Heaven-Sent Girl vs. Childhood Friend?
Although it's somewhat frustrating, if this is Qili's own idea, then so be it... I hope she doesn't die a tragic death in Wind City.
"I hope you have a good relationship with the King of Wind City."
Muttering to himself, the man adjusted his glasses and began to get down to business. "Regarding this matter, you should communicate with the Publicity Department."
"..." Why is the Publicity Department involved...? Does this refer to the instructions to find a brainy beast-like Monster, or is it something else?
Seeing Qili's puzzled expression, the man realized that Qili was unaware of this matter, so he coughed twice.
"Ahem, it's the cabinet ministers' idea. They want to do something similar to what you're doing... borrowing the King of Wind City to impress others."
Hearing this, Qili became even more confused.
"Who is this for? What does it have to do with the Publicity Department?"
"..."
"It's for those who are interested. As for the Publicity Department... go there. They're just doing what the cabinet ministers want."
"I can't say anything right now, otherwise it would be difficult for me to be caught in the middle."
Qili:"..."
Qili: Stupid Japan, stupid association, stupid cabinet, stupid bureaucracy.

"Crack--"
Cong Yu chewed on the smoked dried fish... The smoked salmon sent by the God King was of really good quality, the meat as beautiful as a ruby.
The taste was also quite amazing.
It's a bit hard, though... but consider it a good teeth rub.
While chewing on dried fish, Cong Yu walked out of the room and saw Yaochuan Guang and Lantian Zhu leaning their heads together on the sofa.
What kind of stunts have those two put on for him again?!
"Cong Yu- chan! Come here quickly, let's watch together!"
"..." They actually invited me to join?
Cong Yu thought to herself, then peeked at Yaochuan Guang's phone, which was lying horizontally in his hand, seemingly watching a video.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Wind City News.
If Lantian Zhu is the kind of person who reads the news, then Cong Yu can understand it; older generations of magical girls just have habits that are a bit different from those of younger people. But Yaochuan Guang...
They've even started watching the news.
Cong Yu thought this to herself, then looked at the title...
Monster attempt to seize control of the Wind City, plunging the magical girls into a fierce battle. The King of Wind City intervenes, rescuing the team from dire straits!
"..." Upon closer inspection of the video...
Wow, that's totally me (seriously).
Cong Yu remained silent, watching himself in the video wearing a mask. With filters and slow-motion editing, he looked like the male lead in some idol movie.
It's that kind of stereotypical male lead character who seems ready to tell the female lead "Don't be afraid, I'm here" at any moment.
Cong Yu silently opened the Metaber search on her phone and found that the video had gone viral.
Judging from the shooting angle, it seems to have been a clip from that team's footage, capturing the drone's aerial view, and even adding CG animation.
The integration is excellent... The person who made the video is a professional.
Thinking this, Cong Yu scrolled through the comments section below.
So handsome!
Is the King of Japan really this kind?
[Not the king of Japan, but the king of the Wind City.]
[The first time I encountered a strange person protecting humanity.]
The figure standing in front of that magical girl squad definitely gave me a sense of security. Our king, all he ever does is fight...
[The Monster King here is actually quite good; he's been helping put out fires and solve the problem of species overpopulation. Love comes from Australia.]
[What are you guys thinking? Praising a weirdo? A bunch of idiots, all traitors to humanity.]
Finally, Cong Yu saw a different comment and tried to click on it. Then he failed because he saw a notification—
This comment no longer exists.
"..." Someone is controlling the comments?!
This isn't right... Who's trying to flatter me?
Chapter 133 A Sudden Arrival VS Childhood Sweetheart?
"Cong Yu! Waaaaah, I'm so touched!"
As Takemikazuchi lay on the bed, Cong Yu, he let Murasame apply Hair Growth Ointment to his tail, his face full of emotion.
However, Cong Yu felt it was best to lay out the unpleasant truth upfront.
"Let me make this clear first, this is Hair Growth Ointment I asked someone to make, so I can't guarantee it will work for you... um--"
As Cong Yu spoke, she reached out and applied the green, herbal ointment-like substance to Takemikazuchi's two tails. "You might need to prepare yourself for the possibility of going completely bald... Can you accept that?"
Upon hearing Cong Yu's words, Takemikazuchi's mouth dropped open, his face blank with disbelief, seemingly unable to accept what that future might look like.
"No!!!!"
He wailed, his four legs flailing like a fish out of water. "No! Cong Yu, you have to think of something! Save me!"
Cong Yu couldn't help but chuckle to herself at this.
Shuten watched silently from the side, occasionally taking a sip of sake, a disdainful expression on his face...
Cong Yu is scaring people again.
Although Cong Yu "usually" a very nice person, these little acts of rudeness can sometimes be quite frightening.
"If it doesn't work, then die once—"
Cong Yu suggested this with a wicked grin. "After you die and are resurrected, maybe your hair will grow back."
As she said this, Cong Yu poked Takemikazuchi's still-fuzzy butt. " With Japan happening so frequently in Japan, you'll be resurrected soon."
In response to Cong Yu's words, Takemikazuchi's tail flicked weakly. "Let's talk about it later. If possible, I don't want to use this method."
After death, you can't feel anything; it's like being locked in Little Black, and your sense of time becomes very blurred.
Even if you're lucky, you might be able to revive in a very short time, but the experience is still not very good...
"Time drags on like a year" is an understatement.
It's probably like an hour feels like a year, or even a second feels like an eternity...
"So, Takemikazuchi, where have you been all these years, struggling and falling down? Getting yourself all bald?"
In response to Cong Yu's question sitting beside him, Takemikazuchi affectionately tucked his tail under his chin and said, "I just wandered around Japan, didn't go anywhere... I just came to Kyoto to freeload when I got hungry."
After thinking for a moment, Takemikazuchi made a rather irresponsible guess. "He must have been drinking before that caused him to fall."
Damn it!
Shuten couldn't stand it anymore. She Takemikazuchi's raised hand away from under him. "Don't talk nonsense. The sake from Mount Oe is definitely fine. Why don't you get it checked out? Maybe you're allergic to alcohol."
Takemikazuchi thought this made some sense, "You never know, it might be true, it might not be..."
However, Takemikazuchi was reluctant to go to the hospital for a checkup.
So he chose not to continue the topic, instead putting his hands back in his pockets and lying on the bed pretending to be dead.
"So, Shuten, how have you been lately?"
Cong Yu asked Shuten, who was sitting on the bed leaning against the wall behind him, "Have you and Tamamo decided how to become king?"
It's normal for Cong Yu to have such questions.
Although the five kings of Japan get along well because of Cong Yu's presence, Shuten and Tamamo already knew each other.
Although they weren't exactly best friends, they did live in Kyoto and lived peacefully as King Level.
But what happened next was rather awkward.
Because the two of them were ultimately destined to become kings...
Although there's no need for them to scatter across different countries to find their own kingdoms, like those outside of Japan.
However, both Shuten and Tamamo quite liked Kyoto.
This is very awkward.
"I haven't decided yet, but Tamamo said before that she and I could share Kyoto equally, but after thinking about it, I still didn't agree."
Shuten said this, tilting his head back to drink with a sigh, "My subordinates said we could try a two-kingdoms system, but Tamamo and I both feel it's strange."
That does seem strange.
There seems to be no precedent for anything like this in history... If it succeeds, it will be a groundbreaking event.
The people of Kyoto have really had the worst luck imaginable.
However, after thinking for a moment, Cong Yu said, "I think Kyoto is now practically under the joint rule of the two kings."
In response, Takemikazuchi seemed to agree with Cong Yu's words, "Indeed, there are Oni Clan, fox spirits, and Tengu on the streets."
Now that you mention it, it's true.
Shuten thought for a moment, but still didn't say anything, just shook his head. "Let's talk about this later, when the five of us get together."
As she spoke, Shuten sat in her chair, swinging her legs, and turned her gaze to Cong Yu: "And you? How have you been lately?"
"..." Cong Yu paused for a moment, then coughed lightly. "Ahem, what I'm about to say, please don't be afraid."
Takemikazuchi and Shuten exchanged a glance.
"We're not afraid, you said..." X2
Cong Yu nodded, then briefly summarized his current situation. "I'm living with a magical girl now."
Takemikazuchi was filled with respect at Cong Yu's words, while Shuten in a tactical stance.
"Which magical girl?"
Amidst Shuten's questions, Cong Yu explained, "It's not any one of them, it's someone you don't know, a magical girl from Wind City."
Takemikazuchi felt he understood, and he nodded. "Is it a magical girl you're controlling?"
Cong Yu shook her head.
"An active magical girl."
"..." Shuten: "Huh?!?"
Takemikazuchi: "Huh?"
Seeing the shocked expressions on their faces, Cong Yu coughed lightly. "Well, they're three rather cute magical girls."
Shuten: "Huh?"
Takemikazuchi: "What?!"
"..." That's outrageous, absolutely outrageous.
Cong Yu is actually living with a magical girl?!
This is Cong Yu!
"Didn't you always look down on magical girls? And always say that the existence of magical girls is a cancer on the world?"
Shuten asked incredulously, completely unable to believe it. "Does the Snow Woman know? Does the Snow Woman know about this?!"
As Shuten questioned him, Takemikazuchi was also filled with astonishment. "Cong Yu, what's wrong with you? Have you been possessed? Have you mutated?"
"..." Is it really necessary to make it sound so serious?
Cong Yu smiled awkwardly and waved her hand, explaining, "The past is the past, the present is the present... and Wind City."
Hearing this, Takemikazuchi felt he understood again and was relieved. "I see, is it for intelligence purposes?"
