"Well..." Well, he didn't really... know. "I'm a god, that's true, but...

"I'm new, to say the least." Watanuki looked back to him. "Having a shinki, managing a temple, and granting people's wishes...

"...Well, the granting wishes part is nothing new--but the shinki part is definitely new." He was fumbling a little for words. Everything was a little difficult to explain. "But yeah, people pray and ask for wishes. But many of them don't pray to a god. They'll just pray to whoever they think will listen and heed their request." That part was something he more learned from Yuuko. At least in weird matters like these, he wasn't completely lost. The words came easier to him.

"Wishes can be many different things, so it's up to us to filter through them and grant wishes that we can accomplish. A god's power and wealth comes from how many people believe in him." And he gestured towards the temple.

"And Guanyin--many people believed in... them."
