Use FGO to open the second dimension

Reimu Hakurei's combat power is enough to compete with top-level servants, so there is no need to worry too much about her combat power.

Ryougi Shiki possesses the Mystic Eyes that can see through death, which Shiki Eihime can see at a glance. After all, she is Yama from hell and deals with death every day. How could she not see through Ryougi Shiki's power to look directly into death?

Miyamoto Musashi is an existence that belongs to the cutting matter. He is a traveler from another world who transcends his own world and comes to another world. He may be a little lacking in combat power, but he has certain abilities in dealing with Konpaku Youmu.

This combination is undoubtedly very powerful, and it looks like I can relax a little.

"Come with me, Komachi. I'll take them across the Sanzu River and to the Hall of Right and Wrong for a discussion!"

With this, Shiki Eihime headed towards the Sanzu River. There was more than one God of Death, but Komachi was the one that gave her the most headaches. Who could blame her for being the most lazy among so many God of Death? And Komachi's job was to ferry people across the Sanzu River. Once Komachi was not there, the souls of the dead would remain in the outside world, which would cause big problems in the outside world.

To be honest, part of the problem of the undead rampage on the ground was caused by Komachi's laziness.

Noticing this, Komachi couldn't help but tremble slightly. It seemed that her laziness had led to serious consequences.

Seeing the Shinigami ferrying over to greet Shiki Ei-hime, Koizumi couldn't help but reveal a look of surprise.

"So there's more than just Komachi among the Shinigami..."

Of course, Koizumi's words were nonsense. How could Onozuka Komachi be the only Shinigami in this world? Furthermore, if Komachi were alone, her workload would be immense. To dare slack off in that situation... she'd be truly fearless. Judging from the look in Koizumi's eyes, this Shiki Eihime must be a very stern and serious type.

"Of course. If Komachi is the only god of death, then if she keeps being so lazy, hell will be in big trouble. After all, the god of death's job is not just to be the ferryman of the Sanzu River. In addition to ferrying people, the god of death must also record the lifespans of people still living in the real world, explain to the ghosts who feel uncomfortable in hell, and guide them to their destinations. He also accompanies Yanma to the judgment and records the content and process of the judgment. These tasks require a very responsible and capable god of death to take on and solve. And Komachi——"

Having said that, Shiki Eiji glanced at the frightened Komachi, and a hint of coldness flashed across her eyes.

"With Komachi's work attitude, it's only natural for her to be laid off at any time!"

Reimu's mouth twitched fiercely. That being said, after so many years until he came to Gensokyo, this God of Death is still lazy all day long. I haven't seen any layoffs. I only saw him sleeping soundly, not worried about layoffs at all.

Koizumi was speechless, his lips twitching violently, and he was very curious about the system of hell.

"So you guys in hell even have layoffs? It really feels like a modern office worker."

Musashi scratched his head, patted Koizumi's shoulder, and said that he was surprised by things he had never seen before. However, Musashi had experienced the existence of countless worlds and had a certain understanding of this aspect.

Komachi gave an awkward smile. Well, if she continued like this, she would be in danger of being laid off.

But then again, what will the Grim Reaper do after being laid off?

Koizumi couldn't imagine what it would be like for a Shinigami to be laid off. The Shinigami of this country were truly peculiar.

After getting on Komachi's boat, Koizumi began to appreciate the scenery. Even Ryougi Shiki and Musashi couldn't help but admire the scenery on the other side. The countless red spider lilies looked very gorgeous from afar.

By the way, another name for Lycoris radiata is Red Spider Lily. It is said that this plant only grows on the other side of the world, and it is not certain whether it exists in other places. However, if you see Red Spider Lily, you can basically conclude that you are dead. Of course, this only applies to ordinary people.

According to legend, Lycoris radiata is a flower that voluntarily went to hell and was sent back by the demons. However, it still lingered on the road to the underworld. The demons could not bear it, so they allowed it to bloom on this road to give guidance and comfort to the souls leaving the human world.

It is generally believed that it is a guiding flower that only blooms on the banks of the Sanzu River in the underworld and on the other side of the Wangchuan River.

Legend has it that the fragrance of flowers has magical powers and can evoke the memory of the dead.

Because of its fiery red color, it is known as the "Road of Fire" and is the only scenery and color on this long Yellow Springs Road.

When the soul crosses the River of Forgetfulness, it forgets everything in its life, and everything in the past remains on the other side. The deceased then follows the guidance of the flower to the underworld.

After passing the sea of ​​red spider lilies, you can see the Wangxiang Terrace. This is the last chance for the dead to visit their family members. Faintly, Gu Quan and others can hear bursts of ghost cries from the Wangxiang Terrace.

Musashi looked in the direction of Wangxiangtai, was silent for a moment, and then followed Koizumi.

After the Wangxiangtai is the Three Lives Stone, and finally the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

The six realms of reincarnation govern the rules of rebirth. Some are reborn, some suffer in hell, and some enter the underworld, slowly waiting for the day of becoming a Buddha.

By the way, to become a Buddha is to become a celestial being, which means an existence without desires or demands.

From what Reimu said, it seemed like she knew a celestial being.

Wait a minute! If that were the case, wouldn't there be a path from Hell to Heaven?

Koizumi frowned slightly. So hell was underground, and somewhere there was a road leading directly to the sky...

There's actually a line connecting heaven and earth? Koizumi couldn't imagine it.

Slowly, under the guidance of Komachi and Eiji, they finally arrived at the Hall of Right and Wrong.

Chapter 373 The Reason for the Undead Rage

There is a ten-meter-high door here that looks very luxurious, with the words "Hall of Right and Wrong" written on it. There is no doubt that this is where Shiki Yingji works, and most of the ghosts in hell come here to be convicted.

This is a public organization affiliated with Hell, the administrative body of the afterlife. It oversees the unified management of all levels of Hell's functional agencies. The Ten Kings serve as supreme leaders, with Yama, responsible for judgment, and the Ghost Chiefs, responsible for torture and interrogation. Each Yama is accompanied by several Shinigami, and each Ghost Chief is accompanied by several ghosts. Any public official in the Court of Right and Wrong who holds the rank of judge is called a Yama, and Shiki Eihime is a judge.

During a trial, the judge reads out the defendant's crimes and renders a verdict based on the severity and content of the crime. The judge does not consider the deceased's opinions, leaving the decision entirely to the judge's subjective judgment. Once a verdict is finalized, it cannot be changed. The final verdict of the trial serves only to determine the ghost's future destination.

To be honest, Shiki Yingji must be very tired every day, after all, a lot of people die every day.

In addition, the undead have been rampant recently, and the death toll is countless. The pressure should be many times greater than usual.

But it seems that she is not working at all, which is really confusing.

But thinking about the matter of the Journey to the West monster, Gu Quan could roughly guess that the other party should be dealing with the matter of the Journey to the West monster.

Walking into the Hall of Right and Wrong, it is a completely empty hall. There are many paintings engraved on the surrounding reliefs, but most of these paintings look very scary. They are nothing more than the punishments that hell imposes on those evil people. They seem to contain very strong energy. Every vengeful spirit that walks in here will be shocked by these words.

I had expected this place to be very quiet, as judging crimes was supposed to be a serious matter, and once things got serious, the tranquil atmosphere would be fully realized. However, Koizumi was overthinking it.

There are so many dead people in this world. If Shiki Eiji were to judge them all by herself, she would be exhausted to death.

There must be hell workers other than Shiki Eihime in hell, so not all responsibilities are placed on her alone. After all, there is more than one Yama in hell. For example, Shiki Eihime also has a Yama sister, Shiki Eihua, right?

Ignoring the ongoing trial, Shiki Eiji took Koizumi and the others to another side and lectured them.

That's right, a scolding. I didn't have time before, but now is the time to scold Komachi! Don't think I don't know she's being lazy.

If she hadn't been caught slacking off, how could she have been coerced by others?

When she thought about this, Shiki Yingji couldn't help but feel dissatisfied. She didn't listen to her advice and was still being lazy!

"Komachi! I've told you before that you can't be lazy, yet you still dare to do such a thing? Do you know that if you are lazy, order will be disrupted! Countless souls will end up stuck in the Sanzu River because there is no ferryman. What if some souls get bored staying there and return to the bardo and then to the human world? The number of reincarnated souls will decrease, and most importantly, what if someone is dragged away by water ghosts? The fiscal revenue of Hell is not that good to begin with! Without you, there will be no way to collect the money from those who cross the river. Then..."

Koizumi listened attentively, but his expression became increasingly strange, because...

It turns out that hell reincarnates others in order to collect their money. I always thought that if there were fewer people reincarnated, there would be no problem. Now it seems that hell also needs corresponding money.

No, it should be said that Yanma like Shiki Eihime also needs a certain amount of financial support, that is, salary.

Oh my, my, what should I do if my usual impression of those Yamas is completely shattered at this moment?

I didn't expect that people in hell also need to rely on collecting money to survive. It seems very strange when you say that.

Koizumi couldn't help but let out a wry smile. It turns out that even Hell needs money to support it. It's really...

It seems that the saying "money makes the world go round" is true. After all, even the god of death needs a salary.

Musashi was stunned by the scene in front of him. It was so scary. It was said in such a way that no one could refute it!

Reimu showed a sympathetic expression. It was really a headache to have such a boss who would scold him to death for being lazy once.

Fortunately, I don’t have any superiors, and Yakumo Yukari’s words are just as shameless, so there is nothing to worry about.

If I have a boss like this who is so serious all day long, I am afraid that sooner or later I will be scolded to death by him.

"Ahhhhhhhhhh!!! Lady Yingji! I won't dare to do it again! There won't be a next time!!!!"

Komachi covered the place where she was hit by the opponent's token and cried out in pain, tears almost coming out.

But Shiki Eiji still believes what she says? You're overthinking it! She says the same thing every time! But what happens in the end? Humph! Shiki Eiji still doesn't understand her personality? How is that possible!

Would she be obedient and stop slacking off after a beating? How could that be possible! Komachi not slacking off was as unbelievable as the Saigo demon not disrupting the balance of the world! That was certain, so Shiki Eiji decided to smash her head in!

However, thinking that Koizumi was still watching from the side, Shiki Eiji, who was very unhappy, could only endure it for the time being.

The next moment, Shiki Eiji cast her gaze towards Koizumi, took a deep breath, and then spoke.

"You're planning to ask about the Westward Journey Demon and the undead rampage on Earth, right?"

Having said that, Shiki Eiji pondered for a moment, her eyes twinkling with brilliance, and then she continued speaking.

"Let's put aside the matter of the Journey to the West monster for now and talk about the undead rampage. This has only recently started. The death aura on the ground has suddenly skyrocketed. Famine, fighting, and plague have begun to rage in this world. The number of the dead has skyrocketed. Even Hell can't accommodate so many undead at once. In addition, Hell has recently had some financial problems. We are already preparing to relocate Hell... The undead rampage is precisely because Hell is overcrowded with undead, so they have fled to the surface."

Upon hearing this, Koizumi couldn't help but reveal a look of realization. So that's how it is...

Come to think of it, it turns out that even hell has a fiscal deficit problem. This is really unimaginable.

Chapter 374: The Demon Journey to the West (Part 1)

"By the way, will Hell also face a financial crisis? Does staying in a place like this cost money?"

Koizumi looked at Shiki Eihime in front of him speechlessly, causing Shiki Eihime to roll her eyes at Koizumi.

"What do you think hell is? Even Yama gets paid, right? Besides, this place is truly unbearable. The current hell environment is simply too harsh for ordinary people to endure."

Having said that, Shiki Yingji frowned slightly, looked around, and sighed in her heart.

But Shiki Eihime's words actually made Koizumi curious. Is the environment here very harsh?

"What's wrong with the environment here? I think it's just like a normal office space, with not much light."

Reimu frowned slightly, as if she had noticed something, and a hint of realization flashed in her eyes.

As a Hakurei shrine maiden, she had more or less realized that the environment here was indeed not suitable.

After all, it is the old hell of Gensokyo. I was sweating a lot when fighting with the Yatagarasu in the old hell in the past.

Musashi glanced around and then nodded slightly. She seemed to have noticed something. As an excellent swordsman or even a swordsman, she also had a certain amount of experience in controlling the surrounding environment.

Ryougi Shiki looked at the place where she was standing, frowned slightly, and then continued to close her eyes.

She also realized that this place was hell after all, so it should be geographically close to...

Shiki Eiji sighed softly, a sigh that carried a hint of disappointment, making Koizumi even more puzzled.

"You, you! This is hell! Don't you realize that this place is deep underground? It's close to the Earth's core. If they weren't incredibly strong, many of them would die from the heat! Even a normal person wouldn't be able to stand working in a place like this, let alone those undead who've just arrived in hell. They'd faint from the heat before they even get judged."

Can the undead also sense the temperature of their surroundings? Koizumi really wanted to complain about this, but he also knew that if he did, he would lose.

"Why do you think Hell's finances are in trouble? Isn't it because of this relationship?"

Is there a direct correlation between the temperature and Hell's financial problems? Probably not, right? Koizumi continued to complain in his mind.

But Koizumi knew very well that if he told the truth, he would probably be hit by the token in the other party's hand.

"Okay, I'm asking this question because I'm full and have nothing better to do. So, what's causing the undead to wreak havoc on the ground? Plague, famine, struggle... all of these things happening at the same time? That's a bit too much..."

A solemn expression appeared on Koizumi's face, his eyes fixed on Shiki Eihime.

Shaking her head slightly, a solemn look appeared on Shiki Yingji's face, and the token in her hand tightened slightly.

"Regarding this, I speculate that there are other reasons that prompted this incident to happen. It may also be related to the Journey to the West incident. However, since I have been busy with the Journey to the West incident recently, I have postponed this matter for a while. Compared to the consequences of the Journey to the West incident, this matter seems less important. Although this statement is a bit irresponsible, it is also a helpless move. Sometimes you have to make certain choices."

Koizumi nodded at Shiki Eihime's words. She was right. Sometimes one has to make a choice.

If the consequences of the Westward Journey Demon's outbreak are more serious than the rampage of the undead, then the Westward Journey Demon must be the first thing to be resolved. Therefore, Koizumi has no right to say anything about Shiki Eiji's actions.

You have to know that until now, we and others have not received any concrete news about the Journey to the West monster.

"Damn it! Who on earth is so outrageous as to spread plague and famine among the people? It's truly despicable!"

A hint of anger appeared on Musashi's face. Seeing countless children suffer because of this kind of thing, her emotions were a little out of control. To be honest, she could never forgive such an excessive bastard.

This is Miyamoto Musashi, who has justice in his heart but never considers himself righteous.

"Things like plague can be spread, but things like struggle...how can we do that..."

Koizumi couldn't help but show a hint of confusion on his face, but Reimu spoke up and solved Koizumi's doubts.

"Don't forget, as long as you mobilize emotions, it's easy to provoke a fight. Doesn't Qin Xin have this ability? But then again, the relationship between monsters and humans is extremely tense at this point in time. Anyone who knows how to mobilize emotions can easily provoke a fight between monsters and humans."

Reimu's words made Koizumi suddenly realize something. It seemed to be the same. If it was Qin Xin, then it could be said to be extremely simple. After all, Qin Xin himself was good at this type of ability.

"I see, what Reimu said makes sense. Looks like I need to pay attention to this aspect as well!"

Koizumi covered his forehead with his hands in a headache, then glanced at Shiki Eiji again and began to ask about the business.

For him, the current matter of the Journey to the West monster is the real business. Just as Shiki Yingji said, he also has to make certain choices. If he really does not have the ability to solve both sides at the same time, he can only choose one direction to deal with it.

"Then let me ask you about the Westward Journey Demon. How did the Westward Journey Demon appear? And what exactly is the matter of resolving the Westward Journey Demon? Lord Yama, you should also know why we are here."

Shiki Eiji could hear a hint of respect in Koizumi's tone, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.

After all, she is not very popular. After all, she loves to preach so much. Even Komachi is a little bit wary of her preaching. Although she knows the reason, she is still afraid of her preaching.

It was rare that Koizumi actually had a certain respect for her, which made Shiki Eiji quite happy.

No god would hate being respected.

However, after hearing Koizumi's question, Shiki Eiji was silent for a moment before she slowly spoke.

"In fact, the Journey to the West monster is not a demon from the human world. After all, how did the Journey to the West monster appear? Based on the current information, there is no reasonable reason. All we know is that the Journey to the West monster appeared in Hell at some unknown time..."
