Chapter 143: Did he really foresee the future?!
The more she pondered, the deeper she delved, the more she felt a bone-chilling terror.
Even with Raiden Ei's formidable martial prowess, she felt a sense of panic surging from within her heart.
This made Raiden Ei's scalp tingle.
Ever since her sister passed away and she took over the position of Shogun, Raiden Ei had been following Inazuma's existing administrative system.
At first, she hadn't thought about these issues at all, because she simply didn't understand them.
And Yae Miko understood, but it seemed she had overlooked them as well.
Yae Miko was not the same in serious matters as she was usually; she was very earnest.
Thinking back, during the period when she herself was lost, the entirety of Inazuma had relied on Yae Miko to slowly pull through that time.
Yet, she had actually overlooked this point.
Clearly, this was not logical.
But the more illogical it was, the more it made Raiden Ei feel horrified.
"Will this video provide an answer?"
Raiden Ei stared fixedly at the video.
She was in desperate need of an answer that would put her mind at ease.
But the video did not reveal anything that could serve as a clue.
It merely showed that after Gu Chen learned Yae Miko had been running around and was caught by Kitsune Saiguu, he and Raiden Makoto took Yae Miko back to the Tenshukaku to continue handling government affairs.
Raiden Ei's brows furrowed slightly.
The time in the video seemed to pass rather quickly; in the blink of an eye, two or three years had gone by.
"Two or three years, and Sister still hasn't succeeded?"
Even Raiden Ei was somewhat surprised.
With a "dog-headed strategist" like Kitsune Saiguu, how had Raiden Makoto still not won over Gu Chen?
Whether it was Raiden Makoto's reason or Gu Chen's, Raiden Ei couldn't be bothered to think about it; she was more concerned with the current situation.
Inside the Tenshukaku.
Today, Raiden Makoto was going to take Raiden Ei with her to Celestia to be enfeoffed.
The Archon War had already reached its final stages.
The people in the chat group didn't dare to miss a single detail.
Now, the discrepancies in history were becoming increasingly obvious; it was almost laid out in the open.
"Do you want to come and see? I hear the scenery on Celestia is quite nice; they say you can overlook the entire continent!" Raiden Makoto looked at Gu Chen, somewhat hoping he would follow her.

After Gu Chen shook his head, he said: "I won't go. With Ei gone, I am the strongest left in Inazuma. If we both go, who will guarantee the safety of Inazuma?"
"Who can guarantee that those things driven out to the Dark Sea won't act out of desperation and come to take revenge? After all, Inazuma is not that far from them."
After Gu Chen finished speaking, Raiden Makoto felt a bit disappointed, but thinking about it, this was indeed the truth. She didn't force the issue, but instead turned to Ei and said: "Then let us set off; the sooner we go, the sooner we return."
【Self-correction: The source text split the sentence across lines 32-33; translating as one.】
"Mm."
Raiden Ei was, as always, a person of few words but decisive action.
The two sisters transformed into bolts of lightning and headed toward the sky. ===== CHAPTER 145 =====
