I'm having fun in Tokyo

Chapter 638 Let's make an exchange!

"Lord Ryoko?" The shrine maiden was surprised.

As she watched Ryoko flying towards Morikawa Yu, she felt as if she were hallucinating and couldn't quite recognize her.

In fact, Ryoko does look different now than before.

The original Ryoko was a gentle and beautiful woman with a Japanese style, but now she looks like she has become more than ten years younger. Her tall and beautiful figure has become petite, and her face is soft and cute. She has transformed from a mature and beautiful woman into a seven or eight-year-old girl with long black hair.

She had only ever seen mature and beautiful women like Ryoko before, but now that she saw the loli Ryoko, she almost didn't recognize her.

However, she quickly recognized that the loli Ryoko was Ryoko.

Ryoko has simply shrunk and regained her childhood body.

She looks very similar as a child and as an adult, both resembling a cute, Japanese-style little girl.

Moreover, there are only a few of them who are the highest-ranking deities. They hold a deity council meeting every year. As the deity of Izumo, she would also see Yoshiko at the annual deity council meeting and was very familiar with Yoshiko's appearance.

In addition, thanks to Ryoko's signature method of transmitting divine power, she recognized Ryoko immediately.

She just couldn't understand why Ryoko had become like this.

Shenzhi was also somewhat surprised.

She recognized Ryoko and was somewhat surprised by the change in her.

She was a great yokai from the Izumo era. When it was the Izumo Taisha's turn to preside over the Shinto meeting, she would listen in on the meeting and of course saw Ryoko, remembering the scent of Ryoko's soul.

To a yokai, a human soul is very special and unique, much easier to recognize than appearance, and she would never mistake it. She recognized Ryoko immediately.

She was also somewhat surprised by Ryoko's change, and for a moment she forgot that she was still fighting with Mitsuko, and simply surrounded herself with her demonic power.

The priestess also frowned.

But she wasn't as surprised as the shrine maiden and the goddess. She just looked at Ryoko with curiosity, and finally fixed her gaze on Morikawa Yu, her brows furrowed as if she was thinking.

On the other side, Mizuko and Hiizuki exchanged a glance, then both stopped and flew towards Morikawa Yu and Ryoko, returning to Morikawa Yu's side.

Feiyue asked Morikawa Yu, "Husband, why is Ryoko here? Did you ask her to come and help?"

Although they didn't know why Ryoko had suddenly come, they could guess that it was Morikawa Yu who had summoned her.

After all, Morikawa Yu hesitated when they asked him to decide whether or not to try to seize the source of divine power. At this point, it's likely that he called Ryoko to help them deal with the priestesses.

Morikawa Yu nodded: "Yes, it's me."

Ryoko finally flew to Morikawa Yu's side and gently waved to Morikawa Yu, Hiizuki, Mitsuko, and Inaba Tenshi and Asaka who were watching the battle from the side.

"Hizuki, Mitsuko, I'm here. How did your fight go?"

Feiyue shook her head: "There are no results yet."

“Just now, when Mitsuko made her move, I stayed by my husband’s side to prevent them from harming him, and then you arrived shortly afterward.”

"No results yet?" Upon hearing this, Liangzi pondered for a moment and nodded.

That makes sense, since both sides in the fight are powerful figures at the pinnacle of their respective fields.

At their level, mere demonic or divine power, or even the amount of authority they possess, becomes irrelevant. What they usually compete in is their inherent strength, which makes the battles extremely long. It often takes a long time for a winner to emerge, and it's not like one side is at a disadvantage and about to lose as soon as the fight begins.

This relieved her.

Actually, she was more worried that the priestess would suddenly kidnap Morikawa Yu and escape with her into the heart of Izumo.

The fight had just begun, and since Morikawa Yu was safe and sound, she was relieved.

She looked at the priestess opposite her.

The priestess frowned.

Although she was somewhat curious about why Ryoko had become like this, Ryoko's appearance posed a greater threat to her, and she was more concerned about why Ryoko had suddenly come.

"Lord Ryoko, what brings you here?"

As she spoke, she kept a close watch on Hiizuki and Mitsuko.

That was her, along with Kamori and Himegami, who were fighting against Hiizuki and Mitsuko.

Although they are inferior in strength, they have the advantage in numbers and are fully capable of gradually gaining the upper hand by relying on their respective strengths and defeating Hiizuki and Mitsuko.

The sudden arrival of Ryoko is very disadvantageous for them.

Liangzi smiled slightly: "Of course I came to avoid unnecessary conflict, Lord Shuiyue."

The priestess gave a cold laugh: "Unnecessary conflict? Are you referring to my decision to preserve the source of Orochi's demonic power within the seal and not hand it over to you?"

"I'm sorry, she is a divine demon from our Izumo era, and she is currently sealed within our Izumo. You can forget about obtaining her; I will not give you even a single bit of her demonic power!"

Ryoko frowned slightly.

She looked at the priestess and shrugged: "If that's how you put it, then we can't continue this discussion."

"We just want to exchange something very precious for her demonic power, not really to steal her away. If you keep acting like this, I'm afraid we'll have no choice but to fight each other."

The priestess: "Something very precious? What is it?"

Ryoko glanced at Morikawa Yu.

She wanted to talk about the shrinking drug, but it belonged to Morikawa Yu, so she wanted to ask Morikawa Yu's opinion first before bringing it up.

If Morikawa Yu doesn't want her to talk about it, she won't.

After all, she really wanted to keep this a secret.

Morikawa Yu nodded.

Ryoko then looked at the priestess: "Of course it's something incredibly precious to us. It won't make you stronger, but it can solve your biggest fear right now."

The shrine maiden paused, looking at Ryoko with suspicion: "What scares me the most...?"

She subconsciously began to think.

If there's one thing that scares her the most right now, it's only one thing: her lifespan is coming to an end.

Even though she was the most noble and powerful supreme deity in Izumo, one of the most powerful figures standing at the pinnacle of secrecy, she was still afraid of this matter.

Between life and death, there is great terror.

She was also afraid of dying and did not want her body to disappear.

But the moment she took over the position of God, she was destined to never be able to change her lifespan again.

The Supreme God Lord granted her the ability to become an unparalleled powerhouse capable of contending with the demons of the divine age in a short period of time, at the cost of her lifespan being as short as that of an ordinary person.

The way of the divine master is to elevate the human body above the divine, becoming even more powerful than the gods. How can this be achieved without any sacrifice?

That's why she plotted so much, wanting Hanamiyuki to obtain Orochi's demonic power, so that Hanamiyuki could become a powerful half-demon like the great demon of the Age of Gods, and then take over the position of the god.

Hanami Yuki wouldn't have to face the terror of life and death decades later like she did.

This was the only thing she, as a teacher, could do as her life was about to end, which is why she spared no effort to protect the seal of Orochi on the Oki Islands.

Hearing that Ryoko had a way to solve her biggest fear, and thinking about Ryoko's current appearance, the shrine maiden suddenly had an idea that made her body tremble slightly.

"Lord Ryoko... that incredibly precious thing you mentioned, it couldn't be......"

“That’s right.” Ryoko continued the priestess’s words and said softly, “The precious thing I mentioned is a medicine that turned me into what I am now and restored my childhood body.”

"Thanks to it, my body has returned to its youthful state, and I no longer have to worry about the end of my life and death."

“I can live a long time, and I can even take this medicine again to prolong my life.”

The shrine maiden stared blankly at Ryoko, but she did not doubt Ryoko's words.

She could feel the vitality emanating from Ryoko, a vitality that was incomparable to her own, which was nearing the end of her life and exhausted.

Furthermore, the fact that Yoshiko recently gave Morikawa Yu the position and power of the God-King, but did not hand over the God-King's power to Morikawa Yu, also corroborates Yoshiko's words. If Yoshiko's lifespan is coming to an end, she certainly will not keep her God-King's power.

On the contrary, it is this state of being reborn but becoming immature that requires feigning death and handing over one's position.

But she couldn't understand where Ryoko had gotten such a precious treasure.

This thing clearly doesn't exist in the world, otherwise a deity would have tried and used it long ago.

She stared intently at Ryoko: "How do you possess such a rare item?"

Ryoko smiled slightly: "That's because of my personally chosen successor, Morikawa."

Her gaze fell on Morikawa Yu.

"Morikawa is the child I chose, and I've always liked him very much."

"I like him very much, whether it is his decisive personality or his kindness towards the weak. Moreover, he has achieved such great success in swordsmanship. He will definitely be even stronger after succeeding as the God Lord and will be able to preside over Tokyo and the Kanto region."

"But I didn't expect him to give me such a surprise by giving me this medicine."

In fact, she wanted to pass on the position and power of the god to Morikawa Yu, so that Morikawa Yu could become the arbitrator of Tokyo, in charge of the secret affairs of the Kanto region, and become the supreme god of a region.

Although Morikawa Yu had been declining the position, he did not disappoint her. In the end, he gave her an unexpected reward, allowing her body to return to its youthful state, extending her lifespan, and sparing her from death.

Yes, she was actually very afraid of dying.

She placed all her hopes on Morikawa Yu, expecting him to continue the legacy of the Kanto God, which barely suppressed her worries and fears.

She even once thought about being absurd in the last moments of her life, giving her body to Morikawa Yu, and enjoying the impulse of sexual intercourse that she hadn't felt for forty or fifty years.

When faced with the threat of death, all spiritual beings will have thoughts of escaping death, indulging in lust, and procreation.

However, Fei Yue's suspicion calmed her down and made her give up this somewhat immoral and shameful thought.

Regardless, she was a conservative person; otherwise, she wouldn't have remained chaste for forty or fifty years after separating from her husband, never having any contact with any men.

Her husband has been dead for twenty or thirty years, and she still hasn't found another lover.

All she wanted was to watch over her daughter and granddaughter and let them grow up well.

Moreover, now that her body has shrunk and she has even regained her virginity, she must cherish her body even more and not give it away casually.

Ryoko looked away.

"In short, I have a good eye, and I made the right choice in selecting him as my successor."

"It's just a pity that he's too much of a womanizer. He has too many girls around him, and he's also very disobedient. He doesn't want to take over my strength and position, and he even wants to work hard to become as strong as us."

"Sigh, this is really a difficult situation."

"But I think this is not bad either."

"After all, he didn't get much help from me, but he helped me so much. As his master, I can't be too harsh."

"And you, Lord Water Moon God? Your disciple was also handpicked and trained by you for so many years. You must be very satisfied and proud of him, right?"

Ryoko looked at the shrine maiden and smiled slightly.

Despite her appearance as a cute little girl with long, straight black hair and speaking in a very "Versailles" style, she exudes a mature and sophisticated aura, both adorable and elegant.

Chapter 639 Who doesn't like cute girls?

The priestess's expression wasn't very pleasant.

She stared at Ryoko, frowning, trying hard to suppress her displeasure.

Even so, she was still very unhappy.

Ryoko's sarcastic, Versailles-like tone made her feel like she had a lot of pent-up anger with nowhere to vent it.

She wanted to list some areas where Hanamiyuki was better than Morikawa Yu, but Hanamiyuki lost to Morikawa Yu several times in a row, and now she had been captured by Morikawa Yu, which made her, as her teacher, feel constrained and had to bow her head just now.

If she wants to compete, she can only focus on the two aspects of "sensible and obedient" and "cute and beautiful".

Although Hanamiyuki is very stubborn when facing outsiders, she is very obedient when facing her. Moreover, Hanamiyuki is very cute. Even before she grew up, she could be called a beauty. She will definitely be an absolute beauty when she grows up.

She hesitated, about to speak, when Ryoko interrupted her again.

"Speaking of which, Lord Shuiyue, you seem to have never been married, and there are no women around you. Could it be that, as the rumors say, you prefer girls?"

"Your Divine Child Rin, and the child you chose to inherit the position, Yuki, seem to have been raised by you personally and have never seen outsiders. Rumor has it that they are your forbidden offspring, and no one else is allowed to touch them, and only you can touch them. Could that really be true?"

"Do you see them as Mikamiko and her students, or as lovers?" Ryoko asked with a slight smile.

Although she spoke with a skeptical tone, Ryoko had no doubt about what she was saying.

Although the supreme deities help each other, they also guard against each other and spy on each other. This intelligence may not be entirely true, but it is generally accurate.
