Izumi Ascends

Of course, Natsume had no idea what little scheme High Priest Yama was plotting.

But even if he had known, he would not have minded.

To keep one's precious treasure from falling into an enemy's hands, it was perfectly normal to leave several extra restrictions in place.

If he were trading with Otsutsuki Hishiki, he would definitely cheat the other party to death without leaving even the slightest chance of survival...

"That will naturally bring that thing into this dimension..."

Natsume froze slightly.

It was really that simple?

"Are you sure you want to know that [Divine Artifact]'s true name?"

"What do you mean? Is there some other danger?"

"Not danger,
