章節 779: Nagarekawa Tour 2
"Please try this Tanuki Cake!" Yukari said with excitement. She wanted to show them the wonderfulness of this town.
"Tanuki Cake?" Yuuki and Uomi looked at the cake in front of them.
Tanuki or Japanese raccoon dog is a special animal in this country since there is a lot of Deity or Youkai who had features resembling this animal.
Yuuki was also quite curious why there were a lot of deities and each of the temples in this country had their own deities, even the Buddhist temples also had a lot of deities even though they were different from Shinto temples. He started to wonder what kind of deity that was residing in that small temple that he had seen on the side of the canal.
Yuuki had to admit that the most popular religion in this world was either Catholic since there were a lot of churches in this world, especially for the people who lived in Europe since that place wasn't exactly peaceful since there were a lot of supernatural incidents in that place.
Vampire, werewolf, stray devil, and a lot of things that were harmful to humans, the church warrior or an exorcise were dispatched to slay them.
Different from Youkai in this country who could live in harmony with a human. The supernatural being such a vampire would be harmful to humans unless they decided to buy a blood bag rather than steal a human for their blood.
Yuuki thought that a peaceful world was nice since he could spend his time flirting with his girls rather than fighting.
"How is it?" Yukari asked their opinion.
Yuuki and Uomi took their forks and ate the cake immediately without even caring about the cute image of the cake. Both of them started to chew the cake and nodded, "It is good."
"..." Yukari twitched her lips and wondered how they didn't hesitate to eat these cute cakes.
Yuuki felt that the cake was quite good since it wasn't only sweet but there was a slight bitterness that made it wasn't that sweet. He wasn't sure what to say but he couldn't say that it was too good but he couldn't say that it was bad either. His mouth was also quite dry after eating this cake.
"You sure eat a lot, you can have the rest," Uomi said
"....." Yuuki was speechless at her action but he had promised to eat the rest of the cake before. He ordered a lemon tea to accompany him while eating this cake. He looked at Yukari and asked, "Yukari, do you remember the small shrine near the canal?"
Yukari nodded, "Of course, even though that shrine is small, there are a lot of people who offer offerings or pray in that place."
"Hmm, is there something in that small shrine?" Uomi asked.
"Nothing, I just felt that a small shrine is a bit special," Yuuki said and asked, "What kind of deity is residing in that shrine?"
"It is Suijin," Yukari answered.
"Suijin?"
Yukari nodded, "In the past, there was a large flood in this area. I am not sure but the damage that has been caused by the flood is very big that made a lot of people die and lose their homes until suddenly there was a deity that was coming to them and controlled the flood making this town become normal again. The canal that is the source of disaster has become a very beautiful spot in this town..." She told them a lot of things about that small shrine since that place had a special place in everyone who had lived their entire life in this town.
"For such a big deity, the shrine sure is small," Uomi said.
"......"
"W - Well...." Yukari wasn't sure what to say since she also thought that shrine was too small.
"Well, that's quite normal for that shrine to have such a size and it is better than being forgotten by everyone in this town," Yuuki answered.
"Is that normal?" Yukari and Uomi were surprised.
Yuuki nodded, "Most of the big shrines have gotten their money from amulets, divination, sponsors, funerals, and a lot of other things. The shrine can become big because there is a priest who lives inside that shrine. When there isn't any priest or someone who manages that shrine, of course, the shrine will be abandoned. That is why I am a bit surprised even though that small shrine is very clean even though there isn't anyone who manages it. The locals sure love that place, right?"
"Yes!" Yukari nodded happily since he could understand it.
"So when the shrine has become big, it is because of the people who manage that place?" Uomi asked.
"Well, yeah, Deity wouldn't even think to manage their own shrine, if there is the one I am sure that place will be very crowded," Yuuki answered.
"Well, yeah, of course."
They wouldn't be that surprised by that kind of thing too since such a shrine would be bombarded by a lot of people who wanted to see a real deity.
"Also, such a famous shrine is being managed by a five big family, as a capitalist, you know what they will do to eliminate the small threat," Yuuki said.
"..." They were speechless this time.
Yuuki thought for a bit and ordered one more cake.
"You're going to eat more cake?" Yukari asked.
"Hmm, I want to offer it to the Deity in that small shrine," Yuuki said.
Uomi and Yukari nodded when they heard him.
They went out of the cake shop and went back to the small shrine near the canal.
Yuuki took out the cake from the box and placed it on the offering place inside the small shrine, "Please enjoy." He turned around and saw that Uomi and Yukari were praying together.
Uomi and Yukari had done and smiled at each other.
"I have prayed that we will be happy," Yukari smiled.
"Oh, I have prayed that we will have healthy children in the future," Uomi said while hugging his arm.
Yuuki had to admit that this girl was really loveable somehow. He was moved by instinct and kissed her lips, saying, "We will." He turned and saw that Yukari also looked at him with a desire.
Both of them looked at each other but it felt awkward to kiss each other after he had kissed Uomi.
"Just kiss each other already," Uomi said and pushed both of them closer.
Yuuki had someone supported him and kissed Yukari. He had been dreaming for this girl for a long time.
Yukari was also the same and happy that their interaction had reached this far.
They didn't stay in this place for too long and went back to her house.

Inside the small shrine, the tanuki cake that they brought was slowly eaten by something.
