Chapter 42: The First Step in Gathering Faith

Chun's decision was correct, because for this incident, Wenwen was right again.

At this time, in the Moriya Shrine, although Kanako's face was still full of anger, Sanae had calmed down, and even began to comfort Kanako.

"Well, Kanako-sama, it's almost time for you to lose your breath, right?"

"No way, this matter must not be left as it is."

Kanako angrily drank the wine cup in front of her, slammed it on the table and made a heavy sound:

"Forget it the first time, there is a second time for this kind of thing! I've never suffered such humiliation at Shouya Shrine! ”

"Kanako-sama......"

Sanae smiled bitterly, she didn't know how to speak, she had the same opinion as Kanako about being humiliated by humans three times and twice, but it wasn't this thing that she was struggling with.

They are now on someone else's territory, and their faith is not yet firmly established, is it too much to be so angry and affect the innocent?

"Stand down, Sanae."

Suwako, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke, Sanae retreated as if she had been amnestied, and Suwako took her place and sat in front of Kanako:

"I said you, you're not too young, why are you still so childish."

"Long-winded! Aren't you angry, Suwako! ”

Now that Sanae has left, Kanako doesn't have to maintain the majesty in front of people, and there is even a hint of grievance in her tone:

"That human is too much! What's even more excessive is that those guys actually joined forces to help him! This is clearly bullying us as outsiders! ”

What Kanako said is justified and righteous, and she almost took the camera and added another picture with the truth.

Yakumo Zi won't talk about it, this guy who was barely a good person in her eyes is actually the biggest shady behind this incident, and the trace of good feelings that Kanako originally had for this realm monster is now gone.

Although the other party is the object of helping them gain faith and can be called a benefactor in a sense, but she is trying to protect Wuya, and even concealed such a terrifying thing!

If it weren't for the fact that he didn't think that the odds of winning on the spot were not great, Kanako would have already started a war with Yakumo Zi.

Not to mention the other guy, Shikihime seems to be a partner on their god's side on the surface, but in reality? What this Hades says is completely different from what he does in his hands.

What is this not in accordance with the rules of hell, what she can't judge the living, it is obviously shirking! The young girl almost pointed at Takeya and said that it was her own son, so clearly biased Kanako is not blind, and she can't see that there is a ghost.

"Suwako! If we choose to remain silent again, they will definitely think that we are bullies! ”

Kanako's eyes already have the meaning of not being able to back down, no matter what the situation outside says, unity must be guaranteed within Shouya Shrine, so she chose to convince Suwako as soon as possible.

"Ugh."

Another sigh, how could Suwako not know what Kanako said, although this friend of hers is not good at thinking about problems, but she is not stupid, and what she said has a certain truth.

If she chooses to reconcile every time, Shouya Shrine will always be looked down upon, and she also thought about pursuing it vigorously, but it's just ......

"We didn't see it this time."

"Suwako!"

Kanako looked at the friend in front of her in disbelief, although the other party's eyes were also unwilling, but it was only a fleeting moment, and it was replaced by an unquestionable determination.

"This time it's like I didn't see anything."

"But ......!"

"Please, Kanako."

“...... Well. ”

Although Kanako still wanted to say something, she was asked by Suwako with such a serious attitude, and no matter how much she said, she finally turned into a muffled snort and was stillborn.

Suwako saw the grievances in Kanako's expression, and she was also sad, so she had no choice but to open her mouth and comfort:

"Kanako, I can tell you what I'm going to say next, but you remember, when you go out, you have to act like you've never heard anything, understand?"

"Suwako...... Well! ”

Kanako looked at Suwako in surprise, and every time she spoke in such a tone in her memory, she always prepared some terrible plan.

"Our patience is only temporary, Kanako."

Although she knew that no one would peep around the enchantment, Suwako subconsciously lowered her voice:

"The humiliation I have received must be repaid a hundredfold, this is my principle."

"Hmm."

Kanako nodded vigorously, and she agreed with that.

"But you have to know that there is no chance of winning against them now, that human doesn't care for the time being, the monster sage, Hades, I'm afraid you have to count his messy friends, it is impossible to win against so many strong enemies at once in Gensokyo."

"Hmmm......"

Kanako lowered her gaze with an ugly face, even though she knew that this was the truth, but it was still a little painful to face it calmly.

"So, Kanako, the first step is that we have to expand our strength."

"Expand your strength?"

Kanako was stunned:

"Do you want to bring those youkai as allies?"

"That's not right."

Suwako shook her head:

"The power of outsiders is the power of outsiders after all, and as I said, it is the strength of 'our' that needs to be expanded."

"But ......"

Kanako said with some embarrassment:

"All we can use is the power of faith, and where can we expand further?"

"That's wrong, Kanako."

A mysterious smile appeared at the corner of Suwako's mouth:

"Have you forgotten? Why are we in God's place simply above all beings? ”

"That's ......"

Kanako closed her eyes and fell into the memory, and after a while, she opened her eyes suddenly, and her eyes were full of surprise, no, horror.

"Suwako, do you want to ......?"

"'Believers.'"

The smile on Suwako's immature little face is no longer there, and it is all cold that does not fit the appearance:

"What we need is not human beings who believe in the gods, but 'believers' who are servants of the gods."

“...... Can't do it. ”

Kanako pondered for a moment and shook her head decisively, but she questioned not Suwako's decision, but the feasibility of this decision:

"The humans in Gensokyo were raised in captivity by youkai in order to continue to exist, and we want to transform them into 'believers' of the gods, and those youkai will definitely not fail to find out."

"Don't worry."

Suwako's expression was extremely complacent:

"I'm not trying to do this in a short period of time, just collect some ordinary beliefs for the time being, as long as the seeds are planted, they will sprout one day."

"However, if we turn all humans into 'believers', then we will also break with the youkai side completely?"

"You're wrong, Kanako."

With a chuckle, the sharpness in Suwako's eyes was revealed:

"The plan of the 'believers' is not to be used as a force that actually exists, but as a threat!"

"Threat?"

"Yes, if they try to persecute us again, then we will convert all the humans in Gensokyo into 'believers', and make the yokai completely unplaced!"

"Is it a lose-lose threat......

At this moment, Kanako finally understood the true purpose of Suwako's plan, and she also felt the power of the great god of the god for the first time in a long time.

"Okay, I'm okay, so what are we going to do now?"

"Don't worry, what we have to do at this stage is just some basic preparations, since we want to turn those humans into candidates for 'believers', we must first make them believe in Shouya Shrine."

Suwako put away her gloomy expression and smiled faintly:

"There is a shrine at the end of the east, and it is also the only shrine in Gensokyo, Hakurei Shrine, as the first step to collect faith, let's occupy it first!"
