Tokyo: Starting with the Shrine Maiden

Accompanied by a melodious female voice, an exceptionally beautiful white fox appeared.

Its fur seemed to have a flow of psychic energy, and it looked shiny.

"It's a feather gauze."

Jinguji Fuyumi explained, "The leader of the white foxes of Aokiyama, fourth rank. Because he cultivates the Divine Servant Technique, he cannot transform into human form."

Divine Servants? Unable to take human form?

Haruhiko raised an eyebrow.

According to the legends of this world, a white fox must cultivate for a thousand years to become a celestial fox.

However, this cultivation can actually be divided into two types.

One type went to meet the divine messenger.

One type is the normal monster.

The white foxes of Qingwei Mountain clearly aim to become messengers of the gods.

Under normal circumstances, the messengers of Inari God do not take human form.

Unless permitted by the gods, or to become a celestial fox and reach the fifth rank.

However, now that the Inari god has disappeared, the only solution is the latter.

As Haruhiko examined it, Hasa also looked at him with considerable curiosity.

It suddenly sniffed, its eyes lit up, and asked, "Who are you?"

Haruhiko had seen this look in his eyes several times before.

He couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

He's really no good at things that can't take human form.

"Haruhiko."

Haruhiko snapped out of his daze and said.

"It is you."

Yu Sha said gently, "I've met you once before, when you first came to Inari Shrine."

Newly arrived?

That was ten years ago.

But Haruhiko had no recollection of it.

"That's strange, you didn't smell this good before."

Yu Sha walked to his feet, nuzzled his leg with her head, and said, "It's really nice now."

"..."

Haruhiko was speechless.

He increasingly felt like Tang Sanzang.

Everyone wants a bite.

"camlet."

Jinguji Fuyumi said calmly, "He is not yours."

Chapter 191 What is Liking?

Yu Sha was somewhat surprised upon hearing this.

In its mind, Jinguji Fuyumi wouldn't pay much attention to anyone or anything.

But it seems to be different for Haruhiko.

"I'm sorry, Master Dongyu."

Yu Sha stepped back, creating some distance between them.

Haruhiko is certainly tempting, but he is aware of the situation.

Offending Jinguji Fuyumi for the sake of humanity would be a foolish act.

In an era when the Inari god could not respond, a celestial fox was undoubtedly of great importance to their race.

Because it can point them in the right direction for cultivation, so as not to cut off their path forward.

Jinguji Fuyumi remained indifferent, showing little reaction.

She actually knew that Yu Sha had misunderstood something.

And it was a very serious misunderstanding.

Given Haruhiko's constitution, Yusa must think that she wants to possess it all by herself.

But she did not explain.

"Lord Fuyu, is there anything I can do for you today?"

Seeing her expression, Yu Sha became even more certain of her guess.

It couldn't help but feel a sense of relief, thankfully it hadn't gone too far in touching or assaulting them.

Jinguji Fuyumi looked at Haruhiko with her golden eyes.

She came to see Yu Sha because of his suggestion, so she didn't know what his purpose was.

Haruhiko twitched the corner of his mouth.

His initial idea was to start with friendship.

Let Jinguji Fuyu experience it.

But he has now discovered that her definition of friendship is flawed.

The relationship between Yu Sha and I can hardly be described as friendship; it's more like that of a superior and subordinate.

The only true friend I'd count is Yukihime.

After she recovered, she did not show any fear of Jinguji Fuyumi.

But the feather gauze is quite obvious.

"Nothing."

Haruhiko thought for a moment and said, "Aunt Fuyu said there is a group of white foxes in Qingwei Mountain, and I am a little curious."

Aunt Dongyu?

Feathered Fox's eyes darted around.

Are you still playing this kind of game?

"Anything you want to know, I can tell you."

As Yu Sha spoke, she wagged her fluffy tail.

Haruhiko really wanted to ask, "Is the tail the fox's most sensitive spot?"

But this problem is easy to be attacked.

But apart from that, there doesn't seem to be anything else I want to know.

"Now that we've lost contact with the gods, won't it affect your practice of serving the gods?"

After pondering for a moment, Haruhiko asked.

"It will have an impact, but not a particularly large one."

Yu Sha glanced at Jinguji Fuyumi and said, "It's called a divine service technique, but in reality, it has nothing to do with the gods anymore."

Haruhiko suddenly thought of the theologians, a branch of the priests.

It's very similar to the situation with the white fox.

Many shrines today have modified the rituals of serving the gods, enabling them to function normally without relying on deities.

Haruhiko was curious: what would happen if the gods returned?

He's a player, so he's pretty familiar with the game's mechanics; eventually, quite a few gods will appear.

"That's my question."

Haruhiko noticed that Jinguji Fuyumi was still staring at him, so he shook his head and said.

"My lords, if you have time, please stay for dinner."

Yu Sha broke the silence and made a suggestion.

Having noticed Jinguji Fuyumi's unusual attitude towards Haruhiko, it simply started addressing him as "sir."

Although it is the fourth order.

"Need not."
