She was wearing a western-style uniform from one of the most prestigious girls' schools in the Kansai region, and had a tall and graceful figure.
However, there is an elusive thorn in her temperament, like a beautiful but prickly rose.
Noticing Huo Xia's gaze, the woman turned her head slightly and met Huo Xia's eyes.
At that moment, Huo Xia was in a trance.
The sunlight flowed around the girl, as if covering her with a golden halo.
He seemed to see a three-legged golden bird.
"Illusion?"
Huo Xia narrowed his eyes, feeling somewhat alert.
The girl smiled and saluted, introducing herself: "Toba Riuna, currently an advisor to the Shrine."
Huo Xia nodded slightly: "Huo Xia."
Toba Riuna narrowed her beautiful eyes and asked in a suggestive tone, "So where are you from? Are you the reincarnation of a god from somewhere, or a Taoist priest from the west, or a martial artist who came here to challenge us?"
"What did you say?"
Huo Xia was confused.
Toba Riuna smiled and said, "Are you playing dumb? I used so many Yin-Yang techniques on you just now, but they all shattered with a bang. Moreover, you still have such a strong divine power, it's like you were cursed by the gods. So who are you?"
"Who understands what you're saying?" Huo Xia couldn't help but complain in his heart.
He is now missing time. Even the identity book brought to him by the [Eighteen-Sided Dice of the Wrong Universe] only records his identity setting before the time travel, but not everything he experienced after the time travel.
Now, the words spoken by this girl who suddenly appeared were like a bunch of new settings suddenly stuffed into his head.
Huo Xia thought for a moment, glanced at the magazine in the girl's hand, and then said, "Do you know the endless August in "The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya" in 09?"
"Why are you suddenly saying this?" Toba Riuna complained, then raised her lips and said, "Of course I know. The plot of each episode is almost exactly the same, but the shots of each scene are completely different, from the costumes to the clips, from the character positions to the background music."
“It can be said to be a perfect ‘storyboard’ teaching.”
"But what's the point of acting in so many episodes? Two or three episodes will be enough, right?"
“That’s why these producers are always so obsessed with their artistic expression!”
"If I had watched something like this back then, I would have sent razor blades to the production team long ago!"
Hearing such complaints, Mars smiled and agreed, then said seriously: "I am in a similar situation now."
Toba Riuna hummed, then tilted her head: "Are you saying that you keep repeating this summer vacation?"
"No, just for this day."
"Groundhog Day?"
Huo Xia nodded, and then said seriously: "Last time you asked me to wait for you here, saying that you would definitely notice my abnormality and help me escape the time loop."
Toba Riuna narrowed her eyes, nodded, and accepted this statement.
"In that case, I'll help you a little."
This attitude made Huo Xia unable to deal with the problem.
"Wait, don't you want to verify it first?"
"No need, no need." Toba Ryuna waved her hand nonchalantly, "An ordinary person like you can't lie in front of a great Onmyoji like me. Your deceitful words will be seen through in an instant."
"Besides, I'm not just any Onmyoji."
As she spoke, the girl placed her soft hands on her lovely chest and said with great confidence: "My name is Toba Riuna."
"In my previous life, I was the spiritual bird of the sun - Yatagarasu."
"Don't look at me like this. I am a being sent to the earth by God. In other words, I am a fellow angel. If I have an epiphany, becoming Jesus Christ may not be a dream."
"Faced with me like this, an ordinary person like you with no magical power can't lie!"
Toba Riuna's crisp words are so concise.
Huo Xia: “…”
When I heard this, I couldn't say such words anymore since it was the first time I met her.
Chapter 29 Finding God's Name
The sunshine shines on young boys and girls walking in the bustling city.
Toba Riuna in her school uniform and Hoka in black casual clothes were walking among them. They were at the prime of their age, and their youthful aura was enviable.
It was as if they were a couple of students who had just walked out of the campus, taking advantage of their free time on the weekend to enjoy a wonderful date.
The streets and alleys of Tokyo are filled with people walking in a hurry.
This city is like a sophisticated machine, with every part running at a set rhythm.
With hurried steps and busy figures, everyone is rushing for life and has no time to appreciate the beautiful scenery around them. However, even in this busy city, sometimes someone will stop and cast curious glances at them.
The two of them walking among the crowd seemed like a unique landscape.
Toba Riuna's school uniform is clean and tidy. Her bookish air and youthful vitality are intertwined, giving people a fresh and refined feeling.
Huo Xia wore black casual clothes, looking calm yet fashionable.
The sun is shining brightly on the streets of Tokyo.
"…This is my experience and my missing memories."
Huo Xia chose to tell part of his situation truthfully.
After hearing this, Toba Riuna glanced at Huo Xia, then thought carefully and said leisurely: "If you didn't say it, I wouldn't have noticed that a big company suddenly appeared in this world, and you suddenly became the company's consultant..."
"It's strange that I didn't notice it."
"If this is a prank by God, it's too much."
Toba Riuna lowered her head, looking somewhat troubled, and murmured, "Such a large-scale operation is like our Onmyoji casting a spell to erase the memories of witnesses in order to hide the mystery."
"It's just that even if all the magicians in the world work together, they can't do it on this scale."
"Then it can only be an act of God."
Hearing this, Huo Xia asked curiously: "Do gods really exist?"
"If you're talking about an omnipotent, omniscient, and unique God, then that doesn't exist."
Toba Riuna explained with a smile: "However, the gods described in those myths still exist, such as Sun Wukong, Jade Emperor, and Taishan Fujun in the West, Susanoo and Amaterasu in Yamato, Zeus and Athena in Europe... These gods all exist~"
Hearing this, Huo Xia nodded and accepted this setting.
Isn’t it just gods running around?
Don’t many novels about the revival of spiritual energy also see various mythological gods appear in the later stages?
Peace of mind, peace of mind.
I've traveled through time twice, so there's nothing to be surprised about.
Toba Riuna continued, "But it's really amazing that you are related to the gods. Could it be that a god has come to the earth?"
"Are gods rare?" Huo Xia asked.
Toba Riuna nodded as a matter of course and said, "Of course gods are rare. It is said that no one has seen a god in four hundred years."
Huo Xia shrugged: "I thought I could hire a fallen god to do anything for just 500 yen."
"Reality is not Noragami." Toba Riuna spit mercilessly: "Young man, you are also the chairman of a big company, don't indulge in the second dimension."
Huo Xia: "I really don't want you to say that."
Toba Riuna smiled.
Huo Xia pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked: "If I am really cursed by God, do you have a way to solve it?"
"It's hard to say." Toba Riuna kept smiling, "Although I have read in ancient Chinese books that if you encounter a god, the best way is to find a way to save your life based on mythology, or simply run away."
"But you should just be cursed."
"If I have to say it, it's like being petrified by Medusa, or being turned into a laurel tree."
"If you work hard, you should be able to find a way."
"but……"
Having said that, Toba Riuna paused for a moment, glanced at Huo Xia cunningly, and then said, "Before that, you need to know which god cursed you."
“Is that important?”
"It's very important!" Toba Riuna held up a finger and explained, "My ancestor, Japan's greatest Yin-Yang master Abe Haruaki, once said, 'A name is the oldest curse.'"
"You need to know that [Mythology] is also a great spell used to bind gods."
"Because of the existence of myths, the gods, while obtaining names and myths, cannot do anything beyond their boundaries. Whether they are doing good to humans or taking revenge on humans, they will not go beyond the scope of their duties."
"Humans cannot change the gods, but they can change myths, thereby indirectly influencing the gods."
"This allows humans to finally respond to God's threats or blessings."
Toba Riuna pointed at Huoxia and spoke in a clear voice.
"Find the name of the god who cursed you, and you will find a way to deal with it."
Under normal circumstances, Huo Xia would probably have secretly complained about such confident words in his heart, but he was thinking about other things right now.
The relationship between myths and gods mentioned above seems strangely familiar for some reason.
Huo Xia pondered for a moment and suddenly realized.
Isn't this the setting in "God Slayer"?
Is there such anime in this world?
After thinking for a moment, Huo Xia asked softly, "A god who violates the myth and descends to the earth should be called the 'God of Disobedience'."
Toba Riuna was slightly stunned, her eyes fluctuated, and she said, "The God of Disobedience... that's a very appropriate term."
"If there is a god who wants to do something beyond his name and the meaning of his mythology."
"If they could go back to the beginning, when they were not yet bound by the limitations of mythology."
"That kind of god is called a 'disobedient god'."
“That’s a very apt statement.”
"They go against the myths woven by people and wander around the world. Some of them wander in the country that gave them their name, while others drift to strange lands."
"If the sun god descends, the whole world will become extremely hot."
"If the God of the Sea descends, the entire world will be swallowed by the waves and sink to the bottom of the sea."
"If the god of the underworld descends, the plague will spread to every corner of the world, turning the world into a city of death."
"If the God of Judgement comes, the people living here will receive various punishments."
"Just passing through this world will bring great influence, creating the God of Disaster who has his own appearance according to his own preferences."
"There really is no better name for a god like this than the 'God of Disobedience'."
After hearing this, Huo Xia was certain that there was no work called "God Killer" in this world. At the same time, he also realized that the world he lived in seemed to be somewhat similar to the world of "God Killer".
If I had to describe it, it would probably be the difference between version 1.1 and version 1.2.
So, Huo Xia asked the most crucial question.
He asked: "Are there beings in this world who kill gods and usurp their power?"
Toba Riuna glanced at Huo Xia and said slowly, "In the notes of some ancient magicians and Qigong practitioners, it is recorded that the existence you are talking about has seized the power of God and is enough to compete with the gods... It seems that there are many mysteries about you."
Huo Xia asked again: "Not now?"
"No."
