I rely on myself

Chapter 478 The beginning of chaos

"Expel a dragon? Aren't you the patron of dragons?"

Kusanagi Godou found something suspicious in the words of the God, and asked subconsciously, to which the Monkey God replied casually.

"It's true that I protected the dragon, but that was after I subdued it and took it in as my younger brother. Don't look at me like that. I am a member of Steel after all, and fighting with dragons and snakes is a common occurrence."

After hearing this explanation, Kusanagi Godou also understood some of the other party's characteristics.

Although the conversation was not long, it was enough.

To be honest, after this contact, Kusanagi Godou is no longer worried about Manritani Hikaru serving as the shrine maiden of the monkey god in front of him.

Perhaps because of the seal, the Monkey God's personality tends to be somewhat lazy and quiet, and he will basically not be dangerous, provided that his current attitude is not a disguise.

However, Kusanagi Godou judged that the other party's attitude at this time should not be a disguise. After all, the strength of the so-called God of Disobedience is linked to the self, so basically what they reveal is their nature.

“Um, Hikaru…”

Kusanagi Godou, who had completely put his mind at ease, was about to say something to Guang beside him, when suddenly! The surrounding scenery suddenly fluctuated.

Just like a mirage, the surrounding scenery, whether it was the palace in the distance or the stable right in front of me, suddenly seemed to disappear and became extremely blurry.

Fortunately, everything recovered and stabilized in the end.

Seeing this scene, Kusanagi Godou exclaimed: "W-What is going on!?"

"Oh, it seems that someone has tampered with the spell that seals me here. Judging from the vision just now, the part outside should have been broken."

Unexpectedly, the one who answered Kusanagi Godou's question was Monkey God. He calmly explained the cause of the strange phenomenon, and it was hard to tell that he was the one who was sealed.

"What! Does that mean someone is attacking... Wait! Erica and Liliana are still outside. I have to get back as soon as possible."

As he was about to run, Kusanagi Godou suddenly remembered that the two sisters, Mariya, were with him. If he hurried back, it would not be a good idea to leave them here.

Kusanagi Godou was in a dilemma for a moment. Yuri, who was standing by, saw through his mind and suggested, "Godou-san, let's hurry back as soon as possible. Maybe our help is needed over there."

After hearing Yuri's suggestion, Kusanagi Godou made a decision instantly. He turned to the Monkey King and said quickly, "I'm sorry, I'm worried about the situation outside, so I'll take my leave now."

"I see. It's rare for someone to come visit, and it's really fun to talk to a God Slayer like you. It's a pity... But it doesn't matter. I have a feeling that we will meet again soon, so it's okay."

Unfortunately, the Monkey God said something meaningful, but because he was too worried about the situation outside, Kusanagi Godou didn't notice it at this time, and just replied hastily: "...I hope so."

After saying this, he did not hesitate any longer and took the two sisters from Wanli Valley back to the world above ground through the cave they had come from.

Looking at the disappearing figures of Kusanagi Godou and the other two, the Monkey God suddenly said, "Well, now that they have left, it is time for you, the son of man who came from the same hometown as me, to show up."

“Should we say that he is truly worthy of the title of Great Sage Equaling Heaven? Even though he is sealed, his insight from his Fiery Eyes and Golden Pupils remains as sharp as ever, truly admirable…”

As these words were spoken, a figure suddenly appeared beside the Monkey God.

Looking at the figure that appeared, the Monkey God raised his eyebrows and smiled amusedly.

Back to the other side. Unlike the unknown situation when they came here, because they already knew the details of this dark passage, and because of the urgency of time, Kusanagi Godou and the other two ran directly.

Of course, because the speed of the Wanli Valley sisters was not very fast, Kusanagi Godou simply carried them both on his back and continued the journey alone.

This method, which is not feasible for ordinary people, is actually faster than the three of them traveling together at the beginning because of the God Slayer's powerful physique.

In just a minute or two, the three of them successfully returned to the world above ground.

As soon as they came back, the three of them heard a huge noise.

"boom!!!"

There was a loud roar, and a cloud of dust like an explosion rose in the distance. Relying on the amazing eyesight of the God Slayer, Kusanagi Godou could even see some red wood among the rising objects. It was very similar to the shrine he saw on the road when he entered Toshogu Shrine before. If nothing unexpected happened, it should be a part of it.

Such a huge commotion made Kusanagi Godou even feel like a disobedient god or a godslayer was attacking.

“W-What the hell is going on!?”

It was obvious that Mariya Yuri was at a loss as to what to do at the moment, but Kusanagi Godou quickly calmed down and said, "No matter what the situation is now, let's meet up with the others first to understand the situation and then make plans for the next step, okay?"

"...Okay, Godou-san (brother)" x2
Yuri and Hikari's panic was dispelled by Kusanagi Godou's calming words, and they came back to their senses and gave quick replies.

Now that they had made the decision, they naturally took action immediately. The three of them began to seize the time and wanted to meet up with the others as soon as possible.

------------

Time goes back to when Kusanagi Godou and the other two had just entered the passage leading to where the God was.

After seeing the figures of Kusanagi Godou and others completely disappear from sight and there were no other problems with the ceremony, Kyuhozuka Mikihiko finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, although their family had very detailed records about the entire ceremony, it had not been started for more than a hundred years due to the lack of a slow-moving priestess. Even for him, as the eldest son of the Jiufazuka family, it was the first time.

What's more, there was a godslayer involved, so during the whole ceremony, although he appeared very calm on the surface, he was actually very nervous in his heart, fearing that something unexpected would happen.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly in the end and there were no accidents during the entire ceremony.

Now that the ceremony is over, what follows is waiting for the outcome of the conversation between Wang and the Lord of God. I wonder what it will turn out like in the end?

While feeling relieved, Kuhozuka Mikihiko began to worry about the outcome of the conversation. After all, this was related to whether their Kuhozuka family could complete their mission again, so he was naturally very concerned about it.

Just when Kuhozuka Mikiya was worried, suddenly!

"boom!!!"

A huge roar resounded through the sky, even causing him to suffer tinnitus.

“…What’s going on!?”

It took a long time for Kuhozuka Mikihiko to recover. He looked quickly and saw a huge mushroom cloud rising slowly, foreshadowing the chaos to come.
