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

At 8:20 in the morning, just before leaving the house, Youjia, still feeling a bit sleepy, looked at Qingkong blankly and tilted her head, saying, "Qingkong, are you in such a good mood today?"

“Yes…” Qingkong answered lightly, handing her a bag of cream candies.

Yujia took it blankly, looking even more puzzled.

She turned to look at Kotegawa and asked in surprise, "You're so happy as soon as you get back... What did you do?"

Kotegawa took a milk candy out of his pocket, popped it into his mouth, and mumbled, "Guess what? No prize if you guess right."

"Then guess whether I'll guess or not!" Youjia hummed a few times and ate a milk candy as well.

Actually, she prefers orange and corn flavored gummies to milk candies.

The three locked the door and set off for school.

Looking at the brighter sky and the milk candy in her hand, Kotori, who was waiting for them at her doorstep, felt a little lost.

This situation continued until they encountered Hu Tao.

Walnut accepted the candy, looked at the clear sky, then at the Kotegawa River, and looked at the clear sky again, smiling as she said, "It's wonderful. The flowers nurtured by sticky love are the most beautiful."

"Sticky love?" Takanashi and Yuka were both completely bewildered.

What a strange adjective.

Qingkong, having understood, blushed and quickly said, "No, it's not like that! It's... it's because of something else, it's..."

She kept glancing at Kotegawa.

Kotegawa trembled with his own true spirit, and a voice resounded from the depths of Kurumi's heart: "This time in the Demon Kingdom, I found Seikatsu's parents..."

He offered a brief explanation, which also served as an explanation of why he hadn't gone to see her last night.

Hu Tao was surprised for a moment, but her expression returned to normal. She sincerely said to Qing Kong, "That's great. It might be a little inappropriate... but congratulations on your reunion."

Qingkong took a deep breath and nodded vigorously.

Yes, so what if we become ghosts? As long as we can be together...

Takanashi and Yuka, who were following behind, were even more confused.

Why does it sound like they're talking about something they don't know?

"Clear sky?" Yujia couldn't help but exclaim.

Qingkong turned around, pulled the two of them aside, and nervously told them what was going on.

She naturally wouldn't hide the fact that these two good friends had supported and helped her during the darkest period of her life.

Takanashi and Yuka were also stunned, but the latter had at least been to the Demon Kingdom, so she was more receptive than Takanashi.

Yuka exclaimed in surprise, "In a place like that..."

She had told Haruka Kotori about the harsh environment of the Demon Kingdom more than once, and she never expected that Kotegawa would be able to find Haruka's parents in such a place.

That's a bit too amazing.

"That's wonderful! Congratulations, clear skies!" Takanashi said sincerely.

Among her friends, she seemed to be the only one who hadn't actually seen a ghost yet. However, listening to her two best friends talk about these things, she felt a mix of curiosity and fear.

The girls started making a ruckus.

The bespectacled guy and the little priest at the very back each had a bag of candy in their hands, and both of them looked like they hadn't woken up yet.

Kotegawa looked at them and said with a smile, "What happened? What did you two do last night?"

Glasses-kun rubbed his eyes and yawned, saying, "Well, last night I chatted with Ogasawa-senpai for an hour first, and then asked Shirakawa a lot of questions about gold. I didn't pay attention to the time and we chatted a bit late."

The junior priest, who also had dark circles under his eyes, glanced at him and said expressionlessly, "Actually, we finished talking about the gold a long time ago. The main thing is that I listened to him talk about the black hiss for three hours afterward."

"Huh?" The bespectacled guy was taken aback, scratched his head and said, "Well, the questions you asked back then were very professional, and you obviously have some knowledge of Black Siren. I felt like I had met a kindred spirit. Maybe that's why I forgot about time?"

The young priest's face turned red.

Kotegawa, standing next to him, twitched his lips and gave the little priest a disdainful look.

A guy who's secretly passionate but actually secretly horny.

The little priest's face immediately darkened.

Kotegawa originally wanted to make a few sarcastic remarks to him, since the kid couldn't beat him anyway.

But before he could finish speaking, snowflakes suddenly began to fall from the sky. He paused slightly, his gaze hardening.

"Furutegawa-kun, if it's convenient, could you come to my place right away? Hmm, something very important and not very good is about to happen, so please don't delay..."

He stopped, hesitated for a moment, and said to the other kids who had also stopped, "You guys go to school, I suddenly have something urgent to take care of."

He glanced at Qingkong and Hutao, and said with a smile, "I'll be back soon."

Qingkong nodded silently and said softly, "Be careful."

Hu Tao was somewhat suspicious, but seeing his serious expression, she didn't say anything funny and just waved her hand: "Be careful!"

Kotegawa then looked at Takanashi and Yuka, and said with a smile, "I'll bring back souvenirs this time, so look forward to it."

Both girls rolled their eyes.

How come it's considered a souvenir for them?

After saying goodbye to his friends, Kotegawa turned around, hailed a taxi, and headed home.

In the car, his expression turned serious again.

Bei Yujianzun actually took the initiative to seek him out... What could it be that made even Him think it was a bad thing?

Could it be that he killed a cursed god and is now wanted by the Earth Kingdom?

Chapter 160 Divine Seals (4000 chapters combined)

Around 10 a.m., Kotegawa arrived at the edge of the Daisetsuzan Mountains. He gazed at the mountain range and compared it with the mountains he had seen when he entered the country two days earlier.

"Except for the lack of snow, everything is exactly the same..." he muttered to himself, before turning into clouds and mist, reaching the summit of the Great Snow Mountain.

A large white cloud floated quietly in the sky, and Bei Yujianzun lay on his side on it. His thin, gauze-like clothes could not hide his exquisite curves. He propped his head up with his hand, as if he had just dozed off. It seemed that he had been waiting for some time.

Kotegawa noticed how relaxed he seemed, which didn't quite match the "serious situation" he had mentioned earlier...

However, if He is in a real hurry, He will go directly to Him instead of waiting for Him to come "slowly".

He walked over in a few steps.

Bei Yujian sat upright, his hands folded together on his lap, as he descended with the white clouds.

Kotegawa cupped his hands in a gesture of respect.

Kitami Kenzun raised his pale white hand, and instantly countless snowflakes fluttered down, transforming into a huge vortex that enveloped the mountaintop.

It is quite impressive that they can manipulate the power of wind and snow with every gesture.

"I'm not lying to you. If I hadn't discovered it first, something really serious would have happened."

Perhaps feeling that he had seen her drowsy, sleepy sleeping posture, Bei Yujianzun spoke first to explain.

Kotegawa chuckled dryly twice, said nothing, and just listened intently.

Bei Yujian looked him up and down, a strange expression suddenly appearing on his face: "How strange, I clearly sensed the fluctuations of the divine seal earlier, but now they're gone..."

He then asked him in an inquiring tone, "Why do you have the power fluctuations of a divine seal on you?"

Kotegawa was stunned for a moment, looked down at himself, and then looked at Him with surprise and doubt.

...A divine seal fluctuation? How did He sense it? Was He being monitored? Or did this god have a habit of secretly watching his subordinates?

Kitami Takematsu could not hear his inner thoughts, or perhaps he did not listen out of the dignity befitting a god.

He still looked puzzled.

Kotegawa asked calmly, "Excuse me, what is a divine seal?"

“The divine seal, the divine seal is…” Bei Yujianzun carefully chose his words, his fingers tracing several ice marks in the air, condensing into the shape of a stone, and affirmed, “It is the divine seal.”

Kotekawa suddenly realized, slammed his right fist into his left palm, and then cupped his hands in a gesture of respect.

Indeed, your words are as good as a lecture!

Bei Yujian cleared his throat lightly and said casually, "The current divine seals are all fragments, but if they are all collected, one can master the corresponding divine rules and potentially become the corresponding god."

Kotegawa's eyes widened suddenly, and his mind went blank.

At this moment, Kitami Kenzun added, "This is how it is said in the Divine Order of the Three Noble Sons."

Before Kotekawa could even feel the joy, he was suddenly doused with ice and snow, and exclaimed in disbelief, "The Divine Seal is something from the Three Noble Sons' Divine Order?"

“However!” Bei Yujian continued, “The gods who master the rules of the divine seal are much stronger than the subordinate gods of the Three Noble Sons. Although they are also driven by the Three Noble Sons, they can at least get some respect.”

Kotegawa could not accept it.

Even a top-tier thug is still just a thug, what good is he!

Seeing his distressed state, Kitami Takezō said again, "I am not the only one who can sense the fluctuations of the divine seal. Moreover, Tokyo is Amaterasu's territory. If something that the Three Nobles do not allow were to happen, I probably wouldn't even have time to save you. But I was worried that you would eat something indiscriminately, so I had to call you over in a hurry, lest my true king suddenly become one of the Three Nobles's people."

"I'm not going to chew on rocks!" Kotegawa retorted, his expression revealing a complex mix of emotions.

His mood took a rollercoaster ride, a complete 360-degree turn. Although he had doubted for a moment whether Bei Yujianzun was lying to him, he now had to admit that what He said was true.

If the method of becoming a god through divine seal is indeed related to the fourth divine order, the Three Noble Sons of the Divine Order will certainly not sit idly by.

He began, “This time I discovered a place called the Land of the Earth in the Underdark, and the hellhound guarding the gate seems to recognize you?”

"The Earthly Kingdom?" Kitami Kenzun tilted his head slightly, somewhat surprised. "You actually went to that place... Well, before I became a god, I often went there, and those two dogs were my friends."

"Are the hellhounds with similar strength to him just small dogs...?" Kotegawa straightened his expression and continued, "I encountered an evil god there that ate ghosts, called something like Curse God. I fought with it... Is the divine seal fluctuation you mentioned related to it?"

"A cursed god?" Kitamune Kenshin's gaze flickered slightly blankly. "I don't recall such a little creature existing in the Earth Kingdom. That's a bit strange... Did you kill it?"

“Yes, I killed it,” Kotegawa answered calmly.

The corpse of the Curse God is lying in the Realm of Impermanence, which Bei Yujian can see through. Although he probably hasn't explored it yet, it would be awkward for him to say he didn't find it if he did.

Kitami Kenzun blinked: "Why don't you show it to me?"

Kotegawa turned around and dragged the massive body of the Cursed God out of the domain.
