I Created the Myth of the Old Ruler

Had a dream.

In the dream, there is no filth, no shrine, no witch.

I live in a city full of high-rise buildings, leading an ordinary life. I need to go to a place called "school" to receive education, and live a repetitive and fun life with my friends.

In that world, you don't need to face monsters, get involved in those disputes, or be polluted by the world.

But at this time, a voice sounded in his ears.

"You are Kohaku, the strongest miko in the world. You must be a priest for the sake of the common people in the world. Only you can save them."

This voice is a mixture of old, young, immature, sighing, expectation and helplessness.

This voice comes from family, from mentors, and from myself.

Since childhood, I have used this reason to tell myself to stick to it.

Only he can save the world, so no matter how painful the practice is, no matter how serious the backlash caused by the spirit of words is, he will not give up.

Because this is something only you can do.

However, perhaps in this situation, in such a near-death situation, she hesitated.

There was retreat and the thought of giving up.

If I keep sinking like this...will I be able to go to that world that is painless, mediocre and monotonous, but full of hope and happiness?

Exhaling like this, the cold, salty sea water mixed with the smell of blood flowed into his throat and lungs, completely sinking into the gap.

A force gripped her wrist tightly.

Immediately, the power pulled Amber out of the sea.

"puff--"

The instinct of survival caused Amber to vomit out the seawater, and her unsatisfactory body began to use healing spells to repair all traces of pollution and necrosis caused by drowning.

Even death is not that easy for a miko.

When Amber sighed, he had already been thrown onto a wooden board.

"This is going to be a bit troublesome."

Amber heard a familiar voice. She turned her head and saw that it was the man from before, whose name was... Lu Jian?

"All the ships were destroyed, I should be lucky to at least escape?"

Lu Jian glanced at Amber lying on the broken planks of the hull of an unknown ship.

"You better hold on tight."

"What?"

Before Kohaku could react, Lu Tanzania manifested [Last Words] and fired at the wooden board beneath him.

The wooden plank immediately began to move at an extremely high speed, riding the wind and waves, as if it was equipped with the most advanced engine.

Amber spit out some water and raised her head. Her wet hair stuck to the side of her face. The cold sea water was taking away her body temperature, but what she saw in front of her shocked her even more.

A huge tower stands above the sea.

The tall tower seemed to be made up of countless tentacles, constantly squirming and twisting. The black body seemed to be made of shadows. Anything that came into contact with it would be covered by darkness and merge into one.

On the sea around the tower, fragments of countless ships floated, but not a single body was seen.

When thinking of a certain possibility, Amber felt her body getting colder.

"Were they all eaten?"

Amber looked at the huge monster. He had never been as afraid of the world as he was now in his life.

"It looks like it's full, so we're lucky."

Lu Jian didn't tell her that he had given the thing ten rounds of bullets loaded with the ravings of the great being to keep it in its current condition.

On one side of the sea, a black thing suddenly emerged.

"Wait a moment."

Lu Tiao shouted, and the black thing immediately fell into the water.

Although Amber didn't have time to take a closer look, she could vaguely see at a glance that it was a mass of flesh, eyes, and tentacles.

The next moment, Laika, who turned into a corgi, jumped onto the high-speed moving board.

"...You didn't see anything just now, did you?"

Lu Tan asked.

"......of course not."

Amber chose to follow her heart.

On this sea, the only one he could rely on was Lu Jian.

When she confirmed this fact, she felt surprisingly relaxed for some reason.

Perhaps hidden in her heart, she has been looking forward to escaping from her duties and escaping from her duties as a miko due to such force majeure.

"Now there is good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"

Lu Tiao asked.

"bad news?"

Amber hugged her shoulders. Her clothes were already soaked. Silk clothes would stick to the skin once soaked in water and could not keep warm. She huddled up, her lips turned white, and she shivered.

Seeing this, Laika moved closer to Amber.

The water stains on its body disappeared without knowing when, leaving only the warm, furry touch.

Even though she seemed to have noticed Laika's secret just now, under the temptation of this warmth, Amber still chose to get close to Laika for warmth.

"Ouch!"

Laika rubbed herself into Amber's arms as if she was enjoying it very much.

"The bad news is that the boats are gone and we don't have a chart. Although I can move with this thing now, I don't know the way."

Lu Tiao glanced at the dog and said.

"What about the good news?"

Amber felt her body become slightly warmer, and she asked.

"The good news is there's no more bad news for now."

Lu Tiao smiled.

As for food, Laika can at least catch fish and replenish water through fish meat. They don't have to worry about starving to death for the time being.

The most critical issue is really navigation.

Lu Tiao could rely on this wooden board to take Amber to Hedao, but without knowing the path, he didn't know which way to go. He was lucky to be able to turn back and return to Narcissus Island. He was most afraid of rushing in directly. After falling into the sea of ​​ashes, even if Lu Tiao was fine, Amber might not survive.

"But I remembered to look at the chart before. There are some uninhabited islands nearby. If we are lucky, we can find one before dawn."

Lu Tan said.

"Why did you save me?"

Amber suddenly asked under the starlight in the sky.

"In this case, I will definitely not be able to get to Wajima Taisha Shrine, and I will not be able to become the officiating shrine maiden. Everything you and your partners pursue will be in vain. There is no need for you to save me, or even take advantage of me. It would be better to collect the bounties for those people."

She was curious.

Although Amber has hardly been out, she has read a lot of books and knows that hustle and bustle is beneficial. These mercenaries only protect themselves for profit, but now, she obviously does not have such high value.

"I will send you to Wajima Taisha Shrine and make you the officiating shrine maiden."

Lu Jian looked into the distance, looking for possible uninhabited islands.

"I said you can always trust me."
