After receiving the command from the Water Deity of the Gods, the three young deities, Snow Sky Dog, Kurogami Masayuki, and Mizuchi Haruka, swiftly flew off to fulfill the assigned mission. They soared over the vast ocean and reached the southern forest.

Touching down in the southern forest, where the rebellious youkai emanated a dark power, they found themselves in the habitat of these creatures. Despite being a dwelling place for youkai, the forest appeared beautiful and romantic. It was autumn, and golden leaves covered the forest, evoking a poetic atmosphere.

"We've arrived, my companions!" Kurogami Masayuki spoke with a vigilant tone.

"I wonder how important this mission is that our master assigned it to all three of us," Mizuchi Haruka questioned.

"Of course, it's crucial, my dear sister! If it weren't important, our master wouldn't have sent all three of us to this desolate and dull forest!" Snow Sky-Dog nonchalantly replied.

"Desolate and dull? How can you say that? You lack an artistic soul! I find this forest enchanting and romantic," Mizuchi Haruka retorted, teasingly and resolutely.

"Do you feel that way? In that case, when I marry you, we'll live in this romantic and enchanting forest! Do you find my idea interesting, flower princess?" Snow Sky Dog teased back.

"Enough, both of you! Stop talking about love all the time. I'm getting sick of your intense romance!" Kurogami Masayuki said, whether in genuine annoyance or jesting with his friends was unclear.

"Oh! Someone is jealous! Big brother, you should support Snow Sky Dog and me being in love. Or do you see Snow Sky-Dog as a rival?" Mizuchi Haruka teased Kurogami Masayuki, clearly enjoying provoking him.

"As if I would be jealous of you two! Let me make it clear, because I'm not as promiscuous as a snow wolf if I wanted to, a hundred goddesses, all more beautiful than Mizuchi Haruka, would surround me as a normal occurrence," Kurogami Masayuki exaggeratedly asserted his charm.

"Are you implying a hundred goddesses surrounding you to beat you up, right?" Snow Sky-Dog joined in the banter.

"Snow wolf, you know nothing! Do you think you're the only handsome god here? You're just a study failure skilled at seducing women," Kurogami Masayuki fiercely retorted to Snow Sky Dog's teasing.

"Ha, ha, but I like Snow Sky-Dog just the way he is! As for you, Kurogami Masayuki, big brother, you're strong, but you're not as interesting as my snow wolf. Isn't that right, Snow Sky Dog, the one I love?" Mizuchi Haruka defended Snow Sky Dog.

"I hope the youkai eat you up." Kurogami Masayuki spoke, with a tone that was half irritation and half jest.

While the three friends were having a lively conversation, a menacing sound approached them. The threatening sound tore through the cheerful and peaceful atmosphere in the forest.

"Humph, the world of the gods is truly lacking capable individuals, which is why they sent three fools like you to deal with our youkai!"

All three friends turned their gaze towards the source of the voice. Strangely and frighteningly, the one emitting the intimidating sound was a youkai dragon. Its appearance was bizarre, and it radiated a dark aura.

"Hey, arrogant youkai dragon! You're not the first one to comment on us like that. But let me tell you, those who mock us like you, end up regretting it!" Snow Sky-Dog showed no fear of the youkai dragon, his eyes expressing determined and terrifying courage. This was the opportunity for him to make a significant achievement, and he wouldn't miss it.

"Snow Sky Dog, I leave this youkai dragon to you. Show it how strong you are and make it regret uttering those words," Kurogami Masayuki encouraged Snow Sky-Dog sincerely, with hope shining in his eyes.

"I know, big brother, rest assured, I'll 'take care' of this youkai dragon very well. If it dared to offend us, it's sure to regret it!" Snow Sky-Dog resolutely replied.

The youkai dragon scoffed at Snow Sky Dog.

"A weakling deserves contempt! Today, I, Ryujin, Dragon Deity of the Sea, will reveal to you the truth of your incompetence."

A strange light flashed, pulling the three friends into a parallel dimension. This was the magic creating a parallel world by Ryujin, the Dragon Deity of the Sea. Now, the three found themselves in a vast arena surrounded by the sea. Snow Sky Dog spoke to Kurogami Masayuki and Mizuchi Haruka:

"Both of you go up to the stands of this colossal arena to observe me defeat this youkai dragon. Rest assured, I won't lose!"

Kurogami Masayuki and Mizuchi Haruka flew up to the stands, taking their seats to watch the battle between Snow Sky Dog and Ryujin.

The battle began with an icy wind from Snow Sky Dog, creating massive ice blocks around the arena, sent rapidly toward Ryujin. Ryujin responded with a powerful strike from his hand, manipulating colossal waves to counter the incoming ice blocks. The clash of the power of snow and the power of the sea created a magnificent and spectacular confrontation.

Snow Sky-Dog agilely leaped over the waves, slid on the ice blocks, and used his icy sword to create powerful snowstorms. Ryujin retaliated by using the surrounding water to form towering walls, impeding the force of the snowstorm. The atmosphere grew tense as both sides exerted maximum effort.

Snow Sky-Dog suddenly intensified the chilling wind to a terrifying level, creating a thick layer of snow covering the ground. Ryujin struggled to avoid slipping on this snow layer. Seizing the opportunity, Snow Sky-Dog created a colossal ice column thrusting towards Ryujin. The youkai dragon had to use his hand to block, but the ice column pushed him back a step.

Seizing the moment, Snow Sky-Dog rushed in, generating a powerful snowstorm that engulfed Ryujin. He tried to regain his strength, but the relentless snowstorm weakened him. Finally, a fierce blow from Snow Sky-Dog knocked Ryujin down, causing him to collapse and shiver on the ground.

Wanting to conclude the battle quickly, Snow Sky-Dog raised his hand, preparing for a decisive strike, but Ryujin quickly retreated. While fleeing, a soul gem fell from Ryujin's pouch, and he had no mood to retrieve it.

Feeling Ryujin's defeat, Snow Sky-Dog quickly returned and informed Kurogami Masayuki and Mizuchi Haruka in the stands.

"Look, my companions! We have won this battle, and now we have the soul gem. Chase after Ryujin and retrieve it before he has a chance to recover!"

All three friends pursued the defeated Youkai dragon. However, after a while, Ryujin vanished from their sight. But most importantly, in this mission, they had successfully obtained the four-soul gem.

    "This is the Four Soul Star Gem?" Mizuchi Haruka asked in astonishment, turning to Snow Sky Dog and Kurogami Masayuki. Perhaps this goddess had never seen such a beautiful gem, radiating such a strange power."That's right, little sister!" Snow Sky Dog replied confidently with a high-pitched tone. "We've got the magical item that our master wanted! Now, I wonder what our master will reward us for our efforts.""How about a wedding between me and you, snow wolf?" Mizuchi Haruka suggested, her enchanting eyes exchanging glances with Snow Sky Dog."Well, that sounds perfect! In that case, my wife will be a princess of flowers, beautiful and graceful," Snow Sky-Dog responded, countering the enchanting gaze of the flower princess with a beautiful smile. Perhaps Snow Sky-Dog looked most handsome when he playfully teased women. Perhaps his captivating smile was the most potent weapon, leaving a lasting impression on the hearts of the women he encountered."Enough, snow wolf! On the days you d

With me and the big brother protecting you, no youkai would dare to bully my beloved," Snow Sky-Dog teased Mizuchi Haruka with an expressive voice and a charming smile."You stop it right there, snow wolf! We didn't come to this forest for sightseeing! All you seem to know is to charm women. Is seducing women the only thing you're good at? Besides women, is there anything else your mind can hold?" Kurogami Masayuki raised his voice, perhaps still unsettled since killing the lion youkai."Don't be angry, big brother! The snow wolf is just joking a bit, big brother doesn't need to be angry like that! The three of us are not only close friends but

Kurogami Masayuki exclaimed excitedly as the dawn bathed the academy in a vibrant red hue."Too noisy, big brother! I'm still sleeping!" Mizuchi Haruka, still lying in bed with the blanket pulled up, protested. Perhaps, the princess of the flower tribe was always the one to wake up the latest among the trio of friends."Hey, do you want me to pull your blanket? Wake up for me!" The comedic play between Kurogami Masayuki and Mizuchi Haruka continued in the Academy of Gods. Every morning, Kurogami Masayuki was the first to wake up, while Mizuchi Haruka always wanted to sleep as much as possible. Each time Kurogami Masayuki woke up, he wanted to wake up the sleepy princess of the flower tribe. In turn, Mizuchi Haruka resisted by trying to continue sleeping, ignoring all the noise and other efforts made by Kurogami Masayuki to make her wake up.

The new world unfolded before Snow Sky Dog's eyes, promising an adventure he had long awaited.Outside, the sun cast warm rays, embellishing the magnificent natural scenery. Snow Sky-Dog chose a lush green grassy spot where he could sit and enjoy the freedom and tranquility of the surroundings. A gentle breeze swept through, making the green grass dance with the wind. The fresh green carpet, accompanied by the gentle sound of rustling leaves, created a beautiful and serene natural painting.As the sunset began to manifest, a canvas of pink and deep orange hues gradually intermingled with the blue-green tones of the grass and sky. Snow Sky-Dog immersed himself in the mystery of this moment, the sunset capturing the last light of the day, enhancing the whiteness of his snow-like fur.In the tranquil natural pain

    At the Academy of Gods"Wow, it's morning already! I, Kurogami Masayuki, am always the first god to wake up in this academy!" Kurogami Masayuki exclaimed. Then, he proceeded to do his usual task, waking up the sleeping princess, Mizuchi Haruka. However, when he glanced at Mizuchi Haruka's sleeping bed, he discovered that the sleeping princess had already awakened before him."Hey, Mizuchi Haruka...""Quiet, idiot! Don't call my name!" Mizuchi Haruka angrily replied. Then, from her eyes, flowed a stream of sparkling white tears. She cried and said, "Big brother, help me! It's not that I woke up early, but I couldn't sleep all night.""What? You didn't sleep all night?" Kurogami Masayuki asked in surprise."It's that snow wolf! It treated me terribly! Big brother, please help me!" Mizuchi Haruka cried while speaking."Haizza, is the snow wolf seducing women again?" Kurogami Masayuki responded with a tone of boredom."That's right, big brother!

    "The battle he mentioned?" "A battle he couldn't share with anyone else?" Snow Sky-Dog spoke like that? Are you sure about this, Mizuchi Haruka?" Kurogami Masayuki asked in surprise."I'm not entirely sure about the truth behind these words, but indeed, the snow wolf said so to me!" Mizuchi Haruka said with a confident attitude."Well, this is truly difficult to judge and deduce! The more I think about it, the more complicated it seems." Kurogami Masayuki couldn't hide his concern, and his eyes and tone revealed this."I have a hypothesis about the truth hidden behind this, elder brother, do you want to hear it?" Mizuchi Haruka said in a very soft voice."If you have a hypothesis, then please tell me!" Kurogami Masayuki seemed impatient as Mizuchi Haruka tried to maintain an air of mystery."In my opinion, it's entirely possible that the master has assigned some mysterious and crucial task to that snow wolf. Perhaps in that task, seducing that human girl is necessary and obligatory bec

If you continue to be this slow, I'm afraid that by the time you're done, the Human World Lantern Festival might already be over!" Kurogami Masayuki lost his patience, urging Mizuchi Haruka."Be a little patient, big brother! It takes time for women to do their makeup and choose outfits! You should get used to it! In the future, when you have a girlfriend, you won't be surprised and will quickly adapt to it." Mizuchi Haruka replied, her voice echoing from the dressing room, while she calmly and carefully selected the most beautiful and fashionable clothes, ignoring Kurogami Masayuki's impatience. Kurogami Masayuki had been waiting for over an hour, and he was growing impatient."I understand that, but I'm just worried that if you take too long with your makeup and outfit, the lantern festival might end, and we won't be able to meet that

    At the Academy of the Divine Beings Kurogami Masayuki still woke up early as usual, despite having attended the lantern festival with Mizuchi Haruka in the human world until late at night. Perhaps this deity was always full of energy, allowing him to wake up so early. He scanned the room in search of the sleeping beauty, Mizuchi Haruka. Strangely enough, the flower princess was sitting there, waiting for Kurogami Masayuki to say something. "Big brother, did I perform well yesterday?" Mizuchi Haruka asked anxiously, her eyes blinking, and within those eyes were the purity and innocence of her first love with Snow Sky Dog. "Younger sister, you performed very well yesterday!" Kurogami Masayuki sincerely complimented. His expression showed deep concern for the goddess he considered a younger sister. "So, did you find me beautiful at the lantern festival yesterday?" Mizuchi Haruka asked, eagerly awaiting the answer from her elder brother, Kurogami Masayuki. "Very beautiful. You we

Their ranks include a formidable horde of Ala. These creatures are numerous and fierce! So numerous that even the bravest souls, upon witnessing their sheer numbers, would find themselves gripped by an insurmountable fear. This is the mightiest and most numerous force of Hell's faction, led by "Demon Dragon" Kamui. (It can be said that the King of Demons has no choice but to rely on this army of mythical creatures.

    Kitsune Youkai Hoshiko Tsukino was imprisoned in a dark dungeon of a fortress with exceptionally advantageous defenses. Naturally, this fortress belonged to Lilith Nocturna. (Indeed, she had numerous territories and commanded many legions of mythical creatures!) Within the fortress, a vast army of Valravn stood guard, defending the stronghold. (Valravn are not feeble creatures. Yet perhaps, after suffering many fierce defeats, Lilith Nocturna had no choice but to rely on these less formidable minions of hers!) The fortress sat atop a rocky mountain peak, surrounded by vast expanses of air, with a deep abyss below.Lilith Nocturna believed that only Snow Sky-Dog could lead an assault on her, commanding his alliance of mythical creatures to challenge her formidable defenses. In her view, Snow Sky-Dog’s forces were the only ones capable of breaching such a strategically advantageous stronghold!

    From that fateful night, the night Kitsune Youkai Hoshiko Tsukino would never forget for the rest of her life. Snow Sky-Dog had unflinchingly rejected her offer to "serve" him in bed. Snow Sky-Dog was clear-headed enough to realize that on that crucial, unforgettable night, the Kitsune Youkai named Hoshiko Tsukino had used the "bedroom lover’s game" to trap him. Yet, not only did Snow Sky-Dog avoid the trap, but he also performed an act of extraordinary nobility, drawing immense admiration from anyone who witnessed it. He neither grew angry nor was disturbed when Hoshiko Tsukino undressed herself completely in front of him, baring her body to share ultimate pleasure in the bedroom. What shocked Hoshiko Tsukino the most was that not only did Snow Sky-Dog resist the temptation to lay her down on the bed (even though the undeniable beauty of her unveiled form was unmatched by any standard), but he also courteously redressed her, piece by piece, with the very clothes she had shed."The on

After being haunted for quite a long time by the mesmerizing beauty of Lilith Nocturna's perfectly sculpted, masterpiece-like body, when it was unveiled from any covering cloth; Snow Sky-Dog had since become immune to the allure of women with such exquisite forms!

But perhaps, the Kitsune Youkai, Hoshiko Tsukino, also possessed a body that could rival the enchanted form of Lilith Nocturna!
