Chapter 166: An Invitation to Worship

The light white crescent moon blows quietly through every corner of Mt. Inari, blowing the hair of the god who lies on his side on the red torii.

At night, the smell of earth and grass in Mt. Inari is unique to the air.

Lying on his side on top of the torii, Su Shang's gaze was on the "Sonnet" in his hand.

Next to him was a petite girl with beautiful long green hair.

And it's cute, it's really a very beautiful girl. Big eyes, green agate-like eyes, moist cherry red lips, milk-like silky and white dazzling skin, short white-green kimono with a lean fit, and more than anything else, a short green hair that looks like luxurious glasswork.

The girl's name is Mu Yu, and she is also Su Shang's divine envoy.

I used to follow Su Shang's grandmother, and I came back with Shui Yu two weeks ago.

It seems that he came with him voluntarily to serve Su Sheng better.

He's a very cheerful person.

Mu Yu's first impression of Su Sheng was this.

"Did Mu Yu ever have a 'fate' with humans?"

"Huh? With humans, yes! ”

Mu Yu nodded happily.

"It's a long, long time ago, but I was killed by that person after all, so I remember it clearly."

Faced with such an answer, Su Sheng suddenly didn't know what to say, although 'fate' is an existence that will naturally appear when it is related to people, but no one really wants to have such a 'fate'.

"Hee-hee, just kidding, joking, but how can I say that although I was just a little fox at the time, that person was very kind to me, even if I died, he buried my body well, and he was a very gentle person! It's just that the lifespan of human beings is already disappearing very quickly, and by the time I became a divine messenger and remembered him, he had already died. ”

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bring up your sadness."

Su Sheng sat up. Very sincere apologies.

Regardless of your identity, you remind the other person of sadness because of your own reasons. In the face of this situation, apologize no matter what.

"No, it's nothing. After all, it was a long time ago, but Wooga-sama, did you suddenly ask what happened to this? Came back late tonight. And there is the breath of other youkai and the Komachi dog other than Harune. ”

Probably because of the different direction of cultivation, the wood spirit has a strong sense of breath, and in addition to the breath, the perception ability in other aspects is far better than that of the earth and water masters.

Put the "Sonnet" in your hand together and set it aside. Sit up cross-legged, put your hands on your legs and hold your chin, and watch the people walking under the torii.

"Yes. Yes. ”

The night wind blew, and the trees of Mt. Inari rustled.

He also blew the leaves of the "Sonnet" and did not stop until it was halfway through.

Finally, Feng'er left.

"Sonnets" stopped on the night it was bookmarked.

There are beautiful verses on top of the bookmarks.

The morning dew is her call to me.

The breeze at night is what it gives me.

……

The next morning, Su Sheng came to school with a yawn.

I changed my shoes at the top of the stairs and walked towards the classroom.

As in previous mornings, boys and girls chatted in the hallways and classrooms.

I was going to return to my place as usual. But when I opened the classroom door, I saw Lu Hua standing on his desk.

Probably because he had been waiting for a long time, Lu Hua was very excited when he saw Su Shang.

"Natsume-sama."

A little stunned by Lu Hua's arrival, but after a little silence, Su Sheng walked towards his position.

"Lord Natsume, please accept this gift, it is my offering to you."

When Su Sheng just sat down, I don't know where Lu Hua took out the gift box and placed it on the table.

It was a box wrapped in silk embroidered with violet, and it was beautiful.

"It's a confectionery made for you with ingredients from the village. It's rough, but don't dislike it. ”

"Oh no, thank you so much."

After looking up at the surroundings, he made sure that no one was paying attention to him. Only then did he speak in a whisper.

"Please don't say that, yesterday you helped me, tomorrow is the Four Flowers Festival, may I ask Lord Yuga, can you come?"

"Four Flower Festivals?"

"Yes, because our village is called Yoka Village, although it is a village inhabited only by youkai. But every four years, we go back to the festival where the yokai gather, and there are dancing, drinking, gambling, etc., in short, it is a lively and joyful festival. ”

"Sacrifice?."

Su Shang didn't hesitate, probably because he wanted to go to Luhua's village in the first place.

"Thank you so much, I originally thought you wouldn't go, after all, it's inconvenient for you to be with us like this." Lu Hua immediately said excitedly.

"I don't have to, because I originally wanted to go to your village to have a look, because I was a little curious."

"Yes, then I'll come back to you tomorrow."

Su Sheng nodded slightly.

Then, Lu Hua bowed slightly towards Su Shang, greeted Chunyin again, and left.

Sacrifice? If you tell them about Shui Yu, you will definitely say that you want to be together, and sure enough, I still won't tell them.

Looking out the window, Su Sheng rubbed her hair.

"Uga-sama."

Chunyin's voice reached Su Shang's ears.

"Huh?"

The warm morning breeze filtered through the window, and the ends of her short gray hair began to sway slightly.

"Can I go to the memorial service?"

"Yes, it was meant to be with Chunyin."

"Thank you."

I can't see Haruon's expression because of the white mask, but I'm sure I'm happy now.

"You've been talking to yourself since the beginning."

Nana came to Su Sang's side with something that seemed to be some kind of form in her hand.

"Huh? No, I'm just memorizing lessons. ”

"Ah, excellent students are really annoying, but forget it, you must have secretly practiced it anyway, oh, this is a competition event that will be held next week, and everyone has to sign up for at least one, so Natsume, don't be lazy."

"Sports Day"

Su Shang looked at Nana a little blankly.

"Natsume doesn't know that next week is the sports day?"

"No, it's not so much that I don't know, but that I forgot about it completely."

Although most of the school's sports days are held in the fall, the Sakurai Campus has been holding sports meetings in early June since its establishment.

"Hehe, I really hate the sports meeting."

"I can't say it's annoying, I just think that things like the sports day are not worth sacrificing a precious day off."

"I said, you're already annoying like this, no, it's just a super nasty series."

"Nana, when I'm a ghost, I don't have to put my name on the form, but if that's it, you'll be able to do it as a sports commissioner."

"I'll tell the teacher if you're like that!"

"Sure enough, it's better to warp, after all, it's just a just sports meeting."

"Hey, I'm really going to get you to the office and hand you over to the Nine Ghosts, so that he can teach you a lesson. Really, why are high school students so unmotivated! ”

"Nana, there is no rule in the world that high school students must be motivated." (To be continued.) )
