Time passed in a hurry, and soon it was time for the festival held at Moriya Shrine.

Sasha, who was wearing a kimono and two double ponytails, stood at the door and urged Asakura and Lisa, who had not yet come out, "Hurry up, Mom and Dad." The celebration is about to begin. ”

Asakura and Lisa came down from upstairs, except for the casual clothes that Asakura Ye used to wear. Lisa deliberately dressed up, her long hair that used to be tied in a double ponytail is now coiled on her head, fixed with a hairpin, and she also deliberately wears light makeup, and wears the same kimono as Sasha.

Asakura Ye said to Sasha, who had summoned him to participate in the celebration, "Let's talk about it first. Play and play, but don't leave your parents' field of vision. ”

"Got it. Sasha nodded dissatisfiedly, and at the same time complained a little, "Really, don't be afraid that I'll get lost." ”

Asakura Ye walked quickly in front of Sasha, if it had been in the past, Sasha would have climbed on his shoulder and rode on his neck, but her current clothes would not allow her to do so.

The two looked at Lisa, who was not used to clothes and could only take small steps when she walked, and Ma Cangye looked at her slow steps, "If you are not used to it, change into civilian clothes." ”

"It's not that I'm not used to it. Lisa suddenly walked quickly to Asakura Ha's side and smiled at him, "It's just that I haven't gotten used to it yet." ”

Asakura took Lisa's hand, which was a further sublimated relationship between the two during this time.

The three of them went to the place of the celebration together, Moriya Shrine.

After climbing a long staircase, the three of them finally saw the appearance of Moriya Shrine. Although the shrine does not have many worshippers, it is bustling with people because of the festival.

Dressed in a shrine maiden costume and holding a royal coin, she has long green hair that is no more than her shoulders and waist, and she also wears a headdress with the image of a frog on her head, and her left hair is tied up in a snake-like object and hangs down in front of her, and she looks delicate, and from the outside, she should be only 15 or 6 years old.

Standing not far from the steps, the shrine maiden greeted the people who participated in the festival, and they smiled in return to her enthusiasm. Of course, there were also some frivolous teenagers of her age standing next to her, like bees surrounding the blooming flowers, and the shrine maidens were at a loss.

When Sasha saw the witch, she was instantly attracted to her, looked at her intently, and couldn't help but praise, "What a beautiful big sister." ”

I don't know if it's a reason to get rid of the teenagers around me, or if the shrine maiden thinks that people are almost already here and don't need to stay where they are.

She walked straight up to Sasha and smiled at her, "Thank you for the compliment, little sister. ”

The teenagers who were left behind by the shrine maiden glared at Asakura Ye unwillingly, but after seeing Lisa, the corners of their mouths raised a flirtatious smile. Just as they were about to walk here, they seemed to see some strange sight, and each of them turned pale and sweated on their foreheads, and fled down the mountain with a frightened expression.

Looking at the panicked expressions of those teenagers, as if they were running for their lives, the shrine maiden looked in the direction of the shrine and muttered, "Kanako-sama..."

Although the shrine maiden muttered in a very low voice, she was still heard by Asakura Ha, and he asked suspiciously, "Who is Kanako-sama?"

Compared to Asakura Ha, he didn't know what had just happened, and he just left as if the teenagers were suddenly in a hurry or had a stomachache, but Lisa just clearly sensed that a force had just come from inside the shrine, shocking the teenagers who planned to harass the shrine.

When the shrine maiden heard Asakura Ye's question, she shook her head and waved her hand in a panic, "It's nothing... Are you here for the first time?"

Sasha and Asakura nodded, and after confirming that the owner of the power just now didn't want to hurt them, Lisa also nodded.

"Do you need me to show you around the shrine?"

There are not many people who come to the shrine, and most of the people who attend the festival are almost the same as them, and they are visiting for the first time. Hearing that the shrine maiden was willing to take them to the shrine alone, Asakura asked embarrassedly, "Will it disturb you?"

But Sasha, who was next to him, nodded without thinking about it, "Okay." ”

"It's okay. ”

The shrine maiden turned her head to look at the lively area, filled with all kinds of different stalls, the shrine gate was obviously open, but it was deserted inside, no one wanted to enter at all, only a few people were there in the money box, throwing coins, clasping their hands, silently making a wish.

Obviously, she should be happy about the excitement in front of her, but she said with a melancholy face, "Everyone doesn't have much interest in the shrine, and they don't have much reverence for the gods." ”

Asakura Ha, who realized that he had said the wrong thing, lowered his head and apologized for his rudeness.

"If you don't mind, please show us around the inside of the shrine. ”

Lisa spoke next to her.

"Yes. The shrine maiden changed back to her original smile and introduced herself, "My name is Sanae Dongdongya, please advise." ”

"My name is Asakura Ye, you can call me Ah Ye, this is my wife, Lisa..."

"Wife... Wife!?" The smile on Sanae's face, after Asakura Ye said the relationship between Lisa and herself, she took a step back, looked at the two carefully, and said in surprise, "You two are husband and wife!?"

For Sanae's reaction, Asakura did not feel any dissatisfaction, and even got used to it a little. In the past, every time he said that he was already an adult, even an adult who was married and had children, people would always look at him with such eyes.

Knowing that the other party just regarded the three of them as brother and sister, Asakura Ye took out his wallet from his pocket and took out his ID card to show her, "I'm 33 years old this year. ”

Looking at the date of birth on the ID card, confirming that what Ma Cangye said was true, she looked at the two couples in front of her strangely, and said enviously, "It's really... It's well maintained. ”

Asakura Ye put the ID card back in place and said with a smile, "I'm shocked." ”

Sanae nodded, then made a gesture of please, "Please come with me." ”

The three of them followed Sanae and visited the shrine, although there were no believers here, the interior of the shrine was still very clean, and it was not difficult to see that all this was Sanae's work. Sanae also introduced them to the history of the shrine and made them understand that this shrine is dedicated to two gods, Yasaka Kanako and Suwako Ya.

After listening to Sanae's introduction to the history of the gods, the three of them also visited other places inside the shrine, and Sanae patiently explained to them the origin of the props and other items, as well as its glorious past.

Compared to Sasha and Asakura who listened carefully to Sanae's introduction, Lisa was not much interested in her introduction.

No matter how brilliant and powerful the gods in her mouth used to be, now they are slowly entering the age of technology, and supernatural powers have slowly disappeared from this world.

Now they are just surviving, and it is only a matter of time before they disappear.

While Asakura and Sasha were listening to Sanae's story, she was not interested in them, and her eyes shifted to look at other things nearby, and roughly swept the entire room, which seemed to display a collection of porcelain, such as bowls, teapots, vases, and sharp knives, swords, guns, and other weapons, as well as some paintings.

The things here are all collectible antiques that Lisa can tell at a glance, and if they are sold, Moriya Shrine will definitely become rich overnight.

But everything here is not a big deal to her, more ancient, more collectible things, there are quite a few in her space ring, these antiques are like air in front of her eyes, and they can be ignored directly.

But Lisa looked around boredly, and finally her eyes settled on a painting.

Inside the painting is a battlefield, the back of the man facing the audience, countless countless, and the disgusting face of the demons and monsters are pouring towards him like a spring. The man stood there alone, holding his weapon tightly in his right hand, fearless of everything in front of him, his lonely back, and a large number of demons and monsters set off his strength.

In this painting, you can see at a glance that it is a powerful warrior who is fighting against the demons and monsters in front of him for some reason.

Then the battle became a legend, and later generations imagined the scene and drew its heroic deeds.

She has seen this type of painting in many parts of the world, and there is nothing worth noting.

But the man's clothes and weapons shocked Lisa.

The black clothes are clothes that Asakura Ye hasn't worn for a long time.

The long hair that is scattered is somewhat similar to his current back.

The blade that revealed the red light was the Scarlet Moon that he had destroyed a long time ago.

Lisa frowned, moved there in surprise, stopped in front of the image, and took a closer look.

Sanae, who was still introducing with relish, and Asakura and Sasha, who were listening carefully, were puzzled by her sudden move.

The three of them walked up to Lisa's side and looked at the painting she cared about.

Those hateful-looking demons and monsters frightened the young Sasha in an instant, and she grabbed the hem of Ma Cangye's trousers, "It's terrifying. Father. ”

Before she had time to appreciate the painting, she hurriedly squatted down, blocked her vision with her body, and gently comforted, "Don't be afraid, Dad is here." Then he said to Sanae, "Thank you very much for showing us around the shrine and telling us so many interesting stories." ”

"It's okay, it's nice that someone wants to listen. Knowing that Asakura Ye was going to leave with the frightened Sasha, Sanae replied with a smile.

Seeing that Lisa was just staring at the painting and didn't want to leave, Asakura patted her on the shoulder. Lisa, who came back to her senses, said to him, "You take Sasha to play first, and I'll watch it here for a while." ”

Thinking that Lisa was interested in this type of thing, Asakura Ye didn't say anything, nodded, and left with Sasha.

As soon as Asakura Ye left, Lisa looked at the painting in front of her and asked, "What's the name of this painting?"

Sanae looked embarrassed and a little embarrassed, "This painting?

Just as she was about to say that she didn't know the origin of the painting, Lisa interrupted her and looked at the doorway, "I'm not asking you, I'm asking about the two gods standing over there. ”

In the originally empty doorway, there were tall and short women standing at some point, and they did not show any surprise that Lisa was aware of their presence.

She has short blue shawl hair with her hair stretched from side to side. On the head there is a straw rope like a hat, and on the right side of the rope, the leaves of red maple and silver apricot are decorated. Hitomi is a reddish eye that is close to brown. Behind it was a huge straw rope loop with a lot of paper hanging from it.

He has short blond neck-length hair, wears blue and white tones, wears white over-the-knee socks on his feet, and wears a hat with two eyeballs on his head, which gives the impression of a frog, and frogs depicted with birds and beasts all over his clothes.

Sanae looked at Risa in surprise, "Miss Risa can see Kanako-sama and Suwako-sama!?"

None of the three of them answered Sanae's surprise.

From Sanae's introduction, Lisa recognized at a glance that the older one was Yasaka Kaminako, and the younger one was Suwako Katsuya.

"It's a traverser. ”

"I have no ill will towards you, I'm just curious about the origin of that painting. ”

"Just the story of a ridiculously powerful human being. ”

"If you really want to know his deeds, you can go and see a book called Jianhao Who Fell into Shura, which was written based on him. ”

After learning that she could learn the story of the man in the painting, Lisa nodded to them in gratitude.

It's just written based on him, and there must have been a lot of opinions or deeds that don't match the author's own opinions, and even the name is decided by the author.

With a hint of luck, Lisa asked, "So... What is his real name?"

"You already know, so why bother. Without answering Lisa's question, the two gods said to Sanae, "Go ahead and prepare, let's make this celebration more lively." With that, he vanished.

Sanae bowed to Lisa and left the place as well. Lisa glanced at the painting, and was silent for a few seconds before moving her steps and leaving the place.
