Chapter 14: A New World

"Hiss, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts...... Genos, tap it! ”

Wood, who was enjoying Genos' massage on the couch, exclaimed with a bitter face, two days had passed since the Battle of the Deep Sea King, and the aftermath of the Overworld switching to the body of a giant was completely beyond Wood's imagination.

After that battle, Wood was in a coma for two days, though all of his injuries had healed thanks to his vampire self-healing abilities that had been mixed with Kabane's and protozoan genes.

But the feeling of weakness in the soul became clearer and clearer, and even gave Wood the feeling that his soul would be burst at any moment, and the strength of the two bodies had reached the limit of what the soul could bear.

"Does it hurt?"

Genos looked at the two arms a little strangely, then directly unloaded one and brought it to his eyes to look at it carefully, and whispered to himself: "Dr. Kusno said that these two arms are specially created for massaging the teacher, isn't the strength limited enough?" ”

“……”

The corners of Wood's mouth twitched, what the hell is the arm built for massage? How idle is that old man named Kusno, all day long......

But he seems to be very idle, at least the busy people will not give the combat-type Genos a special housework type arm!

"By the way, Brother Wood, are you leaving again?"

"How long are you going to be out this time?"

Saitama, who was watching TV on the side, took the time to look back and ask.

"A week." Wood smiled wryly and nodded, if possible, he really didn't want to cross, but not crossing would mean losing his life.

Although he couldn't see it, the weakness of his soul continued, and he couldn't wait any longer, at least the waste system of daily dives couldn't help him solve his problems.

To paraphrase the most common phrase of the system......

Let's be self-reliant!!

And Wood also wanted to take refuge in other worlds, and when he came back, he suddenly found that the world of One Punch seemed to be more and more dangerous, and it was a meteorite and a monster of the deep sea.

And then the two of them, one is careless Genos every day, and the other is late to Saitama every day, and if something really happens, Wood feels that unless he follows closely behind Saitama Sensei, it will be very dangerous!

But......

Wood frowned slightly, remembering the situation when he opened the crossing this morning......

[The traversal system is activated, the target world: Norajin, the host will be sent to this world in 24 hours, please prepare the host!] 】

Noragami?

Whether the world can help his soul, Wood is not sure, but it is definitely related to the soul.

Norajin's worldview is unlike any world Wood has ever been to -

If we talk about ordinary, that world is more ordinary than any world Wood goes to.

But if it's complicated, it's also more complex than any other world.

Because it's a world of gods, undead, and demons. For ordinary people who are ignorant, it is naturally just an ordinary world, but the more you dig deeper, the more you can understand the complexity behind this world.

There was no doubt that since there were undead and yellow springs, that world must be able to connect with souls, but Wood was not sure if there was a way to strengthen his own soul.

However, Wood still has great hopes for this world, because there are eight million gods in that world, and maybe any god will have a way to heal his soul.

Of course, the eight million is just talking, and the approximate meaning is to indicate that there are endless gods, that is, they can be born at any time.

Because the gods of that world are really cheap......

Breasts too small?

It's okay, let's worship God, there is a god in charge of breast enlargement.

What, men's baby small?

I tell you that it's okay, let's continue to worship God, get a masculine thing as a god, and soon a god in charge of men's treasures will be born.

Hair loss? Bald? Split ends in your hair?

The shrine of the god of Omahata welcomes you, specializing in the treatment of hair loss, baldness, and split ends on the top of the head; A thousand-year-old store, the reputation is absolutely leveraged!!

God said, Let there be light!

No problem, Edison Dad, we'll build you a shrine, a power company...... It doesn't bless anything, though.

In short, there were many gods in that world that were born through people's prayers, and it can be said that there were 'shrines' everywhere, but why don't you call them shrines?

It is because the shrine also needs to be recognized by Takamagahara, and it is roughly divided into three levels: Taisha, Shinto, and Commune.

The small gods offered in the 'shrines' that are everywhere are basically false gods and non-righteous gods that are not recognized by the divine realm, that is, Takamagahara, and can even be called special lonely souls and wild ghosts.

And there are not many who can reach the Taisha level, Izumo Taisha, Suwa Taisha, Fushimi Inari Taisha and so on.

Further down are the Tenman Shrine, the Seven Fortunes Shrine, and so on; As the name suggests, the shrine is a place where the gods live, so when you go to the shrine, it is all regular gods.

As for the following society, it's more complicated.,Although some of them are righteous gods recognized by Takamagahara.,There are also pseudo-gods who aren't recognized.,It can be said that it's a mixture of fish and dragons.,There are good and bad.。

There are the most widespread land gods, mountain gods, ghosts and ghosts that many people are familiar with, the spirits of the deceased, the spirits of animals and plants such as mountains, trees, foxes, etc., which are worth worshipping, as well as some horrific evil gods, such as the god of calamity who helps humans kill people, and so on.

But there is one thing in common, that is, once they are forgotten by the world and have no faith, these false gods will gradually disappear without the power of will, and they will disappear completely.

Therefore, in order to maintain their own existence, these pseudo-'gods' can be said to do everything they can to be cattle and horses, in short, they are basically a group of gods who are more bitter than office workers...... It's not as good as the inappropriate kind......

As for Amaterasu, who is in charge of Takamagahara, that's another system, and his shrine is not called a shrine, but a shrine.

This is just to say that those righteous gods, Huangquan Hirazaka also has its own system.

In short, it is a world where gods are not as good as dogs, and one day I see a young man in sportswear, helping people to clean the toilet, he may be a god, who accepts the five-yuan offering to come to clean the toilet......

For such a world, Wood didn't know what to prepare.

The only people in that world who might pose a threat to him were probably those gods and demons, and Wood was ready to ask those gods to heal his soul, so naturally he would not offend them.

But those demons are not so easy to deal with.

- Demon!

This is a monster on the other side generated by people's negative emotions, inhabiting deeper dead ends, which cannot be directly seen or touched by people, but will aggravate the negative emotions of human beings, and in severe cases, it will also invite death.

At the same time, it will also treat the inhabitants of the cracks as fragrant food and devour them, can be killed by gods and artifacts, and is afraid of the pure water in the shrine.

Although these demons usually appear, they gather in large numbers every time they are incarnated, and even adults affected by the incarnation can see the inhabitants and demons living in the cracks of the dead end.

If there is no god to clean up and destroy it in time, then this place will affect the human world, and a series of unpredictable disasters will occur around the people in the area.

Wood said that he was about to go to such a world, and he was very uneasy.

It would be nice if you could bring money, at least it would be much easier to worship the shrine to avoid demons or ask the gods for help; And Wood is afraid that if he is a vampire in a world where gods are not as good as dogs, he will be treated as a demon by some gods......
