Chapter 581
"What the hell is going on... I always feel that life is getting more and more magnificent." With a strong helplessness on his face, Kusanagi Goto looked ahead with a wry smile, sighed, and walked along the stone steps towards the high ground on the mountain.
Shiba Park is not far from Tokyo Tower, but it is located near high-end hotels and schools, TV stations and radio stations, as well as embassies and other buildings. There are many beautiful shrines and temples. In this area, there are many trails, almost facing the streets, but if you don’t know, it is very easy to be ignored.
At least in the past, Kusanagi Godo had only heard of this area, but had never been to it in person. And if it were normal, he wouldn't be interested in such a place. After all, if he wanted to go to the park, he didn't need to come here. If he wanted to go to the shrine, it would be even more funny. Is he a god-killing demon king going to smash the venue?
——But now, he still came here.
The reason is probably when school was over yesterday afternoon, I happened to be walking on the atrium outside the school building and I was called to me. The girl seemed to be the number one beauty in the high school department where she was. It is said that she was also a senior of her sister's Tea Ceremony Department. Even in the middle of the country, there are also high-rated beauties, and her grades are often among the top five in the school year...
But this is not the point. The point is that the other party is still a witch, and he has the power of a curse, and he is obviously a person in the magic world. In this way, she suddenly came to find herself, right?
Although he did not have much vanity after seeing the unprecedented catastrophe of God and escaped by chance. But Kusanagi Kodo also knew that although the God Slayer was depreciated recently, he was indeed the only demon king on this island country, so it is normal to have such an understanding.
The god-killer is the overlord, the devil king, and the king. It makes people fear and respect because it is the demon king who makes no one on earth unable to resist its power and dominance, but it is also the king who protects humanity from the hands of those gods who do not follow it. It is both the king who initiates turmoil and the king who suppresses turbulent times.
——The same existence, different nature, although there are contradictions, but not conflicts.
Just when he recalled the other party's expression of looking around and vague words at that time, the young man couldn't help but sigh. Although he didn't know what he was called to come for, he always felt that it was definitely not a good development. After standing in Zhi Park on the subway, he first looked for a nearby map, but fortunately there was a good guide board in front of the station.
During yesterday's conversation, Kusanagi Godo learned that the appointment was the first time a shrine that heard the name was a shrine. Although I checked the nearest station and the approximate route after I went back, it was still a bit difficult to get there easily, because I had never been to this place before.
"Why should I be in the shrine? There should be a place that is easier to meet... I am a student from the same school, wouldn't it be better to be in some place in the school?"
——Although Kusanagi Godo had such complaints at the beginning, he also knew that it was likely to involve extremely dangerous and strange things. The girl Yuri Tani chose to interview him outside the school, and should have considered that she would not involve other innocent students.
After all, it was because of a broken cup that was rolled to the United States, and then witnessed with his own eyes the power dominated by monsters that were even more inhuman than the so-called god killers and the gods who did not follow. Especially after those perverts burst out with the energy of destruction in the face of the conflict and trampled and sunk a continent and the countries on it directly, he would no longer take it lightly for matters involving the realm of great consciousness.
After all, the world is still in dire straits, hurricanes, tsunamis, earthquakes, volcanic bursts... and so on. Various natural disasters are emerging one after another, and the scope of impact is no longer limited to certain geological zones, climate zones, temperature zones, etc., but are all messed up.
The temperature season and all other natural laws and astronomical climates can be considered completely chaotic. Some places in the Sahara Desert may have rained heavily for two consecutive days, while the flow in the Amazon River Basin may have dried up by more than half...
Destroying all the power that swept through all things, such terrible aftermaths, can fully explain the problem. This is an unprecedented era. Even the senior seniors in the world of spells cannot explain clearly what these changes are and why such terrible disasters occur. We can only barely speculate that it is the return of ancient gods, and the previous demon kings awaken one after another... and so on.
There is no reliable theory and no evidence to prove it. However, such statements have been supported by many people, not because they are unstable. After all, people always need to find an acceptable reason to convince themselves, and people can only choose what they like to see and hear to believe, and what is not good for them is bad things.
The so-called subjective and objective is nothing more than this. Because people have to deceive themselves and cannot let themselves live in the background of fear. If they cannot change the environment, they can only change themselves. Give themselves a reason to make themselves feel that the environment is actually acceptable and not that bad...
Kusanagi Godo asked the cold young man about this. After all, both sides were people who could speak. However, Bai Qi just shook his head and did not tell him even if it was just a few words. He only hinted that he should not get too involved. Whether he didn't want to say it or couldn't say it, Kusanagi Godo couldn't know any valuable information anyway.
But what do you think about so much? Isn’t it the best result to survive? At least he and Erica survived and did not accompany the United States to bury themselves at the bottom of the sea... I thought in my mind that Kusanagi Godo walked step by step towards the stone steps. He keenly noticed some incompatible places in the surrounding environment. After all, these two days were either hurricanes or earthquakes. If it weren’t for Kyoto, I’m afraid even the government functions would have to be stopped, let alone schools...
Along the way, there were cracked concrete pavements everywhere, and all the eyes were filled with collapsed houses and houses. Even the terrain in many places had been completely changed, and the rest was barely accessible. This is why Kusanagi Godo took so much time to explore, because several roads planned before were not accessible.
However, after approaching the Sakao Shrine...
Whether it was the stone steps, the mountains, or even the surrounding woods, they seemed to be intact as always, as if they were not attacked by any natural disasters. At least he could not see any obvious post-disaster scene, which was 200 steps, which was very high for the stone steps in the city center, and there was not even a crack.
——Can this place not even be shaken by an earthquake?
With such doubts, the young demon king finally gasped and climbed the last stone steps and came to the Seven-Yuan Shrine on the high ground. Looking at the shrine that was not trapped in the guardian forest but surrounded by green trees, his originally chaotic mood calmed down without realizing it.
...
...
The Seven-Yuan Shrine.
In the courtyard, not far from the front hall, there is a shrine office built with a bungalow. In that room, Yuri Manriya was dressed up, wearing white clothes and a red kimono skirt, with long hair facing the mirror. Her expression was a little unconcealed by the fatigue, but her eyes were filled with joy.
The past two days, she followed Lord Kikyo out to save lives and heal the wounded. Although she was a little tired, she felt very fulfilled, at least she felt more meaningful and valuable than the previous witch life. Moreover, under Kikyo's words and deeds, her spiritual skills have also increased very quickly, and she has also learned a lot of herbal knowledge.
If Yuri Miriya was able to rely on spell power and related spiritual techniques to heal the target's injuries, now he can deal with most of the less severe external injuries through herbs, and such progress is huge.
At this moment, she suddenly noticed something, her face changed slightly, and then she exclaimed in a low voice. Finally, she found that she had forgotten something, and quickly put down her comb, quickly sorted out her outfit in the mirror and confirmed that there was no rudeness. Then she turned around and walked to the door and pushed the door out a few steps.
On the way to the front hall, Kusanagi Godo passed by several clergymen. The Demon King could only respond with greetings to them with his head down. However, he was strangely aware that there seemed to be no other clergymen in the shrine. Even the few people who had just passed by him seemed to be just temporary workers, or people who just came to do something and left after they finished doing it - because those people walked directly to Torii and then went down the stone steps.
Before Kusanagi Godo could figure out what was going on, he saw Yuri Miriya wearing a witch suit. The girl stood quietly next to the road ahead, as if she had been waiting for a long time. It was definitely not a gentlemanly demeanor to let the girl wait, so he quickly stepped forward.
"Welcome to you, Lord Kusanagi Godo. Call you as Campione, please forgive me for your rudeness." The witch lowered her head deeply and bowed. The white clothes and the red kimono group were very conspicuous.
"Ah, it doesn't matter...but are you also a magician? I have only seen it in Europe and other places abroad before. It's the first time I met my companion in Japan." Kusanagi Kodo scratched the back of his head at a loss. After thinking about it, he could only say this.
"Yes... I think you may have misunderstood, but you don't have much mistakes in understanding that. I am a witch guarding Musashino, working in this shrine. However, I also know some knowledge of spells." Yuri Tani nodded seriously, then said, reaching forward and doing a move to lead Kusanagi Godo to the front hall of the shrine.
After Kusanagi Godo nodded, he looked around and asked casually as he followed the witch forward, "So that's it... But is there something wrong with me coming here this time? Or is it that our country also has magic associations?!" He said this and his heart moved, but in a flash he gave up that unrealistic idea. Even he himself was helpless about such a global disaster. He could only wait for himself to weaken, slow down and reduce the intensity. So what can cricket magic associations?
So he decisively started another topic again and diverted his attention: "...but there is only Miss Wanligu here? Is there no other person?"
If possible, I really want others to be present. It is too difficult for him to be alone with such a beautiful girl. Until now, he felt that the girls he could talk and get along with were only his sister besides Erica. However, the former has temporarily returned to China for some reasons that everyone knows, and the latter has finally gotten rid of it and did not follow him.
"This..." Yuri Manriya stopped in front of the door and turned to look at him with a strange expression. "Mr. Kusanagi, I think you misunderstood something. It's not me who really wants to see you... Another adult."
"Uh..." Kusanagi Godo was stunned, and then he walked into the front hall in confusion along the little witch's fingers. Then he saw a blue figure that was not too familiar but absolutely impressed, and immediately took a breath of air conditioning.
"It's you?!"
"Well, I haven't seen you for a long time, I'm still alive..." Pei Chen put down the yellowed ancient scroll in his hand, turned around and smiled cheerfully at Kusanagi Goto standing at the door, greeted him enthusiastically, or cursed with malicious intentions.
Before Kusanagi Godo could be shocked, he heard such malicious words, and his expression immediately became distorted, making people feel sour when they looked at it. "Well, why are you here? Could it be that you are the god of this country?" He asked in disbelief, with both surprise and shock in his eyes.
In order to pursue the origin and myth of this person, Erica and he spent a lot of time and effort, and because of the other party's characteristics, they all focused on the Middle Earth China. However, the myth system in that Eastern country was very numerous and chaotic, and even the people in their own country could not handle it, so they had no idea.
But now...
"Why, you're thinking too much..." Pei Chen waved his hand and then signaled Kusanagi Gudo to come over, "I'm not a god in this country, I just subjugated them and replaced them temporarily... Well, everyone has precious time. This time I asked you to come here, there is indeed one thing that needs your help, so I'm not polite..."
In a sense, it is really an unsettling speech.
The boy was choked, and then smiled helplessly and said, "... Then please say." What else can he say? The guy in front of him has always been unrestrained. Maybe the power of the gods is amazing, but he doesn't know it, but it is obviously not an enemy that he can fight against now. This kind of god who has always maintained rationality and has been hovering on the earth, and even the gods who cannot tell whether they are not obedient is definitely the most dangerous guy.
Just like the group of people who fought on the other side of the ocean a few days ago, there were many such gods among them. So Kusanagi Koto had reason to suspect that he would definitely be among the people who sank the land of North America and destroy the United States.
"How to say..." The monster pondered for a moment, glanced out the door without a trace, "I have been busy with something for the past two days, well, something that is very related to the nature of your identity... but I found that there is a big and small problem. I seem to lack tools specifically for that matter..."
"Tool?" Kusanagi Kodo repeated the sentence uncertainly, while stirring his brains to the greatest extent and as fast as possible, thinking about what exactly it was. However, the next second he found that he had no need to think like this, because the other party had already said it lightly.
"Or it is a certain form of power, a concept like using treasures to God."
"Yes, it's useful to God?" The boy widened his eyes and his expression was stiff.
The monster nodded repeatedly and confirmed that he was not wrong: "Yes, it is specifically targeted at the power of the gods... You should have this understanding. For example, the sacred weapons have a greater killing effect on targets such as evil, which is the power of the evil; the winner of life has critical damage to single nobles, and bringing your girlfriend to the dog treasure..."
"...Well, I feel like you said something strange." Kusanagi Godo said weakly with his hands raised.
"That doesn't matter, as long as you understand it."
Pei Chen looked straight into Kusanagi's eyes, and the clock's pupils seemed to turn into a bottomless vortex that could devour people's souls: "So, I'm very interested in the power to cut off the divine nature, that is, the spirit of your golden sword... In exchange, I will give you the power to break through all tangible things."
