Chapter 196

~3 min read 511 words

Raiden Ei still had a deep memory of Hiiragi Shinsuke's ancestors; they were indeed heroes. Hiiragi Shinsuke's behavior had truly tarnished that family.

Facing Hiiragi Shinsuke's accusations, Kujou Takayuki did not refute them at all, just silently lowered his head. He did not think he had done anything wrong.

As long as the Raiden Shogun was still there, as long as the Musou no Hitotachi still existed, Inazuma would not perish. Even if the people below died in large numbers, what did that have to do with him, Kujou Takayuki?

But he could not say such words to Raiden Ei.

The Raiden Shogun was the Raiden Shogun of the people of Inazuma, not his Kujou Takayuki's alone.

Thinking of this, Kujou Takayuki sighed silently and said to Raiden Ei: "Your Excellency, I am willing to hand over all evidence of interest exchanges and cooperation with the Fatui. I hope you can give the Kujou Clan a way to survive."

"My two sons, they did not participate in these matters."

"Do they know what you have done?"

"Do not lie, you cannot deceive me!" Raiden Ei said coldly.

Kujou Takayuki was silent. After pondering for a moment, he said: "My eldest son, Kujou Masahito, knows a little. My second son, Kujou Kamaji, does not know about these things; he even opposed the Vision Hunt Decree and the Sakoku Decree to me before, but I scolded him."

Raiden Ei closed her eyes silently: "Kujou Masahito must die, and all other relevant members of the Kujou Clan must die."

"As for Kujou Kamaji, he is stripped of the Kujou surname from now on and may not continue to live in Inazuma as a noble. All the property of the Kujou Clan must be confiscated to compensate for the losses of the commoners of Inazuma."

"At the same time, Kujou Kamaji and his descendants must make up for your crimes and live as sinners from now on."

Kujou Takayuki trembled upon hearing this. He had never expected that the Shogun would do this.

At first, he had some regrets. If the Vision holders were still there, would there be someone to deal with the monsters on Narukami Island?

But considering that those people could obtain Visions, and neither he nor his two sons had obtained one, he became jealous.

As the highest-ranking nobles of Inazuma, they had not obtained Visions; why could those people obtain them?

Especially after the Kamisato siblings both obtained Visions, Kujou Takayuki's jealousy became increasingly severe.

He hated everyone who obtained a Vision!

And he wanted to destroy them.

Moreover, the Fatui gave too much, and their cooperation was too pleasant.

He believed that as long as things continued like this, the Kujou Clan's status in Inazuma would become increasingly unshakable. He just did not expect that the ley lines would suddenly become chaotic, monsters would increase, and grain would also become a problem.

If it weren't for these, the Raiden Shogun would not have discovered the problem, right?

(Seeking flowers, seeking monthly tickets, seeking automatic subscriptions, mwah, love you all!).
