Chapter 8: I Don't Have the Consciousness to Be a Leader
Tono's scenery is quite good, located in the northeast, with a cloudy climate, humid air and lush forests. It should be said that the sunny weather like when Su Mo first came here before should be said to be quite rare.
There are mountains of high or low almost everywhere here, and every morning when you stand in a place with a wide view and look around, each mountain is surrounded by white clouds and steam, like a fairyland.
- Despite all that, this is not really a good place for humans to live. And the reason is also quite simple, demonic.
Because Tono, especially in the mountains and forests where the members are concentrated, it is difficult to see bright sunlight all year round, so the air under the fog is full of demonic energy.
For youkai, this is a paradise, but if you are a human, you will only be eroded by the body for a long time, and eventually you will die of a serious illness.
"Well, they're so slow."
Sitting on the stone steps, Su Mo put down the illustrated book about the monster breed in the far field that he was reading in his hand, and the dark pupils reflected a rather obvious emptiness.
"If they come, they'll probably have a good show, right?"
He really thought so, after all, according to the character of the guy who slipped the scoop, it would definitely be quite abnormal if he didn't make a fuss when he got to Tono.
"I've been hearing you talk about slippery scoops or something, who is he?"
And for some reason, even if he had already taken Su Mo on a tour of Tono, Xueli would always find the right time to appear by his side.
And every time she looked at Su Mo's eyes, it made him feel quite bad
"Slippery scoop, a monster who likes to eat overlord meals very much, well, it's understandable that he likes to eat overlord meals because he is slippery."
Nodding his head in a matter-of-fact manner:
"That guy might become the true Lord of the Spirits in the future."
"Huh? Isn't it you? β
Hear the words. Xue Li looked at Su Mo with some surprise:
"You're that strong."
Although it had been a few days since he had been in Tono, and Su Mo had not participated in any of the fairly normal fights in Tono, anyone could tell how strong his strength was from the surging power he had before to the magic that had shocked almost all the Tono monsters that stood in his way in an instant.
- What's more, no one thinks it's his full play.
But in the face of Shirley's doubts. Su Mo chuckled and said:
"It takes more than just power to be a leader."
A gust of wind blew, and the dense leaves rustled.
"What's more, when did you get the illusion that I would run to recruit youkai to form a force? That kind of thing is so troublesome, all I want is to be free and do what I want. β
Becoming a successful leader requires considerable charisma, organizational skills, and the courage and awareness to carry all of his subordinates.
That kind of thing was really quite troublesome for Su Mo. At most, he will take risks around with slippery scoops and the like, and it is really not his style to form a force or something by himself.
"For you, there is no freedom to form a hundred ghost night walkers?"
After being silent for a while, Shirley raised her head and asked, with inexplicable emotion in her eyes.
"It's not that there isn't freedomβ"
Su Mo rubbed Aster's little head beside him, and his tone was a little ethereal:
"It's just that I don't have the kind of consciousness that can carry everything, so if I have a group of followers or something, I guess I'll suffocate myself to death haha!"
As he spoke, he touched the back of his head and laughed.
"Then you're going to go down alone in the future?"
Shirley looked earnestly at the green leaves in front of her that fell to the ground and trembled gently in the wind, and a few ants bit the edge of the leaf hard.
"Of course not aloneβI just don't build a force, and when I travel, I do travel with my friends. Just like after that, I'm going to follow the slippery scoop, and it should be quite interesting to witness the birth of a new generation of Ghost Lords. β
As he himself said, Su Mo has never had any ideas such as fighting for hegemony or dividing spheres of influence.
Although for most people, only those who are ambitious can be regarded as big men, but for Su Mo, it is too tiring to think about those things all day. From the moment he woke up in Gensokyo, he has always pursued a casual life - traveling between worlds is his practice.
Although there are a few bad world consciousness in the middle, it can be considered a good adventure, isn't it?
It was with this idea that he just wandered around and came here.
Otherwise, whether it is in the world of giants, the world of black loli, or the world of elves, he can rely on his strong personal force to pull up a force.
Well. Let's ignore the Moon World, the water there is too deep, and it is estimated that even if we pull in Aoko, who is a magician, and the True Ancestor Princess Elquite, they may not be able to please them.
Therefore, Su Mo is not suitable for competing for dominance in the world. He's just a tourist with idle clouds and wild cranes.
- Well, no matter how you look at it, it's a high level of force!
"Don't want to be a leader yourself, but like to go forward with your friends? Su Mo, you are really an interesting person. β
Shirley raised her hand, and the lightly patterned sleeve gently covered her mouth.
"Interesting? I've always thought I was a very boring person. β
Hearing such an evaluation from the Snow Girl next to her. Su Mo was slightly stunned and shook his head slightly.
"Nope. Ink is really interesting. β
At this time, the silver-haired sword elf Xiao Lori raised her little head and looked at Su Mo with a pure face:
"I heard Sister Qingzi say that people like Mo are called unconscious teases?"
I didn't know what kind of earth-shattering words I had uttered. Esther seemed to be simply repeating what she had heard from some of the girls.
ββ
Su Mo remained silent.
"What's that, what's the comic?"
After all, she was a youkai who lived hundreds of years before modern times, and Snow Maiden didn't understand these words that became popular for a long, long time.
ββ
Aoko, you wait, next time I'll let you see what is called a Zhenfu Gang and what is called the anger of your boyfriend
I made a silent decision in my heart - well, it's just thinking in my heart, and you just listen.
But perhaps in order to break the somewhat awkward atmosphere at this time, an old but neutral voice next to him suddenly came:
"Mr. Su Mo!"
That's Tono's, so to speak, one of the leaders, a lean kappa with black hair and a black beard:
"Huh? What's the matter? β
"Akakoto-sama, please." (To be continued.) )
PS: I can't see the reward record for Mao in the background consultation, and I was replied with a sentence "Please consult the editor directly", well, it's a good way, but who is my editor in charge (Wangtian)
