Chapter 204: Riku Kage Is Dumbfounded

"When the sand-sculptor netizens stop acting like decent human beings, their power is at its strongest…"

Kamikawa Mitsu muttered in his heart a line that had been popular online in his previous life; he never imagined that the exposure of his identity was actually the doing of a bunch of sand-sculptor netizens.

"Nisan, is our family really the Ashiya family? Is what they're saying online correct? I saw them bring out so much evidence, it doesn't look like they're lying."

After her excitement, Kamikawa Chie calmed down.

As a member of the Kamikawa family, others actually knew the family's affairs better than she did — just thinking about it felt infuriating, but the fact was exactly that.

"It should be true. There's nothing wrong with this information."

Kamikawa Mitsu had no intention of hiding it.

Worth mentioning, the origins of the Kamikawa family had already been exposed online, and the reaction was so huge the spread was visibly fast; even the Supernatural Response Department probably couldn't suppress it if they wanted to, because it had already spread abroad.

This was also why, when Kamikawa Mitsu woke up, the internet was full of information about the Kamikawa family's origins, and Kamikawa Chie could see it just by casually scrolling online.

"Don't overthink it, hurry up and eat, or you'll be late for school."

Kamikawa Mitsu didn't really care — exposure was only a matter of time; he had long been prepared for it.

As if thinking of something, Kamikawa Mitsu smiled.

"We're basically celebrities now. The title of descendants of the Supernatural is a big deal — it's possible that the moment you arrive at school, Chie, classmates and students will be asking you for autographs."

"Autographs? I won't give any. Anyway, I'll listen to Nisan and just be a regular student."

Saying this, Kamikawa Chie's eyeballs rolled, and she smiled into crescent eyes, like a cute little fox.

"No, I should give autographs, but not for free — I'll charge for them. One thousand yen per signature. Hehe, Nisan, I just discovered I've found a way to make money."

Her eyes shining with the gleam of a money-grubber, she stood there calculating how many students were in the school and how much money she could earn.

Calculating and calculating, Kamikawa Chie stopped counting on her fingers and said slowly.

"Actually, Nisan, I kind of don't hope that our family is a shrine lineage."

"Why? Didn't you used to really hope our family was a shrine lineage? That way we could be glorious, and no one would dare bully you again, and no one would dare bully your friends."

"It is glorious, it is powerful, but what if one day the ancestor comes back? If he sees only the two of us left as descendants and wants to continue the bloodline, taking… taking Nisan to become Supernatural, and what if the Primordial Battlefield war breaks out and Nisan is required to go fight there.

Descendants carrying Ashiya Douman's bloodline cultivating the Supernatural would definitely be very powerful. If Nisan becomes powerful, he might have to go to the Primordial Battlefield."

Kamikawa Chie said slowly.

Nowadays, everyone in the world knows how terrifying the Primordial Battlefield is, and Kamikawa Chie is no exception.

Watching powerful gods die tragically on the battlefield, watching the ferocity of the great war, Kamikawa Chie didn't dare to imagine what it would be like for her brother Kamikawa Mitsu to go to the Primordial Battlefield.

It's not like — there's no such thing as "I think you're amazing, so you definitely won't die, you can definitely survive." That's just overthinking.

No matter who it is, even if they believe and are certain their family or friends are very powerful, they won't truly not worry, won't truly think he's omnipotent.

Hearing this, a warm current flowed through Kamikawa Mitsu's heart.

"Chie, don't overthink it. Don't worry, I'm not stupid — why would I go to the Primordial Battlefield? If I had to go, I'd definitely learn from God and just lie low there."

"No way, Nisan, you definitely couldn't lie low. With your temperament, you'd probably fight your way to the center of the Primordial Battlefield just like Quetzalcoatl."

"Chie, you think that highly of me?"

"Of course, you're my Nisan — totally amazing."

"You're so cheeky. Hurry up and eat, we're really going to be late for school."

"Hehe, okay."

……

After a night of fermentation and spread, the news that the Kamikawa family was the Ashiya family swept across Japan, spread abroad at extreme speed, broke out of Asia, and headed toward the whole world.

Tokyo, Japan, Arakawa Ward, a maid café.

The moment Rigui arrived at the shop, her maid coworkers swarmed around her.

"This is huge, this is huge! Rigui, have you heard? The Kamikawa family are descendants of Ashiya Douman — that Chie-chan who came to our shop yesterday, she's actually a descendant of the Supernatural! I never dreamed in my life that we'd be this close to a Supernatural descendant. How amazing."

"Rigui, have you been online? Chie-chan and her brother are descendants of the Ashiya family — they're Supernatural!"

"Rigui, you know what? The first boy you ever proactively added — that Kamikawa Mitsu — he's a descendant of the Supernatural! Ah, Rigui, you really are something — not only are you this pretty, but your taste is this good too. The person you proactively added turned out to be Supernatural. Come on, tell us! Did you already see that Kamikawa-kun was extraordinary?"

"Right, right, right! If you meet a good guy, you have to share with us, you can't keep him all to yourself. By the way, Rigui, you didn't really add Kamikawa-kun's friend because you saw he was extraordinary, did you? Come on, tell us how you saw that Kamikawa-kun was extraordinary."

"Ehhh, I really regret it. If only I'd added Kamikawa-kun's LINE back then. Being friends with the Supernatural would definitely be thrilling."

"Thrilling? You little minx, I bet the 'thrilling' you're talking about is a different kind of thrilling. Speaking of which, going 404, 404, 404 with the Supernatural must be pretty 404, right?"

The maids chattered on, one voice after another, nonstop.

The more they talked, the more excited they got, the more hyped they got, bombarding Rigui with questions.

Rigui chatted with Kamikawa Mitsu every day — even during work, the maids had seen it, so they knew Rigui and Kamikawa Mitsu were very close. Now that they'd learned Kamikawa Mitsu was a Supernatural descendant and possibly Supernatural himself, how could they not be excited?

"Speaking of thrilling — Rigui, I've noticed these past few days you get off work early every day, leaving early and coming back late. When we ask where you go, you won't say. You haven't already gotten together with Kamikawa Mitsu, have you?" one maid suddenly asked.

The moment the words were spoken, the maids erupted, eyes shining, their gossip souls burning fiercely.

"They must be together, and I bet they've already 404'd." A mature-type maid winked at Rigui alone: "How was it? Was the Supernatural's holy spear baptism a bit more intense?"

One after another, maids understood, and all transformed into the King of Filth.

"Looking at how good your mood's been lately, it must be pretty intense."

"I seriously suspect that's the reason you've been wanting to buy cosplay outfits lately."

Rigui was dumbfounded. At this moment, she couldn't take in anything her coworkers were saying at all. She stood there in a daze, with only one thought in her mind.

Kamikawa-kun is a descendant of the Supernatural? And possibly Supernatural himself??

At first, her thought was that the maids were joking, trying to tease her — April Fool's had arrived, hadn't it.

The next moment.

"What are you talking about? Kamikawa-kun is Supernatural? Who's spreading this rumor?"

Looking at her coworkers' expressions, it didn't seem like a joke, so it must be true. Rigui's first thought was that it was a rumor, someone talking nonsense — after all, Kamikawa Mitsu had appeared in the video of the Fallen King, so probably someone wanted to attract attention and deliberately made it up.

"It's not a rumor. It's all over the internet right now. If you don't believe it, look — there's even evidence."

The older-sister maid took out her phone, opened an online forum thread, and handed it to Glass Marionette.

As could be seen, threads across every major forum had been flooded with information that the Kamikawa family were descendants of Ashiya Dōman.

……

Meanwhile.

Just as Glass Marionette was looking at the forum thread on her phone, in Tokyo, Japan, atop Higashio Dashan……
