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

"Do your utmost to place every tiny spark of fire into the bodies of the monsters."

It is a common practice for daughters to share their mother's burdens.

Moreover, it would be a waste of too much energy to deal with something this bizarre again.

Upon hearing this, the daughters, who had been at a loss about how to deal with the regeneration of the monsters, immediately took action after having Natsumi Hanae's words as their backbone.

Summer Rinrei gazed at the numerous tiny flames of the temple that filled his vision.

She tried to manipulate the Hermitage Fire directly using the same methods she used to manipulate the Azure Heron Fire and the Red Dragon's powers.

Unexpectedly, it succeeded in just a moment.

This is related to the summer flower painting itself; she relinquished some of the usage rights.

If it is not released, even if the daughters do their best, they will only have a chance to ignite the fire in the temple if they use all their divine power.

Otherwise, it will remain motionless.

The ability to directly manipulate the fire, purely through control, is also related to Natsumi Rinrei himself.

First of all, the fire itself contains some characteristics of the Blue Heron Fire, which makes Natsumi Rin feel a sense of familiarity.

Both Natsumi Rinrei and his Aoguro Fire and Red Dragon abilities are outstanding in fire control.

In her presence now, even flames released by an A-level fire-type ability user would have no autonomy and would obey Xia Rilin's commands.

Even if you attack her, it won't cause any damage.

For the Red Dragon, it's more like a delicious snack that it can devour.

For these reasons, Natsumi Rinrei was able to directly control these hermitage fires.

But even so.

Controlling these temple fires is extremely difficult, requiring a very high level of skill in controlling the flames.

Manipulating the blazing fire, fine beads of sweat streamed down Natsumi Rinrei's delicate face.

However, her precision in controlling flames continued to improve.

While dodging attacks from the strange creatures.

On one side, she absorbed all the fire that had been distributed to the area around her into the bodies of the monsters.

Hoshikawa Oto proceeded methodically, using her soul power to manipulate the fire to contain the strange beings.

Chikuri Shin... was forcibly shoved in.

He blasted a hole the size of a bowl, then manipulated his qi-infused abilities to pour the fire into it.

The one making the fastest progress is Himeko, whose ability to send the firework into the bodies of the monsters in an instant with perfect accuracy, making her movements incredibly swift.

And the moment the fire was absorbed.

The fire in the temple, filled with an aura of deathly stillness, instantly enveloped the strange creatures and took effect.

The strange creatures that had been relentlessly attacking suddenly froze, motionless.

The limbs seemed to have developed their own consciousness, moving independently and trembling uncontrollably.

Upon seeing this, Xia Rihua's cherry lips involuntarily curved into a faint smile.

Sure enough, as she expected.

The special properties of the fire still play a role.

Indeed, as Hoshikawa Oto sensed, even if these strange beings possessed souls, their current bodies were not driven by those souls.

However, it is not entirely driven by Amaterasu.

Even Amaterasu, faced with countless numbers of them, could not possibly control each and every one of them completely.

Therefore, summer flower painting can be derived.

This was created by Amaterasu using the instincts of the supernatural beings, combined with her own manipulation of tiny threads.

This gives summer flower painting a more feasible approach.

You can simply start by using your instincts.

No matter how outrageous Amaterasu is, it could never discard the instincts of the supernatural, because once discarded, the supernatural can no longer be called supernatural, or even living beings.

So, instead of manipulating the supernatural, Amaterasu might as well manipulate the wood directly.

It is precisely because Amaterasu needs to utilize the abilities of the supernatural beings that she cannot abandon their instincts, thus keeping them within the category of 'living beings'.

And this is exactly what summer flower painting is all about.

The deathly stillness of the fire is the lifeblood of all living things.

Even with the intense pain from the strange fire, it was still able to launch an attack.

However, when the deathly aura of the fire permeated their bodies, the instinctive tremors from the creatures made them feel as if they had encountered a natural enemy; this was a memory etched deep within their flesh.

Just like a sheep encountering a fake wolf, it will still run away quickly, not daring to look back at all.

The strange creatures all stopped moving.

Like mosquitoes sprayed with insecticide, countless swarms of them fell straight down from the sky.

Until there was no more of that eerie creature ahead.

Summer Rinri couldn't help but smile. She took a few deep breaths, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and said softly.

"It's...it's a success."

She didn't actually expend much physical strength; it was just that she used a lot of energy to manipulate the fire.

However, thanks to this training, she was even more surprised by her ability to manipulate fire.

In this way, the divine intertwining of the Azure Heron Fire and the Red Dragon Fire might be done even better, and could provide greater assistance to the flower painting.

Hoshikawa Oto and the others also showed relieved smiles.

Upon seeing this, Natsumi Hanae spoke up.

"Now is not the time to relax."

"We are still on the outskirts of Takamagahara, and we haven't even seen Amaterasu's face yet."

"Facing the bizarre may be an easy challenge."

"The real challenge is yet to come."

As Natsumi Hanae continued speaking, the daughters, who had relaxed slightly, tensed up again.

However, unlike the tension of the previous two days, the tension now means they are going all out, not that they lack confidence. They now have the ability to help their mother.

It must be completed accurately and without error.

Summer Flower Painting did not hesitate for long. Every bit of time wasted meant that the progress bar for Amaterasu's recovery and full awakening was advancing.

She unleashed a fierce wind upon her daughters and continued her ascent towards Takamagahara.

In places where summer flower paintings are not seen.

Those bizarre creatures that kept falling, under the shimmering sun high in the sky and with the awakening of Amaterasu's partial consciousness, lost their value.

The strange creatures began to dissolve rapidly, and energy was quickly transferred along the black threads, although the energy was extremely thin and not pure.

However, the number of these strange creatures is quite large.

It did play a slight role in Amaterasu's recovery from her injuries.

Soon, Summer Flower Painting continued straight ahead.

They arrived at Takamagahara and landed on its outer edge.

However, Takamagahara was extremely quiet, as if it were not under Amaterasu's control.

But the sun overhead was so distinct and surging.

Summer Flower guessed that this was most likely Amaterasu's arrangement, but she had no other choice.

We can only keep moving forward.

As a result, the journey was smooth and unimpeded.

until……

———They arrived at the very center of Takamagahara.

Suddenly.

Countless tendrils, writhing and surging towards them from all directions.

……

……

Chapter 299: The Feast of the Hook Stars

Upon seeing this, Summer Flower instantly entered battle mode.

The temple fire, blessed by the crimson divinity, suddenly spread around, enveloping Natsuhika and her many daughters, forming a semi-circular protective barrier.
