Becoming a Demon King from Inuyasha

I can understand each word, but why can't I understand when they are put together?

"What is the doctrine? What does it mean to become bigger and stronger? To accumulate divine power and slowly become stronger?"

Ye Men did not respond, but asked:

"Let me ask you this in return: why do you want to help the villagers? Is it because you are kind, or because you can gain their faith?"

The little water god was speechless. How should he answer this? Who would have the audacity to admit that he was kind?

"Because...faith."

"So what good will it bring to you if you gain faith? Spiritual satisfaction? Increased power? A prerequisite for promotion? Or... will you die without faith?"

"this..."

The little water god was surprised and thought to himself:

I don't think I have ever thought about this issue seriously. I just did some good deeds out of instinct, and I felt happy to be respected by others.

"It should be roughly equal to strength, right? Faith can be refined into divine power. And when you have more divine power, you may be able to qualify to ascend to heaven."

"In that case, isn't it clear what you need to do? Build a church and bring in people who believe in you..."

Ye Men quickly recounted the common church settings in Western fantasy, as well as the divisions of believers and levels of divine power.

Every time the little water god heard a sentence, his eyes would brighten a little.

By the end, my breathing had become rapid.

"There are actually such strict divisions among believers. I want to establish a religion! Establish the Water God Religion! I want to increase my divine power and ascend to heaven."

Listening to the two people's idle chat, Kagome laughed non-stop. Isn't this a common setting in fantasy novels? I didn't expect that one dared to say it and the other dared to believe it.

Because it felt very interesting, Kagome also made a lot of suggestions.

"Since you are the God of Water, maybe you can consider selling purified water or developing special hot springs to make money. With money, the church can also develop quickly..."

Chapter 72: I finally got my reward after all the hardship

"Is this the Spear of Yu? It doesn't look... like anything special."

When the martial arts competition was about to begin, Ye Men found the little water god's artifact in the warehouse.

Looking at the Spear of Yu that was casually placed in the corner and was not even counted as one of the prizes for this tournament, Kagome took it in her hand curiously and looked it over.

“This is my magic weapon.”

The little water god immediately jumped over Kagome's shoulder and hugged the Spear of Yu tightly.

The moment his body touched the artifact, a light blue light emanated from it.

The next moment, the body suddenly grew larger and returned to the size of an adult.

"Finally...I'm finally back!"

Thinking about his experiences over the past week, the Water God felt like crying.

But when I thought of the brighter future, a strong sense of motivation rose in my heart.

In short, first determine the doctrine, then gather your subordinates back, and move forward step by step.

Well...there are so many things I don’t understand about missionary work, so I must ask these people about it.

While deep in thought, he suddenly noticed a half-open wooden box in the corner of the warehouse.

Inside the wooden box, there was a feather robe.

"Why is Tian Zhi Yu Yi here?"

"This is a gift from the Hojo family after they surrendered. Although it is a rare treasure, because the style is a bit old-fashioned and difficult to match with clothes, no one wants it, so it has been left here. 佄"

"what..."

Kagome looked embarrassed when she heard the second half of Yemen's words.

The style is old-fashioned and difficult to match with clothes. Isn’t this what you said yourself?

It’s okay if I say it myself, but when I hear others repeating it, I feel a little embarrassed for some reason.

"Miss Mizukami, do you want the Heavenly Feather Robe? We can give it to you."

"Eh...? Is this really okay? This is the Heavenly Feather Robe."

As soon as he finished speaking, he thought of what Ye Men had just said, and the Water God fell silent instantly.

I always feel uncomfortable when I see that I treasure something that others discard as trash.

"Of course, we can't use it anyway, and it will just gather dust if we leave it here."

Seeing that the water god remained silent, Kagome smiled and took the feather robe from the box and draped it over her shoulders.

"It suits Miss Water God's temperament very well. It looks very good on you."

"Thanks..."

Knowing that nothing she said was malicious, the Water God hesitated but did not refuse.

Although he felt a little embarrassed and ashamed, the Heavenly Feather Robe was a rare treasure and was no less valuable than his own Spear of Yu.

If it's someone else's thing, I'll just take a second look at it at most.

But since it was given to me, it is naturally difficult to refuse, and I must cherish it.

"I have seen a similar heavenly feather robe before, but that feather robe has always been worn by the celestial maiden."

"...Wait, this isn't going to be that one, is it?"

The Water God's expression froze for a moment, and he began to examine it carefully. The more he looked, the more it resembled the one worn by the celestial being.

"The Heavenly Feathered Robe is from heaven. If it was really lost by the celestial maiden, she must be very worried. When she comes looking for it later, I will return it to her."

skyline?

Kagome was stunned for two seconds, then quickly reacted.

It is normal that in this era there are monsters, ghosts, gods, the underworld, and even the heaven.

However, is it true that the Heavenly Feather Robe is related to the heaven?

"I remember the Heaven's Feather Robe was from the Tale of the Bamboo Cutter. Princess Kaguya put on the Heaven's Feather Robe and then forgot all her past experiences in the human world and ascended to heaven."

"That's just a story." Yemen interrupted with a smile, "Just like the fire rat fur coat, hasn't it always been worn by Inuyasha?"

"Come to think of it, the goddess herself actually fits the legend of Princess Kaguya very well."

"It's a pity that the goddess is long gone."

"Fifty years ago, a celestial maiden came from heaven to bathe in a hot spring on earth. A monster named Kamiya set his eyes on her immortal body. He conspired with Naraku, but was more skilled than him and ate the celestial maiden's body first, driving Naraku away."

"After that, they discovered that the goddess's heavenly feather robe had been stolen by the villagers, so they went on a killing spree and killed everyone in the village."

"Because his methods were too cruel, he was sealed away by a wizard named Mi Fan."

"Hmm... This place is quite consistent with the legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, but Shen Jiuye is a monster. He is not as stupid as the Weaver Girl. If his clothes are stolen, he will marry the other party."

"That's more in line with reality."

"Is this... true?" The Water God looked at Ye Men solemnly and said in a deep voice, "If the goddess is really possessed by a monster, this is no small problem."

"That was fifty years ago. Shen Jiuye is still sleeping in the Mirror of Life. If no one wakes her up, she will probably continue sleeping."

"That's not what I'm talking about. Although I'm not familiar with the goddess, I just want to know whether what you said is true or not."

"Of course it's real. This is the feathered robe of the goddess. The man who peeped at the goddess bathing stole her feathered robe and wanted to use it to force her to marry him. Later, the whole village was killed by Shen Jiuye. After several twists and turns, it came here."

"The goddess was actually swallowed by a monster?"

Although it felt unbelievable, when he thought about how he, the great Water God, had everything taken away and was sealed away by the snake demon under his command, he subconsciously believed what Ye Men said.

My own experience is too similar to that of the goddess.

However, he still had a chance, and no one could predict what the goddess was doing now.

Perhaps her soul was still lingering in her body, perhaps it was thrown out and sealed by Shen Jiuye, or perhaps it had been completely devoured.

"I have seen the goddess once before in heaven, but I didn't expect that she would encounter something like this in the human world."

"Just as monsters look down on humans, the gods also look down on monsters. This matter is too serious. I will rush to heaven immediately and report to the gods."

"Is there a shrine nearby? It must be a shrine of the true god."

A true god? A shrine?

This familiar word made Ye Men subconsciously think of the settings in Noragami.

"Do gods have to pass through the shrine to enter the heavens?"

"Yes. If there is no shrine, it will just be a wild god."

This is really Noragami’s setting.

By the way, is there a Yato in this world?

If so, that would be interesting.

However, judging from the performance in the work alone, the god in Noragami cannot defeat the big monster in Inuyasha, right?

"The heaven you are talking about, do you mean the heaven among the three realms of heaven, earth and man, or the Takama-ga-hara where the eight million gods of Japan live?"

"??? How do you know so much?"

The Water God looked at Ye Men in astonishment, thought for a moment, and explained:

"Both. Takama-ga-hara is part of the entire heaven, corresponding to the East in the human world. In the west, there is the heaven that governs the entire east, and Takama-ga-hara is also a vassal of the heaven. Further west, there is a Buddhist holy place called Reiyama."

"I will report the matter of the angel to Takamagahara, and then Takamagahara should send someone down to the mortal world."

"If the gods of Takamagahara can't handle it, the next one to come will be the gods of heaven."

"Also, Takamagahara doesn't have eight million gods. Only the true gods who own shrines are qualified to be listed in Takamagahara."

There is even one in heaven?

The world is more magnificent than you can imagine.

Realizing this, Ye Men's mood also became excited.

"I will have someone build a shrine for you. What are the specific requirements? If you have nothing else to do, you might as well go to the construction site to supervise it and see what it will look like after it is built."

Can you supervise the work yourself?

The water god's eyes lit up. If that was the case, perhaps a large shrine could be built.

"Thank you. I'll be polite then."

All the hard work over the past few months has finally paid off, and now I can finally enjoy the sweetness of the moment.

Chapter 73 Let’s go to heaven together

"Where's Yemon? Why aren't he and Kagome here?"

Fairy Lingyue looked around in surprise and couldn't help asking:

"Wasn't he quite excited just now? He kept talking about who would win and which monster he was more optimistic about?"

"Maybe... you found something more interesting?" Yuyuko chuckled. "Men usually get bored easily. If you want to keep his heart firmly in mind, you must always keep things fresh."

Although there was no evidence, Fairy Lingyue always felt that she was hinting at something.

"Do you think...he's tired of me?"

"That's not the case. Although you always wear the same clothes, and you only use the same two positions, and you're not very proactive, you have a good temperament and figure, so you are attractive to some extent."

Seeing the shame, hesitation and a hint of "I see" on her face, Yuyuko's smile grew wider.

"Compared to letting the other person take the initiative, I think it's faster for me to take the initiative. What do you think?"
