Chapter 6 The Eternal Bliss Sect
After that, the wolf settled down in the town. Although everyone knew that he was a beggar in the town, no one dared to look down on him after that night.
During the three years, several more ghosts came to this town, but each time they were killed by Wolf holding the Kedge Ball and using the Divine Flying Snow.
After killing the second ghost, the wolf was shocked by the reward the light curtain gave him.
The ghost Buddha and the dilapidated temple. Yes, it was the dilapidated temple where the Buddha sculptor lived. Whenever the wolf got into big trouble outside, he would always return to the temple and drink with the Buddha sculptor.
He placed the temple in the bamboo forest outside the town, and explained to the old couple who took him in that this was an uninhabited temple he had accidentally found in the wild. The wolf then rarely returned to the town and lived in the temple for a long time, only going to the town to kill the evil spirits when they attacked at night.
However, in the subsequent few times of killing ghosts, the rewards given by the light curtain became much more normal, similar to the rewards for killing [Hundred Arms], either scattered beads or gourd seeds.
After three years, Wolf had collected four beads, formed them into a rosary at the Ghost Buddha in the temple, and offered them to the Ghost Buddha, in exchange for some health points, which increased his life bar and torso value a little.
The number of times the gourd can be used has also increased to four times.
With the killing of evil spirits over the past three years, the experience value has increased by four levels and gained four skill points.
I have unlocked the skills of Seeing Through and Bounce in the Air respectively, and I have one skill point left so I can save up more points to unlock other skills.
However, after three years of occasional use, there are only three opportunities left to use the Divine Flying Snow.
Back to the present, the wolf in the Buddhist hall of the dilapidated temple has become much stronger than it was three years ago. With the intake of high-quality food, the wolf is also much taller than when it was in Ashina.
Everything that he had experienced in the past three years flashed through his mind quickly. Coming back to his senses, Wolf carved the wood one cut at a time. After a few cuts, the shape of the Buddha statue had taken shape.
The carved wood chips flew away with one breath, and a lifelike Buddha statue appeared in the wolf's hand. The kind-looking expression made people feel as if they could really see the Buddha's light emerging from behind.
The reason why wolves can carve Buddha statues is that whenever they return to the temple to hide, they always watch the Buddha sculptors carve Buddha statues. With the wolf's learning ability, he can completely learn and master the skills just by watching.
It’s just that the Buddha statue carved by the wolf has kind eyes, rather than the angry eyes of the one carved by the Buddhist sculptor.
Over the years, the wolf has relied on making and selling Buddha statues to earn money and survive in this strange place.
I put down the Buddha statue in my hand, stood up and walked outside, feeling the warmth brought by the warm breeze and light of the sunny day. I stretched and felt comfortable.
Wolf likes his current life and this era very much. It is much better than his life in Ashina, but...
Even in such a beautiful era, there are disgusting things, those man-eating evil ghosts. Over the years, Wolf has also heard many legends about ghosts.
Cannibalism at night, strange abilities, and the legendary organization that hunts evil spirits - the Demon Slayer Corps.
While Wolf hated the undead that were disrupting every world, he was also curious about the legendary Demon Slayer Corps.
He believed that the legend was not groundless and that the Demon Slayer Corps really existed, but had not appeared in the public eye.
"Mr. Wolf! Are you there?"
The happy shouts, along with the sound of running footsteps, reached the ears of the wolves in the temple.
It's that little girl again, so noisy...
Although he thought so in his heart, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing that the wolf was actually in a good mood at the moment.
"exist."
The girl who fainted after the evil ghost attack has grown up. Her youthful and beautiful appearance makes every young man in the town blush.
I ran into the temple and saw a wolf basking in the sun on the steps, and I smiled happily.
"Mr. Wolf, I'm leaving soon. Although we will meet again in a few days, I still want to say goodbye to you!"
No one knew what the girl's parents did, as they did not return to the town until several days after the battle ended.
As soon as he came back, he saw his collapsed house. He rushed into the ruins and started searching like crazy. His worried look was heartbreaking.
Fortunately, the neighbors finally told them that Minako was safely staying in the home of the elderly couple, and they ran to Minako and hugged her and cried.
Wolf was also watching the Fujiwara family crying, but he noticed something strange in the crying of the Fujiwara couple.
Those were not tears of joy after knowing that her daughter was still alive, but rather tears of fear after surviving a disaster.
Wolf felt that he was not mistaken, but he did not think it was a big deal. He just thought that the Fujiwara couple were a little strange.
Over the past three years, the couple often went out and spent less time with Minako, which resulted in her spending most of her time with the old couple.
But just a few days ago, the anxious couple ran back, found Minako, excitedly took her hand and said something incomprehensible.
"Minako! The time has finally come to meet the Master, so get ready and follow us!"
Minako was frightened by her parents' sudden return with fanatical looks, and she quickly broke free and ran behind a wolf who was passing by on his way out to sell Buddha statues.
The wolf looked timidly at his parents opposite him with a bad face. He clenched his fists when he saw the Fujiwara couple who were trying to pounce on him. The two men also regained their composure.
They had also heard about Wolf's reputation in the town in recent years, so they did not dare to use force against Wolf to snatch Minako.
He could only change his expression, force out a flattering look, and slowly walk towards the wolf.
"Mr. Sekiro, we came here this time not only to take Minako away, but also for one thing. Can you carve a statue for me?"
The wolf frowned slightly.
"A portrait?"
Seeing the wolf hesitate, the couple hurriedly took out a scroll from their arms, stretched it out carefully, and explained to the wolf with respect in their voices.
"This is a portrait of our leader. I hope Mr. Sekiro can carve a wooden statue for our leader so that we can worship him!"
His eyes swept across the scroll, carefully examining the appearance of the leader the two men were talking about. His hair was white oak, and the color of his irises was as colorful as a rainbow. He wore a hat that symbolized the founder of a religion, and a black cloak.
Unexpectedly young...
Scanning it slowly, Wolf took everything on the scroll into his mind, and his gaze once again turned to the fanatical faces of the Fujiwara couple in front of him.
"Statues are fine, but then... tell me where are you taking Minako?"
The wolf's words were always brief and straight to the point, which choked the Fujiwara couple who were about to speak. They looked at the wolf awkwardly with cold sweats running down their cheeks.
"Of course we want to bring her to the leader so that she can enjoy a peaceful life in the future!"
Before Wolf could continue asking questions, Minako behind him suddenly interrupted loudly.
"I don't want to go with you! I don't want to be separated from Grandpa, Grandma and Mr. Wolf!"
Hearing this, the Fujiwara couple's faces suddenly darkened, but Sekiro's body was always blocking between them and Minako, and they couldn't do anything.
After thinking for a moment, he forced a smile and looked stiffly at Minako behind the wolf.
"It's okay...we can come back in a few days!"
"this..."
Sensing Minako's hesitation, the two had begun to rejoice, but when they saw Wolf still with a grim look on his face, they immediately broke out in cold sweats.
"Of course... Mr. Sekiro, if you can't bear to part with Minako, you can see her sooner when you deliver the statue to our church after the wooden statue is carved!"
After hearing the two's explanation, Wolf's unfriendly expression eased a little and he looked at Minako behind him.
"Do you want to go?"
Minako thought about it for a moment and finally nodded.
Seeing this, Wolf turned around and asked the Fujiwara couple one last question.
“What is the name of your church?”
When they heard Sekiro's question, they were stunned at first, and then proudly answered the wolf's question.
"The Eternal Paradise Religion!"
