Zongman: Contract with Yakumo Yukari, and ask for cohabitation with the child?

Reiko stood there in a daze, staring at the funny monster.

She felt that the other person was very familiar, but for a moment, she couldn't remember its name.

"It's me!"

"Mountain God~!"

The funny monster stroked his beard and introduced himself happily.

The voice was kind, like that of a gentle old man enjoying his retirement.

"Mountain...Mountain God?"

"Why--...?"

Reiko exclaimed in disbelief, looking the funny monster up and down.

In her memory.

The mountain god is a strong and burly middle-aged woman!

He is nearly three meters tall, with grayish-white skin, and is as indestructible as granite!

Old-fashioned and mean!

Majestic and irritable!

He is the incarnation of the back mountain and the most powerful monster in this mountain range!

However...

The mountain god in front of her was completely different from the one in her memory!

Lingzi watched carefully for a long time, and finally took a deep breath.

You can't go wrong...

The funny monster in front of her was indeed the mountain god!

...

"Lord Mountain God..."

"What happened last night?"

"And your body, how did it become like this?"

Reiko asked doubtfully.

Combined with what happened just now, she saw the monsters fleeing from the back mountain in panic.

Her heart sank, and she had a bad feeling that something must have happened last night!

...

"Reiko, it's all over."

"You'd better not ask."

Hearing Lingzi's question, the mountain god smiled bitterly.

Thinking back to what happened last night, the mountain god is still in shock and his body is shaking.

...

Hearing even the mountain god say this, Lingzi became even more angry.

She raised the branch in her hand and pointed it at the mountain god.

"In that case..."

"Then I will launch a third challenge."

"If I defeat you, you will tell me the shrine and the truth."

Reiko said cunningly, trying to threaten the mountain god.

She saw the mountain god's weakness, so she issued a challenge.

With the mountain god's current strength, he is definitely no match for her.

...

"That's it..."

"Then I'll give this shrine to you."

"The miko here is already old."

"If you live here and can take care of her, I'll feel at ease."

The mountain god smiled helplessly.

She stepped aside.

He personally gave the shrine that enshrined him to the human girl in front of him.

...

"What...?"

"Isn't this shrine the treasure you care about most?"

Lingzi was a little stunned and asked in confusion.

"yes..."

"That's why I'm asking you..."

"After all, you are so gentle..."

"Reiko, what's the difference between humans and monsters?"

"Monsters, it's nothing more than living longer and seeing things more clearly."

Maybe he had experienced a life-and-death catastrophe.

The once old-fashioned and mean mountain god has figured out a lot of things.

She put down her deity's airs and turned into a kind old woman.

Growing flowers, drinking tea...

Enjoying the incense and offerings from humans, he began to use his divine power to do some good deeds within his ability.

Then...

Lord Mountain God, an unexpected discovery.

Such a simple and peaceful life is perfect for her!

Even that lonely, empty heart is being filled with happiness little by little!

From today on, every day will be more fulfilling than her previous days!

...

"This is so weird..."

"Tell me the truth, has a stronger monster appeared?"

"There he is! I'm going to expel him and restore everything to its original state!"

Reiko said angrily.

She can no longer survive in the human world.

No one understands her, and her life is filled with only ridicule and abuse!

Even the kids on the street would throw stones at her and call her a freak!

despite this...

She still responds to the world with tenderness.

She never took revenge on anyone.

She's not looking for someone who can understand her.

She began to wander around the back mountains and appeared in those mysterious places.

She hangs out with monsters and even makes a "Book of Friends".

Many monsters recorded in the book live in this back mountain.

but!

Her friends' homes were destroyed!

Lingzi couldn't stand this kind of brutality, and she vowed to teach the other person a lesson!

...

Hearing Lingzi's angry words, the mountain god suddenly became anxious.

"Reiko, absolutely not!"

"Absolutely not!"

"You are not even my opponent, let alone that great master?"

Lord Mountain God, persuaded earnestly.

But...

Lingzi was so angry that she couldn't listen at all.

"Then tell me! What should I do?"

"I have nothing left!"

"My only friends are monsters!"

"Someone wants to drive them away, am I just going to stand by and watch?"

Lingzi roared angrily and spoke her true feelings.

How cruel this materialistic world is to her!

Why must even this last bit of warmth be cruelly taken away!

"Lingzi..."

The mountain god looked worried and wanted to counsel the child in front of him.

But the words that came to my lips were not spoken yet.

A terrifying demonic power that even makes it shudder!

But it fell from the sky, covering the entire back mountain!

It was clearly noon, the time of the day when the sun was the brightest!

But for some reason, the sun's rays became dim!

The entire shrine and the entire back mountain were covered in a strange bloody color!

"The sun in the sky!"

"she..."

"no no!"

"It's Him, the Lord, He is in the sun!"

Sensing something was wrong, the mountain god reminded Lingzi to look at the sun above her head.

at this time...

I wonder what has affected the midday sun!

It was like a solar eclipse, the whole thing turned black!

And in the center of the sun, a nine-tailed fox with a white face and golden hair was looking down at the world with cold eyes!

He...

It's for Lingzi...
