Tokyo Gods Only Want Beautiful Priestesses

"Hey? Isn't there that one too? That summer must-do... test of courage!"

Having only scratched the surface, the bird, already somewhat dizzy and unable to think clearly, said in a daze.

"Yes, a test of courage is definitely something to do in the summer. Apart from the beach, I haven't really investigated or cleaned up the rest of this island, but the birds..."

Jingu nodded at first; under normal circumstances, he would have approved of the courage-testing contest proposal, but...

"The people present

Some of them are either monsters, gods, or even the undead and priestesses. Even if there really are ghosts on this island, are they testing our courage or itss?

Ultimately, if any ordinary person were to come to this island at this time and join their dinner party, they would probably only end up being so scared that they would swim back to Tokyo overnight.

Jingu is very self-aware about who is the more terrifying party.

After the absurd banquet ended, back at the summer inn prepared by the shrine, the monsters and gods, still not done playing, dragged the shrine into a pillow fight. The shrine never refused such a game.

The other girls, who had been playing all day and had drunk quite a bit of alcohol, decided to go back to their rooms to sleep, feeling dizzy. They quickly fell into a deep sleep thanks to the effects of the alcohol.

I don't know how much time passed, but it was probably late at night when Asuka was awakened by a faint sound. Her brain, which was numbed by alcohol, was still a little groggy, and her stomach was also a little uncomfortable. It was probably because the deep-sea monster sashimi at the shrine that night was too devilish.

But the faint sounds outside the window kept her from falling asleep. They sounded like waves, and also faintly like the distant, ethereal song of a whale. Despite her headache and stomach discomfort, the curious bird staggered to the window.

Opening the window, the salty sea breeze blew in, making Asuka a little more awake and easing her stomach. The lights in the other rooms of the hotel were off, so Jingu and the others were probably asleep.

Only starlight shone faintly between heaven and earth. The sea rose and fell as if breathing. Under the faint starlight, birds could see the ever-rising tide, like a red tide, the red seawater like fresh blood.

On the distant sea, a huge dark shadow seemed to be churning on the surface, making a call that sounded like a whale's song.

Is it a whale?

The birds couldn't see clearly, but they could spot a figure on the shore, slender and seemingly about to be swept away by the crimson waves, moving along the coast.

As the tide rises and falls, a cave on the beach is revealed. During high tide, the cave is submerged by seawater, while during low tide, a passageway is left for people to enter.

Asuka watched the figure head towards the cave. When she arrived, it was low tide, and instead of going in, the figure turned back.

She's looking at me?!

Although she couldn't see the other person's face or what she was doing, Asuka had this feeling that she was being looked at, even though they were so far apart.

And this person is definitely not anyone I know! Nor is they anyone from this trip! There's now an outsider on this island!

A crimson wave crashed down, and the figure vanished as if it had fallen into a cave. But before disappearing, the bird saw lip movements that were neither visible nor decipherable; the figure was saying—Come find me.

An indescribable fear and panic instantly overwhelmed Fei Niao, causing her to scream instinctively.

"what--!!!"

He sprang up from the bed, drenched in sweat, the sheets soaked with cold sweat. He gasped for breath, his hands on his chest, the pounding of his heart clearly audible through the thick layer of fat.

"What's wrong, Asuka?"

Upon hearing the scream, Jingu, who appeared immediately, pushed open the door. Seeing that familiar and reassuring figure, Asuka felt a lump in her throat.

"Okay, okay, are you alright? What happened?"

Sitting on the edge of the bed, Jingu pulled the girl into his arms and comforted her. Outside the door, the lights were bright, and the faint sounds of girls playing around could be heard, indicating that the pillow fight was still going on.

"It's nothing, just a nightmare."

As Feiniao gradually calmed down, she wiped the corner of her eye and belatedly realized that she was a little embarrassed for almost being scared to tears by a nightmare.

"It's good that you're alright. Nightmares must be terrifying."

He gently stroked the girl's back, comforting her and making sure she was alright before leaving.

The bird exhaled and looked out the window. The starlight was dim, and the sea was pitch black under the gloomy sky.

It was just a dream.

If the daytime is a bit risqué, then the nighttime needs something different to make it complete.

Chapter 151 Underwater Secrets

"Should we go inside and investigate?"

The next day, the group, who had been drinking heavily the night before, didn't get up until noon, and Narukami was assigned a special mission by his master.

"Hmm, I'm a little concerned. Since Asuka had a nightmare related to that place, let's go investigate and make sure there are no problems."

The mud and sand under his feet were still a little damp. After the tide receded, sand crabs crawled out of the sand pits and spat out sand. They didn't hide from the shrine and their small bodies crawled around his feet.

Although it is called a cave, it is actually a hidden world inside. It is empty and empty, except for the rocks and a small lake-like spring. Because there is no flowing water, the spring water is clear and pure.

"There's really nothing special about it."

Narukami examined the area carefully and found no other traces, only the marks left on the rocks from years of erosion by the sea. The only remaining life was a few small fish and shrimp.

Jingu's gaze was always fixed on Narukami's shapely curves. Her deep-V high-cut swimsuit revealed the delicate lines of her abdominal cleavage, and a little bit of flesh squeezed out from the inner thighs. From behind, most of her snow-white skin was exposed to the air.

"Don't rush, we haven't even gone down to check what's below the spring yet, have we?"

Jingu kicked a stone down into the water and submerged, indicating that he wanted to dive down and explore the underwater situation.

"Hmm? But the water here should lead directly to the surface of the sea, right? There shouldn't be anything here."

Despite some doubts, Narukami did as the shrine instructed. He raised his hand to tie up his long hair to prevent it from floating in the water and obstructing his vision, took a deep breath, tightened the zipper at his collar, and then, after drawing a graceful arc in the air, leaped into the water.

The spring itself isn't very large, but once you dive deeper, the space opens up dramatically, revealing the beautiful shallow sea scenery to Narukami: freely swimming fish and shrimp, and vast coral reefs.

Swimming in the water like a mermaid, arms outstretched forward, Narukami, not forgetting the task assigned by the shrine, scanned the area but found nothing strange.

There shouldn't be any problem.

As Narukami prepared to surface, she suddenly felt something slide into her swimsuit, and at the same time, she felt as if something was stroking her smooth armpit.

Hmm? Did a little fish get inside the swimsuit? How could that be?

As she stopped rising to the surface, preparing to thoroughly examine the inside of her swimsuit, the water, like tangible tentacles, wrapped around Narukami's wrists and ankles, binding her while simultaneously trying to peel back the fabric along the edges of her swimsuit to peek inside.

What is that? Narukami's face turned cold, as if he wanted to unleash a thunderous roar, break free of his restraints, and utterly destroy this strange underwater creature.

But a soft, floating sound made Narukami stop moving, letting the water seep into her swimsuit through the gaps and cling to her skin.

"It's me, don't move."

Jingu had somehow followed Narukami underwater, transforming into an invisible current of water that flowed around Narukami. And it was naturally Narukami who was causing trouble at this moment.

"Owner?"

In just a moment, Narukami understood that the investigation was merely an excuse; with his master's abilities, flying...

The bird had already thoroughly investigated this area when it first had its nightmare, so why would it need to dive down and investigate itself?

He was just tricking her into diving so he could do what he wanted.

"After going through all this trouble... it would be better if the master just told us directly."

"Because it loses its meaning if you say it out loud~"

"The underwater world is beautiful, isn't it?"

"By the way, what has that guy Jingu been doing during the day these past few days?"

Kaguya lay lazily on a large duck-shaped swimming ring, half of her body submerged in the seawater and the other half basking in the sun, chatting idly with Chiyo, who was also soaking in the water.

For the past two days, the shrine has forbidden the two of them from engaging in overly graphic and bloody battles, on the grounds that they cannot ruin the beautiful memories of their summer island getaway, even though blood and entrails are commonplace for them.

But Jingu doesn't want himself or anyone else to remember this island trip as a time of polluted, blood-red seas and offal soup made from entrails.

"How should I know? This guy seems to have gone to investigate something. He went early this morning and I haven't seen him yet."

Chiyo replied lazily, then added a defiant remark at the end.

"What? Haven't played with you for two days, and now you're itchy and need to stop the itch? You're such a jerk."

Chiyo's words came from the bottom of her heart. Kaguya is such a jerk. She likes to tease and provoke others for no reason. But when Jingu gets serious, she tries to avoid it. In the end, she gets beaten to a pulp, but quickly recovers and continues to mock and provoke Jingu.

Simply put, they're really annoying. Stubborn people like Chiyo only get one meal a night, while Kaguya gets driven to mental exhaustion by Jingu every time.

"Pooh!"

Kaguya would never admit that she did want to have some fun with the shrine maiden. The shrine maiden hadn't done anything to her last night, so she certainly wouldn't during the day, given how many people were on the beach.

Kaguya felt this was a good opportunity to cause trouble, but she couldn't find anyone from the shrine, and the night was quite dangerous, which made her very frustrated.

"Let's go play with that thing, it looks really interesting."

Kaguya set her sights on the water slide that the shrine had built, which encircled the entire island. Like a roller coaster, it was powered by water and looked incredibly exciting.

I paddled the swimming ring to the starting point of the slide. This thing was so absurd, just like in a game. It didn't require any human intervention or operation; you just had to sit on it and it would start.

"Who goes first, you or me?"

Chiyo asked a question, and Kaguya naturally chose to let Chiyo go first to test the authenticity of this thing.

"Tch, what a coward."

"I won't die, what's there to be afraid of?" Chiyo jumped up and sat down. The gushing water propelled her forward. Acceleration to 100 km/h was just a flick of her finger, and she disappeared into the water slide in an instant. Chiyo's screams echoed in the air.

It looked so exciting! Kaguya licked her lips and was about to sit down when she was suddenly picked up from behind.

"Play this? This isn't a game for one person..."

With a strange smile on his face, Jingu lifted Kaguya up, and Kaguya's heart skipped a beat.

This chapter contains 2101 words.

There are so few monthly passes... Does everyone have run out of them?

Chapter 152 The Thrilling Water Slide

"What? Are you unhappy to see me?"

Jingu's hands slipped under Kaguya's armpits and lifted her up. Her Japanese-style swimsuit, complete with a skirt and floral embellishments, concealed Kaguya's lack of confidence.

Jingu lowered his head and whispered in Kaguya's ear. The familiar yet unbearable feeling made Kaguya shudder instantly, and her whole body tensed up.
