Tokyo: I am the Lord of All Demons!

"Your Highness is right." Shimizu Rinne lowered her head slightly, stood up while maintaining this posture, and then selected a "naginata" from a pile of divine artifacts before leaving.

Having waited for Shimizu Rin to leave, Araki Makoto looked at Fujita Mino and ordered, "Stand up and look me in the eyes."

Fujita Mino didn't know why the god wanted her to do this, but she was almost certain that he was angry with her.

Otherwise, why would you be so serious!

Fujita Mino bit her lip, her palms sweating, then slowly stood up and looked up at Araki Makoto.

I must say, he's really handsome.

Fujita Mino's eyes were completely captivated by her goddess's face; she couldn't look away!

Her feet were also stuck together as if glued, making it impossible for her to walk!

How could this be?

Fujita Mino is no stranger to handsome men; with the internet so readily available these days, there's no shortage of handsome men out there.

But for Fujita Mino, the god emanated an indescribable, almost sacred light, as if illuminating the white moonlight in her heart.

Wait, that's not right.

It feels a little strange to say that he is your first love when you clearly have no dating experience whatsoever!

But no matter what, the current Goddess is Fujita Mino's white moonlight.

In that instant, I felt an urge to be with him forever.

Damn it...

Does this count as overstepping one's bounds?

A mere divine messenger, and not even the first divine messenger, actually wants to be with the supreme god forever...

Right across from Fujita Mino, Araki Makoto had no idea she could think so much, but he did see in her eyes the naivety that only an innocent girl could have.

To be fair, Fujita Mino herself is quite naive, otherwise she wouldn't act like a fool, fighting with ghosts at the drop of a hat, and leaving countless knife marks on her fair thigh.

With a wave of his hand, Araki Makoto could clearly feel the bandages and medication on his thigh starting to fall off.

She looked down in surprise and saw that after the bandages and medicine were removed, the original wound had disappeared and the skin on her thigh had returned to its smooth state.

The girl shouted with ecstasy, "Kami-sama, Arigatou!"

"Young maiden, I will bestow upon you a divine weapon. With this Kusanagi Sword, you can cleave through all demons and monsters." As he spoke, Makoto Araki waved his hand and summoned a lightsaber.

That's right, it's a lightsaber.

This is a longsword that radiates divine light. It has no scabbard, but that does not affect its portability.

It is a divine artifact, so it has the same characteristics as the White Blade and the Dark Bow. It can be hidden inside the body and only summoned to fight when needed, which is convenient and quick.

At Makoto Araki's summons, the divine weapon slowly moved to Mino Fujita's feet. Mino Fujita slowly stretched out her hands, trying to grasp the sword.

When her hands touched the sword, a tremendous force whipped her long hair and pushed her away.

Fujita Mino was pushed back several meters and staggered to a stop. She looked up in surprise at the long sword that was still standing in the air.

But her supreme deity remained completely still, as if the impact did not exist.

Looking at the longsword, Makoto Araki stroked his chin, pondering the power within it.

This longsword is the foremost of the three sacred treasures in Japanese mythology, and its power is unmatched by ordinary divine weapons.

However, its divine power was clearly not as strong as Araki Makoto's, otherwise Araki Makoto would have been blown away long ago.

Or rather, Makoto Araki is now the embodiment of Shintoism in Japan, and the power of Shintoism is his manifestation, including this sword.

This sword can be said to be the strongest divine power besides Makoto Araki himself, without exception.

As for why Makoto Araki gave the sword to Mino Fujita instead of Suzune Shimizu, there was no particular reason; it was simply that Mino Fujita happened to ask him for help at that moment.

Opposite to Makoto Araki, Mino Fujita was crawling towards them, the Kusanagi Sword still emitting waves of energy, hindering her progress.

In Fujita Mino's mind, this shockwave was nothing to fear, and nothing could stop her.

And so, Fujita Mino climbed up to the Kusanagi Sword again, braving the blast of air, rubbed her hands together, and prepared to conquer the sword once more.

This time, Fujita Mino gripped the sword hilt with both hands again. Of course, the sword resisted just like before, blowing an unprecedentedly powerful gust of air towards the girl's face.

The petite girl was once again thrown to the ground by the blast wave, rolling more than ten meters before coming to a stop.

Upon witnessing this scene, Makoto Araki fell silent. He began to doubt whether Mino Fujita could truly wield this longsword.

However, doubts seemed unnecessary, because Fujita Mino's willpower was astonishing, and she got up once again.

Despite her disheveled hair and unkempt appearance, her willpower has only increased.

In the depths of her eyes, Makoto Araki saw an exceptionally resilient spirit, forged through some profound experience.

Of course, Makoto Araki was unaware of Mino Fujita's family troubles and had no interest in learning about them.

Makoto Araki is now a god. He only likes beautiful female divine messengers and wants to see them dance the Kagura dance. Happiness is that simple. Everything else is just fleeting.

Fujita Mino turned back again, this time with a more steady stance and stronger willpower, ready to draw her sword once more.

Seeing her in such a disheveled state, Makoto Araki felt a pang of pity and was itching to help her.

Fortunately, Fujita Mino is not a weak woman; if she were, Araki Makoto wouldn't have liked her.

This time, with unwavering determination, Fujita Mino suddenly attacked the Ama-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi. Taking advantage of the sword's momentary lapse in attention, she drew the sword directly and grabbed it in her hand!

"I did it!" Fujita Mino's eyes shone with starlight as she raised the sword as if she were holding up the whole world.

Fujita Mino couldn't contain her joy. She skipped and hopped closer to Araki Makoto, laughing happily, "I did it, Kami-sama!"

Makoto Araki: "Oh."

My heart was completely unmoved.

He felt no unease; in his eyes, it was nothing more than drawing a Kusanagi sword, nothing serious.

However, Araki Makoto could vaguely sense Fujita Mino's joy, a feeling similar to an adult feeling the joy of a child unexpectedly receiving a lollipop, which could be considered as being able to empathize.

That said, there are two things Araki Makoto needs to do now. One is to wait for the best time to go to other areas and continue to train his area level from scratch.

Another matter, of course, is to consolidate the divine power in the Japanese region. He must be the only god in Japan, so he needs divine messengers like Fujita Mino to help him build shrines.

The problem is that Shinto Hall's influence is currently limited, and even Shimizu Suzune couldn't persuade her father.

Therefore, the only way to break the deadlock is a simple, old-fashioned method: Fujita Mino and the others must continuously increase their prestige by defeating monsters.

Now that the divine artifact has been delivered, there is no need for Makoto Araki to leave Mino Fujita here. It is not the time to talk about romance here.

Araki Makoto turned around and disappeared from the divine realm, while Fujita Mino was also teleported out of the divine realm and back to the Shinto Hall.

She woke up from her office as if in a dream, staring blankly at the scene before her.

Chapter 114 The One-Legged Grandpa

When Fujita Mino came to her senses, she twisted her cheek hard and felt a sharp pain.

Then, he checked whether he still had the Kusanagi Sword on him. Of course, he did, so he could confirm that he was not dreaming.

This is reality.

Having acquired the first divine weapon, the Kusanagi Sword, Fujita Mino's strength theoretically surpassed that of Shimizu Suzune once again, returning her to the peak of her divine envoy power.

So here's the question: what are the effects of this sword, which is hailed as the number one divine weapon?

It has no special effects; it simply and brutally releases divine power. It's that simple, violent aesthetic, unadorned and unpretentious.

Using this longsword, Fujita Mino can achieve the effect of "man and sword as one" with her god. The effect of the longsword striking the target is the same as the effect of the god striking with a casual swing.

Fujita Mina didn't even dare to imagine how powerful such an attack would be. All she knew was that the Supreme God could easily destroy the heavens and the earth, so this divine weapon must be something extraordinary.

Since the offices of the First and Second Divine Envoys were separated only by a glass partition, Shimizu Suzune quickly noticed the commotion when Fujita Mino returned.

She glanced in their direction, then stood up and walked over.

Fujita Mino noticed Shimizu Suzune who had already reached the door, so she stood up and went to greet her, "Shimizu-san!"

"So, what kind of divine artifact did the Supreme God give you?" Shimizu Suzune walked over with a friendly smile.

Fujita Mino thought for a moment, then said with a forced smile, "It's nothing, just a longsword."

She dared not say that the supreme god had bestowed upon her the most powerful divine weapon, the Kusanagi Sword, as doing so might incur jealousy.

Although she knew that Shimizu Suzune wasn't that kind of person, one should always be wary of others. In order to maintain a friendly relationship, Fujita Mino could only try to keep a low profile.

How could Shimizu Suzune not know what Fujita Mino was thinking? Everyone has secrets they want to hide, and as friends, we should respect other people's secrets.

Having guessed her thoughts, Shimizu Suzune stopped asking about the matter and changed the subject, saying:

"By the way, Morita-san and I are preparing to go and destroy Kisaragi Station before we leave. What are your plans?"

"Huh? Me? I'll just stay here and guard the Shinto Hall!" Fujita Mino replied casually.

First of all, exorcisms are something that only require two people; there's no need for the whole group to go. It's not Fujita Mino's turn.

If Shimizu-san was testing her just now, then there's no point in trying. Fujita Mino currently has no intention of showing off her skills in front of this senior.

Shimizu Suzune stared at Fujita Mino's face for several seconds before saying calmly, "Actually, my original idea was to take you with me, because Morita-san has her own unspeakable difficulties."

Fujita Mino avoided eye contact with her and instead said leisurely, "Oh, does she have some unspeakable difficulty?"

Shimizu Suzune said with a serious face: "She is the heroine of 2ch Kisaragi Station, Ms. Morita."

“Not surprising at all.” Fujita Mino turned her head. “After all, they have the same surname, and I think there are just such coincidences in the world.”

Yes, it's a coincidence.

The surname Morita is actually very common in Japan, and it cannot be assumed that everyone with the surname "Morita" is the same person.

In many schools in Japan, if a teacher casually calls out "Sato," several students will respond with "Sato."

Shimizu Suzune was not very satisfied with Fujita Mino's statement; her reaction seemed a bit too bland.

Or rather, Fujita Mino is that kind of person, with much more courage and boldness than the average girl, thinking that it's just a mere Kisaragi Station, nothing to worry about.

Shimizu Suzune narrowed her eyes, glanced at Fujita Mino, and said, "Morita-san, she might have some kind of psychological trauma..."

Since she said that, she must want Fujita Mino to be involved. In that case, he had no choice but to ask, "So what do you want me to do?"

Shimizu Suzune said earnestly, "I hope you can come with me, and that you can be responsible for Morita-san's safety."
