Chapter 847 I heard your wish

"Well... I know the 'Big Raccoon Demon', but I don't know where it lives..." Jiang Yi looked at the three pairs of expectant eyes and responded, "I'm sorry, you need to find this 'Big Raccoon Demon' by yourselves."

"Ah! So that's it..." Matsuzaka, Iwao, and Ayaka said disappointedly.

"Don't be anxious, and don't be discouraged. To become a great hero, you need patience and wisdom." Xiao Gong looked at the three people who were in a depressed mood.

"Even if we don't find it now, it will definitely appear before the fireworks start. Before that, remember to come to Sister Xiaogong's house to get weapons, okay?" She encouraged, "Light my special fireworks, no matter how powerful the 'Big Raccoon Demon' is, it will be scared away."

"I'll leave it to you who are so powerful to deal with this powerful giant raccoon demon!"

The three children cheered: "Got it! Since Xiao Gong and Monster said so, let's be patient!"

They were ready to go back and share today's experience and the "Yokai Fireworks" candy with other friends.

Xiao Gong remembered something and took out a few notes from her pocket: "Wait, these...each of you should take one, remember to bring them back to your parents and ask them to keep them safe. Just tell them that they were given by Sister Xiao Gong, and they will understand what I mean."

The three children accepted the note, thanked Jiang Yi and Xiao Gong and said goodbye.

"Got it! Thank you, Sister Xiao Gong! And Mr. Monster for giving us a surprise!"

"We'll go back first! Bye!"

"Sister Xiaogong! After you finish preparing for the fireworks party, you must come back early to play with us!"

The three of them ran away quickly.

"How is it?" Xiao Gong looked at Jiang Yi, "Mr. Monster, you are very popular with children..."

"Maybe 'Monster Fireworks' is more popular than me!" Jiang Yi said modestly.

"Haha! You must be more popular! I guess in a few days, all the children in Inazuma City will know that there is a 'Monster' who will bring 'Monster Fireworks'." Xiao Gong's eyebrows curved, "Thank you. Accept my abrupt request."

"It's okay! I really enjoyed today's experience! What's more, I found some inspiration to add a whole new hundred ghosts to my book." Jiang Yi turned around with a smile.

"Bai Gui? Are you writing a book?" Xiao Gong asked curiously.

"I guess so! But compared to writing, it's more like recording and fulfilling a dream." Jiang Yi took out the "Record of One Hundred Ghosts", "Do you want to take a look?"

“Great!” Xiao Gong flipped through the Hundred Ghosts Records. “Yaksha who was reborn and reunited in Liyue, the puppet sword ghost who returned to his homeland, the Yinmara ghost who punished the villains, Shiranui and Yuki Onna who inherited their wishes and moved forward, the suppressed evil god…”

She read bit by bit and realized that these might all be true.

"I like this kind of ending..." Xiao Gong closed the "Record of One Hundred Ghosts", "You know that the 'Big Raccoon Demon' is fake!"

"When I first heard about it, I knew it was probably a story made up by the children's parents to prevent them from running around and encountering dangerous monsters."

She laughed and said, "After all, if there is such a powerful monster, hiding at home will be useless. How can it be like in the story, following the rules of fairy tales so well?"

"When the children came to ask me, I didn't expose the truth. Instead, I said that the 'big raccoon demon' looks cute and likes to play pranks but doesn't like to hurt people. What they believe now is probably the image I made up."

"I am very grateful that you played with the children and confirmed the existence of the giant raccoon monster as 'Mr. Monster'."

"Their families are worried about their safety, or they may have other considerations. Without knowing more, hastily saying that the 'big raccoon demon' doesn't exist may harm them."

Xiao Gong gave Jiang Yi a smile that dazzled him.

"Besides, for children, it's enough to believe and like something. Whether it's true or not is not that important."

"Isn't it?"

Of course Jiang Yi nodded.

How did he get his knowledge of the laws of dreams? He protects children's dreams. On an island in summer, he felt how Alice, Klee's mother, protected Klee's childlike innocence. He understood the laws of dreams from the story of Duduk that Klee told him.

The gods cast their gaze.

"The 'Big Raccoon Demon' is very popular among children. If we hastily deny its existence, it will make them sad." Xiao Gong put his hands behind his back, and the golden sunlight shone through his hair. "Even if it continues the lie, it is not our turn to be the one to expose it."

"Because... I have so many dreams in my heart!" She opened her hands and described, "The 'fire diamond' that spins and emits seven-color rainbow light when lit, and the 'fog spirit' that lives in seclusion in the mountains and guides the way to the fairyland..."

Xiao Gong talked for a long, long time.

"I know these things don't exist, but I still want to believe them."

"Even if it's fake, it's very handsome and romantic!"

“The things you believed in and experienced in childhood will gradually become irreplaceable treasures.”

Jiang Yi listened quietly to Xiao Gong's endless words.

Xiao Gong smiled and said, "I wonder if Mr. Youkai believed in stories about brave men who defeated evil dragons and holy swords that cut through darkness when he was a child? I think they are the same thing."

"After exposing the fairy tale, what else are we going to tell the children? That Inazuma is now closed to the outside world? Or the story of the 'Eye Hunting Order'? It's too early."

Jiang Yi nodded: "Children will inevitably experience the cruelty of reality when they grow up, so it is better to have a good childhood."

"Mr. Monster!" Xiao Gong smiled, "I like your story! The 'hundred ghosts' you described, and their every ending."

She remembered something, shook her head, and compared: "But there are also many people in Inazuma Yaedo who like to write stories, and I don't like it."

"Many of the stories they wrote were adapted from the legends I just mentioned." She was a little angry and helpless, "But they often have bad endings - for example, the 'fire diamond' was thrown into the exhibition hall by a rich man and never had the chance to be ignited again."

"'Wu Ling' was targeted. Although it was not caught in the end, it became angry and hid away, never to be seen again."

Xiao Gong spread his hands and shrugged.

"The hero who defeated the dragon became the next dragon, and the holy sword that cut through the darkness became a weapon that destroyed the world..."

Jiang Yi was silent.

Two more inspirations.

"Although I know that such stories will be very popular, but... I don't like it. I really can't like it. Those romantic images should just remain romantic." Xiao Gong said loudly.

"If someone says to me, 'Don't be silly, it doesn't exist' - I will make faces at them and throw stones! Because it's annoying!"

"Sorry, it seems like I was the only one talking and I didn't give you a chance to interrupt." Xiao Gong sensed that Jiang Yi was hesitant to speak, and immediately stuck out his tongue.

Normally, she is the kind of person who can't stop talking. Even when she is working, she needs to chat so that she can concentrate better. Mr. Monster has probably never seen this side of her. Will it scare him?

"I heard your wish! The children's wish!" Jiang Yi stretched out his hand, "Are you interested in making something fake become real with me?"

He wants to satisfy the dreams of the children and Xiao Gong and create a new hundred ghosts.

"This new story of "Record of One Hundred Demons"...is written by you."

"Carrying the dream that fantasy comes true..."

"On the day of the fireworks display, let the children see the real 'Big Raccoon Demon'..."

Xiao Gong stood there in a daze, looking at the hand that Jiang Yi stretched out.

Make fantasy become reality, make something that does not exist exist...

"Can you really do it?" The light in her eyes lit up little by little, like rising fireworks that have not yet bloomed, but have left a trail.

"As long as you want, you can!" Jiang Yi was covered in moonlight like a dream, "Because you are walking with me!"

Xiao Gong laughed happily.

"Yes! I am traveling with 'Mr. Monster'!" She stretched out her hand and held the god's hand.

Mr. Yokai was never a monster, but a man comparable to a god, who carried the wishes of everyone in Inazuma and fought against General Raiden.

Well then... let me look forward to the dreamy gaze that you, the god, will cast upon us who are radiating wishes!

Make fake become real!

"Oh! But before doing this, I have to go back home and prepare for the 'Naganohara Fireworks Festival'!" Xiao Gong stuck out his tongue in embarrassment.

"You know the 'Naganohara Fireworks Festival', right? It's the fireworks festival that's about to start! It's hosted by our family and the shrine magistrate with many people. It's very famous in Inazuma."

She excitedly introduced, "Although it has been postponed due to the Eye Hunting Order, it doesn't matter. Since it has been resumed, we shouldn't let people down."

"Come to the fireworks party with 'Monster'. I'll prepare a big, super-beautiful firework for you!"

Jiang Yi and Xiao Gong walked side by side and returned to Daozu City.

"I'm looking forward to it!" Jiang Yi said with a smile.

"I'm looking forward to it too!" Xiao Gong's eyes were bright.

The "Record of One Hundred Ghosts" was slowly opened, and a pattern was faintly visible.

"Big Raccoon Demon" - the dream spirit of all ghosts.

There is a blank space behind, waiting for the continuation of the child's dream, the story of falsehood turning into reality...

I am God, and God loves the world!
