Chapter 683.: 683.
「 Tsukiko-san, do you think you can become a prostitute? 」
Nei asks Tsukiko .
「 I can’t 」
「 Why? 」
Tsukiko looks at me .
「 To think that I’ll see something so sad every time I have sex, I won’t be able to endure it 」
Peeking through people’s mind .
They’ll find the wounds at the bottom of it .
「 Tsukiko won’t become a prostitute as well then? 」
「 I think I can’t . If becoming a prostitute is what everyone says it is then I’ll need to have sex with anyone . I don’t think my heart can stand that 」
Tsukiko’s reply surprised me .
Is Jii-chan okay with the three of them not becoming a prostitute?
If they can’t become a prostitute then they can’t train to become a shrine maiden, or did I get this wrong?
「 But, what should I do? I must become a shrine maiden, whatever it takes 」
Tsukiko?
「 Yo-chan, don’t worry about anything unnecessary 」
Nei said .
「 Yes, this happening is part of Grandfather’s plan 」
Misuzu?
「 Hey, Tsukiko-san, have you ever met the shrine maiden before your mother? 」
Nei asks .
「 No, I haven’t 」
「 But do you know her name? 」
「 Yes 」
They never met the shrine maiden two generations ago?
「 I mean, what is Tsukiko’san’s grandmother doing now? Not the shrine maiden grandmother tho 」
「 My paternal grandmother died three years ago, she didn’t seem to be a shrine maiden 」
Her grandmother from the Father’s side wasn’t a shrine maiden .
「 Grandmother from Mother’s side was a shrine maiden, but she died before I was born . Uhm 」
「 The Takakura shrine maidens are short-lived 」
Yomiko speaks for her sister .
「 I hear that your lifespan’s reduced in exchange for the “Miko power” 」
「 Well, that’s not unreasonable . You see through the other party’s heart when you have sex 」
Nei mutters .
「 Much more if that other party is a big boss in Yakuza 」
「 Why, Ya-chan? 」
I asked . Nei;
「 A man who rises to become a Yakuza big boss would be an old man with too many desires . On top of that, he pushed down a lot of people to misfortune to rise up to that position . Both men and women 」
Even if his hands don’t get dirty, he’s done something that would kill the lives of many people .
If one has strong desires, he’ll have sex with a lot of women .
「 I don’t know who first started the Takakura shrine maiden’s arbitration with the Yakuza’s conflict but, that’s just an ugly trap 」
Nei said .
「 They make some sort of dispute and then the big boss of both organizations can rape the shrine maiden . If it’s a pervy old man with so much lust, then he’d easily join the ride . “I can make the shrine maiden feel better than that other boss,” and they have some weird conflict already 」
Is it that easy?
「 Takakura shrine isn’t revered that much I think . I’m sure that the elders from the Yakuza world would say that “this is a ritual from the old days” and force the shrine maidens to proceed with the arbitration . Then, well, they’ll have sex with the same woman and have the bosses join in . There’s the idea of having sex with the same woman makes them “hole brothers” It’s a convincing method in the Yakuza world 」
Nei looks at Tsukiko .
「 Furthermore, the shrine maiden used for the arbitration ceremony has to be young and beautiful . That would please the bosses 」
「 Indeed, mother was still young when I was born 」
Tsukiko replied .
「 But, Nei-chan, Tsukiko-san’s mother has done the arbitration twice 」
The arbitration that gave birth to Tsukiko and,
The mediation that gave birth to Luna .
「 Well, there’s only five years gap in there, it might just be that there wasn’t any other suitable shrine maiden candidate in the family . Or maybe, the boss who participated in the arbitration ceremony when Tsukiko-san was a famous one that the following one asked: “I want the same shrine maiden ‘that’ boss had sex with . ”
Nei explains .
That is why Tsukiko’s mother had done a second arbitration .
「 Either way, someone’s in charge of the conflicts and then both the big bosses perform the sex ritual with the shrine maiden . Then, both big bosses can see each other’s minds together with the shrine maiden 」
All of the secrets they’re hiding in their heart is exposed .
「 That shock will make the big bosses lose their will to continue the conflict . You see, they might be pretending to strike a deal, but there are some who prepare to continue the fight behind the scenes 」
Yeah, to outwit the other, there would be a boss who’d try to pretend to settle the dispute, but,
If that person experiences the “Miko power” and have his heart seen through, he’d be scared .
I’ve experienced it myself, so I know that everything was seen through .
If one had their heart seen through then, it would be impossible for them to have the conflict further .
「 And so, the Yakuza world does that to prevent recklessness from both bosses . After all, even all of the memories in the past the bosses have hidden from their peers are all seen through by the shrine maiden 」
I see .
「 Wait, if those bosses who experienced the arbitration once, had sex with the shrine maiden and had their heart read told someone about it, won’t there be no one to receive the shrine maiden’s arbitration even if the elders recommend it? 」
Ruriko asks .
「 No, those who experienced the Miko power won’t talk to anyone about it 」
I said .
「 They don’t want anyone to know . Yakuza bosses are people with high pride after all . Besides 」
「 What is it? 」
「 If there were anyone else who gets caught in the trap the elders set up, they’ll feel “serves’ you right” That’s their personality . Therefore, they’re all silent . They might mention that the Takakura shrine maiden has some strange power, but they won’t speak specific such as “reading one’s heart” Rather, they’ll say that it would be beneficial for them if they participate int he arbitration ceremony as you’ll have sex with the shrine maiden 」
They’ll do it with fellow bosses . They have a competing relationship after all .
「 Then, the part where the shrine maidens are short-lived was because they read through the heart of the bosses? 」
Mana asks .
「 No, they can’t . After all, the elders who intermediated the reconciliation knows the dispute between bosses . That the shrine maidens read through their heart . If they make a move on the shrine maiden, it will affect the name of that boss, I mean that he’ll become a laughingstock 」
I think .
In fact, the other party of the conflict experienced the same thing, stops them to protect the shrine maiden .
「 In that case, why does the shrine maidens die soon? 」
「 Mana-chan, you see 」
Nei looks at Tsukiko and the two .
「 It’s because they can’t endure it mentally . A young girl suddenly is raped by two bosses of Yakuza, and they show off everything to her . Furthermore, it’s two people 」
Indeed, they won’t be able to endure that .
It’s everything from the memories of the past and even the plans for the next crimes .
The Yakuza old men are showing off all their malice and grudge .
「 They’re not ordinary people . Naturally, the shrine maiden’s heart will feel ill 」
That’s why they die young .
Maybe, some shrine maidens committed suicide .
「 What kind of person is Tsukiko’s mother? 」
I asked .
「 She’s kind, but 」
「 Mother lived in the front shrine most of the time 」
「 We hardly talked to her 」
Tsukiko, Yomiko, Luna .
「 Who’s looking after your training then? 」
「 It was my Grandmother until she died . Then after her, it was Father 」
「 Kiyomi-sama who’s currently in the shrine comes over sometimes to guide us 」
「 We met mother only about once a week if I recall correctly 」
Maybe, Tsukiko’s mother is having psychological problems .
Thus, she’s confined in the front shine .
「 Danna-sama, let’s summarize what we understood so far 」
Misuzu changed the topic .
「 We know that there are two types of Takakura shrine maiden, the “Tsuki” which can read people’s minds, and “Yomi” which causes people to follow her will, but 」
「 That would mean that only the “Tsuki” shrine maiden can mediate the Yakuza 」
「 Yes . It seems that I’m mistaken to assume that the Tsuki and Yomi shrine maiden take work alternately in the shrine 」
Reading minds while having sex is what’s necessary for the arbitration .
「 Hmmm . The “Yomi” power is the original power of the shrine maidens in Takakura shrine . As for the “Tsuki,” it’s the power of the wandering shrine maiden who came to the shrine after the Meiji era . If I recall 」
Nei thinks while saying those .
「 I mean, it was also since Meiji era when Takakura shrine started to associate themselves with the Yakuza and started the arbitration ceremony 」
Yeah, that’s right .
「 This is just my guess, but you see 」
Nei speaks .
「 The Takakura shrine is a historic one that’s been present since ancient times, but they’ve started to decline during the Meiji era . The power of the original shrine maidens are fading out 」
「 Indeed, in Meiji era, the new government tries to control the old shrines and temples that the flow from the Edo period is interrupted, it’s conceivable that the Takakura shrine is also in a difficult situation 」
Ruriko says .
「 That’s why the Takakura shrine accepted the wandering shrine maidens who lost their place due to the suppression of the Meiji government, then they tried to restore the Takakura shrine maiden’s power with the help of the wandering shrine maidens 」
