"Yes." Yao Li nodded and said, "However, the power of the ghost is strong."

"Mr. Asakawa only needs to take me to the shrine of the Swamp Country according to the mission commission. Why do you need to do anything extra?"

"Didn't I say it?" Asakawa Naoki shook his head and smiled:

"I hate fate the most!"

"Master Yao Li, just stay here and accompany Miss Miroku."

"I think Miss Miroku must be reluctant to leave her mother."

"I'll go with you!" Miroku suddenly said.

"?"

Asakawa Naoki said puzzledly: "We only need a map of the Swamp Country. Isn't it good for Miss Miroku to stay at home with Master Yakuli?"

"I inherited the power of the miko family. I am better than my mother. I can sense the approximate location of the monsters at any time. I know the location of the shrine hall in the Swamp Country very clearly." Miroku said confidently:

"Also, although you said you can defeat the monsters."

"But if you fail to complete the task, the entire ninja world will be plunged into war!"

"I can be the last insurance. Even if you fail to seal the monsters, I can complete the fate of the miko!"

"It seems that Miss Miroku doesn't quite believe in our strength." Asakawa Naoki said helplessly.

"Hmph, that's because you haven't seen the power of the monster." Maitreya said unconvinced:

"I don't care if you want to die, but if you fail to seal the monster, the whole ninja world will suffer!"

Looking at Maitreya's appearance, Asakawa Naoki looked at Yaoli helplessly.

As the person who commissioned this mission and Maitreya's mother, Yaoli is the one who can make the decision.

Yaoli was originally going to refuse, but after seeing the determination in Maitreya's eyes, she suddenly sighed and said:

"Mr. Asakawa, the previous commission will be based on your ideas."

"However, I am going to commission a new task to you."

"I hope that when you go to the Swamp Country Shrine, you can take Maitreya with you to protect her!"

"Mr. Yaoli, it is a bit against the rules to commission a new task while doing a mission." Asakawa Naoki frowned.

"Well, then this is not a mission, but my request." Yaoli said slowly, with a pleading look in his eyes.

"Mother..." Maitreya's eyes were a little puzzled.

"Okay, I accept it." Asakawa Naoki said helplessly: "I can't refuse the request of a beautiful woman."

"Thank you very much." Yaoli smiled.

"Since Miss Maitreya knows the location, let's get ready to go." Asakawa Naoki nodded.

When Asakawa Naoki and Maitreya left the palace of the witch, Yaoli did not leave the bed, but just watched from a distance, with some reluctance in his eyes, and then became resolute again.

"Mitreya, you must live well!"

The reason why Yaoli chose to let Maitreya follow Asakawa Naoki and the others was because she suddenly thought of a problem.

The power of the witch in Maitreya was too strong, and the ghosts might also feel it.

If I leave the palace and go to the Swamp Country to seal the Wuliang, although the Wuliang will send its main force to deal with me, it may also spend a lot of power to deal with Miroku.

The ninjas going to the Ghost Country are too few, only Asakawa Naoki and three others.

Rope Tree and Masamura Oki are fine, but she really can't see through Asakawa Naoki. He is so confident that he can deal with the Wuliang that even she instinctively believes him.

Although he has to deal with the Wuliang, staying with Asakawa Naoki is the safest place.

In this case, it is better to let Miroku follow Asakawa Naoki and attract the firepower of the Wuliang.

However, Yaoli did not find that Asakawa Naoki sprinkled a few inconspicuous Senzu beans before leaving.

......

After leaving the palace of the shrine maiden, Asakawa Naoki looked at Miroku, who was dressed in a shrine maiden costume, and asked:

"Miss Miroku, you are not going to go to the shrine of the Swamp Country just like that?"

"How do we get there?" Miroku asked in confusion.

"......"

Not only Asakawa Naoki, but also Nawaki and Masamura Oki were speechless.

This little shrine maiden seemed to have no common sense.

"Have you never been far away?" Asakawa Naoki asked curiously.

"No, I have always lived here." Miroku shook his head.

Asakawa Naoki and the other two looked at Miroku with pity in their eyes.

Although he was of noble status and had no worries about food and drink, he was trapped in the palace all his life, like a bird in a cage. I really don't know what to say.

So, Asakawa Naoki and the others turned back again and asked Yaoli to change Miroku into a casual dress that was convenient for traveling.

After taking off his formal attire and putting on casual clothes, Maitreya's temperament has changed a lot., not as cold as before. Although her slender figure, fair skin, long white hair, purple pupils and delicate face still made her temperament very noble, she was finally a little more approachable.

"Let's go to the Swamp Country!"

"Yes!"

Nawaki and Masamura Oki rushed to the Swamp Country on the left and right, and their figures were about to disappear in Miroku's sight.

"Your teammates are almost gone, why don't you leave?" Miroku asked puzzled.

"I'm leaving, why are you leaving?" Asakawa Naoki said speechlessly.

At the beginning, I felt that Miroku was a cold miko lady, but now I just feel that Miroku has no common sense and is a little stupid.

"Come up!"

Asakawa Naoki half-knelt down and motioned Miroku to sit down.

"Are you sitting down?"

"Yeah." There was something strange in Miroku's voice.

This is the first time she has been in close contact with a man since she was a child.

As for her father, the shrine maiden is the supreme leader of the ghost country, and the spouse of the shrine maiden is just a tool for reproduction, so Miroku has not seen his father since he was born.

It is hot in summer now. After changing into regular clothes, Miroku's calves and knees are exposed. Now that he is carried on the back of Asakawa Naoki, it always feels a bit strange to have the burning arm pass through the knees, and his fair face unconsciously turns red.

However, the next moment, Miroku has no energy to pay attention to those.

Asakawa Naoki did not use the shrinking earth into an inch, relying only on the strength of the flesh, he crossed dozens of meters in a few steps.

"Ah!"

Miroku only felt the surrounding scenery changing rapidly, and there was the whistling wind in his ears.

It was the first time to feel such a fast speed, which made Miroku's heart beat faster, and his nerves were full of stimulation, so he had no time to care about anything else.

Fortunately, although Asakawa Naoki was fast, he was still quite stable while carrying someone on his back, which Mikoto had quite experienced.

After the initial excitement, Miroku, who was carried on his back, quickly recovered. While appreciating the rapidly changing scenery around him, he was also somewhat curious about Asakawa Naoki's strength.

"Hey, are all of you ninjas so strong?"
