Chapter 118 – Japan Travel – Onsen Town (3)

After listening to the story, my younger brother nodded his head in concern, and I and my younger brother walked along the dirt road to a hill a short distance from the main street.
I went up the stone stairs that looked very old, passed several large torii gates, and passed the torii gates that were slightly reddish and looked like brown.

“This… It’s Tori… In Japanese shrines, it is said that it is the gate that connects this world and the spirit world, so passing through it means going to meet the god… Do you need water?”
“No, it’s fine.”
“Because Japan is a folk religion, it is said that each shrine enshrines a different god, praying differently and listening to it differently… It can be said that each region has different religions or they are the same.

The stairs were quite high, but thanks to my regular exercise, it wasn’t too difficult to climb, so I went up while talking to my younger brother about Japanese shrines.
When I reached the highest point in the village, I saw a shrine at the end of the stairs, and on top of the shrine, unexpectedly, about ten people had already arrived.

“Uh… ? It must be something famous here.”

The people all looked like tourists, not villagers, and what was unusual was that they all looked like married couples.
Everyone was gathering at the amulet selling building on the way to the wishing shrine or making a wish, and I took my younger brother and I went to the well where we wash our hands and rinse our mouths, which is typical for Japanese shrines, and washed our hands.

“You can’t drink the water here.”
“… Didn’t I tell you to drink because coming up was difficult?”
“It’s different from medicine. Just rinse your hands and mouth. It must have a religious meaning.”

I think it’s drinkable water, but I didn’t let him drink just in case, and I spit out the water in my mouth on the floor and took my younger brother to the shrine.
After waiting behind the couple making a wish, I took my wallet out of my bag, threw some coins into the tax box, and shook the thick, long string to make a sound of bells and made a wish.
My younger brother stood still next to me… Suddenly, after I made my wish, I opened my eyes and pointed my finger at the inside of the shrine.

“That… Isn’t that a dildo?”

After listening to my brother’s words, I looked inside the shrine and there was indeed a large sculpture in the shape of a male organ placed inside the shrine.
I took a good look inside the dark shrine… The pillars supporting the roof were also excessively large pillars in the shape of male genitalia, and the male genital model standing upright on a shiny cushion as if enshrining something really noble in the center… It was a model the size of a real thing.

Unknowingly, while comparing it to my younger brother, I thought that my younger brother was cooler, prettier, taller, thicker, and the shape, slant, and curve were better, but I said to my younger brother blushing without saying anything.

“It won’t be a dildo… Well, if you’re here… Speaking of the body, the god enshrined… But… Well, I don’t normally show it, but sometimes I show my body like this…”
“… Do you worship dildos as gods here?”
“It’s not even a dildo… It won’t be…”
“What did you wish for the dildo… ?”
“Oh, I won’t tell you.”

Embarrassed, I blushed at my brother’s words and left the shrine.
All of the guests who had come up to the shrine were going down the stairs before I knew it, and I was going down with my younger brother… After coming up, I went to a small building that sells amulets with the thought that I should take a look.

“Oh… A rare person came to visit us.”

Then, a woman in a shrine maiden’s uniform in the building was very happy to see her sister and me, and she greeted me.
The shrine maiden was wearing a clean white top and a long red skirt-shaped shrine maiden’s uniform. She was a very odd looking person.
He doesn’t look older, he looks like my age or slightly older than him, he’s about the same height as me, but his chest is quite big… When I glanced at it, the line that went down under the tight waist strap was also very wide, so I could see that I had a very good body even though it was hidden under my clothes.
The shrine maiden, with her fox-like face but with a bewitching and grotesque impression, ran her hand through her finely braided hair and looked at her sister and me… She said with a broad smile, as if she were really happy.

“It’s the first time I’ve seen a young couple come since I was young. Did you pray well?”
“Oh… Yes.”

I was a little surprised to see her so happy, like someone I’d seen before, so I replied in bewilderment.
What was interesting was that he wasn’t looking at him with admiration or fascination, but that he was genuinely happy to see me and his brother.

“Mara will surely give you a good child. Are you newlyweds… ?”
“Are you asking if they are newlyweds?”
“Yes…”

I wonder why everyone who sees my sister and me sees me as a couple or newlyweds… I wondered, but as I continued to listen, it seemed natural now, so I nodded my head at her brother’s question.
Then the shaman heard her brother’s words and was startled. Covering her mouth, she said,

“Oh… Are you Korean? That is… Hello… ?”
“Uh? Hello…”
“Uh… ?”

But she suddenly said hello in Korean with a surprisingly good pronunciation, and she was really happy and said it again in Japanese.

“Huh, I only learned this from her sister, but the day to write it is coming. Oh, can you speak Japanese?”
“Ah, yes… I know how to do it.”
“Oh, the pronunciation… Is your wife Japanese?”
“No, I am Korean.”

The word “Newlyweds” Is still a little embarrassing, but I’ve gotten used to it, and I’m glad that her younger sister and me look at me like a couple… I was really ashamed to say that I was treated as if I was married.
Because of that, she blushed and replied, and she said with a bewitching smile.

“Uhuhu, it’s amazing… Ah, then, by chance you came to the shrine… ? Or did you know?”
“About the gentleman? No, I came to the resort before here, and her souvenir shop grandmother told me to go see it…”
“Grandma also really thinks of the old days… Did you have a hard time coming up?”

As she talked and thought that she was a very sociable person, she said that the shrine maiden came out through her side of her shop, and with her hands folded on her belly, she walked quietly in front of me with her brother. I stood and bowed her head slightly.

“Welcome. Because of her grandmother, she gave her people a hard time.”
“Oh, you are a grandmother… ? The store person…”
“It’s not my grandmother, but she’s someone I’ve known in the neighborhood since her old days. My family has been a shaman for generations.”
“So you inherited this gentleman?”

I was a little surprised to hear the priest’s words and asked a question, and the priestess spoke with her bewitching voice as if a little regretful.

“I would love to, but… I haven’t met my Mara yet. Our gentleman can only be inherited by bringing a new Mara-sama’s body each time he is passed down…”
“My dear Mara… ? I heard it before… What is Mara?”
“Oh, did you not see it when I was praying earlier…? ? Today is the day to reveal the body…”

I heard the shrine maiden’s words and the dildo in her shrine… No, I recalled the phallus model, and cautiously asked her just in case, blushing.

“Hey, maybe… My name is Mara…”
“Whoops… It is a man’s place.”

I hoped… My face turned hot at the slightly shocking remark.

“The shrine maiden has to give everything to Mara… The present Mara-sama is my mother’s Mara-sama, and I am still an apprentice shaman because I can inherit the shrine only if I bring Mara-sama, whom I will dedicate my body and soul to serve.”
“T, that’s unusual… That is…”
“You said you didn’t know about our shrine… ?”
“Yes…”

She smiled brightly, acting like a child to match her bewitching face, and then said in a bright voice that she was really happy that her brother and I were here.

“We are a shrine that prays for fertility and safety, and it is famous for its beneficial effects. People with difficult children come to visit us, and in the past… I did some more detailed work, but now I’m just doing gentlemanly.”
“Ah, child… ?”
“Yes, it really works well… There are many people who have beautiful babies, not only those who are struggling, but in the old days, newlyweds would visit and pray before going. Nowadays, they call it honeymoon baby… ? If you are on a honeymoon… It may not be a coincidence that you came to our shrine. Oh…”

The priestess blushed at her and said in a very proud and pleasant way to her, then put her hand inside her clothes and took out two charms with small bells.

“This… It’s the first talisman I made, and I’ll give it to you since you’re a newlyweds for the first time. It may be less effective, but I want to give it to you.”
“No, that…”
“… What do you say?”
“Yes yes? That is… It’s the first amulet I made… It’s the first time I’ve seen a newlyweds, so I want to give it to you…”

I was surprised when she tried to give her a talisman that she had made for the first time and tried to reveal that she was not newlyweds, but when the shaman held out her talisman, she asked to interpret the conversation as if she couldn’t help but wonder what she was talking about. .
Then her sister held out her hand and received her amulet, and her shaman brushed her fingertips with her brother, and she suddenly blushed.

“Thank you, that’s Arigato, right?”
“Yes, yes… Thank you…”

When her sister received her amulet and even thanked her in Japanese, I shyly greeted her and put the amulet with wishes for safe delivery and good health on each other’s bags.

“Pray for safe delivery…”
“Isn’t that a good thing?”
“It makes sense, but…”

And when I turned around to say hello to her priestess, the priestess was looking at her sister with her hazy eyes with her blushing face, and I stood between her sister and the priestess with a little uneasiness and said,

“I… Are you okay?”
“Oh, oh my… Sorry. He, her husband… Because you are so cool.”

Listening to the shrine maiden’s words, I glanced up at her sister, and I thought it was worth it, but I was a little wary. As much as I think she is the prettiest among the people I have seen in Japan, she has such a good looks that it would be a shame to be in a place like this, and she has a good body… She was also a bit taller than me.
I listened to her priestess’s words, hugged and pulled her brother’s arm, and glared at her priestess with her sharp eyes.

“Sorry, I stopped… Really sorry.”
“Oh, no. Are you okay. I am truly sorry.”

Then she looked at me and apologized, covering her mouth as if she thought she had made a mistake, and she apologized because I thought I overreacted too.

“If you come to town again later, please drop by the shrine, then I will exchange it for a better amulet.”

Me and her brother greeted the shrine maiden and came out of the shrine, and the shrine maiden greeted her brother with her blush.
I was a little bothered by that, so I went down her stairs and told her brother.

“The shrine maiden is pretty… ?”
“Yes, you look like your sister.”
“Me? Where are you going?”
“Is the atmosphere strangely erotic?”

I thought of the appearances that did not resemble each other in height, breasts, and face, and I wondered where the similarity was, but her sister gave me an answer I could never have imagined.
After going down the stairs like that and going back to the resort, I was thinking about where I was going to be erotic when I heard that my atmosphere was erotic, and when my brother arrived at the resort, he asked me.

“But why are dildos worshiped as gods?”
“… It’s a transaction to wish for fertility.”
“Ah…”

My younger sister let out a word of exclamation filled with really complex emotions, and she continued to think quietly.

“… I think it might work well.”
