"Woo, what a great smell, Na Na Kanako, do you smell it~~" The gods sitting in the temple should be extremely dignified waiting for the mortals to worship, but at this time, the two in the Shouya Shrine look like more than the solemn gods next door, and there is no way who makes them too approachable...... Fortunately, those mortals can't see it, otherwise the collapse of faith is a certainty.

"Indeed...... It's very good~~" The smell of roasted sweet potatoes and the aroma of sake wafted from the air, and Kanako, the god in charge of the wind and rain, naturally noticed it one step ahead of Suwako, "The smell came from the back mountain, and it seems that a great guest has come." ”

The person who came was not malicious, this was something that both of them could judge, and the power of the gods in their own divine domain was infinitely amplified, although Ye Yu hid it well, but under the deliberate search of the two, some basic things could still be detected...... Besides, you've ever seen an intruder who would roast sweet potatoes and drink wine in someone else's house.

"I always felt like he was inviting us to a banquet in a veil...... "After a pause, Kanako said to her friend, "but to entertain the gods with roasted sweet potatoes...... It's a weird taste, but if you have good wine, everything can be forgiven. ”

"Banquet~~ It's a banquet, Kanako, let's go!" The aroma of roasted sweet potatoes Suwako has been hungry for a long time, and even Kanako, who has lived with her for thousands of years, probably won't know that the former Tsuya Daimyō would prefer such a simple food, and there is no way for Suwako, this represents her original origin and the memories left behind back then......

"Don't you even watch Kagura Dance? Yes...... Okay, okay, don't pull me...... "Kagura Dance or something can be seen at any time as long as you want to, but I'm afraid that if you miss this time, it's hard to run into it a second time, and now she can't walk around the land at will like she was like back then, and this is the price she had to pay after the failure of trying to unify all the faiths on the land......

However, it is still no problem to walk in your own divine domain, but even so, it is still difficult to find one or two people who can speak, and as a god, except for the existence of the same level or the shrine maiden who completely surrenders her body and mind to the god, the rest is not visible at all...... Or to discern their existence.

That's why...... Loneliness or something has become an emotion that has been with the gods for a long time, compared to those unrestrained monsters. After all, they are carrying too much ...... It was a covenant from ancient times that was convenient for mankind – humans gave faith, and the gods provided protection.

The mountain behind the shrine has always been a favorite place for Suwako, so it was easy to follow the scent from there along the way, but after a while, the two gods came from their own shrine to such a desolate place. But enough secluded place.

By the flickering light of the fire, they had seen the man who had invited them in this way, who was just sitting there with a dead branch in his hand, but who seemed to be one with the starry sky behind him...... This also explains why he and the others did not even find out about his existence before this.

"You are ......" It is not an ordinary person who can have such an atmosphere, in fact, the fact that he can escape the inspection of the two gods and enter their god domain is enough to prove his extraordinary, but before Kanako can say anything to ask about the origin of the other party, he was interrupted by his companion first.

"Leaf ...... Ye Ye?! Suwako's eyes widened, unsure that it was a friend who had been separated from her for thousands of years. Even the words of inquiry stumbled a little, and she was disappointed so many times that she felt timid even when she faced hope again......

"That's me, who else but me remembers that you like to eat this kind of thing...... Eh, don't pounce suddenly, it's really so many years later, why are you still crying so much......" Ye Yu, who walked from behind the fire to the front of the stage, tried to put on the brightest smile in his life to greet his old friend, but he didn't expect Suwako to jump into his arms and cry loudly without even looking at it.

Well, she does have the right to cry, not to mention the hardships of so many years, but what is even more unbearable than this is those days of being alone...... Although they often got together happily back then, in the final analysis, it all relied on Ye Yu's bond. After his disappearance, his former friends went their separate ways, and when Suwako came back to her senses, she was the only one left.

But even so, Suwako continued to try, and based on that small tribe at the beginning, she gradually expanded her faith to the entire kingdom, although she fell short at the final moment and had to hibernate ...... But Suwako, she really worked hard, just because of the insignificant agreement she had with Ye Yu at the beginning.

Lying in Ye Yu's arms, Suwako who was crying looked really distressing, Ye Yu rubbed her hair and then raised her head to look at the woman who was pulled by Suwako, the other party seemed to be still immersed in surprise and did not ease up for a while, until Ye Yu waited for her to look at it for a long time before turning his head and signaling to Ye Yu slightly.

Suwako is actually very coaxing, as long as she just holds her for a while, she won't cry anymore. Thinking about it, after all, even if it seems that there is no change on the outside, but on the inside, he has become a high-ranking god who has been in the world for a long time, and just now it was just a sudden outpouring of emotions.

But even so, after she finally calmed down, she was still reluctant to leave Ye Yu's arms. I was so tired of being by his side, slowly enjoying the drinks he brought to me.

"I'm Ye Yu...... Suwako's friend, but we haven't seen each other for a long time. Leaving aside the Suwako who started eating after crying, Ye Yu turned his gaze to Kanako and introduced her, "Actually, it's a bit of a coincidence that I can find her today, I said Suwako...... Where have you been all these years? I've been looking for you for hundreds of years. ”

Ye Yu didn't lie about this, although he was later found by himself, but he appointed those monsters who were attached to him. It was true that a long time had passed, and when he heard the name of Moriya Shrine today, he even felt like this place had come out of nowhere...... This is clearly not normal.

"Did Ye Ye look for me?" Suwako stuffed a piece of sweet potato into her mouth and tilted her head and asked, "So that means Ye Ye has been back for a long time?" Yes...... That's a shame. ”

I don't doubt what Ye Yu said, Suwako, since he said that he had looked for his traces, then there must be such a thing, Suwako thought for a while, "My recovery is actually a matter of recent years, and I was also asleep before that...... The shift in faith is so annoying......"

Because of the defeat at the beginning, Suwako had to merge her faith with Kanako, and then accept the faith in another capacity, which caused her a lot of damage during this period...... Otherwise, the Moriya Shrine will not be the only one enshrined on the surface.

"I told you at the beginning, don't put your center all on faith, the power that can only be used by relying on external forces is always unreliable......" Ye Yu was a little annoyed by her incompetence, with Suwako's qualifications, it is not difficult to use the priesthood as a springboard to fully comprehend the law, if she succeeds, she will get rid of the shackles of the priesthood like Ye Yu, or at least it will be similar to the previous moonlit night to merge with the laws of this world and become a subordinate of the will of the world.

Suwako pursed his lips and ignored him, Ye Yu sighed slightly and tapped his finger on Suwako's head twice, and then asked the god on the face of the current Shouya Shrine, "Then Your Excellency the Yabandai Myojin, can you explain it to me...... What was the story of the war about Suwako back then, and the fact that her aura has been completely hidden in recent years? (To be continued.) )
