Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

"Hey, something's not right with you, human." Enmusubi looked at Kousaka Kyosuke with a strange expression.

Without giving it any further thought, Kyosuke Kousaka naturally revealed a dejected expression.

"I'm so sorry, I just thought of something without thinking about it."

Upon hearing what Kousaka Kyosuke said, the goddess of predestined union showed understanding and tolerance on her holy face.

"Actually, you don't need to worry too much. The evil spread by those evil gods is something that humans can hardly resist. As a result, being corrupted by the evil gods and becoming their slaves is something that can't be helped."

"But don't worry! A new God of War is about to take office, and his ferocity... cough, his strength should definitely be enough to defeat those evil gods!"

Yes, the God of Fate originally wanted to say the word "fierce".

However, considering that it would be impolite to say it that way, he quickly changed his mind.

"A war god?" Kyosuke Kousaka's expression turned hopeful and uneasy again. "He must be incredibly powerful, right?"

Kyosuke Kousaka was very good at managing his facial expressions from a very early age, but he rarely uses them nowadays.

After all, it is necessary for him to maintain a low profile and even a very humble attitude when his strength has not yet increased, otherwise he would probably encounter a lot of trouble at the beginning when he goes to dangerous areas.

"It is quite powerful..." Yuanjieshen said with certainty, "When the God of War was born, dark clouds covered the sun and storms raged, as if the world was about to be destroyed! Cough cough, anyway, you don't need to worry."

As he continued, the God of Fate quickly shut his mouth again.

The newly appointed God of War, Susanoo, is a taboo subject among all the gods of Takamagahara, and everyone avoids talking about him.

As Enmusubi said, the terrifying phenomenon at the time of Susanoo's birth was so frightening that even the most senior members were filled with apprehension and even fear.

They worried that Takamagahara might perish at the hands of this god of storms and thunder, and they also worried that this powerful god might become arrogant and disrespectful to the God-King due to his power, thus shaking the stability of Takamagahara.

Even Yuanjie Shen, who had not yet officially met the new Martial God, was a little scared, fearing that she might accidentally offend him.

She was just a weak deity who protected the bonds of human relationships!

"Then I'll go first—"

"Yes, come with me. Lady Amaterasu is currently gathered with many high-ranking gods to discuss the matter of fighting against the evil god. You will probably be able to see Lady Amaterasu a little later."

"……OK."

After a moment's thought, Kyosuke Kosaka decided to follow the Goddess of Fate.

At that moment, upon hearing what the spirit of the predestined union was saying, he realized that he had traveled to the "past".

This is very fortunate.

Otherwise, even Kyosuke Kousaka wouldn't know how to face it.

As for the issue of the human envoys? We'll discuss that when things are truly exposed.

At least for now, he must learn more about the movements of the evil gods, especially about the Yamata no Orochi, otherwise he will have wasted the purpose of his trip.

There's no need to rush back. In any case, if we don't stop Orochi's actions, the world will still be destroyed.

"Huh? Weren't you carrying a weapon just now? How come you..."

Suddenly, the spirit of the predestined union turned around and found that Kyosuke Kousaka's hands were empty, and he was stunned.

Kyosuke Kosaka looked puzzled: "Weapons? Although I know some martial arts, I am well aware that we cannot bring weapons here in Takamagahara."

"Oh, perhaps I'm seeing things," said the God of Fate.

She wasn't surprised at all that Kousaka Kyosuke knew martial arts.

Ultimately, humanity has begun fighting against a new species called "Demons"—humans corrupted by sin.

Not long ago, the God-King Amaterasu even had the gods bestow upon her the secret techniques of Takamagahara, so that humans could have the power to fight against demons.

By the way.

Takamagahara is not without its share of helping humans exterminate those demons who only obey the orders of evil gods.

But most of their power was devoted to fighting against those serpent demons and evil gods' minions, who were even more powerful than demons and ghosts and seemed to be endless.

For this reason, Takamagahara could only be dealt with by humans themselves, since most of the demons and monsters weren't particularly strong, and the secret techniques of Takamagahara were quite powerful...

Then, Kyosuke Kousaka followed behind the Goddess of Love.

And his demonic sword?

It was naturally hidden away secretly.

Fortunately, the current God of Fate is just as easy to fool as the one I knew.

"The Demon Sword was forged by sacrificing many gods from the Central Plains. Although it has nothing to do with the gods of Takamagahara, it's still best to be a little careful."

Kousaka Kyosuke secretly thought.

He was clear about this from the beginning.

Apart from those who are selfless and willing to sacrifice themselves, most other individuals share similar natures.

Just like if Kyosuke Kousaka were to openly take out the Demon Sword, some discerning gods would surely recognize something amiss, and then things would become troublesome.

How so? Kousaka Kyosuke is currently on the same side as Takamagahara, and even if he has any conflicts with any of the gods there, he will try his best to ease the tension.

Yes, he will remember his purpose—to fight against Yamata no Orochi and other evil gods.

"This is your room. I'll come back in a little while and show you around. After all, you're a guest, and we in Takamagahara can't be impolite."

"Thank you, Lord of Fate."

"Don't be shy. If you need anything, just hold this red thread tightly and call my name in your heart."

The God of Fate handed out a red thread.

Kyosuke Kosaka smiled and thanked him again before accepting the gift.

After the spirit of the Enmusubi left, Kyosuke Kousaka summoned the Demon Sword, with Longkui still possessing it. She didn't intend to come out, lest she inadvertently reveal her aura and arouse suspicion.

"This must have been in the past, right?"

"Yes, that's pretty much confirmed."

"But I'm afraid we can't just change history, otherwise, as Lord Ara said, the world we lived in before might be shaken..."

"Yes, at this time, listen more and act less, and act according to the situation," Kousaka Kyosuke said to Longkui.

Things involving time travel are too dangerous.

Kyosuke Kosaka wasn't sure if anything would change, but he knew it was best for him not to do anything rashly.

He wouldn't have impersonated an envoy of the human world if it weren't for the need to quickly learn about Yamata no Orochi and incidentally stop its actions.

When he is truly exposed, he will then briefly inform Amaterasu.

This was a solution that Huang mentioned before he left.

Kyosuke Kosaka still carries a wisp of starlight given to him by Ara as a token.

Soon after, the God of Fate returned.

This time, as mentioned before, I plan to take Kyosuke Kousaka to other parts of Takamagahara.

"It seems you've created quite a few new things on your earthly side..."

"It's nothing really, it's just to make life less boring."

"So which ones do you find interesting?"

The bond that led Kyosuke Kousaka through the sacred Takamagahara seemed to stem from a deep curiosity about the world and a desire to know everything.

Kyosuke Kosaka had no choice but to try his best to make something up.

For the time being, we still need to rely on our status as envoys to effectively obtain the latest intelligence information in Takamagahara, so we naturally cannot reveal too many clues.

"I wonder what the highest point over there is—"

"Originally a sacrificial ceremony... now it's being used as a trial ground. Don't worry, the God of War is already capturing those evil gods who are disturbing the world."

The God of Fate once again inspired Kyousuke Kosaka.

Kyosuke Kosaka couldn't help but smile, revealing a grateful expression that was genuinely heartfelt.

"Although she often secretly calls the Goddess of Fate 'Silly Goddess,' her actions truly befit an angel."

Moreover, the society we live in now is not as "social" as Kyosuke Kosaka had been before.

Kyosuke Kosaka believed that she was a very normal woman with strong feminine qualities.

Of course.

This was just an unintentional comment.

"We've caught it! The Yamata no Orochi has been successfully captured!"

One of the gods was running around excitedly, shouting and proclaiming the news.

Upon hearing this news, Enmusubi beamed with joy and turned to look at Kousaka Kyosuke.

"Great! Now both Takamagahara and the human world are completely safe."

"yes……"

Kyosuke Kosaka forced a natural, happy smile, but he felt no joy at all.

The course of history cannot be changed.
