Anime: The younger brother of the Sawada family

Chapter 205 New Year's Visit (Part 2)

In order to simply answer the questions of the little boy Haibara Yu who had turned into a hundred thousand questions, the five people came to Namimori Shrine. They took a detour and delayed for a while on the road. They did not see the other two groups of people, and they did not know whether they had already gone back or were still on the way. Judging from the time, they had probably finished the worship and returned.

There were unexpectedly many people coming to worship at this time. Along the way, many students from Namimori Middle School came forward to say hello, and Miyin nodded in response to each one.

If the braid at the back of his head was still tied up, they would probably mistake him for Tsunayoshi, but now that the braid was hanging down over his shoulders, there was absolutely no way he could be mistaken!

After dealing with the last person, Gojo Satoru quietly leaned over to the other person's ear and whispered, "Which god is worshipped in this shrine?"

"It's the most common god of fortune," Yaon replied. "I'm not sure which one it is, but it's probably Ebisu."

There was another group of people ahead of them, and seeing that it would soon be their turn, Gojo Satoru quickly asked the question in his mind: "By the way, as a Shinsengumi, you actually come to the shrine to worship?"

"I don't come here every year. I'll just remind you whenever I remember." Miyin shrugged, looking indifferent.

"remind?"

Before Gojo Satoru could ask again, the two people in front of him finished their worship and it was their turn.

He took two steps forward, took out a one-yen coin from his sleeve and threw it into the cash box. He grabbed the bell next to it and shook it, making the bell on it ring.

“I hope this year will also be a peaceful year for you.”

After clapping his hands vigorously twice and bowing slightly, Miyin said with a bright smile.

Gojo Satoru, who was standing next to him, listened to what the other person said with a puzzled look, and then quickly realized that this was addressed to the gods.

Shinsengumi... the one who judges the gods?

In the distant Takama-ga-hara, the gods who were being worshipped by the public all shuddered at the same time, as if a familiar and unpleasant aura was staring at them. Fortunately, it disappeared after a few seconds.

As the object of worship, Ebisu looked expressionlessly at the one-yen coin that suddenly appeared in his palm, silently complaining that this stingy little Shinsengumi dared to throw in a coin larger than one yen.

Miyin said that it was good enough that he could throw money to you instead of robbing you!

After the shrine visit, Geto Suguru left ahead with his two younger classmates. They needed to digest the shocking news that their friend was the second-in-command of the world consciousness. After getting the other party's consent, they prepared to tell the news to Nozomi, who was spending the New Year at her home.

They're the "Melon Eaters" Alliance! News has to be shared! They can't be the only ones shocked!

Seeing what they were thinking, Miyin grabbed Gojo Satoru's arm and laughed for a while, but finally told them the truth.

"I'm said to possess the second-in-command power under the world consciousness, but in reality, I'm at best a judge. Honestly, I'm no different from an ordinary person. Using my senses to find people on a daily basis is already the maximum I can do."

What he didn't say was that once his deeper powers were unlocked, he might not be considered human anymore.

Anyone who kills gods will eventually be contaminated by some traces of divinity. It is an energy system that cannot be eliminated. Once it is contaminated, it will remain in the body forever and will accumulate as the number of kills increases. When it accumulates to a certain level, the final outcome is explosion and death.

After death, will one dissipate into the world, enter the high heavens and become a god, or fall into hell and never be reborn... No one knows.

Fortunately, there is Huojin God who can help deal with troubles between gods, so he can live a good life until he dies old.

Far away in the home of the God of Poverty, the purple-haired, blue-eyed God of Misfortune suddenly sneezed...

As for the gods of other countries? That was none of his business. He wasn't so far-fetched as to venture into other people's territory. Gakaphis was enough to handle foreign affairs.

Let’s go a little further and come back to the present.

After saying goodbye to his friends, Miyin walked aimlessly with Gojo Satoru with his hands in his pockets. He wanted to go home and change out of his kimono, but suddenly remembered that his family members might be visiting his home, and it would be inappropriate to disturb the young couple.

"Hey, what wish did you make just now?" Miyin spoke, breaking the rare silence.

"Of course I hope our relationship will be successful~" Gojo Satoru, who was originally thinking about something, came back to his senses in an instant and said in a cheerful tone.

He shouldn't have asked that.

Gojo Satoru smiled, gently took his hand and held it, interlocking their fingers: "I'm kidding, the wish I made is that you will have peace and everything goes well in your life."

"Then you might as well just carry it with you for protection." Miyin teased.

"As long as you agree, I'd be happy to do that."

"I don't agree. I absolutely don't agree." Miyin shook her head decisively, "But... you actually believe this?"

"I didn't believe it at first, but now I believe it." Gojo Satoru quietly squeezed his hand.

His boyfriend seemed to have a more dangerous job than him as a sorcerer, which made him nervous.

"What kind of existence is God? Can I tell you?" he asked.

"Hiss... let me think about it." Miyin, who had never given this much thought, raised her head and looked at the sky above through the dead branches. "From the perspective of a sorcerer... it seems that gods are similar to cursed spirits?"

"Ah?" Gojo Satoru, who originally thought that his identity was very impressive, suddenly felt that he could beat five people with one punch after hearing this description.

"Cursed spirits are born from human negativity, and gods are born from human faith. Ultimately, they come from the same source. Is that clear enough?"

Seeing the other party nod, Miyin continued.

"Unlike cursed spirits, gods possess their own thoughts and organizations. They are above all living beings and are led by Amaterasu. They can hear the wishes of their believers, and whether or not they fulfill them is up to them."

"There are tens of thousands of gods in Takama-ga-hara, and there are also many nameless gods on earth who are trying to join the 'celestial register'. One of my jobs is to determine if any of these nameless gods have fallen into demonic status and slay them."

"But I haven't killed any so far, because there's a god called Huojin who always solves the problem before me, so I don't get to take action."

Having said that, Miyin shrugged, and Huojinshen in the distance sneezed again.

"Don't underestimate gods. They may share the same origin, but gods and cursed spirits are completely different. Cursed spirits can be removed at will, but as long as there is faith in a god, he is immortal. Even if he dies, he will lose his memory and be reincarnated again."

"Well, actually, my swords can be considered gods, but they are the lowest level Tsukumogami, perhaps more like spirits, so they are no different from humans."

"Then can I assume that gods are cursed spirits covered in a layer of golden skin?" Gojo Satoru concluded.

"I think so...right?" Miyin, suddenly feeling a lot lower in status, thought about it uncertainly and added, "But the power of a god is completely incomparable to that of a cursed spirit. You'd better not even think about provoking them."

"You just need to remember that gods are beings that humans cannot mess with."
