Chapter 38
After that little scene, Kusa absorbed the catfish's flesh and blood and bury the bones in the deep lake
She then started to play with the scarlet sisters and have a relaxing time before going back to the shrine
--------------------------------------------------------------
Kusa: I'm back!
Reimu: Welcome back!
Marisa: Kusa why are you late?!
Marisa can be seen laying on the floor reading a book while Reimu is eating oranges sitting on the floor
Kusa: I just visited the scarlet sisters
Marisa: I see
Kusa: well I'm going to evolve so I'll be gone for a little bit...
Marisa|Reimu: ehh?!
Kusa: What?
Marisa: why can't you evolve here?
Kusa: I need to go to the deepest part of the world to complete this process
Reimu: Are you going for long...?
Kusa: no, It's just very short maybe a day or two
Marisa:...
Marisa seems sour and her face can show her unwillingness written on it
Kusa: ohh... please don't pout I'm not going to be gone for a long time
Marisa: hmmph...
The door opened and shows Mokou
Mokou: I'm back
Kusa: Mokou welcome back!
Mokou: what happened?
Kusa: you see...
--------------
And now two people are pouting towards Kusa
Kusa: not you too
Reimu seems amused
Kusa: I promise I will be back...
They seemed to refuse to budge at their decisions
Kusa: *sigh*
Kusa kisses Marisa and Mokou making them allow her but that makes Reimu jealous so she kisses Reimu too
Marisa: If you don't be back in two days I'll make sure to pour all my love towards you!
Marisa hugs Kusa tightly
Mokou: While I will make sure to burn you till you die!
Mokou hugs Kusa too
Reimu: I'll make sure they won't chaos much
Kusa pats Reimu's head even though they have the same height
Kusa: I'm reassured with that
Kusa: well I'm off!
Kusa turns into green lights and goes down to the ground leaving a sapling
--------------------------------------------------------------
Kusa is inside the core of the earth and now absorbing the heat and the essence of the world
Her appearance started to change
Meanwhile On the surface of the Hakurei shrine
The two girls seems in despair while the shrine maiden just shook her head
Reimu: a day hasn't passed and look at yourself
Reimu: she will be back before you know it
Reimu: so stop despairing and start moving!
Marisa perks up and her colour seems to start returning
Marisa: I guess...
Mokou: you are right...
Reimu: Now let's cook and be happy and wait for her to return
Marisa|Mokou: Yes!
--------------------------------------------------------------
It's been two days and the three girls seem not in their best state
Marisa: she still isn't here...
Mokou: Did something happen to her?
Reimu: I'm sure she will come back! She promised after all
Kusa: Surprise!!!
It's a girl that has light green hair with brown on the bottom, has an ahoge on the top resembling a blade of grass, a white flower wreath surrounding the ahoge, yellow eyes, a yellow dress and skirt that has a brown leather corset belt
>>>>>>>>>>>><<<<<<<<<<<<
▪︎Kusa - can control plants and suns▪︎
They were all shocked and looked surprised
Kusa: Huh? Does it seem no one likes my new appearance?
All: Kusa!!!
The three decided to jump towards Kusa
Kusa: Oi...!!!
Making them all fall to the ground and they all laughed together
--------------------------------------------------------------
Kusa with her new looks is just picking some flowers to make a bouquet while humming
When a gust of wind shakes her hair
Aya: ohhh... A new face!
Aya: pardon for the intrusion but can I take a picture with your bullets?
Kusa: (I should mess around with her...)
Kusa fell and the flowers she picks has poured out from the yokai
Kusa acts like an innocent girl getting cornered by a bad guy
Kusa: Please don't eat me...
Kusa mustered her voice to be soft as possible making Aya lose her composure
Aya: ehh?!!
Aya: wait!! I'm not here to hurt you at all! Why a human-like you here at the foot of the mountain! It's dangerous!!!
Kusa lets out fake tears and started sobbing
Aya: don't cry!!!
Aya seems lost about what she will do and decided to forcefully return the human before the yokai that eats humans will appear
Aya approaches the human slowly making the human move back and covering her face with a basket her body seems to shake
Kusa: Hahahahahaha!
Until a burst of familiar laughter can be heard
Aya: Kusa???!!!
The human put down her basket revealing the weak maiden laughing at the tengu's dilemma
Aya: Ehh...? Are you Kusa?
Kusa: Of course!
Roots picked up the flowers and put them in the basket in a neat manner
Kusa: thanks plants!
The grasses glow vibrantly it seems they've become more healthy
Aya: ehh?!!! How?!!!
Kusa: I am a god now
Aya's Brain seems to experience a short-circuit
Kusa: It seems I broke her...
Kusa: if I remember there are 8 million gods in this world... so gods are common if you know where to find them
Kusa snaps her fingers and it seems Aya gained clarity
Aya: please tell me it's a joke...
Kusa: Nope!
Aya: I don't know what to feel about it...
Kusa: Eirin, Minoriko, Shizuha, Hina, Sanae, Kanako, and Suwako are gods you know?
Aya: but...
Kusa: just loosen up Heck you aren't afraid of a thousand-year-old god and fight them... so that's why treat me like you do
Aya: fine...
Kusa: you want to take a picture of my bullets right?
Aya looks at the side not looking Kusa in the eyes and seems to sweat
Kusa: ready or not here I go!
Aya: !!!
What greeted her is an array of colourful bullets
Aya doges the bullets and flower-patterned red bullets started to appear
She captured it with her camera whilst making sure to not get hit by Kusa's slow-moving projectiles
Kusa aims her left hand and a spiral of crimson bullets appear like a flower newly blooming
Seeing Aya capture it with her camera she decided to have fun messing around with her and to make sure to apply pressure so she won't have the chance to take a picture
Green orbs start to appear and violet orbs start to merge with the green orbs making them explode like a frosted explosion (Its a type of grass)
==================================
Unlike in the past, she is connected to the world meant she will continue to shine brightly until the world will be destroyed by something
Infinite energy so her low mode will not appear anymore but she is still mischievous without that mode
(Of course, she can still become tiny)
