Returned from Another World, Earth Turned Out to Be Quite the Fantasy Too. Also, Losing Heroines, Stop Looking This Way. - V3 Chapter 69

Chapter 69: Interlude – “Siblings Gathered?” ①

“Amaterasu-samaaaaaaaaa!”

“Grandma Unkai!? I-I wasn’t sneaking snacks or anything!”

Amaterasu, who was lounging around in her room (which was not a sacred space), had been scrolling through a tablet while snacking. 

Startled by Unkai’s sudden entrance, she quickly hid the tablet and the candy wrappers under the bed, like a middle schooler caught reading a forbidden magazine.

“That doesn’t matter right now! Tsukuyomi-sama is here!”

“Huh?”

“I said, Tsukuyomi-sama is here!”

“What? Why?”

Amaterasu tilted her head, genuinely puzzled. 

And why wouldn’t she be? If it were Tsukuyomi, he could appear here directly without needing to bother with formalities or meet the Minazuki family.

“I’ve seated him in the guest room, but I wasn’t sure if I should bring him to your room. So I came to ask you, Amaterasu-sama.”

“I don’t really mind.”

“…Oh, right, you’re siblings. I guess it doesn’t matter if he sees this messy room. My mistake, my mistake. I’ll go get him.”

“W-Wait? I thought my room was tidy… Is this actually considered messy!?”

Amaterasu hung her head, dejected. She had cleaned her room properly. 

It was definitely tidier than her previous sacred space, but the problem was simply the amount of stuff she had.

Books, games, and sake bottles were scattered on the floor. A large trash bag filled with crushed cans sat in the corner. 

Honestly, it was a close call between messy and clean.

“Excuse me for entering, Amaterasu… Ugh.”

“My own brother sees me for the first time in ages and says ugh!?”

“I-I’m sorry. It’s just… I haven’t been in your room for a long time, and I wasn’t expecting this.”

“Wait, so this room is messy?”

“Anyway, I’m here to apologize for acting on my own in Mukaijima City the other day.”

“Did you do something?”

“I stopped that fight between our idiot brother and Natsuki-kun.”

“Oh, that.”

“To be honest, I kind of wanted to let Natsuki-kun finish him off. But even that fool of a brother is still a god, and there are some gods and followers who care about him. I didn’t want those troublemakers turning their attention to Natsuki-kun, so I stepped in.”

“I don’t really mind. Personally, I wouldn’t have cared if Natsuki had killed that jerk. But yeah, I guess that kind of thing would’ve brought a lot of trouble along with it.”

Amaterasu smiled wryly at her brother’s sense of duty.

In Mukaijima City, the one causing the most problems was definitely Susanoo. He wasn’t here to apologize for his own actions, yet Tsukuyomi, who had fixed the situation, came to apologize instead.

Her brothers hadn’t changed one bit.

“You guys are so mean… susa-susa.”

“Oh no, I’m starting to hear things.”

“…Me too. Maybe I should see a doctor.”

Amaterasu thought she saw her brother peeking through the gap in the sliding door, but she pretended not to notice.

However, slam! The door was suddenly thrown open by Unkai.

“Amaterasu-sama, Susa-susa-sama has arrived, so I let him in!”

“This old lady really knows how to go with the flow! Hey there! Your adorable little brother is here! Oh, and here’s a gift—some sake from the Yamata-no-Orochi.”

And so, the Three Noble Gods found themselves gathered together in a corner of the Minazuki household in Mukaijima City.

They’ve all gathered ☆
