Chapter 195

Listening to Raiden Ei's words and knowing that she would not retract her command, Kamisato Ayaka bowed respectfully to her: "Thank you, Your Excellency!"

Becoming a genuine White Heron Princess seemed quite nice; she could be considered to have brought glory to her ancestors.

If her mother knew about this, she would probably be very happy, right?

Moreover, with her as the White Heron Princess, if other families wanted to persecute the Kamisato Clan in the future, they would have to show some respect for her title.

As for Kamisato Ayato, he felt happy for his sister, not only because she had become the White Heron Princess, but also because she could go to Liyue and escape the whirlpool that was Inazuma.

He had a premonition that Inazuma would soon face a storm of blood. Although the Kamisato Clan might not have any problems, out of a brother's protection for his sister, Kamisato Ayato still hoped she would leave.

Moreover, such a life was likely what Kamisato Ayaka wanted, right!?

"Mm, work hard in the future!" Raiden Ei nodded slightly, then turned her gaze to Kamisato Ayato and said in a deep voice, "How many families within the Yashiro Commission were involved in those matters?"

Kamisato Ayato's eyes flickered slightly. He took out a notebook and handed it to Raiden Ei with great respect: "Your Excellency, this is the intelligence and information my clan has collected over these years."

"There may be some errors in it, but it is mostly accurate. Previously, due to certain reasons, it could not be delivered to you."

Raiden Ei took the notebook, opened it, and her expression became incredibly ugly.

Good heavens, she had previously thought the nobles of Inazuma were already rotten enough, and Yae Miko had told her some things, but she had not expected that she had still underestimated these nobles.

Keeping children in captivity, forcing good women into prostitution, trafficking in people and organs—some nobles even took killing as a pastime. Raiden Ei had never imagined that under her governance, such depraved people would appear in Inazuma.

(╯)╯┻┻, not only Raiden Ei, but even the Raiden Shogun wanted to sharpen her blade to kill people at this moment.

A disgrace, an absolute disgrace!

The Raiden Shogun felt she had been provoked!

There were some things the Raiden Shogun could still understand to some extent, or at least endure without killing, but at this moment, she wished she could sharpen her blade and go chop off their heads one by one.

These fellows, not one of them was innocent!

Simply damnable!

With the anger of Raiden Ei and the Raiden Shogun, thunder rolled across all of Inazuma. Combined with the military orders previously issued by the Shogun, everyone now knew that this Electro Archon was angry beyond measure.

"This is not the eternity I wanted!" Raiden Ei wanted to maintain Inazuma in the beauty it had when Makoto was still there.

In order to maintain eternity as much as possible, she had distributed those official positions, such as letting certain families inherit them indefinitely. Clearly, her actions were wrong.

This had made these fellows increasingly lawless. The eternity she pursued was beautiful, a paradise that her subjects yearned for, not the Inazuma now being ravaged by these scoundrels.

There was no need to imagine; if things continued like this, Inazuma would not even need external threats; it would destroy itself.

╯Ei-chan is very angry!

The Raiden Shogun naturally knew Raiden Ei's intentions at this moment, but she was equally angry that those fellows had actually exploited her loopholes.

It was simply too bullying. As a god, the Raiden Shogun absolutely could not accept such things.

Facing the anger, Kamisato Ayato and Kamisato Ayaka felt a wave of trepidation, but they were not overly afraid. After all, they were considered royalists; at this time, the unlucky ones were not their Kamisato Clan. As for the others, let the friends die, not me.

It was those people who would die, not the people of their Kamisato Clan!

This had nothing to do with them, and Kamisato Ayato also felt that Inazuma had reached a point where it had to be broken to be rebuilt.

Only by eliminating those bloodsuckers could Inazuma gradually improve.

The Raiden Shogun did not speak, and neither did Kamisato Ayaka or Kamisato Ayato; they just knelt silently before Raiden Ei. At this time, not speaking was the best course of action.

After an unknown amount of time, an Okuzumeshu walked in and reported: "Your Excellency, Kujou Takayuki and Hiiragi Shinsuke have been brought here."

Cold killing intent radiated from Raiden Ei's eyes. At this moment, her killing intent had almost solidified. Even the Kamisato siblings, who knew it had nothing to do with them, were trembling.

Is this the true power of the Raiden Shogun?

This is simply too terrifying!

"Bring them in!" Raiden Ei said coldly and indifferently.

"Yes!" The Okuzumeshu moved quickly, and soon Hiiragi Shinsuke and Kujou Takayuki were brought in. Upon seeing Raiden Ei, the two knelt down immediately.

At this moment, they were also thoroughly terrified.

They felt that this time, the Raiden Shogun was different from before, and this time, their heads were not safe.

"Hiiragi Shinsuke, Kujou Takayuki, do you have anything to confess?" Raiden Ei said coldly.

Before the two could speak, Raiden Ei continued: "Enough, I have no interest in listening to your excuses. Leniency for those who confess, severity for those who resist. You will honestly confess everything you have done over the years, as well as all the families and people associated with you. Otherwise, the bloodline of your families will disappear from Inazuma forever."

"From now on, you two families will be the sinners of Inazuma."

"Your Excellency!" Kujou Takayuki and Hiiragi Shinsuke were completely panicked at this moment.

For them, their own deaths were not something unacceptable, but the family was the most important thing.

But if their actions caused the entire family to become sinners of Inazuma, then even if they died, they would have failed their ancestors.

Hiiragi Shinsuke hurriedly pointed at Kujou Takayuki and said: "It was him, it was him, Your Excellency! It was he who conspired with me, wanting to use our power to monopolize everything in Inazuma."

"Vision holders are strong; they might change their fate and threaten our status. We do not have Visions, so Kujou Takayuki conspired with me to suggest that you implement the Vision Hunt Decree."

"As for the Sakoku Decree, it was also because it benefited the Kanjou Commission. Although I don't know why the Tenryou Commission wanted to conspire with me to implement the Sakoku Decree, after it was promulgated, the benefits and income obtained by the Kanjou Commission were greatly increased."

"Your Excellency, my Hiiragi Clan is willing to hand over all our property. Please spare our Hiiragi Clan. Our ancestors once fought against the calamity alongside you, Your Excellency!"

Raiden Ei's face sank upon hearing this. Damn it, such a scoundrel actually had the face to mention their ancestors in front of her.

If their ancestors knew about these people, they would probably want to wipe them out, right?
