"Takemikazuchi I know it's you!" Aphrodite practically screamed at her phone. The woman face distorted as veins popped in her eyes her hair flying around.
"Yar yar yar, what do you want Aphrodite? I'm quite busy you know."
In a traditional Japanese room Takemikazuchi was laying on his side reading manga. He was so lazy that he didn't bother to stop reading as he spoke to Aphrodite.
Knowing the lazy god, Aphrodite didn't believe for a second that he was truly busy.
The day this god was busy was either during the literal end of the world or war. Takemikazuchi although was a war hungry battle junky he was quite stagnant. He would either train or relax in his room.
Most likely he was doing something he was interested in or lying on his back asleep. If only she knew how right she was at that moment.
"Cough", moving on.
"I need you to train my friend, can you do it?" Aphrodite asked, ignoring the crunching sounds coming from Takemikazuchi. "Hmmmfdsmmsm" A weird wound was heard from the phone.
"Can you stop chewing before you speak" Aphrodite narrowed her eyes, she knew that this god didn't care about anything other than his entertainment and his sword.
Hearing a hard swallow and a contented sigh from the phone Aphrodite felt her patience being tested. Veins snapped across her beautiful face, just before she completely lost it a serious voice was heard. "Who do you want me to train?"
Takemikazuchi asked seriously, the mere idea that he will have the opportunity to mould a potential warrior was quite interesting. It has been a few decades since he last took in a student.
"She is my friend, her name is Ema. Just a warning: I will kill you if you try to lay a hand on her."
Hearing Aphrodite Takemikazuchi broke out in a cold sweat, hearing he would have a female disciple was quite exciting. Who knows maybe he would finally have some female attention in a few hundred years.
Yes the god was somewhat of a recluse, he mainly trained and cared for his entertainment. He gave up chasing Kichijoten, his pantheon's goddess of beauty.
He tried to chase the goddess a few hundred years back but was heartbroken when she and Susanoo got together.
"You have my word Aphrodite, I won't lay a hand on her, so relax ok?" Aphrodite only remained silent, this silence made Takemikazuchi panic.
He didn't want to curse into impotence. "I swear that I will not do anything funny with her, I swear it on Amaterasu Omikami." Aphrodite sighed and continued "Ok I will trust you.... For now"
