Started from practicing sword in the countryside of the second dimension

None of the gods and generals denied it, and it was indeed the case.

Ever since he started adding points, he has gradually deviated from the path of ordinary people.

After traveling to this era, he gained an unknown number of attribute points compared to the early days, and as the attribute points increased, his status gradually changed.

By now, I have gradually become accustomed to my own abnormalities and have begun to feel a little confused about the things that I took for granted in the past.

No, it can’t be called blurry. In fact, things in the past are still vivid in my mind, but they have slightly lost their sense of reality with the passage of time.

If he thought about it carefully, before he came here, he seemed to have just wanted to kill monsters in the regional painting to increase some attributes before school started.

As a result of all the losses, he has spent a long time here, and Hoori's life has become like a phantom of the past.

"Then do you want to visit the village occasionally? You have seldom been to the human world in recent years, right?"

"…………Do you think that if I interact more with ordinary people, I can become more humane?"

"That's too much. General, you are not so inhumane."

"Really............Since you said so, let's go shopping."

Although Kaishinshochen didn't think it was necessary, Fujiwara no Mokou seemed to care about him when she brought this up.

After hesitating for a moment, he decided to get up and go for a stroll in the human village with Fujiwara no Moko.

"How are those guys in the underworld doing?"

"It's still the same... If you care, why don't you go down by yourself? If you go now, you can compete for the 113th Arm Wrestling Championship."

"If it's pure strength, I can't compete for more than a few rounds... If I use my abilities, it won't count as participating in an arm wrestling competition."

"Eh? If it's Jiang Chen, he will probably win even if he uses pure strength."

"No... If I don't count my special abilities and pure strength, I might be a small fry."

"Uh, are you kidding?"

Fujiwara no Momoko seemed quite unconvinced by what Kaishin Shōomi said. After all, judging from Kaishin Shōomi's daily performance, no one would think that he was a powerless person.

However, General Jie Shenchen himself knew that without using all kinds of messy bonuses and coordinating with other techniques, he was not actually that strong purely in terms of the force he could exert at a single point.

After all, he really has very little strength. Compared with his life and agility attributes, his strength is still within the range of ordinary people.

If you were to have an arm wrestling contest among a bunch of monsters, it would be very easy to be eliminated in the first few rounds.

"Oh, Master Meihong, are you going to Terakoya today too? Oh, Master Zenshin, wow, the last time I saw Master Zenshin go out seems to have been ten years ago. Master Zenshin bless you, Master Zenshin bless you."

"Today, I not only met Meihong-sama, but also Quanshen-sama. I'm sure I'll be especially lucky all day long!"

"Namo San, Namo San."

When walking on the street with Fujiwara no Moko, almost every passerby in the human village would pay their respects to the two of them.

Even if they were just greeting Meihong at first, after seeing the generals and ministers beside them, they would unconsciously straighten their chests and bow to show respect.

“That’s why I don’t want to go out anymore.”

However, it is precisely because of this attitude of ordinary villagers that the frequency of the gods and generals appearing in the human world is getting lower and lower.

Chapter 268 Hieda Awu

"Stop, if you want to pass through here, you have to defeat me first!"

When Kaigami Shōomi and Fujiwara no Momoko arrived at the door of Terakoya, a woman with a petite body, wearing a military commander's armor that did not fit her body shape at all, shouted to stop them.

The other person was wearing a very ancient-style mask on her face, but because of the mismatch in size, the mask blocked her eyes, making her unable to see anything at all.

So it seemed that the other party spoke only because he heard the noise of someone walking over.

"Knock me down. I told you that you look like you can't stand steadily right now. You will fall down without being hit."

Fujiwara no Mokou took a look at the other party's shaky posture and couldn't help but complain.

"Eh?! Is this voice Meihong?"

Hearing Fujiwara no Momoko's voice, the armored woman hurriedly tried to take off the mask on her face, but her military uniform was too heavy.

The opponent didn't keep his balance for a moment and tilted towards the ground under the influence of gravity. Noticing this, General Jieshen stretched out his arm and grabbed the opponent who was about to fall.

"Ah, thanks. Hey, are you..............Jiang Chen?"

After stabilizing her body, the woman in military uniform finally took off her mask, but she was very confused when she saw that it was Kaishin Shōomi instead of Fujiwara no Mokou who was supporting her.

However, after looking at the generals and ministers for a while, the other party asked with some uncertainty.

"Hmm? You know me...wait, you look familiar."

Seeing this ordinary-looking woman in front of him calling out his name, Kaishinjochen was stunned for a moment, mainly because most people in Gensokyo now called him All-God.

Those who called him their minister were basically those long-lived monsters that he was familiar with, but he was sure that he had never seen the one in front of him before.

However, although he had never seen the other person before, the other person did give him a very familiar feeling, and the fact that he could call out his name was also suspicious.

"No, no, I'm very sorry... I let you see my inappropriate side. I'm Hieda Awu, the son of this generation's Oari."

After realizing that the person in front of her was indeed Jie Shen Jiang Chen, the woman in military uniform looked very flustered and kept apologizing to Jie Shen Jiang Chen.

"I see, Hieda, no wonder I feel familiar with you...but why are you wearing a military commander's uniform?"

After the other party revealed his name, the generals and ministers finally realized where the sense of familiarity came from.

Considering that Yuari's son was able to retain some knowledge after reincarnation, it was not surprising that the other party recognized him when they met for the first time.

But as far as he knew, the sons of Yuari were all weak and sickly, with no fighting ability at all, and they always used their notebooks to record something.

I totally don't understand why he would wear such a magnificent-looking military uniform. Yuari's son is not a combat character at all.

"Because this guy is very obsessed with the samurai culture of the outside world. He has read a lot of books related to samurai and often wears strange clothes."

"Hey, Meihong, don't say this in front of Lord Jiangchen!!!"

Fujiwara no Mokou, who hangs out in the human village every day and spends most of her time in the Terakoya, immediately reveals some of the other party's little secrets.

This made Hieda Awu feel so ashamed that he tried to stop Fujiwara Mokou from revealing his little secret with a red face.

"Why? This isn't something worth hiding... Besides, do you think there's any need to hide the way you're dressed now?"

"This is this, and that is that... Especially in front of the general."

"Ah~~ So that's why. But I think you guys are overthinking it. A general is just a general. Is there any need to be so reserved?"

"Meihong, of course you don't think there's anything wrong with being with Master Shouchen all the time, but for us, Master Shouchen is the greatest figure in this fantasy town, and we must always respect him... Sorry, Master Shouchen, I, Hieda Awu, am still immature."

Over the years, the belief in the gods and generals has become deeply ingrained in the residents of Gensokyo.

Although most people don’t usually mention it, they just treat it as a routine task when they worship and don’t care too much about it.

However, when the gods and generals occasionally went out and these people saw the real gods, the local beliefs that had been accumulated over the years would make these people extremely respectful to them.

Although he knew that this behavior was the embodiment of people's respect for the gods and ministers, it made him feel quite uncomfortable anyway.

As a result, he gradually stopped going out to the human world.

"You're like this too... Really, you weren't like this when you were Hieda Al."

"I'm sorry... I'm just the useless Hieda Satoru."

"Hmm? Although you have reincarnated into the present you, you should still have the memories of your predecessors, right?"

"Although there are some, I have no sense of reality at all... The memories of my ancestors are just pure knowledge to me."

"I see. There's some truth to the reincarnation law that says you become a new person every time you reincarnate... But I'm not used to being treated like this by you."

For the generals of Kaishin, the events of the Hieda Al period are still vivid in their minds.

In addition, the person in front of him is the other person's reincarnation. Even if he can understand that the two are no longer the same person, Kaishenjiangchen will still unconsciously treat her with the same attitude as he treats Hieda Al.

But when the other party treated him with such respect, all the gods and generals suddenly realized that the two were indeed not the same person.

Even if some embers of the past are still preserved, what is born on those embers is not the same leaf as before.

Realizing this, all the gods and generals fell silent.

"Where's Huiyin?"

While Kaishin Shōchen was having a hair storm in his head, Fujiwara no Mokou looked inside.

When she found that Kamishizawa Keiin, who was in Terakoya most of the time, was missing, she asked with a little confusion.

"He went to the Lost Bamboo Forest. He said he wanted to cut some bamboo to make some bamboo chairs or something."

"Tsk, are those chairs finally no longer usable?"

"After all, it's a long time ago... So there's nothing I can do. As you can see, I can only play with the kids here so they don't have the energy to cause trouble."

"I see... Wait, where are the children you mentioned?"

"Isn't this right...eh?"

Hieda Awu looked around and found that it seemed that they were the only ones here, and there was no trace of students at all.

Chapter 269 Prolonging life

“Why are all the kids…?”

"Because the children are not interested in what you said. After all, there are no samurai generals in Gensokyo... When they are tired and hungry, they will come back. Take this."

As Fujiwara no Moeko spoke, she handed the dried meat to Hieda Awu. She sighed and took the dried meat to the kitchen.

'boom'

Then, while walking towards the kitchen with the dried meat, because the military uniform was too bulky, Hieda Awu's armor hit the sides of the door, leaving her stuck in the doorway.

"So I asked you to take off this armor. I really don't know what good it is."

"It's okay, I'm fine, don't take off my clothes... I made them with great difficulty."

"No matter how hard you work, something that is not practical is not practical."

Amid Hieda Ago's wailing, Fujiwara no Mokou finally took off his bulky samurai suit, revealing his relatively normal clothes underneath.

And in the eyes of all the gods, the image of the other party without the mask and armor was not much different from the son of Yu Ali in previous generations, at least 90% similar.

The only difference, apart from individual growth environment, is age.

At least the Hieda Albi in Kaishin Shoin's memory is much older than the Hieda Awu in front of him.

"Time flies by so fast..."

After busying around in the kitchen for a while, Fujiwara no Momoko came out, stood next to Kaishin Shōomi, then looked at Hieda Awu in front of the kitchen stove and said.

"Hmm? Why are you suddenly lamenting the time?"

"Maybe it's because you suddenly went out, and I couldn't help but think of the past. It was just like yesterday when Hieda Al lived nearby... and in the blink of an eye, she had already reincarnated four times."

Fujiwara no Mokou looked a little sad.

After all, unlike all the gods and generals, she spends most of her time in the human world.

Watching people in this world being born and dying, then new babies being born and growing old, and seeing off those familiar people again and again.

Although this is something I have become accustomed to, there are always times when I feel sad about this kind of thing.

"…………Then let me think of a solution?"

"Even if it's you, Jiang Chen, there's nothing you can do about it. After all, this is a limitation of human beings... Uh, wait a minute, you're not going to turn humans into monsters to extend their lifespans, are you? Forget it, if that's the case, they wouldn't be human anymore."

If an ordinary person said this, Fujiwara no Moko would definitely not take it seriously.

But the God of War has done a lot of messed up things in the past, so if he suddenly wants to extend the lifespan of the humans in Gensokyo, it may not be a big problem.

After all, many monsters have some means of extending human life, but they are extremely rare and cannot be popularized.

"Human or monster, does it really matter?"

"Well...it's actually the same if it doesn't affect your life, but do you really want to do this?"

"If you have such an idea...you can ask the villagers for their opinions. If anyone doesn't want to die, you can ask them to come to me."

"Wait, are you serious?"

Fujiwara no Moko, who was just chatting here casually, suddenly became serious when she saw that Kaishin Shōomi was speaking so seriously.
