episode_0050

After a long affair, I thought about the future while receiving the service of tengu who massaged my entire body.

The mountain of tengu belongs to the region called Iwapara Domain.

Iwapara Domain was an area made up of mountains and plateaus, and the tengu’s mountains were in the outermost part of the area.

The forest I was in was an area belonging to the Sukikawa clan, and humans and spirits were very prosperous.

Anyway, according to the memories of the tengu, there was a village not far from here where the Burakumin who had been driven out of the Sukikawa clan lived together.

This village was a favorite place for youkai, and it was right that they were raised by the tengu, the most powerful force in the area…

‘There is a spirit dwelling there. why?’

The reason why burakkumin is called burakkumin.

Originally, village meant a place where gods did not reside,

Its members, the Burakkumin, either leave the village or live together among themselves to avoid being eaten by monsters in the new century when they were banished from the village as punishment by the gods.

These Burakku people are a people who regard even the spirits as unclean and stigmatize them as blasphemous, so even those who have newly become spirits accept people from surrounding villages and build villages…

“Is it because of faith?”

It is common sense that spiritual training requires faith.

It was understandable if he had settled in the village without the knowledge of other spirits in order to gather more faith.

“Hmm…”

A deity who lives alone in the mountains, and moreover, receives the faith of Burakkumin and becomes frustrated.

If you are attacked by me in the village, you will have no where to complain.

“I need to eat that spirit.”

You can’t miss this opportunity.

It was time to gain insight into what a divine spirit is and gain knowledge about it.

I finished the massage and put my suit back on.

Glasses was too uncomfortable for battle, so he was put into subspace and crossed the mountain using two subordinate tengu as attendants.

[floating, flight]

Using magic, a village was visible when looking down from high in the sky.

At first glance, it seems like a peaceful town.

However, half of the residents there had a triangle-shaped brand on their faces. It is a token of the Burakumin people who were expelled from the village as a punishment.

‘The population is 300… It’s a level that even gods would covet.’

According to the memories of the tengu, the average number of people led by ordinary spirits was 200, so it could be said to be a large village.

A crazy world with 200 people and B-class power.

There were monsters everywhere, but there was a reason they couldn’t use their energy.

Anyway, as the tengu and I were looking down at the village from above, a reaction occurred.

A fox fire that appears surrounding the village.

What this village revered was a spirit from Yoho (妖狐).

“Let’s go down.”

“Yes!”

A one-sided dogfight in the sky isn’t bad, but it’s too noticeable.

When the tengu and I came down to the ground near the village, fox fires appeared nearby, coalesced, and a human figure came out.

A tall beauty with fox ears sticking out from her white head.

“This is the area protected by me, Inarikami, the God of Grazing! Monsters, go away!”

With those words, the mighty Yeongwi pressed down on the surroundings.

The tengu had a hard time breathing under the pressure of the spirit.

“Amazing. Is this the power of a divine spirit?”

It became difficult for even me to move my body due to the pressure of both material and spiritual pressure.

The pressure on the body is not a big deal, but the pressure on the soul is a completely different story.

But that didn’t mean resistance was impossible.

Demonic energy and blood magical energy circulate through the body, dispelling the pressure of the spirit.

As if sensing my power, the fox spirit also hardened his face and spoke.

“Who are you? Why is a strong person like you targeting people?”

“There is a misunderstanding. What I’m aiming for is you.”

“Me?”

“To experience the spirit before becoming a spirit.”

“Just for that reason…”

The fox spirit looked distraught at the sudden enemy.

Since my goal was to suppress, I decided not to use my sword this time and entered into battle.

Yeommayeomdong 念魔魔念動

Telekinesis and demonic energy combine to become the power to erode the world and wield it at will.

In the torrent of such power, the fox spirit turns into a flame and scatters to avoid it.

‘illusion? No, the flame itself is the body.’

The fireworks collide with my demonic mind movement and form a sharp collision.

As the competition continued for a while, with my Enma flame eroding the fox fire and the fox fire burning my Enma flame, I added will to my supernatural power.

Then, Enma Yantong turned into sword energy and tore apart the fox fire.

Flames scattering and melting into the air.

As I watched it vanish in vain, I realized that the flame was not the original body.

No, it was the main body up to the middle, but it was replaced!

‘Where is the real one? Breathe!!’

The fox spirit materialized as a huge fox near me and swung its claws.

I used my extra senses and pure physical ability to avoid it and measure the level of the divine spirit.

‘The spirit itself assists the output of yogi energy. ‘It’s not at the level of an ordinary B grade.’

To be honest, he is slightly stronger than Maguel or at a similar level.

As a divine spirit, it has B-level power, and as a youkai, it has B-level power.

My martial arts skills are still at the peak level, and my superpowers are Class A, but I specialize in extrasensory senses, which are non-combat types.

The overwhelming level of destruction is difficult.

So I decided to add some magic.

[Slow down, weaken]

The spirit that was about to swing its claws at me noticeably slowed down.

As the spirit shouted, I saw the spirit surge and destroy the weakening spell, but by that time, my demon statue had already completed all preparations.

[Redemption, chains]

[penetration, wedge]

[thorns, shackles]

Chains wrap around the body, spikes pierce the body, and thorns bind the feet.

The fox spirit spouted fox fire and resisted as much as possible, but was completely subdued by the flame that returned to its original position.

“Crrrm… Who is it? Who sent you? Are you coming? Mizuchi?”

“You have severe delusions.”

The fox spirit seemed to regard me as someone sent by someone.

“Yugen! Are you okay?”

The tengu who had been excluded from the battle now come to the side and ask how they are.

“I’m fine. You must prevent anyone from the village from coming.”

“Please leave it to me!”

I walked up to the fox spirit and raised my hand.

“Now, you are mine now…”

My Babel penetrated the spirit of the spirit.

The spirit assimilated by Babel.

Babel, who has become more powerful after rising to the A level, takes control of her mind.

The brainwashing proceeded more easily than that of Anthony, the Class B psychic who had previously attempted to take over.

“Hmm?”

However, I noticed that the brainwashing did not come to a complete conclusion and was antagonistic.

“This resistance is… the soul!”

The soul was the source and existence.

Therefore, a sufficiently developed spiritual ability can be restored even if the mind and body are deteriorated, as long as the soul is intact.

In this situation, the mind was completely subordinated to me, but the soul was resisting this and trying to return the mind to its original state.

‘If the lowest level spirit is like this, the higher level spirit will be resurrected even if the body dies.’

I realized the scary thing about spirits. And I was excited to think that I would gain that ability.

“But even if the soul resists, Babel’s connection is constant. Moreover, the mind is already completely in my hands, and the soul is also influenced by the mind, so a subordinate state will be the default.”

No matter how good the elasticity and resilience are, if a steady force is applied, it will remain in that state.

I manipulated the spirit of the spirit possessed by Babel as I pleased, then withdrew my magic and the magic power and freed the fox spirit, Inari.

“Ah… master…?”

As expected, the mental manipulation was successful.

But I couldn’t let my guard down, so I had to stay by and watch for a while.

“Inari, go back inside the village and reassure the people. And…”

I gave instructions to the fox spirit, Inari, and retreated near the village.

Inari returned to the village and calmed down the commotion.

I took a moment to organize the information I gained this time.

To become a divine spirit, a divine name was needed.

The name of God is a terminal that symbolizes existence and a link to other beings. Without it, one could not gather faith and raise one’s spiritual status.

And this divine name cannot be created by oneself.

At least, as far as Inari knew, this was because Inari also received a name that had already been created by the central god, Cheonjinshin.

‘This act is similar to the imperial court giving a government post.’

The spirits were divided into Gukjinshin (国津神) and Cheonjinshin (天津神).

Gukjinshin (国津神) is an earthly deity that monsters and ghosts receive from Cheonjinshin.

Cheonjinshins are those who are gods at birth.

In order for me to become a god, I needed to come into contact with the heavenly spirit.

After thinking about this, I tried to create a new name for myself.

Anyway, this divine name exists because someone created it.

Besides, I had already made and learned martial arts and magic on my own, so I felt confident that I could do it this time too.

Even if it doesn’t work out, you can just download the divine name later.

So, after sending the tengu back to their original village, I returned to Earth for a while and entered the village of the Burakumin.

” Devotees, this is Yugen-nim, whom we have come to worship as a guest deity (a term referring to a deity who is not the main deity of the shrine but is also worshiped).”

As instructed in advance, Inari gathered people and introduced me.

“Yes? Inari, what do you mean all of a sudden?”

Inari’s shaman is embarrassed by the sudden words.

I was surprised to hear that the god who had suddenly gone out to intercept the invading monster changed his attitude and invited me, who I did not even know who I was, to the shrine as an equal.

For reference, shamans were the confidants of gods and the highest class among humans in this world.

Other villagers also became agitated when they heard that they worshiped me as a god, even though they had no idea about me.

So I stepped forward and spoke to calm the controversy.

“I am Yugen. At Inari’s request, I have come to take care of you.”

Then he stretched out his hand and took out fifty bags of rice from subspace that had been filled from Earth.

As heavy piles of rice hit the ground and continued to fall on top of them, the fibers of the bag burst due to the impact, causing the rice grains to splatter here and there.

The Burakumin looked like they had witnessed a miracle when they saw me creating rice out of thin air.

“Rice in the air!!”

“This can’t be right… He is the god of farming…!

“Are you really giving this to us?!”

I nodded.
