"Okay, let's go back together." Asakawa Naoki nodded and said:

"It's just right to hand in the task with Master Yaoli."

"Then let's go!" Miroku took Asakawa Naoki's hand and walked out of the cave.

Seeing this scene, Rope Tree and Masamura Oki, who followed behind them, winked at each other, their eyes full of teasing.

After the four left, the forbidden power that maintained the Swamp Country Shrine disappeared, and the cave that sealed the body of the monster collapsed.

Because it was late, the four ate some wild boar meat left over from yesterday and found a flat place to rest for a night.

The next morning, the four ate some dry food and prepared to set off.

"Naoki, carry me!"

Miroku opened his arms and jumped onto Asakawa Naoki's back without waiting for him to squat down. He put his hands around his neck and tied his body tightly behind his back.

"Now that you have awakened the power of the witch, you should be able to travel by yourself." Asakawa Naoki said helplessly.

"My body is still too weak. Are you going to leave me?" Miroku said with a look of wanting to cry.

"......"

Asakawa Naoki put his hands on Miroku's knees, looked at Nawaki and Masamura Oki and said:

"The mission has been completed. Let's report to Master Yakuli first, and then return to Konoha."

"Got it!"

In this way, the four of them set out on the road back to the Land of Demons. After completing the mission, they felt much more relaxed than when they came.

When they came, although they had a certain estimate of the strength of the ghost, even Asakawa Naoki had a certain sense of urgency and was worried about accidents in the mission.

Now that the ghost was easily sealed and got a cellmate with a zero-tail void, he felt a lot more relaxed.

While relaxing, Asakawa Naoki smelled a hint of fragrance at the tip of his nose. Smelling this fragrance and feeling the two warm and soft objects behind him, his heart was also a little charming.

Because of the pressure of the ghosts and the mission, he instinctively ignored the charm of Miroku, the shrine maiden.

Because the ghosts were sealed and the control of the ghost army was seized by Miroku, and because several people had already gone there, the road back to the Ghost Country became very smooth and fast, and it was expected to return to the Ghost Country before dusk.

However, someone didn't want it to be so fast.

Because as long as the mission was completed, Asakawa Naoki would leave the Ghost Country forever.

Although they had only known each other for less than a week, Miroku didn't know why she cared so much about him.

But her heart told herself that she didn't want Asakawa Naoki to leave like this.

With sadness in his heart, Miroku hugged Asakawa Naoki's arms tighter and tighter.

When the sun set and night fell, Asakawa Naoki and his party had arrived at the shrine maiden palace in the Ghost Country.

Both Nawaki and Masamura Oki were a little tired, so they rested in the guest room of the shrine maiden palace for one night.

On the other hand, the little witch Miroku, who was clearly carried by Naoki Asakawa all the time and didn't travel much, fell asleep on his back because of her worries.

"Mr. Asakawa, thanks to you this time." Yao Li said gratefully.

Originally Yao Li was a little desperate because only the Konoha family sent out ninjas, but she didn't expect that Naoki Asakawa could complete the task so perfectly.

Not to mention the successful sealing of the Wuliang, and bringing Miroku back to the Land of Ghosts intact, she was originally prepared to use him as bait to disperse the power of the Wuliang.

When the Wuliang ninjas really appeared, they were easily wiped out by the immortal soldiers left by Naoki Asakawa in advance.

It was because of this that she had the opportunity to reunite with her daughter again.

"No need to thank me, completing the task is what we should do." Naoki Asakawa smiled.

"No, your duty is to complete the mission, but we are indeed under your care." Yao Li said again:

"Are you going back to Konoha tomorrow?"

"Yes." Asakawa Naoki nodded.

"Don't go!"

A crisp voice sounded from Asakawa Naoki's ears. At some point, Miroku had woken up, holding Asakawa Naoki's back with his hands and feet firmly.

"Miroku, don't make trouble." Yao Li frowned and said, "Mr. Asakawa is our distinguished guest."

"But, mother, I don't want Naoki to leave." Miroku said reluctantly:

"Naoki, can you stay and not go back to Konoha?"

"As long as you are willing to stay, I will ask mother to let you become the guardian of the Kingdom of Demons, and your status is only below that of the shrine maiden."

"Let's protect the Kingdom of Demons together and pass on the power of the shrine maiden."

At this point, Miroku's meaning is already very clear, and even Yao Li is a little surprised.

What on earth did his daughter go through? She became so proactive after not seeing her for a few days.

However, Yaoli also understood that it was impossible for Naoki Asakawa to stay in a remote place like the Land of Demons. His purple pupils turned slightly, and he suddenly thought of a good idea.Yaoli first pulled Miroku off Asakawa Naoki's back, and then said:

"Mr. Asakawa, I'm sorry, my daughter lost her composure and embarrassed you."

"It's okay, Miss Miroku is actually very sensible, and Mr. Yaoli has a good upbringing." Asakawa said with a smile.

"However," Yaoli changed his tone and continued:

"Mr. Asakawa passed through several countries around the Ghost Country and arrived at the Swamp Country. He should have seen the poverty of the surrounding countries, right?"

"Yes." Asakawa Naoki nodded.

In the ninja world, the Rain Country is already poor. He didn't expect the Ghost Country to be even poorer, and he didn't expect that the Ghost Country with the shrine maiden is the richest among the surrounding countries.

Especially the Swamp Country, it doesn't look like a country at all, but more like a wasteland.

I'm afraid that the shrine maiden who sealed the body of the ghost took this into consideration and used the Swamp Country as the place to seal the body of the ghost.

Even if the ghost is resurrected, there is no need to worry about causing too many casualties.

"As a contemporary shrine maiden, I have no choice but to take responsibility for the poverty of the Demon Country and the surrounding countries." Yaoli said slowly:

"So, I hope you can take Miroku to Konoha to study."

"You don't have to let her become a ninja, just let her learn how to manage and develop the country."

"As the next generation of shrine maiden, Miroku will eventually need her to manage the Demon Country."

"I hope that after she takes over, she can make the Demon Country and the surrounding countries headed by the Demon Country better."

Go to Konoha to study? Isn't Miroku an international student of the Demon Country?

Listening to his mother's words, Miroku, who was originally depressed because of leaving Asakawa Naoki, suddenly became excited, and then stared at Asakawa Naoki with a pair of purple eyes, and his eyes seemed to say:

"Hurry up and agree!"

As long as Asakawa Naoki agrees, Miroku can go to Konoha with Asakawa Naoki.

I have heard that Konoha Village is located in the most prosperous Land of Fire in the Ninja World, but Miroku is actually more concerned about whether he can stay with Naoki Asakawa.

As long as he can stay with Naoki Asakawa, Miroku is confident that he can take him down.

At that time, Miroku will succeed the position of the miko, and then let Naoki become her guardian. The two of them will definitely be able to develop the Land of Demons together!

However, Naoki Asakawa shook his head and nodded, leaving the two miko, Yakuli and Miroku, confused.
