After all, no matter how perfect or ingenious a contract is, both parties need to have sufficient strength to maintain it; otherwise, no matter how well the contract is written, it is just a piece of paper.

The purpose of making that contract was simply to provide evidence of the matter and to confirm the sincerity of both parties.

Hiizuki and Mitsuko exchanged a glance and shook their heads.

They wanted to directly help Morikawa Yu seize the source of demonic power, but they didn't care if Morikawa Yu and Ryoko used medicine to exchange for the source of demonic power.

As long as Morikawa Yu gets the source of demonic power, and neither he nor they suffer any loss, that's fine.

The priestess nodded.

She raised her hand, summoned her Goshuincho (a type of imperial seal), took out a booklet from the Goshuincho's space, and pushed it toward Morikawa Yu and Yoshiko.

"This is the method I found to refine the demonic power of Orochi, who only has a demonic body. Orochi's situation is special, and only this method can refine her demonic power."

Morikawa Yu looked at the pages that were floating in front of him, used the wind to stop them, and glanced at them briefly.

Ryoko glanced at the booklet and nodded to Morikawa Yu.

Morikawa Yu was relieved and used his spatial power to store the pages into the Goshuincho space, placing it in the other place where treasures were stored.

He looked at the priestess, raised his hand, and took out a silver box.

He wasn't idle either, while Ryoko and the shrine maiden were making their pact.

He redeemed an enhanced shrinking potion from the system store and then sealed off his Goshuincho space, severing its connection with the outside world.

After doing all this, he threw the silver box at the priestess.

The priestess waved her hand, releasing her divine power to catch the silver box, bring it to her side, and open it.

Inside the box was only a small silver capsule.

She looked at the silver capsule in the box with a complicated expression.

This tiny capsule was able to make Ryoko look so young again, giving her a chance to be reborn.

She paused for a moment, closed the box, and held it in her hand.

"The contract has been made. Please do as you please. The seal is located beneath the Oki Islands. In addition to this seal, there is another seal beneath my Izumo Taisha Shrine."

"You guys take the seal below the archipelago first. I'll leave for a bit and come back later to take the seal inside the shrine with you."

Morikawa Yu was stunned for a moment.

He frowned as he looked at the priestess.

What does it mean to say, "I'll leave for a bit and come back later to retrieve the seal from the shrine with you"?

Was she planning to hide away and take the medicine by herself?

Wouldn't that mean we wouldn't get to see anything exciting or stimulating... oh no, I mean we wouldn't get to see her genuine emotions?

How can that work?

Morikawa Yu shook his head inwardly, suddenly realizing that Ryoko next to him was just as regrettable as he was.

He and Ryoko exchanged a glance.

The two immediately understood each other's thoughts.

Morikawa Yu is an incorrigible otaku and wants to witness the precious moment when the shrine maiden transforms into a little girl.

Ryoko simply hoped that the shrine maiden would suffer the same accident as she had, so that she wouldn't be the only one who ended up in an undignified state after taking the drug.

Is there any way to get the priestess to take the medicine directly?

Ryoko thought for a moment, then stared at the priestess with an expression that seemed to be waiting to see her make a fool of herself: "Lord Mizuki, judging from your expression, you're planning to save the medicine for later?"

The priestess nodded: "Of course."

"If taking the medicine would turn me into this state, then of course I need to find a secluded place to take it, otherwise it would be very dangerous."

Ryoko: "Danger? How could it be dangerous? Taking the medicine won't weaken your divine power."

"Moreover, the effects of this medicine only last for a very short time."

"If you don't take it soon, it will become useless and turn into ordinary medicine."

The shrine maiden paused, staring intently at Ryoko.

However, Ryoko genuinely wanted to see her make a fool of herself. Since the shrine maiden had been making things difficult for Morikawa Yu and Hiizuki, she also wanted to vent Morikawa Yu's anger by making the shrine maiden publicly transform into a little girl and embarrass her.

So her current look of waiting to see the joke isn't an act, but a genuine expression of her feelings.

The shrine maiden couldn't discern anything amiss from Ryoko's expression, nor could she detect anything wrong from Morikawa Yu's expression either.

The shrine maiden frowned: "Lord Ryoko, you're not lying to me? It really wants to eat it soon?"

“Of course.” Ryoko nodded: “If you don’t eat it now, it will become useless soon, and it might already be useless now.”

"It's fine if you don't believe me."

"Anyway, we've already given you the medicine, and our contract is complete. Even if the medicine in your hands becomes ineffective, it has nothing to do with us. Believe it or not."

Liangzi spoke softly, then stopped.

She could have used a more dangerous and sensational method to trick the priestess into taking the medicine, but that would have been too obvious and the priestess would have seen through it. It would have been better to use a few words to make the priestess worry about the truth of her words.

The priestess might soon become suspicious and take the medicine.

The priestess gritted her teeth.

She wanted to gamble with Ryoko on how incredibly precious the medicine was, but Ryoko was just lying to her, wanting her to take the medicine directly instead of researching it, afraid that she would waste its potency.

But she didn't dare to gamble.

Judging from how readily Morikawa Yu gave her the medicine and promised to continue giving it to her in the future, without showing any reluctance, the value of this medicine was probably not as high as she had expected; it was simply extremely precious to them, the highest-ranking deities.

She had no complaints about this, after all, the value of things is relative.

This medicine is not precious to Morikawa Yu.

In fact, Orochi's demonic power was not precious to her. Even if she refined Orochi's demonic power, it would not prolong her lifespan, so she naturally did not need Orochi's demonic power.

She just wanted to give Hanamiyuki a gift before she died.

But if she didn't have to die, she could have exchanged the gift she gave to Hanamiyuki for something else.

She even promised Morikawa Yu that the precious treasures she would use to exchange for medicine would not be precious to her, after all, she was the goddess of Izumo, the ruler of the land of Izumo for more than ten generations since the first goddess priestess.

Her collection is filled with all sorts of rare treasures. She would casually use rare treasures that ordinary strong people might not even get to see in several lifetimes to prop up a table without feeling any pain. She can easily take out all sorts of treasures.

In comparison, taking the medication directly is a more worthwhile option.

Anyway, there will be other opportunities to get the medicine in the future.

The priestess stopped thinking about it, grasped the silver box, took out the capsule pills from the box, and put them into her mouth.

Ryoko stared at the priestess, preparing to unleash her divine power domain.

If the priestess takes the medicine and stays put, she won't move either. If the priestess hides in her divine power domain and waits for the medicine to take effect, then she'll drag Morikawa Yu into the priestess's divine power domain with her and see the priestess turn into a little girl.

Morikawa Yuya looked at the shrine maiden with expectant eyes.

The shrine maiden frowned, finally noticing that Ryoko and Morikawa Yu's expressions were a bit off.

The expressions of Morikawa Yu and Ryoko waiting to see her make a fool of herself didn't seem to be mocking her for being too cautious with the medicine; rather, they were anticipating something else entirely.

She held the medicine in her mouth, hesitating whether to swallow it.

Suddenly, she felt the medicine in her mouth melt; the capsule transformed into a strange power that merged into her mouth and spread throughout her body.

Soon, intense pain spread throughout her body along with the force, accompanied by a tearing sensation as if her bones were melting and a dizzying, disorienting feeling.

She was both shocked and bewildered, and wanted to use the power of the God to control these forces.

However, what she didn't realize was that her appearance had also changed; her skin was constantly covered in sweat, which quickly soaked her clothes.

As wisps of pale golden sweat dissipated, her body continued to shrink, her clothes became loose and slid down.

When she came to her senses, she felt as if she had no clothes on her lower body.

Her outer robe hung loosely on her body, revealing her delicate shoulders, while her skirt and trousers slipped down naturally, exposing her fair thighs to the air.

She immediately realized what was happening and used her supernatural strength to grip her skirt and trousers tightly, her slender white fingers clutching her clothes.

Fortunately, they were high in the sky, and the surrounding area was at sea, where there was no human habitation. Moreover, they had divine power to conceal their figures, so even if there were people nearby, they would not be able to see them at all. Cameras and similar devices could not capture their images, so there was no need to worry about them being exposed.

But her predicament didn't end there.

Her body had shrunk, and more than just her outer robe and skirt had slipped down. Even her undergarments, which were underneath her skirt, almost slipped down, nearly exposing her completely.

Even though she realized what was happening and squeezed her knees together, using her thighs to hold her bra in place and prevent it from slipping down, it still slipped down from her lower abdomen and landed between her two fair thighs, with only the two straps resting on her sides.

This does not serve any purpose of covering up shame at all.

She held her clothes in one hand and lifted her skirt with the other.

Although the outer robe covered the skin above the knees, this posture only made it more suggestive.

She may look like an innocent little girl, but she exudes the aura of a mature woman.

Moreover, her panicked and bewildered expression, along with her soft and adorable face that transformed from a mature woman into a little girl, makes it difficult to describe her current appearance simply with the word "cute." She is absolutely adorable.

The priestess blushed and glared at Morikawa Yu.

Morikawa Haha coughed dryly.

He turned his face away: "I didn't see anything, Lord Water Moon."

However, he himself didn't have the confidence to say that.

The priestess gritted her teeth, staring at Morikawa Yu, feeling extremely ashamed and angry.

She had never had her body seen by a man before, but now she was almost seen naked by Morikawa Yu. No, this indecent state was even worse than being seen naked.

She even considered taking direct action against Morikawa Yu, making him pay the price for seeing her body.

However, with Hiizuki, Mitsuko, and Ryoko watching from the side, if she were to fight in such an indecent way, she would immediately become even more indecent, and might even be completely exposed.

She took a deep breath, turned around and hid behind Shenzhi, waved her hand to release her divine power domain, entered the domain, and prepared to change her clothes.

However, she didn't have any clothes that would suit her current appearance.

Her legs were still wrapped in her intimate clothing, and she dared not let go of them. Her snow-white, soft thighs and milky-white feet were all exposed to the air. If she went out like this, Morikawa Yu would see everything.

Finally, after searching through the Goshuincho space for a while, she found the kimono that Hanami Yuki had worn before, which she had kept.

However, the kimono was still a bit too big, and it was a little tight in the chest area.

It's very difficult to find clothes that fit in a short time unless they're custom-made in advance.

I don't know how Ryoko handled such a troublesome matter back then.

Suddenly, the priestess realized what was happening.

Could it be that Ryoko's expression just now suggested that she had already had such an unseemly experience, and therefore wanted to drag her down with her so she could experience it too?

Damn it, Lord Ryoko, you've gone too far!

The priestess felt embarrassed and annoyed, especially since Morikawa Yu had been present earlier.

She had never had her body seen by a man before, and suddenly she was seen in such an indecent state. Although she was wearing clothes, what difference was there between her and not wearing any clothes at all?

Finally, after a moment of wild thoughts, the priestess calmed down.

She tried hard not to think about her embarrassing and undignified appearance just now, nor to think about how Ryoko and Morikawa Yu would look at her when she got back, nor to think about how Hanami Yuki, Mizuki Rin, that idiot Maizuru, and the Sea God would react when they saw her.

She tried to focus on feeling the changes in her body.

The effects of this medicine are somewhat strange, but its effects are also quite obvious.

She felt an overwhelming surge of energy within her, as if she had returned to her childhood, her body rejuvenated.

Morikawa Yu and Ryoko did not lie to her.

She did indeed regain her youth and extend her lifespan through this medicine, and she no longer had to worry about her life coming to an end or her impending death.

She can continue to govern Izumo, perpetuate the legacy of the priestess, and continue to stay with Mizuki Rin, Hanami Yuki, and Maizuru, keeping them by her side and living with them.

She looked a little embarrassed, still wearing Hanamiyuki's old kimono, which was very ill-fitting and could easily expose her.

However, if she finishes dealing with matters in the Oki Islands and teleports directly back to Izumo Taisha, there will be no risk of her exposing herself.

There are no men in Izumo Taisha, only the shrine maidens who serve her.

Should we go back now?
