Foreigner's Journey

Well, the figure in the Tsuruga camouflage pattern is indeed very predictable. I didn't expect that the priestess costume can be hidden so well... But I have no intention of this at all!

Look at this guy kneeling on the ground, his heartbeat almost catches up with the king's engine, he must be thinking wildly, hey!

After thinking about it, Heather decided to start a new topic first: "As a bet, the thousand swords are mine now, right?"

"Yes, whether it's Qiandao Xiao or the Santu Shrine, or me and the thousand black witches, they are all yours now."

Tsuruga camouflage did not look up, knelt down on the ground in the posture of Dogezaza, and said respectfully.

She has no doubts about Heather's [Susano's] identity. Shrines, priests and priestesses are things that please the gods. Now that the true god has come, she can naturally bring everything under her command.

Heather couldn't understand the Japanese's habit of sitting down at every turn, so she shook the bottle impatiently:

"You don't have to kneel down, come over and pour wine for me."

"Yes, thank you for your grace."

Tsuruga got up, ignored the baggy clothes on his body and fell to the ground, bowed shyly and walked quickly to Heather's side, knelt and poured wine for Heather.

It's really troublesome, if I knew it earlier, I would have changed the plan. It seems that the appearance of a [True God] in this era is too powerful for the shrine maiden.

Heather pretended to be impatient: "As a priestess, but her clothes are not in order, hurry up and change into clean clothes before coming back."

"I was rude, please forgive me."

The Tsuruga camouflage put down the wine bottle and touched the ground with his forehead, and then walked quickly to the inside of the hall while clutching his whole body in a 'princess costume' that was not as thick as a sock.Not long after, she changed into the maiden costume she usually wears, and knelt next to Heather again to pour wine for her, with a respectful attitude.

After drinking for a while, Heather put down her glass and looked at Tsuruga Camouflage: "Don't have any psychological pressure, just continue to think of me as a wandering ronin [Sekiro], understand?"

"Yes." Tsuruga camouflaged bowed his head respectfully.

Okay, it's the same as not saying it.Heather stroked the hair in front of her forehead, and pulled it back:

"In the final analysis, the heart disease between you and these thousand black witches lies in the [Shogunate]. As long as the [Shogunate] disappears, the wanted and arrested articles of the black witches will be automatically cancelled, and you can naturally continue to live in these three ways. In the shrine. Even if individual forces want to take revenge on these black witches, you can easily defeat them with your strength. Don't worry, I will fulfill the agreement."

Although the thousand swords are now owned by Heather, Heather is still ready to fulfill the agreement with the Tsuruga camouflage.In the original novel, she died at the hands of the protagonists Qihua and Jiuer. The thousand swords were taken away by the shogunate, and the future of the thousand black witches staying at the Santu Shrine is uncertain.

Now, [Susano] is showing his real body in the Izumo Mountain where the gods gather, and the huge cut marks stretching seven mountains are the best evidence.

When the gods are proved to be real, the santu shrine that he sees will have an unprecedented prominent position and transcendental security.Want to attack Santu Shrine?Then you are disobeying Susanoo, don't you also want to try the ten-fist sword that smashed the seven mountains?

It is not a bad thing for the Tsuruga camouflage to lose the Thousand Swords. In fact, she is stronger when she has no sword in her hand. To some extent, the "Thousand Swords" restrained her strength.

Hearing Heather's words, Tsuruga's eyes turned red, and he knelt on the ground and slammed his forehead heavily:

"Thank you for your grace."

She had already understood what Heather meant. This Susanoo was going to destroy the shogunate himself.Even though General Kaming ruled the world and had countless troops, Tsuruga Camouflage did not think that the shogunate had even the slightest chance of winning against Susanoo.

By now, she finally understood what was going on with Heather's almost charming and cursed perfect appearance.Only Susanoo, one of the most affectionate and virtuous Sanhui gods, can have such a handsome face that is not like ordinary people.

Heather waved her hand: "Okay, okay, I can't bear to kneel and kowtow at every turn. Let's go out together and see how well those cute little girls have collected thousands of knives."

As he spoke, he got up first, stretched his waist, put on a light blue cloak with the Tsuruga camouflage on his shoulders, and strode out of the hall, followed by the Tsuruga camouflage.

As soon as he stepped out of the hall, Heather saw a hill of iron filings piled up in the square by the wreckage of thousands of knives.The black witches standing on the edge of the square just took a sneak peek at Heather, then immediately lowered their heads in panic, not daring to look any further.

"Why don't you dare look up at me?"

Heather's magnetic voice resounded through the square. Instead of raising their heads, the black witches fell to their knees in fright, and the black ground was covered with human heads.

The Tsuruga camouflage was behind Heather, looking worriedly at Heather, and then at the black witches.In myths and legends, Susanoo's temperament is like the storm he controls, strong and irritable.The Tsuruga camouflage is afraid that these black witches will offend this great god.

Heather walked down the stairs unhurriedly, every footstep seemed to ring in the hearts of the black witches.

"Why are you ashamed of yourself? Why don't you dare to look up at others? Don't you think you are inferior to others? Wrong, big mistake!"

Heather's voice was like thunder exploding in the clear sky——

"You don't have a heart disease, and you don't need the poison of a thousand swords to heal. No spiritual sustenance? Then try to dedicate your whole body and mind to me!"

The black witches raised their heads in disbelief, tortured to the point of physical and mental breakdown by the men and then abandoned, with no identity, no self, no future self, are they really qualified to serve the gods?

"I give you identity! I give you self! I promise you a future!"

The god of the world stood on the square and said loudly——

"Trust me!"

The talismans covering the faces of the black witches were wet with tears.

"Looking forward to me!"

Tsuruga's eyes were red, and his whole body trembled slightly.

"I, Susanoo, one of the three gods, allow you to love me!"

Heather laughed and opened her left arm, and thunder continued to explode in the clear sky:

"Stand up, my black witches, from now on you are my servants, and you should walk in the world with a noble attitude! Tear off the spells on your faces and let me see your faces!"

The black witches stood up quietly one after another, tearing off the spells covered with tears on their faces.

If the [fanaticism] in his eyes can turn into flames, then the Izumo Mountain must have been caught in a sea of ​​flames at this time, right?

Both the Tsuruga camouflage and the thousand black witches have been recast by Heather, and they have completely fallen.Even if Heather asked them to commit suicide with a knife at this moment, I'm afraid they would execute it without hesitation and with joy.

At this time, the iron filings hill formed by the remains of the thousand-sword scrape also began to tremble violently.

Heather stretched out her left hand towards the iron filings hill, and suddenly a intact thousand-knife blade flew out from the bottom, flying towards Heather like lightning.

Tsuruga Camouflage was startled, and was about to intercept it, but was stopped by Heather.

Hey, the Thousand Swordsman was firmly held by Heather, it was the original prototype of the Thousand Swordsman.

Qian Daoxiao has already recognized his master and is impatiently preparing to work for Heather.

Attribution, achieved.

Legendary, achieved.

The blade of the prototype Qiandaojiao in Heather's hand burst out like a scorching sun, and it could be seen that both the blade and the handle began to melt in the invisible flame.

Not only the knife in Heather's hand, but also the hill of iron filings in front of him that was piled up by thousands of knives was also shrouded in flames, and then formed a huge spiral pillar of fire that penetrated the sky and the earth.

Reforging begins!

### Chapter 11 Denial ###

Owari.

Compared with Kyoto, which seems to be holding hilarious celebrations all the time, Owari now has the atmosphere of the capital of the shogunate.

In the corner of the town under the castle, there is a samurai house surrounded by miscellaneous trees. The people around call this house "Negative House".

"Wait, you mean... [God Descends]?"

Standing in the dark room with unlit candles, the glamorous woman with blond hair couldn't help showing a surprised expression even though she covered her face with a fan.

A cold voice came from the direction of the roof, but there was no trace——

"Yes, Izumo has more than a hundred witnesses and relevant testimony."

"Idiot! How do you ask me to explain this ridiculous reason to the general! When did it happen?"

"I'm very sorry, it happened half a month ago."

"What about the specific location?"

"Izumo Daisen."

"Oh hehe, the Santu Shrine...the location of the Thousand Swordsman."

The blond woman covered her mouth with a fan and let out bursts of fake laughter:

"Could it be such a coincidence, right? Just as that unpleasant woman started asking for a knife, an accident happened to Qiandao Xiao?"

That unpleasant woman—when she was mentioned, the blond woman visibly became irritable.But when she became irritated, it was only her tone. The woman's expression, gaze, and attitude did not change at all, and there was still a strong sense of 'denial'.

"Please calm down." The voice from the roof ceiling was still cold.

"My anger depends on the results you achieve! How is that woman doing?"

"Skillful Tactician has already acquired [Extreme Blade·铇] and [Zhandao·Blunt], and is currently heading towards Izumo. If there is no delay on the way, it should be almost there."

"Izumo... What is the so-called descending of the gods?"

"Some eyewitnesses claimed to have seen 'Susano' in the sky at the top of Izumo Daisen. If only one person said this, it might be regarded as a lunatic, but there were as many as 140 witnesses. There is absolutely no possibility of collusion. Princess, the arrival of [Susano] may have really happened.”

"Are you so sure that it's not a vision caused by some kind of weather change? The principle of mirage doesn't need me to give you science, right?"

"The refraction caused by water vapor, sunlight, and clouds may indeed produce such a visual effect, but the [Ten Fist Sword] that can smash seven mountains can't be explained by the 'weather vision'."

"Seven... mountains?"

"From the Izumo Mountain to the west to Leqiu, the cut marks span ten thousand feet. I have personally confirmed this."

"Heh...hehehe..."

The blond woman called 'Princess' couldn't help laughing wildly even though she covered her mouth with a fan:

"God? Why did God choose this time to come to the world? Well, Zaemonemon, since you brought up this topic, you must have something to say, so let's talk."

"Princess Mingjian, some eyewitnesses said that on the day when the god came, [Sekiro] once climbed Izumo Daisen."

"Sekiro...sounds familiar."

"The Ronin Heather, known as 'Wolf', the protagonist of the Eight Tour City incident, the culprit of the destruction of the designated area of ​​​​the second-level disaster [Qijiu Spring], but the hero of the Ma Liuyun Hill incident, has been hailed as the most likely to be from the past three years. A genius swordsman who has won the title of 'Japan's Strongest' in the hands of Kai Baibing. He had a brief contact with a wise strategist."

"Hmph, the man who hooked up with that woman will not end well. What should I say? This man was also poisoned by the knife?"

"Sekiro stayed on Mount Izumo for three days. On the fourth day, he went down the mountain and headed east, without carrying any thousand swords."

Obviously, both Zaemonemon on the ceiling and the blond woman called the princess seem to know the twelve Shikisaki Kiki variant swords very well.

"But Qian Dao Xiao just disappeared, right?"

"Princess Mingjian."

"Hmph, it seems that Mr. 'Sekiro' is not simple. In this way, there will be many forces who are recruiting swords at the same time, which is really exciting, hehe."

"Princess, what do you mean, the arrival of Susanoo has something to do with Sekiro?"

"Perhaps, isn't the legendary Susanoo also a prodigal son who likes to travel mountains and rivers? Maybe this Mr. Sekiro holds something related to Susanoo."

No matter whether it's Neghime or Zaemonemon, it never occurred to him that Heather is the real body of 'Susanoo'.In other words, they didn't dare to think in that direction at all, they only dared to guess that Heather was the favored person of Susanoo.
