Kyoto Shenyin Love Story

Chapter 76
From many levels, Kyoko Sugawara is a woman who is serious and scary.

At least Zongya didn't expect that after she knew about her attempt to hunt down the gods, she chose to help her in order to make an example of others.

To be precise, it is to allow Tsukiyomi-sama who has already died once to witness the tragic end of a disqualified god with his own eyes, so as to strengthen his determination to return to the shore and become a god again.

"How does Jingzi know that the target I want to hunt must be a disqualified god?"

"Because Soya-san is still only a human being, no amount of knowledge and experience can change your essence—your abilities are limited."

Kyoko looked at him, "And Soya-san doesn't seem like someone who would seek his own death. Therefore, Soya-san's hunting targets must be tiny gods who have been disqualified or are not worth mentioning at all."

Soya was surprised at the judgment she made between breaths, but Kyoko hadn't finished speaking.

"What's more, this matter is inseparable from the participation of Mr. Yuedu. I believe in his choice."

"..."

Soya glanced at Yuedu, and Kyoko seemed to see through his thoughts.

"In terms of human affairs, Tsukiyomi-sama has just arrived, and he has indeed been blinded by materialistic desires; but when it comes to gods, I believe there is no one more trustworthy than him."

"..."

This is just her own opinion, Soya really can't agree with Yueyue's unreliability after seeing it.

But Jingzi chose to stand by him now, so of course he would not refute anything.

"That's right." Soya helped Tsukuyomi who was on the ground up, "I also got the support of Tsukiyomi-sama, which strengthened my determination."

Monthly reading: "I..."

"you shut up."

"..."

"Then." Kyoko looked at him, "Which god is Soya-san planning to kill?"

"It's not one, it's eight."

As Soya spoke, he rethought his plan, "Kyoko should have heard of the names of the Eight Thunder Gods from the Underworld."

"..."

Eight Thunder Gods...

This is not the kind of unknown little god that Jingzi had expected, she was a little shaken.

She firmly believes in the myth that "800 million gods live on Gaotianyuan", especially after Tsukuyomi appeared in the world; but with so many gods, there will always be some parts that are not virtuous or capable, and she thinks Soya target is one of them.

"Of course..."Ancient Matters" also has the names of the Eight Thunder Gods."

Jingzi paused, "However, this is the first time I've heard that they also wandered into the world."

"I just found out not too long ago."

"Really. Soya-san, what is the purpose of hunting them down?"

"I want Huang Quan to return to its most primitive appearance."

Asagiri is weak, Tsukiyomi is unreliable, and Soya can't stand alone, so he decides to make Miko Kyoko his companion and helper.And she needs a legitimate reason to act, and once she agrees, she will not give up easily, so she explained it to her patiently.

In addition to concealing his relationship with Izanami, and her guidance behind the scenes, Soya told Kyoko almost everything he could think of.

"..."

She was silent for a long time after hearing this, and then stared at him as if she had just met Soya.

"Songya-san... before this, I thought that Soya-san was selfish and indifferent, perfunctory to others, passive and evasive, and would only act when there was no way to escape..."

"... Can you say this directly in front of me?"

"However, I now know the heavy burden on Soya-san. What Soya-san does is for the sake of the whole world."

"..."

Soya was dumbfounded.

But what he wanted was help on the road to hunting gods, not a believer, and he immediately refuted her words that raised her too much.

"No, benefiting the whole world is just an objective result by the way. Subjectively, what I want is my own stable future. I am the kind of person Jingzi thinks is selfish and indifferent, passive and evasive, and will not take action unless it is absolutely necessary."

Kyoko nodded, "I know."

"..."

"But—" she continued, "this is just Soya-san's self-righteous idea."

"what?"

Kyoko moved in front of Soya, said "Excuse me", and then took out the amulet hanging around his neck.

The spiritual sense was cut off in an instant, and she got used to it before continuing.

"With this amulet, Soya-san can live in peace even if he doesn't do anything, can't he?"

"This is the amulet left by Grandma Kirino." Soya said, "One day, I have to give it back to her..."

"is it?"

Kyoko looked into his eyes, "Songya, who is 'selfish and indifferent', is unwilling to give Tongye a talisman that is more of a commemorative meaning even if he is faced with many difficulties in finding and killing the Eight Thunder Gods in the vast world. Do you keep it for yourself?"

"..."

Soya opened his mouth and fell completely silent.

"The misfortunes encountered in the past made Soya-san tired of exile, and subconsciously produced the idea of ​​saving the whole world. Soya-san did not escape with the amulet and joined the organization, which is the projection of this subconscious in reality."

He didn't speak, and Kyoko didn't know if he didn't listen, or if he acquiesced to what he said.

"All in all, the future that Soya-san chose is consistent with my goal and even the goals of the Psychic Organization."

She stretched out her hand, "I will be Soya's support on the way forward, and I will give everything for it."

"..."

Soya watched her for a moment, then took the hand.

"Please advise."

After discussing, Soya sent Kyoko back.

"I'll go back and make some preparations, see you later."

"I'll take you to the station."

"no need."

Kyoko stopped at the door and declined Soya's kindness, "Songya has more experience in dealing with spirit bodies than I do. Let's use this time to think about the actual actions in the future."

What we have to deal with this time is not an ordinary spirit body...

Soya smiled wryly, but nodded anyway.

Kyoko didn't say much, and turned to leave the old house of the Kirino family.

Walking in an alley with no one in front or behind, the moonlight was dim and hazy, and she could only hear her own footsteps.

"Subconscious..."

Jingzi stopped and looked back at the house not far away.

It is almost impossible to see anything in the dark, just like Soya has always given her the feeling:
Appearing in Kinki mysteriously, his past experience is full of mystery, he wears a mysterious amulet that suppresses his spiritual sense, and Asagiri Rin who appears beside him is also mysterious...

But this feeling suddenly dissipated a lot during the day - when she and him were sleeping opposite each other in the school's health room, she had a strange dream.

The content of the dream is Soya's past before she came to Kinki, and she is an irrelevant bystander.

A voice lingered in her ears, casually, but kept telling her all kinds of unbelievable things.And this is almost the same as what he told himself just now.

Therefore, in reality, she also came to the conclusion that the voice in the dream told her: Zong Gu, who escaped from the underworld, shouldered the mission of making the whole world free from the harassment of the underworld spirit body.

At the same time she's convincing Soya, who thinks she's selfish, to accept this, she seems to be convincing herself too.

She is unswerving in her decision to become the helper of Zongu Hunting God. Exorcising evil spirits and guarding the world are the eternal goals of her and the organization.But looking back, what is the source of this dream full of substantive content?
Could it be, as she said, subconscious?

But she didn't know about it before.

Before he knew it, Kyoko reached the station.

Boarding the deserted tram, there was only one young woman in this carriage, she found a corner seat and sat down.

"……well done."

Kyoko raised her head in deep thought, and the woman sat across from her at some point.

"What?" Kyoko asked.

The other party smiled, "What?"

"..."

Wasn't he talking to her?

"Feel sorry……"

Jingzi nodded to the beautiful woman in front of her, and then quickly glanced around, but did not see any communication tools such as mobile phones.

"It's nothing."
