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

"Huh?" Takanashi was taken aback and muttered, "Three hours of tutoring?"

"Your math is really bad."

Takanashi was stunned; this really is a loving mother...

A few minutes later, in front of the room on the second floor, she turned around and said, "Wait for me a moment, I'm going to change my clothes..."

"You can change after I leave. Focus on your studies." Kotekawa Kami shook his head.

“It’s weird to wear a school uniform at home! It’s not like it’s a very comfortable outfit… Besides, my room is a bit messy, I need to tidy it up.” She insisted on changing.

"Alright then, hurry up, don't make me wait half an hour."

"Know it!"

About 28 minutes later, the door opened.

Wearing a long dress, Takanashi's eyes darted around a little. Seeing Kotegawa's dark face, she couldn't help but say guiltily, "The room hasn't been cleaned for days, it's a mess, really..."

Kotegawa had just heard the vacuum cleaner outside the door. He sat down in the chair, looked at the young woman standing in front of him, and after a while, he rummaged through his bag, took out a test paper from a few months ago, and pointed at it, saying, "Do this."

The little bird flew over, picked up the test paper, looked at it, and said with some surprise, "Isn't this the test paper from the first week of school? I've done it all before."

“That’s right, I’ve not only done it, but I’ve also talked about it; so in theory, getting a perfect score shouldn’t be a problem, right?” Kotegawa pointed to the side: “Let’s see if I can get a perfect score.”

Takanashi suddenly felt uneasy: "Don't say that, or I'll feel a lot of pressure."

Kotegawa pointed to the side.

She could only sit down, find a blank sheet of paper to use as an answer sheet, and begin to answer the questions.

Kotekawa Kami sat beside him watching for a while, then got up and lay down on the beanbag chair next to him, basking in the sun outside the window while looking at the bounty missions posted on the Special Science website and replying to some messages.

The weather has been pretty good during the day recently, and there have been many bounty missions posted on the Special Department, although most of them are at the [Difficulty Level 2] level, but the rewards are a bit higher than usual.

The two of them wrote and waited, and gradually, the sunlight outside the window was tinged with the twilight that only comes with dusk. Takanashi finally finished the test, breathed a sigh of relief, looked up, and turned to look for Kotegawa. But when she saw him, she was immediately furious.

The boy was lying on her sofa, fast asleep.

Her eyes darted around, she stood up, a malicious smile on her face, held her breath, tiptoed closer to him, a watercolor pen in her hand.

She went around behind the sofa, ready to doodle.

But Kotegawa suddenly spoke up: "Are you finished writing?"

She was startled and quickly put her hand down, shoving the watercolor pen into the sofa.

Kotegawa opened his eyes, glanced at the time on the wall, and pondered for a moment, "It's a bit slow. This is something we learned in the first week."

"It's alright, mainly because it's written in quite a lot of detail," she said uncertainly.

“No, this only shows that your grasp of knowledge is still somewhat weak.” Kotekawa Kami saw through her and said earnestly, “You have to memorize the concept and formula of each term first. Only by memorizing them can you gradually deepen your understanding until you can use them effortlessly.”

"I tried my best..."

“No, this isn’t about whether you try your best or not; it’s something you have to do.” He emphasized, then said, “There aren’t many things to learn in the first week. Start memorizing them now, and then review them again when you get up tomorrow morning. By tomorrow afternoon, you should be almost done… I’ll check on you then.”

"Oh..." Takanashi responded, looking quite exasperated.

Why are you taking it so seriously?

Kotegawa got up, walked to the desk and sat down. He picked up the answer sheet she had written, glanced at it, and then picked up the pen with a slight sigh. He drew a circle on the paper and pointed at it, saying, "A little careless."

The little bird's cheeks flushed as it danced among the flowers.

Kotegawa continued reading, and after a moment, nodded slightly and said, "It's alright, just a careless mistake in calculating one question."

"Oh, oh? So you were almost a perfect score?" Takanashi exclaimed in surprise.

Kotegawa nodded without saying anything; he wanted to gradually build her confidence.

Just then, he heard the sound of a door opening and Ms. Chiko's voice downstairs. He twitched his ears, packed his bag, and said, "That's all for today. I should go to the coffee shop too."

The joy on Xiao Niao You Hua Wu's face diminished slightly. She put her hands behind her back, nodded gently, and said, "Perfect timing, it's time for me to get back to work."

Kotegawa went downstairs, greeted Senko-sensei who had just returned, and left with his bag and sword pouch on his back.

Takanashi watched him walk home, locked the door, bowed to the shrine at the entrance, and then turned and went back inside.

A few minutes later, Kotegawa, who had gone home to change his clothes, hurriedly drove out, but returned quickly, carrying a pile of boxes.

This is the takeout meal he ordered at the restaurant this afternoon.

There's Wagyu beef, sakura shrimp, and a kaiseki set meal...

After finishing all that, he went to a coffee shop, sat there for a while, and waited until Mikazuki and Yuka got off work. He first took Yuka home, then bought some strawberry daifuku at the shop, and also chatted with Glasses-kun, whom he hadn't seen more than a few times in a week.

After the two returned home and locked the door, Kotegawa took her hand and led her into the dining room, showing her a table full of dishes and saying with a smile, "We're having takeout today! We're not cooking."

Actually, Mikazuki Haruka was also exhausted today, after all, it was the weekend... She gave a soft "hmm".

Kotegawa turned off the living room lights, leaving only the kitchen light on.

It's not that I wanted to save electricity, it's just to create a better atmosphere.

"Want something to drink?" He shook a bottle.

Mikazuki Haruka glanced at him and said, "Hawthorn juice? I want a bottle!"

"Got it!"

The dinner was plentiful and delicious, and the two of them ate their fill. It was only just after nightfall.

Kotegawa wrapped the unfinished food in plastic wrap and put it in the insulated box. Then he and Mikazuki washed the dishes together, whispering something they wouldn't tell anyone else.

After finishing her chores, Mikazuki went back to her room to change, and Kotegawa also went back to his room. During her change, they gradually became more intimate.

The headboard swayed slightly, the girl's cherry lips parted slightly, her eyes were hazy, and she wrapped her arms around her beloved's neck, enduring one gentle thrust after another.

As night deepened and the moon rose above the willow branches, the two nestled together, scrolling through the news on their phones.

Kotegawa holds happiness in his hands, his eyes are gentle, and his face has gained a touch of masculinity and composure. His temperament has become more and more refined.

The girl nestled in his arms was saying, "...I heard from Youjia that Huawu used to occasionally go live to sing and interact with fans, but ever since her identity was exposed, she has shut down her live streams and comments section, only posting cover songs, and her popularity has dropped a lot... Although she keeps saying that being exposed is nothing, the impact is really huge."

Kotegawa was taken aback, then his eyes suddenly lit up.

When Mikazuki saw that he did not answer, he raised his head.

“The situation at Takanashi is only temporary,” Kotegawa pondered. “However, it’s also possible that someone is deliberately causing trouble.”

There was once a talent agency that tried to ruin Takanashi's reputation and then pretend to be a beacon of light in despair, extending an olive branch to Takanashi in order to get her to work for them at extremely low wages.

Although that firm has already dissolved and the boss is living a life of regret in the hospital every day, there's no guarantee that a second or third firm won't try to cause trouble like this.

Birds swimming around are a hot commodity for them; whoever gets to eat them will make a fortune.

Humans are inherently greedy.

This time, however, a big tiger is standing behind the lucrative opportunity, waiting for anyone who dares to extend their claws from the shadows.

Just then, his phone, which was on the bedside table, suddenly started buzzing.

Kotegawa glanced at it, reached out and took it, then looked at the caller ID... It was Ishikawa Yasuhiro calling.

It's likely that there's news from the side investigating Akamaru.

Mikazuki Haruka turned off her phone, placed it beside her, and quietly nestled in his arms.

His eyes lit up, and he answered the phone immediately, holding it to his ear and saying, "It's me."

"Furutegawa, something terrible has happened!" Ishikawa Yasuhiro's voice was grave: "Half an hour ago, all the people who went to investigate Akamaru have lost contact."

Kotegawa paused for a moment and said, "We can't jump to conclusions too soon. Perhaps the signal is just temporarily bad?"

“No, they returned to their hotel before dark…” Ishikawa Yasuhiro said with a heavy heart, “and communication has been normal ever since.”

How many people went on this trip?

"There are many. If you include the special divisions from Tottori Prefecture, there are probably about fifteen squads!"

"Can't contact a single one?"

“Yes…” Ishikawa Yasuhiro said in a heavy tone, “We can’t contact any of them.”

"Then you should call the local special operations department and ask them to provide support, or at least see what the situation is. We're in Tokyo, so we can't do anything about it."

“That’s the real problem…” Ishikawa Yasuhiro sighed, looking worried. “After they lost contact, we immediately contacted the Special Division of the Tottori City headquarters. They sent people to investigate, but found that the hotel that was supposed to be booked was empty.”

"They've all disappeared too?" Kotegawa was taken aback, then asked, "Did they find Akamaru?"

"We've only found a few scattered clues so far. Akamaru is very well hidden and won't stay in one place for long, so finding him will be quite difficult."

"So they assigned this job to you again?"

“Yes! Besides finding Akamaru, we also need to find the missing team members…” Ishikawa Yasuhiro said with a wry smile, “But to be honest, I’m not very confident this time.”

"What do you mean?"

Yasuhiro Ishikawa lowered his voice: "The team that went to Tottori Prefecture this time had a messenger of the gods... but even he has disappeared this time!"

"The messengers of the gods are all lost?" Kotegawa was a little surprised, and pondered for a moment before saying, "You canceled the mission?"

"How can I refuse? What excuse do I have?" Ishikawa Yasuhiro sighed deeply. "Now I know what it means to be caught in the web of power and have no choice in what you do."

"You're really late to the party." Kotegawa looked at Mikazuki, who was holding him nervously, and said into the phone, "If your superiors want you to go over tonight, I suggest you go and send your boss to his grave first, or you can go first and I'll go over tomorrow."

"It's not safe to travel at night. I'm also leaving tomorrow, at eight o'clock tomorrow morning."

"okay, I get it."

After hanging up the phone, Mikazuki pounced on him, oblivious to the exposed skin, her eyes wide open: "Are you going?"

Kotegawa pulled her into his arms, pulled the blanket up a bit, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm more capable than anyone imagines. For me, it's just a trip to broaden my horizons."

How good are you?

"Well, let's put it this way, aside from not being able to fly yet..." Kotegawa paused, then smiled and said, "Is it a little hot?"

It's July, after all, and the two of them are still covered with blankets; it would be strange if they weren't hot.

Mikazuki Seisakusho frowned: "We're getting down to business!"

"Don't worry..." Kotegawa quickly reassured her. He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt a little startled when his girlfriend got angry...

He spread his palms, circulated his inner energy, and the room immediately felt cool, with the temperature dropping rapidly.

Mikazuki suddenly shivered and looked out the window and at the air conditioner with surprise and doubt.
