Chapter 355 - Chapter 355: Lord Shura Anyakonsen-shou and the Great Serpent God of Watatsumi Were Old Friends!

"Regarding the shrine's location, I suggest placing it at Mouun Shrine. It is close to Sangonomiya, and it was originally a shrine dedicated to the Great Serpent God of Watatsumi. There is already a foundation there, so construction will be easier."

Lady Sangonomiya took the initiative to propose the site.

This was mainly because, according to what little Kokomi had said yesterday, Lord Shura Anyakonsen-shou should be quite satisfied with Mouun Shrine.

Moreover, Mouun Shrine was similar to the former residence of Watatsumi's Great Serpent God, which could also express Watatsumi Island's regard for Lord Shura Anyakonsen-shou.

PS: The Great Serpent God of Watatsumi was the great serpent Orobashi.

Little Eula subconsciously looked toward the old uncle. After all, when it came to the shrine's location, if the deity himself was present, it was better for the deity to decide.

"That place was, after all, the former shrine of the Great Serpent God of Watatsumi. If I move in directly, even if the Great Serpent God is very tolerant, he would inevitably have some thoughts."

The old uncle took out the book The Watatsumi Spirit Ritual That Even Abyss Mages Can Understand from his bosom and placed it on the meeting table.

"I need to go to Enkanomiya to handle the aftermath of the Great Serpent God of Watatsumi. Only after that is completed can I move into Mouun Shrine."

Lady Sangonomiya looked at Lord Shura Anyakonsen-shou with slight astonishment.

Lord Shura Anyakonsen-shou actually knew about the Watatsumi Spirit Ritual?

And he even intended to handle the Great Serpent God's aftermath…

Even she, Watatsumi Island's [Divine Priestess], did not know much about these records…

Could it be that Lord Shura Anyakonsen-shou really existed five hundred years ago? Were the rumors about the unclear relationship between Lord Shura Anyakonsen-shou and the Raiden Shogun actually true?

Then the rumors that Lord Shura Anyakonsen-shou had already been in Inazuma five hundred years ago were also true? It felt like he might even have had a good relationship with the Great Serpent God of Watatsumi, which was why he had returned today to handle his old friend's aftermath…

How should she put it? Last night, when her daughter little Kokomi told her that Lord Shura Anyakonsen-shou was essentially a gentle old uncle, she had felt that Lord Shura Anyakonsen-shou was quite humane.

But today, when discussing serious matters—especially the Great Serpent God's aftermath…

Lady Sangonomiya also realized that although Lord Shura Anyakonsen-shou was kind and approachable in private toward her daughter, he was in reality a deity recognized by the Raiden Shogun.

"The Watatsumi Spirit Ritual, according to the historical records passed down in our Sangonomiya, requires a brave warrior to go to Enkanomiya to obtain the Coral Jade Branch…"

Lady Sangonomiya flipped through the book The Watatsumi Spirit Ritual That Even Abyss Mages Can Understand provided by Lord Shura Anyakonsen-shou and discovered that the information inside was extremely detailed. In particular, it clearly explained the five seals within and the exact location of the Coral Jade Branch…

It was even more detailed than the ancient texts left behind by their own clan…!

Could her guess actually be correct?

Lord Shura Anyakonsen-shou and the Great Serpent God of Watatsumi were old friends!?

Lady Sangonomiya felt her hands trembling slightly.

"By the way, does Lord Shura Anyakonsen-shou know the cause of the Great Serpent God's death?"

Faced with this question, Lord Shura Anyakonsen-shou seemed to fall into recollection before finally answering.

"Inside Enkanomiya there exists Forbidden Knowledge. Orob… the Great Serpent God of Watatsumi accidentally learned of it, and therefore could only seek death. So all of you must also be careful. When the time comes to go to Enkanomiya to handle matters, only I can go alone."

Cid's original intention had been to tell the people of Watatsumi Island that the affairs of Enkanomiya were very dangerous, hoping that Watatsumi Island would cooperate in sealing it off.

But to the people of Watatsumi Island, the stimulation seemed a little too great.

He even knew the cause of their own god's death!

Lord Shura Anyakonsen-shou was definitely an old friend of the Great Serpent God of Watatsumi!
