Chapter 191: Sangonomiya Kokomi! Abnormal Stigmata!
Inside the main hall of Sangonomiya!
The slightly spacious hall was decorated with many corals and shells, located behind the main case at the top of the main hall.
A huge shell flashed with colorful light against the background of the coral reef.
And the owner behind the main case was a little restless at this moment.
That was an extremely beautiful young girl.
The orange-yellow long hair with gradient blue at the end was moist and smooth, and there was confusion in her gentle purple-white eyes.
Her figure was graceful, wearing a cool blue and white top without shoulder straps, with a bow blooming on her chest.
Her jade arms were covered with sleeves as deep as the starry sky and the sea.
Below were white shorts, and white silk stockings symbolizing purity pulled to the root of her thighs.
"What's wrong with me?"
The young girl pressed her barren chest with her right hand covered in white silk gloves, and there was anxiety and a trace of strangeness in her eyes.
The blue gem embedded in the choker emitted a cool aura, trying to make her thoughts calm down.
But since just now, an inexplicable sense of anxiety arose in her heart, as if she was longing for and expecting something. The beautiful pattern exposed on her back but covered by long hair faintly emitted a heat. 21
The pattern like a tattoo had been possessed since she was born, regarded as auspicious, and also brought extremely powerful power.
At this moment, the young girl who fell into entanglement and confusion was named Sangonomiya Kokomi, the current Divine Priestess, who led all affairs of Watatsumi Island and was respected and trusted by everyone.
In the eyes of all Watatsumi people, she was a resourceful and unfathomable leader, because the young girl always had a quiet smile on her face, and arranged all affairs properly in conversation.
She read military books thoroughly, was good at strategy, had unique insights in military affairs, and could handle internal affairs, diplomacy, and other work in an orderly manner.
It could be called all-around.
Almost everyone felt that as long as there was Sangonomiya-sama, everything would get better.
However, this young girl who was respected by everyone and omnipotent was now in trouble.
"Something is wrong, even reading military books can't make me calm down."
Sangonomiya Kokomi's soft words were soft and glutinous, as if they were a gentle breeze passing through people's hearts, with the incredible power to soothe people's emotions.
But this power lost its effect on herself.
At first, she thought her own energy was used up and fell into a decadent state, but it was not the case.
Because looking at government affairs, Kokomi had no feeling of boredom, more like being influenced by some external influence.
"Related to the Stigmata on my back?"
The clever Kokomi immediately thought of the reason.
When she was still in swaddling clothes, she only had vague memories, and she could only recall a warm aura that was extremely secure and wrapped her.
That aura was like a father, majestic and kind.
Although Kokomi didn't have a father, she didn't know what a father's aura was like, and even her mother was because she was adopted by her foster mother, the previous Divine Priestess.
But she thought that what she felt at that time might be her father's love.
However, after she was born, she searched everywhere on Watatsumi Island and never found an existence that matched that aura.
Over the years, Kokomi had gradually given up searching. Perhaps the father she hid in her heart who no one knew was no longer there.
"But what does the change now symbolize?"
Not knowing much about Stigmata, Kokomi's heart was full of confusion.
Don't look at the illusion that she was omnipotent on the surface, she was actually a bit socially phobic and just wanted to be an ordinary young girl.
"Sangonomiya-sama, General Gorou requests an audience!"
Hearing the voice from outside the hall, the young girl with a faint sadness temporarily suppressed the irritability in her heart and said softly: "Please let him in."
After a while.
Gorou came to the hall with respect for Sangonomiya Kokomi.
"Sangonomiya-sama, this trip transported back 100, 00 jin of iron ore, 1, 00 jin of crystal, 100, 00 jin of white iron ore, 1, 00 jin of electrical crystal, and a total of 50, 00 jin of other various minerals. It was not discovered by the Shogunate army, and besides that..."
Gorou reported all his gains on Seirai Island one by one, in detail.
Sangonomiya Kokomi nodded slightly and praised: "Well done. In this way, there is no need to buy insufficient weapons and armor at high prices from smugglers on Narukami Island, and it is enough to complete internal self-circulation. You have worked hard, Gorou."
"No, it is my honor to serve Sangonomiya-sama. Everything I do is insignificant."
If it weren't for knowing his own personality, others would probably treat him as a real lick-dog.
After finishing the business, Gorou thought of what happened on Seirai Island and the person he brought back, so he was a little hesitant about whether to tell it.
Kokomi saw his hesitant look and said slowly: "Is there anything else?"
"Uh, Sangonomiya-sama, it's like this..."
In the end, Gorou couldn't hide it. He told everything that happened on Seirai Island. After all, this was a big deal. He might not know the cause and consequence, but Sangonomiya-sama must have a way.
This brainless trust, but he didn't know how much pressure it brought to the young girl. She handled affairs tremblingly every day, for fear of making a mistake and causing losses to the Watatsumi people.
After listening, Kokomi's face became serious.
"You mean, that dangerous man was brought back by you?"
"Sorry, Sangonomiya-sama, I... I was just worried that the stronghold on Seirai Island would be exposed."
The general who was brave and martial in front of outsiders was now stuttering and couldn't speak clearly.
Sangonomiya Kokomi fell into deep thought. Judging from the attitude of that person Gorou said, the other party didn't seem to have any malice.
Thoughts changed rapidly, and the young girl made up her mind.
"Where is he now?"
"Uh, just outside Sangonomiya." Gorou felt a little guilty.
"Take me to see him later."
"But..."
Gorou was a little anxious. He was worried that if the other party was an assassin disguised, wouldn't Sangonomiya-sama be throwing herself into the net if she went to meet him.
"Don't worry, it's not that easy for me to have an accident. And since others have taken the initiative to come to the door, wouldn't it be very rude if I don't go to meet them."
Kokomi smiled, not feeling dangerous at all, but the gentle and soft words like water carried a determination that could not be refuted.
Don't look at her as soft and weak, she was actually soft on the outside and hard on the inside.
And intuition told the young girl that if she didn't go to meet him, she would definitely regret it.
The warm Stigmata on her back was still exerting its effect, making a thin layer of halo linger between her hair.
Moreover, possessing the Stigmata bestowed by Father, she was not afraid of any assassins.
