However, the apology lacked sincerity. While he said there was nothing he could do about them, his expression revealed a hint of pleasure.
Jingu was clearly just indulging them, letting these guys run wild and express their personalities as they pleased, which actually made him happy.
"It's alright, please answer me first, Lord Jingu: can these conditions be met?"
Filtering out the laughter outside, Kagome gazed intently at the shrine.
If you're fishing, once a fish takes the bait, it has to go into the fish's belly, right?
Even though she was so serious, the shrine maiden still maintained a flippant demeanor, placing the Pure Glass Mirror on the table as if it were within her reach.
"Little Liuli..."
The first thing she said was an intimate address that made Ge Jing Liuli feel a little uncomfortable.
"Do you know? Choices like this only appear when you are powerless to do anything; it's a game where the strong manipulate the weak."
"It's like, if you, Xiao Liuli, had the ability to take this mirror back, would you still make this so-called deal?"
Although she didn't say it, Gejing Liuli already knew the answer.
"No, when you have that ability, any sacrifice, choice, or deal will only be a fleeting whim."
"A fish that has already been caught in the net pleads with the angler: 'Since I'm already in the net, can you let me have a couple more bites of bait?' This is just a sentiment that is entirely entrusted to the angler."
Jingu laughed, but the laugh seemed somewhat mocking to Kajō Ruri.
“If the bait were something else, I wouldn’t mind feeding it to you directly, but this won’t do. I can bring both fish home, why should I only bring one?”
Greed is the original sin of intelligent life, and the shrine is no exception; insatiable greed is its defining characteristic.
Ge Jing Liuli bit her lip lightly, these words meaning that she was determined not to give it to her, and would not agree to any conditions she offered.
Logically speaking, on such a matter involving principles, she should have used the consensus between hell and gods to intimidate others.
However, the shrine was clearly not one to be swayed by such tactics. What could be done when the cold hammer of judgment met an irresistible tyranny?
Kajō Ruri was at a loss for what to do. Perhaps she should go with the flow and send Ibuki to the Shrine under another pretext?
But once something happens, it will happen again; if it's broken the first time, it will happen a second time.
Once the principles of hell have been trampled on, others will want to follow suit.
Feeling extremely troubled, Ge Jing Liuli decided to go back first and ask her seniors for advice on how to handle the situation.
"Hey, why is Your Honor in such a hurry to leave?"
Jingu simply tapped the table, and Kagome Ruri's body involuntarily sat down again.
"The most serious criminals in Hell haven't been apprehended yet, and the Chief Judge has been a great help in my battle against Orochi. I should treat him to a proper meal."
"Guards, take the judge away to bathe and change."
Chapter 258 Differences
"you!"
Before he could speak, the shrine silenced him.
Narukami, who had been listening outside for a while, pushed open the door and walked up to Kajou Ruri. To show respect, he bowed slightly first.
"Your Honor, there are hot springs behind the shrine. Let me take you there."
She helped the beautiful Jingliu up and faithfully obeyed the orders of the shrine.
After Narukami helped Kajou Ruri leave, several more figures emerged from behind the door.
"Hey, you're not planning to sleep with her today, are you?"
Kaguya hummed and murmured as she approached, picking up the Pure Glass Mirror from the table and examining it for a while.
This is a treasure that only the judges of hell possess; it can see through people's hearts and souls, see through lies, and reveal the truth.
Even Kaguya had never encountered such a treasure before, which triggered her collecting obsession.
"want to?"
Jingu couldn't help but laugh as he watched Kaguya play with the object with obvious delight.
Even though I got the Yata Mirror, one of the Three Sacred Treasures, from Yagokoro before, Kaguya didn't seem to like it this much.
As expected, what you can't have is always the best. As the other half of Tsukuyomi, Kaguya often came into contact with the other two of the Three Sacred Treasures, except for the ferocious Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi.
In comparison, although the supernatural is secondary, I am more interested in new things that I don't usually come into contact with.
"Tch, what's yours is mine. I've let you play with my body, and you're still not willing to give me a mirror?"
Kaguya spoke in a matter-of-fact tone, or rather, in a slightly coquettish tone, and between the lines, she had already claimed the mirror as her own.
"Ha, just now outside you were saying things like 'forgetting the old for the new,' and 'being left alone in an empty room,' and now you're acting all coquettish here. Pah!"
Chiyo sneered a few times, ruthlessly undermining Kaguya, leaving Kaguya somewhat speechless with anger.
"Alright, alright, so that's what you've all been thinking lately, right?"
Jingu feigned anger and extended his demonic claws.
"Am I the kind of fickle, easily bored person? Looks like I haven't properly disciplined you guys lately."
The shrine has indeed been neglecting the girls there for some time due to other matters.
However, apart from the little shrine maiden who was rather clingy, the others didn't usually show much enthusiasm, so the shrine didn't pay much attention to it.
It now seems that a harmonious life in the bedroom was indeed the main factor in creating harmony in the harem.
"I don't want it."
Kaguya ran to the side with the mirror in her arms, while Chiyo had already run away on instinct.
"Ha, if you want the mirror, you have to exchange it for service."
With a wave of her hand, the Pure Glass Mirror flew away from her hand and landed in the hand of the goddess.
This thing can actually be prepared in two ways; it's a pleasant surprise.
After all, Kaguya always uses her appearance to charm or seek advantages when she is safe, but she prepares to run away as soon as there are any signs of trouble.
Moreover, it's unclear whether his habit of being sarcastic has become a genuine trait, or whether he's simply deliberately provoking the shrine, but he always knows the consequences yet can't help but utter a few more sarcastic remarks.
But now, tempted by the precious Mirror of Pure Glass, her senses have become numb and careless.
Kaguya hesitated for a moment, then reluctantly approached the shrine and extended her hand.
Her small, fair hands gently massaged the shoulders of the shrine maiden.
His technique was a bit clumsy, suggesting he rarely did this kind of thing, but seeing Kaguya's expression—reluctant yet forced to do it—was more than enough for Jingu.
While fiddling with the mirror in his hand, he inadvertently turned the mirror surface towards Kaguya, who shyly turned her head away.
"What? Want to look at yourself more? Don't you love looking in the mirror?"
As if discovering a new continent, Jingu teased Kaguya with a mirror.
This feeling is similar to when many girls had the same expression when taking photos on the island before, and afterwards they also chose to collectively seal away those photos.
And now, they are looking directly at their own faces in the mirror, doing things that should be done by others.
Kaguya, who always enjoys bossing others around and whose hobby is humiliating others, is experiencing the same thing again.
Seeing Kaguya shaking her head back and forth in front of the mirror, and finally giving up and covering her face, Jingu found it particularly amusing.
"Stop messing around, or I'll stop pressing the button!"
Kaguya, somewhat exasperated by Jingu's teasing, raised her hand to push Jingu's hand away and glared at him.
This exasperated look not only failed to frighten the shrine, but actually emboldened him even more.
He reached out and picked up the light-footed Kaguya, biting her ear with his mouth and gently pinching the back of her neck.
"what are you doing!"
Kaguya did not react as Jingu had expected, so it seems that the back of her neck is not her weak point.
Jingu was somewhat disappointed, thinking that if she lifted the cat by the scruff of its neck, there would be some special reaction.
I rubbed Kaguya's skin with my fingers. In terms of skin texture alone, Kaguya was indeed the most comfortable to touch among the people around the shrine.
It's a pity that it's too flat; it doesn't feel very smooth to the touch.
Jingu glanced at Kaguya's flat chest beneath her gorgeous kimono, clicked his tongue, and looked somewhat disappointed.
"If you like big ones, then touch them! If you don't, then don't touch them!"
Kaguya sensed the regret in Shingu's voice, and combined with his gaze, she sensed a surge of resentment rising from somewhere.
She didn't want it to be like this either! Why is the real Tsukuyomi so big, while she herself is so small?
Although Kaguya felt that she was prettier than Tsukuyomi herself, why was her sculpt not as good as Tsukuyomi's in this aspect?
"Oh, you're getting angry? That's strange."
Jingu chuckled twice, then ran his fingers along the roots of Kaguya's hair, stroking down the smooth strands.
"Don't worry, I don't care about such things. You're perfect as you are now."
Size doesn't matter, what matters is suitability; Kaguya's figure and appearance are a perfect match.
In terms of character creation, Tsukuyomi-sensei does a pretty good job. Perhaps one day I can discuss this kind of experience with him.
Kaguya, who was treated so gently by the shrine maiden, showed a slightly shy expression.
"Why bring this up all of a sudden? Of course I know I am perfect."
This appearance was quite unexpected by the shrine.
Normally, if you compliment her on her beauty and charm, she will accept it as if it were perfectly natural.
However, if you compliment or comment on her appearance in such an intimate and ambiguous situation, she will show a shy and girlish demeanor.
It's really interesting. It seems that sometimes, suddenly changing the usual way of interacting with girls can reveal a different side of them.
Jingu revealed a rather amusing smile.
