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

...His skill level is too high, which has also made his physical fitness many times stronger. If he wanted to, he could go seven days and seven nights without sleeping.

After a moment of silence, Qingkong said quietly, "Well, there's definitely a reason why I need to find another girlfriend."

Kotegawa didn't dare to say a word. He held the girl in his arms, kissed her forehead, and they intertwined their fingers in bed, peacefully drifting off to sleep together.

The night passed peacefully.

The next day at six o'clock, the young couple, having finished their morning exercises, went downstairs together. One went to the washroom to wash up, while the other went to the courtyard to practice boxing.

Today is the 28th, time to start preparing for the New Year.

Aunt Qiuye also got up early. After making breakfast, she started discussing shopping in the city with Uncle Jian.

Kotegawa wasn't left out either; Aunt Akiba and Seisaku were in charge of buying, while he and Uncle Kenji were in charge of carrying.

After breakfast, he continued to drive, taking his family straight to the city's largest shopping mall.

As the Lunar New Year approaches, companies of all sizes are closing for the holidays and returning to their hometowns. Students who have worked hard at school all year are also taking a break. So even shopping malls in remote small cities are bustling with activity.

Kotegawa's appearance attracted a lot of attention. He was so tall and handsome that it seemed to defy the heavens. His skin was also incredibly good. He really looked like he had stepped out of a manga, radiating light, heroic and divine.

Uncle Jian, standing next to me, kept his hands in his sleeves, his gaze slightly wistful. He seemed to recall how, back in the day, he was the type to attract attention wherever he went.

Aunt Qiuye and Qingkong went to the clothing store on the second floor first and bought new clothes for the whole family.

Because Kotegawa hadn't asked his family for money this year, Aunt Akiba was quite generous this time, buying the whole family high-end brand-name clothes.

After buying the clothes, I went to the supermarket on the first floor to buy beef, pork, lobsters, and crabs.

We have a cellar at home, which contains vegetables and fruits, so we don't need to buy these expensive things.

After Aunt Qiuye learned that Jia might come after the New Year, she thought about it and bought a lot more ingredients than in previous years. Anyway, it didn't matter how much she bought, since her own children were at home, and she wasn't worried about not being able to finish it.

Kotegawa gradually accumulated quite a few bags in his hands.

By noon, after buying most of the items, Aunt Qiuye waved her hand and directed Kotegawa to drive to a family restaurant a little further away.

No cooking today, we're eating out!

Meanwhile, in Bunkyo Ward, Tokyo, Yuka, sporting dark circles under her eyes, yawned as she left home, heading towards Takanashi's house.

She thought about it all night but couldn't come up with any good ideas, so perhaps it would be better to pool her wisdom and ask Takanashi for his opinion first...

Chapter Fifty-Four: The New Year (Part Four)

At Takanashi's house, Takanashi, who had just woken up, sipped clam soup while listening to Yuuki's troubles.

She put down her bowl and picked up some more beef.

After Youjia finally finished speaking, she wiped her mouth and said in a calm tone, "Go if you want to go play, why do you care about me? Even if you could go, I wouldn't have time."

Yujia paused for a moment, then scratched her head: "Is there still a lot of work?"

"Well..." Takanashi shrugged and continued eating breakfast.

Yuuka hesitated for a moment, looked at her, and tentatively asked, "Hana-mai, did you and Kotegawa have a fight?"

The little bird paused for a moment, then turned its head to look over.

“Because…” Yujia quickly said, “You’ve been drinking this soup for an hour.”

Takanashi looked down and realized why the soup felt a little cold. She pushed the remaining half bowl of soup aside and frowned. "Well, I just don't like clam soup."

“But from childhood to adulthood, whenever you’re unhappy, you never eat properly…” As a friend of many years, Yujia analyzed logically: “When I came, you were still drinking soup heartily, but when you talked about Kotegawa, you stopped eating.”

The little bird, Hana-mu, paused for a moment, looking at Yu-jia with surprise.

Goodness, she didn't even know she had this problem.

She thought for a moment and said, "We didn't argue...we haven't spoken much for many days."

"Really?" Yuka muttered to herself, "Is he a little angry now because I didn't tell him about the music college?"

Takanashi picked up her phone and glanced at the quiet name on the screen. For a moment, a look of confusion crossed her eyes: "I don't know."

Youjia stared blankly at her, then said out of the blue, "Although this might not be the right thing to say, why do you two sound like a young couple having a tantrum?"

The bewildered little bird suddenly tensed up: "What young couple? Don't talk nonsense! Especially in front of a clear sky..."

Yujia realized she had misspoke, touched her nose, and chuckled dryly, saying, "I just slipped up, but Hanamai, I think you're being a bit too sensitive. Look at me, look at Kurumi, we still get along with Kotekawa just the same way, don't we? Kotekawa is actually quite sensible, he won't take advantage of me... For example, the other day, I was practically clinging to him, but he kept pushing my head away."

Takanashi thought for a moment and said, "He probably just doesn't want you to wipe your snot on his clothes. Besides, you're not his type."

Yujia subconsciously glanced down at her chest, quite indignantly: "Hmph, you're right!"

The only one among them with big breasts was Qingkong, and that guy even managed to get her.

"Wait a minute!" Yuka suddenly stood up and shouted, "Are we talking about who has bigger breasts and who has smaller breasts? We're clearly talking about what happened between you and Kotegawa!"

"Keep your voice down, I can hear you..." Takanashi Hanamaru got up and lay down on the sofa, wrapped herself in a blanket, stared at the ceiling, and murmured, "I just feel like some things are too absurd, and I don't know what to do..."

Youjia immediately moved closer to her like a cat that had smelled fish, and asked curiously, "What's so absurd?"

Takanashi thought for a moment, then used a euphemism to express what had been puzzling him for a long time: "Isn't it abnormal for a boy to want to marry several girls?"

Yuka thought for a moment and said in surprise, "Which guy doesn't fantasize about marrying multiple wives? It's normal, right? Even my younger brother dreamed of opening a maid café and marrying a house full of black wives before he started dating Ogasawara-senpai."

Takanashi was speechless for a moment before saying, "What if that boy really wants to marry several wives?"

“How could that be!” Yujia shook her head without even thinking: “Even if I could marry so many wives, I couldn’t afford to support them.”

Gu: "What if you could afford to raise them too?"

"That's impossible, isn't it? What makes him think he can marry several wives?"

"...Good-looking, rich, and powerful."

"How beautiful? Like Kotegawa?"

"……almost."

"Hmm, if it's someone like Kotegawa, then it's certainly possible." Yuka thought seriously, "Kotegawa isn't just handsome, he's not just strong, he's not just rich, he's a truly remarkable man. If he wanted to marry multiple wives..."

“No, we’re not talking about Kotegawa…” Takanashi corrected her: “For example, there’s a guy who looks similar to Kotegawa, and he wants to marry several wives.”

"Then let him marry her!"

Takanashi was stunned: "Huh?"

"Marry as many as you want!" Yu Jia said indifferently, "Anyway, it has nothing to do with us. It's their freedom to do whatever they want. Not every handsome guy is as virtuous as Kotekawa."

"He's morally upright?" Takanashi Hanamaru nearly choked on her breath, exclaiming angrily, "That brat is a wolf in sheep's clothing!"

"Huh?" Yujia was startled: "He seduced you?"

Takanashi shook his head: "No."

That guy only told her that he wanted to marry her and have several wives, but he didn't do anything like seducing her or using any forceful methods on her... but he was still despicable!

"Oh..." Yuka thought for a moment and said, "You mean you're using Kotegawa as an example, right?"

Takanashi nodded and emphasized, "For example, let's say Kotegawa is dating Haruka, but he wants to marry several wives, and you happen to be one of them. What would you do?"

"Oh! Now I understand!" Youjia nodded repeatedly, and after thinking for a while, she said hesitantly, "If that's the case, then we need to ask Qingkong what she thinks first. If Qingkong is willing, we can live together..."

Takanashi looked at her in disbelief: "Something's wrong with you, Yuka..."

Yujia blushed and argued, "Well! Anyway, I'll be finding a man to spend my life with in the future, but if I meet the wrong person and live such a miserable life every day, it's better to find someone I know well. That way, I'll definitely be more comfortable. So, under that premise..."

"But he already has a girlfriend! He's not single!"

Yujia said awkwardly, "I really haven't thought about this direction... It's too complicated for me, who's still an innocent girl... Hanamai, if it were you, would you be willing?"

Takanashi sighed, "That's why I've been so troubled! If I could figure it out, I wouldn't need to ask you for advice."

The two stared at each other, one big eye and the other small.

Yujia suddenly slapped her forehead: "That's right! Since the two of us can't think of anything, why don't we just find someone else? Let's ask Hu Tao! Oh no, Hu Tao can't go out right now... Let's have a conference call together!"

As she spoke, she took out her phone and called Hu Tao.

Takanashi initially wanted to call a halt, but then she thought that Kurumi might be facing the same problem as her, so she might as well listen to what Kurumi thought.

Chapter Fifty-Five: The New Year (Part Five)

At the entrance of the family restaurant, Uncle Kenji and Aunt Akiba got into their car. With Kotegawa and Haruka watching them go, the elderly couple drove home first.

After the car drove away, Kotegawa and Haruka held hands and walked together toward the nearby Takato Castle Ruins Park.

There was still a long afternoon ahead, and Aunt Qiuye felt that young people should spend more time and energy traveling and having fun, rather than wasting all their time and energy on chores, otherwise it would be too pitiful.

This wasn't Qingkong's first time visiting this area, and it was the dead of winter, so there wasn't much to see in Gaoyuan City. All that was left were bare tree branches, and the only view was the distant snow-capped mountains. But the scenery didn't really matter.

Kotegawa held Haruka's little hand, swaying along the way. When they were almost at their destination, he bought his girlfriend a warm cup of strawberry milk tea before entering the park.

Although there's not much to see here now, it's clear that there are more young people with nothing else to do, so even now, the park is still crowded with visitors, and you can see couples everywhere.

Kotegawa glanced around and gave up on his plan to find a quiet place to watch the distant snow-capped mountains with Qingkong. In such places, the quieter the place, the more wild mandarin ducks there would be.

He simply found a wooden bench, sat down, and then embraced Qingkong, letting her sit on his lap.

Qingkong was wearing a white fleece-lined cotton coat, which looked very nice, but it also looked a little cold. Of course, he felt sorry for his girlfriend, but when Qingkong sat on his lap, he unconsciously narrowed his eyes and hugged her a little tighter.

What's it like to hold a soft, petite, and delicate girlfriend in your arms during winter? It's simply indescribable...

Qingkong exhaled a breath of warm air, carrying the aroma of strawberry milk. She held the straw to her boyfriend's mouth, and Kotekawa took a sip, then suddenly thrust it forward, capturing her lips with his own, sharing the sweet fragrance.

Her cheeks flushed, and white milk tea spilled from her lips. She quickly wiped it clean with the back of her hand and glared at her boyfriend.

This guy is still outside.

With a smile in his eyes, Kotegawa leaned close to her ear and whispered a few words.

She blushed instantly.

That kid is absolutely wicked!

The two playfully teased each other, blending perfectly into the environment just like the couples around them.

The sunlight overhead gradually warmed up; one o'clock in the winter afternoon was probably the warmest time of day.
