Needless to say, the result was obvious; the half-eaten Cong Yu Wan on the table spoke for itself.

"It's actually true... Hey, are you the general minister from the day before yesterday?"

The first person Yoshino Asatake looked at was Cong Yuwan, and the second person she looked at was the person who broke Cong Yuwan.

And when she saw that they were all gods, generals and ministers, she showed an expression of obvious surprise.

"You are the one who pulled out the Cong Yu Wan? Could it be that the encounter with filth the day before yesterday was not accidental, but something about you attracted filth?"

The incident with Kaishinjo-sensei happened just the day before yesterday. Asatake Yoshino had been busy with it for a long time and had a deep impression of it.

So when I saw that it was the other party who pulled out the Cong Yu Wan, I began to wonder if there was any connection between them.

"How would I know about this? It broke on its own without me even putting any force on it..."

All the generals and ministers knew that whatever they said would be useless in this situation. They were too lazy to explain and just talked about what had happened.

"Oh yeah, it's really broken."

At this moment, another voice that all the gods and generals had heard before came from above.

"Wow! Moko?! Why are you hanging upside down?"

The sudden voice did not scare the generals and ministers, but instead startled Asatake Yoshino, who looked up to observe the person who came.

"That's because I'm a ninja... Guh, it seems a bit too high."

Although Hitachi Mako's appearance hanging upside down on the beam was very cool.

But when it was time to come down, she felt inexplicably scared, as if she was a little afraid of heights.

This made all the generals and ministers wonder why the other party couldn't just come in normally if he was afraid of heights, but had to sneak up on the beam and make a surprise appearance.

Is this what they call a ninja?

Ninja, you are so powerful!

Fortunately, the beam of the side hall was much lower than that of the main hall. Hitachi Mako changed direction and started holding the beam with her hands.

The distance between your feet and the ground is such that you don't have to worry about letting go.

But this way it can't be considered handsome.

"…………I was wondering who pulled out the Cong Yu Wan, it turned out to be you."

"Isn't this Lord Cong Yu? I haven't seen him for two days."

The last person to appear is Lord Cong Yu, who I have also met before.

However, there was no subsequent agility increase, and all the generals and ministers could still only see the general outline of the opponent as before.

But if you can hear the sound very clearly, it doesn't matter.

"I can actually see Lord Cong Yu!"

"Ah~ Looks like I was really chosen. This is going to be interesting... Oh no, this is going to be troublesome."

"Mozi, this is not something you can joke about."

"I understand, Lady Yoshino... Then, what should we do?"

Although there is no problem for the God General to pull out Cong Yuwan.

But no one knows what will happen after the Cong Yu Wan is pulled out.

After all, this thing has been placed in the shrine for more than a hundred years, and no one has ever pulled it out.

"Can even Master Cong Yu see it?"

The God Lord Chao Wu Anqing, who was standing aside, was listening to the conversation between the few people and had already made a decision in his mind.

"Jiang Chenjun, since you have already pulled out the Cong Yu Wan and can still see Master Cong Yu... then I have an unwelcome request."

"Master An Qing, please speak."

Seeing such a serious expression towards Chao Wu Anqing, all the generals and ministers straightened up.

He could more or less guess what the so-called unreasonable request was.

It's nothing more than using Cong Yu Wan to defeat evil spirits and drive away filth.

After all, this thing does have some unique power.

Considering what has happened recently, it is understandable that the other party would have such thoughts.

The only trouble is that all the gods and generals have been injured because of this before.

Although all the generals and ministers are aware of their own situations, outsiders are not, and they will definitely feel some guilt.

"Please marry my daughter Yoshino!"

"Hmm, is it about defeating evil spirits or something... eh?"

The general who was thinking to himself nodded subconsciously, and suddenly felt something was wrong. What did the God in front of him just say?

"I see, you want me to marry Master Jiangchen... Wait a minute!!! Marry?! Father, what are you talking about!!!"

Asatake Yoshino's reaction was also a little slow. After she understood what her father said, her voice instantly rose three levels.

"Wow~ Does this mean that Lady Yoshino is going to make a marriage contract with Lord Masami? That's super romantic."

"No, I don't agree. Getting married after just meeting a few times is too weird!"

Chaowu Yoshinori slammed the table to express his opposition.

"But after pulling out the minister from the Souma Maru, plus what happened the day before yesterday, Yoshino, you should know what this means."

Facing Yoshino Asatake, Yasuharu Asatake pointed out the key points.

"Lord Jiangchen has been targeted by the evil spirit... Wait a minute, this is this, and that is that, why did the topic suddenly turn from this to marriage?"

Although this was indeed the point, Yoshino Asatake once again raised an objection.

She couldn't figure out what the connection was between being targeted by the evil spirit and getting married.

"It's very dangerous for Sho-kun to be targeted by the evil spirit, so I think it's better for Sho-kun to stay in the shrine... But he can't stay in the shrine forever without a reason."

"So the solution father came up with was to let me marry Lord Jiangchen?! How hasty!"

Yoshino Asatake looked a little angry, and it seemed that she was quite dissatisfied with her father's sloppy idea.

Chapter 19: Power is power

"I understand what you mean. That is to say, Lord Anqing thinks that I am dangerous because I am targeted by the evil spirit, so I need to marry Lady Mikoji and let her protect me... Is that right?"

After listening to the conversation of these people, General Jie spoke thoughtfully.

"So this is very strange, Lord Jiangchen, you also think this is very strange, right? A man and a woman who don't know each other at all suddenly get engaged!"

Asatake Yoshinori looked at the general, as if he wanted to get a positive response from him.

"To me, this is a question of whether it is strange or sudden... Excuse me, Lord Anqing, but you are proposing this marriage on the premise that I will be killed by the evil spirit."

All the generals were silent for a moment and turned their gaze to Chao Wu Anqing.

If he had met and gotten to know this miko princess normally today and finally proposed to her, he wouldn't think there was anything wrong with it.

After all, Lady Miko-hime is indeed a beautiful girl with white hair and blue eyes. It would be a lie to say that I don't like such a woman.

But ah, but ah......

The Lord God's current statement completely looked down upon him, a general and a minister of God, which made it difficult for him to let it go.

He would lose to that bastard?!

What a joke!

"General, that is a demon, no human can defeat him. I understand your feelings, but this is the safest way."

Asatake Yasuharu could understand to some extent what Kaishinjoshou was trying to say.

After all, his daughter has powerful spiritual power, and he is the shrine's chief but has no special power. This feeling of powerlessness is not very pleasant.

"So, Master An Qing wants me to hide behind a woman and let that evil bastard laugh at me loudly?"

"Master Jiangchen, Master Anqing didn't mean that... He was just worried about your condition."

Hitachi Mariko on the side seemed to try to smooth things over, but this did not solve any problem.

"I know, but you think I can back down just because of that evil spirit? Absolutely impossible!"

"Even if you say so, what will we do when the evil spirit comes out?"

Chao Wu Anqing was troubled by the toughness of the generals of the gods, as he clearly thought it was a good suggestion.

"How do you think I got injured the day before yesterday? Ha, a mere evil spirit couldn't stop me when we first encountered it, and it's even more impossible now."

"Although I thought it was caused by the evil spirit the day before yesterday, I didn't expect it to be an injury after a direct confrontation... So, Jiang Chen, are you so unwilling to marry Fang Nai?"

After Jie Shenjiangchen spoke, Chao Wu Anqing looked quite distressed. He did not expect Jie Shenjiangchen to have such a reaction.

But after he thought about what the general said, he found that the whole thing was about the evil god.

It seemed that he was just asking the other party whether he wanted to marry his daughter, and did not mention the key issue at all, so the issue returned to the starting point.

"I am also a man, and I certainly wouldn't hate a beautiful woman like Miko-sama, but this is different from that."

"But you want to refuse?"

"Xiao Zhi, how can I accept this kind of marriage proposal that seems like charity? If you want something, you should use force to get it, not in this kind of farce."

All the generals raised their voices and clearly expressed their refusal.

"Wow, the master has a manly aura."

"Owner?"

These words from the gods and generals made Cong Yu, who was standing by, speak unconsciously.

However, the other party's address made all the gods and generals confused.

"You have already pulled out the Cong Yu Wan, right? I am a manager-like existence living in the Cong Yu Wan, so the owner of the Cong Yu Wan is my master."

"So you are a sword spirit... I feel like you are different from what I thought."

Although he had chatted with Cong Yu before, it was only now that the general realized that the other party was this type of person.

"Are you communicating with Master Cong Yu? Alas... Fang Nai, what do you think?"

After seeing the general Jieshen communicating with someone beside him, Chao Wu Anqing hesitated for a moment and turned his gaze to the other party.

"………………So my charm is so low that men won't even get engaged to me? I see. I understand. I completely understand."

"Fang Nao?"

At some point, Yoshino Asatake had been muttering to herself, causing her father to hesitantly repeat his daughter's name.

Although Asatake Yoshino had just said that getting married was too hasty, once she heard the clear rejection from Kaishin Shōomi, she had this reaction.

"Ah~~ I don't think that's what Lord Jiangchen meant, but Lady Fang Nai didn't listen at all......"

Hitachi Mako on the side felt a little helpless. From her perspective as a third party, Kaishin Shōomi had actually praised Asatake Yoshino, and the focus of the issue had nothing to do with Asatake Yoshino herself.

"What are you mumbling about, you stupid woman."

"Stupid, idiot, you actually called me an idiot..."

'Swish'

Before Asatake Yoshinori could say anything else, Kaishenjiangchen suddenly approached and stared into the other's eyes.

"Close, too close, too close!!"

This action was too sudden, causing Asatake Yoshino to be at a loss for a moment. She wanted to retreat, but Kaishen Jiangchen grabbed her head and she was unable to retreat.

"Listen carefully. An engagement is not something you have to obey just because the Lord God over there says so. It is something that will naturally happen when someone like you is attracted to me and falls for me without any external factors, and wants to be with me regardless of everything. You can understand that, right?"
