City of Juneau.

Since the 1980s, Alaska's tourism industry has developed rapidly, and the city has also benefited from the development of the road network.

There are highways and various roads crisscrossing the country, trunk railways are everywhere, and airports are in almost every town.

Connected in all directions, this is the best transportation hub, but this is also the norm in modern cities.

now.

Juneau, a city of only 30,000 people, seems to have attracted the attention of 100,000 people, or even more than a million people.

because.

Right here, on the originally quiet mountain, a shrine that was different from the past quietly opened again.

ah……

No, under the commotion caused by a certain god.

It can be said that there is noisy singing and dancing, firecrackers are blasting, and huge ribbons and balloons float across the entire city.

People from Juneau were attracted.

And more.

It is a private jet marked by Hammer Industries, Petroleum and Energy Group, and other world's top capitals, chaebols, and even individual groups.

jointly.

Social media, online news people, etc., who were attracted by these big figures, also rushed over after smelling the smell.

If you say it seriously.

This is the first time in the world that a shrine with extraordinary abilities, a so-called symbol of the gods, has officially come into contact with human society.

The biggest name among them is undoubtedly our Mr. Justin Hammer.

"Quick, quick, quick!"

"Let's go up the mountain quickly, we must catch this big news."

Climbing up the mountain.

News trucks and independent media people rushed up with microphones in hand, along with other people from Juneau who were joining in the fun and witnessing this grand event in person.

…

At this moment.

On the top of Juno Mountain, there is the Shoushi Shrine.

Although people gathered outside the shrine and it could be said to be extremely lively at this time, inside the shrine it was as usual.

Thanks to the efforts of Frogoko and Kanako, this brand new shrine in the new world can be said to be almost flawless.

The power of the gods is fully demonstrated here, including the frog who controls the earth and the snake who claims to be the god of wind and rain.

The power of the two resonated and reshaped this shrine.

"winter!"

As the first ray of sunshine in the morning shines, the heavy and dull drum beats.

The prayer water blessed by the gods gurgled among the bamboos.

There are spoons of different sizes placed on the wooden railings, and signs representing various good wishes such as a safe home and a bright future are hung in front of different pools.

And legend.

People who are full of faith and make wishes here will receive blessings from the gods.

not to mention.

Within this shrine, there are real gods.

but……

Perhaps in human imagination, most gods should be serious and serious.

But now.

In the room, Kanako Yasaka is grabbing the sleepy Frog and shaking her crazily.

"Hey, hey, you guy, wake up and don't let me fall asleep now."

So angry!

It's rare that she does so much preparation work.

Writing invitations, sending emails, even checking the email addresses of big companies and big capitals are all very time-consuming...

Moreover, to make it unique, every email has Kanako Yasaka’s autograph on it.

Even for emails, there are the snake and frog logos of the Shinto Shrine. It is not easy to design these.

Kanako-sama feels that she has not slept well recently and has been busy working for the shrine.

On the other hand, after bringing her to the new world, she left a mess, a dead frog who didn't care about anything.

Damn it, damn it, I really want to beat Frog!

However, now Kanako Yasaka couldn't help but think so much about the guests she invited.

The beings who have received the "blessing from the gods" are already waiting outside the mountain gate, all for the sake of better development of the shrine and gaining more faith.

Kanako Yasaka took a deep breath and calmed down her mood.

"Did you hear that?

"

"We'll talk about hibernation later. Now cheer up and go out to pick up guests!"

Facing Yasaka Kanako's roar, Frogzi's sleepy eyes and the small eyes on his hat were lost in the lake.

"Hmm~"

And she made a sound that made Kanako angry, but also seemed extremely cute.

…

The two gods in the room were having a friendly day-to-day life behind the towering red torii gate.

It is obviously late autumn now.

But the lotus flowers in the pond were in full bloom, pink and white intertwined, and koi carps swam under the wide lotus leaves from time to time, leaving a touch of gold.

The moment you step into the shrine.

The cool yet warm breeze blows on my face, and after passing through the torii gate, I have entered another world.

A different kind of breath emerges, which makes people feel refreshed. At the same time, the chirping of insects, frogs, and birds chirping complement each other.

From time to time, you can still see a few furry squirrels, sticking out their buttocks and reaching out to try to snatch away the delicious nuts from the table dedicated to the gods.

Humans and nature are in harmony in this shrine.

"Xiao Ai."

Not far away, with frog hairpins and snake hair accessories on her long green hair, Sanae Tofudani, who was also wearing a miko costume, came over.

Even if it is the last minute and believers are about to visit, you must do the last cleaning.

This is the attitude of a shrine maiden who works hard.

Likewise, for Xiao Ai, this new miko who needs serious teaching from Sanae, since she is someone recognized by the two gods, Suwako and Kanako.

and.

In this new world, they share the identity of players, although they are not in the same camp.

However, in the end, he chose to follow the Morishi Shrine. To such Haibara Ai, Sanae showed the greatest kindness.

Besides.

Xiao Ai also has a very good personality, at least she gets along very well with Sanae.

"Don't be nervous."

"It's just a simple visit to worship. As long as we do what we were told, no matter how many people there are, nothing will go wrong."

Sanae smiled slightly.

Inside the shrine is the territory of the gods. This is the residence of gods that is different from the human world, and shrine maidens are the people who serve the gods.

No one can cause trouble in the shrine, because that will arouse the wrath of thunder...

"call."

The breeze swirls slightly.

As Sanae approached, Xiao Ai felt the breeze blowing on her face.

Holding the priesthood of "Wind Blessing", she has the miraculous ability to cause wind and rain by using secret techniques, which makes her always surrounded by a small breeze.
