Tokyo Gods Only Want Beautiful Priestesses

Lies! Soga Ai wasn't entirely indifferent inside, but she wasn't jealous. Instead, she was thinking about how the number of people in the shrine's backyard was increasing. There were antagonistic couples like Chiyo Kaguya, wicked woman couples like Tamamo-no-Mae and Hōhime, or fox and dog couples like Tamamo-no-Mae and Iizuna-maru.

The era of going it alone seems to be coming to an end. Although Suga Ai can form a trio of emotionless, obedient beauties with Narukami, increasing the number of her own cooperative combinations seems inevitable.

Now that things have come to this, being a best friend or sister is a plus, increasing your importance. It's not that I don't care about our past friendship, but I really need your help right now.

Ruthlessly ignoring Kuga Hikaru's pleas for help, Suga Ai was already thinking to herself: pink and black, white stockings with black stockings, plus the added bonus of best friend, her god would probably be obsessed with this combination for a while.

Don't have any expectations of a fanatic's bottom line. The little shrine maiden may seem aloof and detached, but she's a fanatic in the same vein as Ringo. Forget about being best friends; even if she were to have a daughter someday, it's probably not...

However, such a terrible thought could not be spoken aloud, since their own deity did not seem to like it.

After issuing a death notice to Kuga Hikaru, Jingu arrived at the stern of the ship, where a group of old monsters were drinking. When they saw Jingu, they greeted him warmly and tried to get him to drink with them.

"No, no, I want to go fishing."

There's a saying that goes, every angler dreams of a sea fishing trip.

If regular fishing is a test of skill and patience, then sea fishing is a tense and exciting tug-of-war of endurance. If an inexperienced angler is not skilled enough, a fish weighing over 100 pounds might even be pulled into the sea.

However, this was all easy for Jingu; he wanted to catch some deep-sea giants, the bigger the better.

Driven by the convection currents propelled by the shrine, the cruise ship appeared to be moving slowly, but in reality, it had already left the land and reached the boundless sea.

Casting the fishing hook, it sank continuously under the influence of an invisible force, sinking into the bottomless abyss.

Special thanks to Azur Lane for their swimsuit skin support, which made me understand swimsuits quite well.

Chapter 147 Sea Monster

"Can you do it?"

Sitting at the stern for ages, even Tamamo-no-Mae, who usually casts her line occasionally, caught several big fish, but Jingu still showed no sign of packing up. Come to think of it, did he really put bait on his line just now?

"What's the rush? If you want to fish, don't talk about these things. I can catch a whale shark or a humpback whale. What's the point of catching these fish and then releasing them?"

Jingu is a good friend of nature. How could he possibly eat such rare fish that are explicitly prohibited from being caught? If you're going to fish, fish for fish that no one has ever seen before. If you haven't seen them before, there can't be any regulations against catching them, so you can eat them however you want.

Today, he's going to sample these strange creatures from the deep sea.

As his fishing line sank deeper and deeper, Jingu searched the deepest part of the nearby sea for any interesting creatures, but none of them seemed very big or particularly interesting, which is why he hesitated to reel them in.

During his leisure time from fishing, Jingu would enjoy the sea breeze and look up at the distant horizon where the sea and sky met. The weather today was calm and peaceful, much like the doldrums of the equatorial region.

When the equator is mentioned, Jingu recalls a claim from some fantasy work: when crossing the equator, the wind direction and water flow suddenly reverse, making the equatorial water flow like a deep convection abyss, where a slight misstep could lead to shipwreck and loss of life.

As children, we were always full of curiosity because of our ignorance, but once we understood, we felt that the meaning was lost.

Even the shrine once suffered from thalassophobia. The bottomless darkness, the oppression and fear would instantly overwhelm a person's heart. But when his thoughts could pierce through the ocean, and everything was exposed, and the sea monsters that he once thought were terrifying became delicacies on his plate, how could he be afraid?

However, this also takes away a lot of the meaning; without the tension and excitement, it can become boring.

"Shrine! We're almost there, aren't you going to put me down yet?"

Iizuna Maru's calls echoed from the bow to the stern; she could already see the small island in the distance. As for how she knew it was their destination...

The girls who heard Iizuna Maru's voice peeked out and looked curiously at the island where they were on vacation. On the sea, a small island stood alone.

The island has vast beaches and numerous resort facilities, including some outrageous water parks, sandcastles built on the beach, and even wooden pirate ships.

There's always a feeling of instantly stepping into a fairy tale world.

Putting aside the question of how the shrine could have come up with such childlike facilities during its construction, at least for a summer vacation, this place is absolutely perfect.

Looking at it this way, although Jingu usually acts recklessly, and is very autocratic in his actions and even somewhat tyrannical and cruel, it all makes sense considering that he is only fourteen years old.

When you're young, you tend to act without considering the consequences. So, do they all have too many strange filters when it comes to Jingu? They always think he's either lewd or bad, but actually, Jingu seems to have a childlike and innocent side too.

Some girls felt remorse and guilt for their past prejudices against the shrine.

At that moment, the shrine maiden who had been fishing with her eyes closed finally opened them.

His big fish has arrived!

With a leap, he stood on the top of the cruise ship. Jingu raised his hand and lifted the rod, bending it to its limit. If Jingu hadn't helped stabilize its structure, the line would have broken and the rod would have snapped long ago.

In the abyss at the bottom of the sea, where the depths and distance from the shrine were unknown, a colossal creature was being dragged swiftly, gliding rapidly through the water.

As the cruise ship was about to dock, the shrine also dragged the giant fish out of the water, breaking through the huge waves and soaring through the sky with a somewhat beautiful figure. However, the girls who saw its shape clearly couldn't help but shudder.

Its body is nearly 100 meters long, slender and long, resembling a squid or a ribbonfish. Its tail is like a fish tail or a skirt, branching out into several strands. Its body is semi-transparent, revealing many of its bones and internal organs. A pair of long fins hang down on both sides of its body like arms.

The giant object plunged into the water, creating huge waves that destroyed much of the decorations and decorations on the beach.

"How about it? Isn't this fish big enough?"

Jingu casually tossed down his fishing rod. This was the largest and most peculiar marine creature he had ever found in the entire sea, a creature he was certain had never been seen before.

"It's big, but it feels like it's already dead?"

Tamamo-no-Mae remarked that the giant creature had died the moment it emerged from the water; its body was rapidly shriveling and losing moisture.

"Sigh, deep-sea creatures can't adapt to the pressure at the surface, so it's normal for them to die the moment they go out to sea."

After all, they are not mythical creatures like the Kraken. Since they are ordinary creatures, they must abide by the laws of physics. No matter how huge or terrifying they are as predators in the deep sea, once they adapt to the deep-sea environment, they are very likely to die when they go to shallow waters.

"Great, let's have this for dinner tonight."

Jingu jumped off the ship, dragging the unknown deep-sea monster toward the beach.

"Eat this? Jingu, are you really sure?"

Some people can't help but wonder, is this thing really edible?

"Don't worry, it's not poisonous. Even if it were, there's no need to be afraid. The meat looks quite good."

The shrine was right. Although this giant beast was a deep-sea creature, it was not actually that ferocious. Its skin and flesh were crystal clear, and its tail, which resembled a skirt, and its slender body gave it a somewhat beautiful appearance. If it hadn't died, it might have been a good choice to keep it in an aquarium.

On the beach, facing the scene of chaos caused by the huge waves, the shrine snapped its fingers, and countless human figures rose from the trees, sand, and sea, restoring the surroundings to their original state.

Most people didn't pay attention, thinking it was just some minor spell from the shikigami or the shrine. Only Narukami, who had witnessed it, understood that the shrine was making continuous progress silently.

From the initial, rudimentary, instinctive dragon form that formed when I first learned this move, it has condensed and solidified into a human form, and possesses considerable wisdom.

The master spends all his time eating, drinking, and sleeping with women, barely getting any proper sleep. So why has he made such great progress? Is sleeping with women the secret to his strength?

Swallowing their innermost thoughts, the group stepped onto the beach, where numerous humanoid figures formed from water or sand immediately came to guide them.

"Alright, we're already at the beach, don't you think it's strange to be dressed so formally? I've prepared everyone's swimsuits and everything else you need for the beach."

I don't know when, but the shrine has changed into beach shorts and Hawaiian-style printed shirts.

The girls exchanged glances, but the question in their eyes was the same: How did he know their size?

However, there's no point in dwelling on this, not to mention that most people are already used to this situation.

The important thing is summer! It's about vacation!

The girls opened their hearts and headed towards the changing room. After they had all changed, Jingu revealed a strange smile.

Oops, I stayed up too late last night and forgot to set a timer. That's why something felt off.

Chapter 148 Choosing a Swimsuit

"What...what are all these?!"

As the bird stared at the piece of cloth in its hand, which was several centimeters wide, its face turned so red it looked like it was about to bleed.

Although I had mentally prepared myself for the swimsuit, and even considered bringing one in advance, Jingu said he would prepare one, but I never expected it to be like this.

Each person has a private changing room, which avoids the awkwardness of changing clothes and eliminates the need to choose swimsuits with others. The swimsuits in the changing room are so numerous and varied that it's overwhelming.

But what kind of swimsuits are these?!

Putting down the swimsuit that was just a few pieces of cloth and thread in her hand, Asuka picked up another swimsuit, looking puzzled.

With so many messy lines, how am I supposed to wear this? What's the point of all these lines? Are they just there to constrict the skin? And why is this school swimsuit so small? Shouldn't it usually be loose?

Asuka considered her body shape. If she forced herself to wear this swimsuit, it would be no different from wearing a tight-fitting bodysuit without skin showing. Although it would not show any skin, it would be better not to wear it at all. What happened to the swimsuit that was supposed to be provided according to body shape?

Of course, Asuka also noticed that there were quite a few more conservative swimsuits here, such as those with gauze skirts, as well as more normal swimsuits.

But at this point, Asuka was truly conflicted. Should she choose to go out in such a conservative or ordinary swimsuit because of her sense of shame?

Or should she indulge her girlish heart and the shrine's preferences by wearing something more unique when going out?

If it were just two people, they could wear them out even if they were a little shy, but this time, with so many people, wearing such strange swimsuits out, wouldn't that be making their intentions crystal clear?

After much deliberation, Asuka opted for a compromise, changing into a swimsuit that, while made of minimal fabric and held together by just a few threads, featured a sheer skirt overcoat.

Stepping out of the changing room, she found that some people had already started playing on the beach. However, Asuka wasn't in a hurry to go to the beach. She wanted to see Jingu first and hear his opinion on her swimsuit.

After looking around but not seeing any sign of the shrine, Asuka had no choice but to give up the idea. On her way to the beach, she passed a changing room and vaguely heard voices coming from inside.

"You... your change... is too strange... don't... awful..."

I couldn't quite make out what I was hearing, but it sounded like... Tamamo-no-Mae, right? She was probably complaining about how weird her swimsuit looked, wasn't she?

Without thinking much, a sea breeze blew by, and Fei Niao wrapped her coat tighter and left. The changing room seemed to be structurally unstable, as it swayed slightly in the sea breeze.

On the beach, Miss Hina was sitting at a smoothie stall, eating the smoothie in her hands like a mascot. The school swimsuit that looked like a tight-fitting suit fit her perfectly.

Haru and Hikari Hanayama didn't seem to have the same worries and struggles as Asuka. They both wore relatively normal, high-coverage V-neck swimsuits. However, both of them had figures that were no less than Asuka's, plus the...

There is definitely something wrong with her body measurements.

Even though there's nothing particularly special about it, the way the swimsuit constricts still feels a bit strange.

However, compared to the others around them, they can be considered very conservative.

Bao Ji makes no attempt to hide her thoughts; her swimsuit consists of two straps that stretch from her shoulders to her cleavage. If she weren't so slender, it wouldn't cover anything at all.

Momiji and Ushi-Gozen were wearing diagonal-strap swimsuits, which wouldn't have been a problem in itself, but given their physiques and builds, even loose-fitting clothes couldn't hide them, so how could a few tight swimsuits possibly conceal them?

Ibuki's figure was inferior to the two, but she made a very careful selection that fit her perfectly, with a neck strap and leg ring, and a cleverly designed cutout on the bottom of the swimsuit.

They were arguing about hitting a watermelon, seemingly discussing who should be the one to be hit.
