She stared at the figure in the main hall, dressed in an oddly fitting shrine maiden outfit resembling a cosplay, with pink-dyed hair; it was probably a girl…

Inaba Touka clung fearfully to her sister's clothes.

"Oh~ little sister, you're saying foxes are all stingy?" A charming yet innocent voice came through, with a hint of cunning in its tone.

Ta-da!

Accompanied by the crisp sound of wooden clogs hitting the ground, a figure slowly emerged. She had long pink hair, wore an unconventional shrine maiden outfit that exposed her armpits, and her long, white legs were faintly visible through the slits of the outfit. There was still some confusion and fear in the depths of her purple eyes, and a pair of pink fox ears stood naturally on either side of her head.

Crystal ornaments hang from the fox's ears, creating a unique visual impact by blending innocence and allure.

Chitose Inaba and Touka Inaba stared in disbelief at the 'bad guy' who came out of the shrine, their mouths agape.

Fox, the fox god?

Yae no Miko looked at the two little girls who were stunned, and then at the unfamiliar surroundings. The fox was completely distraught, and the lines of her lips turned down.

Where is she?

She remembered that just a moment ago she was walking in Narukami Shrine, reading a light novel and eating fried tofu, when a black hole appeared beneath her and she was sucked in before she could even react.

She tried to struggle and resist, but to no avail; she was terrified.

She was a member of Narukami's family, possessing the power bestowed upon her by Narukami, and even had divine knowledge, yet she had no ability to resist.

Only a god could do something like that; she must have been captured by an unknown god.

A light appeared in the darkness, and she struggled to emerge. Once out, she found herself in an unfamiliar place, having accidentally stumbled into a shrine and knocked down some leaves in the process.

She had just recovered from her shock when two little girls appeared behind her; they seemed to be the shrine maidens of this shrine.

After regaining her senses, Inaba Chitose looked at the yokai lady in front of her, trembling, and asked in a trembling voice, "You, you are... the fox god?"

Please, please, please, please don't let it be a man-eating monster...

Yae no Miko also came to her senses and looked at the two trembling little girls in front of her. In the past, she would have definitely scared them, but now she was in no mood. She needed to figure out where she was first. She couldn't sense any elemental power.

Yae no Miko glanced at the fox-shaped stone pillar at the entrance of the torii gate and said, "Is this a shrine dedicated to foxes? Fox god... I never thought that after serving the gods for five hundred years, I would one day be called a fox god myself."

"Little sister, don't be afraid. I am a familiar of Narukami and I don't eat people. I came here by accident. I apologize for making a little mess of this shrine."

"It's alright, it's alright," Inaba Chitose quickly said, a huge weight lifted from her heart. It really was the fox god. At the same time, the fear and paleness on her face turned into an excited blush.

She had always believed in the existence of the fox god, and she never expected that the fox god would actually appear in the shrine.

The fox god is also a servant of Narukami, the Takamaga no Masami Takemikazuchi!

In Shintoism, all things possess spirits and are considered deities, but only the High Heaven God is considered a supreme deity; the other deities are considered monsters that receive offerings from humans.

“I’ve just arrived here and don’t know anything about this place. Little sister, can you tell me where this is and which god rules it?” Yae no Miko said. “Of course, I will give you a reward and grant you a small wish.”

"Fox God, have you been asleep for too long and are only now awakening?" Inaba Chitose, who was originally afraid, was not only no longer afraid, but also very bold. As a family of shrine maidens who have served the fox god for generations, how could she be afraid of the god she worships?

"..." Yae no Miko's pale purple eyes flickered brightly, and her fox ears twitched: "Indeed, she has been asleep for a long time and knows nothing about the current situation."

"So, from which era should we begin?" Inaba Chitose asked, blinking.

"Sigh!" Yae no Miko rubbed her forehead. How would she know which era to start from? There was no elemental power here, and as a divine servant, she couldn't sense the existence of her own god.

It is important to know that even if people are far apart in Teyvat, their family members can still sense the presence of their gods.

"How about I show you my history textbook?" Inaba Chitose asked softly.

“History, huh? Fine.” Yae nods.

"Please rest here. Orange Fragrance, please get some clean cotton shoes for the Fox God."

As Inaba Chitose spoke, she quickly opened the door to the shrine where the shrine maidens lived, then took off her shoes and ran into her room.

"Yes, sister." Inaba Touka hurriedly took out the new cotton shoes that she had never worn, knelt down in the entrance hall, and put the shoes down: "Please use them, Fox God."

Inaba Touka raised her head, her eyes blinking as she looked at Yae no Miko.

The fox spirit has come to the shrine! From now on, she and her sister will be true shrine maidens protected by the gods!

Yae no Miko changed out of her wooden clogs and put on cotton shoes, saying, "Although I am happy to be called the Fox God, my name is Yae no Miko. I was originally a shrine maiden who served Narukami. You can call me Lord Yae no Miko or Lord Mikoto."

“Yes, Lord Yaehime,” Inaba Touka called out, her face flushed.

"What an adorable little one." Yae no Miko looked at the little girl in front of her, who was so obedient, and took out a red cloth amulet from her sleeve and handed it to her: "Here you go. If you encounter any danger, take it out and maybe the danger will be gone."

"Thank you, Yae no Naka!" Inaba Touka said excitedly.

Yae no Miko entered the main hall, where there were chairs, suggesting that the shrine had abandoned the kneeling posture.

Inaba Chitose came out carrying a stack of books and placed them on the table: "Fox God, these are the world history and Japanese history textbooks for junior high and high school."

Yae no Miko looked at the stack of books, which was as tall as her forearm, with some surprise: "Huh? So many!" Her expression turned a little unpleasant. She only liked reading light novels, and these kinds of books, especially such thick ones, would take her forever to finish.

"I can only look." Yae no Miko gritted her teeth, picked up a book, and opened it. What?! What?! What is this?! I can't understand a single word!

The two women and the fox spirit remained completely oblivious to Luo Sheng sitting right across from them, as if he didn't exist.

Luo Sheng looked at Yae no Miko, who was biting her lip and painfully studying her history textbook, and pondered for a moment: "Fox God... In this country where everything is animistic, gaining faith and obtaining a divine name is too easy. It's just that the rank isn't that high, but it can still be considered a god, the weakest kind of god."

They are roughly the weak Daedric Lords of Teyvat, who were easily killed by the Seven Rulers of the Mortal Realm, with the 'Mushroom God' as a representative figure.

Chapter 102: Investigating Teyvat and Capturing the First Thor

"But... what are these threads?"

As Luo Sheng looked at Yae no Miko, who was silently staring at the world map in the history book, he saw faint threads emerging from Yae no Miko's body and heading towards the 'dimensional passage' leading to the world of Genshin Impact.

However, these threads are too slow. Before they can even enter the dimensional channel, the channel has already closed. Even if they manage to enter the dimensional channel by chance, their journey will be interrupted once the channel closes.

Los Saint immediately realized that this was something unusual; anything he encountered for the first time was always unusual.

Reach out and gather this faint, mysterious thread onto your fingertips, instantly understanding its true nature.

This is a kind of 'connection,' something like cause and effect, or fate.

Because Earth is now somewhat similar to Teyvat, things that share a common origin between the two worlds may become connected.

This is something that only the origin of the world can perceive; even the principles of Teyvat cannot detect this change.

The more similarities two worlds have, the stronger this subtle connection will be, much like two magnets that attract each other more strongly the closer they are.

"Has Earth already become similar to the world of Genshin Impact?" Luo Sheng looked at the silk threads swirling around his fingertips.

It seems that there are indeed considerable similarities. The World Tree, ley lines, and elemental forces—the things that form the foundation of the world—are not just similar, they are identical.

"This attraction... does it mean that I can use this attraction to specifically explore the world of Genshin Impact?" After pondering for a moment, Luo Sheng nodded. It was indeed necessary to give it a try.

"..." Yae no Miko put down the book in her hand with a low mood. The whole fox looked like a wilted cabbage. The fox ears that were already drooping on both sides of her head were now listless.

"How could this be?" Yae no Miko's purple eyes were empty and blank.

Although she couldn't read the words in the books, she could still understand the pictures; none of the pictures contained any elements she was familiar with.

Until I saw the map, I knew it was a map without anyone pointing it out; it was a completely unfamiliar map.

This is no longer Inazuma, and it's not even Teyvat anymore.

She inexplicably found herself in a strange world.

“What should I do…” Yae no Miko’s empty eyes regained some of their light as she looked down at her beautiful fingers.

This strange world has no elemental power. The elemental power in her body consumes elemental power to maintain her body. The consumption of this elemental power is small, but it is constantly being consumed without being replenished, and there will eventually be a day when it runs out.

At that time, she won't even be able to maintain this appearance and transform back into a fox.

"What's wrong, Fox God?" Inaba Chitose asked softly, looking at the Fox God who was silent and had an empty gaze. Inaba Touka blinked, her hands clutching the amulet.

Is the fox god heartbroken because he realized that too much time has passed and all the people he knew are gone? This kind of plot often appears in light novels I borrowed from my deskmate.

Yae no Miko snapped out of her reverie and looked at the two young shrine maidens, asking, "Little sisters, are there gods in this country? Or rather, are there beings with great power?"

Inaba Chitose nodded like a chick pecking at rice, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Yae no Miko: "Of course there are gods! Aren't you, Fox God? You can just call me Chitose."

Yae no Miko said, "Apart from me."

Inaba Chitose shook her head: "Um, apart from you, I haven't heard of any other deity descending upon Japan, nor have I heard of any powerful sorcerers or Onmyoji."

"I see." Yae no Miko's heart sank to the bottom.

“But other countries have them too. For example, there are angels descending to earth and miracles from God in Britain. I also recently heard from a classmate that several gods have appeared in the neighboring Xia Kingdom.” Inaba Chitose quickly took out her phone: “I even have a video, but I don’t know if the video is real.”

"Please look, Lord Fox God."

Yae no Miko blinked at the thin cube handed to her, her eyes filled with confusion, then surprise.

This tiny box is actually a phonograph machine.

"this!"

Yae no Miko opened her mouth as she watched the video playing on her phone.

The video is footage taken by civilians during the British Revolution. Such videos are widely circulated on the internet, and even Japan, which is closed off from the world, cannot completely control them.

The existence of gods and angels has long been a consensus among the Japanese, but they are simply too far removed from their lives.

"This is indeed the power of a god, and a very powerful one at that." Yae no Miko said in shock as she watched the video. As a servant of a god, she knew very well how powerful her god was. Just by looking at the video, she knew that this god was stronger than her own.

"Fox God, there's also this." Inaba Chitose pressed play to move on to the next video, and a new video began playing.

This time, we're playing a video from two days ago showing the capital of the Xia Kingdom, Shu.

This video was filmed on the edge of the city, showing a huge void in the abyss, with a continuous stream of abyssal energy gushing down and enveloping the entire city.

A divine light wall enveloped the entire city, purifying the energy of the abyss. Then, trees shot into the sky in an endless stream, and the sky was covered by a blue curtain of water.

"Abyss invasion!" Yae no Miko held her breath. This world was also being invaded by the Abyss.

However, the gods of this world are extremely powerful, capable of purifying even such terrifying abyssal energy. Currently, no god in Teyvat can purify the abyss so easily; even their own gods can only seal it away.

'Since I've come this far, perhaps the gods of this world can send me back?' Yae no Miko pondered subconsciously, then dejectedly replied, 'Forget about how to find the gods, even if I did, what right would those high and mighty gods have to send me back?'

Just because she's a follower of a Teyvat god? She doesn't think her status as a follower of a god is any bargaining chip for the gods of this world; her own god's face can't be sold in another world.

Leaving aside this world, even in the world of Teyvat, finding a god isn't easy; why would they want to see you?

For now, we can only settle down and think of a solution. We've already fallen to this state, panicking won't help.

Seeing the two little shrine maidens looking at her expectantly, Yae no Miko said, "Little sisters, I'll be staying at your house for a while. Of course, I'll give you gifts."

Inaba Chitose quickly said, "This is originally the shrine of the Fox God. We have no problem with whatever the Fox God does."
