"Emissary?"

There was confusion in Wen's voice, but this was also something that could not be helped. Anyone who is suddenly summoned to their boss after breakfast and given a task without knowing anything will be confused.

Of course, Moon's boss is not a very unreasonable person. As long as she assigns things to her subordinates, she will always explain them well.

"That's right. The messenger who went to guard the Ya Shrine."

It's a beautiful mansion on the hill of Mt. Yokai, and now two women are sitting and talking.

And the person who explained in a smooth and clear voice was the Great Tengu, who commanded the Raventengu.

The Tengu have the Tengu, who is the supreme leader, but there are also the Great Tengu who are assigned different departments under the Tengu. They can all be said to be high-ranking figures in Tengu society.

However, as a high-level executive, the guy in front of him looks too young.

The side ponytail with long white hair tied up on the left side of the head with a string is really beautiful, but this hairstyle only highlights the youthfulness of the person.

If a young girl is too old, if a young girl is a little too young, her appearance is in between, and she looks like she is in the age of about fourteen.

But it's just a look, Shotimaru knows that the other party is a cut older than himself who is more than a thousand years old, and he has a wise heart under this youthful appearance.

But Wen also knows that I am afraid that not many people will really regard her as a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl. Because the eyes that are as beautiful as red agate have never revealed the innocence that a girl should have...... Some are just unhurried and unhurried that can't be seen through.

This can be said to be her forte. Because she was born to be a high-ranking person, she has a momentum that is not angry and self-assured. That's the kind of temperament that only people who are conscious and aware of being above others will have. To put it simply, she is very majestic, and her words alone can shock the forgetful fanatics.

And her voice also has a maturity that doesn't match her appearance, at first glance it sounds like a twenty-year-old adult woman speaking.

"The main thing is to talk about the shrine worship path that was temporarily put on hold due to differences between Mt. Yokai and the shrine."

Sitting cross-legged and putting her hands on her knees, she said in a relaxed manner.

"We were worried that the pilgrimage path at the shrine would bring unnecessary friction to the inside of Mt. Yokai...... However, for the sake of getting along in the future, we decided to find a step down for everyone -- of course, we can't let the shrine side be too proud...... Otherwise, it will be very troublesome in the future."

Speaking of the word trouble, her face couldn't help but show deep helplessness.

The so-called Moriya Shrine is a shrine that suddenly appeared on Mt. Yokai not long ago.

Although the current Yokai Mountain can almost be said to be the territory of the Tengu, this does not mean that the Tengu will always monitor every part of the Yokai Mountain, so since the oni left the Yokai Mountain, the place where the demons originally lived has been empty, and now there are some gods living there...... For example, the pair of twin gods associated with autumn, and the god of bad luck that absorbs bad luck.

However, none of them are particularly powerful existences, nor are they particularly vicious existences. Therefore, the tengu also recognized the alien residence, and as long as they lived according to the tengu's rules, then there was nothing wrong with allowing them to live.

However, this original calm was shattered by unexpected and sudden events.

Suddenly, there is a large shrine on Yokai Mountain, and there are two gods enshrined in it--good, this is not a big deal.

However, the difference this time is that those two gods are not the same as the gods that lived in the previous days of Yokai Mountain.

The two sisters, Qiu Jingye and Qiu Suizi, are also gods, but to be honest...... They are gods that are too closely related to human life, so they don't have much faith at all. Relatively speaking, it is also very weak.

In other words, they are docile and harmless. Therefore, Tengu can safely accept their residence in Mt. Youkai.

But those two gods, one is called Yasaka Kanako, and the other is called the god of Suwako.

The former is obviously the god of the mountain and the god of wind and rain, but it seems to have the attributes of the god of war, while the latter appears to be the god of agriculture at first glance, but there are still signs of being a god of evil from the aura.

To put it bluntly, these two guys are strong.

Although he is a guy from the outside world, he can still retain such strength in the outside world where his faith is lacking, and he is afraid that he was a very powerful god in ancient times.

It's really not safe to let this kind of guy live here, but the conclusion based on the observation of Shotimaru is ...... These two guys are not belligerent, you can negotiate and try. Then after a series of events, it was now certain that they could settle in Youkai Mountain.

Although she didn't know what the Heavenly Demon Lady thought...... But there's no need to worry about that. What we need to do now is to make those two gods not too complacent.

"Of course, I've already transcribed the solution, you just need to pass it on. As someone who has a relationship with them on several sides, this is not a difficult task."

As she spoke, she pulled out a scroll with a red rope tied to it.

For the text who became attached to the Shouya Shrine because of the recent mutation, this is indeed a difficult task to describe. But it doesn't seem to be particularly easy...... Because not to mention the little girl, those two gods are not easy to fool.

However, looking directly into the eyes of the Great Tengu, Shotimaru Fumimi knew it...... You don't have a choice.

"I know what you mean—do you have any other commands?"

Wen didn't complain about anything, but asked about other matters to pay attention to in a serious tone.

To Wen, who calmly accepted his orders, the big tengu smiled happily.

"Very well--if only you could look like this on a regular basis. Then I don't have anything to say, so...... I said, don't let those two gods be too arrogant."

As he said this, the atmosphere around the Great Tengu suddenly changed.

To put it simply, the original sense of oppression that makes people want to be cautious in their words and actions is gone.

This means that at this moment, the Great Tengu is no longer talking to her as the boss of the Shotimaru Fumi, but chatting as a friend.

"Is this a mission?"

"No, it doesn't count. Strictly speaking, it's just my own little wish."

"What...... Then there's no need to do it."

"Hey! I say...... Do you still want this month's pay?"

Leaning forward, the Great Tengu smiled sinister at Wen.

However, Wen was unmoved and still maintained a safe attitude.

Because they are talking to each other as friends now, Wen does not use honorifics anymore.

"Even if you don't pay me, I can live...... Unlike you, I have a lot of friends."

Speaking of which, her tone couldn't help but take on a bit of superiority. Although she knew that it was not good to say this, she didn't think that the other party would be someone who cared about such a thing.

The person who can be called a friend next to the big tengu in a high position is probably only a life-shooting pill. As for the text......

"I'll leave it aside for a moment, how speechless is your plan to live on the help of your friends...... What I'm saying is, do you have a lot of friends?"

Rather than being angry at Bun's superiority, the Great Tengu first showed blatant suspicion. It always seeped into the eyes of scrutinizing eyes, and this time there was no exception to look up and down the text. It seems that this can see through whether her words are true or not.

"At least more than yours."

"That's true."

「…… Excuse me, what do you say?"

Shotimaru blinked in confusion. This expression appears in her, who always shows shrewdness and cleverness, which is especially cute.

It's not that she didn't hear what the big tengu said.

It's just that the other party's attitude of not refuting and being too blunt to admit made her very uncomfortable.

With her understanding of this woman, the other party should have prepared a series of verbal swords and swords at this moment, ready to refute herself. I want to admit Wen's words so simply...... Only one thing can be said.

…… The other party must have other plans.

Wen unconsciously narrowed his eyes, waiting for the next sentence of the Great Tengu. Now she's feeling like a boxer waiting for her opponent to punch.

"I said you're right, you do have more "friends" than I do."

The tone of the Great Tengu can be described as very sincere, but her expression is the kind of banter with a hint of teasing. It was impossible to believe every word she said.

However, this kind of trivial matter didn't care about Shotimaru, she just waited for the other party's next sentence with all her attention.

"What I want to know, though, is that man named Flying Eight Spirits also your friend?"

「…… What do you mean?"

"It's not interesting, I see that he1 often appears in your newspaper, so if you have a chance, introduce him to me."

The Great Tengu patted the shoulder of the Shotimarubun with a smile on his face, but he didn't notice the insect-eating gloomy expression on the other party's face.

No, it's not so much that he didn't notice it, but it was the expression on his face at this time that was the real reason why Daitengu said this.

She carefully observed the expression of the Shotimaru with a hidden gaze.

Elegant beauty has long been replaced by an unpleasant gloom that is no longer the usual ease and ostentatiousness.

The big tengu knew the girl in front of him very well.

Shotimaru's will is quite strong, even if she is slandered and spoken ill of, she can ignore it with a smile. The Great Tengu actually admires such a life-shooting pill text.

However, in fact, she is not always smiling in every situation. The current situation is a good proof of this.

"What are you going to do?"

The gaze towards the Great Tengu was clearly tinged with concern...... But what was she worried about?

The Great Tengu, who thought he knew everything, resisted the urge to laugh out loud. To be honest, it was hard work, but when she thought of seeing Wen's bitter expression, she also felt that this hard work had its due value.

Removing her right hand from Wen's shoulder, she opened her hands to Wen as if to express her helplessness.

"Actually, it's not a big deal. The old people in the clan are always urging me to get married and leave my bloodline. It seems that they have an unnecessary sense of crisis because of the current fight. What a hassle. Although I have some power to choose who I want, it's really helpless to be stared at like this."

This is not a lie.

The Great Tengu itself is an aristocratic family from the Tengu society, and the orthodox head of the Dou family. As the head of the family, she is indeed burdened with the hope of giving birth to the next bloodline. However, she herself had no idea about it.

Although it is true that the female body has the function of giving birth to life, this function must be activated by the opposite sex...... Unfortunately, she has yet to meet a man who has attracted her attention.

As a parent, she originally had the majesty to suppress all dissent, but unfortunately, the situation of the Minato family greatly stimulated the hearts of the elders in the clan.

Originally, it was a division of the Gundou clan and served as a guard, and later it was split off as an independent martial arts clan. Now there is only one person left.

That clan is not good at politics, and the people are not prosperous, but the appearance rate of big monsters is very high. The previous Heavenly Demon was also served by the second daughter of the Minato family, Minato Douguang.

However, with the stupid battle more than a thousand years ago, the previous Heavenly Demon and his brother all returned to another place, and now there is only one person left in the Minato family, which can be said to have long existed in name only.

The situation of the family with the same bloodline in the past, needless to say, made the Jie Dou family deeply warned. Therefore, the proposal in that regard, the Great Tengu has long been tired of listening to the mouths of the people of the clan.

It's not that I don't understand their hard work, but Otengu always has the unhappiness of being used as a prop to have a child, and he doesn't have a favorite object, so it's over when he hears it in his ears.

Of course, it was not because she suddenly sympathized with the good intentions of the elders in the clan, but because she wanted to shoot Maruwen badly.

"I don't see what it has to do with Feili."

"No, it has a lot to do with it. I can include him in the list of marriages."

It looks remarkable. But in fact, there are now zero people on the list of marriage partners of the Great Tengu...... If you add a man, it's one.

"Are you serious?! I'm telling you, he's terrible!"

"Bad?"

The Great Tengu tilted his head to look at the Shotimaru Wen who shouted out loudly.

This childish gesture occasionally appears when she is not so majestic, so it is not an unusual move.

"I want to ask you, do you hate him? text."

"Uh---can you not answer that question?"

"Sometimes not answering is an answer. And...... Even if I can't accept that you said that he was very bad, in the end, it will be a matter for the future, at this stage, Bayi Feili is not a good marriage partner."

"Nice?"

Why didn't I see it---although I didn't say this sentence, Wen's unhappy face almost wrote these words clearly.

"Of course. It's beautiful, and it's strong, and it also has a good relationship with other big monsters in Gensokyo. It doesn't matter if I have assets or not, I'm not so stingy that I don't have enough assets for my husband. So he is the best candidate in that regard...... Of course, this is when I haven't been exposed to his shortcomings."

Putting aside the theory of feelings, Otengu's words are completely based on reality, so that the text can't find a little fault.

But then, the next sentence of the Great Tengu made Wen have the urge to be angry from his heart and evil to the side of his heart.

"But---the most important reason why I chose him is because I want to see Wen You's gloomy face."

She said this without shame.

-- If the corners of her mouth hadn't overflowed with the childlike smile that only appears after a prank has been successful, it would have looked even more solemn.

"--Deep Feather."

Instead of getting angry, Shotimaru called out the name of the Great Tengu in a gentle voice. At the same time, her hands gently caressed the delicate neck of the Great Tengu.

But if the strength of those hands wasn't "gentle" enough to twist steel, she would have been happier.

"I was wrong, I was wrong! Don't laugh like that! It's kind of scary!"

Shooting Maru Wen with a gentle smile, it is obvious that she is not normal at this moment.

In the face of his friend's anger, the Great Tengu - Jidou Fukayu simply gave up his dignity.

…… After a stalemate of about ten minutes, she finally calmed down the emotions of Shotimaru.

"Heck, I was just trying to play a joke on you."

"Then don't joke about this kind of thing, okay?"

Facing the pink lips pursed and the disgruntled shotmaru wen. The big tengu could only smile apologetically.

"Got it, got it. But let's be honest...... I'd really like to meet that man and see what kind of guy he is that fascinates you so much."

"Although I'd love to say no...... But we'll see you when we should, that's all I can say."

"Hahaha, that's true. So, let's stop here."

As soon as the words fell, although the smile did not change. But there is no doubt that she has entered the state of great majesty that she usually has.

"Don't forget the task I gave you. text."

"Don't worry, you can't forget it. I'll go now."

As she spoke, she rose from her kneeling position.

"Don't forget to put on your formal attire."

The Great Tengu said.

At this moment, Wen is still wearing that shirt and short skirt, although it is very good-looking. However, since it is a messenger representing the tengu, it is natural to wear the tengu's formal attire.

「……」

But Wen did not respond. After just one glance at the Great Tengu, he turned around and walked out of the house.

What the hell does that look mean, to be honest, the big tengu doesn't understand, but-

"I'm serious! Wen, put me in a formal suit! ――――Do you still want this year's salary?!"

The girl's roar is enough to reach a long distance, but can it be conveyed to the Anemo Maiden who has soared in the sky at this time...... What a problem.

P.S: Let's be a little more violent! 0w0
