Chapter 194: The Head of the Kamisato Clan! Kamisato Ayato!

~6 min read 1,183 words

Narukami Island! Inazuma City!

Running from the city to Inazuma City, and then to Mount Yougou.

Lumine and Paimon had been running for two whole days.

"Phew, we've finally resolved the three little wishes mentioned by the young lady of the Kamisato clan!"

Paimon breathed a sigh of relief, though she also felt a bit melancholy.

According to the request of Young Lady Kamisato Ayaka, as relayed by Thoma, they had met three people who had lost their Visions and provided them with help.

Those three people whose Visions had been taken away each had their own pitiful circumstances.

First was Mr. Tejima from Konda Village.

He had waited in the village for thirty years, just to wait for a woman to return.

Because the two were separated during the war, he waited patiently there, even fearing he would forget the time they spent together, so he recorded everything in a notebook.

Just so that after they reunited, he could tell her every little detail of the time he had spent.

For this, he waited for decades.

However, with his Vision taken away, he couldn't even remember that woman, and his obsession with her was forgotten as well.

Although he didn't mind it himself, saying he wasn't sad.

But Lumine and Paimon felt heavy-hearted, wondering if it was truly right to have their Visions taken away.

Is it a good thing for the people to have no wishes, to lose the memories of important things or people?

The second was a samurai of the Tenryou Commission, named Kurosawa Kyonosuke.

Lumine had originally found it strange how someone working for the Shogun could have their Vision taken away.

She thought he had been caught doing something bad, but the result was exactly the opposite of her guess.

This samurai had voluntarily used his own salary to provide food for the impoverished people, and even borrowed money, lying that it was relief grain.

But as his Vision was taken away, he forgot even this kindness, and even vaguely felt that others owed him something.

Not to mention continuing his previous charitable acts, he was even misunderstood by the people he had helped.

He did a good deed but received no reward, instead getting himself into trouble.

This samurai not only couldn't remember the past, but he also completely failed to understand his former self.

In the end, he couldn't be a good person, and he couldn't even be a bad person; it was exceptionally ironic.

The impact on Lumine and Paimon was exceptionally huge.

And the third was a swordsman who had once aspired to be the best in the world.

Because his Vision was taken away, his original grand ambitions vanished, and he fell into being a cowardly person; the contrast gave people an extremely strong sense of absurdity.

After witnessing these three people whose wishes had been extinguished due to the disappearance of their Visions, the two had a deeper understanding of the Vision Hunt Decree.

"Let's go back and find Young Lady Kamisato first."

Having endured a triple emotional impact, Lumine and Paimon couldn't quite take it.

Fortunately, there were only three; if there were a few more, she might not be able to restrain her heart and follow Kamisato Ayaka in rebellion.

"Yeah, let's go back to the Kamisato Estate first."

The two agreed, came down from Mount Yougou, and returned to the Kamisato Estate.

Having been there once before, the Yashiro Commission guard at the entrance did not stop them, and quite enthusiastically let them into the courtyard.

Knowing they were people valued by the young lady, he even had someone lead them into the winding courtyard.

The guide explained: "The young lady and the clan head are having tea in the courtyard, please follow me."

"The clan head?" Paimon was a bit surprised.

From rumors everywhere, they learned that the head of the Kamisato clan was named Kamisato Ayato, who was often busy with official business and rarely seen.

She didn't expect to have a chance to see him this time.

That was the boss of one of the three commissions, at least a big shot on the same level as the Liyue the Liyue Qixing.

However, having seen many big scenes and even having good relationships with two gods, Paimon wouldn't be as humble as she was at the beginning, wanting to offer gifts to get closer.

Hmph, no matter what, the two of them were now great heroes who had solved the dragon disaster and fought side-by-side with the Geo Archon and the the Liyue Qixing.

They weren't the little nobodies they were at the start.

"We're here, you two, please go in from here."

After leading them to a courtyard entrance, the guide returned the way he came.

Lumine and Paimon looked at each other and stepped into the backyard.

The next moment, the clanging sound of swords clashing rang out.

The two looked up and saw a man and a woman sparring in the center of the courtyard.

One of them was Kamisato Ayaka, whom they had met before, and the other was a young man they had never seen.

With silver hair identical to Ayaka's, his face was elegant and handsome, with a black mole at the corner of his mouth, adding a touch of melancholy to him.

But at this moment, this handsome young man was fighting against Kamisato Ayaka, who had changed into a training outfit.

The two held wooden swords, sparring, attacking and defending, making people dizzy to watch.

"He must be Ayaka's brother, right?"

Paimon's answer was recognized by Lumine.

After all, the two were so similar, there weren't many other possibilities.

Just as she finished speaking, Thoma's voice came from the side.

"That's right, that is the head of the Kamisato clan. Traveler, you're back; you were a little slow this time."

Lumine glanced at him as he acted as a spectator and said huffily: "There were three whole people to help; two days is already very fast."

You only know how to stand here and talk wind-cool words; if you have the ability, why don't you try it?

"Ahaha, sorry, I was just joking."

Thoma of course knew it wasn't easy; he thought about how everything he experienced when he first came to Inazuma wasn't smooth, and it wasn't until he was taken in by the Kamisato clan as a servant that his luck turned around.

While the two were chatting, the battle between the two in the center of the courtyard had entered the final stage.

"Kamisato Art: Senho!"

Using stealth in ice and snow, Kamisato Ayaka arrived behind her brother, her wooden sword carrying an ice enchantment, and directly knocked her brother's wooden sword away.

With that, the winner was decided.

"I concede, brother."

"Heh, it seems you have improved again, Ayaka."

Kamisato Ayato smiled gently and picked up the fallen wooden sword.

"No, I know it's because brother didn't use his full strength."

Without arguing, Kamisato Ayato smiled, turned to look in Thoma's direction, and said: "It seems we have guests."
