Chapter 188: Kamisato Ayaka Appears! Yae Miko Visits!
Narukami Island! Kamisato Estate!
"This is the Yashiro Commission?! So big!"
Following Thoma to the Kamisato Estate, Paimon couldn't help but gasp when she saw the Yashiro Commission guards patrolling from time to time.
It looked about the same scale as the Kanjou Commission.
Luo Li echoed, "But the Kamisato family is quite quiet, and there are few people."
Thoma smiled: "That's for sure. The Yashiro Commission, the Kanjou Commission, and the Tenryou Commission are known as the Tri-Commission. Although the three have different responsibilities, the Yashiro Commission is mainly responsible for cultural affairs within Inazuma, such as shrine offerings, festivals, book publishing, and so on."
"But precisely because of this, the Kamisato family can often hear the wishes of the people. The young lady of the Kamisato family is kind-hearted and often persuades the head of the family to spend money and send people to help. Often there is a shortage of manpower, so it's no wonder there is no one at home usually."
Explaining to the two, Thoma took them into the Kamisato house.
First, he greeted the acting guard named Hirano and explained that the two he brought were guests invited by the young lady, and they were easily let through.
Paimon muttered: "It seems the review is not strict at all."
Hirano chuckled: "The guests don't know, but Mr. Thoma's strength as a housekeeper is unquestionable. Since he can bring two people here, it means they must be trusted people."
"So that's how it is. It seems Thoma is quite trusted and respected."
Facing the praise, Thoma scratched his head shyly: "It's all everyone's love. Alright, let's go in first."
Entering from the Kamisato Estate, Luo Li and Paimon saw an elegant courtyard, with two or three clear ponds planted with lotus leaves, and ornamental goldfish swimming leisurely.
The only strange thing was that there was a priestess at the side shrine.
But considering that the Yashiro Commission also had the responsibility of shrine rituals, it seemed normal to have a priestess.
"Come, please come in with me, two distinguished guests, the young lady has been waiting for a long time."
Looking at the courtyard inside and out, Luo Li followed Thoma into the Kamisato mansion.
From the outside, the Kamisato Estate looked quite big, but entering the interior, he found that most of it was a courtyard, and the size of the real house was not amazing.
At least compared to the Dawn Winery and the Jade Chamber, it was small.
The three passed through the entrance and the pavilion corridor until they came to a living room, and found a screen placed in the center of the room, with nothing around it.
Paimon looked around and said: "Hey, Thoma, where is the White Heron Princess?"
"Very happy to see you two!"
At this moment, a soft and apologetic voice came from behind the screen.
"You two have traveled across the ocean, and the journey is tiring. To meet you at the mansion like this, please forgive my lack of etiquette."
The gentle female voice carried the elegance and etiquette unique to noble young ladies. Just listening to the voice, one could perceive that the person behind the screen must be a virtuous young lady with a good upbringing.
"Eh, actually behind the screen?!"
Paimon and Luo Li looked over at the same time.
Thoma, to prevent them from having bad thoughts, explained: "Sorry, the young lady of the Kamisato family has always met guests like this. This is the rule of the Yashiro Commission for hundreds of years, not intentionally slighting the two."
Luo Li: "..."
I thought I wasn't worthy of meeting.
Pausing, the gentle young lady continued: "I have been looking forward to your arrival. From Thoma's relay, I am also convinced that the two have the ability to change the situation. Now that Inazuma is under the implementation of the Vision Hunt Decree, the people's wishes are being wantonly trampled, and I cannot sit idly by."
"Traveler, please lend me your power, we will definitely be able to reverse the Shogun's will!"
Listening to the female voice's expectant request, Luo Li called out good guy.
This is to pull people to rebel?
He just came to see the Raiden Shogun, and didn't intend to do anything so exciting.
And after all this, he didn't get anything and had to bear such a risk. The gain and loss were completely mismatched.
"Sorry, I can't do anything about this."
A very decisive refusal, almost without thinking.
"Sure enough."
The young lady of the Kamisato family was a little disappointed. Just the pitifulness in her tone made people want to agree immediately.
Fortunately, Luo Li himself was also a girl, with enough concentration, and remained silent.
Then he heard the young lady of the Kamisato family mention another topic: "Since this is the case, I hope the Traveler can satisfy my three small wishes. In return, I will introduce you to the Raiden Shogun."
Hmm, this time it was much more normal.
Luo Li breathed a sigh of relief. It was really unbearable to let her rebel.
Opposing a god, having seen the strength of the demon god Osial after being sealed, he really didn't want to confront the Seven Archons who could kill demon gods.
That was simply looking for death.
"Okay, I agree."
Not to mention anything else, just three small wishes should not be a big problem.
Paimon might have been pitted too much, and still remained vigilant: "What wishes?"
"It's about three people who lost their Visions. You will understand when you see them."
Three people who lost their Visions?
Luo Li stared at the blurred figure behind the screen, secretly thinking that it was impossible to take a roundabout route.
He swore that he would never embark on the road of rebellion.
Completely unaware that she had set a flag, Luo Li heard the voice of the Yashiro Commission acting guard Hirano outside in the next moment.
"Young lady, the Guuji of the Grand Narukami Shrine has come to visit."
Guuji?
Thoma and the young lady were obviously a little surprised. Why would the Guuji come to the door at this time?
"Please come in quickly."
The young lady of the Kamisato family certainly couldn't let the Guuji wait outside, whether it was from the status or the fact that the other party had helped the Kamisato family before.
Even, after thinking for a moment, she walked out directly from behind the screen.
Treating acquaintances, friends, or benefactors, even the young lady would no longer maintain the inherent habit of meeting guests.
Thus, Luo Li saw a silver-haired beautiful young girl with princess cut and a high ponytail walk out coquettishly.
The girl was beautiful, and the folding fan in her hand opened to cover the lower half of her face, revealing only gray-blue lively eyes, and a tear mole that captured people's hearts at the corner of her left eye.
She wore a gradient blue haori and a dark blue pleated skirt, with patterns of falling cherry blossoms and flowing water printed on the skirt. Her chest and abdomen were wrapped in a black breastplate, and the connected skirt armor covered both sides of the skirt. The armor was printed with the camellia pattern of the Kamisato family.
Luo Li only felt that a dignified and elegant temperament came to his face.
Along with it came a faint silence.
Seeing himself behind the screen, and appearing as soon as he heard the Guuji, sure enough, he was still unworthy.
Although the two were still strangers who were not familiar with each other, this was originally a normal thing.
