Whose personality mask's power comes from the heroic spirit?

"The soul-calming ceremony..." Taiyi raised his eyebrows when he thought of the images he saw on the surveillance camera.

The last generation's Return of the Gods was somewhat not strong enough.

During the retreat period, the ritual would start with the current "Goddess' Wife" and end with that "Goddess' Wife". The ritual was never performed on any other priestess.

I think it was because too much was asked of him in his previous service that he ran out of energy in the later period.

After all, not everyone can play a multiplayer game in one go without taking a boost potion beforehand.

Of course, it is also possible that the person was unable to detach himself from his own morals and was unable to do the "chicken and egg rice" behavior, so he overdrew himself first.

Seeing Taichi once again look thoughtful, and then distracted, Nagami Misuzu gritted his teeth secretly.

"I plan to have the three royal families jointly host this soul-calming ceremony."

"Huh?" Both Asashi Jushiko and Asashi Kōtaro turned their heads to look at Nagami Misuzu with astonishment on their faces.

It seems that what she just said was not discussed with others in advance and was a temporary decision.

Because even the other two parties involved, Yachiyo Ashiki and Chizuru Jiang, looked at her with surprise.

But as the husbands of the parties involved, both the head of the Nagami family and Chizuru Jiang's husband Shozo remained calm, and the latter even nodded with a slightly surprised expression.

"Tian Yijia is always at your service."

To show his absolute loyalty to the 'Great Witch'.

Although Yachiyo's face was distorted for a moment, perhaps considering the current situation, she did not lose her temper, but the sound of her teeth grinding was heard after all.

"Since it is the order of the Great Miko, the Asi family naturally has no reason to refuse."

Asiji Jushiko put his expressionless face back on, but on the face of Asiji Kotaro, who was next to Nagami Misuzu, a hint of jealousy appeared.

After her initial surprise, Qian Hejiang regained her expressionless look. She didn't even bother to look at Zhuang San's expression.

Chapter 48: Ten Sons and Rare Good

"Please make your decision carefully."

With an ambiguous smile, Nagami Misuzu closed the last meeting before selecting the God's wife.

The six 'parents' of the three royal families left the room in an orderly manner.

In the end, only Taiyi, Xishiliang and Shizi were left in the room.

Taiyi glanced at Xishiliang, then looked at Shizi.

"Aren't you going back with your family?"

Compared to Xi Shiliang, who is very likely to have reached some secret agreement with Nagami Misuzu, Taiyi now trusts the relatively independent-minded Shizi more.

The former had been trained to become the tool her mother wanted, and although the latter had also been nurtured in this direction to some extent, because Yachiyo had neglected her a lot, she had time to think.

"Come to Xishiliang and serve my elder brother tonight." Xishiliang's eyes began to become gloomy.

"Brother?" Hearing this unfamiliar name, Shizi raised his eyebrows and looked at Xishiliang in surprise.

"Yes, this is the exclusive way for Xishiliang to address elder brother after elder brother's consent." Xishiliang smiled and nodded to Shizi and answered.

After Shizi was stunned for a moment, there was a bit more guilt and apology in his eyes when he looked at Taiyi again.

She never thought of giving Tai a special name, but followed the villagers in calling him 'Master Zai Lai Shen'.

As a villager poisoned by the remnants of feudal culture, Shizi naturally understands the importance of "reputation".

But she never called Taiyi by his 'name'.

It was as if they denied the existence of 'Naruto Taichi' and only saw the existence of 'The Returning God'.

In terms of considering Taiyi and understanding Taiyi's position, she is far less thoughtful and sincere than Xi Shiliang.

"It's like using the god as a tool."

This thought emerged in Shizi's mind.

"Xi Shiliang, it may be a bit too much to say this, but can you let me be alone with Lord Zailaishen for some time?" After hesitating for a moment, Shizi looked at Xi Shiliang with shame on his face and asked.

Xi Shiliang did not respond directly, but stared at Shizi for a few seconds before slowly nodding his head.

"As long as it doesn't delay my time serving my elder brother." Xi Shiliang supported his hands on his knees and slowly stood up from the tatami.

Ka-la-la——

After opening the sliding door, Xishiliang bowed his head to Taiyi and then closed the sliding door again from outside.

"I'm really sorry." After Xi Shiliang's footsteps faded away, Shizi suddenly bowed to Taiyi and apologized, "I never considered your feelings before, and just kept calling you 'Master Zai Lai Shen', completely ignoring the significance of you introducing your name at the beginning."

Taiyi's brows raised slightly.

"Can you please allow me to call you by your name directly?" Shizi raised his head and looked at Taiyi and asked.

"Okay." Taiyi's mouth corners slightly raised.

He felt that Shizi's attitude towards him had changed to some extent.

He is no longer as dry as before, simply regarding himself as a puppet named "God of Return".

It was Xishiliang, though she was the first to ask for a 'nickname' that belonged exclusively to her, but Taiyi could tell from that nickname and Xishiliang's attitude that Xishiliang still hadn't changed her attitude towards Taiyi.

She just changed the 'God of Return' from being a shared possession of the whole village to a puppet that belonged to her alone.

"Master Taiichi." Juzi once again put his forehead on the tatami and called Taiichi's name in a gentle voice.

"The reason you transferred Xishiliang away on purpose and wanted to be alone with me was just because of the title issue?" Taiyi looked at Shizi and asked.

"More than that." Juzi replied with his head down, "It's still the same request as before... I hope Master Taiichi will choose Xi Shiliang when choosing a divine wife."

Tai was stunned for a moment, the corner of his mouth twitching slightly.

"You have watched the video... You should know that in a sense, the fates of the 'divine wife' and the 'ghost girl' are no different."

Shizi paused slightly.

"please."

No further explanation, just repeated pleading.

"I understand." Taiyi lowered his eyelids slightly, and his expression gradually became indifferent. "Since you are so begging, I naturally have no reason to refuse. When the day of the official selection comes, I will choose Xi Shiliang as the god's wife."

"But, Shizi, you have to promise me that you will never tell anyone else about what you saw in that place."

Compared with the villagers of Laidai Village, Shizi looks too much like a normal person... Taiyi plans to save her.

"I will keep this promise." Shizi raised his head and gave Taiyi a firm smile.

……

"Brother, when Juzi was alone with you, he advised you that you should choose Xishiliang to serve as the god's wife." Xishiliang, wearing a yukata, appeared in the bedroom, sat on the futon, looked directly at Taiyi and asked in a declarative tone.

Tai nodded.

"You know quite well what Juzi will do."

"That idiot..." Xi Shiliang sighed helplessly, "After all, they have been playing together since they were born. Just like she knows Xi Shiliang, Xi Shiliang naturally knows her very well."

"To describe it with words from books, it's too individualistic." Xi Shiliang sighed, "In the entire Laidai Village, Shizi is like an outlier."

"Xi Shiliang has never seen anyone in the village who cares about others as much as she does."

"Foolishly kind."

"This is Xi Shiliang's evaluation of her."

"Although Xishiliang also hopes that Brother can choose Xishiliang to be your divine wife, she doesn't want to give in out of pity." Xishiliang stared at Taiyi and replied, "So, Brother, please ignore her concessions and make the choice based on your inner wishes. Only in this way can Brother become the Brother who belongs only to Xishiliang."

"Of course, even if the duties of the God's Wife do not fall on Xi Shiliang, it does not matter. Xi Shiliang will also fulfill the duties of the Ghost Girl conscientiously."

Xi Shiliang did not lie.

Everything she said and did came from her heart.

Taiyi looked into Xishiliang's eyes and saw her true heart from her somewhat hazy eyes.

It can be seen that Nagami Misuzu's training of her was extremely successful.

She even viewed herself as a prop that could be discarded at any time for the purpose of ritual.

She has read a lot of books and has a wide range of knowledge.

But the knowledge contained in the books she read was all what Meishou wanted her to read.

There should even be a large number of books written by Misuzu himself.

Therefore, although Xishiliang seems to be knowledgeable and insightful, in fact, even her knowledge is strictly controlled by Meishou.

There was absolutely no will of her own.

Chapter 49: Selective Salvation from Humanity

"Purification Light Wave Armed Phone Card. This is a special armed phone card that I used to reorganize the data left by the aliens in the spacecraft and conduct targeted purification. It has a very high probability of being able to expel the parasites in the human body."

Holding a new phone card, Aix told Taiyi about his latest achievements.

"It has no harm to the human body." Aix added.

"My suggestion is that when you use this phone card, it's best to use my power as well." Irisviel added, "That way, even if the parasitic substances cause any damage to the host body when they are excreted from the human body, I can use my power to heal the host body."

"Wait, how do I use this phone card?" Taiyi asked as he looked at the phone card that Aix handed to him. "You're not going to ask me to transform first before using it, are you?"

"...In order to prevent the parasite from being detected in advance and causing agitation, I made some adjustments." Aix was silent for a few seconds before answering, "Just use what you are best at, and inject the purification light waves into the bodies of those girls."

"Afterwards, they should expel the remains of the parasitic substances destroyed by the purification light waves from their bodies in the same way as they expel impurities."

……

Since Aix said so, Taiyi naturally wouldn't be polite.

That night, he used the method taught by Aix to expel the parasitic substances from Xishiliang.

……

"I suddenly feel so light." The next day, Xi Shiliang expressed his feelings about his relaxed state of body, "This must be the power of my brother at work."

To be precise, it was the power of Ultra that played a role.

Aix has also retested Xishiliang's body and confirmed that the parasitic substances have been completely eliminated from the body.

No one asked how such a single approach could save the men in this village.

After all, emotionally speaking, no one wants to save a group of ogres.

If Xishiliang said that it was because his body was too weak before that he soon noticed the abnormality in his body after the parasitic substances were excreted from his body, then Shizi knew his own body too well.

The body, which was only 60 or 70 points at its best, suddenly became 100 points.

Even the Ten Sons were puzzled by this, thinking that this was most likely Taiyi finally awakening the power of the God-sama.

Then he soon realized that the God was just a lie made up by the adults.

There are no gods coming to Laidai Village.

"Master Taiyi, did you do something?" After feeling the long-lost sense of comfort in his body, Asi Juzi knelt in front of Taiyi and asked him.

"It just helps you expel some unclean things from your body." Taiyi replied.

"So, I suddenly had diarrhea last night, that is..." Shizi looked slightly tipsy and asked Taiyi timidly.

"Well, that's the process of excretion." Tai nodded.

"...Thank you for your hard work." Shizi lowered his eyes slightly, his tone a little uneasy.

"Master Taiyi." After hesitating for a moment, Shizi raised his head and looked at Taiyi, "If you have a chance, you'd better escape from this village as soon as possible."

Ever since she read about the origin of Laidai Village and the sins of the village in the spaceship, Ashi Shizi never praised the village she loved the most.

As much as he loved and admired this village in the past, Shizi now hates and dislikes it.

The sin of cannibalism and the darkness of human nature are fully displayed in this village.

To the extent that now, except for Taiyi, Shizi rarely communicates with other people in the village.

Even with Xi Shiliang and Sha, two people of the same age as her, she would just nod or shake her head and try not to communicate with them as much as possible.

"It's not the right time yet." Taiyi put his hand on Shizi's head and rubbed it gently. "Other people have their own thoughts, and I can't say anything, but I will definitely save you."
