Reasoning, and then being blasted by the neighboring idol

"Ah! Failed!"

Chouno Ayase sighed: "I no longer have the ability to stop time..."

"Actually, there is." Miura Gensuke told what had just happened.

"Wait, even I paused myself, so what's the use of this ability? Am I being punished by God?" Chouno Ayase was speechless.

"Maybe." Tsukimiya Sakura nodded. "Tsukuyomi-sama is also known as the God of Time. Moreover, in mythology, those who abuse their abilities never have a good end."

Chouno Ayase was stunned for a moment. "What should I do if I run into the Ghost of Time again when I leave the shrine? If I'm also suspended, then I won't be able to escape, right?"

Tsukimiya Sakurano pondered for a moment and said, "Since the Toki don't dare to appear in the shrine, then you should wear the shrine's amulet."

"Amulet?" Chouno Ayase blinked.

"It should be in the inner hall." Tsukimiya Sakurano walked into the inner hall.

After all, she is from the Yuegong family, and the Yuegong family is the god of this place, so there is nothing wrong with her entering the inner hall.

"Gensuke..." Chouno Ayase stood close to him, waiting for Tsukimiya Sakurano to come out.

Gensuke Miura was still thinking about the pause in time.

Why am I able to move this time?

Dieye must have paused time many times before without even realizing it.

Was it because he was so close to her this time? Only one step away...

So that's why you are immune to being suspended?

After waiting for three minutes, Gensuke Miura was a little worried about his sister, so he decided to go and check it out.

Fortunately, Sakurano came out the next second with a small blue cloth bag amulet.

Chouno Ayase quickly took the amulet and put it in her pocket.

But even so, she was still a little uneasy and looked behind her from time to time.

"Sakura." Miura Gensuke held her hand: "Did you find anything else?"

Tsukimiya Sakura nodded: "I found my mother's miko costume..."

"As for the Time Ghost..."

Tsukimiya Sakurano glanced at Chouno Ayase and said, "Since it belongs to the monster in ancient legends, it should have the characteristics of a monster."

"Like it would never appear in a shrine."

Tsukimiya Sakurano paused and said, "Correspondingly, at a certain moment, it might increase the probability of its appearance."

"The time of the devil?" Miura Gensuke nodded in agreement.

Modern urban legends, of course, do not have this universal characteristic. For example, Siren Head, a fictional monster that clearly incorporates modern technology, it is hard to imagine that it would be afraid of gods or something.

Because urban legends are often independent and unsystematic.

But monsters have a system.

The time of encountering demons is a common understanding about monsters. At dusk, the chance of encountering monsters will increase.

Miura Gensuke can handle ordinary monsters.

But this monster related to time is really too difficult to catch. Even if he can kill it with one punch, he will not be able to meet it.

Only traditional methods can be relied upon.

"I want to perform a ritual to exorcise you at dusk," Tsukimiya Sakurano explained to Chouno Ayase. "If I do that, the Tokiki might get angry and appear before us."

"I'll take care of it when the time comes." Miura Gensuke smiled.

"Even if something unexpected happens, we can run into the shrine." Tsukimiya Sakurano checked the time: "Let's start preparing now."

"But sister..." Miura Gensuke moved closer: "Isn't the exorcism ritual only performed by shrine maidens?"

Tsukimiya Sakurano blushed and pinched his waist: "I just asked for a fortune."

"It's Daji."

"That means the gods agree, and my sister can become a miko too."

"By the way." Tsukimiya Sakurano took his hand and walked towards the inner hall: "Can you shoot arrows?"

"Then I'm really good at shooting!" Miura Gensuke stopped and said, "Is it okay for me to go into the inner hall?"

Tsukimiya Sakurano lowered her head shyly: "You are now my sister's husband...which means you are the head of the Tsukimiya family..."

"That is, the Divine Lord..."

"Sister wife, that means... I am Tsukimiya Gensuke now?"

Hearing his name, Tsukimiya Sakurano blushed even more and hugged his arm coquettishly: "Brother, don't you agree? My father also changed his surname..."

Miura Gensuke just felt a little strange.

Why do I have to change my surname when I marry the eldest daughter...

I have to change my surname if I marry my sister...

I don't need to change my last name when I marry Xiao Mio, right?

"I do, sister..."

"Well, brother, you must continue to listen to your sister."

Chapter 144 Kagura [5K]

At dusk, the afterglow of the setting sun falls on the quiet mountains.

Miura Gensuke and Tsukimiya Sakurano were sitting on a round stone, while Chouno Ayase was standing in the middle of the pool, a little nervous, holding a purification kushi (a wooden stick with a piece of paper tied to it, which can be used to exorcise evil spirits) in her hand, and praying constantly.

"Sister." In this quiet and tense atmosphere, Miura Gensuke tilted his head and looked at his sister's beautiful profile.

Quiet, gentle, and reassuring.

"Why are you so different than you are in bed?"

"because……"

After realizing what question this bastard brother asked, Tsukimiya Sakurano glared at him with her beautiful eyes, "Sister just wants you to be happy... for the first time..."

She pinched Miura Gensuke's nose and asked shyly, "Do you understand? I'm actually very shy."

Miura Gensuke smiled and nodded. He knew that his sister had borrowed the lines from various literary works. "Sister, although I'm very satisfied, I feel that the process is a bit too formulaic..."

Tsukimiya Sakurano blushed and punched him in the chest: "This kind of thing is like solving a problem. Of course I have to use a formula for the first time. And this is the theoretically optimal formula I summarized using Ai."

"Sister will gradually use it flexibly in the future..."

Miura Gensuke hugged her gently and rubbed her sister's smooth cheek: "Are you satisfied with me, sister?"

Tsukimiya Sakurano looked forward with blushing cheeks.

The small circular pond with a mirror-like surface was reflecting the golden light, and it was surrounded by blooming cherry trees, and the pale pink petals gently fell in the breeze.

"Not at all..."

"Huh? Why?" Miura Gensuke was sweating profusely.

After doing that kind of thing, the receipt I received was an unsatisfactory one.

It simply crushed his dignity.

"My brother is not gentle at all..." Tsukimiya Sakurano held his hand aggrievedly.

"It still hurts to walk now..."

Just as Gensuke Miura was about to explain, he saw Nana Tsukima running over.

"It's already washed!"

Nana Tsukima smiled as she handed the washed and dried shrine maiden costume to Sakurano Tsukimiya, then put the old radio aside: "I didn't let anyone else find out."

"Besides, those elderly people are almost all at home watching TV. No one will come over."

"Thank you." Tsukimiya Sakurano held the shrine maiden costume in her arms, then walked up the steps to change clothes in the shrine.

Miura Gensuke was waiting there.

Nana Tsukima also sat next to Gensuke Miura, holding her chin and waiting.

Before the exorcism ceremony, Sakura has to perform a dance, also known as Kagura, to strengthen her divine power.

Miura Gensuke didn't know much about the shrine maidens.

I can only listen to my sister.

"Miura-san." Tsukima Nana suddenly tilted her head curiously: "Are you going to change your name to Tsukimiya Gensuke from now on?"

"Well...that's about right..." Miura Gensuke nodded with a smile.

"I think Tsukimiya Gensuke sounds nice." Tsukima Nana smiled and lowered her head, looking at her clogs. "When I graduate from high school and go to Tokyo, can you teach me how to live in a big city?"

"Actually, I'm a little scared... There are too many people in Tokyo..."

"There are many more than in our village..."

"I know everyone in the village, but I don't know anyone in Tokyo..."

Hearing the girl's timid tone, Miura Gensuke patted her back hard, which scared Nana.

"Of course, we are friends, and you don't have to wait until you graduate from college. You can come to Tokyo during the holidays and I will take you around." Miura Gensuke said with a smile.

"Yeah." Nana also laughed happily.

"Nana, how are your grades?" Miura Gensuke picked up a flower petal from the ground and rubbed it gently with his fingertips. "To get into university in Tokyo, you need very good grades."

"What university does Sister Yuegong go to?" Nana was a little curious.

"The University of Tokyo."

"I want to go to the University of Tokyo too!"

"Then we'll wait for you."

"Ah! Sister Yuegong!" Nana covered her mouth in surprise.
