"Qiong, where are you going?" In the afternoon, after returning home from school, Dome suddenly wanted to go to the shrine to take a look. The strange feeling from last time made Dome very concerned. Kasugano saw that Dome seemed to want to go out and asked curiously. In the past, Dome would basically hide in his room when he returned home. Now that he wanted to go out, Kasugano asked curiously.
"Yu... So annoying…" He turned to look at Kasugano and sighed." Sometimes, I feel like going out for a walk…" After that, he ignored Kasugano and walked towards the shrine.
"" He scratched his head. Kasugano didn't quite understand what was going on in Dome's mind, but he didn't seem angry anymore. Kasugano also relaxed a little.
" Hey, why are there so many steps in the shrine…" There was still a long flight of stairs ahead of him, and he took a deep breath. Although his stamina seemed to have increased due to what happened at the shrine, he was still a physically useless person. Even though his body had been strengthened the last time, it was still not enough. Looking at the stairs, he was a little unhappy, but he had no choice. He had to finish what he had to do.
"Is there no one here?" Walking up the stairs, Qiong saw that Meei, who was supposed to be in the shrine at this time, was not here.
Closing his eyes, Qiong tried his best to relax and feel the atmosphere around the shrine. It was very warm. Qiong was a little intoxicated and a warm smile appeared on his face.
Meow-
With a meow, Qiong opened his eyes and saw the cat that Goddess Mu Ying called master appear in front of him again.
Meow-
This time, the cat did not jump onto Qiong's body. It stood in front of Qiong and meowed at him a few times. It looked at Qiong before turning around and walking into the forest. On the way, it even turned around to look at Qiong...
"You want me to follow?" Seeing the cat's actions, a doubt appeared in Qiong's mind. Although he didn't really understand why, Qiong still decided to follow the cat to take a look.
'What is this place…' He hopped up the winding narrow path along the deep forest. He wondered why the cat had brought him here, but it seemed that he had not arrived yet. Looking at the cat that was still walking in front of him and kept looking back at him, he felt a little tired, but he decided to follow. He felt that this matter should have something to do with what happened when he first came to the shrine.
Panting, Qiong finally climbed up a small slope. Looking at the scenery in front of him, Qiong was stunned.
'Isn't this the place where the goddess takes a bath during the shrine's memorial ceremony?'Looking at the lake in front of him, Qiong knew where he was now. However, why did the cat wait for him to come here?
'What is this feeling…' Suddenly, Qiong felt as if something was calling him. A warm feeling filled him, and he couldn't help but close his eyes and take a step forward.
If Qiong were to open her eyes, she would definitely be shocked by her current appearance. Her entire body was still glowing like last time. Although it was still very weak, it was much stronger than the first time. This was not the most important thing. Because Qiong was walking with her eyes closed, she did not see that she had already walked to the edge of the lake. Qiong, who did not feel anything, continued to step into the lake.
Miraculously, Qiong didn't step into the water. Instead, she stood on the surface of the lake and continued walking forward. She didn't even get a drop of water on her shoes, let alone fall into the lake. Qiong didn't know about this at all. She just followed her instincts and walked. The cat was in a different state from Qiong. Although its footsteps weren't fast, it was very stable. Step by step, it crossed the entire lake.
Without stopping, Qiong continued to walk forward. There was still a flight of stairs there. It was different from the stairs of the shrine below. No, it should be said that it was more formal than the stairs of the shrine below. Although it was very old, it gave people a more solemn feeling. Qiong still did not feel much.
When they were climbing the stairs earlier, Qiong would complain that he was tired. However, this time, Qiong didn't feel that way. Although this step was longer and steeper than the one below, Qiong didn't feel anything at all. He continued to move forward until he reached the top.
Reaching out his hands towards the shrine above, Qiong slowly reached out his hands as if he wanted to receive something. A white light came out from the shrine in front of him and shot straight at Qiong. It entered Qiong's body and was completely absorbed by him.
A comfortable expression appeared on Qiong's face as he smiled and accepted the rays of light. When Qiong completely accepted the doubts of the white light, his white hair fluttered without any wind, causing the white light on Qiong's body to become even more dazzling.
"Is that so? Is that so..." Opening his eyes, Qiong looked at the shrine in front of him. Although the shrine was dilapidated, Qiong felt that the shrine was so warm and solemn.
Qiong knew about it now. He knew about some things related to him. Although it wasn't much, Qiong knew that he could eliminate the sorrow of the people here. No matter how much, whenever Qiong helped others and fulfilled their wishes, Qiong would become even more perfect and powerful. The obsession that belonged to Qiong in his body would also be released and eliminated. If Qiong did more, Qiong might even become immortal.
"Although I don't really care about becoming a god, it's good to be able to get rid of my obsession.”Qiong didn't care much about becoming a god. After all, he had to do a lot of things to become a god. Based on the situation in this world, Qiong basically couldn't succeed. After all, this world was only a low-level world. Theoretically, there wouldn't be gods. Qiong didn't care much. Moreover, if he became a god and lived forever, watching his friends grow old one by one might be the saddest feeling.
Ji ji ji--
Just as Qiong finished sorting out the information he had received, a bird's cry came from above him. He raised his head and saw a small bird flying towards him. He stretched out his hands and the bird stopped on Qiong's hands.
"This is…" Qiong was a little confused when he saw the thing in the beak of the bird. It looked like a necklace.
He placed the necklace in Qiong's hand and the bird chirped a few times before flying away.
"Is that so?" With a smile on his face, Qiong finally knew who the owner of the necklace was and why the little bird had given it to him.
"The Heavenly Maiden, Kazuyoshi Kazuyoshi, is still involved in this matter.”Originally, Qiong had planned to let Kasugano handle the matter of the goddess, Mu Ying, and Nagari Kazuyo. After all, Qiong had planned to let Kasugano be with one of them. But now, it seemed that he had no choice but to participate. Looking at the necklace, Qiong was thinking about how to better resolve this matter.
" It's indeed amazing. If I didn't experience it myself, I wouldn't believe it no matter what…" Walking on the surface of the lake, Qiong looked at the water beneath his feet and shook his head with a smile.
After this time, Qiong could control himself to walk on the water. Although he still couldn't fly, he could easily walk on the water.
"Little fellow, thank you…" Looking at the cat on his shoulder, Qiong said with a smile. This was a Spirit Cat, a spirit beast that basically couldn't exist in this world. No wonder Qiong had a strange feeling when he saw it. This cat had helped Qiong a lot this time and Qiong was very grateful to it.
Qiong had wanted the cat to follow him, but he refused. He wanted to stay by Mu Ying's side as an ordinary kitten. He had no intention of following Qiong. Although Qiong felt a little pity, he did not care too much. After all, he had been with Mu Ying for so long. It was normal for him to have feelings for her. Qiong did not insist.
