"If it were that simple, Izanami-sama would have gotten rid of it long ago."

Chao Wuling responded.

The girl was as light as the elementary school student he carried on his back not long ago.

He lifted her up.

"Izanami-sama, haven't you considered killing all the shrines and temples in the Kinki area?"

Asagiri Suzu: "The first ceremony is a festival held once every seven months by the Ainu people."

"Yeah."

It seems that Izanami has already made a similar attempt, and as a result, religious institutions in the Kinki area inherited the god's will, and the frequency of rituals was shortened from seven months to every day.

"It's so heartless." Zonggu said calmly, "Is there no other way?"

Asagiri Suzu said nothing.

The further away from the station, the deserted the road becomes.

This is a rural place by Lake Biwa. The nightlife is not on the road, but in the izakayas on the roadside.

The dim street lights in the alley brought back memories of the afternoon.

"At dusk, I remembered something."

Zonggu stared at the brightest point in the middle of the street lamp, as if this could bring him back to the moment when he leaned out of the window and looked at the setting sun.

"Before I saw the teacher's illness for the first time, Ling once wanted to stop me."

This was only two years ago, and both of us remember it clearly.

"Um."

"Before that, was Ling anxious about something... or angry?"

"..."

She looked at his profile and said, "I don't remember."

"Yeah."

Zong Gu didn't ask any more questions. If she didn't want to speak, it would be useless to say anything.

He was suddenly curious: Has she always looked like this for more than twelve hundred years?

"What were Suzu and Izanami-sama doing before they came to the children's welfare home?"

"travel."

"travel?"

"Every hundred years, teachers leave Japan and travel around the world."

Soya tilted his head, "Are Suzuya coming with you?"

She looked into his eyes and said, "Yeah."

He looked ahead again, "Where have you been?"

"Anywhere."

"Really...that's right, after all, you have plenty of time. What about the latest one?"

As if remembering the feeling of coldness, Asagiri Suzu hugged him tighter.

"Antarctica."

"...It's really amazing." Zonggu couldn't help but marvel, "How did you get there?"

"Planes and ships."

She pressed against the side of his neck, "In the winter of 2011, I departed from Japan, flew to Argentina, and then took a cruise ship from Ushuaia Port, crossed the Drake Strait, and landed on the Antarctic Peninsula."

"Is it a cruise...how long does it take?"

"About two days." Chaogiri Ling said, "I waited for the right landing weather, and I waited three more days."

"After landing, the teacher took me away from the team and wandered around the Antarctic continent for more than a year."

"..."

Soya was speechless as she continued to tell how Izanami landed in Antarctica with a large ship of spirits, then built a snow fort on the unreachable ice field, hunted various Antarctic animals, and monopolized that area

Ice and snow...

"Later, the teacher got tired of it and returned to Japan."

People were walking, clouds were drifting, and the moon was disappearing and appearing. When Soya carried Asagiri Suzu back to the courtyard of Kirino's old house, the journey to Antarctica she said was over.

"Where will you be in a hundred years?"

"have no idea."

After opening the sliding door and walking into the entrance hall, Sogu put her down.

"How is your foot? Does it still hurt?"

Chao Wu Ling shook his head.

"Yes, that's good."

Zonggu was about to take a shower, but when he heard the sound of the TV coming from the direction of the living room, he remembered that there was a god waiting at home.

"..."

Tsukuyomi was lying on the ground. After seeing him, he stretched out his hand feebly, looking extremely weak.

"Why did you come back..."

Zonggu was startled and quickly went over to help him up.

"what happened?"

Tsukuyomi opened his mouth, his voice was weak, and his chest deflated.
