"Snow Sky-Dog, do you have time today for coffee with me?" Mizuchi Haruka's smile was as bright as a beautiful flower awakened by a tiny dewdrop as the first rays of a new day slowly dyed the sky red, pushing back the dark shadows."Mizuchi Haruka, you look stunning today, and your smile is truly captivating! Because of this, I cannot refuse your offer, Lady Mizuchi Haruka!""You're only good at flattering beautiful women like me, Snow Sky-Dog! But I quite like this aspect of your personality! Let's go, Snow Sky-Dog, to the café with the most romantic scenery in the Human World!""I am more than willing to do that, my beautiful lady Mizuchi Haruka!"And so the two deities descended to the Human World, flying to a café with a tranquil yet spacious ambiance. Everything in this café was arranged immaculately and neatly. And as Mizuchi Haruka had said, this café had the most romantic scenery in the Human World."Hmm, so I've taken the lead over Seraphina Frostwind in a very important move
"Snow Sky-Dog, there's a letter from the World of Humans addressed to you!" Kurogami Masayuki held the letter and approached where Snow Sky-Dog was sitting."Thank you, big brother, Kurogami Masayuki, please give me the letter!" Snow Sky-Dog opened the letter and read it. An expression of indescribable joy appeared on his handsome face. His mouth formed an irresistibly charming smile, capable of leaving a profound impression on anyone who met his gaze."Is it a letter from Seraphina Frostwind, Snow Sky-Dog?""I'm not sure anymore, Kurogami Masayuki!""Not sure? Are you trying to deceive me, Snow Sky-Dog? I'm not as naive and easily deceived as Mizuchi Haruka, Snow Sky-Dog! Why do you make such an effort to deceive me? Your penchant for loving multiple beautiful girls simultaneously, is there anyone in this academy who doesn't know? Receiving a letter from Seraphina Frostwind, why don't you admit it to me? Does it tire you out, Snow Sky-Dog?""Sigh, big brother, why do you get easily a
"Snow Sky-Dog, Mizuchi Haruka, have you both thoroughly prepared everything needed for today's journey?" Kurogami Masayuki asked his fellow gods, his gaze filled with implications yet also with profound concern.In truth, today holds significant importance for all three of them. After a week of leisure and indulgence in various pastimes, they, as students of this academy, were embarking on a journey promised with valuable rewards but also fraught with considerable challenges. Throughout the past week, Kurogami Masayuki had spent nearly all his free time testing which liquor from the Academy of the Gods' tavern could make him forget the skies and the earth. Snow Sky-Dog, on the other hand, was no less adventurous. He spent his time bathing in the sea and drinking coffee with Mizuchi Haruka as if there were no tomorrow, then went on outdoor excursions with Seraphina Frostwind - the life of a top-ranked handsome god could be quite busy when juggling multiple beautiful women simultaneousl
Somewhere in the Youkai WorldIn a castle that exuded an air of dread, a group of rebellious youkai gathered around the most fearsome-looking youkai. This youkai sat upon the golden throne of the Youkai World. It should have belonged to Seraphina Frostwind's father, but this youkai had destroyed him and seized his position as the King of the Youkai World. Leading the rebellion, it harbored a sinister plot to seize the eight most terrifying magical artifacts scattered across all three worlds. The youkai on the throne emitted a dark aura, exerting immense pressure on the psyche of its subordinates. After a moment, it spoke:"I have been planning to overthrow the rule of the God World for a long time now, yet the progress of this plan remains at a standstill. What does this mean? If you are not a bunch of useless beings, why is this happening? Who are the three pathetic gods thwarting our plans time and time again? And what of the three dragon gods, our supposed allies, why are they inco
"Snow Sky-Dog, have you not received any letters from Seraphina Frostwind recently?" Kurogami Masayuki inquired, yet his indifference was apparent, reflected in his countenance."Kurogami Masayuki, my elder brother, I have indeed been awaiting the letters from Seraphina Frostwind these past days. However, I have waited a long, and no letter has reached me! Perhaps she has roasted the messenger pigeons she often employs to deliver letters to me!" Snow Sky-Dog chuckled, a beautiful smile adorning his face. Alas, that smile, radiant as the sunrise after a night of darkness reigning over the world, held no sway over Kurogami Masayuki's mind. Perhaps because Masayuki was a man, not Seraphina Frostwind, nor Mizuchi Haruka. (Were Snow Sky-Dog facing not Masayuki but these two girls, his enchanting smile might act as the love spell's glamorous allure, rendering its 'victims' powerless against its irresistible charm, akin to a love potion without an antidote.)"Snow Sky-Dog, you're playing 'du
"Snow Sky-Dog, Mizuchi Haruka has asked me to relay a message to you that she would like to go out with you today.""Huh? Go out? That's great! It's been so long since I went out with Mizuchi Haruka! Going out with this beautiful young lady makes me very happy!""Haizza, Snow Sky-Dog, you'll probably say similar things if Seraphina Frostwind asks you out in a few days! Loving two gorgeous girls simultaneously, you're playing with fire, my friend. Perhaps you think you're the god of ice, snow, and eternity - now you even possess the power of fire; hence, you believe you won't be harmed by playing with the emotions of 'fire' Mizuchi Haruka. But if you think so, you're gravely mistaken, Snow Sky-Dog! Because Mizuchi Haruka isn't just an ordinary flame; she's molten lava! If you hurt her in a way that she can't quietly endure anymore, I wouldn't be surprised if she burns you to ashes! And if that tragedy indeed befalls you, even if you possess the power of ten magical artifacts named 'The
"Snow Sky-Dog, you seem rather idle today, don't you? Your beautiful companions didn't invite you for a stroll?""Oh, eldest one, Kurogami Masayuki, spare me your jests! If you're feeling idle, perhaps a few drinks at the tavern, or delving into some tomes at the library would suit you better. Don't linger here to mock me further!""What do you have in your hand, Snow Sky-Dog?""It's a letter from Seraphina Frostwind. Eldest one, why concern yourself? I know your penchant for teasing, but my mood is dark today. So, taunt me now, and you may regret it!""I have no time for the trivialities of your love story! I'm focused on our mission to retrieve the eight lost magical artifacts! Does the letter speak of the sixth artifact, 'The Lamp of the Seven Stars Seizing Lives,' Snow Sky-Dog?""My dear elder, don't rush so. We'll secure 'The Lamp of the Seven Stars Seizing Lives' soon! But this letter holds no such mention.""What does it say, then, Snow Sky-Dog?""Just a reprimand from Seraphin
At the Academy of the Divine, the World of the DivineAlone in their shared room, Kurogami Masayuki held in hand a weathered tome clandestinely procured by Snow Sky-Dog from Seraphina Frostwind's abode. He endeavored to peruse it with utmost care and the highest level of concentration. Alongside him sat a freshly brewed cup of coffee, a wispy trail of smoke, and the rich aroma of top-grade coffee wafting from his cup. (It seemed as though the faint aroma of coffee was attempting to engulf the spacious room, with only Kurogami Masayuki seated within, saturating the cool air with its intensely robust fragrance.) He meticulously pored over its pages with utmost focus, his keen eyes a testament to the divine intellect of a deity ranked as the most exceptional student in the Academy of the Divine. Indeed, Kurogami Masayuki was not the first deity to peruse this tome of arcane knowledge. Before him, Snow Sky-Dog and Mizuchi Haruka had also delved into its depths with utmost mental acuity. Ye
