The Calamity Beast is Strong? I Just Filled in the Stats Randomly!

153: Chapter 153 Saya’s SongFirst of all, Fang Xun wanted to clarify one thing: he was not a lolicon.

Of course, it was impossible for him to be a lolicon.

As for leaving his dear younger sisters to follow this Little Shrine Maiden, it had absolutely nothing to do with being a lolicon.

Besides, he had already told his younger sisters that he would be leaving for a while.

”Where are we going?”

On the way, Fang Xun looked at the Little Shrine Maiden leading the way and asked.

The young girl looked very full of Origin Qi, skipping along with her little ponytail swaying behind her head; she was extremely lively.

”We are going to see the Shrine Master,” the young girl said, turning back to glance at Fang Xun.

”Who is the Shrine Master?”

Fang Xun really didn’t know who the Shrine Master was.

”It’s our Imperial Princess,” the girl said with longing.

Imperial Princess?

Upon hearing this term, Fang Xun immediately thought of countless characters.

Innocent, wonderful, beautiful, kind, pure, cute, and wealthy.

She was the embodiment of perfection, the most flawless and noble existence in a gala game.

Fang Xun was already fantasizing.

This was also an essential part to savor in a gala game.

Thinking of this, Fang Xun was just about to rub his hands in anticipation.

Before long, the Little Shrine Maiden brought Fang Xun to a door that didn’t look particularly remarkable.

”The Shrine Master has finished bathing and is waiting for you, Lord God.”

Fang Xun: ”?!”

”So, I’m going in?”

Fang Xun felt a little nervous when he said this.

”Eh? Please come in, Lord God.”

”Then I’m going in.”

Fang Xun psyched himself up.

Then, he slowly pushed open the door.

As the door pushed open a bit, Fang Xun caught a faint scent of sandalwood.

A tranquil and distant aura wafted out from the room.

Smelling this scent, Fang Xun’s restless heart calmed down a little.

When Fang Xun truly walked into the room, he saw a person wearing a luxurious kimono, kneeling before a long table and bowing their head to whisk tea.

”Are you the Shrine Master?”

Fang Xun asked cautiously.

”Lord God, you really don’t need to call me ’Master’.”

She raised her head, revealing an aged face.

Fang Xun had walked closer by now and saw this face, which, while very elegant, was clearly at least eighty years old.

”I have disappointed your expectations, Lord God.” The Shrine Master chuckled and presented the whisked tea to Fang Xun with both hands.

Fang Xun took the tea and took a shallow sip.

Looking at Fang Xun, the Shrine Master said with some emotion:

”You possess such power, yet remain so humble. It is the good fortune of our Human Race.”

”Cough, cough, cough, cough, cough...”

Being praised like this so suddenly, Fang Xun almost lost his composure.

”You flatter me, Shrine Master.” Fang Xun waved his hand and said, ”What power? I just hope to protect the people around me.”

”Then, Lord God, would you be willing to protect another Sakurajima?” the Shrine Master asked with a hint of anticipation.

”Ah?”

This sudden question stunned Fang Xun.

Being able to protect Dongcheng City was already pretty good, he thought; adding a Sakurajima on top of that?

Seeing Fang Xun’s surprised expression, the Shrine Master immediately added:

”When you have the spare capacity, that is.”

”Sure, sure.” Seeing a way out, Fang Xun immediately took it.

”If I ever have the spare capacity, I’ll look after you all.”

The Shrine Master nodded and said, ”Lord God, are you just here to have fun this time in Sakurajima?”

”I suppose so.” Fang Xun didn’t have any other plans for the time being.

Upon hearing this, the Shrine Master suddenly threw out a very interesting piece of news.

”Lord God, did you like that other-dimensional fissure from last time? It’s a pity the Research Institute was damaged so severely; who knows when we’ll be able to start over.”

Speaking of this, the Shrine Master continued:

”However, that otherworldly crevice is not the only one controlled by our Shrine. Lord God, would you like to go see another otherworldly crevice? You should be able to tell that the monsters in each otherworldly crevice are almost completely different. The alliance of the Disaster Beast doesn’t begin within the other-dimensional fissure, but only after they walk out of it.”

”Each otherworldly crevice is independent, right?” Fang Xun answered without thinking.

”Yes.” The Shrine Master nodded. ”And the other otherworldly crevice currently under the control of the Shrine is quite interesting. I hope you will like it, Lord God.”

”You control so many otherworldly crevices; do you know where they come from?” Fang Xun asked with curiosity.

Logically speaking, nothing should appear out of thin air.

There must be some connection between these crevices.

Fang Xun thought of what he had seen in the previous crevice; there were also high-rise buildings, mountains, rivers, and seas.

If nothing unexpected happened, there should also be a type of creature there: humans.

But other than the Sakurajima people conducting research in the underground facilities built by Sakurajima, there was no sign of anyone else.

All that remained were ruins after ruins.

Where did the people in that otherworldly world go?

Were they all eaten by those mountain-like Disaster Beast?

”I don’t know.” The Shrine Master’s voice interrupted Fang Xun’s thoughts.

”Our exploration of this otherworldly world is limited to the vicinity of the exit of this otherworldly crevice. We lack the ability to delve any further. Moreover, most of our strength is occupied by that other-dimensional fissure near Heian-kyo. As for this otherworldly crevice in the hands of our Shrine, we only have the most preliminary understanding.”

”Then you think I’d be very interested?” Fang Xun asked, puzzled.

”You’ll know once you go, Lord God.” The Shrine Master kept him in suspense.

”Oh, never mind then.” Fang Xun immediately refused.

Last time he went to that other-dimensional fissure, because some idiots from the Onmyōryō wanted to mess with him, he almost returned too late and made Jiang Qin worry.

If something like that happened again and caused problems, it wouldn’t be good if Jiang Qin got angry.

Of course, Fang Xun wasn’t worried about his own safety; he was only worried about the time.

The Shrine Master looked at Fang Xun with some surprise; she hadn’t expected him to refuse so decisively.

Based on the information she had gathered, Fang Xun should have been quite adventurous.

”Alright then, Lord God.” Seeing that Fang Xun was unwilling, the Shrine Master could only say, ”We can revisit this whenever you become interested, Lord God.”

”So, what kind of place is it exactly?” Fang Xun asked, still somewhat curious.

Speaking of which, Fang Xun added, ”If you keep me in suspense, I’m going to get angry.”

Seeing Fang Xun say this, the Shrine Master had no choice but to say helplessly, ”Actually, I thought you would like it, Lord God; that place is very similar to a game you’ve played.”

”What game?”

”Song of Saya”

”Little sister, I’m going to stroll around Akihabara, don’t wait for me. Big brother is going to have a blast!”
