Tokyo: I am the Lord of All Demons!

Araki Makoto laughed and said, "My condition is that you have to fulfill the conditions you set yourself."

The girl in the black dress had a murderous look on her face: "I don't understand what you're saying? You mean you're giving up and letting me take care of your forces?"

Araki Makoto looked at him with disdain: "Don't put it so harshly, or it will make you seem uncultured; what I mean is, I can control the messengers of the gods, but those ghosts are beyond my control, and the ghosts now are not created by me."

The girl in the black dress slightly toned down her aggressiveness and said uncertainly, "Should I believe you?"

Araki Makoto tilted his head back slightly and retorted, "Is this a matter of belief? You claim to be the will of the world, so you should know their origins, right? How come you're blaming me?"

"You..." The girl in the black dress was speechless.

To be fair, what the world's will initially detected was indeed Makoto Araki "meddling" things, causing the ghost to descend into reality.

However, after that, the world's will discovered that there was no direct connection between them, but it did not doubt the origin of the new ghost and still believed that it was Makoto Araki's fault.

This is understandable, since when the world's will first took form, it automatically adopted the female protagonist's persona and once regarded Araki Makoto as its target.

However, after several battles, the girl in the black dress had accepted the fact that she could not defeat Makoto Araki.

Makoto Araki is already a god!

Seeing that the other party was still hesitating, Araki Makoto urged, "So? Deal?"

The girl in the black dress thought for a moment and said, "No, how about I give you an idea? You and your divine messenger claim to be acting on behalf of Heaven, right? Why don't you just go and destroy the ghost spirit? Why do you need me to do it?"

As soon as she said this, the girl in the black dress realized she had said the wrong thing and quickly covered her mouth, but it was too late.

"make a deal!"

Araki Makoto blurted it out, afraid that if he agreed too late, the other party would go back on their word.

As for why Makoto Araki agreed so readily, it's because they had actually been doing that all along.

Ghosts harm people, people pray to gods, and the gods send messengers to destroy the ghosts—isn't that exactly what these messengers of the gods have been doing all along? So, of course, Araki Makoto would happily agree to their request!

After being tricked, the girl in the black dress wanted to refute it, but considering that going back on her word would be a despicable act, and that she herself was the will of the world, going back on her word might lead to her disgrace.

Furthermore, the World Will is also helpless. She herself is completely unwilling to do anything to help others, so getting her to exterminate the demons is harder than climbing to heaven.

In the end, nothing changed after he transformed, and he had to turn back to his original form, looking disheveled.

However, the World Will did not regret coming here, because at least she saw Makoto Araki's abs, which was enough for her.

"I hope you can truly keep your promise and restore peace to the world." The World Will gazed at Araki Makoto's face and said, "I will always watch over you, forever..."

Then, she vanished.

It vanished without a trace.

The world that Makoto Araki lived in instantly collapsed, revealing the real world that actually existed.

Makoto Araki has now left Antarctica and is currently standing on a Japanese-style street, feeling somewhat lost.

"Is this the end?" Araki Makoto's gaze narrowed slightly. It wasn't that he doubted whether the World Will would break its promise; he simply couldn't believe that the World Will would have such awareness.

Yes, in Makoto Araki's initial prediction, the two sides would fight a bloody battle for at least several years before finally giving up.

However, the girl in the black dress seemed to have no fighting spirit or patience, and simply gave up.

Araki Makoto stood on the street, listening to the surrounding noise and smelling the aroma of barbecue and fried noodles wafting over.

This doesn't look like a street in Japan; it looks more like a street in the Divine Dragon Continent.

If this were the Divine Dragon Continent, it would truly taste like home; no wonder Makoto Araki's stomach was rumbling.

A familiar voice rang in Makoto Araki's ears: "Kami-sama!"

Araki Makoto turned his head and saw Shimizu Suzune and Ishikawa Risa running towards him.

You found it so quickly?

Originally, Makoto Araki was thinking of sitting down, having a big meal, and then returning to Japan to be his god, but...

Risa Ishikawa was the first to run to Makoto Araki's side, complaining, "Kami-sama, we've been looking for you for so long! What happened to you on the Dragon Continent?"

She circled around Makoto Araki: "Hey, you must be exhausted after fighting for so many days, right? Let me see if you're injured anywhere?"

Araki Makoto was a little surprised by Ishikawa Risa's greeting. Why has this woman become so docile again?

It's definitely an act.

Shimizu Suzune, on the other hand, seemed much more mature than Ishikawa Risa. Her first question wasn't one of concern or inquiries, but rather, "Has the World Will... been defeated?"

Araki Makoto glanced at Shimizu Suzune, who was engrossed in her work, and replied, "Yes, it's over."

Just then, Risa Ishikawa started acting up again, excitedly exclaiming, "Yay!"

"Let's put that aside for now..." Araki Makoto re-examined his surroundings and asked, "How did you get to the Divine Dragon Continent? You probably didn't sneak in, did you?"

Risa Ishikawa grabbed Makoto Araki's arm and said coquettishly, "Oh, Kamisama! What do you mean by smuggling? Customs deals with civilians, civilians! We cultivators are naturally not under their jurisdiction!"

Makoto Araki stroked his chin, his gaze slightly narrowing: "Come to think of it, it's ridiculous that you have to apply for a visa to go to the neighboring country for exorcisms..."

Shimizu Suzune, meanwhile, quietly opened her phone and said, "Kami-sama, you probably don't know yet, do you? The Divine Dragon Continent has visa-free access for Japanese citizens!"

Then, he handed over the phone.

"Is that so?" Araki Makoto took it and saw that it really was true.

Araki Makoto quickly handed the phone back to Shimizu Rin, saying, "Let's not talk about this now. I'm hungry. Let's eat first."

This was the first time the goddess had ever said she was "hungry," which Shimizu Suzune found incredible.

As for Risa Ishikawa, she didn't find it that strange, since these were all just her "settings".

Shimizu Suzune scratched her head, feeling somewhat incredulous: "Huh? It's right here? Kami-sama, do you have the currency of the Dragon Continent...?"

Araki Makoto nodded and said, "Yes, there are some. Let's go, what would you like to eat? It's on me."

Chapter 208 The New World

Interestingly, Fujita Mino and Kitamura Eri's group were unaware that the battle had ended before it even began.

For them, the battle against the world's will had not yet begun, so they naturally had no idea that the world's will had already been defeated by their supreme god.

Fujita Mino and Kitamura Eri remained hidden in the guesthouse they had chosen, wary of any potential enemy intrusions.

That night.

Kitamura Eri gazed out the window of the guesthouse for a long time, muttering to herself, "Something's strange today..."

"Is there something strange?" Fujita Mino asked, stepping forward with concern.

Kitamura Eri frowned and said, "Since this afternoon, I've noticed that there are fewer and fewer fake people outside, and more and more real people."

Fujita Mino, of course, didn't care at all: "Maybe it's just a coincidence? Both fake and real people are people, and we can't restrict their activities."

Eri Kitamura shook her head and said, "But I still find it strange. The world we live in was originally very quiet, but now it has become strangely lively."

Fujita Mino narrowed her eyes: "You mean..."

Eri Kitamura shook her head again and said, "I'm not so sure, but the only thing I'm sure of is that the world has very likely undergone earth-shattering changes."

“You mean…” Fujita Mino’s expression turned serious. She began to scan her surroundings and found that the situation was as calm as ever.

Yes, just like before, it's a familiar feeling.

Fujita Mino couldn't help but say, "They're back, they're all back..."

"You're back?" This time it was Kitamura Eri's turn to be confused.

At this moment, Fujita Mino simply opened the door, stepped out onto the balcony, and felt the gentle night breeze on her face, which was very refreshing.

Kitamura Eri followed them out, and the moment she stepped outside, she truly felt that the world had changed.

This world is very real.

Although Kitamura Eri is a spirit, she is a high-level spirit and can also "breathe" like a human.

The feeling of breathing fresh air is truly quite subtle.

The moment they stepped out the door, both Fujita Mino and Kitamura Eri understood that the world's will had been defeated.

This is a new world!

Looking at this beautiful world, Fujita Mino's thoughts raced. She then turned around and asked, "I'm going to find Camille-sama. What are your plans?"

“Me?” Kitamura Eri was slightly taken aback at first, then said, “I have nowhere to go…”

Fujita Mino stepped forward and took Kitamura Eri's hand: "Then come with me to find Kami-sama, okay? Didn't he promise to give you a new source of power?"

Upon learning that the other party was willing to take her along, Kitamura Eri immediately beamed with joy: "Okay, let's go together."

Fujita Mino nodded, then released her hand, closed her eyes, and murmured, "I need to find out where Cammy-sama is first..."

Soon, I sensed it.

Fujita Mino opened her eyes. "Kami-sama, it seems we're in Tokyo right now, around Chiyoda Ward."

Upon learning the location of the High God, Kitamura Eri was even more eager than her: "Then let's set off quickly!"

After all, being able to reincarnate from a ghost into a divine messenger or even a god is probably the best reward Kitamura Eri could ever hope to receive.

……

……

Fujita Mino's intuition was correct, and Araki Makoto subsequently returned to Japan with the two divine messenger girls.

Ultimately, Makoto Araki is merely a Japanese god, receiving offerings from the Japanese people. Therefore, this place can be considered the source of his divine power, and he can only return here.

Otherwise, Makoto Araki might have followed the example of the immortals of the ancient Divine Dragon Continent, finding a secluded mountain forest and living a life of quiet seclusion in the city.

To be fair, it's not impossible to retire to the mountains in Japan, but before that, he had more important things to do.

The Ara Shrine, which had been built by the Shinto Office and the divine messengers for some time, has now been completed and passed the Shinto Office's inspection.

This is a very large shrine, arguably the largest shrine in Japan. Walking along the approach to the shrine feels like walking in an imperial palace.

Araki Makoto stopped and looked at the temples in all directions. These temples, which had been occupied by false people before, lacked a bit of "divine aura" and instead gave people a gloomy feeling.

When Makoto Araki stopped, the two female warriors with swords also stopped, and Suzune Shimizu began to be wary of her surroundings.

Risa Ishikawa then stepped forward and asked, "Kami-sama, is there something you're wondering about?"

Araki Makoto smiled wryly and said, "This place is too yin. If I really slept in a place like this, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to sleep."
