The town of Magrido was filled with people's screams.
Suddenly, as if to engulf the town, something like thick black mud came out of nowhere.
--BUSH~!
Naturally, the mud was blocked by Iguza's dome-shaped warding technique and did not enter the town, but the sheer volume of mud completely covered the warding technique itself, trapping the people in darkness.
Iguza-sama: ......
What on earth is going on?
Kaya, who had been working with everyone else on the recovery effort, looked up at the darkening sky with concern.
--I'm going to go to the airport.
There, the silver-white warding technique was constantly burning the mud, but it seemed to me that the momentum of the warding technique had become weaker than before, if only from the heart.
And.
--should!
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
Suddenly, a sound as if something cracked was heard, and the blood drained from people's faces.
Looking at it, the warding art covering the heavens was cracked in places, and it looked as if it might shatter at any moment.
At this rate, the warding art would eventually be broken, and that disgusting-looking mud would be pouring into the town.
If it was just mud, there would be no problem, but there was no way that the warding art, formed by the power of purification, could be broken by just a little mud.
If that is the case, it must be the "dirt" that we have heard about before.
And it was highly concentrated.
If they were to be engulfed by such a thing, everyone except for Kaya, who holds the Phoenix Seal, would not be safe.
I'm not sure how many people would be safe if they were swallowed by such a thing, except for Kaya who has the Phoenix Seal.
No, even Kaya, as I say, is not a .......
What's wrong with you, ......? Is there something wrong with you?"
She must have been concerned about Kaya, who was aghast and put her hand on her lower abdomen.
The man who is her grandfather and also the mayor of Magritte, called out to her in a concerned tone.
'No, no. ......
?"
To him, Kaya shook her head and said with a tremor in her voice.
The warmth of Iguza-sama that I could feel just a moment ago, that warmth of hers, is fading fast,.......
What in the world does that mean? Can it be that something has happened to the Savior?
I don't know. ...... But I feel that if I don't do anything, I will never see her again,......, not only her, but everyone who has gone to the battlefield,.......
The man slowly looked up at the warding art and said, "...... It is true that even the warding art that the savior has put up is beginning to show signs of breaking down. You must be dealing with a very powerful enemy,....... Then perhaps you are right. ......
"Oh, no. ....... Is there anything I can do to help ......?
I don't know. ...... I wish I could help you, but all we can do now is pray. ......
"Pray ......."
The actual "Prayer " is a word that comes to her mind when she is ruminating.
"'Miko kagura', Grandfather! I have heard of it before from your mother! Nowadays, miko kagura is just an entertainment at festivals, but originally, it was to deliver everyone's prayers to the gods and make them feel better!
I have certainly heard such a story. ...... But how on earth can we deliver our prayers? And even if our prayers are answered, how do we know that they will really help the Saviors?
Kaya shook her head at the man's words.
No, it will! It will! Because that is the true meaning of my birth here in Maglido and my encounter with her as a priestess!
The true meaning of ......?"
Yes. I am sure that everything was for this moment. I met her in this place, she received Ignifer-sama's power in front of me as a priestess, and I was embraced by her, and she engraved a "seal" on my body as my wife, all for this day and this time.
"......? Embraced by ......?
I will dance. The miko kagura is a dance to deliver the wishes, prayers, and thoughts of all the people to that person!
No, no, before that, I would like to ask you a few questions .......
The man seemed to be confused by the sudden confession, "So please get ready as soon as possible! The man who seemed to be puzzled by the sudden confession had no choice but to nod his head when Kaya said to him with a straight face, "Therefore, please get ready as soon as possible!
◇ ◇.
Kaya, dressed in the festival attire, stood on the hastily prepared stage and bowed to everyone.
She stood on the hastily arranged stage and bowed to everyone, "Thank you very much for accepting our urgent request. As you have heard from my grandfather, the Saviors are fighting a great evil with their lives, and they are probably in the most difficult situation. If things continue as they are, the world will be enveloped in eternal darkness, just as we are now."
......
But the Messiahs, of course, and we, the human race, will not give in to this great evil. Therefore, in order to fight together with them, I would like to deliver your wishes, prayers, and the power of your thoughts to the Saviors through the miko kagura music that has been passed down on this island. Therefore, please, please lend me your power!
The crowd cheered so loudly that it shook the earth.
Kaya was almost moved to tears by the people who cheered so loudly that it shook the earth.
Thank you, everyone at ......."
The first time I saw her, she was in the middle of a big party, and she was so excited.
The first thing that comes to mind is that the first time you see a person in the room is when you see them.
At that moment, silence enveloped the area, and while people were praying together, Kaya quietly chanted and began to dance the miko kagura.
--Shan.
--Shan.
--Shan.
And she pleaded in her heart.
(...... Can you hear my voice? (If you can hear me, please, please, please)
Of course, this is not just for the people of Maglid.
Kaya was trying her best to reach all the people who are facing this hardship.
(Please entrust your wishes, prayers, and thoughts to me, Kaya, the priestess of the volcanic island of Magrido. (Please entrust your wishes, prayers, and thoughts to me, Kaya, the priestess of Maglid, the volcano island, so that the saviors who are about to fall into the depths of darkness will regain the light once more. Please, please, please lend me your help.)
To be honest, there is no guarantee that this voice is reaching the people of the world.
She was not even sure if miko kagura could really gather the power of the people.
But even so, Kaya still believed.
Even if the warmth of the voice was about to break, as long as the phoenix seal was engraved on Kaya's body, the voice would surely reach the people in the warding art composed by Igusa's power.
And that the people who heard her voice would pray for them, and that the miko kagura would surely deliver their prayers to Igusa and his group.
Kaya believed this.
(Please, please, everyone. (Please, I beg you all, for this world to be filled with light and kindness again. Give strength to the saints who are still fighting for their lives. Goddesses who are still fighting for their lives. And please give your strength to the Savior ...... and to Iguza ......!)
