And the city's still bright neon lights and constant flow of traffic.
Hiyori Iki recalled Kujo Toru's instructions again, and after confirming that nothing was missing, she looked at the young man in front of her who was showing a hint of sadness.
"Uh, this... Your Excellency? May I ask your name?"
Hiyori Iki was unsure of the other party's identity.
However, judging from the way Kujo Toru interacted with him, and the fact that he also had a fragrance, he must also be a deity.
"Just call me Yato."
Yato shook his head and looked at Hiyori Iki.
How pitiful. She lost the god she worshipped so soon after becoming a priestess. It's best not to tell her the truth.
He sighed deeply, then jumped straight off the rooftop, leaving only one sentence for the bewildered Iki Hiyori:
"Since you are the priestess of that war god, if you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can call my name and I will come to help you."
Volume 1: Chapter 100 A World Without Gods
"Compared to the world of Noragami, the boundary lines of this world are truly chaotic."
Kujo Toru slowly opened his eyes and leaned against the headboard.
The room was pitch black.
It was still dark.
I don't usually notice it.
However, this feeling becomes particularly pronounced after experiencing the trials and tribulations of the world.
Even if the faith in the gods is weak, the gods of Takamagahara still exist.
The distinction between the eternal world and the present world remains clear.
Whether it's a monster or a vengeful spirit, as long as it doesn't encounter a calamity like the Time Transformation or the opening of the Wind Cave, it cannot affect the present world.
Of course, if a person in the present world accidentally glimpses the ordinary world, like Iki Hiyori, then that's another story.
However, in the real world, this separation is not much better than a blank sheet of paper.
Any vengeful spirit or monster that is powerful enough, or whose resentment and filth are strong enough, can blur the boundary between the mortal world and the present world.
Strangers can inexplicably find themselves in the mundane world while walking on the road.
Whether it was the three yakuza who kidnapped Yukinoshita Haruno, or the four guys who did the live-streamed exploration of Futauchi Mountain, they all stepped into the other side of the world without knowing anything about it.
"Would a world without gods become like this?"
Kujo Toru sighed softly.
It's quite puzzling that, despite spending so much time at the purification shrine, he had never seen the deity his family worshipped, except for the divine barrier surrounding the shrine.
As for the other shrines of righteous gods in Chiba City, not even a trace of supernatural power can be seen.
It has been completely transformed into a folk custom or tourist attraction.
The only thing I've ever seen related to gods is the protection of an unknown god that Yukino Yukinoshita receives.
It's practically a future version of the Noragami world.
He reached for his phone in the dark, then turned on the screen and glanced at the time.
It was four in the morning, only five hours after he entered the training world.
Has the flow of time in this world sped up?
Kujo Toru remembers very clearly that in Uesugi Erii's world, the flow of time was the same in both places.
However, this time the Noragami world is different.
From the moment he saw Yato at school during the day until the wind cave was closed at night, at least twelve hours had passed.
However, this is also a good thing, at least I don't have to worry about the subsequent training missions taking too long and affecting my normal life in the real world.
Put the phone aside.
Looking at Suzumoto Mayu, who had secretly slipped into his room at some point and was now fast asleep on her pillow, Kujo Toru shook his head.
She moved quietly, lifted the covers, and stepped out of the room.
I turned on the living room lights and poured myself a glass of water.
The cool liquid made me feel much more awake instantly.
As his spiritual power level increased, he became less and less dependent on sleep.
Once I level up a few more times, I'll probably be able to stay up all night without sleep.
The system panel has been opened.
The training mission has been completed, and I now have 11 free skill points, which meets the requirements for skill upgrade.
However, Kujo Toru was not in a hurry to level up his skills.
The two random branches he received during his last skill upgrade left a deep impression on him.
While it is indeed very useful, if possible, Toru Kujo would prefer to get something more useful randomly.
So he first looked at the silver treasure chest he had obtained, intending to open it and try his luck.
The odds are conserved; if you get a decent item like a Divine Contract from the Bronze Chest last time, then you're bound to get a bad one from the Silver Chest this time.
In this way, the branches you unlock by upgrading your skills will definitely contain good items.
Kujo Toru felt that his thinking was correct, no less than the brilliant idea of "an arrogant army will surely be defeated, a defeated army will surely be miserable, and a miserable army will surely be victorious".
[Open Silver Treasure Chest x1?]
Unboxing!
Congratulations! You have obtained the item "Fresh Persimmon".
A mass of crimson flesh appeared in Kujo Toru's hand.
A warm, moist sensation came from my hands.
Looking at its heart-like shape, it even seems to be beating faintly.
Holding it in my hand, I thought Hannibal was picking out ingredients.
Kujo Toru's lips curled into a deep frown.
You call this thing a fresh persimmon?
【Fresh Persimmon】: The pericardium of the white serpent god is as red as a persimmon. The god refers to the earth god, and the pericardium is the organ that houses the divine soul. Although it looks like a persimmon, the snake persimmon is the organ of the god that bears red fruit. Devouring the god would be extremely poisonous to the human body.
Two streams of light flew out from his body, and the Golden Crow and the Moon Rabbit appeared on his shoulders, eyeing the heart of the snake god that was called Fresh Persimmon.
If it weren't for Kujo Tetsu holding them both down, the guardian spirit would probably have already begun to launch a devastating attack on this thing.
However, their performance also proves that this product is genuine.
Because in the world of Noragami, even when facing Ebisu Kofuku, a god who once unleashed a full-force attack that caused the "Lost Thirty Years," Kincho was only slightly moved.
There wasn't such a strong reaction.
and.
The White Snake Goddess, fresh persimmons...
I vaguely remember Kujo Toru.
Where did you hear that?
I carefully searched through my memories.
In the end, he found something similar in a corner of his past life memories.
Isn't this the item dropped after you kill the giant white serpent that's like a mountain in the valley in Sekiro?
Moreover, it's a key element used in the Dragon's Homecoming ending.
Can silver treasure chests drop this kind of thing?
Kujo Toru looked at the snake god's heart in his hand, feeling that it was a little hot.
Could it be that the goods have already been shipped...?
As luck would have it, the snow-white bone sword that he had casually tossed onto the sofa suddenly began to tremble.
It seems they are craving this thing.
He twitched the corner of his mouth.
He simply grabbed a rag from the kitchen and threw it over the bone sword to cover it.
You still want more? Dream on!
Although he had become quite adept at using this thing as a sword during this time, he hadn't forgotten that it was a special reward he received when he kidnapped Uesugi Erii.
In essence, it is the remains of a great demon, similar in nature to the fresh persimmon in my hand.
Who knows if feeding these fresh persimmons to the remnant of the Holy Relic will cause that great demon to resurrect on the spot.
If he had the level 25 spiritual power of his avatar, then it wouldn't be impossible to do it, but for now, let's forget about it.
"When Erii comes to work next week, ask her if she knows anything about the Sacred Relic. As for this fresh persimmon... just throw it at me."
This main hall is located at the very center of the protective barrier of the Qingfu Grand Shrine, making it the safest place.
If he can't suppress them here, then he has no other means.
With that thought in mind, he pushed open the door and, using the starlight overhead, walked towards the main hall.
Then, place this item along with the Sesshoseki shards under the sword holder of the Sacred Sword.
He casually affixed a seal, then closed the palace door again and returned to the living room.
It's time to upgrade my skills.
-----------------
Volume 1: Chapter 101 Evil Must Be Killed
[Specialized Skill]: Kujo Seiden Purification Shinto Style (Intermediate 0/10) - This is a sword specialization (cannot be upgraded).
[Should I spend 10 skill points to upgrade to an advanced specialization skill?]
Yes.
[Specialized skill upgraded, remaining skill points: 1]
[Specialized Skill]: Purification Shinto Isshin-ryu (Advanced 0/30) - Specialization: This is the sword, Evil is slain (Cannot be upgraded)
Just like when I upgraded my skills for the first time, in addition to feeling that I had a deeper understanding of swordsmanship, a new icon was added after the specialization column.
【Evil is to be cut down】: Ghosts are evil, demons are evil, and humans are even more evil. If I say you are evil, then you are evil.
It was filled with the system's usual incomprehensible quality.
However, Kujo Toru had already understood the effect of this so-called "evil must be punished".
His expression was a bit strange.
A very subtle specialization.
It cannot be said that it is useless; rather, it is quite useful to some extent.
Just like the specializations "This is a Sword" and "Ritual".
The former ensures combat effectiveness even without weapons, while the latter has proven its worth in both using the "Natsu" skill and defeating the Black Tanuki.
However, it has absolutely no effect on improving his normal combat ability.
It can only serve to make up for shortcomings.
The same applies to the principle of "evil shall be punished".
The swordsmanship and divine arts he inherited were primarily for dealing with non-human beings. When facing living people, they lost their special effects and he could only rely on his own numerical strength to fly through the air.
With this specialization, one can even classify living people as demons and monsters according to their own will.
