Chapter 143 The Story Of The Successor II

"Your name is Izanami?" The man asked.

"You doubt me?" Izanami questioned back.

The man glanced at his students before he looked back at her, "No, there's no problem, so, my name is Hunter, so, what? is it you want?" Hunter left his students and moved closer to her.

Izanami peeked at the river with her hands behind her back, "What are those?" She raised another question as she strolled toward the group of students.

"May I see?" She asked one of the male students, using her hand to pack her hair behind her ears with her back leaned forward.

The male student immediately handed her his fishing rod, with a flustered look on his face.

"Thank you." Izanami took the rod from the male and began analyzing it with her eyes, "This is quite impressive, and you use this to catch the fish in the sea?" She asked the male student.

"Y-Yes mam." The male student stammered, causing his colleagues to laugh at him.

A smile formed on Izanami's face before she handed the fishing rod back to the boy, "I feel proud seeing you children make instruments of your own… let me lend you a hand".

Izanami began to walk inside the water, the students and even Hunter, all watched as she continued to walk further and further into the water.

She suddenly stopped when the height of the water had gotten to her stomach and her legs were slowly losing balance from the water's buoyancy.

Hunter sighed as she watched from afar, "Who is this woman anyway, from her dressing, I'm guessing she's the concubine of a demigod".

"Teacher look!" One of the students shouted.

As the student called out, Hunter's eyes widened in awe at the incredible display of power before him.

The air crackled with energy as she raised her hands towards the heavens, and the very elements obeyed her command.

The water around them began to churn and boil, rising towards the sky in a towering wave that blotted out the sun.

The sheer force of her magic was almost too much to bear, as if the very fabric of reality was bending to her will.

And then, with a flick of her wrist, the water erupted into a fountain of life, teeming with thousands of shimmering fish.

The creatures leaped and danced through the air, their scales glinting in the sunlight, before crashing down onto the ground below like a shower of stars.

The students and Hunter stood transfixed, their mouths agape in wonder at the divine power before them.

It was as if they were witnessing a miracle, a manifestation of the very forces that governed the universe itself.

At that moment, they knew without a doubt that they were in the presence of a true god.

As soon as Izanami turned to look at them, they didn't waste any time before falling to their knees and bowing their heads.

"Please accept our deepest apologies!" All the students yelled in unison.

"Please goddess, we had no idea you were a god… gods don't normally come to this part of the kingdom." Hunter said, shaking as he began sweating from the nervousness he was feeling.

Izanami looked down at them and couldn't help but feel proud when she saw how well her children's creations were.

"Raise your head." Izanami spoke out.

They slowly raised their heads but didn't dare look Izanami in the eye. The gods they knew were scary and powerful people, who could kill a person just for looking at them.

But Izanami was one who was filled with love and joy for all creation that roamed the earth. She told them to take the fishes in return she stayed with them until they arrived in the next country.

And thus their journey began, a bunch of humans riding the same horse and camel with a goddess, whose identity is unknown.

But even though they were scared of her, they were also slowly getting attached to her warm and cheering character.

So much so that Hunter even fell in love with her, it isn't weird for a human and a goddess to fall in love, but it's also seen as dirt in the eyes of higher gods.

Unwilling to keep it hidden, Hunter made up his mind to speak to Izanami and try his luck with her.

It was night time, and everyone had already fallen asleep, camped outside in a cold desert.

Hunter approached Izanami who was sitting on the sad, watching the stars and the moon with a smile on her face.

"Goddess?" Hunter called out, standing a bit further behind her.

Izanami turned to see Hunter and uttered with a smile, "Hunter, why are you not asleep, I give you my word no harm shall come to you as long as I'm here"She claimed.

"No, I'm not worried about that." Hunter said with a nervous smile before he began to walk toward her.

Once he was close, he knelt down beside her, with his head facing the ground and both his hands on his lap.

"Do you have something to tell me?" Izanami asked when she could sense the tension coming from him.

Hunter began panting heavily, every motivation he had given himself immediately vanished from his body the moment he sat down beside Izanami.

And this was starting to make Izanami worried, so she moved closer to him, "Something seems to be bothering you".

"It's just… I was wondering." Hunter closed his eyes before he finished his sentence, "Are you taken by anyone?".

"I do not belong to anyone, I belong to myself and no one else." Izanami replied with a straight face.

A sigh of relief left Hunter's mouth before he chuckled, "Then, goddess…I would like to tell you… I fell in love with you… and regardless of the circumstances I want to stay with you till the end".

"Love… you men in a romantic way?" Izanami asked, she never understood that concept of love which was her reason for coming to earth.

"Yes… I'm in love with you…romantically".
