Ruled by the god Suwa Myojin, who is said to be the apex of the indigenous gods, the kingdom of Kuya, regardless of the countries on other continents, is indeed the largest gathering place of human beings in this far east. Because the power of Suwa Myojin is very strong, very powerful, enough to deter all the gods and monsters around it.

According to ancient legends, when humans worshipped the god Myojin Suwa, they would choose to sacrifice with a living person, no matter what the object of the sacrifice was. However, one day, the god Suwa suddenly issued an oracle prohibiting the sacrificial program of human sacrifice and using non-human beings for the sacrificial program instead.

Naturally, the humans who stopped sacrificing because of the oracle of the god Suwa were ecstatic, and the oracle that the god of Suwa would no longer use human sacrifice while still protecting humanity spread throughout the kingdom of Fuya.

"In this way, it is really very common to use human sacrifices to worship gods at present, and in the villages that I passed by before coming to the kingdom of Kuya, the faces of the villagers clearly showed stress and numbness, unlike here......"

After entering the area ruled by the Kingdom of Kuya, it was clear from the faces of ordinary people that his mental state was very different from that of the humans living outside of the Kingdom of Kuya. Humanity outside the kingdom of Tsuya continues to act according to the gods, and there is no freedom and no future, only constant labor, praying to the gods, and there is no hope at all. However, the people who survive in the kingdom of Tsuya show a love of life, and their eyes are bright and not human beings ruled by other gods, and some of them are only a pair of lifeless eyes.

"Although the high-level gods of the High Heaven Yuan God Department no longer need living sacrifices to maintain their divine power, the grassroots gods below are not much different from youkai. If it weren't for the status of the gods, I don't think their actions would be any different from youkai. ”

Regarding human sacrifice, this kind of situation is often encountered when Xun Xin is stationed in the world from which the Spartans are born. It's just that the people who perform human sacrifice in the human world are usually the cultists who exchange power with the demons and find it difficult to appear in public, and the poor people who are deceived by the devil's rhetoric and are willing to give their lives. But either way, they are in the minority, and they can only survive under the pressure of the church and the human government.

At the moment, the situation in the Far East is that humans are raised as domestic animals, the same as humans raise chickens and ducks, except that humans pay for faith. All humans survive under the control of gods or monsters, and their situation is even more desperate than the battle between humans and demons that Seeker has seen.

Unlike humans in the human world, they have the ability to surpass ordinary people in their bodies, and they have the potential to resist demons and angels. Although the human beings living in this world have the potential to gain power in the eyes of the heart, in the absence of the development of a human-specific training method, the combat power of the human race is currently only limited to those who are physically able to survive and are born with spiritual power.

Compared to the gods and youkai, humans are too small, but they are the necessary lifeforms for the continuation of the two races.

"Just as human beings plant grain in the spring and harvest it in the fall. Before the grains are ripe, humans need to devote considerable labor to care for these seedlings. And the relationship between the gods and humans is not much different from the relationship between humans and grains. The gods protect the humans under their rule, and what they gain is faith. ”

Grains cannot resist the humans who grow them, and humans cannot resist the gods who have power over humans. However, the situation in the kingdom of Tsuya is clearly different, and the humans living in this land do not feel that they are deliberately oppressed by the gods, but rather that humans and the gods have formed a deep bond with each other because of their beliefs. Human beings need the protection of the gods, and the gods need the faith of human beings, just like the symbiotic relationship that appears in the life of the natural world, and the relationship between the humans and the gods in the kingdom of Leakage is not the terror and oppression carried out by the Takamagaha gods. It is not for nothing that the indigenous gods are comparable to the main gods of the High Heaven Original God system in terms of strength in the territory they rule. The faith obtained from terror is much more solid and pure than the gods that humans actively trust, and the faith gained by the gods of the High Heaven Original God System is much more than the faith gained by the gods of the High Heaven Yuan God System.

The caravan loaded with goods was visibly lighter when it entered the area ruled by the Kingdom of Tsuya. Since the Suwa Myojin used to be the god of the most powerful in the Ya region, the restraint of the yokai in human records is much higher than that of the Takamahara god who is high up and chooses to retreat when in danger. Therefore, the humans who live in the kingdom of Suwa do not need to worry about being preyed on by youkai, so thanks to the kindness of the god of Suwa, the belief has increased due to the comparison with the humans outside the kingdom of the kingdom.

Xunxin and Amada Lin walked slowly to the bazaar formed by the arrival of the caravan in a small town with a population of up to 1,000 people. In the current era, it is naturally impossible for caravans to transport too strange goods, and the extreme east is due to the movement of continental plates, islands detached from larger continental plates, the lack of species, and the limitations of the times, so caravans usually carry corn with sand and gravel and salt extracted from the sea for sale.

Naturally, Xunxin has seen a lot of this kind of situation, so he doesn't have any surprise in it. However, it was rare for him to go on missions in other worlds, let alone to personally explore the development of civilization, but it was the first time that he had seen a primitive bazaar in the early days of human development.

Because of the threat of youkai, caravans did not visit the village very often, and the supplies they carried were necessities. Therefore, every time a caravan arrived in the town, the surrounding villages would receive news from the townspeople, and they would spontaneously rush to the size of more than 3,000 people.

"Although in the civilization you were born in, I'm afraid that the number of students in the university you attended will exceed this number even if there are 3,000 people. However, in the early stages of civilization, 3,000 people can be called a rare large-scale human settlement. ”

Amada Rin, who had been a little bored with the market with a capacity of more than 3,000 people, was reminded of his heart, and his lazy and lazy pretty face immediately became bright. After all, the goal of Amada Lin when he came to this world was to guide the development of civilization and make some achievements that would be praised and recognized by Xunxin. And the premise for the development of civilization,

The most important of these is the number of life in civilization, in other words, to increase the population as much as possible.

In order to delve deeper into the relationship between humans and the gods in this era, Amada Rin made a decision and chose to communicate with the humans in this region in person. However, when Amada Rin was about to lift the ability to have no sense of existence, he was pulled by the heart by his side.

"Lin-chan, you...... I don't know what you look like now, but will you be suspected of being a youkai? ”

When Amada Lin showed a puzzled look, Xunxin silently opened a light screen in front of his daughter...... (To be continued.) )
