"So what are you going to do? Want to help them? ”

Abandoning those meaningless thoughts, he gently bit his lower lip under the snow and asked such a question.

In all fairness, she still hoped that the person in front of her could help the two gods, after all, the first impression of those two gods was not bad, and they did not leave any bad feelings.

"I want to too, but unfortunately I really don't have this ability......" Xia Ran pulled the corners of his mouth, at this time, he agreed with what the monster girl named Yakumo Purple said before, "Compared to them, my current ability is nothing at all......"

This is a fundamental problem for the gods to maintain their bodies, and there is nothing he can do about it.

By potions? But Xia Ran searched for all the alchemy formulas in his mind, and there were potions to treat injuries, restore mana, and even prolong life and transform bloodlines, but there was no formula that could replenish the power of faith.

And most importantly, after getting out of that mission world, these recipes have a very serious problem-

Raw material supply.

Whether it's the real world or any other world, it's hard to find exactly the same materials, what death knell, dragon bones, dragon scales, snow troll fat...... Stuff like that.

Because even in other worlds, there are dragons and trolls, but there must be differences that cannot be ignored, and they cannot be discussed in one fell swoop. And it's not just the alchemy formula, it's also the same enchantment formula or something.

It's not that it's completely abolished, because with the help of Mephala's magic laboratory, he spent a lot of time understanding the characteristics of various materials, coupled with the detailed explanation of the demon god, he is very clear about the nature of those materials and the reactions and functions they play in the process of alchemy and enchantment.

If we can start from this aspect, there is still hope...... However, the difficulty is very high, just like reconstructing a new recipe or formula according to the idea, even if the alchemy or enchantment skills that are strengthened to the A level will be very suspenseful, and there is no hope.

If you can't do it with potions, what about magic? Can you help?

Unfortunately, this is also not possible, because there is almost no concept of this in the system of that world. Probably due to the difference in worldview, the occult system in The Elder Scrolls does not have too much research into the field of "faith".

The only thing that can only be determined is that the Holy Spirit is the corpse and reflection of God, essentially the reflection of mortal memories of Idra, the embodiment of faith molded. In a sense, the universal nature of the power of faith seems to be the same, that they are all capable of shaping the gods.

However, it is limited to this, because that world has not experienced any end of the Dharma era, and there is no need for the Holy Spirit to compete with each other for faith, and there has never been a complete break of faith by the Holy Spirit......

So no one knows what will happen to the Holy Spirit, the embodiment of Idra, if faith is completely lost...... There is no appearance, there is no demand, and naturally no one studies it.

Therefore, even if he obtained the knowledge inheritance of a complete magic system in a world, Xia Ran was very helpless to find that he couldn't find any solution either, so he insisted on giving a plan-

He can only advise the two gods to make their debut directly and become idols...... Anyway, the problem is that in the current era, people have lost their reverence for the mysteries and have begun to believe in science and intelligence, resulting in the gods not being able to collect faith.

But since the old forms of religious worship no longer work, wouldn't it be better to simply collect faith in another way?

It's a pity that the two gods probably won't agree, the gods may be able to behave less highly, but they are still gods after all, and they have their bottom line.

"I can't understand it too much, but I can hear that they don't want you to help them or give them any useful advice, but they want to use your special features, right?"

Xue Xia frowned slightly, puzzled.

"Of course I know that, but ...... There's no way around it, because in that case, they'll probably die faster. The corners of Xia Ran's mouth twitched a few times, probably remembering the series of obliteration notices he saw when he checked the unread prompt information after he returned that day.

There is no good end to smuggling, although he has no reason to believe, Mephala must have completed the smuggling, but now it is not possible to determine what method the demon god used to break into pieces, what price he paid, and what kind of state he is in now......

In short, the space is very cruel to the consciousness of foreign smuggling without permission, and if you say that you will erase it, you will erase it, and the treatment that the lost people can't enjoy is completely used in this regard.

Although Xia Ran knew what the two gods wanted to seek in his body, he really couldn't agree, because the only result was undoubted...... That's not a possibility, it's an absolute dead end.

It's just that the truth is such a truth, how should you reject it?

That's what he's a little bit worried about.

"Actually, classmate Xia Ran, if you really have no choice, you don't have to force yourself......" The blue and white witch on the opposite side probably saw the teenager's entanglement and guessed the other party's thoughts, so she said with a smile, "Suwako-sama, they won't be angry with you because of this kind of thing." ”

"I believe this...... Xia Ran nodded a little perfunctorily, and then looked at the Fengzhu girl in front of him curiously, "But Sanae-san, if you don't have a way, you have to move into that fantasy town, don't you have a little rejection?" ”

"This ...... There are a few. Sanae thought for a moment, then nodded honestly, "But there is no way to do it, Suwako-sama can't continue like this, and I actually want to go to that place too." ”

"Why?" It was under the snow that asked the question.

The girl was slightly puzzled, although her initial impression of monsters and gods was not bad, but the instinctive fear of inhuman still existed, after all, the concept of "inhuman" was equivalent to the existence of "monsters" in a sense.

So she wasn't too able to understand what was so interesting about leaving the human world and entering a paradise full of non-human aliens.

"Because I think, or maybe I've been in that place since the beginning." Sanae Kazuya replied very naturally, "Maybe only in that place where there are youkai, can my skills as a shrine maiden have room to play......"

After all, she is a shrine maiden, a living god.

But trapped in a stagnant human world all day long, even if she has a skill, there is no room for play, and she either goes to class on weekdays, or does some housework in the shrine, and is responsible for the feeding of the two gods......

Over time, I will probably really start to doubt the value of my life, and now for this Miss Fengzhu, the matter of moving into Gensokyo at Shouya Shrine will make her a little resistant and reluctant, but it is not that there is no expectation and hope at all.

"Is that so......"

Xia Ran nodded thoughtfully, and then said solemnly: "Let's put it this way, Sanae-sana, I'm not completely sure yet, so I can't give you an accurate answer......

"In other words, classmate Xia Ran, you actually have a way, right?" Dongfeng Valley Sanae was stunned for a moment, and then asked in surprise.

Sure enough, what she belonged there and wanted to see it were all excuses used to convince her of herself! If there is a way, this little girl does not want to leave her familiar environment, and it is very likely that she will never come back.

Xia Ran looked at the surprised expression of the Fengzhu girl, and still shook his head: "I can only say that there is such a possibility......"

There are no rules that are absolutely free of loopholes, especially when the lost come from countless different world lines, and the power systems and evolutionary routes they choose are also strange and different, and it is difficult to set an absolute standard.

It's not that all external consciousnesses are absolutely not allowed to enter the white space except for the lost, for example, if someone has enhanced psychic abilities? His power is mainly embodied in various aspects of holding spirits and guarding spirits?

When he was looking through the redemption list before, he had seen this type of option appear on it, proving that this possibility did exist.

In that case, the space should have recognized this practice, which is equivalent to granting permission to land on those spirits-

It's just that Xia Ran still needs to do further verification before he can say it until he really confirms that it is feasible and safe. And most importantly, he didn't think the two gods would agree to such an offer......

I feel that they are very likely to choose to become idols rather than let Xia Ran become a psychic king directly.

"That's pretty good, let's go talk to Suwako-sama now!" The Blue and White Witch stood up happily, "They should be preparing to give you protection, and it's probably about the same now......"

“……”

“……”

The corners of Xia Ran's mouth suddenly crooked, and he suddenly felt that the benefits of this kind of delivery to the door were a little hot, is this considered an advance deposit?

But there's really no way to guarantee it, and even if it's confirmed, you won't be able to accept that method......

……

……

The time to be a guest at Moriya Shrine is over.

Although until the end, nothing bad happened, on the contrary, the two gods, whether they were bold and generous, or cold personalities, released their kindness without exception-

They gave protection to both Xia Ran and Xuexia, which was one of the manifestations of the power of the gods.

It's hard to explain the specific effect, it's broad and vague, but it's undoubtedly a relatively powerful resident effect, and it's a great gift...... Especially in the current state of the two gods, Xia Ran felt the weight of this gift even more.

Then, he was even more worried about what kind of consequences would happen if he couldn't come up with a feasible way in the future, although he intuitively didn't think that those two people were the type to turn their faces because of this kind of thing, but it was better to be cautious......

Well, if you have a reincarnation in ten days, as long as there are no accidents, you can grow a lot, and these two gods won't be able to survive now, so you will delay it for ten or eight years?

At that time, if it is conservatively estimated, Xia Ran should have the ability to protect himself no matter what he says, right? Or, to put it mildly, a chance to solve the problems encountered by the two of them?

Just when Xia Ran was thinking about using the almighty delaying tactic, she looked back with some confusion under the snow in front of her, waved her arm, and then exhaled softly: "I seem to be ...... Didn't feel anything special about it? ”

"Well, the protection of the gods is a kind of protection, and it doesn't directly increase your strength or anything...... It doesn't feel normal. Xia Ran retracted his divergent thoughts and explained seriously, "For example, if your luck improves, will you directly have obvious feelings?" ”

"Is that so?" A calm bow under the snow.

“……”

“……”

A strange silence ensued, and after leaving the Moriya Shrine, the two suddenly seemed to have nothing to say.

And at this time, the sun was already setting in the west, and before I knew it, the day that had taken many twists and turns seemed to be about to pass, and the book club that was scheduled at the beginning was not completed.

"Let's go back."

After a long time, the girl whispered, and Xia Ran nodded wordlessly.

Then, on the way home, the two never talked again. The girl didn't ask Xia Ran anything, and Xia Ran didn't take the initiative to say anything. Although, both of them should actually have something to say.

However, the two of them were just like passengers seated next to each other on the train, and they spent a blank time like this.
