Comprehensive Manga: The Master is not here today

"——!"

The summoning array that emerged above the shield of the round table emitted a dazzling light. As Fujimaru Ritsuka sang, a pretty figure appeared in front of everyone——

"If you choose to summon me, that's what it's like, right?"

"My priest, you need me very much now...right?"

"Tenochtitlan!"

The next moment he saw the other party's figure appear, Fujimaru Ritsuka's smile was fully revealed, and he immediately greeted him happily.

At this time, Conan and Haihara Ai, who were standing behind and watching, couldn't help showing doubts.

They still remember that what little Leonardo da Vinci said just now was to summon the gods, but now——

The person who was summoned wore a teal-colored beret and sunglasses, a designer and off-shoulder top, and tight black jumpsuits that revealed her smooth, white long legs. Her black rippled curly hair was mixed with highlights. The blue hair can’t help but give people a [watery] impression.

No matter how you look at it, this is an urban beauty and fashionable girl who is quite fashionably dressed, not a powerful, terrifying, and awe-inspiring god.

"Well, this is a very good response. You are worthy of being my priest."

Seeing the enthusiastic smile on Fujimaru Ritsuka's face, Tenochtitlan nodded with satisfaction, and then said:

"However, it would be nice if there were more substantive actions, such as hugs and the like...right?"

"Well……"

Fujimaru Ritsuka scratched his cheek, did not answer, just smiled:

"Anyway, it's great that you're here."

Tenochtitlan raised his eyebrows slightly, glanced at Mashu who was standing next to Fujimaru Ritsuka, and said nothing more.

She took a general glance at the surrounding environment, withdrew her gaze, looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka in front of her again and said:

"I don't know why I was summoned, but it doesn't seem like a simple problem that can be solved through battle, right?"

"Yes."

Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded, ready to explain the current situation in general.

At this moment, the doorbell rang suddenly. If nothing else happened, it should be Amano Hina and the others.

It just so happens that we can take the opportunity to explain the current situation to Tenochtitlan and tell them the current situation together.

So Fujimaru Ritsuka led everyone out of the summoning room and went to open the door to greet Amano Hina and the others.

At this time, in addition to Amano Hina and Morishima Hodaka, there was also a little boy with short to medium hair among them. He looked like he was still in elementary school, but he looked a few years older than Conan and the others.

But the focus right now is not on Amano Hina's younger brother, but on the anxious and panicked expressions on the three people's faces.

Seeing Fujimaru Ritsuka appear, Morishima Hodaka suddenly said anxiously:

"Miss Ritsuka, look at Miss Hina...!"

Seeing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka's expression became serious and asked:

"What's wrong?"

"Ritsuka, there seems to be something wrong with my body."

Amano Hina tried to reply calmly, but the trembling breath in her words still exposed the fear in her heart.

As she spoke, she grasped the hem of her clothes with both hands and pulled it up, slightly exposing her abdomen. The beautiful body with a youthful air that should have been exposed, now showed inhuman characteristics——

A piece of Amano Hina's left abdomen completely lost its physical appearance and turned into an unknown translucent shape. From time to time, a string of floating bubbles appeared. From the texture alone, it almost looked like it had turned into [water]. substance.

"It wasn't there when I went out this morning, but I suddenly discovered it when I went back..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka's expression instantly became solemn.

For some reason, when she saw the abnormality on Amano Hina's body, she couldn't help but think of those swimming fish made of water that had been photographed and lived in the divine realm.

"I said, what on earth is going on with my sister?!"

Amano Hina's younger brother, Amano Nagi asked anxiously.

He was still going to school normally, but when he got home he was told a lot of messy things, and then he suddenly discovered the problem with his sister. At this time, his brain was completely in a mess.

"this……"

"You can tell at a glance that this is a [sacrifice], right?"

At this time, Tenochtitlan came to Fujimaru Ritsuka's side at some point, and attracted everyone's attention as soon as he opened his mouth.

Amano Hina was a little confused and said:

"[Sacrifice]? What is that?"

Tenochtitlan looked at Amano Hina, raised his eyebrows slightly and said:

"It seems that you are also a priest of a certain god. Don't you even know about this kind of thing?"

Priest? Does it refer to her identity as a weather witch?

Amano Hina's expression was a little confused. At this time, Fujimaru Ritsuka raised her hands in embarrassment and said:

"Well, if it's just the word [sacrifice], I understand the meaning, but if possible, can you explain the current situation in detail?"

"……All right,"

Looking at his priest, Tenochtitlan was silent for a moment, and then said:

"In that case, let me explain."

This problem is actually easy to explain.

Whether they are priests or witches, they are essentially people who serve the gods. They have a closer connection with the gods they serve than anyone else. Not only can they listen to the gods' voices and talk to them, they can even receive blessings from the gods and even borrow them. The power of the gods.

"...But everything comes at a price. At least the vast majority of gods I know have the concept that they are not the type who are willing to provide help for free."

"This is not due to desire, but to natural principles and rules. It is the simple principle of 'what you want to get, you must pay first', and the reverse is also true."

Having said this, Tenochtitlan glanced at Fujimaru Ritsuka without leaving a trace and said:

"Of course, there will be a few people who are particularly favored, and God is willing to break such rules."

"But generally speaking, if you want to get help from the gods, you must first offer something to the gods. Such behavior is called a sacrifice."

"And even if the order is reversed, it's essentially the same."

"As for what to offer to satisfy the gods, this is a matter of the gods' own interests and hobbies."

After hearing this, everyone roughly understood Amano Hina's situation.

Amano Hina's power to make the sky clear comes from the God of Weather. In other words, Amano Hina borrowed the other party's power.

And now, the changes in Amano Haruna's body are the sacrifice she offers to the other party, which can also be said to be the price of using her ability.

Thinking of this, Fujimaru Ritsuka continued to ask Tenochtitlan:

"So with Yang Nai's current situation, is there any way to recover?"

"Well……"

Amano Hina had already pulled down her clothes again. Tenochtitlan glanced at the covered mutated parts and replied:

"It looks like it should be able to recover, but even I can't make an immediate judgment on what to do."

"However, I know there is one simplest and most difficult method that really works."

Fujimaru Ritsuka asked quickly:

"What is it?"

"That is to find the other party directly and ask the other party to return the 'sacrifice' that was collected."

When she saw the condition of Amano Haruna, she already understood that it was an aura that was somewhat similar to her existence. At the same time, she also roughly guessed the purpose of Fujimaru Ritsuka's summoning her.

Tenochtitlan raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said:

"You summoned me specifically for this, right?"

Damn it, I have a cold, this is a bad batch

I feel like my brain is not my own
