The maiden in white clothes and scarlet hakama led a waist-length black-haired boy on a journey to Ise City, and introduced things related to Ise Shrine in soft words.

"Ise Jingu Shrine is mainly composed of the Inner Palace Imperial Palace and the Outer Palace Fengshou Daijingu. The inner palace is dedicated to Amaterasu Daigogami, and the Outer Palace is dedicated to Fengshou Daishen. In addition, there are other palaces, Shesha, Moshe, and Suoguansha, etc. A series of shrines, also collectively called shrines, are commonly known as Ise Shrine 120 Five Shrines. Usually, the "shrine" refers to the "inner palace". Except for the inner palace and outer palace, the witches in other shrines to which Ise belongs There is no qualification to call herself a "princess of Ise Shrine". Only the best and most talented girls can enter the shrine to practice. In the past, Chitose Hime was selected into the shrine from the other shrine, and she was in the shrine three times. Serving as the priest during the sacrificial offering..."

The witch turned her head and smiled comfortingly at the slightly embarrassed young man behind her, her eyes were gentle and tolerant.

"I believe that Jingzi will definitely live up to our expectations."

The young man smiled a little reluctantly, he hesitated for a while before speaking.

"……I will work hard."

The self-proclaimed "I" is not the one commonly used by boys, but the one used by girls, and the speed of this sentence is slower than the usual speed, which is more calm and elegant.If he hadn't known the boy's gender long ago, just looking at his appearance and hearing such words, he would probably have mistaken him for a girl.

The witch nodded in satisfaction.

"Very good. If you want to maintain this habit, you must not say rude words. Your voice has not changed yet, and it sounds a little lower now. As long as you pay more attention, you will not be found out that you are a boy."

The corners of the teenager's mouth and eyes twitched.

"You won't be found out that you're a boy" - this sentence is definitely not a compliment, is it? !

He began to wonder if it was right for him to come to Ise Shrine to ask for help, maybe it's better to give up and insist on going to the emperor's school to learn Yin Yang art?Anyway, at least Huang Yimen won't let him pretend to be a girl!

The glamorous witch didn't seem to notice the boy's embarrassment, or she just pretended not to know, looked at the boy with sincere concern, and continued to make suggestions.

"It's not impossible to use magic to disguise your appearance, but leaving the magic power behind will be suspicious. Once it is exposed, it will only cause worse results. Fortunately, Kyoko's appearance is very good, as long as she uses a little makeup to modify her face It would be nice to make it softer. Because you don’t know when your voice will change, it’s best for Kyoko to talk less, so that even if the voice changes a little, everyone won’t notice—it’d be great if you can keep the current voice. When you say inappropriate words, you must think carefully before speaking."

The boy was speechless.

This is good, don't talk about talking in a girl's tone, this is just to make him dumb, right?

Silence is golden, what a mistake to say.

Probably because the boy's mood was too directly displayed on his face, the Miko couldn't help but sighed.

"That can't be done."

The boy looked back suspiciously.

The beautiful priestess stared at the boy with a worried expression, and sighed.

"Just now, Kyoko complained in her heart, right? The expression is obvious?"

The boy's eyes widened in astonishment.

"Is it okay to complain in your heart?"

Do you want to be so overbearing? !

You can't say it with your mouth, but you can't think about it in your heart?Too cruel!

"That's right, it's not okay to complain in your heart." The witch glanced at the sky meaningfully, "Kyoko, you have to understand that the witch is an existence that serves the gods, and she must serve the gods with a pure heart and wholeheartedly. Complaining and cursing are not allowed. The gods... are omniscient..."

She pointed to the boy's heart, her eyes were clear and bright.

"Whether it is the words you say or the thoughts you hide here, you have no secrets in front of the gods. Once you are aware of the negative thoughts in your heart, you are likely to face the wrath of the gods... Maybe the gods will not Because your sincere prayers bless you, but many gods will angrily send down divine punishment because of human offences, this is the reason why witches must be pure and pure..."

In an instant, countless indecent words galloped past the young man's heart like a runaway horse.

"... Heh, heh heh... Heh heh heh..."

The witch looked at the boy's expression and let out another long sigh.

"Jingzi, this is not alarmist... The favor and dislike of gods are very unpredictable. You don't know when you will be blessed, and you don't know when the gods will abandon you, but at least you can't offend the gods consciously. To the gods It is said that the biggest offense is 'deception'. If you have extraordinary power, even if you kill Gao Tianyuan, you may not offend all the gods, but if you 'deceive' the gods, then you are likely to invite divine punishment. 'Conceal' , 'deception', 'betrayal', these are all things that gods cannot tolerate. Moreover, even if they are not gods, among humans and ghosts, there are existences that can penetrate the soul and perceive the true meaning. Say what you think, and never disagree with what you say—of course, it would be better if you could always maintain a pure and gentle heart."

The boy said "hehe" again.

He didn't know what else to say besides "hehe".

Miko or something, it's really more ruthless than pyramid schemes...

I can’t even say it, I can’t even think about it—too bad, I still can’t help but slander...

The more I think about not thinking too much, the more my thinking goes off track, what should I do...

The witch smiled helplessly.

"A priestess is definitely not just sitting quietly and praying. It's not that easy... To become an excellent priestess, you must pass rigorous training. The best priestess must pass all 72 kinds of trials. Body and mind, so that the body can withstand the presence of the gods, and the mind is strong enough to be noble and pure."

The boy stayed for a few seconds before repeating in a daze: "... 72 trials..."

The witch nodded with a smile.

"Yes, from the simplest sitting upright to the most difficult trial of the underworld, including various trials of honing the body, exercising the five senses, inquiring wisdom, and torturing the soul, there are a total of 72 trials for the witches. Even In the shrine, there are only a handful of shrine maidens who can pass 72 kinds of trials. 'Chitose Hime' passed all the trials when she was 16 years old, and Kyoko who inherited that kind of blood must be able to complete these trials."

Facing Miko's expectant and trusting eyes, the boy smiled even more awkwardly.

He deeply realized that it was definitely a mistake for him to leave Kyoto for Mie County—his life seemed to have completely taken a strange fork in the road.

The witch suddenly stretched out her hand, and lightly touched the boy's cheek.

"Jingzi, this kind of smile is not good. It should be softer and more compassionate, as gentle as water, but it should not be flattering. It should show sincerity in the most natural posture while maintaining a proper sense of distance."

The boy's smile froze on his face.

"Practice a few more times, and you will grasp the main points. Always remember that you are a priestess, the representative of gods in the world. Mistresses are different from ordinary people. You must be able to make them look up to you and not be too afraid of you and respect you At the same time, I will not follow you too blindly, trust you and at the same time will not have intimacy because of being too close, master this 'degree', and you will understand how to face the public and how to present yourself."

"..."

The boy couldn't even "haha" come out.

He felt his future was dark.

You can't say it, you can't think it, you have to be careful when you laugh-this day is impossible! ! !

The witch looked at the boy with loving and expectant eyes, as if she saw something else through him.

"You have the most outstanding talent as a miko that I have ever seen in my life."

The boy felt like he was going to suffocate when he heard this sentence full of slots.

"..."

"As a priestess, you should dress plainly, speak and act elegantly, and have a noble heart—"

"..."

"You have to be one with your body and mind, you have to worship the gods, you have to be compassionate, and you have to be unafraid of hardships and dangers."

"..."

"I believe that you will definitely become the greatest witch of this century!"

Shiina Kyo, who had been placed with such high hopes, could not wait to scream three times at the sky.

I'm a boy, why do I want to be the strongest shrine maiden? !

In order not to be told what to say by various guides as soon as he opened his mouth, Shiina Kyo had given up expressing his dissatisfaction with words. After he habitually slandered a few words, he suddenly remembered—it seems that even slander is not allowed now...

What should we do at this time?

Just smile.

Shiina Kyo numbly imitated Saigong's posture and smiled, and then got a compliment, but he felt his knee hurt even more.

Saikiya of Ise is undoubtedly a very good shrine maiden. She patiently taught Shiina Kyo the qualities that an excellent shrine maiden should have, and tirelessly corrected those inappropriate postures and small movements on his body. When the two returned to Ise Shijingomiya, from the outside, Shiina Kyo is already an impeccable lady.

The shrine was in order, the older priestesses taught the young apprentice priestesses, and the return of Zhaigu did not cause any panic. Everyone only saluted respectfully when they met Zhaigu, and also greeted the new ones together. Companions are welcome.

Shiina Kyo walked numbly past one after another of girls who called her "Kyoko" gently or cheerfully, and changed into a priestess costume with an almost self-defeating mentality-white clothes and scarlet hakama.

When he looked at himself in the mirror for a few seconds, he thought he was going crazy.

This sense of confusion became more intense after Zhai Gong kindly helped him put on some makeup and lipstick.

Saigong led Shiinakyo to a pool below the waterfall, and said with a smile, "I think Chitose Hime's child should start with a little more difficult training, right?"

Shiina Kyo looked back suspiciously.

Zhai Gong pointed to the two palm-sized wooden boards by the pool, and smiled softly.

"Kyoko, try to sit on the board on your knees and try to keep your balance as best you can."

Shiina Kyo's face turned green all of a sudden.

He looked at the wooden boards, gestured the size with his palm, looked back at Zhai Gong, under the impeccable smile of the other party, he had to move to the edge of the pool, and tried to kneel on the two wooden boards.

A few seconds later, with a crash, Shiina Kyo sank into the water.

Saimiya shook his head with a regretful smile.

"You have to wait until you can stand still for an hour before you pass."

After finishing speaking, Zhai Gong left gracefully.

After more than ten seconds, Shiina Jing struggled to climb to the shore amidst the sound of rushing water, and coughed for a long time before he finished coughing up the water. He looked back at the two templates floating around, with a bitter face. He continued to try to sit on his knees, and then sank into the water again just standing on the plank.

In this way, Shiina Kyo began her first day of training as a shrine maiden.

Incidentally, Shiina Kyo didn't eat dinner at all on the first day because she was full...
