“The most famous one is the Great Buddha of Kamakura!”

"It's just that the temples and shrines here are also very famous..."

"Then which is the most famous temple or shrine here?"

"most famous…………"

After listening to Izumi Qianyu's question, Miyako thought for a while and then said.

"...It should be Tsuruoka Hachimangu Shrine...right?"

Miyako's tone was slightly uncertain.

She has never been to Kamakura, or so she heard from others.

"Hachiman?"

After hearing Miyako's answer, Izumi Qianyu didn't know what he was thinking of, and his expression became a little subtle.

But soon, the expression on her face returned to normal.

"Then Tsuruoka Hachimangu Shrine!"

"Let's go, Miyako."

Saying this, Izumi Qianha wanted to go directly to the Tsurugaoka Hachiman Palace that Miyako mentioned.

Seeing this, Miyako quickly followed. Because it was Miyako's first time visiting Kamakura, Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine was not as clear-cut as the Great Buddha of Kamakura.

Therefore, the two finally found their destination by relying on map navigation on their mobile phones.

"Is this Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine?"

Looking at the scene in front of him, Quan Qianyu's words were not as harsh as before.

"Looks pretty good!"

Seeing Izumi Qianyu seemed satisfied, Miyako also breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, the two passed by the shrine's torii gate and long steps and arrived at the main hall of Tsuruoka Hachimangu Shrine.

Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine is a shrine located in Kamakura City, Kanagawa Prefecture, also known as Kamakura Hachimangu Shrine.

Founded in the 6th year of Kanghei's reign (1063), it is one of Neon's oldest shrines. Its main shrine (upper palace) and Wakanomiya (lower palace) have been designated as important cultural properties of Neon.

After Minamoto no Yoriyoshi conquered Oshu, he made a request to Ishikimizu Hachimangu Shrine in Kyoto Prefecture in 1063, striving to establish Hachimangu Shrine in Kamakura City.

In 1180, Minamoto no Yoritomo came to Kamakura. In order to pray for the prosperity of the Minamoto family, the shrine was moved to its current location, called Tsurugaoka Wakanomiya. The Hachiman God became the patron saint of the Minamotoji. In 1191, the Hachimangu Shrine burned down, and the shogunate was in Wakanomiya. The main palace was built on the mountain behind, and Wakanomiya was rebuilt. From then on, Hachimangami has been revered as the patron saint of the martial arts clan.

The above is the information that Miyako searched through her mobile phone.

However, Izumi Qianyu was not very interested in these, he just wanted to finish punching in and go back as soon as possible.

Entering the main hall of Tsuruoka Hachimangu Shrine, you can see the three gods enshrined in Tsuruoka Hachimangu Shrine. They are-Emperor Yingshen, Bisaishen, and Queen Shengong.

As for the fact that it is Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine, but it is not the God of Hachiman who is enshrined...

In fact, Emperor Ongami, Hidashigami, and Queen Shingo are known as the Three Gods of Hachiman.

The origin of the Hachiman God is said to come from Hikohuo Demizun, and it is generally regarded as coming from the three gods: Emperor Ogami, Hibigami, and Empress Jinko.

Miyako searched these from the Internet. Anyway, Izumi Qianyu didn't quite understand the relationship between them.

When he arrived in front of the three chief priests, Gongzi first stuffed a certain amount of money into the money box.

Then he came to the deity who should be the Queen of Divine Power and paid homage.

Although Izumi Qianyu was a little reluctant, she came and bowed like Miyako.

"Speak of it, Miyako."

After paying homage to the Queen of Divine Skills, Quan Qianyu suddenly spoke.

"If we worship the gods, will the gods really bless us?"

".........I don't know..."

She didn't expect that Izumi Qianyu would suddenly ask such a question. Miyako thought for a while and finally could only give a somewhat uncertain answer.

"That means you can't, right?"

"After all, there are so many people visiting every day, and the gods can't bless them."

No, maybe the power of gods is beyond our imagination?

After listening to Izumi Qianyu, Miyako couldn't help but think so in her heart.

However, Miyako thought that Izumi Qianyu seemed to be a witch and should have more say than her in such mysterious matters, so she did not express her thoughts.

"so,"

Quan Qianyu finally came to a conclusion.

"The act of worshiping a god is completely meaningless."

She turned around and said to Miyako.

"Instead of worshiping the gods, you might as well worship me."

"I can even make you look cute!"

Chapter 42: Two people’s wishes

"………………"

After listening to Izumi Qianyu's words, Miyako felt slightly ashamed.

Such utilitarian words......

Should I say that I really deserve to be Irena-chan?

However, worshiping gods itself is to seek peace of mind, not to gain anything.

Anyway, it doesn’t cost any money to believe me...

Thinking of this, Miyako suddenly remembered the gift she had just stuffed.

Well, it still costs some money.

Miyako herself is not a believer in gods, and her attitude towards gods is to believe in them as much as she can.

Seeing what Izumi Qianyu said, she gave up the idea of ​​continuing to worship and walked out of the main hall of the shrine with her.

"Speak of it, Irena-chan."

Looking at the silver-haired witch beside him, Miyako suddenly asked.

"Do gods...really exist?"

Miyako was originally an atheist, but because of Izumi Qianyu's existence, she was a little unsure.

After all, if witches exist, then the existence of gods is entirely possible, right?

Facing Miyako's question, Izumi Qianyu's answer was...

"…………I don't know either."

"Eh?"

The expression on Miyako's face was slightly stunned.

Miyako thought that Izumi Qianyu might give negative words, but she never thought that Izumi Qianyu would answer "I don't know."

"But,"

Miyako couldn't help but speak.

"Irena, aren't you a witch?"

"Why don't you know?"

"I am a witch. There seems to be no causal relationship between whether I know the existence of gods or not, right?"

Turning to look at Miyako, Quan Qianyu spread his hands and said so.

"But…………"

That being said, according to the plot in the manga, the witch is also a mysterious being.

You may not have come into contact with gods, but you shouldn’t even know whether gods exist, right?

Is it possible…………

Gongzi had a guess in her mind.

Could it be that the existence of gods is just a legend on the mysterious side, and it is impossible to determine whether they exist or not.

That’s why Izumi Qianyu answered “I don’t know?”

Thinking of this, before Miyako could speak, Izumi Qianyu's somewhat helpless voice suddenly sounded in her ears.

"I don't know what you are thinking, but the fact is definitely not what you think!"

"My power comes from something special."

Izumi Qianyu was originally just an ordinary person, and it was because of the dimensional role-playing system that he was able to possess Irena's magical power.

"Currently, I am just a fledgling witch. I have never seen an extraordinary existence other than myself."

"So, you have to ask me if gods really exist..."

"...I can only answer I don't know!"

"So...is that really what happened?"

Miyako didn't expect to get such an answer.

However, seeing that Izumi Qianyu seemed to really know nothing, Miyako did not continue to ask further questions.

"Eh? Miyako, what is that over there?"

The silver-haired witch lady beside him suddenly asked this question.

Miyako followed Izumi Qianyu's gaze and saw a big tree standing upright with many red ribbons hanging on it.

"that……"

Miyako almost didn't think much about it, because that thing was so recognizable.

"That should be the praying tree, right?"

"It is said that as long as you write your wishes on the prayer tape and hang it on the prayer tree, your wishes will come true!"

"It turns out to be a praying tree..."

In fact, even if Miyako didn't say anything, Izumi Qianyu had already guessed it. After all, the characteristics of this thing seemed too obvious.

"Then let's go over and make a wish!"

Quan Qianyu suddenly said this with great interest.

"Eh?"

Miyako was a little surprised when he heard this.

With Izumi Qianyu's character, I shouldn't say at this time - even if I hang it up, my wish will definitely not come true, so is this behavior completely meaningless?

However, seeing Izumi Qianyu's interested expression, Miyako was wise enough not to express her thoughts.

Then, the two of them went to the praying tree and bought two prayer ribbons from the witch.

Then, I bought a prayer tape, what wishes should I write down?

There are many wishes that Miyako can write, such as hoping that Hinata's academic performance will get better and better, that her mother will be in good health, and that Xiaohua can...

But, at this time, is that the only wish you want to make?

Miyako thought so, her cheeks flushed, and she secretly glanced at Izumi Qianyu.

Irena-chan is really cute. It would be great if I could stay at her house for a few more days.

I don’t want to be separated from her...

On the other side, Izumi Qianyu had no qualms about her desire to write.

Irena, Irena, will definitely be with the lovely Irena-chan forever!
