Chapter 609

"Then wouldn't it be better to not get promoted to Main God and just stay in the Lower World?"

Broly felt that might actually be the life his Goddess Master dreamed of.

"That won't do, Broly. Your master here is a Goddess revered by countless Believers; how can I covet the good life of the Lower World and forget the Believers I possess? And responding to Believers is also one of a Goddess's important jobs!"

Besides guiding Dead Souls to the afterlife and guiding heroes to the Isekai to save the world, managing Mortal Realm Believer groups is also one of a Goddess's jobs.

Aqua merely disliked other tedious Goddess jobs, but when it came to accepting Believers' reverence and trust, and responding to her own Believers, she did so with great relish.

Just as the Hell Demons of the KonoSuba World need Negative Emotions, the Heavenly Goddesses of the KonoSuba World also need positive emotions.

Faith is the source of their power, and also an important thing for maintaining their own existence. A Goddess who loses Faith won't necessarily die, but becoming a stray on the roadside is a certainty.

In Mortal Realm terms, it's roughly like a big company CEO turning into a homeless person seen everywhere on the roadside. Although Aqua wants to live a leisurely life, she doesn't want to become a stray on the roadside herself.

"Money earned from hard work is sweat and blood money; only money earned from slacking off is a Salary. Broly, this is the workplace experience and Wisdom your master has accumulated over many years as a Goddess. Learn it well!"

Truly worthy of being the Heavenly Water Leech Goddess, Aqua passed on her own experience of slacking off at work to her student without a shred of shame, instead taking pride in it.

"Alright, Aqua Master, I've comprehended your earth-shattering wisdom. Can you please do some Proper Business now?"

Broly's personality was still comparatively serious; for the hit-or-miss things Aqua taught, he would always choose to learn selectively.

"You just arrived and make your master work. Broly, this child, can't you have a little more pity on your master who has already worked hard for a Long Time?"

Aqua started complaining.

"Aqua Master, you've worked hard."

The next moment, Broly floated up and embraced her from the Front, and whispered these words in her ear.

"Mmph, you child, you're really foul..."

Holding the Wine Bottle in Both Hands, embraced from the Front by her Disciple, the Goddess's cheeks flushed slightly red.

"It really feels like I'm not tired at once!"

The complaints turned into gentle words; Aqua now had the feeling of a Water Goddess who embraces all things.

"Yoshi, your master has perked up. Hurry up and bring out your prospective mother-in-law's Corpse in This World!"

Aqua is always so easily Satisfied. After being hugged by her Disciple and comforted with encouraging words, she perked up full of Spirit.

Broly hurriedly took out the Corpse that had been floating in the Crystal Palace for nearly Two Months and placed it directly on the Ground of the High-rise's rooftop.

And Tsuchimiya Mai's Corpse had no changes from when Broly took it; her Skin even still had the elasticity of a living person.

"She really is a beauty. Looks like one of the girls who will join the Crystal Palace in the future will also be a potential stock. It's just that the other party's mother's Breasts are a bit small."

Aqua commented on the appearance and figure of the deceased on the ground, and she felt her Disciple's wife would be better off with larger Breasts.

"Aqua Master..."

Broly urged her once.

"Alright alright, your master will resurrect her now."

Aqua took out her Lotus Staff and cast a Resurrection spell at the Corpse on the ground.

Holy Divine Power Descended; the Corpse of the Tsuchimiya Lady who had been smashed on the ground filled out at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Her complexion also changed from pale to rosy; the Fatal Injury she had once suffered was repaired, and her stopped pulse began beating again.

"Done, the person is alive!"

Resurrection magic that reverses life and death and defies natural Rules was just like ordinary Magic in Aqua's hands. In less than Ten Minutes since coming to This Side of the Isekai, Tsuchimiya Lady's Corpse had been revived.

"But Master, she hasn't woken up."

Broly waited a while, then pushed his prospective mother-in-law on the ground again, but she didn't move at all, which made him look at Aqua who was drinking alcohol beside him.

"Strange. Let me take a look."

Aqua had just drunk half a bottle of Sake and leaned over to check the situation.

"Eh, her Soul seems not to have returned."

Prying open Tsuchimiya Mai's eyelids to look, Aqua saw the woman's eyes completely devoid of Spirit, and immediately Understood what the situation was.

"This World has an afterlife, right?"

"Yeah, that place is called the Great Spirit Vein."

"I get it. Her Body was revived by me, but her Soul has been detained by that Great Spirit Vein."

Aqua's Resurrection magic is actually divided into two parts: one part is physical revival, and the other part uses Goddess Authority to open a Convenient door for the Dead Souls.

And in Isekai Resurrection, the prerequisite for her to resurrect someone is that the World must have an afterlife, or that the dead person's Soul does not leave the dead Body — such a Setting must exist for it to work.

"Then what do we do now?"

Broly asked.

"Very simple. I just need to shout once."

Aqua said confidently.

"Soul Call!"

The Goddess spread her palm and used another new Magic on the Soulless female Body on the ground.

Deep in the Great Spirit Vein, the Soul River constructed from the Souls of all living beings, at this moment, the Pure Spirit Bodies originally sleeping here, formed by the Great Spirit Vein itself, those existences called Land Gods, were woken up by a voice.

"Anyone here? Is anyone in? Give me a reply, Bastard. Does this World's afterlife have anyone in charge or not?"

"Who are you?"

The Land God with the appearance of an old man, who woke up first, asked.

"Who am I? Haha. I am the Great Heavenly Main God, the Water Goddess Aqua."

【Heavenly Main God? Water Goddess? Aqua?】

The Land God with the appearance of an old man was a bit puzzled; these were all terms He had never heard of.

"Do you have business with me?"

Although He had never heard of Aqua's Reputation, the Land God with the appearance of an old man still asked.

"I want to revive someone. Trouble you, native god of the Lower World, hurry up and open a special channel for me, let that dead person's soul return to the mortal world."

Aqua didn't beat around the bush, directly explaining her request.

"???"

The Land God in the form of an old man was somewhat dazed.

"You are the one who inherited the Nine-Tailed Power?"

After a while, He finally asked.

"Nine Tails, what is that thing?"

Aqua countered with a question.

"Then you are one of the Black and White Shrine Maidens?"

The Land God asked again.

"Hey hey hey, you guy whose voice sounds like an old man's, I already told you I'm the Main God of the Heavenly Realm, what the hell is a Shrine Maiden?

Don't drag up these useless things, just answer whether you'll open the special channel or not, hand over the soul of the person I want to revive?"

The Land God in the form of an old man: "..."

He had been born for thousands of years, yet had never seen such a bossy guy.

"I am the Guardian Deity of the Great Spirit Vein, life and death are natural law, I will not break natural law."

"So that means you're refusing?"

"Since you are also a god, naturally you must also uphold natural law."

"Hah, don't be so rigid, I'm the dignified Main God of the Heavenly Realm after all, condescending to come to your Lower World, you should at least give me some face, opening a back door should be proper, right? I'll remember your favor."

Old man Land God: "..."

Is this something that can be negotiated?

"Sorry."

He directly severed Aqua's divine power linking into the Great Spirit Vein.

"Ah, bastard, you actually hung up on my communication?"

In the Outside World, Aqua's face darkened. She thought that as a god of the Upper Realm, she would be fawned over by native gods of the Lower World, but instead she lost face, which made her frantic with rage.

"What's wrong, Aqua Master."

Broly hurriedly asked.

"Broly, you wait, I'll contact them again."

Aqua didn't want to tell her Disciple about the god of this world's Afterlife not giving her face, yet contacted them again.

"You bastard, do you know who you've offended, daring not to give me face, believe it or not..."

In the Great Spirit Vein, the Land God in the form of an old man thought things were over, but didn't expect that strange power to intrude into the Spirit Vein again, from within came the threatening abusive scolding of that self-proclaimed Water Goddess guy, simply like a shrew.

More Pure Spirit Bodies born within the Great Spirit Vein were woken up, they all looked with surprise at the Land God in the form of an old man who had been born the longest.

"I don't know who this guy is, but she wants to revive a person, wants me to open a back door for a soul that may have already entered the Great Spirit Vein, I didn't agree, and she started scolding me."

Hearing this, the other Land Gods nodded, expressing recognition.

"Not an Undying, yet wants to revive after death, what are they thinking?"

The Great Tengu spoke first.

"Right, transcending life and death, are mortals qualified?"

The other Land Gods also agreed.

"Hah, so there are even more native gods of the Lower World's afterlife, hurry up, send someone who can solve things, I, the great Main God of the Heavenly Realm Aqua, promise, as long as you give me this face, I'll also give you a bit of face, won't call you native gods of the Lower World anymore."

The many Land Gods: "..."

"Where did this guy come from, speaking so arrogantly?"

Many Land Gods looked down on mortals, but had never encountered someone who looked down on them inside and out.

Aqua's communication, unsurprisingly, was hung up on again.

Several attempts in a row, every time hung up on, Aqua was worked up into a red-hot rage.

Pity, she had no Sect/Church in this world, otherwise she'd definitely make those Lower World native gods who dared talk back to her infamous, if she could know the names of the Lower World gods who talked back to her.

"Broly, very sorry."

"What exactly happened, Aqua Master?"

"This world, the native gods of the afterlife don't respect me at all, they completely won't give me face, unwilling to let the dead person's soul return, I can't fully revive your prospective mother-in-law."

Aqua didn't mention her bossy attitude of ordering the Land God around at all, only aggrievedly told about being bullied by the Great Spirit Vein's native gods.

"Aqua Master, don't worry, I'll resolve all of this."

Broly clenched his small fist, he decided to win back face for his own Master, and also make an effort to revive Tsuchimiya Kagura's mother.

Slightly sensing the Qi, Broly flew off in one direction, and in no time at all he returned carrying the still-shaken Sanzu Kawahiro.

Sanzugawa Kazuhiro was put down, he saw Tsuchimiya Mai on the ground, also saw the White Shadow Ninja to the side, this person was very smart, although the Top Boss Black Shadow Ninja wasn't at the scene, he still guessed Broly's identity.

The youth didn't hesitate in the slightest, upon landing he knelt toward Broly's direction: "Subject Sanzugawa Kazuhiro, greets Master."

"Mm."

Broly nodded, thought it was the Black Shadow Ninja who told the other party his identity.

"I want to revive someone, but the Land Gods inside the Great Spirit Vein won't give me face, you say what to do?"

He asked directly.

Sanzugawa Kazuhiro: "???"

Is this something he can know what to do about?

No, the Killing Stone shouldn't be gathered yet, right, how can they revive someone?

Sanzu Kawahiro discovered at this moment that the Tsuchimiya Mai on the ground was actually alive.

This made him subconsciously touch his eyes, and through the tactile sensation, he confirmed the Killing Stone was still in his eye sockets.

In an instant, this person's expression became even more shocked; just how was this done?

Just as he stood dazed in his original place, Broly asked again: "I heard you are very familiar with the Great Spirit Vein; do you have a way to let me enter?"

Broly was not surprised by the situation where his own summoned creature's subordinate didn't know what to do; he decided to rely on his own way to solve the problem.

It was just that he didn't know how to enter the Great Spirit Vein to see those Land Gods who didn't give his own master face.

"Uh, I can introduce you, my lord, into Tamamo-no-Mae's Court; that is a Special Space constructed within the Great Spirit Vein."

Sanzugawa Kazuhiro hurriedly replied; the identity of the master behind the Shadow Ninja didn't shock him excessively, but being able to revive someone without relying on the Killing Stone, although it didn't look like a Perfect Resurrection situation, still filled his heart with fervent heat.

"Then I'll trouble you; as for the matter of reviving your mother, you just need to bring your mother's remains before my master."

Broly was already impatient to enter the Great Spirit Vein and search for those Land Gods who didn't give his own master face.

"Broly-sama, entering Tamamo-no-Mae's Court requires the Killing Stone's assistance, you..."

"White Shadow."

The Special Tool Killing Stone returned to Broly's hand once again.

Following the Butterfly Youth's instructions, Broly let the Killing Stone's power entangle him.

But after standing in the original place for a while, he was still in the original place.

"I'm ready; are you not ready?"

Broly couldn't help but look at Sanzugawa Kazuhiro and ask.

A part of consciousness had already entered the Tamamo-no-Mae's Court space, but Sanzugawa Kazuhiro, who couldn't find Broly's traces: "???"

"Broly-sama, please do not resist the Killing Stone's power of traction."

"I am not resisting any power; additionally, I also cannot feel any traction."

Sanzugawa Kazuhiro fell silent for a moment, then walked over.

"Excuse me, Broly-sama."

Saying this, the other party placed his hand on the Killing Stone in Broly's hand, and upon touching the Killing Stone held by the Saiyan, Sanzugawa Kazuhiro quickly obtained the exact answer.

It wasn't that this piece of Killing Stone wasn't exerting its traction effect; it was just that the guy in front of him holding the Killing Stone, who looked like a child on the outside but was actually an Old Monster of unknown age, had a Soul that was too powerful.

The Killing Stone's power to traction souls was like a mayfly trying to shake a big tree; it didn't even have the qualification to give the big tree a sensation.

"Broly-sama, your Soul is too powerful; it seems the Killing Stone's power alone cannot move you."

Sanzu Kawahiro chose to speak the truth.

Broly: "..."
