Chapter 304: Raiden Makoto: Ei, do you have some kind of serious illness?

~7 min read 1,309 words

Watching this long battle finally come to an end, Raiden Makoto let out a long sigh.

Sigh.

One stubborn sister was already giving her a headache.

Now here came another, even more extreme one.

To actually fight so many times in a battle where the outcome was so clear.

Unbelievable.

So, the gentle and considerate Raiden Makoto came to the Shogun and pulled her into an embrace.

"Alright, alright, you're not angry, are you?"

"It's so much better when everyone is harmonious; I'll make dessert for you later."

Facing Makoto, the Shogun's body stiffened.

She had wanted to break free, but in the end, she didn't move.

Her cold personality.

Logically speaking.

According to her logic, she would say something like, "Dessert is completely meaningless."

She didn't need to touch such things at all.

However, after being beaten like that by Ei, she had become a little more human and less stubborn.

Plus, Makoto was her sister, and those past memories were all there.

So she didn't say anything.

Instead, when she was held by Makoto, there was a warm current in her heart.

It even surprised her.

What kind of feeling was this?

Was it the warmth between family members?

It was the first time she felt that she could have such emotions.

However, on the surface, she still maintained that arrogant posture.

"Hmph, dessert or whatever, I'll talk about it when I have time."

"Oh my, is the Shogun being a tsundere? Just like my Ei. Come, let me cuddle."

"No!"

"Come on, come on, what are you shy about?"

"Hah, this isn't shyness at all, don't talk nonsense!"

"Why don't you go find your Ei!"

"Unhuh, isn't that because you are also my second Ei? So cute."

"Look at yourself, you are exactly the same as she was in the past."

"I am indeed the her of the past, but, wait! No, don't touch me randomly!"

Watching this scene, Ei almost laughed out loud.

Makoto was still the stronger one.

With her soft-spoken persistence, she made the Shogun unable to do anything about her.

The Shogun could only show a cold and disgusted face, while her body didn't refuse—a contradictory performance.

Now she was even blushing a little.

It made Ei look as if she had seen something incredible.

The Shogun could actually have such an expression?

The sun must have risen from the west.

It made Ei want to run over and say, "Yo, you're blushing, let me see!"

However, in order not to irritate the Shogun, she decided against it.

It seemed that after this time, the Shogun had also begun to change.

And so, after this, Ei modified the Shogun's laws.

Allowing her to better assist herself in welcoming the future and new changes.

Makoto also tapped the [Musou Isshin].

The power transformed by the Archon of Time merged with Raiden Makoto's own authority of Life, causing the seed of the Sacred Sakura to float out.

One provided life.

One disrupted time.

And then Ei planted it with her own hands.

And so.

The Sacred Sakura gradually sprouted and grew into a great tree here, spanning back to the distant past of Inazuma.

And during that time in Khaenri'ah, it acted as the most critical object, constantly absorbing those filthy and pitch-black powers, thereby preventing Inazuma from collapsing.

The Shogun watched on like this.

Ye Ruo also watched silently the whole time.

Then this space was also modified by him to a sufficient degree.

Fortunately, there was already the power of time here, so he only needed to play a stabilizing role.

And so they all left this place.

Once they came out, they became a three-person team.

After all, the Shogun and Ei were one body.

Then they returned to the Tenshukaku.

Makoto was thus able to gradually know the current situation in Inazuma.

And inside the Tenshukaku, it wasn't long before her sounds of shock and frustration were heard.

"What~?"

"Executing the Vision Hunt Decree? Confiscating all Visions?"

"Closing the country?"

"And Seimei, you mean that the Tri-Commission is now severely corrupt, leading to the people living in misery?"

"My god, Ei, what have you done?!!"

Raiden Ei: .......

Facing Makoto's reprimand, Ei became uncharacteristically weak.

She was a bit stuttering.

She wanted to get the Shogun to come out.

After all, for these five hundred years, she had only been in seclusion within the Plane of Euthymia.

Weren't the things outside always the responsibility of the Shogun?

As a result, the Shogun refused to come out at this time.

No matter how she called, it was useless.

In fact, the Shogun let out a cold snort in the Plane of Euthymia at this moment.

Hah, your own business, don't try to make me take the blame.

I am just a cold and ruthless executor.

Clearly, these were all things the two of us discussed.

Besides.

I was just beaten up for so long.

There's no reason for me to go and get scolded now.

So Ei had to obediently state all her thoughts.

In order to pursue eternity and a nation that would stop forever, these actions were necessary.

Raiden Makoto: .......

This time it was Makoto's turn to have a headache.

She sighed, and then sighed again.

"Sorry, it's my fault for not teaching you well."

"I should have persuaded you long ago not to be obsessed with the Musou."

"Actually, I always wanted to remind you that dreams are the true eternity; you are a bit too paranoid."

Makoto and Ei were both gods pursuing eternity.

It was just that their viewpoints were completely different, even opposite.

In fact.

Makoto's vision was higher, and she had already seen a much more distant future.

While Ei, on the contrary, had gone down a dead end.

A nation where eternity stops—is that still life?

For humans, to be in such a stagnant stage, without development, without progress, without ideals and a future.

Maintaining the current civilization day after day.

Are people really willing to live such a life?

Not to mention there were other nations outside.

Makoto, on the contrary, felt that life was fleeting, so one should seize the time to enjoy it.

Humans would have dreams.

Driving them to constantly move forward and achieve happiness.

Naturally, they would also constantly generate wishes.

Thereby ensuring the vitality of civilization; this was also a kind of eternity.

But the previous Ei could not understand it no matter what.

Even though time was flowing forward.

Why say that this was also eternity?

Now it seemed that since Makoto was resurrected, there would be plenty of time to teach Ei.

These rules should also be changed.

And so, the Vision Hunt Decree was canceled.

The decision to close the country was also changed.

And Kitsune Saiguu and Yae Miko, who were not here before, went to collect evidence of the Tenryou Commission colluding with outsiders, being two-faced, and acting in defiance of orders.

They united the Tengu clan and the Oni clan.

After submitting this information to Makoto and Ei, the operation to arrest and deal with the Tenryou Commission, primarily the Kujou clan, began.

With Ye Ruo, Makoto, and Kitsune Saiguu there.

It fully displayed the side where Ei was weak and unskilled in government affairs.

On the Shogunate side, they directly started to purge and replace all the powerful figures involved.

It could be called cutting through the Gordian knot.

Those who should be executed were executed, and those who should be imprisoned were imprisoned.

Some people in the Kanjou Commission didn't escape either.

The Kujou clan was kicked out of the position of one of the three commissions, and this time the Tengu clan took over.

The Kujou Clan was kicked out of their position as one of the Tri-Commission, and this time, the Tengu clan took their place.
