Chapter 26: The Son of God
"So, here you are."
Yasaka Kanako is in the temple, sitting on the throne that originally belonged to Suwako.
At this moment, Yakumo Hatsu stood below her with one hand around Suwako.
Looks impressive, doesn't it? Yakumo's eyes skimmed slightly, and he glanced at the pillars in the temple, remembering that a certain god was tied to it before?
Following Yakumo's eyes, Kanako coughed lightly twice.
"So, you're here to take back the country?"
Yasaka Kanako smiled, it was with a hint of helplessness, even though Suwako had already weakened her faith and had no one in her divine power.
However, after the rain just now, most of the faith in Suwa no Kuni has returned to her hands.
After experiencing the previous disaster, at this moment, it is impossible for Kanako to get the slightest power of faith in this country.
Under the advantages of the other, with the addition of Yakumo Hao, who can be regarded as the main combat power, her chances of winning can be described as very few.
"Shouldn't I find a shrine maiden too?"
Looking at Suwako, who was quietly glued to Yakumo's side, her face was full of emotions called happiness.
Inexplicably, this never-before-seen thought popped up in Kanako Yasaka's mind, and it has been lingering.
Although there are many gods in Yamato, Yasaka Kanako can't think of a person who can be trusted like Suwako to Yakumo, or a god.
"Okay!"
Kanako Yasaka stepped down from the throne, and although she felt like she had been driven away, she was inexplicably relieved when she stepped down from the throne of the temple, which symbolized the supreme power.
As a deity, it was her duty to provide protection for her people, but in the case of Suwa no Kuni, she had no role as a deity other than to bring disaster.
"No, I don't have to."
Unexpectedly, Suwako rejected her offer without a hint of hesitation.
"Huh?"
A look of surprise appeared on Kanako Yasaka's face, which was still with some complicated emotions.
"What did you say?"
Although as a god, it is impossible to mishear this kind of situation that only occurs in mortals, Kanako still subconsciously asked back.
With such a large country of Suwa and a huge power of faith and territory, if this foundation is lost, Suwako may even return to the situation before: the divine power is greatly weakened, and even the more powerful youkai may not be able to defeat it.
"That's right."
Suwako took Yakumo's hand with a sweet smile on her face.
"Since I've given up on the country of Suwa, I don't plan to come back, this time, I just want to do one last thing for the people of the country of Suwa."
The country of Suwa without Suwako could not exist at all, and everything that has happened in the past few days has shown the correctness of this matter.
"How do you want to solve it?"
Only Kun's divine power can manipulate the existence of indigenous gods such as Misaguchi who were born in the land of Suwa no Kuni.
If this matter was well resolved, Kanako would not have faced such a grim situation, and even as one of the most powerful gods, she would not have the slightest choice.
"How are you going to solve it?"
Kanako Yasaka looked at Suwako curiously, she couldn't think of any way to make Suwa's country no longer face disasters such as drought except for Suwako to stay by herself.
"By the way, it seems that it is probably okay to leave the guy next to you behind."
Yasaka Kanako said maliciously.
As a shrine maiden of Suwako, Yakumo Ha can actually wield some of Kun's power.
It's just that this power doesn't belong to him, but to Suwako, and he just borrowed it.
"An aunt wants to be tied to a pillar again?"
A dangerous smile appeared at the corner of Yakumo's mouth, reasonable, although he has always been the most extreme character of salted fish, however, it is also true that Suwako was almost hurt by Kanako.
If it weren't for Suwako's own intend to pursue it, Yakumo didn't care about making an exception and repairing the aunt-level god in front of him.
Although it is not yet known who repaired whom.
"Xiaoyun wants to leave with me."
Suwako shook her head, the purpose of her departure from Suwa no Kuni was to get rid of the responsibilities imposed on her by this land, so that she could take a good look at the outside world with her own shrine maiden.
If Yakumo had to stay here, then what's the point of her leaving alone?
"Find a mortal with some spiritual powers, and give this to her."
Suwako cut a scar from her hand, and blood with a slight golden glow flowed slowly through it.
"What is this?"
Kanako's eyes are complicated, the blood of the gods, the most essence of blood flowing from the body of the gods, she can even feel the full power of faith contained in it.
"You used most of the faith you just collected to make this blood, right?"
Since ancient times, there has been a legend that the warrior who slaughtered the dragon was reborn after bathing in the dragon's blood, and the blood of the gods is naturally not so ordinary.
Of course, there are gods who can reproduce in the ordinary way of human beings, but most of the descendants of the gods can be said to have been created on their own.
And what Suwako is doing now can be said to be creating her own "offspring".
As long as this drop of blood is fused, even if it is just an ordinary person, it will be reborn in an instant and have the potential to become a living god!
It's just that the descendants are not so easy to create, at the very least, the power of the gods will be greatly regressed, and the somewhat pale face of Suwako in front of him also shows this.
"The human who has fused this drop of blood, not to mention anything else, can at least carry my power and become my shrine maiden, and some of the kun power she can use is enough to maintain the needs of Suwa no Kun."
Kanako snorted softly, she didn't expect Suwako to be able to do this, is this the power of human feelings?
"In that case, you need to rest too."
Yasaka Kanako took the blood of the gods from Suwako's hand with a somewhat sly smile on her face.
"Hey, lend me your gods."
Took the somewhat weak Suwako from the arms of the unkind-faced Yakumo, who wanted to stop him, but was rejected by Suwako.
Pulling Suwako out of the temple, the gloomy sky was still dripping with heavy rain, and people cheered in the rain.
"See?"
Holding Suwako, Kanako Yasaka smiled a little helplessly.
"In this country, it is always you who believes."
Even so, Kanako announced in a voice with an expanded divine power.
"Look, the Leak Arrow has fallen into my hands, all this is the result of my divine power, from today onwards, the Leak Arrow will work with me to govern this country!"
"Lord Leaky!"
Cries of joy came and went, and there was no better news for them ordinary people.
"This."
Suwako touched the iron wheel on her body, and under the faith of everyone, the rusty mark was slowly disappearing.
"Humph! You're going to stay here for two days. ”
Kanako turned to look at Yakumo, who was standing behind her and was silently watching, and smiled.
"Until I find the right witch to choose."
