Monster Mountain, Moriya Shrine -

"The gods of the world came to the humble house, and I am ashamed to miss it. Faced with the sudden visit of Sakura, Sanae greeted her with the traditional rites of the shrine with some trepidation.

"I heard that your shrine is trying to compete for my faith while I'm not here, and that's true, right?" ”

"Yes, it is. I am a newcomer and I would like to ask for your forgiveness. ”

"Well, as long as Reimu and Purple are here, I don't think you can make any big waves, a world doesn't need too many branches of faith, speaking of-" Sakura looked around pretending to be serious, "What about the big snake and the little frog?"

"Well, knowing that you can't collect faith in Gensokyo anyway, Kanako-sama and Suwako-sama went out on a trip and tried to use the power of existence to sublimate. Let me watch my family here and build a good relationship with my neighbors. Sanae replied truthfully.

"I think so, speaking of which, there is nothing I can look up to in your abilities. Purple has agreed to let you live here. If you want me to say anything, I have to add one more condition. Sakura Misaka said menacingly. ”

"What are the conditions?" Sanae was very nervous, if she couldn't fulfill her request and was driven back to the world of Jiaotian, she might not be fine, but Kanako and Suwako were not far from disappearing.

"It's easy—" Sakura suddenly put her head in front of Sanae, and her and aggressive expression made Sanae's body lean back a little.

"Tell me, what the hell can make Quata so thoughtful?" Sakura pointed to the "Quata" headdress on Sanae's head, and said with a smile, her voice a little excited.

"Huh, that's it?" Sanae felt a little out of tune.

"That's it, or do you want to add something more?" Sakura's smiling face seemed to darken for a moment.

"No, this request must be completed by Sanae Kazuya, who is the wind of Moriya Shrine. After confirming that it was true, Sanae immediately replied with a seemingly energetic look.

Sanae didn't expect that the gods of this world actually liked her frog headdress, if she was allowed to wear it, maybe it would form a trend that swept the world, maybe she could collect faith in this form without conflict? Okay, I have to admit that Sanae, who is completely unable to collect faith in this world, is about to break through the sky. But fortunately, before she took the first step in her thoughts, she was declared miscarried-

Three hours later—

Sakura directly in OTZ posture, lying in front of the mirror, laughed miserably and said, "Why...... Why does Sanae look so elegant and generous when she wears it, and when I wear it, it looks like I'm back in the days of elementary school students?"

"Uh...... Elementary school students are also cute............"

"I said, since you can't get it, it's better to destroy it............"

“………………”

"Just kidding. ”

"Please don't make such a horrible joke...... Misaka-sama............"

"Well, I'm not such a stingy god. And then came the good thing. Sakura put away her black aura and sat up, "I heard that even if you can't collect faith, you've done your duty as a shrine, except for the matter of the Monster Mountain, have you been retreating from some plane invaders that appear every now and then?"

This is what began to happen a few days before Sakura came back to her senses.,The invaders are a group of monsters of average strength.,Basically, a leader with a similar IQ to a human commanding a group of low-IQ soldiers.,Specializing in hunting girls with double ponytails.。

Because the invaders are not very powerful, and the invasion sites are all in the mountain of monsters, before Reimu can make a move, Sanae robs the monster in order to increase his prestige. However, since there is no need to worry about the matter of faith, Reimu himself is at ease, so he does not interfere.

Even if there are fish that slip through the net, what kind of place is the mountain of youkai? Are the two-ponytail girls there easy to mess with? The two-ponytail tengu with Himetang and the two-ponytail kappa led by Kawashiro Natori still tyrannize them. However, many of the monsters that were cleaned up by the double ponytail girls had a happy look, which was super goosebumps.

Before visiting the Moriya Shrine, Sakura first asked Yakumo about it, but Yakumo didn't seem to know much, because as long as these guys were injured to a certain extent, they would explode directly, and they didn't even leave a soul fragment, and they couldn't be caught and tortured. However, Yakumo said that this might be an opportunity to build good relations with other forces outside the world, if there are enough double ponytails.

Sakura's understanding of this is: This is the meaning of doing business with a double ponytail dealer?

"Yes, there is such a thing, the basic cycle is fixed, and their leaders all call themselves 'evil ××' and," Sanae found a blue eight-sided crystal out of nowhere, "and every time they retreat, their leader's body will be accompanied by an explosion, and this kind of thing will appear. ”

"What is this?" Sakura took the translucent blue eight-sided crystal, put it in the sunlight and swept it with her pupil technique a few times, "Is it a new power system?" It seems to be a kind of spiritual power...... Sakura Misaka analyzed. ”

"By the way, this is a recent acquisition, I remember that the owner of this crystal called himself a sin hydra, and said excitedly, 'I am a yin and yang attribute, but the sin sea dragon I serve is a giant... Milk attribute, and then Edime Kiel is all double ponytail attribute!' Such inexplicable words. ”

"Isn't this the moe attribute in ACG culture?!" said Misaka Sakura embarrassedly. ”

"Aha, it seems so, but I'm not a house in my hometown, and I run a declining shrine, so I don't know much about it. Sanae said.

"Well, forget it, the mystery of this power is not very high, and it is not very difficult to use it. I think it's a periodic invasion, right? How long is it until the next one? Sakura Misaka asks here. "Well, it seems that this should be your own responsibility for perception, right? Forget it, don't pay too much attention to the small details.

"Half a day. ”

"I see," Sakura said, getting up and walking towards the door, and at the end, "next time, none of you will make a move." Sakura Misaka ordered. ”

After walking for a while, Sakura confirmed that no youkai would see her for the time being, so she separated a clone with almost no ability at all, and the strength was about the same as that of a Level 3 ability, and threw the crystal in her hand towards the clone-

Sakura's clone's left eye flashed red, and she sucked the crystal into an energy particle, and then—

Because there are basically no other abilities, Sakura's clone received this power 100 percent, and her body shone with a black and white light! The first change was that the single ponytail on her head faded and became a pair of long, flowing double ponytails............
