Chapter 50: Gifts
"Okay, okay, anyway, don't be too curious, with my wisdom to know people, I'm afraid it's not so easy to get away, if you still don't know anything, I can't judge anything, and although cultivation is a very personal and very private matter, I don't dare to make a categorical guarantee whether you can reach the end, but I can still help you with four or five percent of the certainty."

"Ahem, don't just say nice things about Cuixiang, I don't really care about the practice itself, and the reason why I'm working the training of the Hakurei Shrine Maiden is also to better complete my duties and not want to make a mess, so it would be nice if you could give some constructive advice on magic research......"
"Ah, then you can't embarrass me, I don't know anything about magic, and I don't want to study it, your Caucasian way of thinking makes people unable to adapt to it, even a true god and true immortal ghost king like me is not so easy to get along with you."
"You're so lacking in curiosity!"
"Hey, isn't cultivating to be out of the mundane just to do whatever you want and no longer need to be swayed by your own desires? It is true that even if you are otherworldly, you don't necessarily have to be mortal, but," she paused, "desire will haunt the mundane, but it won't bother people like me anymore, unless, well...... Unless, like people like Murasaki and Kanako, they have a more thorough desire in their practice. β
"Anyway, you can learn what you want to learn, and you don't bother to look at what you don't want to know, that's what it means, right, you've transcended your innate biological desires, right?"
"Magicians are really good at discovering and summarizing, and although your statement is not in tune with the common beliefs, it is not wrong at all."
"Then forget it, don't embarrass you, and finally correct your wording, if I am strictly classified, I should belong to the mixed race of Anglo-Saxons and Celts, the range of Caucasian races is too wide!"
"Yes, is that so...... You don't have to be so imposing......"
"Huh? I'm sorry, but when I face Miss Cuixiang, I will become strong unconsciously, eh, you are also an old-timer, and it is obviously your fault to be so weak. β
"......" she had an embarrassed expression, "This, this is because I didn't have a good foundation for communication at the beginning, which caused me to become more and more vulnerable at the shrine, and it is natural that you don't think about our face as the leader of the ghost clan at all, so failed!" β
"It's called convention, and it's not so easy to change your attitude now, uh, anyway, the interaction between Gensokyo residents shouldn't have a hypocritical element in it, this is what Miss Aozaki reminded me, the relationship between people should be kept whatever it is, whether it's big or small, whether it's the master and servant reversed, or whether it's the chaos of generations, and Qiluno still argues with the gods from time to time, if she suddenly becomes cautious and cautious, isn't it the same as changing to a completely different person, and Qiluno doesn't exist! If Gensokyo residents are as particular about so many stinky problems as outsiders, where is the value of Gensokyo's existence! What is the meaning of being separated from the outside world? β
"Huh? Haha, what you said is getting more and more reasonable, I think even Purple can't refute you anything, Miss Witch has improved. β
"Uh-huh, I've won awards."
Conversations like this, which don't have much nutrition to pass the time, are also a common occurrence between two less authentic shrine maidens.
When I returned to the main hall of the shrine, I was surprised to see an A3-sized piece of white paper on the low table, and Miss Patchy was demonstrating her drawing skills to Miss Aozaki using a special technique.
Why a special technique? Because the few brushes that wriggle and wriggle on the paper are not controlled by the hand, although similar techniques seem to me to be nothing special, but I am not very good at visual arts, and I may be more delicate than Patchy in the same multi-line operation, but in terms of freelance painting, Miss Patsy's quality has left me in several ways.
"What a genius magician who knows art is jealous!" I learned from Miss Hashihime to whisper that her knowledge of science and chemistry and her artistic attainments were more than beginner-level and graceful, and this jealous guy was worthy of being a natural nobleman, and her heart continued to be jealous and her eyes were transformed into a ray of jealousy enveloping the purple witch who was staring at the table with her hands on her chest.
She even had time to complain: "Don't stare at you, you don't pretend to be an underground person at all." β
"What are you? Improvisation? β
"Ah, uh, it was Miss Pache and I who talked about my work and talked about painting in passing, and Miss Patchouli agreed to give me an impression of Gensokyo as a souvenir......"
"Oh, I see," but I turned my head and thought that Miss Witch was still trying to show off. Will the silent and steady witch lady be so unsteady and casually showmanship? And isn't it more dangerous to give Miss Aozaki an impression of Gensokyo than to let her know Gensokyo in depth? Miss Hua Fan's warning is still in my ears!
"Your worries are unfounded, it's just an impromptu graffiti." Patchy instantly guessed my thoughts, and her words fell, and she had put the brush back away, and a brightly colored ordinary oil painting appeared on the table.
"Hmmβit's graffiti, the woods are not like woods but like the backyard of a deserted devil's house, and the rolling hills are they? I thought there was a pumpkin hanging in the sky. The small and delicate house that sits on that small tomb can't be the Red Devil Pavilion...... Anyway, I can't tell where this painting is. I said critically.
"It's modeled after Fran's graffiti."
"Huh?" As soon as I spoke, I realized that Patchy was not telling me with her mouth, but using the secret transmission technique of the magic thread, and she obviously didn't intend to tell Miss Aosaki.
"You know what I'm trying to do, right? Don't say anything superfluous, besides, it won't be dangerous for her, if Miss Aozaki's manga artist does come into contact with Remi and Fran, the painting will attract Remi and convey my meaning to her, and they won't hurt innocent people. "It's still a secret transmission.
"I knew you weren't going to be unscrupulous...... It's up to you to deliver artwork or something, be careful not to let the ghosts and ghosts from the outside world hit people with their ideas, and cause trouble to people. I imprinted a more convenient message into Patchy's mind, and she gave me a disdainful look and nodded slightly.
Miss Patsy's layout level is really not clever, and the approach is really not in line with her usual personality, and I can also think of her eldest lady without reminding me for a few more seconds.
Miss Aoizaki was very pleased with the witch's gift, "It's good to have a weird style, and there will be no such exquisite works in the world's limited edition fairy tale picture books, it's just too appetizing!" Besides, the current underground and above-ground markets all recognize this kind of post-modern retro-style painting, ah, I'm sorry, I won't sell it, although it may be strange for customers to hang it, but I don't often have customers in my house......"
Is this the excitement of being incoherent after receiving the gift of your favor?
