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

"No, um... I can't quite put my finger on it, but it just feels a little different..." She looked at Kotegawa: "Do you feel the same way?"

Kotegawa Kami silently looked at Mikazuki, shook his head and said, "I don't see anything wrong with it."

"Could it be my imagination?" Kotori Hanako was bewildered.

"Anyway, let's go to school first? Today is the school festival, and there are still many things to prepare."

On the way, Mikazuki took out his phone, typed a message, and sent it to Kotegawa.

"What Hua Wu said, you really didn't feel anything?"

Kotekawa Kami hesitated for a moment, then replied, "The range of hip movement... is just normal."

Mikazuki Seisakusou was stunned, and his cheeks suddenly felt hot.

She had no idea that things would change like this...

"You...you actually noticed that?"

"After all, I practice martial arts, so I naturally have some understanding of these things."

"Back in school..."

"Yeah, I can tell. I can tell who has a boyfriend and who doesn't..." Kotekawa Kami replied quickly, "But I don't usually observe them intentionally. I just glance at them occasionally and I know what they are."

"...That sounds a little hentai."

"No, no, no, that's not hentai! It's just a minor skill that comes with a professional field. Like Takanashi Hana Mai, she's a master of music and can probably tell whether someone has had vocal training just by listening to them talk on the street... It's the same principle!"

Mikazuki's clear sky is speechless.

Just as she was about to put her phone away, a pop-up window suddenly appeared on the screen.

"What are you two... whispering about that I shouldn't know?"

She looked up and saw Kotori Hana-mai holding a phone, watching her and Kotegawa with a huff.

She guiltily avoided his gaze: "I...I just wanted to ask him if I really looked different in any way?"

"Oh?" Birdsong Hana-wu perked up; she wanted to know too.

After pondering for a moment, Kotegawa Kami said to her, "As you know, I've been teaching Mikazuki kung fu recently."

Takanashi nodded. Sometimes she could see it too, and if she wasn't too lazy to get up in the morning, she probably would have gone down to practice as well.

"When practicing martial arts, you always have to do some stretching exercises, just like dancers do, you know?"

The little bird danced and nodded. She had practiced dance for a while when she was a child and knew terms like leg stretching and shoulder opening.

“That’s right. I’ve been helping Mikazuki stretch her legs and open her hips recently, so the way she walks might be a little different than before.”

"Oh, I see!" she exclaimed in sudden realization.

Mikazuki Seisakusho pursed her lips, her cheeks so hot she could hardly breathe.

That brat, he really dares to say that...

Chapter 86 The Campus Festival is Here

When the three arrived at the school, they saw the student council members hanging a new red banner on the main gate with three large characters written on it: "Deer Cry Festival".

"The Deer's Cry? Is that this year's theme? What does that mean?"

Hearing Takanashi's question, Mikazuki thought for a moment, then shook her head; she wasn't quite sure either.

However, Kamiko Kotekawa pondered and said, "I remembered a line of poetry: 'The deer cry out, eating the wild apples...' It's from the Book of Songs, and it seems that the school's name is taken from this line."

"Oh, so this 'Deer's Cry' is probably something like that? Using literary all that, the school really knows how to have fun."

They went in through the side door.

Today is an open day, with the gates open all day. Nearby residents, elementary, middle, high school, and university students, tourists passing by, and all sorts of people from the community will likely come and take a look and join in the fun.

Throughout the campus, people were busy at work.

The main road and the playground are designated as the main stall areas where vendors can set up stalls to sell snacks, toys, and various handicrafts; however, the weather was not cooperating, so the umbrella awnings had to be reinforced for stronger protection.

It's not that you can't set up a stall in other places, but you need to apply in advance and you can't go too far from the main road.

On their way to the teaching building, the sights on both sides of the main road were so numerous that they were almost overwhelmed.

Takoyaki, xiaolongbao, fried noodles, and fried chicken nuggets... there were even stalls set up, already grilling meat skewers—thick skewers of meat that looked like they were losing money, sizzling with oil, and a layer of sauce was brushed on them, the aroma instantly wafting far and wide.

Kotekawa Kamimi stood in front of the yakiniku (grilled meat skewers) stall, and after a moment's thought, took out his wallet.

"Boss, please pack all of these up."

The second-year student who was grilling the meat looked at him somewhat bewilderedly: "Sorry, we're not actually open for business yet, this is just a tasting..."

"Okay, then we'll leave this one for you. Please pack up the rest."

"...Thank you for your patronage."

And so, the first deal of the school festival was made.

Takanashi Hanami whispered to Mikazuki, "He didn't eat much for breakfast?"

Mikazuki Seisakusho raised his hands and gestured the shape of a large pot: "I made about this much spicy beef noodles today, and I only ate one bowl."

"It seems the pot we prepared at home was too small!"

A few minutes later, Kami Kotekawa returned carrying a bag. He looked around and said, "Let's find a place to eat first, then we'll go back to class."

The two girls looked at the beef skewers in his hand and instinctively shook their heads.

"I ate a big breakfast!"

"Me too!"

Kotegawa was taken aback for a moment: "It's okay, we'll come back to buy some when we get hungry at noon. You guys go back to class first, I'll come over after I finish eating."

The two girls glanced at him helplessly and walked away first.

That's good, so I won't be tempted to eat if I stay any longer... This is a painful test for my weight.

"Senkaku, have you gained weight recently?" Takanashi asked softly.

“I’ve gained a little weight… just a little! About 300 grams. I exercise a lot…” Mikazuki Haruka said in a series of sentences.

Takanashi didn't laugh at her; instead, she said with a sad expression, "Sigh, actually I've gained weight too... I definitely have to resist the food attacks from Kotegawa from now on! I don't want to become a big fat person!"

"Yes, me too!"

"Ah! Right! Speaking of which, the snacks sold at the school festival are much cheaper and more affordable than outside... He's not going to skip class, is he?"

It was just a casual remark from Takanashi, but after he said it, both of them stopped and turned to look.

Kotegawa was standing by the roadside, eating a meat skewer with gusto.

"Takoyaki! Freshly made takoyaki! Fifteen for only 100 yen! Super affordable!"

"Probably not? No matter how much he can eat—" Mikazuki didn't finish her sentence because she saw Kotegawa quickly heading towards the takoyaki stall, following the sound.

They exchanged a glance, then turned and hurriedly ran over.

This guy really isn't planning on going back to class!

……

A dozen minutes later, Mr. Fujiwara walked slowly into the classroom with his hands behind his back. As soon as he entered, he smelled a strong aroma of grilled meat and takoyaki.

The teacher adjusted his glasses and walked to the podium with a blank expression.

The classroom fell silent instantly.

He scanned the area back and forth, his gaze finally settling on the second row in front of him.

He glanced at them for a moment, then slowly said, "Be careful today. If anything happens, go to the office immediately. Students participating in club activities can go to their clubs to prepare now."

After a drawn-out response.

Kotegawa Kami got up, and went out with Takanashi Hana to the next class.

The teacher of Class 1 did not come to the classroom, but the students had already moved the tables and started preparing for the opening of the music restaurant.

Kotegawa searched, but only found Yuka and Mikazuki Seisaku.

The two girls were looking each other up and down at their work uniforms.

It looks like the uniform of a ramen shop or sushi shop: a red short-sleeved top, black lantern pants that just reveal the ankles, and a small apron printed with "full of energy" and a lucky cat.

She seemed to be wearing a very ordinary work uniform, but because the black patterned hair tie she was wearing was so cute, draped diagonally over her head, she looked like an elf experiencing life on earth.

Many subtle gazes lingered around the two of them.

He and the little bird danced and walked over, circled around the two of them, and nodded: "So beautiful."

Both girls immediately smiled.

"Our class monitor's family runs a buckwheat noodle shop, and she sponsored the clothes!" Youjia happily twirled around, but unfortunately, she wasn't very good at balancing and almost bumped into someone.

"That's great. Our class is planning to open a butler's coffee shop, but all we have are school uniforms."

"Yeah, but your club also prepared clothes, right?"

“Yes, please look forward to it.” Kotegawa Kami chimed in, then asked Yuka, “Where’s Glasses-kun?”

"He didn't come. He either went straight to the club or went to see his senior, Ogasawara."

Kotegawa said "Oh," checked the time, and said to the two of them, "Then let's go to the club first, see you this afternoon."

"Keep up the good work! I bet a huge number of people will be coming for you today!" Yujia said with a smile and a wave.

"Go for it!" Mikazuki's large eyes were fixed on Kotegawa, nothing else.

Kotegawa wanted to hug her, but with so many people watching, and the girl being shy, it wouldn't be appropriate... so he decided to save it for later and hug her as much as he wanted when they got home.

The two left the classroom, exited the teaching building, and headed towards the exorcism club at the back.

On the way, Kotori Hanamai suddenly said, "By the way, is the Exorcism Society open today? If not, we might need to put up a sign to let you know."

"It's all ready." Kotekawa pointed to the wood being hammered by the Kurumi siblings.

"Aren't you afraid of getting a lecture from Fujiwara-sensei? Today is the school festival, you know."
