VOLUME 3

Chapter 11: Micchan’s (alias) Business Logbook (Part 2)

Month of __, Day ##. Sunny and clear.

Juju-sama came back!

I heard the story about her coming back from the Underworld, but then all news about her stopped coming. I thought I would never be able to behold her presence again.

As expected from the strongest Tsukuyomi Priestess in history!

Juju-sama broke all the world’s rules, overcame all obstacles, and now she’s back!

As a priestess serving the G.o.ds, I can’t really approve of what Juju-sama did.

Since ancient times, escaping from the Underworld has been considered the most sacred of taboos in this country.

It was a reckless act that even Izanagi and Izanami couldn’t succeed in and was something to be avoided.

But when I see the household head crying alligator tears and hugging Juju-sama with his cheek rubbing against hers, going “Juju-chan Juju-chan~~,” and when I see Juju-sama looking intensely displeased but still a bit happy for some reason, I couldn’t bring myself to care about the rules anymore. To be human is to twist all logic, to overturn all the myths and legends! My my, an insignificant person like me ended up thinking some quite outrageous things.

Month of %%, Day %%. Sunny, then cloudy.

Juju-sama found a certain collar.

I thought I had properly disposed of that thing too…!

She also saw how the name “Tsukuyomi Ruza” was engraved on the collar, and after intense questioning managed to get the truth out of our household head. She also easily prevented me from escaping through the window with a charm…

Juju-sama soon understood everything about the household head’s disgraceful behavior after the shrine was destroyed and how we fell into a “festering, indulgent” lifestyle (as she put it).

It’s not like we did anything worth feeling guilty over, and since Juju-sama was technically dead the household head was free to fall in love with anyone, marry anyone, do SM stuff with anyone he wanted, but “that is not the point,” she claimed as she lectured us.

Even though I didn’t do anything wrong…

But Juju-sama is so cute when she’s jealous~~. I want to just gobble her up~~. And I accidentally said all that out loud while Juju-sama was was.h.i.+ng my back at a public bath nearby, which led her to punch me without any emotion on her face and split my cheek open. The bathwater was dyed red. We were banned from the bathhouse.

Month of !!, Day ++. First storm of spring.

I asked Juju-sama what she planned to do from now on.

The household head had done a complete 180 from his depression and was now full of energy. He started getting worked up about taking back the power of the Supreme G.o.d and returning Sasami-sama to the shrine.

However, it seemed the situation wasn’t that simple. Juju-sama also hadn’t come back from the Underworld unscathed. Reincarnation? I didn’t really understand it all, but it seemed we would just stand by and quietly observe for a while.

Juju-sama had broken the rules, and it probably caused her great pain just to stay in this world.

However, I wonder what happened… Juju-sama didn’t seem to be in a hurry at all and just said that she wanted to make sure of something first.

“I said I was working for the sake of this world, for the sake of the humans living in this world… but did I really understand this world or its people as much as I claimed?”

Those were Juju-sama’s words.

“I will keep watch for a little while. Keep watch over everything. Keep watch over the world I never properly looked at while I was alive. Over this inexplicable world which that child has fallen in love with, a world which continues to tirelessly persist in the end times of this myth, a world I have sworn to protect.”

After that, Juju-sama seemed a bit uncertain.

“… Micchan, will you come with me?”

She was so cute that I couldn’t help but shoot blood from my nos… couldn’t help but to just give her an honest smile. “Of course, Juju-sama!” I answered.

The Tsukuyomi Shrine is back in business!

Let’s all work hard for the sake of the world, for the sake of the humans in that world~~.
