I'm having fun in Tokyo

“I should rule over everything in this world, but there is no place for me here. Only this boundary between the present and the afterlife can give me a moment’s rest and allow me to leave this child’s body.”

The newly appeared "she" is an exceptionally beautiful young woman, so beautiful that she seems to belong to another world.

She should be a deity, but instead of the halo that a deity should have, she is surrounded by countless divine power marks, shining with a light as intense and dazzling as the sun.

As her figure separated from the original shrine maiden's body, the shrine maiden's body also began to move.

The original priestess looked somewhat bewildered.

As she left, the priestess's eyes finally regained their clarity.

The young goddess touched her forehead, took a deep breath, bowed slightly to her, and whispered, "Lord Amaterasu."

The girl who had just appeared did not look at her, but looked at Morikawa Yu, her gaze fixed on Morikawa Yu, full of an aura of determination.

"Amaterasu?" Morikawa Yu was stunned for a moment.

He stared at the beautiful, fair-haired, slender, and graceful young goddess before him, still somewhat bewildered: "You are... Amaterasu?"

Amaterasu was the supreme deity of the Age of Gods, the sun goddess, one of the three main gods, the elder sister of Tsukuyomi and Susanoo, and the only main god of Takamagahara whose whereabouts remained unknown until the end of the Age of Gods.

He had heard about the other person from Kannazuki Chiko before, but he never expected to meet her now, nor did he expect that she would be hiding inside Hime-sama's body.

"It's me, Father! You finally remembered my name! I'm so happy!"

The platinum-gold-haired girl smiled slightly at him, and the light of the divine power mark around her shone even brighter, as if the sun were showing its smiling face: "Now that you have remembered my identity, Father, you should also remember your own memories, right?"

Morikawa Yu remained silent for a moment.

Did he recall "his own memories"?

No, I don't feel it at all.

If he were to pretend to have memories, he could use his past powers to glimpse the scene at the beginning of the Age of Gods, but he had no desire to do so and could not understand why she believed he was her father, the Father God Izanagi.

But he gradually came to understand the girl's existence.

When he asked Kannazuki Chiko about the shrine maiden, she told him about the rumors surrounding the Ise Grand Shrine.

Among these rumors are speculations about the relationship between the shrine maiden and Amaterasu.

After the original Amaterasu disappeared with the divine weapon Ame-no-Habakiri and many other divine artifacts, the first priestess appeared with her shikigami and came to Ise, where she established the Ise Grand Shrine.

She possessed similar powers and strength to Amaterasu, and the Ise Grand Shrine she built enshrined Amaterasu Omikami.

Chapter 677 Father, You've Done All the Wrong Things

Furthermore, the original Inari deity listened to the words of the successive shrine maidens, so some people suspect that the shrine maidens were Amaterasu Omikami.

Otherwise, neither the royal princess nor the successive princesses of the highest god would be qualified to make Inari, who also holds the position of the highest god and is one of the gods of Takamagahara, obedient.

Kannazuki even suspected that all the previous shrine maidens were the same person, constantly being reborn in another's body. She was unsure whether that person was Amaterasu or the first shrine maiden.

He denied Kannazuki Chiko's speculation at the time because he could see people's determination with his eyes and could confirm that each priestess was a different person.

But he never expected that Amaterasu was not the first Princess Hime herself, nor was she the same person as the Shrine Maiden Chikako thought. But they must have been influenced by Amaterasu, otherwise they wouldn't have allowed Amaterasu to hide in their bodies.

However, there were still things he didn't understand.

Morikawa Yu looked at the young goddess, then at the red torii gate towering over the Sanzu River in the distance. His gaze seemed to penetrate the gate to the underworld and reach Izanami, the legendary ruler of the underworld who became so terrifying after death that she could scare away her husband.

"If you are Amaterasu, then why do you call her Mother?"

"Do you have a relationship with her?"

It's no wonder he asked that question, mainly because Amaterasu is supposed to be a deity created by her father, Izanagi, using his divine power when he returned from the afterlife to cleanse himself of impurities.

At her birth, her radiance shone brightly, covering all things in the world. Her status was extremely honorable, which pleased the father god Izanagi greatly. He bestowed upon her power and strength, enabling her to govern Takamagahara, the abode of the gods.

She is indeed the daughter of the father god Izanagi, but she has no relation to the mother god Izanami.

Now, when he hears her call the mother goddess Izanami "mother," he feels the same way he did when he first heard Susanoo-no-Mikoto make a fuss about going to the Land of the Dead to find his mother, the father god Izanagi.

Susanoo-no-Mikoto was a deity created solely by the father god Izanagi, and had no relation to the mother god Izanami.

But He also insisted on going to find the mother goddess Izanami.

The father god Izanagi was furious: "You weren't born of her, you were born of myself! Why are you still looking for her and calling her 'mother'?!"

Finally, unable to contain his anger, he banished Susanoo.

This led to the later events where Susanoo went to find his sister, Amaterasu Omikami, angered her, was banished to Izumo, saved the Izumo gods, and killed Orochi.

The young goddess smiled slightly: "Of course I should call her Mother."

“Father, have you forgotten? You and Mother were originally the same being, only they split into different versions of themselves. To us, you and she are actually the same person.”

“I call you Father, so naturally I call her Mother.”

Morikawa Yu frowned, which meant she accepted her explanation.

The main issue is that he wasn't her father, Izanagi, and therefore didn't feel anything about what she said.

He asked the young goddess, "Then why do you believe I am your father?"

He thought about it for a long time, but still couldn't understand why she was convinced he was her father.

“That’s because of this child’s power.” Amaterasu finally looked at the priestess beside her, a smile appearing on the beautiful girl’s face: “Father, you divided your most important earthly power into three parts and gave them to me and Tsukuyomi respectively.”

"The power I received was for the 'future,' and in the end, I was the one who possessed the 'future.'"

“At the end of the Age of Gods, I chose a princess to be my priestess and made a pact with her using the power of words, making her my vessel. I also shared my power and authority with her, giving her the power of the ‘future’ so that she could bear the cost of my weakening divinity.”

“She saw you reborn in the future, and I have been waiting for this day to come. Then I wanted to take you away and tell you about your identity.”

“But the monsters and sinners around you keep blocking me, and I can’t reveal my identity, so I can only slowly find an opportunity to bring you here, Father.”

"Thanks to this child for telling me that I would break up with you today, I was finally able to bring you here and tell you these things."

"Monsters? Sinners, you mean Ryoko and the others?" Morikawa Yu frowned deeply.

“Of course.” The young goddess nodded slightly, her eyes filled with disgust: “Father, those women around you are called demons, but they are actually monsters. They are just as terrifying as Mother. They only look like normal people because they can transform themselves into human form.”

"And those so-called gods, they are nothing but sinners and traitors who rebel against us and usurp our power and divine authority."

"Father, don't let them deceive you."

Morikawa Yu frowned, shook her head, and couldn't be bothered to discuss such a completely opposing stance with a deity like her.

Even if he really was her father, he truly loved Feiyue and the others.

In Feiyue's eyes, he is just himself, and she loved him very much and treated him very well when he was very weak.

In Ryoko's eyes, he was a genius, outstanding, and top-notch junior, only with a strange aesthetic sense and a bit greedy and lustful. But even so, she still cared for him in every way, and was just short of marrying him.

Even if he really is Amaterasu's father, he would not betray Hitsuki, Mitsuko, and Ryoko.

“Let’s not talk about that.” Morikawa Yu shook her head: “You mean I divided my worldly powers into three?”

The young goddess didn't care at all: "That's exactly what it means."

“Father, you originally possessed the most powerful abilities in the world, which allowed you to see into the past, observe the present, and foresee the future. And when these three abilities are combined, they can even form a new realm of past lives, opening the door between the world of the living and the world of the dead.”

“Back then, Father, you used these three powers to seal the gate between the underworld and the present world, creating the Thousand-Guiding Stone that sealed the path to the underworld.”

"Then you gave me the power to foresee the future, Tsukuyomi the power to access the past, and Susanoo the power to manifest all things in the present world, trying to completely prevent Mother from returning in this way."

"Tsukuyomi was killed by one of those monsters, and her power was taken away. Susanoo was the same; her power ended up in the hands of those sinners."

"But it's better now."

“Father, you have returned and taken back the power you gave to Tsukuyomi from the monster that killed her. I also helped you plot to obtain the Shadow of Power from that sinner, which has reduced some obstacles.”

The young goddess smiled.

"Father, to make things easier for us when we see Mother later, I made a special trip to Songjiang to move the Thousand-Point Stone and hide it. When you open the Gate of the Underworld, Mother can directly cross the Gate of the Underworld and the Road of the Underworld and return to the present world."

"The Songjiang region?" Morikawa Yu paused for a moment, then asked, "You mean the Songjiang region?"

He certainly knew about the Songjiang region, after all, one of the local deities he greatly admired, the Mizuki Rin deity, was the local deity of the Songjiang region in the land of Izumo.

Moreover, he first met the other party because the other party was injured, and the shrine maiden sent the other party to the Karasu Shrine of the Karasu Shrine to recuperate.

Then Maizuru came over, intending to take the other person back to the priestess, but instead he captured her and trapped her beside him.

Hearing the young goddess say this now, he immediately remembered that the goddess Mizuki Rin was injured and that she had sent her to the goddess Raven Feather.

"So, you were the one who injured the Water Moon Rin God back then, and you sent the Water Moon Rin God from Songjiang to the Crow Feather God so that it would be easier for you to move the Thousand-Tier Stone?"

The young goddess shook her head: "That's not the case."

"But Father, you are right about one thing. I did send her to that sinner's shrine to make it easier for me to move the Thousand-Pulse Stone."

"As for her injury, it was indeed caused by the demonic energy tide triggered by that monster named Yamata. I told another sinner to send her to the Karasu Shrine, so that she could recuperate and also attract your attention, and she did so."

"I also had the opportunity to move that broken stone."

"Back then, it was because you, Father, sealed the gate between the underworld and the present world and blocked the path to the underworld with the Thousand-Pulse Stone that Mother was unable to return and could only remain in the underworld."

"And this is also the reason why our Age of Gods perished."

She looked at Morikawa Yu, her eyes no longer concealing the resentment and hatred in them.

"It's all your fault, Father, for abandoning Mother back then. If not for that, how could our era of gods have ended?"

“Father, you have done many bad things, now it’s time for you to pay the price.”

"Hurry and use your power to open the gates of the underworld and welcome back Mother. She has waited for you for too long and hated you for too long. Father, you must apologize to her properly and appease her anger. Once she has transformed this world into a part of the afterlife, we can bring the Age of Gods back."

Morikawa Yu frowned and emphasized again, "I am not your father."

While admitting that he is the reincarnation of a powerful god is indeed somewhat appealing, he would not admit that he is someone else, as that would make him question his own life.

The young goddess shook her head: "No, you are of course my father! I have already tasted it, and your blood does indeed have the same divine power as mine."

“I am a part of your body, Father. My divine blood is the same as your blood.”

“You must be my father.”

The girl paused suddenly, then smiled at Morikawa Yu: "Father, you must be afraid of Mother, so you don't want to acknowledge your identity or let Mother come back, right?"

"But Father, your soul is now able to accept Mother, so why are you still so afraid of her?"

"Father, before you exhausted your power and authority, causing yourself to dissipate, wasn't it all so that one day you could be reborn, so that your soul could become like hers, and so that she could once again become the stunningly beautiful woman in your eyes, surpassing all things?"

"When you see her again, she will still be the same beautiful woman. Why should you be afraid of her?"

Morikawa Yu's heart sank.

Although he didn't want to admit Amaterasu's words, his aesthetic sense was indeed different from that of ordinary people.

For example, the Demon of the Age of Gods.

In the eyes of ordinary people, demons, gods, and even the highest god, the original forms of the demons of the Age of Gods are extremely terrifying and incomprehensible beings, but in his eyes, they are all stunningly beautiful girls.

"But there's something I don't understand." The young goddess looked at him and finally frowned.

"Father, you should have remembered your identity after I said those things to you just now. Why haven't you remembered who I am yet?"

She lowered her head, looking at him with suspicion.

"Father, your blood doesn't taste right either; it has all sorts of strange smells."

She gently licked her tongue, the pink tip brushing against her lips, where a trace of color could still be seen on her translucent pink lips.

"Although your blood does taste the same as mine, Father, it has a very strange feeling, as if it is different from mine."

Morikawa Yu thought for a moment.

Although he wasn't quite sure, he still tentatively asked, "I have the first blood of Fei Yue in my body. After our wedding, I slept with her and obtained her first blood, which changed my physique."

Amaterasu shook her head: "No, it's not because of that."

"The original blood of those monsters can indeed change a person's body, but no matter what changes occur, they will not change the connection between us divine blood relatives."

"I feel that the connection between you and me is a bit strange... Just now, when I bit your finger, I also felt that the blood tasted a bit off."

Chapter 678 Changes in the Body

She flew closer to Morikawa Yu and looked down at his face: "Father, what exactly has changed in your body?"

Morikawa Yu was also a little puzzled.

After hearing Amaterasu's words, he also felt that he might be her father, but he found it difficult to understand why.
