Monster Mountain.

As the name suggests, this is a mountain inhabited by youkai, but not long ago, a few slightly special inhabitants moved here, who are neither youkai nor humans, but gods.

"Well, what should I do......"

On the mountain path, the white-haired tengu was sighing to himself.

She wears the same six-pointed star hat as Wenwen, with three white balls strung with strings on either side, and her clothes are armpit outfits similar to those of shrine maidens with a white tone, and her skirt is maple leaf color.

She is dressed in tall clogs, and her two furry ears on her head and a small tail behind her hint at her identity as a white wolf tengu.

Her name is Inugotsu, and as a tengu in charge of vigilance and defense in the Yokai Mountain Tengu Society, her daily job is to patrol the entire Yokai Mountain, and when she finds an intruder, she will first warn and then expel them, and then decide whether to report to the Daitengu depending on the situation.

Because of the power of the Great Tengu above, there are basically no people who come to the Monster Mountain to find trouble, which leads to the fact that Tsubaki's daily life is very easy, but this ease has ended today.

"Should I say it......

Tsubaki is very troubled right now, and the reason is related to the two gods who moved into the mountain of youkai not long ago.

The shrine built in the territory of the yokai, called Shouya Shrine, is inhabited by two powerful gods, which Tsubaki knows from his friend Bunfumi, but the next question is the one that matters.

Instead of recruiting the faith of humans in the normal way, the gods of Shouya Shrine set their sights on their yokai, hoping to gain the faith of the yokai.

This is undoubtedly a very innovative idea, and there are many youkai living in the Yokai Mountain, such as the Tengu clan as a managerial class, and kappa who depend on the tengu for their survival.

If the gods want to collect faith in the mountain of youkai, it is impossible for them to ignore the lord-level great youkai here, that is, their leader, the Great Tengu.

Strangely, however, the Great Tengu did not issue an order to stop the two gods' efforts to collect faith, but he also did not say anything like consent, which was generally an attitude of ignorance.

Because of this relationship, some of the youkai in the mountain of youkai have begun to believe in the Moriya Shrine, and it stands to reason that even if you are not interested in the gods, there is no reason to stop these things.

That's why her troubles come from that.

The Great Tengu has made a decision to ignore the actions of the gods, and she, as a subordinate, can only obey, so she should also make some concessions to the two gods of Shouya Shrine, at least in her attitude.

But today, she saw one of the gods of Shouya Shrine returning from outside in a rage, and she didn't know what she was angry about, and in a fit of rage, she made the weather around the mountain of youkai change drastically.

First it rained and then it bleed, and the lightning thundered continuously, which caused great trouble to the youkai living in Yokai Mountain.

So she was hesitating whether she should go to the Great Tengu to talk to the god and coordinate with the god, but just as she was making up her mind, a familiar call suddenly dragged her steps back.

"Tsubaki~"

"Huh?"

Before she could come back to her senses, a soft scent suddenly entered her arms, and the black-haired Raven Tengu wrapped her around her neck and hugged her tightly, which suddenly caused her to almost lose her footing.

"Wenwen?"

Seeing the person in his arms clearly, Chu was stunned at first, and then ashamed:

"Don't, don't hold me like this, come down quickly!"

"Hey, hey, it's still so easy to be shy."

Revealing a kitten-like evil smile, Wenwen half-covered his small mouth and teased:

"Anyway, no one sees it, what's wrong with hugging more."

"Stupid, stupid! I have something to do right now! I don't have time to ....... you."

The words in his mouth stopped abruptly, and he broke free from Wenwen's bear hug with a flushed face, and waited until the heavy rain cooled down his roasted cheeks before he whispered:

"I, I'm going to see Daitengu-sama now, Wenwen, don't mess around."

"To see Daitengu-sama?"

椤's words really made Wenwen restrain all the funny expressions on his face, the big tengu is the existence at the top of the tengu society, and when it comes to that adult, even Wenwen doesn't dare to treat it casually.

"Did something happen?"

"Well, actually, ......"

Seeing that Wenwen's expression became serious, she didn't hesitate, and immediately explained her opinion, but when Wenwen listened, she smiled indifferently.

"You're thinking too much, Tsubaki."

"......"

Looking at the sky dominated by the wrath of the gods, Tsubaki was unwilling to say:

"Are we just pretending not to see?"

"Daitengu-sama has already made up his mind."

Although Wenwen also has the idea of 椤, it is not so strong, it is nothing more than the dissatisfaction caused by outsiders' unscrupulous on their territory.

Fumiwen was a little more thoughtful than Tsubaki who was just carrying out orders, and since the Great Tengu had allowed these gods to collect the beliefs of youkai, whether she opened her mouth or not, the matter was already half done.

The leaders have already acquiesced, so what's the use of them struggling anymore? Besides, as one of those in the know, Wenwen completely understood why that god-sama was so angry.

The reason for this has to be attributed to a certain human being, looking at the direction of Hakurei Shrine from afar, Wenwen showed a helpless smile.

You're the one who is really unscrupulous, right, Takeya, but the catastrophe you've caused will be borne by us for the time being.

"Don't worry, Tsubaki."

patting Chun's shoulder, Wenwen said comfortingly.

Fumibun was originally assigned by the Great Tengu to communicate with the Moriya Shrine, after all, it was to establish a shrine in their Yokai Mountain, and the necessary communication was still indispensable.

As a waiter, she has already met the two gods of Moriya Shrine, Yasaka Kanako and Suwako Leakya Shrine, the former is irritable and gives people the impression of being brainless, but fortunately the latter is a sensible guy.

Suwako, that god is different from Yasaka Kanako, who appeared as the façade of Shouya Shrine, although it doesn't seem to be very strong, but the depth in his eyes reveals wisdom that is different from ordinary people.

If it were her, she would have known that venting too much would incur the displeasure of the youkai, which would be contrary to their original intention of gaining faith.

So she's definitely going to stop it.

Wenwen, who thought of this, said to Chun:

"This won't last long, and it will probably be a little while before the weather will be back to normal."

"Hmmm......"

Tsubaki nodded in understanding, although there was no clear distinction between the crow tengu and the white wolf tengu, but she listened to Wenwen's words very much, not only because the relationship between the two was extraordinary, but also because Wenwen's decision was correct every time.
