Chapter Twenty-Nine: Hades, Hell
"God?"
Hearing Kanako's question, Shiki Yingji had a smile on the corner of her mouth, and looked at the god in front of her for a while, before she replied without losing her manners:
"I'm from hell, but I'm not a god."
"Hell ......"
The look of surprise flashed away, and Kanako stared at the small figure in front of her, and asked in a low voice for a while:
"Is it Enma?"
"Nope."
Shiki Yingji shook her head, and the corners of her eyes curled up sarcastically:
"It's Hades."
“......”
At this point, Kanako was completely silent.
There are many Engols in Hell, and there are many of them who can master the power of faith, but there is only one who can be called Hades in the great Hell.
As long as she was born in that era, there is no one who doesn't know her, even if most of them have only heard her name and haven't seen her, but just this explanation of her origin is enough, and her identity is already about to come out-
"Shiki-hime."
With an expression of disbelief, Kanako called out the name of the Hades in front of her.
The gods are also divided into three, six, nine and so on, except for the original gods, those who stand at the top of mythology, there is only one who stands above the gods of mythology and the god of faith, and that is the Lord Hades in front of him.
She said that she was not a god, she was not modest, and in essence, her strength came from faith, but she was not a god.
She is the king of Hades, the supreme representative of the will of hell, in other words, the ruler of the whole of hell.
Unlike the outside world, Hell has not been inhabited by gods since the time of mythology, and there is only a will to hell that resembles a wedge or source.
And it is Hades who really makes hell an order and judges the land of souls, and it can only be Hades.
No one knows when Shikihime began to serve as Hades, and no one knows if there were other Hades before her, only that after she appeared, hell had an established order.
But these are not the main reasons why she can dominate many gods, in the end, in this world, whether it is a monster or a god, the most important thing for them is strength.
Once upon a time, she remembered that someone had said to herself that the so-called gods were just powerful monsters.
At first, she scoffed at this, but since the birth of the myth, after thousands of years from high to remote living in a small temple, the longer she lived, the more Kanako felt that this sentence was the true portrayal of their gods.
The gods also die, especially the weak ones, whose faith is destroyed and their true bodies are killed, which is enough to make them fall into mortal dust above the altar.
And the fate of these slain gods is naturally like humans, people die and the lights go out, and their souls go to hell on the other side to await judgment.
However, how could these gods who had been in the same column as the stars be willing to die by themselves, rebellion was inevitable, but these rebellious gods were all suppressed by hell.
The person who knocked down all those proud souls was none other than the supreme judge of hell, Shikihime.
If the Hakurei shrine maiden represents the order of Gensokyo, then the king of Yama, the four seasons of the Eihime, represents the order of the entire world.
Now that all the primordial gods are gone, there is no doubt that this Hades is the supreme will of this world.
She had never seen Shikihime before, and she didn't know what her strength was, maybe in this outside world, she wasn't the strongest, and the monster gods who surpassed her might not be nothing, but so what?
As long as she is in charge of hell, she is the only "supreme god", and death treats everything in this world equally, whether god or not, she is the same powerless in the face of death.
Thinking of this, Kanako suddenly wanted to laugh out loud, she stared at Shiki Yinghime intently for a moment, and suddenly her left hand was raised, and in the blink of an eye, four imperial pillars fell behind her, shaking the earth.
Seeing this, the four seasons Yingji put away her smile, and at the same time frowned puzzled.
"I've never seen a name before, but I can tell from the aura of faith in you that you must have been a great god in the past, right?"
"Haha."
Hearing this half of the praise, Kanako smiled generously:
"So what?"
"If you're not an ignorant god, and you know my name, you should know what it means to attack me, right?"
Shikihime's words are very rigid, giving people a sense of superiority, although she just wants to be realistic, but Kanako can't understand it.
"Don't be so serious."
It's also one of the gods who look down on all beings.,The feeling of being looked down on like this isn't something Kanako can bear.,Let alone now.,It's now that she's regained her strength.。
Kanako smiled and shook her arms, her whole body did not have any majesty that a god should have, and such a freewheeling movement made her look more like a youkai like Yuka.
"It's rare to see Lord Hades, and it's too boring to have such a cold attitude, right?"
"You ......"
Shiki-eihime's little hand holding the stick of repentance tightened slightly, and Kanako's "adult" made her uncomfortable.
Even if there may be a gap between the two in terms of real status, they are all gods in terms of rank on the surface, and even she, the king of Hades, is not a god, so it is obviously ill-intentioned for the other party to call her so full of different meanings.
Indeed, how many gods in the world have a good impression of Shikihime, the king of Hades? The answer is zero, not a single one.
No god would like to be confronted with a guy who can judge his own good and evil as a god, and who is not a true god himself.
The most important thing is that once the dead soul enters hell, it is completely up to the other party to do whatever they want, Shiki Yingji is notoriously impersonal, and everything will be carried out in full accordance with the established rules.
So no god likes Hades, after all, no matter how good your relationship is, once you go to hell in the future, she will not be ambiguous in the judgment that should be issued.
Kanako's bad attitude is also due to this, but fortunately, she also has her own reliance, not without purpose.
Not to mention having a new faith, she is also a high-level existence among the gods, and she is born based on mythology, but it is not so easy to die.
So she can be unscrupulous and arrogant with the four seasons Yingji, anyway, as long as she doesn't die, in this Gensokyo she really feels that the other party wants to take her down very difficult.
Kanako, who was absolutely confident, didn't think much about it, since the other party wanted to protect Takeya, it was unrealistic for her to want to succeed, but it was impossible to run for nothing like this.
With the four imperial pillars behind him, he rushed to the front of Shiki-hime with an arrow step, and Kanako gave up the majesty of the gods and smashed directly at the other party with her fist.
It's just that what she didn't expect was that this dismount with monstrous power was actually blocked by Siji Yingji with a stick of repentance that was only ten inches in her hand.
