The villainous second young lady becomes a god in a bizarre Tokyo.

Even if the father and grandfather came at the same time, they would be helpless in the face of such an old god.

She didn't understand where Tamamo-no-Mae got her confidence from.

Although, in hindsight, this confidence was indeed justified.

Tamamo-no-Mae, the mistress of Mount Natsuhiko, is indeed incomparably powerful.

It can be said that as long as a family with a strong foundation does not activate the divinity within the family, the Lord of Xiahuo Mountain is probably the number one person in the A-level category at present.

They have even stepped halfway into the realm of God.

That abundant divine power, and the ability to descend into the statue through Tamamo-no-Mae's "prayer" with the aid of consciousness, made it in some ways no different from a deity.

If it weren't for the lack of the [divine artifact]...

Both Kamishiro Himeko believed that the other was a true god.

However, this is not the norm. According to the timeline, all the gods in this world should be in a long slumber.

The days of divine slumber are far from over.

It is impossible for any deity to awaken from this; if they did, the loss of power would be extremely severe, and the deity would be unable to accept such a loss.

All of this stems from the secrets of the royal family.

Even top organizations and conglomerates don't have a history as long as the royal family, and they don't know as much information as she does.

After all, in most people's eyes...

Because of her two incompetent brothers and her exceptional talent, she has practically secured the position of heir to the throne.

Seemingly influenced by Tamamo-no-Mae's gaze, Kamishiro-hime also looked with longing at the Lord of Mount Natsuhime, who was displaying his immense power.

He murmured to himself.

"If only I had such power."

"Revitalizing the royal family is a piece of cake."

"But……"

"hiss---"

Suddenly.

Kamishiro Himeko frowned, pressing her right hand to her chest and pinching the skin around her tightly. A piercing pain surged from there like a tidal wave.

Himeko Kamishiro was holding on, her back and forehead already covered in cold sweat.

At the same time, her aura suddenly plummeted, from mid-B-level to early-B-level.

Even at the early stage of B-level, her aura was still very unstable, and there was a hint that it would continue to decline.

She swayed unsteadily, but Tamamo-no-Mae reacted quickly and caught her.

After sensing the physical condition of Princess Kamishiro through her spiritual power, Tamamo-no-Mae frowned and said with a hint of complaint.

"You shouldn't have thrown that flag."

"Your special ability was almost completely exhausted when you helped me escape, nearly depleting your potential."

"And that flag too..."

The three fox tails of Tamamo-no-Mae revealed the word "healing" in emerald green, and her hands emitted a green light as she healed Kamishiro-hime.

Over the years, we have maintained this relationship.

Their relationship was more than just that of superior and subordinate; they became true friends.

Because she was in the royal family, Princess Kamishiro had few peers with whom she could interact, let alone other people with similar talents and powers.

What's more, she's still a young girl.

My grandfather passed away, my father became seriously ill, and my mother was one of the Class B patients who died back then.

Coupled with the destiny of the rising royal family, all these factors combined left her with absolutely no opportunity to make suitable friends.

Until he met Tamamo-no-Mae.

Tamamo-no-Mae was also a high-ranking figure at Ryuko Shrine, and the two shared a lot in common.

Not only that, the two are both girls, and even their talents are surprisingly similar, both belonging to the mid-stage of B-rank.

Under these circumstances, the two became close friends.

Tamamo-no-Mae did her best to heal Hime-no-Mikoto, and even her fox tails sprouted two more strands.

Unfortunately, this healing was only a drop in the bucket; even with Tamamo-no-Mae's abilities, she couldn't heal Kamishiro Himeko's injuries.

This is not a physical injury.

Rather, it stems from the continuous atrophy and deterioration of supernatural abilities.

As a result, even Himeko's talent was declining.

At this moment, Himeko was pale and weak, her pink lips were ashen, and her body was so light and thin that she looked like a paper doll that she could be blown away at any moment.

Even so, she still had a smile on her face.

"I have no regrets about raising the flag."

"If the flag hadn't been raised, the soldiers and superhumans would have already fled. If the monsters had invaded the city, the outcome would have been only slightly better than the Old Gods destroying the city."

"I cannot let this Kyoto, a symbol of our country, perish."

Even if it costs my life.

"In terms of the outcome, the only thing I paid for the arrival of the Lord of Xiahuo Mountain was the deterioration of my superpower, which is already a good deal."

"but……"

At this point, the smile on Kamishiro Himeko's face faded, and she fell silent.

With her abilities deteriorating to this extent, the door to A-level status is probably permanently closed to her.

At first, she didn't feel resentful.

Instead, she subconsciously thought that she was probably going to disappoint her father and grandfather.

The rise of royalty shattered like a dream, never to return.

When Tamamo-no-Mae saw the silent Kamishiro-hime, as her close friend of several years, she clearly understood the reason for her disappointment.

The rise of the royal family was something that Princess Kamishiro had always been thinking about.

At present, it would be extremely fortunate for Himeko to maintain her superpower at B-rank; breaking through to A-rank is absolutely impossible.

Tamamo-no-Mae pursed her lips slightly, wanting to say words of comfort to the dejected and silent Kamishiro-hime.

Just then, suddenly...

A thought suddenly flashed into her mind.

Tamamo-no-Mae changed the words she was about to say and spoke instead.

"Ji Ming, if there were a way to give you another superpower, and that superpower's potential was no less than that of the All-Encompassing Manifestation."

"If I were to give you a chance to return to A-level and revive the royal family, would you be willing to accept it?"

Upon hearing this, a glimmer of light reappeared in the once-gloomy, pure white eyes of Kamishiro Himeko, and she rallied.

But rational thought led her to speak.

"So, Tamamo-no-Mae, what is the price?"

Such a wonderful thing could not be without a price. Hope ignited in her heart, but she feared that the price would be unacceptable to her.

When Tamamo-no-Mae saw Kamishiro-hime's appearance, she knew that the other party was clearly moved.

She narrowed her foxy purple eyes, pursed her pink lips, and spoke slowly.

"Your everything."

"And offer your loyalty to the Lady."

By the way, from now on, we won't have a superior-subordinate relationship anymore; I'll have to call her...

—My dear older sister!

Upon hearing Tamamo-no-Mae's words, Kamishiro Himeko's pure white eyes suddenly widened, her mind racing with thoughts.

everything?

Including one's royal status, one's own body and mind, everything.

However, the A-level title actually represents not only the rise of the royal family, but also the aspirations of all those with superpowers.

Moreover, Himeko Kamishiro herself possesses the talent to break through to A-rank.

It's impossible to say I'm truly unwilling to accept losing it now.

Moreover, while the rise of the royal family was what her father and grandfather hoped for, her own dream was to free this land from the strange and eerie phenomena.

They restored order and upheld their principles of righteousness and justice.

Without a doubt, Himeko was smitten.

She has dedicated more than a decade of her life to the royal family, and now she is going to pursue her own path.
