... By the way, are the people from Tendoji Temple on your bounty list?"

"...I'll check the information when I get back."

"Oh, it seems that must be a very remote place."

More than ten minutes later, the car arrived in Bunkyo Ward.

The Special Division personnel received notification halfway back that they had been evacuated.

When Furutekawa Kami got out of the car, he looked at his house, which was missing an entire entrance wall and a courtyard wall. No matter how he looked at it, he felt that the house was only a few beams and pillars away from being completely demolished.

He turned his head and silently looked at Ishikawa Yasuhiro.

You call this "a little" damaged?

Despite having repeatedly assured Kotekawa Kamimi that he wouldn't be angry, Ishikawa Yasuhiro still broke out in a cold sweat when the moment came. With a tingling scalp, he forced a dry laugh and said, "Don't worry, I'll definitely fix it for you!"

Kotegawa Kami remained silent for a while before saying, "Forget it, let's just find a construction company to demolish and rebuild it."

The house was actually quite old, so this was a good opportunity.

“I’ll take care of these!” Ishikawa Yasuhiro quickly said.

After thanking him and watching him get into the car and leave, Kamiko Kote stepped into the house, which no longer had doors or walls.

This makes things much clearer.

He looked down and around, seeing charred marks and bullet holes everywhere, indicating that the previous battle had been quite intense, which made him feel a little better.

Given Ishikawa Yasuhiro's strength, which forces him to maintain a high level of caution, it's already quite remarkable that he would personally come to help him oversee things.

He stopped thinking about it, went into the bathroom, threw away the tattered clothes he was wearing, removed his protective armor piece by piece, took a quick shower, wrapped himself in a towel, and went into the bedroom. After drying himself off and changing into his pajamas, he lay down on the bed in the living room and fell fast asleep.

Even though the walls and doors are gone.

But with him around, if any thief or ghost dares to come knocking, he'll definitely teach them how to be a human again.

The air was very cold late at night, especially in the room with one wall missing; the temperature was almost the same as outside.

But Kami Kotegawa slept soundly, more soundly than ever before.

Nothing happened that night. At 7:30 the next morning, a scream woke up Kami Kotegawa from his sleep.

He rubbed his eyes and looked towards the door.

Shirakawa Kurumi stood alone outside the door, staring in disbelief at everything around her.

"Hey, good morning!" He sat up and greeted her.

Shirakawa Kurumi snapped out of her daze, looked at the entryway, and hesitated, unsure whether she should change her shoes.

"Just come in. The house is going to be torn down and rebuilt anyway."

Shirakawa Kurumi said "Oh," stepped inside, looked him up and down, and couldn't help but ask, "Are those three monks that strong? What's their background?"

Kamiko Kotegawa shook her head: "If I'm home, they won't dare to come."

"Huh? I thought you rushed back last night..." Shirakawa Kurumi paused, then asked strangely, "So you fought with other people somewhere else?"

The backpack and sword pouch were left in the corner, covered in dust and mud that were quite noticeable.

"Yes, we ran into two pretty tough guys." Kotekawa Kami nodded slightly and asked, "What about Mikazuki?"

"She didn't sleep a wink last night because she was worried. She had just fallen asleep when I came out." Shirakawa Kurumi sat down on the sofa and asked seriously, "Who exactly are those monks? Why are they causing you trouble?"

"Don't worry, it was all taken care of last night."

"Is it really resolved?" Shirakawa Kurumi was skeptical. "The other party should be a temple, right? Only three people came last night! There can't be only three people in a temple, can there? And last night I heard them say that they were acting on someone's orders, something like Master Mokichi?"

"Mokichi is dead." Kotegawa Shinmi said calmly, "What happened last night is what happened last night. If they can't get over this, then I'll have to go to their temple and have a good talk with them."

Shirakawa Kurumi was taken aback by these words: "You killed someone?"

“No, he’s not human.” He shook his head. “Maybe that temple wasn’t even built by humans.”

"Not human?" The little girl exclaimed in horror. "Could it be that eerie place, Tiandu Temple? It can't be, right?"

This question immediately stumped Kamiko Kotegawa. He looked at her horrified expression with surprise and tentatively asked, "What kind of place is Tentoji?"

"Tendo-ji Temple, it's said to be the most sinister temple, a place where a demon has transformed. No one knows its origins, no one knows its past. It's said that the temple moves every day, and throughout history, no human who has ever been associated with it has had a good ending." Shirakawa Kurumi's face was full of solemnity.

“One of our ancestors was a deity who once followed the Great Yin-Yang Master to attack Tiandu Temple, but he never returned after entering it… There are many records about it. Some say that Tiandu Temple holds earth-shattering secrets that can make mortals into gods, while others say that the place is the source of all misfortune and bad luck, and that the monks inside are all the manifestations of the human souls that Tiandu Temple itself has devoured. Even more outrageous, some say that only humans who dare to eat ghosts can enter it.”

Kotekawa Kami listened in a daze. Putting aside the first few points, the last one did seem somewhat believable.

Mokichi dares to eat demons, and he has an extremely strong palate; he can stomach any flavor, no matter how pungent it is.

He pondered for a moment.

It's quite believable that Tentoji himself is a yokai.

As for mortals becoming gods, it seems that I haven't heard of it much. It's very likely that it was fabricated. It's very possible that it was deliberately spread by Tiandu Temple in order to attract people to its "belly".

"So, those monks must not be from Tentoji Temple, right?" Shirakawa Kurumi was unusually nervous.

Kotekawa Kami pondered for a moment, then chuckled, "You're overthinking it. How could I possibly provoke such a monster?"

"That's good! That's good!" Shirakawa Kurumi breathed a sigh of relief and patted her small chest.

She grew up listening to terrifying stories about Tendo-ji Temple, and she has a natural fear of that temple that is said to be a place where monsters have transformed. Therefore, she doesn't want anyone around her to get involved with such a place. The terror of Tendo-ji Temple is something that no human can resist.

"Don't overthink it," Kotekawa Kami comforted her. He threw back the covers and got out of bed. "Go to school. I'm taking the day off to move."

"It's okay, I'll take leave too!" Shirakawa Kurumi said nonchalantly, "I'll help you."

"Come on, last time you even had a junior priest help you move."

“We can ask him again this time!” Shirakawa Kurumi gave him a strange look, then took out her phone and called her younger brother: “There’s a moving job available… How much is the pay? Hmm, how about 50,000?”

She hung up the phone and said, "Okay, he said he'll be there in fifteen minutes."

"..."

Chapter Thirty-Three: Patient Exchange Scene

The Kotegawa family's relocation project has begun.

The participants included: Kami Kotegawa, the Shirakawa siblings, Mikazuki who rushed back after waking up, and the Motoba siblings and Takanashi Hanamai, who were also on leave.

When they learned that something had happened to the Kotegawa family's house, they all took time off work to come and help.

Kotekawa Kami was quite touched, but to be honest, he had quite a few things in his house that he didn't want anyone to see, so he didn't bother to find a moving company or even ask for help.

At most, we'll add Mikazuki and Kurumi, let them move into their own rooms, and keep an eye on things at the new house so that while things are bustling around here, the other side doesn't get abandoned.

However, since everyone was already there, he wouldn't say anything to spoil the mood, but he repeatedly emphasized that he had to go into his own room and move in himself.

The girls' gazes immediately became subtle.

Even Mikazuki had been in and out of Kotegawa Kami's house countless times. Although she hadn't deliberately looked for it, she hadn't noticed anything amiss.

Yuka was even more excited. She had been quite disappointed when she couldn't find any H books in Kotekawa Kami's old house bedroom. Now that she heard that Kotekawa had a secret, how could she suppress her excitement?

Kami could tell what everyone was thinking just by looking at their expressions, especially the bespectacled guy who kept winking at him.

"There's nothing like what you're thinking!" he explained repeatedly, but to no avail. He had no choice but to give up and decide to keep the secret in his bedroom to himself.

Before starting the move, he divided the tasks:

Yuka and Kotori went to the newly purchased apartment next door to arrange the appliances and furniture.

The young priest and he went inside to carry large items like wardrobes and beds, which were difficult to lift.

Mikazuki and Kurumi first went to tidy up their respective rooms, packing up their personal clothes and valuables to take with them.

As for Glasses Guy, he's responsible for blowing his whistle at intersections to keep an eye on cars and prevent anyone from accidentally getting into an accident.

Once everyone understood their roles, the moving project finally began in earnest.

Kotekawa Kami and Shirakawa Nozomi started by moving the furniture and appliances from the first-floor living room: sofa, refrigerator, TV, coffee table, and dining table.

Seeing that Kotekawa had easily hoisted the marble coffee table onto his shoulder with one hand, he thought for a moment and then used his other free hand to lift the empty refrigerator. He walked away steadily and nimbly, leaving everyone watching with their jaws practically dropping to the ground.

"Has Kotegawa's strength increased again?" Honba Sorata murmured.

Yujia, who was passing by, rolled her eyes at him: "Be more confident, drop the 'is it' part, you little bean sprout!"

Honba Sorata retorted, "Compared to Kotegawa, we're all just bean sprouts! Especially you, you're a flat bean sprout!"

"Hmm?" Yuka, Takanashi Hanamai, and Shirakawa Kurumi in the room all turned their heads, their eyes filled with very kind eyes.

"I was only talking about Youjia, not you guys!" Glasses Guy was startled and quickly ran to the side of the road, looking around furtively.

The little priest in the room walked to another refrigerator, looked at it for a while, then reached out a hand and tried to lift it—but the refrigerator didn't budge.
