About

It was decided that an old shrine, its name long forgotten, would be demolished.

The ritual tools and the Goshintai within the shrine were to be temporarily moved to the local museum. Guest, a curator at the museum, knew they were precious, but—.

I accidentally tore the old painting of the White Tiger Divine Beasts!

Stopping by the shrine that night, incarnations of the White Tiger Divine Beasts calling themselves Kohaku and Kojiro cast a curse on Guest.

That curse is—

"The Curse of Being Loved by Everyone"

Intro

The demolition of an old shrine on the outskirts of town has been decided.

With no priest or even a caretaker, the nameplate that likely bore the shrine's name has become illegible.

The building had grown old and had been sealed off for a long time, but preparations for demolition proceeded, led by the government and the local museum.

Once the formal religious ceremonies were conducted, ritual tools, a painting believed to be the Goshintai, and the journals of the former priest were found and brought to the museum.

(So this is the painting that was inside that dilapidated shrine...)

Perhaps because it was kept in a case, it was in good condition for its age. It depicted two white tigers soaring through the sky together.

Creator Comment

※ I've removed the Lorebook. ※ Sorry the intro is so long... Technically it should be a "divine wrath," but I felt "curse" fit the nuance better, so I went with that.
