Before Yukima Azuma could speak, the Itomori god spoke first, thanking him in a long string of words.
Yukima Azuma hesitated briefly.
The situation was a bit different from what he had imagined.
The Itomori god was not cold at all, but seed rather easy to talk to.
At this mont, the box containing the twin flowers inside Yukima Azuma's chest gently trembled.
Then, Star and Lumine erged from Yukima Azuma's collar.
The three gods exchanged stares.
The atmosphere grew a bit tense.
Suou Yuki assessed the two chibi versions peeking out from Yukima Azuma's collar.
(｡· v ·｡) ?
She was sowhat confused, wondering why these two gods took on the appearance of President Shinomiya and President Shinomiya's niece.
"They don't have a fixed form," Yukima Azuma explained when he noticed Suou Yuki's confusion. "Since the first ones them see is Kaguya and Maki, they borrowed their appearance temporarily."
"They mostly wanted to appear cute, it's entirely a personal preference."
Star and Lumine's primary pursuit was to be with people whose fate was happy.
They witnessed the turning of destinies and the intersection of encounters.
Sotis, they would stir the threads of fate.
But the ultimate goal was to witness the interesting shifts in the flow of fate.
To achieve that goal—after being caught by Yukima Azuma—they naturally chose an appearance that he would accept.
To avoid being thrown into Tokyo Bay in his anger.
It might also be that they enjoyed being close to people with interesting fates.
After hearing this, Suou Yuki couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
So there were gods who "used gap-moe to gain favor" too?
( ͠° ͟ʖ ͡°) ?
She felt the dignity of the gods had sowhat collapsed.
The three gods exchanged glances for a mont.
It was unclear whether they had used a form of communication that Yukima Azuma and Suou Yuki couldn't comprehend.
In any case, after a brief silence—
The Itomori god ignored Star and Lumine and turned back to Yukima Azuma, asking:
"May I ask, is there anything you need my help with this ti?"
"As long as it's within my abilities, I will do my best to assist."
The Itomori god spoke so casually—
It made Yukima Azuma's prepared words seem completely unnecessary.
After thinking for a mont, Yukima Azuma directly asked the purpose of this visit.
"Right now, the spiritual power is reviving, isn't it? Could you tell more about this?"
The reason Yukima Azuma had co to the Itomori god was to inquire about matters related to spiritual power.
At ho, there was a Guardian-Mommy who had once suffered from Adolescence Syndro.
Then there was a cute onee-san with long black hair who occasionally turned into a cat.
Though the issue with Guardian-Mommy had been resolved—
The onee-san turning into a cat had a very low frequency of transformation, but recently, it seed like she had started to grasp so rules behind it.
Still, these things were ultimately unstable elents.
Ever since learning about the revival of spiritual power—
Yukima Azuma felt these issues were all likely connected to it.
The information that Star and Lumine could provide was indeed quite limited.
Both of these gods were newly born not long ago—
And they had co from a remote island far from human society.
They basically knew nothing if asked about anything.
But the Itomori god was different.
As a god worshiped by the town of Itomori for generations—
The legend of the Itomori god had existed for thousands of years.
The secrets known by the Itomori god were not sothing Star or Lumine could compare with.
After hearing Yukima Azuma's question—
The Itomori god did not hesitate, directly beginning to explain.
And from the Itomori god's words—
Yukima Azuma also learned a few things about the setup of this world.
First of all, the fall of the cot Charlotte—was actually not considered an unexpected accident.
On the contrary, it seed like a fixed phenonon of this world.
Every thousand and a half years (1.500), when the cot Charlotte passed by planet Earth, such an event would occur.
The Itomori lake near the Itomori town—
Was actually ford during the last event, a thousand and a half years ago, when the cot fell.
As for the Earth itself, it already contained a vast amount of spiritual power within.
However, in its normal state, this spiritual power remains dormant.
The spiritual power is sealed beneath the ground.
It is only when stimulated by materials with high spiritual energy—
That a surge of spiritual power occurs.
Such events have happened countless tis on Earth.
The legends of the gods on this planet—
Their existence actually originates from these periods of spiritual power surges.
Each ti, there are specific rules associated with it.
When the cot Charlotte approaches the planet—
The spiritual power begins to stir, signaling the onset of a prelude.
Then cos the impact—the official activation of spiritual power.
The surging spiritual power begins to spread around, boiling over and awakening nearby spiritual energy.
At this point, phenona such as the birth of gods, the appearance of superpowers—
And even ancient gods like the Itomori god will awaken as well.
As a side note—
Originally, the Itomori god was not haughty or aloof at all.
It was simply that, at that ti, the god lacked the strength to speak.
About a month after the cot fell—
The Itomori god, located in the heart of the active spiritual energy area, gathered enough energy to perform a space-ti swapper.
Then, the god quickly sought out Yukima Azuma—soone who could save Itomori town.
As for three years ago, when Yukima Azuma and Suou Yuki visited the shrine area—
The lack of a response back then—
Was because, at that ti, the Itomori god was still in a dormant state, unable to awaken.
After the spiritual power surge—
The effects from the cot's fall will gradually dissipate.
The surging spiritual power, after boiling up—
Will eventually cool down again.
In the end, everything returns to a quiet state as before.
The gods fall back into slumber, and superpowers disappear.
Everything waits for the next spiritual power recovery cycle.
After learning from the Itomori god about the world's setup—
Both Yukima Azuma and Suou Yuki were deeply shocked.
Yukima Azuma was slightly better off—
After all, he had a system and had been exposed to many supernatural events.
He had even "caught" two wild gods.
In his mind, he had already made similar speculations.
As for Suou Yuki, she was completely expanding her worldview.
"So, does that an all the mythology stuff is real?"
"Does this world really have Amaterasu, Tsukuyomi, and even Kaguya-hi?"
Suou Yuki asked curiously.
She hoped that "Big D. Zeus The F. Machine" didn't exist, or she would be worried about getting raped during her stroll or sothing.
εつ (っ- ‸ - ς)
The Itomori god remained silent for a mont.
Then patiently explained:
"Not exactly. To be more precise, most of it is fictional."
"Tsukuyomi and Kaguya-hi are fictional, but Amaterasu truly exists."
"She has her own domain, Takamagahara, and is a very powerful god."
"Even before humans appeared on this land, she had already existed."
"However, compared to the mythology of your human world… there are still so discrepancies."
Suou Yuki blinked several tis.
Though she felt like she had just learned sothing of great significance—
Upon reflection… it seed like there wasn't much truly useful information?
"So how long will the period of spiritual power surging last?"
"How much ti will it take for the spiritual power to subside?"
Yukima Azuma asked.
Compared to all the exciting and stimulating things he had just heard—
Yukima Azuma preferred a peaceful daily life much more.
The unstable elents should be resolved as soon as possible.
The Itomori god remained silent for a while.
It seed like the god was contemplating sothing.
After a mont, the god slowly gave an answer:
"Each ti is different, but it usually fluctuates between one hundred to three hundred years."
"This ti, the scale is neither large nor small, so it should last about two hundred years."
