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

On the other side, Sorata Honma was completely dumbfounded...

Chapter 44 So Why Did We Run So Far (Part Two)

Finding cannibals isn't so easy.

Yamanashi Prefecture, Yamanashi Prefecture, has few mountains and few trees, so how could we dare to call ourselves that?

The entire county is surrounded by several large mountains in the center, forming a "basin".

The area is also mountainous. Not to mention other places, just look at Otsuki City, and you'll see a vast expanse of undulating mountains.

Kotegawa Kamimi and Shirakawa Kurumi rode their bikes for only half an hour before regretting it.

The two finally understood why others would rather wait idly at the bus stop than rent a bicycle.

Going downhill and uphill all the way must be insane to think of riding a bicycle aimlessly.

"Shall we go back and find a place to get a new motorcycle?" Shirakawa Kurumi was already sweating and quite exhausted.

Kotekawa Kami hesitated for a moment. Actually, he was in good physical condition, but he was also a little anxious, like "looking at a mountain and running to death."

He shook his head and said, "It would take another half hour to go back, and we might not even be able to rent one. Let's keep going; there shouldn't be any more uphill ahead."

Shirakawa Kurumi thought about it and agreed, so she gritted her teeth and kept pedaling, saying, "Then let's find a place to rest for a while and recover our strength."

"Okay," Kote Kawakami readily agreed, and then, to divert her attention, he made small talk: "Speaking of which, I saw you riding a bicycle in Kamakura the other day."

"Kamakura?" Shirakawa Kurumi pursed her lips, looking slightly annoyed. "He was tricked into going there that time. The guy in charge said he was going to broaden his horizons and add something to his resume, but actually he just thought he was an eyesore and deliberately brought him there to get rid of him by making him look at bicycles."

At this point, she complained, "That kid is really stupid! Doesn't he realize that a mere apprentice priest has no right to access a level six difficulty mission?"

Kotegawa Kami was taken aback. Was there really so many twists and turns in the original story?

It seems that wherever there are people, there is a world of its own.

Don't your parents care?

"How can we manage it? He did it voluntarily, and the other party has a reasonable explanation. There's nothing wrong with it on the surface. Even if we know he was tricked, there's nothing we can do about it! We can't even find an excuse to cause trouble."

Shirakawa Kurumi was even more frustrated, her eyes turning somewhat gloomy: "It's all because he's weak. After all this time, he's still just a trainee priest. No wonder he's looked down upon and easily manipulated."

"Now that you mention it, he's really in a bad situation."

Kurumi Shirakawa couldn't help but roll her eyes.

Kotekawa Kami thought for a moment and said, "But it's not necessarily a bad thing that the bag-carrying guy didn't go up the mountain that night."

"what?"

"Those people were pretty stupid; they spent the whole night fighting wild animals in the mountains," he briefly recounted what he had seen that night.

Shirakawa Kurumi was stunned for a moment, then squeezed the brakes and stopped, clutching her stomach and laughing heartily.

"They fought wild beasts all night, have those guys lost their minds?"

Kotegawa Kami nodded in agreement; he thought so too.

A little over a minute later, Shirakawa Kurumi finished laughing, and even the gloom between her brows dissipated a lot. She was slightly out of breath, her face was radiant, and her eyes were moist, making her very bright and charming.

The person next to him, Kami Kotekawa, stared blankly, unable to look away for a moment.

To be honest, this was the first time he had ever seen such a beautiful girl.

It's a pity that his physique is flawed, as he's not in his preferred area, but that doesn't stop us from watching him for a while longer.

He snapped out of his daze and said casually, "Shall we keep going?"

"Yeah, I feel better now! Let's go!"

The two continued on their way.

Feeling better, Shirakawa Kurumi was humming a tune when, after a while, she suddenly remembered something and asked directly, "By the way, what were you doing in Kamakura the other day?"

"Me? I took on a privately commissioned bounty mission."

"You also take on side jobs?"

"Otherwise what? Patrol the streets every day?" Kotekawa Kami retorted. How could a leisurely bounty hunter like him not find a way to make money?

Shirakawa Kurumi choked and couldn't speak.

She didn't think about the "Difficulty Level 6" wild samurai; in fact, according to normal thinking, she wouldn't have thought of it that way.

"This job has a reward of nearly 500,000 yen. If I complete it, it should be enough to last me a month, right?"

"You know, I eat a little too much."

"Feel sorry"

Shirakawa Kurumi looked embarrassed; she seemed to understand why Kotekawa Kami was so eager to make money.

With his appetite, even if he's not picky about food, it would still cost him a lot of money over a month.

She thought for a moment and said, "If everything goes smoothly this time, how about we split the profits 50/50?"

"Fifty-fifty split?" Kami's eyes lit up. "Really?"

Shirakawa Kurumi nodded. She didn't eat that much, and she wasn't short of money for the time being.

She looked at Kotegawa Kamimi with a hint of probing: "You don't mean you're out of living expenses, do you?"

"Huh? No, it's enough for living expenses." Kotekawa Kami thought about the tens of millions of yen that had just arrived in his account a couple of days ago, and felt that it would be enough for him to live on for many years.

“However, one cannot only think about the present,” he said earnestly, “eating is just the basics. Besides that, there are education, buying a house, getting married, and if you have children in the future, there will be expenses for their education, as well as various unexpected events that may occur in life. All of these things will cost money.”

Houses in Tokyo are really expensive. A decent one easily costs fifty or sixty million yen, and over one hundred million yen is the norm. Even more expensive ones are not uncommon.

But thinking about it, this is a world full of dangers. It's not surprising that a safe and developed place like Tokyo is so expensive.

"I wish I could kill some wild samurai every day," Kotekawa Kamimi thought to himself, dreaming of eating peaches.

Shirakawa Kurumi, who was standing next to him, listened in a daze.

What's causing this overwhelming pressure in life?

No, are these things that a first-year high school student should start thinking about?

You're only sixteen, right?

You've even thought about retirement? Why didn't you think of being more thorough?

She had a bellyful of complaints but nowhere to vent them.

The road ahead gradually leveled out. Kotekawa Kamimi gently squeezed the brakes, turned around and smiled, "We're going downhill now, don't go too fast."

That smile is so sunny and pure; she seems to be radiating light.

Shirakawa Kurumi paused for a moment, then turned her eyes and suddenly smiled, "Furutegawa, I have a good idea. I can't say it will completely solve all your troubles, but it should still be about 80% effective."

After thinking for a moment, Kamiko Kotekawa tentatively asked, "Rob a bank?"

Shirakawa Kurumi gave him a disgruntled look, then cleared her throat, puffed out her chest slightly, and said in a clear voice, "Find a rich woman in Tokyo, that way, I won't have so much pressure about a house, a wife, and the education of my future children."

"A rich woman?" Kote Kawakami was speechless, rolling his eyes and saying, "What kind of terrible idea is this? I have hands and feet, why would I want to live off a woman? If it really comes to that, I might as well rob a bank!"

"How can that be called being a kept man? At most, it's called marrying into the family, becoming a live-in son-in-law!"

“That won’t do either,” Kotekawa Kami said reluctantly. “I’m their only child, and they’ll need me to take care of them in their old age.”

"We can take care of them together! It's no big deal!"

Kami Kotekawa couldn't help but glance at her sideways, looking at her suspiciously, and said, "I think I'm getting the gist of it. You're going to introduce me to a rich woman?"

"Look at what you're saying, how could I let someone else have it?" Shirakawa Kurumi said with a smile, "I'm actually quite wealthy! Although I'm only sixteen, I already have over a million yen in savings, and my house is also very big."

"You?" Kotegawa Kami stopped and looked her up and down.

Shirakawa Kurumi's cheeks flushed, but she still tried to puff out her chest.

After a moment, he tentatively asked, "Where are you rich?"

Kurumi Shirakawa:

Chapter 45 Why Did We Run So Far (Part 3)

"Where are you rich?" Shirakawa Kurumi looked down at herself and asked uncertainly, "Can't you tell at all?"

Her long, slender eyebrows drooped slightly. She looked a little unhappy.

Even if this idiot can't see anything clearly, he should at least understand what she means, right?

Or was it that they wanted to see her embarrass herself on purpose?

Seriously, you bastard!

Kotekawa Kami realized that this topic was not something that could be discussed casually, and seeing that Shirakawa Kurumi's face was about to burst into tears, he quickly said, "Let's continue on our way? Let's finish our work first."

Shirakawa Kurumi paused for a moment, then nodded, puffing out her cheeks.

Indeed, work is important.

Kotekawa Kami breathed a slight sigh of relief, pedaled his bicycle, and kept his head down as he rode forward.

Damn it, how come this girl looks so beautiful even when she's angry?

No, no, he's a "broad-minded" type, we absolutely can't let him be swayed so easily again!

The second half of the journey is much easier, consisting entirely of comfortable downhill sections.

The gentle breeze was refreshing and carried the fresh scent of grass and trees.

The slight annoyance between Shirakawa Kurumi's brows had long since dissipated. Looking ahead, she said, "We're here! It's just ahead!"

Kotegawa Kami nodded.

He noticed it too.

A few hundred meters ahead, there was a cluster of dilapidated houses with broken walls, stretching all the way to the dense forest behind, looking like it had been deserted for a long time.

On the outermost edge, there was a car with a special logo.
