"This Yin and Yang Orb does indeed contain an embodiment of the first shrine maiden's power and emotions from when she was alive, but honestly, that sort of preference is a little..."
Yukari Yakumo's crimson lips curled slightly as she offered a hesitant warning.
"If this orb could turn into a beautiful girl, that would be one thing, but as it is now, I can only use it as a medium. Who would fall for it?!"
Such a frank answer made Yukari Yakumo sigh in relief. Their time together over the past few days had taught her that Roland was not someone who concealed his desires now.
"That's what I thought. Even you wouldn't lust after an inanimate object, would you?"
"Seriously, just what kind of image do you have of me...?"
Roland's expression grew increasingly peculiar. He crooked a finger, making the Yin and Yang Orb spin in the air.
"Although being trapped on the golden throne has considerably reduced my ability to interfere with reality, leaving me unable to do whatever I please like before, with such excellent material available, I can still create new life using the spirituality within it as a foundation."
"Create new life with the Yin and Yang Orb? Is that possible?"
"A piece of cake. After all, this thing is entirely composed of Taoist power."
Roland flicked his fingers and nodded in satisfaction as he listened to the faint vibrations coming from the Yin and Yang Orb.
Yes, the Yin and Yang Orb was pure Taoist power.
Many youkai probably did not know that. After all, the Hakurei Shrine Maiden was a thoroughly Shinto vocation, a shrine maiden belonging to a shrine.
