The Self-cultivation of the Passerby Male Protagonist

"...whatever you say."

The girl glanced at the ancient witch, and hid her anger and killing intent well under her calm appearance: "Whether you believe it or not, time will tell everything."

"Including the appearance of that evil fairy today?"

"..."

The girl was unnaturally silent, but she quickly said: "Her appearance is unexpected, even 'he' doesn't know, there are other people besides us who can enter here on the premise of knowing the existence of this world .”

"Heh," the ancestor shrine maiden let out a chuckle of unknown meaning, and said lightly: "18 years ago, you came to Gensokyo and told me the truth about the Hakurei shrine maiden."

"And then you believe it."

"Yes, because I have no reason to doubt. I have already had my own guesses about the truth you said, but it's just missing enough evidence."

"So, why are you still making the same mistakes now?"

The girl expressed her doubts: "You who already know everything, why did you choose to go back to that place? That's not a paradise, at least not your paradise."

"...I never hated Zi, even though she kept it from me for more than ten years, and even planned to keep it from me until the day I died."

The previous priestesses lowered their heads, and on the shadowy face, only those eyes were extremely clear.

"I just didn't have a choice before, so now... I want a chance to decide my destiny."

"Then why don't you just go back with that guy? Why do you have to spend so much time going around in a circle? Isn't the boy's purpose just to bring you back to Gensokyo?"

"It's not the same," the ancient priestess shook her head, "This is not the same."

"What's the difference? You will die then, and now that witch will die too. Nothing will change."

"Then I'll try to change it for you to see."

The ancient priestess smiled confidently, "Just like that evil fairy said, let everything come to an end."

"You are too arrogant, Miko."

The girl looked contemptuously at the previous priestess, and said, "I don't deny that your choice to tell that boy the truth is a very courageous choice, but it is far from enough."

"Oh?"

"The inheritance of the Hakuli Miko has been around for thousands of years. Every generation of Miko is an extraordinary person. Wouldn't they not notice the abnormalities that you can detect? But why has nothing happened in the past 1000 years?"

The girl said to the ancient priestess with a slight sarcasm: "What can you do by yourself?"

"Yes, I really can't do anything by myself, but isn't there him?"

The ancient witch smiled slightly: "I don't believe in your Adam, but in my Takeya."

"Sophistry, this is obviously the same person..."

"I told you, it's different."

The eyes of the previous priestess drifted away, which was the direction of Takeya's departure. At this moment, her eyes seemed to reflect the immature figure that did not exist here, arrogant, gentle, and a little unreliable.

But trustworthy.

It's worth her risking everything to trust each other.

"Oh, by the way," the former witch suddenly raised her head and asked, "Speaking of which, that guy Huo Qing'e seemed to have said something about the leylines when he left."

"Oh, that, that's..."

Chapter 22 Prince Shotoku

"Since the dawn of chaos, the sea never dries up, and the stone never rots. Why do human beings die eventually?"

"Reincarnation has no reason, life and death flow forever, this is the rule, this is ethics, this is necessary for the cycle of yin and yang, and it is also the avenue of the cycle of heaven and earth."

"Because of this, when the world is distorted, I must come here."

"As a sage, as a guide, as a detached person who transcends the shackles of life and death, I will guide you on the way forward."

"My name is God Son Feng Cong'er, and only by respecting the Dao of Heaven and Earth can I become a saint."

"I enshrine the believers who want to establish my legend, and suppress the demon monks who want to erase my existence. I have already come to the world. If anyone refuses to accept it, just let it go!"

When the saint in the noble purple robe ended his long speech on the occasion of his resurrection, he realized that there seemed to be no one else on the ground except for a dazed magician and a dark-faced priestess.

"Ah?" The girl who claimed to be a saint scratched her hair in a little embarrassment: "Why does the timing seem a bit wrong?"

……

Reimu was very angry, very angry, not only because her family's shrine was destroyed twice in a short period of time, but also because the "murderer" dared to speak nonsense in front of her.

Although the real murderer had already fled thousands of miles away, she didn't think that this guy who appeared suddenly had nothing to do with that strange fairy.

but……

"The breath of faith," Lingmeng looked at the purple-robed girl in the air, frowning slightly, and muttered, "Is this guy a god?"

"No, I am a saint."

"..."

God knows how this guy heard Reimu talking to himself from such a distance, but the other party's answer without any concealment made Reimu heave a sigh of relief.

It's fine if it's not a god.
