Chapter 394 The Journey to Inari
Inari is just one stop away from Kyoto.
Ye Xiao and his group took the tram, and after a few swaying minutes, they soon arrived at Inari Station.
"Wow! Look, Asia, Irina, this shop sells really interesting things!"
Wow~ So many cute foxes!
"That's nice! How about buying some souvenirs here? Do you all have enough pocket money?"
"Mitsuri~ Miko~, I saw a dessert shop~ Let's go together."
"Huh!? Really? Let's go, let's go."
"Hey, don't wander off, Xiao. I'm going to keep an eye on them."
Not long after landing, the church trio and the gluttonous duo began to enjoy the atmosphere of the trip. Yotsuya Miko said goodbye to Ye Xiao and then caught up with the gluttonous duo.
Watching Asia and Yotsuya Miko leave, Ye Xiao couldn't help but smile.
They are what ordinary girls look like now.
"They're really lively," Kanae Butterfly said with a smile to Ye Xiao.
"Yes, that's how girls this age should be."
Ye Xiao nodded in agreement, and then looked at Kanae and said, "You don't have to stay here with me all the time. You can go out and have fun, and then buy some souvenirs for Shinobu and Kanae to take back."
Kanae nodded and then said, "Okay, I'll go buy some souvenirs. Akatsuki, you need to be careful too."
With that, Kanae Butterfly went to pick out souvenirs.
As Kanae left, Ye Xiao glanced toward a certain spot.
Sometimes...
It's really unpleasant to be spied on as soon as you land.
A figure wearing a tengu mask was secretly watching him.
Without even guessing, Ye Xiao knew it must have been arranged by that little brat Jiu Chong, or by some guy who acted on his own for safety reasons.
Just then, Erica and Liliana arrived at Ye Xiao's side.
Erica said calmly, "Your Majesty, there's something watching us nearby."
Liliana chimed in, "They have quite a few people, but their strength is no match for ours."
Ye Xiao gently waved her hand, indicating that they didn't need to be too nervous.
As a knight, it is right to be vigilant.
Moreover, with Yasaka captured, the host city here will inevitably pay attention to powerful individuals.
Moreover, this is a teaching trip, so it's time to relax and enjoy this rare travel time.
"We're not here to cause trouble, we're here for sightseeing."
Ye Xiao spoke gently, but then her tone shifted and her voice turned serious, "Of course, if anyone bothers you at this hour, I wouldn't mind planting them in the ground."
Erica and Liliana exchanged a glance, and they both saw a hint of relief in each other's eyes.
Alright, since our king has spoken, we shall obey his orders.
Erica smiled, then, to Liliana's surprise, stepped forward and kissed Ye Xiao on the corner of his mouth before stepping back.
"Well then, darling, let's go wander around."
"Of course, if the King encounters any trouble, just let us know immediately."
With that, Erica pulled Liliana away from there.
Looking at the two of them, Ye Xiao smiled helplessly.
These two really have worked hard.
It seems like they haven't had a proper rest since some time ago, always staying by my side.
Even though he didn't see them, Ye Xiao knew they were nearby.
After all, the wind will tell you everything.
"Xiao-chan~ How's this outfit?"
At this moment, Seraph arrived late.
Ye Xiao turned around and saw Seraph walking towards him wearing a kimono with cherry blossom patterns.
And her pigtails were taken down and tied up.
Of course, without this carefree personality, she would definitely be considered a great nagisa, but it must be said that Seraph's appearance has a unique charm.
Ye Xiao replied with a smile, "Pretty good. What? Planning to change your style?"
Seraphim laughed and said, "Of course we should do as the Romans do, especially since we're going out to have fun, so we should dress nicely."
Ye Xiao nodded. "Alright, then I'll trouble Miss Seraph to lead the way."
"Of course, I did my research beforehand."
Meanwhile, at Komao Academy.
Cangna sneezed while she was working.
For some reason, she felt a little unhappy.
... ... ... ...
Time passed little by little.
Ye Xiao and Seraph separated.
He came to the foot of Inari Mountain alone.
Look up at the mountaintop.
Sometimes there's an urge to climb mountains and reach the summit, because the real Inari Shrine is at the top.
As for those below the mountain...
Those were built to provide facilities for tourists.
Well then... let's go up the mountain to see Xiao Jiuchong and take a look at this scenery.
Ye Xiao started climbing the mountain.
Along the way, I met many tourists.
A gentle breeze blows, and the branches sway.
It's a great place to calm your mind.
Soon Ye Xiao arrived at a platform with shops and paths, but he headed towards a dark place.
Lift your leg and pass through.
Ye Xiao entered a place isolated by a barrier, where there was also a path leading to the top of the mountain.
Without hesitation, they continued climbing.
As for why they didn't just go up directly...
For some reason, Ye Xiao felt a desire to reach the summit as he climbed the mountain.
There were no major problems on the journey, and Ye Xiao soon arrived at the mountaintop.
The eye is just right, bringing a touch of warmth.
What comes into view is an old ancestral hall bearing the marks of history.
Looks like we've arrived at our destination.
sand----.
A gentle breeze rustled the trees, creating an eerily quiet scene.
Ye Xiao went up and looked at the ancestral hall.
There is a stone fox statue enshrined inside.
Ye Xiao wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt that the stone statue in front of him seemed to be afraid of him.
"interesting."
The aura emanating from the stone statue felt familiar.
That's right, it's the God of Disobedience.
This stone statue is the medium for summoning disobedient gods.
So... this must be Inari.
Furthermore, Inari is the son of Susanoo and Ōichihime, the daughter of Ōyamatsumi, and is the god of grains and harvests in Japanese mythology.
As for being afraid of oneself.
It seems that he defeated the rebellious god Susanoo.
Inari is the god of harvest.
Their combat capabilities were lacking, so Ye Xiao wasn't very interested.
Ye Xiao looked at the stone statue and said calmly, "Alright, don't be afraid. I won't kill you. I'm not interested in your power."
As the words fell, the trembling stone statue fell silent.
Hmm... I'm proud of being a loser.
Just then, a little girl's voice came from behind.
"Who...who are you! How did you get here!"
... ... ... ...
