As the savior, I only want to play single-player games.

“You really should come and see me.” After all, this came from him.

Yuzuru was silent for a moment, then asked, "...How is Suzuka?" She hesitated for a long time before finally choosing to start the conversation on this topic.

She's not here.

"Where did you go?"

"She became a shrine maiden at the Ise Grand Shrine."

Yuzuru Nishimiya was very surprised, as this shrine held a very special place in Japan.

"You sent her to become a witch?"

"It has nothing to do with me. This is her path, and I have no right to interfere."

Nishimiya Yuzuru said blankly, "She trusts you a lot." She couldn't understand why Tendo Kagura was willing to let Ise Suzuka go to the shrine.

Now, in her eyes, anything related to God is a bad thing.

Kagura Tendo shook her head: "I can't keep her by my side. I hope she can live an ordinary life, but things didn't go as planned. She will eventually go where she is meant to go."

Moreover, what he faces is even more dangerous.

Upon hearing this, Yuzuru was taken aback. What exactly was the place he should go?

She seemed to understand something and whispered, "Is that so? Is this my fate?"

“I gave the Shadow Crystal to Suzuka, and she chose to give it to you. Fate itself is unpredictable. Neither you nor she are destined to follow the path you desire. As soon as the wind blows, you will deviate from your original destiny. If the wind blows again, things will change. This is inevitable.”

May all gods swiftly come to my aid; if anyone disobeys, I will subdue Fengdu. Chapter Ninety-Two: The Routine of the Underworld

Upon hearing this, Nishimiya Yuzuru inexplicably recalled the photos that Tendo Kagura had once taken.

She was like a silhouette, half of her body disappearing into the darkness.

The vibrant, eerie, and chaotic colors of Suzuka in Ise reminded her of the Fool in the Tarot.

That photo was striking and had a unique sense of mystery.

She thought Tendo Kagura's photography was excellent at the time, but now that she thinks about it, it seems to have a deeper meaning.

"You knew this would happen all along, didn't you?" Her mind was calm, and the cheerful and smiling girl image she had shown in front of Tendo Kagura had completely disappeared.

That's just her nature—cool, somewhat assertive, like a lone wolf; it's her way of protecting herself.

“No outcome is predetermined, and prophecies can be inaccurate,” Kagura Tendo said, looking at Yuzuru Nishimiya.

This girl has exceptional talent.

His extraordinary talent and ability to master the use of dark power in a short period of time is remarkable.

No mysterious seed can be buried forever. Even if it is thrown into the deep sea or buried in the soil, it may transform and sublimate into a marine or subterranean creature many years later.

Kagura Tendo could have foreseen that the crystal he gave to Suzuka would find a host, but he never imagined it would be Yuzuru Nishimiya.

Her brows furrowed in a somewhat somber expression.

"Are you very averse to the power of darkness?"

Instead of answering, Nishimiya Yuzuru asked, "Is there a way?"

Tendou Kagura shook her head; "No." The simplest way is to kill the host, and the mysterious power will naturally disappear.

“I don’t really hate this power…” Nishimiya Yuzuru said, revealing the truth, but she didn’t like it much either. “If there were no mysterious power and everyone was just an ordinary person, then my mother-in-law wouldn’t have died, right?”

Kagura Tendo still remembers that kind old woman who once visited Yuzuru's home. The old woman had silver hair and always had a smiling face. Did she also die in that disaster?

"Reality has its tragedies, and everyone must die eventually."

“But my mother-in-law can live for many more years and see me grow up and become independent.” She is still young and has just started junior high school.

Kagura Tendou noticed her thoughts.

"You can't let this go in your heart."

Nishimiya Yuzuru said resentfully, "Yes!"

She harbored resentment that had been building up for a long time, and she was extremely disgusted with the gods and spirit mediums of the mystical world.

"I want to ask those gods, what right do they have to do this!"

Kagura looked at her, sometimes knowing the truth isn't a good thing.

And this information is not something she can know right now.

However, Yuzuru Nishimiya will find the answer himself. Unless absolutely necessary, Kagura Tendo never interferes in other people's lives; this is his code of conduct.

"Do you want to take revenge on the gods?"

"I just want an explanation."

Nishimiya Yuzuru said this in a very firm tone, but deep down she was actually quite unsure.

After all, she suspected that the culprit might not be God alone, but all the gods, as evidenced by the fact that Myoken-no-Mikoto valued those pillars of light.

She felt a sense of bewilderment, like someone drawing a sword and looking around in confusion.

Yuzuru Nishimiya is rational, but her wish is simple: she doesn't pursue a happy life, but a life without pain.

Life is like a pendulum, with pain making up half of it, so every swing brings pain.

Her previous source of suffering stemmed from her family and upbringing, but now there is another source: the torment of the truth.

"If we're going to talk about justice, then power is essential. They have a very bad attitude towards humans, and something even worse might happen."

"..."

Tendou Kagura looked at her and said, "I heard you seem unwilling to level up."

"I just haven't decided yet." Nishimiya Yuzuru lowered her head, feeling inexplicably guilty under Tendo Kagura's gaze; she felt the same way when she skipped school. "Am I an oddball?"

“You’re not considered an anomaly yet. Your dark power is unique; it doesn’t belong to this world. I brought it here because I have a duty to remind you about the use and taboos of these powers,” Kagura Tendo said.

Sequence 6 has the ability to summon Outer Gods. With three systems, if you're not careful, three Outer Gods might suddenly appear, making the situation even more chaotic and the world's chances of winning even slimmer.

It will most likely repeat the same mistakes as the second node.

But Nishimiya Yuzuru, upon hearing these words, felt a sense of awe and confusion.

"So what are your plans next?"

Yuzuru Nishimiya fell silent. She had only recently returned to Chiba, hadn't even gone home, and didn't know how to face her mother and sister. She had been wandering around.

Her initial motives for approaching Tendo Kagura weren't entirely pure, but back then she was using Suzuka as a cover. This time, however, she came to resolve her inner doubts. Now, however, she's lost her excuse and doesn't know what to do.

Kagura Tendo hasn't changed; her attitude remains the same. It's her mindset that has changed.

"May I become your apprentice?"

Tendo Kagura was surprised; this statement came as a surprise.

"Why?"

"Because you are very strong, even stronger than those gods." Nishimiya Yuzuru said honestly. She remembered that she had eaten at Suzuka's house once, and Tendo Kagura went out once. Afterwards, a shooting star streaked across the sky, exactly the same as the shooting star that killed Yamata no Orochi yesterday, and even more similar to the arc of light that circled the globe before.

She felt that the mythical creature could be killed so easily, and that the identity of the Heavenly Dao Kagura was extremely unusual, possibly the mysterious powerhouse that the whole world was searching for.

Although her seniority has decreased, the relationship is now stronger. However, when she sees Suzuka, they each act separately. At most, she only suffers losses on Tendo Kagura's side.

Tendo Kagura remained silent for a long time, just as Nishimiya Yuzuru was feeling uneasy.

He nodded in agreement.

Nishimiya Yuzuru has potential for development; the Shadow System is the most mysterious of the three. Even if Shang Yang were to be resurrected, he wouldn't know much about this system. Although he transformed his spiritualist traits into the light of the sun to fight against darkness, he is not a Shadow Sequence user after all.

However, Kagura Tendou had studied the Dark Mark of the Descendant, which was the blood residue of the Eternal Dark Angel. Through this, a lot of information and knowledge could be deciphered.

Unfortunately, we are still a long way from launching a new system of subsidiary systems.

Unless he can obtain a higher rank of a Shadow Sequencer, which would be equivalent to ascending to the top in one step.

However, only those at Sequence 6 can initially condense such a thing, and this is also a characteristic of this level. They completely transform themselves, and their specific species and humans are no longer related. They belong to the anomalies that Nishimiya Yuzuru mentioned earlier.

"Is there anything else I need to do?" Yuzuru asked. Becoming an apprentice was too easy; she hadn't even given any formal apprenticeship gifts.

She thought it was some kind of reclusive master like Tendo Kagura who would set up difficult tasks; that's how it's portrayed in various works.

"No need to do anything else, you can go now," Kagura Tendo said, shaking her head.

"Huh?" Yuzuru scratched his head, feeling inexplicably being told to leave. Was this a code? Is it no longer acceptable to slap someone three times on the back of the head?

"I want to sleep," Kagura Tendo said bluntly.

Yuzuru seemed to awaken from a dream, his body merging into the darkness, and he slunk away.

Spending too much time in the dark makes you more and more energetic, completely unaware that your sleep schedule is extremely gloomy.

May all the gods swiftly come to my aid; if anyone disobeys, I will subdue Fengdu. Chapter Ninety-Three: The Undercurrent of Supernatural Powers

On the eastern coast, the sea is turbulent and turbulent.

A handsome man walked on the beach, leaving shallow footprints, step by step emerging from the sea. He was soaking wet and carried a short sword with an ancient appearance in his hand.

The great-grandson left the deep sea and used his magic to dry his clothes. He looked at the black short sword in his hand, his eyes flashing with fervent joy.

"The legendary divine weapon, the Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi, I've finally obtained you. Even if I hadn't gotten the Yata no Kagami, it wouldn't matter, you are more useful than that mirror." The great-grandson murmured to himself. The Yata no Kagami was only considered as Amaterasu's approval, but the Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi was a symbol of power and had extraordinary significance.

However, this sword was lost during the turmoil more than 500 years ago, and according to legend, it fell into the sea.

Finding a needle in a haystack is as difficult as climbing to heaven.

But unexpectedly, he has now found it.

There's no mistake! He is the legendary chosen one, destined to rule Japan and dominate the world.

"Is the Yamata no Orochi really dead? There should still be a possibility of its resurrection. People remember it for decades, even centuries, and it may be reborn again. But will the gods stop its legend?"

"No, I have to build my own power. If those old forces can't be used by me, then they can only be destroyed..." Gensun drew his sword and went ashore. He had suffered a great loss in the Divine Palace and had a close call with death. The Yata Mirror fell and almost killed him. It took him a long time to recover from his injuries, and he still felt lingering fear.

During that time, he calmed down and thought things through, and felt that there were many suspicious points.

Now that they have obtained the Kusanagi Sword, they are quite certain that the girl known as the goddess has the ability to sense and summon divine artifacts.

Because he also found the Kusanagi Sword using a similar method.
