While practicing diligently [no desire to cross the body], the finishing work of the promotion of the live fish inn, Kamiyagawa did not fall behind.

Live Fish Lodge.

Room 912.

After the little old man helped sense the strange atmosphere inside, Kamiyagawa pushed the door alone and entered.

On the wall of the room, there is the handwriting left by a black pen: [Away from pocket]

This kind of suggestive words should also be left by the few people who kept playing cat and mouse games with Chiyu Miyauchi in the hotel.

Kamiya didn't pay much attention to the prompt, sensed the breath in the room, and then looked up at the ceiling.

You can see that by the chandelier in the center, there is a fleshy white flower bag, which is slowly hanging down silently.

Buzz –

The phone vibrates.

[The Atlas has been updated.] ]

[strange talk name: hanging bag]

[Classification: F]

[Status: Strange Tales World]

[Visit Progress: 13%]

Hanging bag, a kind of folk yokai that exists in the mouth of the older generation of Japan.

It is said that it is a pocket hanging from a high place, and if a person encounters it is curious and stretches his neck to check it, the hanging bag will quickly wrap around and hang the person to death.

It belongs to the insidious bad species.

"Here's a chance."

Thinking so in his heart, Kamiyagawa stood under the white flower pouch and stretched his neck slightly.

Wow –

The bag sensed it, and flicked the rope towards Kamiya's neck.

However, before the rope could wrap around Kamiya, a huge and fiery black shadow pounced out of the room.

Inugami appears.

Cooperate with the owner's fishing law enforcement, tear and crush the hanging bag, and eat it all.

The texture of this meat bag is indeed meat, but it is not very tasty.

"In the hotel, there are still few strange talks with strong eyesight." Kamiya shrugged disappreciatively.

After processing the hanging bag, he harvested more than 50 soul crystals, as well as an F-level strange talk of blood.

Room 912 is the last unexplored room in the map of the Live Fish Hotel.

After taking a turn around the hotel, the inn finally reached 100% explorability.

Counting the hanging bags that have just been retired, there are a total of 27 types of strange talks in the statistics of [Strange Talks].

The reward is an additional 800 soul crystals on the basis of the previous one.

Mosquito meat is also meat.

Kamiya clicked to complete the task.

The final mission reward for [Strange Tales of a Hundred Things] appeared in his hand.

Soul crystals, Shishen iron statues, there is nothing to say.

The only special thing is the so-called [Oni Martial Pill's Talisman].

This is a small token, which seems to be made of copper, half the size of a palm, and it is heavy and weighty.

It has the words "General Zhengyi" written on it.

[Onitakemaru's Talisman (Special Item Unrated): The first general of the Kamakura Shogunate, the first general of the Kamakura Shogunate, and the founder of the Japanese shogunate system, held by Minamoto Yoritomo, a symbol of status. ]

"Minamoto Yorito's talisman."

Kamiya looked at the item information on his phone, and was not surprised by the appearance of the words "Minamoto Yorito".

He had searched for the word "Onitakemaru" on the Internet before, and the content he found out was about the Kamakura shogun.

Minamoto Yoritomo's title is Oni Warrior Maru, also known as Oni Warrior.

"I thought it would be a very powerful thing, but it turned out to be useless? A symbol of the status of the shogun, what do I want this thing for? ”

The rule of the shogunate was indeed very powerful in the history of Japan.

The power of the general of Zhengyi was once above that of the emperors of previous dynasties, and he coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes.

It's a traditional Japanese performer.

"But the rule of the shogunate ended as early as the Meiji Restoration. Is there really any use for such symbols? Kamiyagawa took the talisman in his hand and frowned and weighed it for a while, and finally put it into the [Mirage Cloth Bag].

Let's keep it for now.

Put it in the warehouse and eat ashes, in case you can use it one day.

"As the first shogun, Minamoto Yoritomo can be regarded as a human hero, right? Maybe you can get his ashes or something through this talisman. ”

After receiving the reward for the retreat task, there is a text prompt popping up in "Strange Tales of Strange Things"-

[All the tasks in the area of the Living Fish Hotel have been completed, the mythic map has been opened, and the [Kamyi Divine Coffin] has been obtained!] ]

"Huh?"

After the map was pushed this time, the text displayed was different.

And also gave an extra item, a brand new god wood card.

Kamiyagawa took the new shrine and observed it for a long time, and finally came to the conclusion: "This thing seems to be a bit similar to my [Takamagahara Shrine]?" ”

What's the next new map, what is the mythical map?

After thinking about it for a while, Kamiyagawa roughly figured it out.

In the past, when maps were opened, they were opened in the corresponding world of the real world.

As long as you go to a specific place in reality, you can activate the gods of the inner world through "Strange Tales of Things".

But the map to go to this time may not have a corresponding location in the real world?

It's the same as Takamagahara.

That's why it will be given to independent gods.

"So, through this new shrine, I might go to a mythical location similar to Takamagahara? But where is Kamyi? ”

……

Kamiyagawa took this time to get the items in the world and returned to reality.

He didn't rush to use the [Kamui Divine Coffin], but carefully checked the information for an hour first.

Through his chaso, the so-called "Kamyi" points to Ainu mythology.

Kamiyagawa found a few words about the creation of this mythological system-

"At a time when nothing existed in this world, the gods gathered and discussed the creation of a harmonious earth for people. Eventually, the male god known as Mauhili Kara Kamui (earth, creation, god) and the goddess known as Ika Kara Kamui (flower, creation, god) came to create the earth. ”

"Mauhili Kara Kamui created mountains, fields, and rivers, Ikala Kamui created trees and beautiful flowers, and they used clay to create animals such as bears and rabbits. In the end, the two gods created men and women who were similar to each other. ”

The land of harmony built by the two gods is called "Ainu Maethili", and this land is also called "Kamyi".

In the Ainu language, the word "Kamyi" means "god".

The new map can be interpreted as "the land of God's creation".

The next place Kamiyagawa is going to be, it should be here.

"So, Kamui is the place of origin in Ainu mythology."

"The Ainu mythology system is different from the Shinto mythology in Japan, right? Beliefs that belong to both systems. ”

The Ainu people, who believe in Ainu mythology, are an indigenous group in northern Japan, and the remnants are concentrated in northern Hokkaido. As a result of assimilation into the Yamato people, the pure Ainu blood has largely disappeared.

And Japan has always claimed to be a mono-ethnic country.

After the enactment of the Hokkaido Former Native People Protection Act in 1899, the Ainu were forced to learn Japanese, adopted Japanese names, and were ordered to cease their religious practices and become a tribe of the Buraku.

After World War II, the Japanese government continued to use the term "inhabitants of ancient times" and did not recognize the existence of such a nation.

It was not until the beginning of the twenty-first century that the Japanese Diet recognized the Ainu people for the first time.

After a long period of assimilation, the original Ainu culture was greatly fragmented, and the original Ainu mythological system was also fragmented, and there are few documents to study.

From this point of view, the Ainu gods were greatly erased by Shintoism in the form of cultural and religious invasion, resulting in the loss and oblivion of the old aboriginal gods, and now they have become a broken and declining local religion in Japan.

"In this way, Kamyi, the land of roots, is afraid that it will be very miserable...... However, the Shinto side is not much better, and even Takamagahara, is broken. ”

After that, Kamiyagawa checked and studied the Ainu materials that existed on the Internet, and even took notes carefully.

It's kind of a background preview of the map you're going to go to next.

……

Early the next morning.

The first rays of the morning shine through the thick glass doors of the living room.

Kamiyagawa sat up from the edge of the table in a daze, raised his hand and wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth.

Last night, I seemed to be sitting in the living room to check the information for too long, and I checked until the second half of the night, and I fell asleep unconsciously.

It's early spring, and it's still a bit cold at night.

But when Kamiya woke up, his body was warm.

He glanced at the table in front of him, and among the laptops that had not been turned off and the various books piled up, Rihefang was sitting on his knees, timidly raising his eyes to look at himself.

Little Thumbelina's body is exuding a warm and comfortable current.

"Kamiya-sama, please take care of your body. If you fall asleep here, you'll catch a cold. ”

Rihefang said this when he saw Kamiya wake up, his voice crisp.

Kamiyagawa stretched: "I'm sorry to worry you." Have you been here since I fell asleep last night? ”

"Well, I came when you fell asleep, but Lord Pranya called me." Hiwabo nodded, sat down on the table, and said in a debriefing manner, "Lord Pranya was here with you last night, and Lord Mary and Lord Zashiki also came. ”

"That's right."

Kamiyagawa noticed that a plain teacup was sitting in the corner of the table beside him.

He hadn't had any tea last night.

And there is only one person who likes to drink tea at home.

In addition, the notebook he had in hand to extract the main points of the Ainu mythology he had looked up had another page behind the last line of notes he had written last night.

Looking through it, there are five more pages related to Ainu mythology.

The handwriting of the new note is beautiful and beautiful, and Kamiya recognizes the word.

It is the word for Prajna.

It seems that after falling asleep last night, Pranyo silently took over his work.

"I'll thank you so much, and thank you for heating me, little sun." Kamiya raised his hand and gently poked Hiwabo's cheek with his fingertips.

Although this thumbelina is small, her face is soft, warm, and feels very good.

Rihefang leaned on the table, but he didn't forget to seriously respond to the gratitude of the head of the family:

"Hmm...... Hmm...... It's all, it's all what we should do. ”

After teasing the little sun for a while, Kamiya smelled the warm aroma of food wafting from the direction of the kitchen.

"Pranya probably went to the kitchen to make breakfast."

He got up from the edge of the table, walked over to the glass sliding door, pushed it open, and breathed in the fresh air of the courtyard.

In the small courtyard of the house, a small and small red maple tree was recently planted.

Japanese red maple, also known as Japanese red ribbon, is the red maple variety that has remained red for the longest time, and its leaves are red in spring, summer, and autumn, and it is very showy.

Among them, the red color of spring is the most delicate.

Kamiyagawa glanced at the newly planted red maples, the morning dew refracting the shimmer of the morning light on the autumn leaves, shrouding in a golden halo.

"It's a nice day."

He felt in a good mood.

……

After washing, I had breakfast.

Kamiya went through the Ainu myths that he had collected and summarized yesterday, especially the part that Prajna had excerpted in detail.

Then he plans to set off for the newly opened mythical map.

The Kamui Shrine was placed on the floor, reaching out and touching it.

Yellow-green dots of light spread out around the wooden plaque like fireflies on a summer night.

Buzzing.

The phone vibrates.

[Special Area unlocked, Lost Kamyi.] ]

[Do you want to transmit?] ]

The process is indeed similar to entering Takamagahara.

Kamiyagawa clicked [Yes].

In the line of sight, the gray color blocks are condensed and patchworked, the colors are getting thicker and thicker, and the world is being reorganized.

When everything was stable, his surroundings were no longer the living room of his home, but a white wilderness that could not be seen as far as the eye could see.

The ground is covered with snow and the sky is dark.

Kamiyagawa looked around and saw the familiar shrine standing beside him, with fluorescent hibernation on it, and several other statues of the gods, as well as Mary's shrine, were also present on the side of the shrine in turn.

"It's good that the gods are here."

Seeing this stuff makes people feel at ease.

The layout of the statues and shrines is exactly the same as other normal maps in the Sato world.

In other words, in this mythical map, the gods and the paper substitutes can still play a role.

Kamiyagawa is still immortal.

[Map unlocked, Lost Kamyi.] ]

[Area Mission: Contact Ainu Kamui.] ]

Kamiya looked at the task prompt on his phone: "There is no exploration, and there is no retreat, and even the regional missions in the mythical map are different from ordinary maps." ”

Because he did his homework seriously last night, he understood the concept of "Ainu Kamui".

In the Ainu mythological system, the gods are collectively referred to as "kamyi", while "kamui" refers specifically to the higher beings among the gods.

Ainu is also a pantheistic belief that there are gods in everything.

But there are not many gods who can be called Kamui.

Coupled with the fact that this mythological system is lost and fragmented, I don't know how many gods can exist in this root land.

"Little old man?"

Kamiyagawa took out the bronze match and tried to call the scout.

"Aba!"

A purple ghostly aura swirled around, and a little old man dressed as a void monk appeared beside him.

"It seems that the rules of Kamui and Takamagahara-ri are not the same."

Kamiya was still very happy to see his scout appear.

You know, in another mythical map, that is, his current base camp, Takamagahara, only certain individuals can show up and move.

For example, he, the co-master reserve of ghosts and gods, and the Shikigami who are closely related to him.

In addition, there is a strange talk with a [Takamagahara Communication Certificate], and there are also recognized little gods such as Medicine Seller and Suzuhiko Hime.

Like the little old man and the Zashiki boy, although they are attached to the spirit descent to follow the Kamiya River, they are unable to appear in Takamagahara.

But on Kamyi's side, there are no such complicated security rules for people entering and exiting.

It's pretty much the same as a normal map.

"The rules here are similar to those of a normal map, so you should be able to build Ruyue Station as well, right?"

Kamiyagawa tentatively figured out the key to the Kirizuki train.
