Big Trouble 2

"You've really wrecked this place's landscape, huh?" Lu remarked grimly as he scanned the surroundings. Fortunately, they were tactful enough to find a barren place to stage their fight.

"Care to explain, Lu~?" The bubbly Makoto asked.

"I'm leaving this to you people. Everything seems to be under control anyway." Orihime shrugged, yet it wasn't enough distraction to camouflage the other kitsune.

"You look stunning as always, Yae. I'm really looking forward to it." He praised the lady that was hiding behind the Kitsune Saiguu.

"...Yes..." The Guuji shyly replied, before tugging her mentor's back for help.

Orihime couldn't help but sigh, then teleported both of them away with her newfound abilities.

...

"Tai gong~!" The huge oni dashed towards him, and proceeded to hug him tightly.

"It's been a while~. You look much healthier now. Good for you!" She said cheerfully.

"Mmmg... Hold your horses! Gah... I'm suffocating here!" Lu pleaded to the giantess.

"Oh!... My bad, ehehe~..." She released him with a chuckle.

"I'm saved..." The deity took the chance to breath that fresh air.

"Answer Makoto's question, husband." Ei ordered in s foul mood.

"Ehem! To put it simply... This oni here is Shuten... In her divine appearance." He bluntly stated.

"Hello everyone~! Just call me Ibuki, so you won't get confused between me and that troublesome little oni." The third goddess of Inazuma greeted.

"𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘢𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶'𝘳𝘦 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘢𝘮𝘦 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘰𝘯..." Lu wryly smiled.

"What a drastic change... Is it because she got bigger?" *Clap Clap* Chiyo, you almost made me believe it.

"I thought so~! I'll go inform Kokomi-chan and the others about the situation. The resistance group might be shook due to this incident." Makoto gave him a soft kiss, before leaving to tell the divine priestess to calm down her people.

The residents of Yashiori Island have it hard...

...

"You've got two wives?! And they're twins too?! I knew you always had it in you." Ibuki smugly stated. Is that really something to be proud about?...

"I must depart as well husband. I promised Miko to... Nevermind." Ei did the same and followed her sister.

"𝘗𝘳𝘰𝘮𝘪𝘴𝘦𝘥 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵?!" It seemed like he was still not allowed to take it easy.

"What do we do now, Nii-sama? Ibuki here is way too big for the city." Chiyo inquired.

"...Can you do something about that? And just call me Lu here. Don't want the others to be confused." Lu sighed in resignation. At least they didn't barrage him with questions...

"That's no problem at all!" The four-horned oni said before turning into a kid. But there was a slight issue...

"What are you?! A crossbreed between an oni and a naga? That tail is way too long..." He lamented.

"We of the oni clan wouldn't surprise the townfolk anymore... But this... It's impossible for this to work." Chiyo examined.

"Ehh? You have bird people like the tengus here, and even other Yokais. What's the discrimination on snakes about?!" Ibuki complained. The former chieftain only kept silent.

"Sigh* I'll do what I can..." Lu muttered before giving it the best illusion spell he could. Turning her into a simple, yet dark skinned oni child.

"There... Just make sure to keep physical contact minimal."

"Great! Leave her to me, brother. I'll give her the best tour of Inazuma City!" Chiyo pleaded in good spirit.

"Okay okay... Just be careful, alright?" He had no choice but to give in.

"Where are we heading?" Ibuki asked in curiosity.

"Let's get back to Narukami Island first~! Nii-sama..."

"Yes yes, I understand... Don't reject it. *Chime*" Lu warned before he teleported the two near Tenshukaku...

...

"It will be fine, right?..." The deity muttered as he got ready to fix the landscape they had destroyed.

Raiden Lu pondered what to do next while cleaning up their mess, and decided to visit the Kanjou Commission to check their financial status.

"Makoto should already be there, right?..."

He remembered that Makoto seldom told him that she's well acquainted with the lady of the Hiiragi Clan, so he tried his luck and immediately went there.

***

"Your Majesty?! Lady Makoto hasn't returned yet, but how may I assist you?" Hiiragi Chisato, the current head of the Hiiragi Clan, asked nervously.

She immediately recognized the sudden intruder using the description the Kanjou Commissioner, Makoto, had told her. And offered to help.

"𝘚𝘩𝘦'𝘴 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘺𝘦𝘵?... 𝘈𝘸𝘬𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘥. 𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘴𝘩𝘦 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘯𝘰𝘸?..." Lu contemplated.

"Can I see the recent report for Inazuma's budget?" He asked with his usual smile.

"Understood, Your Majesty. Please wait for a moment." The lady left in a hurry.

"𝘈𝘮 𝘐 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘴𝘤𝘢𝘳𝘺?" The deity was dumbfounded by her response.

...

..

.

"I found it! Hmm? What's this?... I thought Lady Makoto gave it to him already. I should probably include it too just in case." Chisato took two sets of paper, before going back.

...

"Here you go, Your Majesty! I hope I didn't make you wait for too long..." She took a long breath, then handed it over.

"Thank you, Chisato." He simply replied with a smile.

"Right!" Chisato smiled back, and left in high spirits.

"Let's see what we have here. Hmm... A bit lower than I expected, but its still enough. What's this?" Lu scrolled through it carefully.

"Damn..." The deity cursed silently. How thoughtful of Makoto to not let him see this.

But too bad... Since someone 'accidentally' showed it to him.

"I think I'll stay in Ritou for a bit..." Lu massaged his head, and decided to stroll the place to relax. He never had time to do so ever since he arrived in this world.

"Lu, listen to me." A voice resounded in his head as he patrolled the streets of Ritou.

"Lu is here, over."

"I wanted to tell you about this earlier, but there were other people with you." Ibuki said through their connection.

"Go on..." He said with a serious tone.

"I was awoken because Shuten planned to assassinate you back when you were sick."

"Damn..." Lu cursed silently again.

The Deity of the Closed Nation can't catch a break.

Yae Miko would like that title...
