Chapter 233

~6 min read 1,168 words

Soon, Yae Miko, who had initially thought of a plan, raised her head.

"You two."

"Yes!"

"Stay at the Grand Narukami Shrine for this period, don't run around, you know you are still wanted criminals."

Although the purpose of wanting them was only to find news of Luo Li through the two, personal safety shouldn't be a big problem.

And according to the order issued by the Raiden Shogun, I'm afraid no one would be cruel to the two.

Oh, except for the Tri-Commission.

After all, the three families have been doing well as superiors, and suddenly there is a risk of being replaced; not to mention most of them colluded with the Fatui and have already been corrupted.

Even if nothing happened, they might have dark thoughts.

"Okay, no problem!"

From originally going to help do things to becoming idle, it was completely a good thing.

How could Lumine and Paimon refuse.

Next, preparing to arrange for the two to stay in the rest area, Yae Miko planned to go to the Tenshukaku again tomorrow and inadvertently reveal a little bit of news.

Just right, Saiguu and the Shogun both thought she didn't know Luo Li's whereabouts.

Isn't it just acting, who can't do it.

However, just as she was about to act, the Grand Narukami Shrine had an unexpected guest.

The White Heron Princess of the Kamisato clan, Kamisato Ayaka.

Encountering sudden changes, Ayaka was somewhat anxious.

The Tri-Commission all suffered heavy losses; the Tenryou Commission and Kanjou Commission directly hit GG, and both heads were imprisoned.

Although her brother Kamisato Ayato was still okay, he was also punished by three levels, not allowed to leave Inazuma City without reason, and there were officials guarding around the Kamisato house.

Although others in the family had no problems and their actions were not restricted, being monitored by others always made people panic.

Ayaka initially thought her connection with Thoma was caught and she was convicted of colluding with rebels.

Later, she found out it wasn't like that at all, but no matter what, she didn't dare to continue contacting Thoma, and after explaining the situation, she temporarily cut off the communication channel.

Now, the situation in Inazuma City has changed, and the orders from the Tenshukaku are terrifying.

Many middle and high-level officials are walking on thin ice every day, completely afraid of making any mistakes.

Just afraid of when the Kujou-related forces and flag-bearer forces will come to the door.

Even the Tri-Commission couldn't escape judgment, let alone them.

"Priestess... eh, Traveler, you are actually here too?"

Kamisato Ayaka, holding a folding fan, widened her eyes, shocked to see the wanted criminals at the Grand Narukami Shrine.

Shouldn't they have escaped to Watatsumi Island with Thoma and defected to the resistance army?!

"Hello, Miss Ayaka." Paimon greeted with a smile.

Kamisato Ayaka was somewhat confused: "This is? Why are you two here?"

She cast her suspicious gaze toward Yae Miko, almost forgetting the purpose of her initial arrival.

The Kamisato clan has a special relationship with Yae Miko, so they seem closer than the other two commissions.

The reason for the relationship has to be talked about from the generation of Kamisato's great-grandfather, and the predecessor of the Kaedehara clan, Kaedehara Yoshinori.

Because of the conspiracy planned by Scaramouche, the sword smiths of the Raiden Gokaden managed by the Kamisato clan betrayed, causing the Kamisato clan to fall into a slump, almost unable to recover.

If it weren't for Kamisato Ayato supporting this family, plus Yae Miko pleading with the Shogun, I'm afraid the position of the Kamisato clan would have been replaced by others by now.

Lumine scratched her cheek and said: "Uh, it's a long story, I'll tell you when I have time. Instead, you, coming to the Grand Narukami Shrine so late?"

Kamisato Ayaka revealed a faint bitter smile: "The Kamisato clan encountered changes, and my brother's safety is unknown, so I came here to ask the Priestess for advice."

Paimon asked in a low voice: "Eh, could it be because you were discovered for sheltering us?"

Shaking her head gently, Kamisato Ayaka indicated that she didn't know either.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have come to find Yae Miko.

This matter is definitely not small, because although others in the Kamisato clan can leave Inazuma City, there are also people following them.

For example, when Ayaka came to the Grand Narukami Shrine, there were two flag-bearer warriors following in secret below.

It seems the Shogun doesn't trust the Tri-Commission very much.

Yae Miko chuckled, the ugly face from having her dark history exposed had already been tidied up.

"The Kamisato clan is just implicated, don't worry about it; when this storm passes, it will naturally return to its original state."

Hearing this, Kamisato Ayaka couldn't feel at ease at all; you must know that they indeed have contact with the resistance army.

Some supplies were sent through special channels, not to mention communicating with people wanted by the Shogun and providing help.

Once everything is exposed, the end of the Kamisato clan will definitely not be good.

Although her purpose is different from the other two commissions, it is for the good of the people of Inazuma, but betrayal is an undeniable fact.

"However, my brother's situation is currently unclear, and the Kamisato clan is once again in turmoil. Please, Priestess, point out a clear path."

Kamisato Ayaka's purpose for coming this time is clear, precisely to get out of the predicament.

If this continues, let alone continue to resist the Vision Hunt Decree, I'm afraid even the Kamisato clan won't be able to be preserved.

"There is a way."

Yae Miko glanced at Lumine, who was regretting being unable to help, and revealed a strange faint smile.

Kamisato Ayaka said hurriedly: "Please instruct me, Priestess."

"This matter is simple, you take these two to the Tenshukaku to claim the reward, and the predicament will be solved."

Kamisato Ayaka: "..."

Lumine, Paimon: "..."

Good guy, you are trading friends for wealth.

Stunned, Ayaka refused on the spot: "How can I trade a friend's life for the family's peace? Please don't mention this matter again, Priestess."

Although the girl's tone seemed weak, the determination inside was obvious.

"Giggle, what does it have to do with life? Do you know why the Shogun wants her?"

Yae Miko's words made the elegant and dignified young lady stunned, hesitatingly saying.

"Saving the prisoner at the hundredth Vision Hunt ceremony, offending the Shogun?"

"This is a misunderstanding. I believe the real reason might be clearer to that Traveler."

Lumine said "uh," silent for it. At first, she also thought she had angered that deity.

But later she found something was wrong; why would such a small matter make that incarnation of constant and permanent thunderous power angry?

What hasn't she seen in thousands of years, just this?

The real problem is that she knows Luo Li's whereabouts!

The Shogun wants to know from her mouth where that riddle-man is.
