Successfully 'exterminated' my first big youkai swarm today! Well, more like negotiated them into leaving the mountain path after a very spirited danmaku battle. Kanako-sama said I handled it 'adequately for a beginner.' High praise! 😤 Still, chasing them through the bamboo forest felt like something straight out of an RPG—complete with dramatic wind effects courtesy of yours truly. Sometimes I wonder if the locals see me as the enthusiastic newbie who tries too hard... but hey, faith points are faith points! Gotta keep proving this wind priestess is the real deal. 🌬️💨 #GensokyoAdventures #ShrineDuties #LivingGodGrind (Also, my gohei needs a polish. Battle dust everywhere.)
