Legend Management Bureau Chapter 156

[ … words ]

“My husband, are you really treating me like this?” Izanami said coldly. “In that case, I will kill a thousand people in your lands every single day!”

“My wife, if you do that, then I will build one thousand five hundred delivery rooms so that one thousand five hundred people are born every single day!”

Asuka Shiranui chimed in from the side, narrating as if she were telling a story:

“From then on, Izanami became the ‘Yomotsu-Okami’, the Great Goddess of the Underworld, and every day in the mortal realm of Fusang, a thousand people died, and a thousand five hundred were born…”

Everyone ignored her, watching as Izanagi lifted a massive boulder and blocked the cave entrance, ensuring Izanami could never get out. He named this boulder the ‘Chibiki Rock’.

With all this done, the group finally breathed a sigh of relief.

“Asuka, it is over now, right?”

“Of course not.” Asuka Shiranui gave Du Yu a mischievous look and chuckled. “The best part has not even started yet!”

“Oh?” Du Yu’s interest was immediately piqued. “There is more?”

Du Yu suddenly remembered Asuka Shiranui telling him that after Izanami died, Izanagi, despite being a grown man, somehow ended up having three children.

But thinking about it carefully, did that really make any sense?

Asuka Shiranui walked up to Izanagi and asked, “Izanagi, you just entered a deeply defiled place, and your body is filthy. Do you want to go wash up?”

“Defiled? Was the place I just visited very defiled?” Izanagi asked, somewhat puzzled.

“Yes, you went to the Underworld, so you are extremely dirty.”

Izanagi gave a slight nod, and in an instant, his body was covered in thick grime.

Du Yu took a closer look and nearly threw up. Izanagi’s nose was stuffed full of snot, and his eyes were completely crusted over with eye gunk.

“Holy crap…” Du Yu fought hard to suppress his nausea. When he turned his head and saw Qu Xi projectile vomiting, he instantly lost control as well. “Blergh!!”

“I truly am too dirty!” Izanagi declared. “There is a river right ahead, I will go wash up immediately!”

As soon as he spoke, a large river abruptly materialized before them, its waters churning continuously.

He then stripped off his filthy clothes, tossed them aside, and waded into the rushing river.

“Senior Du Yu, these filthy clothes that the great god Izanagi discarded will eventually turn into twelve gods,” Asuka Shiranui pointed out.

“Stop talking, I do not want to hear it…” Du Yu stared at the mud-caked clothes on the ground, almost gagging again.

They watched as Izanagi began scrubbing the grime off his body in the river. Before long, he had rubbed off long rolls of dirt, but instead of washing them away into the current, he tossed these dirt rolls onto the riverbank.

“Hey, hey, hey!” Du Yu exclaimed, covering his mouth. “Could you not be so disgusting?! Keep those rolls of body dirt to yourself, please!”

“You cannot do that!” Asuka Shiranui stopped Du Yu and picked up one of the dirt rolls from the ground. It was about as thick as a human finger and utterly revolting. “Senior Du Yu, these rolls of dirt that the great god Izanagi rubbed off during his bath total eleven in number. In the future, they will turn into eleven gods!”

“Blergh!!!” Du Yu had just managed to catch his breath, only to be struck by another wave of nausea.

Just the thought that eleven of the figures walking around the Fusang Divine Realm were formed from rolls of body dirt made him want to vomit all over again.

Zhan Qisheng frowned at Asuka Shiranui and said, “Miss Shiranui… maybe you should stop talking… If you keep going, I think Old Du might actually die.”

“What do you mean?!” Asuka Shiranui pouted. “These are the proud legends of our Fusang.”

Du Yu finally managed to calm his stomach. Wiping his mouth, he asked, “Are those three gods you mentioned born yet? Once they are born, let us get out of here!”

“Do not rush, it is almost time!”

Seeing that Izanagi was almost done washing, Du Yu figured there would not be any more repulsive scenes. He relaxed slightly and kept his eyes on the god.

They watched as Izanagi dug a massive glob of eye gunk out of his left eye and declared, “Look at this! This lump of my eye gunk is as bright as the sun! From now on, you are my child, and I name you Amaterasu!”

As he spoke, Izanagi’s giant eye crust slowly morphed into a human shape, emitting brilliant sunlight until a woman as dazzling as the sun appeared.

This was Amaterasu-Omikami.

“Qu Xi, I must be dreaming,” Du Yu muttered to himself. “We grew up listening to the myth of ‘Nuwa Creating Humanity’. Mother Nuwa did not use… eye gunk, right?”

Qu Xi gasped in horror and hurriedly shook Du Yu. “Du Yu! Pull yourself together! Stay awake! Mother Nuwa used clay to create humanity!”

Izanagi then dug another massive glob of eye gunk out of his right eye and declared, “Look at this! This lump of eye gunk is as pure and bright as the moon! From now on, you are also my child, and I name you Tsukuyomi!”

Following his words, the second glob of eye crust also transformed into a human shape, radiating an icy, pale moonlight as a woman as flawless as the moon emerged.

This was Tsukuyomi Tsukimiya.

“Hehehehehehe…” Du Yu chuckled awkwardly, looking as if his mind had snapped. “Eye gunk turning into gods… I must be dreaming… Blergh!!!”

“Dong… Dong Qianqiu, quickly bring them back!” Zhan Qisheng glanced at Izanagi. The god only had his nose left to clean. Zhan Qisheng suddenly had a very ominous premonition, and just thinking about it almost made him throw up too.

“Right, right!” Dong Qianqiu hastily ordered the staff to take action. When she glanced back, she noticed that quite a few of the Immortals were throwing up as well.

But Izanagi did not give the crowd a chance to catch their breath. He dug a massive, unidentifiable object out of his nose, held it in his palms, and proclaimed, “Look how hard it is, how dark and shiny! From now on, you are also my child, and I name you Susanoo!”

As he spoke, the pitch-black unidentifiable object shifted into a human form, and a robust, muscular man stepped forth.

This was Susanoo-no-Mikoto.

“Wonderful! The three gods of Fusang have all been born!”

“Huh? All three have been born?” Du Yu looked toward Izanagi with glazed eyes. “I missed it just now. How was the third god born?”

“Do not!” Zhan Qisheng and Qu Xi both screamed. “Absolutely do not look!”

“Assistant Dong, are you ready yet?! Get him out of here!” Zhan Qisheng urged frantically. “This kid is going to vomit his guts out.”

“It will be done in a second!”

Before Du Yu could even comprehend what was happening, his vision went black. When he opened his eyes again, he was back at the Legend Management Bureau.

“Huh?” Du Yu was taken aback. “What is going on? This is my first time entering a legend but not finishing the storyline…”

“Senior Du Yu, do you want to know?” Asuka Shiranui clapped her hands happily. “I can tell you! The third god, Susanoo, was…”

Zhan Qisheng instantly rushed over and covered Asuka Shiranui’s mouth. “Forget it, forget it. You can tell him some other time…”

Du Yu asked around, but since no one seemed willing to bring the matter up, he had no choice but to drop it.

He was somewhat confused as to why so many of the audience members, who were Immortals themselves, had also thrown up.

“Du Yu.” A woman slowly stepped in front of him, flashing him a gentle smile.

“Oh, hello there. If you like the streamer, please send some rocket gifts.” Du Yu gave the woman a polite smile and turned to leave.

However, the woman reached out and grabbed his hand.

“Huh?” Du Yu paused. “Miss, what are you doing? Please conduct yourself with dignity! I am a respectable streamer, I do not sell my body.”

“I am Gorgon Medusa,” the woman said slowly.

“Eh???”

Du Yu never expected that not only had Medusa survived to the present day, but her appearance had completely changed as well.

“Gorgon?”

“Yes.”

Seeing her current state, Du Yu did not feel any guilt. Instead, he felt as if he had done a good deed. “That is wonderful! I am so happy that you survived!”

“I am also very happy to see you again!” Medusa beamed brightly. From the look in her eyes, Du Yu knew she was not lying.

“You absolutely have to stay for a few extra days this time. Our Huaxia has so many fun things to do!”

“There is no rush for that.” Medusa shook her head with a smile. “Du Yu, my main reason for coming this time is to discuss a matter with you.”

“Discuss a matter?” Du Yu raised an eyebrow. “Why are you being so polite? Just say the word if you need my help.”

“Excellent!” Medusa exclaimed. “I did not expect you to still be so approachable even after over two thousand years. That puts my mind at ease.”

Medusa slowly extended her hand. A lightning spear materialized with the crackle of thunder. She offered it forward and said, “Please hold this for me.”

Seeing Medusa draw a weapon, the Immortals could not help but grow cautious. The Queen Mother of the West glared at her with a frosty expression.

Unsure of what was happening, Du Yu could only reach out and take the spear.

“What you are holding right now is the weapon of an ancient god from the Greek Realm. You might not remember him, but his name was Zeus. I killed him. This weapon represents the sky.”

“Uh… impressive, very impressive.” Du Yu gave a slight nod, still completely lost.

Medusa then pulled out a trident and handed it to Du Yu. “And this. Please hold this for me as well.”

Du Yu had seen this trident before; it was undeniably Poseidon’s weapon.

“This is the weapon of another ancient god from the Greek Realm named Poseidon. I killed him as well. This weapon represents the sea.”

“Er…” Du Yu had never expected that Medusa had actually slaughtered all of them. But why was she showing off her spoils of war to him one by one? Was she just flexing her wealth?

Medusa smiled, then pulled out a helmet and handed it over to Du Yu.

“This is the Helm of Invisibility belonging to Hades, the ‘King of the Underworld’. He is dead too. This weapon represents the earth. Please hold it as well.”

“I am starting to have trouble holding all of this…” Du Yu laughed awkwardly, wishing she would just get to the point.

“Wait just a moment, there is only one left.” As she spoke, Medusa pulled a shield out of thin air. “This is Athena’s shield, inlaid with her own severed head. Any attack directed at me will instead strike her beautiful face. This is my revenge against her.”

“…”

Du Yu accepted the shield, still unable to fathom what Medusa was trying to accomplish.

“Du Yu, these items represent all of my glory. Aside from Zeus’s spear, which I am only lending you temporarily, I am giving the rest to you as a gift.”

“Huh??” Du Yu was stunned. “Wait, why are you giving them to me? You should just keep them. Giving them to me is a complete waste.”

“I want you to use these items to kill the rulers of all factions and unify the entire Huaxia Divine Realm. From then on, you and I will stand at the very pinnacle of the Divine Realm.”
