I cultivate a deity in Tokyo

"I know, my sister is so nagging," Yu Chuan Ye Ye pouted unhappily.

"But look at this."

She then pushed the phone in front of her sister.

It was a hand-drawn picture.

Someone drew a picture of the mountain god they saw on Mount Takao.

Yuukawa Yaya pointed at the picture, her voice filled with righteous indignation.

"This doesn't even capture a tenth of the handsomeness of Priest Shiraki!"

"Is he a hater of Priest Shiraki?"

Yuukawa Arashi looked at her angry younger sister with amusement and reached out to stroke her hair.

Is this something to get so angry about?

"Don't you think so, sister?" Yuukawa Yaya asked back.

"Huh?" Yu Chuanlan was taken aback.

"Don't think, just speak!"

“Um, Shiraki-kun really does need to be a little more handsome,” Hanekawa Arashi said, her fair neck slightly flushed.

"That's exactly what I meant!" Yuukawa Yaya's face lit up with a smile.

But as if he had thought of something, he said with some dissatisfaction.

"But, Priest Shiraki is very stingy; he still won't tell me any clues about the monster."

Yu Chuanlan gently tapped her younger sister's forehead, leaving a small red mark.

"That's for your safety. If all the monsters attacked like they did on Mount Takao, don't you know how dangerous you would be?"

"Shiraki-kun, it was actually to protect you that I chose to bear these dangers alone."

Yuukawa rubbed her forehead every night.

"Even if Priest Shiraki has high magical power, shouldn't he need someone to help him?"

"Sister, you don't understand, monsters are extremely terrifying—"

Suddenly, Hanekawa Arashi's phone, which was placed beside her pillow, rang twice.

She took it immediately.

"Who is it?" Yuukawa Yaya curiously peeked out.

"It was a message from Priest Shiraki, asking if I had time."

He said he had just wiped out a batch of yokai (supernatural beings) in Tokyo and wanted me to help him exorcise them.

"Huh? Has Priest Shiraki attacked a monster again?" Hanekawa Yaya sat up straight in surprise.

She immediately realized what was happening and her brows furrowed slightly.

"Wait, why is Priest Shiraki only asking about my sister?"

"I can do it too!"

"It's very simple."

Yuukawa Arashi said naturally.

"Because I'm older than you."

Upon hearing this, Yuukawa Yaya was taken aback.

She glanced defiantly at her sister's chest.

I'm so angry!

Chapter Ninety-One: The Joint Conference of the Divine Temples

October 31st, Monday.

The temperature is cold.

The weather is getting cooler as autumn draws to a close.

The morning air on Pingxiong Mountain was already covered with a thin layer of frost.

Although he thought about it until late last night, Shiraki Shun still got up very early today.

The reason I got up early was to ask for leave from school.

According to the arrangements sent by Inspector Yamato.

Today's meeting started at 9:00 a.m. and is expected to last until 4:00 p.m.

Obviously, there's no time to go to school anymore.

However, the police were very considerate and had specifically instructed the school in advance to take care of Bai Mujun.

Although the school was very unhappy.

The fact that Shiraki Shun is not coming to school is a great loss to the school in every sense.

The most obvious result is a decline in the quality of students' listening comprehension.

However, we cannot go against the authorities.

Left with no other choice, they had to let them pass.

After receiving permission from his teacher, Shiraki Shun began preparing to attend the meeting.

He looked at the information sent by Inspector Yamato.

The number of shrines and temples attending this meeting reached sixty.

Although shrines or temples hold exchange meetings every year to communicate about Shinto or Buddhism.

But nothing has ever reached this scale before.

Of course, the total number of shrines and temples in Tokyo is far greater than this number.

However, due to the special nature of this meeting, ordinary shrines and temples are not eligible to attend.

The attendance list included Raimeiji Temple, to which Arashi Hanekawa belongs, and Kanda Shrine, to which Yaya Hanekawa belongs.

However, the Tenji Shrine, to which Shiraki Shun belongs, does not currently possess this qualification.

Therefore, Shiraki Shun's identity at the event was not that of a priest of Tenji Shrine.

Instead, he was a special consultant invited by the police.

Regardless of one's status, the main thing is to have the opportunity to interact with ancient shrines and temples in Tokyo.

Moreover, they reimburse round-trip travel expenses and provide lunch.

Where else can you find such a good deal?

After greeting the gods and Reina Kokonoe, Shiraki Shun left the shrine.

We arrived at the foot of a uniquely designed building in Shibuya Ward.

This is where the meeting was held.

Many people dressed in monks' robes or hunting clothes were walking inside while chatting.

"Priest Shiraki!"

Suddenly, a shout tinged with anger rang out from inside the hall.

Red straw sandals fluttered up and down as Hanekawa Yaya, dressed in a shrine maiden's outfit and with her beautiful long hair tied up with white sandalwood, rushed up to him.

However, her eyebrows were slightly furrowed, giving her the appearance of an angry shrine maiden.

"Good morning, Miko Hanekawa." Shiraki Shun greeted Hanekawa Yaya with a smile.

That gentle and handsome smile made Yuukawa Yaya's mind go blank, and most of her resentment disappeared instantly. She subconsciously bowed in return.

"Good morning, Priest Shiraki."

"No, no! That's not why I'm waiting for you here!"

"Seriously, don't interrupt me!"

"Huh? Is the shrine maiden Hanekawa waiting for me?" Shiraki Shun asked, somewhat surprised.

“Yes.” Yuukawa Yaya looked at Shiraki Shun with a pitiful little look in her eyes.

"Priest Shiraki, why did you only discuss your exorcism with my sister and not with me?"

Could it be...?

Does Priest Shiraki really like big things?

But she just couldn't bring herself to ask that question.

Yuukawa Yaya felt increasingly stifled, her little mouth puffing up like a sparrow hiding its food.

Looking at Yuukawa Yaya's appearance, Shiraki Shun suddenly realized.

"So even the Shrine Maiden Hanekawa needs exorcism points?"

"What does this have to do with exorcism points?" Yuukawa Yaya blinked her big, round eyes, looking puzzled.

"That's right. Yu Chuan once told me that she desperately needed exorcism points, so I contacted her to exchange them for cash," Shiraki Jun explained.

"If the Miko Hanekawa also needs exorcism points, then let's do it together."

"After all, the harvest this time was quite large, and Hanekawa-san alone might not be able to handle it."

Yes.

Based on the experience from last time.

If we manage to exorcise all four hundred-plus ghosts this time, we'll probably generate hundreds of millions of exorcism points.

Although Yuukawa Arashi did transfer the money the previous two times, it's hard to say whether she can afford the exorcism fee of over 100 million this time.

If Yuukawa Yaya needs some, then it wouldn't hurt to share some with her.

"So that's how it is! I knew it!" Upon hearing this, Yuukawa Yaya's frustration dissipated by eighty percent, and a smile appeared in her crescent-shaped eyes.
