In just a short while, Jingu brought Soga Ai back to the shrine.
To their surprise, the shrine was surprisingly crowded at that time.
The three women, Kayamain Haru, Kuga Hikaru, and Tamamo-no-Mae, were all at the shrine at the same time, seemingly waiting for the two shrine maidens to return.
"Finally back? Why don't you share what happened so we can all have a laugh?"
Tamamo-no-Mae seemed a bit casual today, as if she had just drunk quite a bit of alcohol. She was so hot that she even left a few buttons undone, but apart from her beautiful collarbone, nothing else was exposed.
Haruhiko Hanayama and Hikaru Kuga also looked curious. Hikaru Kuga, who was usually the most active, was now dressed in pajamas and was as quiet as if a fire had been extinguished.
Suga Ai got down from Jingu's arms. She was already a little jealous because of Jingu's words, and now that she had returned and saw this scene, the jealousy in her heart that had not completely dissipated surged up again.
After looking at it, Su Woai then made a bold move.
In front of the three women, he turned to the side and kissed Jingu, then whispered in her ear.
"Ai, go wash up first. Don't forget to show Ai Master's 'amazing' tonight~"
"Ahem." Jingu coughed subtly twice. Suga Ai's voice might not be heard by Hanayamain Haru and Kuga Kou, but Tamamo-no-Mae, that fox, definitely heard it clearly.
However, this was probably the effect Su Woai wanted. After biting the ear, she went to wash up without looking back.
Ignoring Tamamo-no-Mae's amused gaze, Jingu sat up straight and said, "Since that's the case, let me tell you what exactly happened. Hanayama-in Haru, prepare paper and pen."
"Huh? Why?" Hanayama Haru, who was called out, looked completely bewildered.
"Make a written record and then you can relay it to the Takatsukasa family tomorrow. I'm too lazy to explain it to that Takatsukasa Masato guy again."
“Why me?”
"Besides you being a corporate slave, who among us here has work experience?"
Kuga Hikaru, Tamamo-no-Mae, and the Shrine Maiden all turned their gazes toward them simultaneously.
Damn it! Are you trying to bully working people?!
Chapter 36 The Other Gods
"What a nice day."
Tokyo, which narrowly escaped a natural disaster, is bathed in clear blue skies and gentle sunshine today.
The television was broadcasting reports on the damage from last night, and the host, along with several elderly experts, was giving a reasoned analysis of last night's hurricane, praising Tokyo's good fortune as an unrepeatable miracle.
However, these people from Yingzhou have always spoken in such a childish and immature way.
Jingu glanced at the TV for a few moments, then lost interest and turned to unpack the new package.
These are all products that the shrine purchased online during its leisure time, adding a lot of things to the shrine and making it truly feel like a place where people live.
Originally, they had nothing and were extremely rudimentary. Apart from daily necessities, the shrine mostly bought various entertainment items.
From mobile phones to consoles and various game consoles, he has also bought a lot of otaku gadgets online. He is ready to carefully examine them and see what the aesthetics of this world are like.
Thinking about the things that required Hanayama-in Haru's help to buy, Jingu suddenly felt uneasy about her current physical condition; it was as if she had completely exposed her own perversions.
Aside from these, the biggest change in the shrine is a sturdy money tree in the courtyard. It's not the kind of tree that supposedly bears money, but a proper money banyan.
With its lush foliage, it should provide plenty of shade in the yard when summer arrives.
Now that both tasks in the system have been completed, Jingu opened the task panel.
[The Mission – The First Step Forward]
[Your reputation has, for the time being, resounded throughout the mystical world of Tokyo. Though it is a notorious one, your acts of destruction against the Soga clan and your actions in bringing down natural disasters are causing some to consider whether you should be categorized as an evil god.]
[Task status: Completed]
[Reward: Money Tree x1]
Another task about Su Woai was completed last night, while this one only showed as completed after fermenting overnight.
As for this money tree, it's not the system trying to trick the Divine Palace. Although it can't directly grow money like you might imagine, it does have its own unique features.
It has no use to the shrine, but for ordinary people, as long as they worship under the money tree, the tree will increase their wealth at the expense of the worshipper's other fortunes.
Simply put, luck in other areas will decline, but wealth will increase. It's a matter of giving and receiving, and you can't create something out of nothing.
However, this conversion process will inevitably involve some losses and cuts, after all, a money tree can't work for free.
Overall, it's pretty useless.
Then, as is customary, the system generated a new task for the shrine after completing the current task.
[Task - One isn't enough?]
【Although you already possess a perfect shrine maiden, how can a god only have one? What? You say two will do? How short-sighted! As a god, a shrine maiden should at least not repeat on a monthly cycle, right?】
[Note: This is a long-term task; rewards will be given upon completion each time.]
[Quest Requirement: Obtain a priestess]
[Reward: Determined based on the shrine maiden's aptitude]
This task is exactly what I'm looking forward to!
When the shrine saw the text in the mission description, it instantly made its blood boil.
Teng clenched his fist. "Well said! He can't even gather a reinforced platoon of priestesses; what kind of god is he?"
Has he betrayed his reputation as a hedonist? Has he fulfilled the expectations of those beautiful young girls?
In order to become stronger, the search for a new priestess is now urgent!
This is not some self-indulgent pleasure, but a serious matter of becoming stronger.
After calming her excited emotions, Jingu continued to look at the new tasks.
[Mission: I'm really a good person!]
You've successfully made your name known throughout Tokyo, but it's clear that many people misunderstand you. The impressions of you being womanizing, moody, and petty are prevalent. Prove yourself to be a genuinely good person and dispel their prejudices.
[Task Requirement: Use a good name to wash away a bad name]
[Reward: Jade Branch of Penglai]
Jingu frowned at this task. This kind of task to boost his reputation was the most troublesome. He couldn't very well find a newspaper to defend him, could he?
Moreover, this reward... the Hourai Jade Branch Shrine knows what it is. It was a treasure that had never been heard of before, one of the difficult problems that Princess Taketori Kaguya had posed to suitors.
But what exactly this thing is used for, the shrine doesn't know either. For now, it puts this task at the lowest priority and will see if there's an opportunity to complete it later.
[Task - I Have Few Friends]
[Spending your days with fox spirits and indulging in lust, how can you achieve anything great? As a deity, you don't even have a single divine friend. How can you avoid being ganged up on when you're attacked? Quickly go and form your own clique!]
[Task Requirements: Befriend three or more deities]
[Reward: A beautiful young man]
Huh? What does it mean to be obsessed with women? What's wrong with being obsessed with women?
Didn't you just say one wasn't enough? Why are you suddenly criticizing him for being obsessed with women?
This reward
Jingu gasped. "You'd better have a skill that increases charm." This ambiguous statement was truly frightening to Jingu.
But how is he going to complete this task? Jingu feels like he's forgotten something. When was it? And where was the opportunity for this task supposed to arise?
Just as Jingu was racking his brains to recall memories that didn't even exist, his phone rang.
"Lord Jingu, due to the unforeseen events last night, the Tokyo Gods' Gathering is scheduled to be moved forward to noon today. I've come to remind you of this."
As soon as the call connected, Hanayama Haru's voice came through urgently, accompanied by various other noises.
"Huh? What?"
"Hmm? Didn't Lady Tamamo-no-Mae convey this to you? I clearly told her last time."
"Oh!" Jingu instantly remembered that it was the day Suga came back from playing with snakes with him.
Playing with snakes was so exciting that I have no recollection of it at all.
What a coincidence! He couldn't wait to meet the other gods in Tokyo, and how to make friends with them was not on his mind for the time being.
"So, where should we book? When will we arrive?"
"Ah..." Another flurry of activity came from Hanayama Haru's side, and after a while, she continued speaking.
"Lord Jingu, please don't worry, I'll drive over to pick you up in a bit."
"alright."
Before hanging up the phone, I could still hear the chaotic sounds coming from Hanayama Haru's end, as if something had gone wrong.
Other gods
What will it be like? Since I transmigrated here, I haven't encountered a single god.
I'm really looking forward to it! There should be a lot of interesting things to happen, right?
Chapter 37 Goodbye
About half an hour later, Kazan-in Haru finally arrived late.
"Is only Lord Jingu going? What about Ai?"
Kayama Inshun seemed somewhat surprised as he opened the car door and picked up Jingu.
"You love her, but you still have to go to school. What's the problem?"
"There's no problem."
Haruhiko Hanayama started the car and drove into Tokyo's traffic, talking as he drove.
"However, Lord Jingu, you should be careful. Although I don't know why it's suddenly so much earlier, it must be related to the commotion last night."
"So the chaos on the phone just now was because of this?" Jingu asked casually.
"I guess so, since most people in the industry know that what happened last night was definitely your doing," Hanayama Haru said with a wry smile.
"They didn't dare to go directly to her, nor did they dare to touch Xiao Ai, so they could only come to me, the easy target."
