God is present at the top of Mount Fuji.

Kaiima could never have imagined that the one she had tried so hard to summon, even at the expense of herself as a sacrifice, was actually the spirit that it had already encountered and taken back the Yata Mirror from its hands.

That’s Izanami’s fate!

It's like fate is playing a trick on it.

Izanami did not accept the sacrifice, and he was fully qualified to accept it. But perhaps in his opinion, a mere demon like himself was not even qualified to be a sacrifice.

Kayima is not happy, it has no other emotions, only despair.

"It will definitely be possible. As long as Mount Fuji erupts, His Highness Sakuya will definitely come back." It is not meant for others, but for myself.

Mount Fuji calmed down, and there was no more volcanic ash in the sky. Under Mount Fuji, the moon rabbit monster Lunaticus burped.

Ling didn't know whether she should interrupt the fantasy of Mr. Demon God.

At the bottom of the mountain, the lion-like monster had been defeated by Ace, and the man wearing a lion's head trapped in it was also rescued.

Mount Fuji subsided at the same time, as if the volcano really went out because the monster was defeated.

Ling won't fight for this credit, it's meaningless to her.

She opened her palms, and the artifacts placed throughout the Fuji Pass as ritual objects and sacrifices flew up one after another and landed in front of Kagura.

"Miko Kagura, please return these troubles to those shrines."

Lingya is not familiar with other shrines, so it would be better for Kagura to go there for her.

She took a step back and disappeared into the air. It was as if the gods had descended and returned to the Kingdom of God. But in fact, she was just rushing home to do her homework. She was halfway through writing the essay and had forgotten her inspiration.

As for the devil

No matter what it has done, Ling will never say or do anything again.

Because for a being who has chosen death, doing anything is superfluous.

The imperial body is broken.

There are Shibazakura blossoms all over the mountains and plains, and streams of melted snow from Mount Fuji meandering through.

It’s as if I can see Sakuyaji’s smile among the flowers again. He has never left here, he has always been here.

He said that as long as you do evil, you will destroy it with your own hands.

So Kayima was eliminated and disappeared among the Zhizakura bushes. What she said was always right.

"It turns out that the devil also has a soul."

Feeling the soul returning to the original place, Ling also sighed.

So the gods should be the same. They did not disappear, but just entered reincarnation again.

Maybe we met accidentally and didn't know each other.

Shimazu stood in the familiar field of Shibazakura and suddenly felt a little sad. In his memory, there seemed to be someone always looking at him from a distance on the ridge of the field.

The long-lasting memories may just be the dreams of the past, and the complete fragments cannot be pieced together. The person can no longer be found.

"Kaima, I never planned to live from the beginning."

"Maybe it's because my long life has been too lonely."

She is just a witch with no magic power. She can't do anything. All she can do is watch the end of the devil.

【Snow-capped, Shibazakura falling in the mountain stream

The water flows and the song breaks, the spring light reflects on the stone steps]

"What song is this?" Kagura asked.

Shimazu shook his head, "I don't know. It's probably a song in a dream."

"Really?" Kagura responded simply, "The melody is really ancient."

So the two of them stopped talking.

The Yata Mirror is still at Yuefeng Shrine, and Boli hates it so much every day. Maybe it’s not hatred, but unwillingness.

The artifact is enshrined in his shrine, but he cannot tell anyone about it. He wears brocade clothes, but he can only walk at night.

And finally the day came when Ise Shrine came to welcome Yata Mirror back.

"No!" Like a child angry, Lord Boli blocked the entrance to the Torii Gate of Yuekine Shrine.

If you are picking up a bride, you will definitely give a big red envelope.

"What do you want, Palace Secretary Boli?" Palace Master Kagura was not angry, but very calm.

"I want," he thought for a moment, "I want to hold a ritual ceremony here to pay respects to the artifact!"

"Okay."

Bo Li almost thought he heard wrong, Kagura agreed so easily.

"It was Tsukimine Shrine that retrieved the Yata Mirror for us. This request is not too much."

As long as the public doesn't know that the Yata Mirror has been lost, then there will be no problem.

"Then, then, I'm going to take the Yata Mirror to Izumo Taisha Shrine and hold a worship ceremony at Izumo Taisha Shrine!" said Bo Li De.

"Of course you can, as long as Secretary Bo Li can ensure the safety of the artifact."

Is this stinky bitch really so easy to talk to? Bo Li became suspicious.

He didn't believe it. Last year, this woman was the one who scolded him for being a liar. She didn't show mercy at all when she said it.

He makes small profits but loves face the most. Anyone who makes him lose face will hold a grudge for the rest of his life - except for giving money. Giving money is the uncle.

If you are teased casually, it is an insult to your personality. But if you give money, it is like "Uncle, come and play often!"

He felt that the woman now, no, she was the respected Master of Kagura Palace, and she had a tendency to develop into an uncle.

"Palace Master, are you telling the truth?"

"Of course, but the Yata Mirror is a sacred instrument after all. If it is slightly scratched during the moving process, it will be disrespectful to the gods."

He knew it wasn't that simple. But even if he didn't go to Izumo, it would be fine here. Anyway, whatever the meat rots in the pot is his own.

Tsukimine Shrine is a branch of the Izumo Taisha Shrine inheritance, and they are all one family.

"Then what, Hinata! Hinata! You see, the Master of Kagura Palace has been here for a long time, and she doesn't know how to invite anyone in! Go and get a cup of tea. How about hospitality?"

"No need to bother."

Kagura's expression was as usual. Most of the clergy nowadays have this kind of behavior, and she has long been used to it.

She stepped across the torii gate and saw that Oshima Miko was not at the shrine. Kagura didn't know whether to feel disappointed or relieved.

Of course Reiya is in school at this time. Even if she is a miko, she is not full-time like Kagura.

For primary school students, going to school is the most important thing.

When school was over, Tomoyo was called to the teacher's room. Ling also went there because they always go home together.

"This is the syllabus and supplementary exercises for this semester, please... send them to Shionji-san." The class teacher originally said "you", but when he saw Lingya taking the initiative to come along, he changed his name to "you".

"Is it for Shionji-san?" Tomoyo was a little surprised. It wasn't that she didn't want to run errands, but she just felt that such a task was a bit abrupt.

Shionji Yuko, the girl who calls herself Alice, has never been to school since that day.

I only come to school for one day in a semester. Neet disease is really scary.

But she and Ling are neither study committee members nor class presidents. Why did the class teacher let them go?

Although Lingya's grades are enough to make her a study committee member, she is lazy and has no ambition. Being a class committee member is something that can be avoided if possible.

"Eh? But aren't you and Shionji friends?"

Friends? Are they already friends?

"Look, when Shionji was in school, except for the two of you, he never spoke to anyone else."

Is that so?

It seems to be true. They even call each other by their first names instead of their last names.

Alice

What is it but a friend?

Tomoyo thinks it doesn't matter, she is also happy to help the classmates in the class.

Surprisingly, Alice lived in Mitani Ward. This is a place whose name cannot be found on later maps of Tokyo.

Because this is a slum, a place that Tokyo does not want to admit. If Ling remembers correctly, in the 1980s and 1990s, the zoning here was revoked, split into several blocks, and merged into other administrative districts.

Nowadays, this place is still a mixed bag, an area that all Tokyoites dislike.

Reiya and Tomoyo were both surprised. It was hard for them to imagine that Alice would live in such a place. After all, the tuition fees for enrolling in an aristocratic school like Tomoeda Elementary School are not cheap.

However, some people like to live in deep houses, and where some people live has nothing to do with whether their family is poor or rich.
