I'm having fun in Tokyo

The two figures reappeared in the main hall square.

The heads of the households were still seated in the square.

They had just witnessed Morikawa Yu release his domain and easily suppress Wei Meng's illusory world, and their worries about Morikawa Yu dissipated as a result, so they all sat firmly in their respective seats.

The shrine maidens and Natsuko Shimazaki stood on the side closest to the main hall.

Seeing Morikawa Yu and Miyu reappear, Shimazaki Natsuko took a few steps forward and came to Morikawa Yu's side: "Your Highness?"

Morikawa Yu waved her hand: "It's nothing."

He looked at Wei Meng and waved his hand, "Since everything's alright, you can go back now."

Wei Meng nodded and bowed: "Yes, Your Highness Morikawa."

"I will send you the apology for my earlier offense once I return to Ise Grand Shrine."

Morikawa Yu gave a nonchalant "hmm" and then had the shrine maiden lead her away from the plaza in front of the main hall and out of the worship hall.

After Wei Meng's figure disappeared at the corner of the road around the worship hall, he looked at the heads of the various families again.

The heads of the families all turned their attention to him.

They did not know Miyu's true identity; they only knew that she was an envoy of the Ise Grand Shrine.

To them, the messenger of Ise Grand Shrine was a terrifying figure, but to the high-ranking shrine priest, he was probably just a messenger.

So they didn't pay too much attention, but were just a little curious about what Wei Meng had said to Sen Chuan Yu.

But since Morikawa Yu didn't say anything, none of them dared to ask.

"Continue with what we were just talking about," Morikawa Yu said calmly.

The heads of the families exchanged glances and nodded.

......

The meeting ended about half an hour later.

The meeting was originally scheduled to discuss the changes in the heads of upper-class families in Tokyo over the past two months, but the heads of families were shocked to hear of Yoshiko's "death". The meeting then turned into a discussion on how to handle Yoshiko's "afterlife" and the inheritance of the Shinto shrine's private property.

After much discussion, Morikawa Yu made the final decision that the shrine and Kondo Ie would jointly hold the "funeral" for Yoshiko.

None of the heads of the family had any objections.

As for the envoy from Ise Grand Shrine who appeared halfway through the meeting, the heads of the families tacitly pretended not to see him, at most keeping it in mind and wondering if something big was about to happen.

"That concludes today's meeting." Morikawa Yu stood up. "You may all go home."

The heads of the families also stood up and bowed to him.

After they finished paying their respects, they began to leave the square in front of the main hall.

Once they return home, they will tell their families what they saw and heard at the meeting, and within a day or two, the news of his appointment as the head priest will spread throughout the upper echelons of Tokyo.

Once Ryoko's "funeral" is over, he will go from acting head priest to the official head priest of the shrine.

"Sigh, I never thought I'd end up becoming a god."

Morikawa Yu shook her head, her gaze complex.

Ryoko emerged from the Goshuin-cho and landed on the ground. She smiled gently at him and said, "It's alright. I'll take care of the Shinto lord's affairs for you. I won't leave you without time to spend with Hiizuki and the others."

As she spoke, she reached out her hand, seemingly wanting to touch Morikawa Yu's head, but the height difference between the two prevented her from doing so.

Xiao Liangzi sighed and withdrew his hand.

Morikawa Yu's heart moved.

He suddenly wanted to touch Ryoko's head to see how she would react.

However, considering the terrifying consequences that doing so might have, he suppressed this audacious idea.

Ryoko, oblivious to his thoughts, asked, "Morikawa, are you going home later?"

Morikawa Yu nodded: "Yes."

After finishing up at the shrine, of course I have to go home to be with my wife; otherwise, what's the point of staying at the shrine?

"Ryoko, is there anything else?"

"I'm fine," Ryoko shook her head. "I just wanted to ask if you'll be living at home or at the shrine from now on."

Morikawa Yu was startled: "I'm going to live at the shrine from now on?"

Ryoko nodded: "You are now the head priest of the shrine, and this hall is your residence."

"According to tradition, you should live at the shrine..."

At the entrance of the main hall, Shimazaki Natsuko also looked over.

After the regular meeting just ended, the priestesses tidied up the plaza in front of the main hall and then went to do their own things.

But as a divine child, she had to stay by the divine master's side at all times to serve him, so she stayed at the entrance of the main hall and listened to Morikawa Yu and Yoshiko's conversation.

Only she, Ryoko, and Morikawa Yu remained in the entire plaza in front of the shrine.

“Princess Morikawa.” Shimazaki Natsuko approached.

"We have prepared your room in this palace. Would you like to check in today?"

Morikawa Yu hesitated for a moment: "Are you really going to stay here?"

"And what about Ryoko?"

“This temple has many rooms, I will stay in another room.” Liangzi chuckled: “Since you are made the God Lord, naturally all the treatment will be the same as that of a real God Lord.”

"I'm ready to live an anonymous life, only handling business matters, and enjoying life in my spare time."

Shimazaki Natsuko nodded as well: "Yes, Princess Morikawa."

"Princess Ryoko has already instructed us that you are the true shrine master, so of course you can stay in the shrine. We shrine maidens will serve you and take care of all your needs."

Ryoko also looked at Morikawa Yu, seemingly waiting to see what his decision would be.

Morikawa Yu thought for a while, and although she was somewhat looking forward to being served by the shrine maidens, she shook her head.

Are you kidding me? I just had my wedding.

If we don't stay at home and instead go to the shrine at this time, we'll probably be eaten alive by Hiizuki and the others.

......

Soon, Morikawa Yu used the teleportation skill to return home.

When he went out in the afternoon, he marked the return point in the study of his new home and appeared directly in the study.

My older sister is hunched over the desk in the study, writing something.

He glanced at it and realized it was a diary, the one she had been writing in all along.

"Sister, are you still writing in your diary?" he asked softly.

The older sister was startled and immediately transformed back into her spirit form. When she turned around and saw it was him, she breathed a sigh of relief and said in a coquettish voice, "Little brother, don't suddenly appear behind me and scare me."

After she finished complaining, she sighed and said, "It's just writing in a diary, so I'll just write whatever comes to mind."

"Just consider it a record of life."

Morikawa Yu nodded.

He bent down and hugged his sister from behind before turning around and going downstairs.

The older sister stopped writing in her diary, closed it, and, in her spirit form, climbed onto his back and followed him downstairs: "Little brother, I heard from Feiyue that you've become the acting god, right?"

"Yes." Morikawa Yu nodded.

"Ryoko is about to pass away due to her lifespan. My friend and I couldn't bear to part with her, so we found a way to turn her into a child."

"She was embarrassed to appear in front of others in the form of a child, so she asked me to act as her proxy deity, to handle the public affairs on her behalf, while she handled the deity's affairs in secret."

"I helped her with the routine meeting today. In a couple of days, she will officially take over the position of chief priest..."

He and his sister were talking as they walked into the large living room on the first floor.

Mrs. Kazumi was sitting with Chi-chan at a table in the living room, teaching Chi-chan to do her homework. When she saw him come back, she immediately stopped what she was doing and stood up.

"I'm back," Morikawa Yu called out with a smile.

Lady Hemei immediately nodded to him.

Chi-chan nodded crisply.

Feiyue opened the door from her room at that moment: "Welcome back, my husband."

She walked towards Morikawa Yu.

Mitsuko rushed out of the kitchen next to the living room, hugged Morikawa Yu, and rubbed her fluffy ears against him.

"Darling! Welcome back!"

"Big fox, what are you doing..." While holding Mitsuko, Morikawa Yu stroked her hair and was somewhat surprised to find that she was wearing an apron.

Mitsuko immediately let go of him, took two steps away from him, opened her arms, and spun around.

"That's right, it's an apron."

"I'm cooking dinner tonight, are you excited?"

Is the big fox cooking today?

Morikawa Yu was startled and looked at Mrs. Kazumi and Chi-chan.

No wonder Mrs. Kazumi was teaching Chi-chan in the living room; it turns out the big fox had taken over the kitchen.

"Big Fox, you can cook?" he asked, glancing toward the kitchen.

After Mitsuko ran out, half a head peeked out from the kitchen. Although her face was not visible, the cat ears on her head and the cat tails on her head identified her.

It's not Nishino, it's Asaka.

Nishino has only three tails, while Asaka has nine.

“Of course I will.” Mitsuko chuckled. “Back then, Tamamo was a very picky eater, so I cooked for her myself.”

"And Asaka and Nishino are also helping out."

"Don't worry, darling."

Nishino?

Morikawa Yu paused for a moment before noticing that after Asaka peeked out from the kitchen doorway, Nishino also came out of the kitchen.

She was also wearing an apron, and three tails swayed slightly behind her.

"Welcome back, my lord."

"Yes, I'm back." Morikawa Yu greeted the catgirl with a smile.

The kitten girl said, "Please wait a moment, my lord. I will help Princess Mitsuko prepare dinner tonight. I will make sure that my lord is satisfied. Please look forward to it."

"Tch." Asaka turned her face away.

Morikawa Yu smiled, wanting to talk to Asaka as well, but then she noticed that Shinkaku had come out of her room.

The young maid approached him timidly, looking at him shyly: "Master, I can't cook..."

Yeah, all you do is cook.

Morikawa Yu shook her head inwardly, but still patted her head: "It's okay, Shinjue, you've already done enough."

Xin Jue nodded.

Mizuko smiled and said, "Then I'll go back and continue making dinner for you, my dear."

Morikawa Yu nodded, looked at Mitsuko, Asaka, and Nishino, and walked towards the kitchen.

Feiyue came up to him and sighed.

"Everyone is around you, you greedy husband, you're really getting off easy."

Morikawa Yu pretended not to understand, pulled her into his arms, lowered his head, buried his face in her chest, and rubbed against her through her clothes.

Feiyue sighed helplessly, stroking his back and letting him take advantage of her.
