Chapter 69

Charge!

[Seeing Seeing Seeing Seeing Seeing Zhongli]: Indeed.

[Venti]: The old man is still impressive! (Admiring)

[Jean]: Although Mondstadt isn't this exaggerated, it's actually about the same. Legend has it that Master Venti rarely leads wars, always helping from the shadows, just like when he once overthrew

[Gu Chen]: That’s because he’s slacking off. (Funny)

[Kaeya]: (Funny)

[Venti]: Nonsense, how can you call it slacking off? I have my deep intentions! (Convinced)

[Barbara]: Then explain in detail?

[Venti]: Ehe!

[Gu Chen]: Your deep intention is just "ehe," right? (Funny)

[Venti]: Instead of analyzing my deep intentions, you might as well analyze Gu Chen’s purpose for doing this!

[Kaedehara Kazuha]: It’s very simple. A god is a god after all. You can’t have the god do everything personally. If things that humans can handle themselves still trouble the god, it would be too inappropriate. Although gods cherish humans, they are not babysitters for humans!

[Furina]: Objective.

[Seeing Seeing Seeing Seeing Seeing Zhongli]: Correct.

[Venti]: Sharp.

[Kamisato Ayaka]: The relationship between Mr. Gu Chen and Miss Baal is truly getting better and better. It’s relatively distant with Miss Ei, though. Why is that? (Confused)

[Yae Miko]: Maybe because Gu Chen prefers mature women? (Yae Miko: smirk)

[Lumine]: @[Gu Chen], is that true?

[Gu Chen]: Don't smear me. Although I don't know what’s going on either, I think it might be because they spend more time together? After all, you all saw it yourselves, they are together every day.

[Kaeya]: This has already been over a hundred years, day and night together. I dare not imagine how deep this affection is! (Funny)

[Venti]: Coward, I dare to imagine! (Funny)

[Lumine]: Alright, alright, I know what to do!

So he likes mature women, right?

Lumine had a very clear understanding of herself.

Although she didn't know how old she actually was, she looked like a young girl on the outside.

She had nothing to do with mature women.

But it doesn't matter, temperament is always enough!

However, there was one more point: her experience didn't seem sufficient.

A name suddenly popped into Lumine’s mind.

Ying'er!

In the first past life video, Lumine felt that this woman was very skilled.

Although she didn't know if it was true, it was time to ask her for advice.

"Paimon, go home by yourself, I have something to do!"

Lumine turned and walked toward the Springvale kiln.

"Eh?"

Paimon couldn't understand.

However, after this second video started playing, Lumine had become strange.

Watching Lumine’s hurried back, Paimon pressed her index finger against her round chin and thought for a moment, muttering: "This must be jealousy, right?"

Shaking her head, Paimon felt she didn't need to think about these things.

While floating toward home, she watched the video distractedly.

The perspective had shifted to Raiden Ei at some point.

Inazuma, through development, was slowly becoming powerful.

The Tenryou Commission had also cultivated many powerful samurai, at least capable of fighting monsters on the battlefield.

With Narukami Island as the base, they had already begun to attack Kannazuka in later generations.

With Raiden Ei, a powerful deity, the battle situation was very smooth.

Even if these samurai who had just entered the battlefield were sometimes at a disadvantage, they would always burst out with powerful combat will whenever they saw Raiden Ei in the front.

This is the power of faith.

Kannazuka of later generations was taken without surprise.

After winning such a battle, it was natural to reward based on merit.

Raiden Ei, as a deity, naturally needed nothing.

But the Shogunate army that returned victorious did.

Honor, status, money—these were all things they deserved.

Gu Chen held a long list in his hand, glanced at it, and handed it to Raiden Ei beside him: "You arrange it."

"Eh? Me?"

Raiden Ei was somewhat surprised.

She had always been in the observation and learning stage.

Since Gu Chen arrived, Raiden Ei hadn't made any decisions.

"Awards presented by the deity personally are naturally the best, and can better stimulate people’s enthusiasm." Gu Chen said as a matter of course.

"Understood!"

Raiden Ei nodded.

After rewarding based on merit.

Raiden Ei found Gu Chen with a nervous mood.

At this time, Gu Chen was quietly looking at the official documents in his hand. After glancing at her, he said: "My God has performed very well, looking somewhat like a monarch."

"It’s all thanks to your teaching~"

Raiden Ei let out a sigh of relief, smiled brightly, and came to sit beside Gu Chen.

There had always been two seats on the throne.

One was for Gu Chen, the Regent General, and the other was for Raiden Ei, the Raiden Shogun.

From the beginning, there was some distance between the two seats, and Gu Chen had always sat on the right, but at some point, Raiden Ei’s seat had also moved closer to the right.

When the two sat down, their limbs would touch if their movements were slightly larger.

After quietly watching Gu Chen process documents for a while, Raiden Ei asked during a short break: "Do you miss home?"

"Home..."

Gu Chen sighed and said: "What’s the use of missing it? At this point, I cannot lie to myself; I can no longer go back."

"It doesn't matter, you can consider this place your home too!" Raiden Ei said very seriously.

"So." Gu Chen nodded and smiled: "I am building my home."

Raiden Ei’s mouth curled into a smile, which quickly disappeared before she tried to ask: "Then do you miss your family?"

"I have no family, only some familiar friends." Gu Chen shook his head.

"Ah... is that so..."

Raiden Ei was somewhat at a loss, her two hands twisting together as if she had done something wrong.

Seeing that Gu Chen did not show much sadness, she gripped her skirt tightly and asked with courage: "Then, then do you miss others?"

Gu Chen was stunned, then shook his head: "Besides friends, who else could I miss?"

After answering, Gu Chen looked suspiciously at the nervous woman beside him and asked: "My God, what is wrong with you today? Checking household registration?"

"No, no, just curious, just curious."

Raiden Ei’s heart tightened, then she took the official document from the side and handed it to Gu Chen: "You look, you look first, I’ll go patrol!"

Raiden Ei hurriedly stood up and ran out.

Gu Chen glanced at the document in his hand, looked at Raiden Ei’s back, which carried a hint of joy, and fell into deep thought.

The camera shifted.

In the courtyard outside Tenshukaku. ===== CHAPTER 128 =====

Gu Chen glanced at the official documents in his hand, watching Raiden Makoto's back as she left with a hint of joy, and fell into deep thought.

The camera shifted.

In the courtyard outside Tianshouge.
