The mastermind behind this started by creating a strange story

The sound of the finger snap rang directly into the depths of Reimu Furude's mind, like a bucket of ice water being poured over her head, or like a deafening bell suddenly ringing from the side.

Anyway, the consequence was that Furude Reimu started awake with a start, and all her sleepiness disappeared in an instant.

"How's it going? Are you awake now?"

Zhu Kong asked with a smile, his whole body was warm and gentle, just like the older brother next door, sunny and handsome.

But Furude Reimu stared at Takesora as if she had seen a ghost, her heart pounding. This was not the shy and nervous heartbeat that comes from seeing her loved one, but rather she was frightened.

God knows how much damage the loud noise just now has caused to her mentally. She is just a child.

Why treat her like this.

"Hmm? Are you still not awake? Do you want to do it again?" Upon seeing this, Zhu Kong raised his right hand again and pretended to snap his fingers.

"No, no, no, I'm sober now, I'm fine now!!!"

Seeing that the bastard in front of her was about to snap his fingers again, Furude Reimu hurriedly waved her hands. To prove that she was awake, she even did a few gymnastics moves on the spot.

After finishing the action, Furude Reimu, whose face was slightly hot, wiped away the sweat on her temples with her hands, took several breaths, and finally came back to her senses from the snap of her fingers.

Now, all the sleepiness has really disappeared.

"Why did you transfer me here again..."

Reimu Furude, who had completely sobered up, looked speechlessly at Takesora who picked up the white cat and started petting it again.

"Hey, Miss Furute, don't forget your manners~"

Ancient hands Reimu "(▼ dishes ▼#)"

How could this person be so wicked, transferring her here without any explanation and bullying her with snapping fingers!

What's even more abominable is that if you don't have manners yourself, why do you expect others to pay attention to manners? ! !

I cursed in my heart, but a forced smile appeared on my face: "I'm so sorry, I was rude, Takesora-kun!"

Furude Reimu specifically emphasized the pronunciation of the word "jun", but Takesora seemed not to hear it and still had that warm expression.

"That's right, as a lady you must not forget your manners~"

Furutte Reimu: "（╯‵□′）╯︵┴─┴"

He is clearly a person who has lived for an unknown period of time, no, he is not even a human being, yet he actually lets a girl like me, who is only about twenty years old, call him "Jun"!

How shameless!

Although she had a lot of thoughts in her mind, Reimu Furude was able to control her expression very well, so that her facial expression did not collapse!

"Then may I ask, what did Zhukong-kun want me to do this time?"

"Well..." Zhukong raised his eyebrows slightly and said as a matter of course, "Of course it's to celebrate our little witch's success in exorcising the evil spirits. She has finally grown up~"

What's with the tone of the elders!!!

What do you mean by our little witch? What do I look like in your eyes?

She was complaining madly in her heart, but Furude Reimu knew that she must not say what she was thinking out loud, otherwise, considering the other party's bad character, she might be even worse off!

"Thank you, Zhukong-kun, for caring about my growth. I would like to express my gratitude."

Reimu Furude performed an awkward salute like an ancient noble woman. She had occasionally seen this kind of noble etiquette in her free time.

She didn't ask why Zhu Kong knew that she had successfully exorcised the spirit. Given his abilities, it would be strange if he didn't know.

"So, may I ask what else you have to say, Zhukong-kun?"

"Ah..." Hearing Furushe Reimu's question, Takesora scratched his head, as if thinking about something, "It seems to be gone."

Take a deep breath, take a deep breath, and don't speak!

Furude Reimu forced herself to suppress the urge to curse.

"Then can you let me go, Takesora-kun?" (gritting teeth)

Chapter 207 Good Night

"Of course, it's just..."

Zhukong still had that amiable smile on his face, but his tone lacked a hint of laziness.

"Please don't reveal my information~"

Hearing this, Furushe Reimu felt a chill in his heart. What did he mean by this? Was it a threat or...

But Zhu Kong did not explain. Instead, he waved his hand casually. In an instant, the surroundings changed completely, as if a mirror was broken. With a loud bang, the surroundings shattered and dissipated into nothingness.

In the last mirror fragments that disappeared, was Zhukong's expression that had never changed from beginning to end.

Reimu Furude came to her senses, looked around, and found herself back in the original room. Everything was normal, as if nothing had happened.

But the completely awake mental state, without any sleepiness in the head, still made Furushe Reimu feel aggrieved. What on earth did that person want to do...

"It's okay if I don't tell you!"

She shouted out in grievance, not caring whether Takesong could hear her or not, Furushe Reimu just wanted to shout like that!

Now that she was no longer sleepy and probably wouldn't be able to fall asleep even if she lay in bed, Furude Reimu decided to go to the chief priest to explain things first. She would have to go and tell him sooner or later anyway, so the sooner she went, the sooner she might as well get it over with.

After patting her cheeks to calm her excessive thoughts a little, Furude Reimu washed her face with cold water, adjusted her mental state, and left the room.

A moment later, inside the palace.

In a slightly larger room, the chief priest and several priests were listening to Masato Sakurai describing what had happened in the past half day.

They set out early in the morning and came back at noon. Even going out for shopping was not that fast, let alone exorcising spirits and ghosts.

But the fact is that when Masato Sakurai went to find the priest, the priest thought they had forgotten to take something, but he received a reply from Masato Sakurai that the exorcism was over.

No, even when they were defrauding others in the past, they were not so fast. In the past, when they charged money for exorcism, they would perform rituals for two or three days, just to make the employer feel that his money was not wasted. But what is going on now!

Following Masato Sakurai's explanation, the priest slowly accepted the fact that exorcism was really...

Just have some hands!

"This will also deter some of the villains. This news has probably been known to those people a long time ago. They may even have grasped the details that you have not noticed."

"By the way, the image you deliberately showed to the outside world was not exposed, right?" After listening to Masato Sakurai's story, the priest suddenly asked an unrelated question.

"Hmm... this..." Sakurai Masato fell into deep thought, recalling his performance from the time he left the mountain to the time he returned, "No, I am still quite confident in my acting skills."

"Whether I was meeting an evil spirit or facing those policemen, I acted calmly. This should give those people the illusion that a miko with divine powers is nothing in our shrine."

"Even exorcism and demon extermination can be done by a little witch like her. There is no need for a priest like me to do anything."

"Really? That's good. It's a good thing it ended so quickly. The shorter the time, the lower the error rate." The priest nodded. The plan formulated before leaving the mountain should be able to give those people the illusion that their shrine is very powerful, and it can also indirectly protect Furude Reimu.

Before setting off, they had discussed together that Furude Reimu must not make any mistakes outside, because the little shrine maiden was the first priestess in their shrine to master divine arts.

But if they don't get rid of the spirit, it will easily lead to a series of problems later, so they can only think of a plan on how to protect Furude Reimu without being noticed.

However, it is gratifying that Furude Reimu is not a shrine maiden who has no fighting power and can only cause harm to non-humans, but a shrine maiden with real powerful fighting power.

If the plants are well controlled, they can cause tremendous destructive power, so Reimu Furude can still ensure his own safety.

The other problem was how to prevent others from focusing their attention on the little shrine maiden. To this end, Masato Sakurai volunteered to come up with a plan.

He portrayed himself as a priest who was disdainful of taking action. It was just a small imp, and even the little priestess of our shrine could deal with it. I came here just as an insurance.

This not only hides the fact that Furutte Reimu's magic is unique to the shrine, but also gives the outside world an attitude that their shrine is hidden deep in the dark!

All of this is based on the fact that people outside of the world don't understand them, and the information asymmetry after the gods appear in the world.

"Now, we should be able to rest assured until the festival." Masato Sakurai said as if relieved of a heavy burden.

"Yes, after the festival is over, it would be best if other gods suddenly appeared, so that those people's attention can be slightly diverted away from us." The palace priest also said this, and then spoke with some doubt.

"Why is it that our country is the first to have gods? Logically, the myths of the three ancient civilizations should have appeared first."

"Whether it's Babylon, Rahab or India, their mythology systems are much older than ours."

"Who knows? Maybe..."

"Da da da~"

Masato Sakurai was about to speak out his thoughts, but the sound of hurried footsteps interrupted his words.

Everyone in the room was startled when they heard the voice, and then all looked towards the door. Before they entered the room to discuss, they had been specifically instructed not to disturb anyone unless there was an urgent issue that could not be resolved.

"Click~"

The door opened, but a figure they didn't expect appeared.

"Furude Kamiko, you... didn't you go to rest?" Sakurai Masato was a little dumbfounded. This was clearly what Furude Reimu told him before she left.

"I'm not sleepy anymore. If I don't explain things clearly, I'll feel upset."

As Furude Reimu spoke, she closed the door, walked forward and knelt on the tatami on the ground, all done smoothly and in one go.

After Furude Reimu sat down, everyone in the room came back to their senses. At this time, the palace chief said awkwardly: "Actually, you don't have to say it."

"I won't!" Furude Reimu said firmly, "I'm going to say it!"

"Okay, okay, you tell me, you tell me..." Realizing the importance of Furude Reimu, Gong Si could only bow his head in defeat.

"It's like this... blah... blah..."

"So so...so so..."

"That's it!"

"Huh~" After letting out all the anger in her heart, Reimu Furude felt relieved. She suddenly felt that these things were just like that and it was not worth worrying about them.

She started her explanation from the prayer to the sacred tree, explaining everything in detail, but she omitted Zhu Kong's figure. She simply used her body to suddenly change on the night of the prayer, and a cool energy emerged and passed by.

Anyway, no one knows the specific process, so whatever she says is true, and... she really doesn't dare to reveal Zhu Kong. No matter what the guy's threats or methods are, let her bear it alone.

"So, you have this divine power because the sacred tree chose you. As for why it chose you, you don't even know?" After listening to Furude Reimu's explanation, Gong Si asked thoughtfully.

"Yes, that's right. I'm going to go back and rest. Good night." After finishing the explanation, Furude Reimu found that her disappeared sleepiness was gradually reappearing, and she wanted to sleep again.

"Good night……"

Looking at Furude Reimu who suddenly appeared and then suddenly left, the priest could only say good night. What else could he say? He was just a weak, pitiful and helpless leader of a shrine.

Still the kind without magic.

Chapter 208 The calm before the storm

"Do you think what Furushe Shinko said is credible?" Seeing Furushe Reimu leaving, the palace assistant suddenly asked.

"It should be true. After all, it makes sense logically."

"That's right, and we have no way to verify it. Besides, there's no benefit for the Ancient Hand God to lie."

A group of priests started chattering, and basically all of them believed what Furude Reimu said.

"There is no should, and there is no probably!" Gong Si suddenly said, "What Gu Shou Shen Zi said is true. Since she said it, it must be true!"

Gong Si looked at everyone present with sharp eyes. At this moment, he was like a silent lion, intimidating without even getting angry.

"Since the gods can indeed respond to reality, we must prepare for this festival. The New Year is about a week away, and by then, the eyes of the world may be on this place!"

"Go ahead. There's only about a week left. Nothing can go wrong during this time!"

The chief priest stood up with his hands on the ground and walked towards the door. The priests responded with silence, and stood up and walked towards the door.

No words are needed to express determination.

………………

At the foot of Mount Fuji, there is a sea of ​​trees in Aokigahara.

Oshima Sho wandered around there, the speed of his soul could not be measured by common sense. Since he wanted to come here, he would come here as quickly as possible.

This time, Oshima Sho had a different feeling.

The last time he woke up from the forest, he was unconscious and his consciousness was blurred. He didn't even take a good look at the forest. Even though he devoured two lives, he only regained some consciousness at the edge of the forest.

Moreover, at that time, the only thought in his mind was revenge, and nothing else, so he ignored the place where he was resurrected.

At this moment, he came to the forest again.

After killing his target of revenge, he should have entered the underworld and reincarnated without any resentment, but for some reason he still stayed in this world.
