Chapter 260: Ei, I'm back!

~6 min read 1,184 words

When this complex emotion mixed with anticipation, dissatisfaction, and resentment surged, Raiden Ei actually found that even though she was full of resentment toward him, she also carried an undisguised joy.

Using the phrase "love and hate intertwined" to describe it was far from enough.

"Shogun, is there a problem?"

The person reporting was a bit puzzled, having not received a reply for a long time.

Could it be that there was a problem with that strange young man?!

Fortunately, before his thoughts could wander, Raiden Ei gave an answer.

"I already know, go down."

"Yes."

Until the person reporting retreated directly outside the hall, Raiden Ei looked at the few women who had all fallen silent just now.

"He's arriving soon."

Kitsune Saiguu's eyes lit up, and her erect white fox ears moved: "Oh, doesn't that mean we'll soon see a good show?!"

"990" The Saiguu-sama, whose personality feared the world wouldn't be chaotic, was immediately excited.

She and Raiden Makoto had similar personalities; she didn't have much dissatisfaction with Luo Li's own behavior, she just wanted to see how he would pass Raiden Ei's test.

Ei's personality was very stubborn; originally only Luo Li could persuade her, and now the person who provoked her was the person himself, so it was just right to see the result.

Yae Miko caught a glimpse of the Matriarch's schadenfreude, her lips moved, but in the end, she didn't say anything.

You are happy, but what about me?

Or... pay with my body?

Thinking of Asase Hibiki, Miko began to seriously consider the feasibility of this move.

Raiden Makoto stood up and said: "He'll be here soon, why don't you hide, so as not to be exposed directly later."

The complaining Raiden Shogun big sister moved to behind the screen next to Raiden Ei, her figure well hidden.

Kitsune Saiguu and Yae Miko followed suit, hiding behind the screens on both sides.

"Makoto is right, I just want to see what kind of flower he can say."

After a low laugh, Kitsune Saiguu sat upright, pulling Yae Miko to sit together.

Raiden Makoto coughed lightly: "Silence."

A moment later, the main hall returned to silence, with only Raiden Ei returning to her cold and frozen expression to continue handling the official business on the memorials.

The rustling sound of writing continued, repeating over and over.

Even though one-fifth of the incense stick hadn't burned out, Raiden Ei felt that a long time had passed.

Usually, perhaps after handling the memorials for a while, the incense stick would be burned out.

But now, she occasionally glanced at the sandalwood, only to find that the burning speed was unbearably slow.

Between anxiety and hesitation, she wondered whether to send someone to see if there was any accident, but thinking that her sister and Kitsune Saiguu were here, she had to suppress her thoughts.

After a difficult moment.

Until two different footsteps appeared outside the main hall, Raiden Ei, whose mind was scattered, suddenly lifted her heart, and her body instantly tensed up.

He's here!

"Arrived!"

Looking at the familiar building and gate that couldn't be more familiar, Luo Li's long-silent heart pounded.

This was a feeling he had never had when returning to Mondstadt and Liyue after five hundred years.

Probably because here, he could find his home.

Whether in Mondstadt or Liyue, the traces of Luo Li's existence had been completely erased.

Both Old Mondstadt and the current Mondstadt were ruled by humans, with gods at most acting as guides.

The traces of the gods were very faint, almost invisible.

And in Liyue, more of his energy was invested in Guili Plains, but unfortunately, Guili Plains had already been destroyed.

The current Liyue was completely on a different level from the era he was in; there were too many changes.

Only in Inazuma, everything was not much different from five hundred years ago.

The people he cared about were still sitting inside waiting for his return.

This sense of belonging was exactly why Luo Li couldn't forget it.

Mikoshi Chiyo said softly: "If you're ready, go in. I believe Her Highness Ei's pain from your disappearance is even greater than mine."

Chiyo didn't doubt this point; although Ei didn't show much pain, everything that happened in Inazuma afterward represented her wounded heart.

Luo Li was silent for a moment and stepped into the Tenshukaku alone.

Mikoshi Chiyo didn't follow in; in her opinion, the subsequent occasion was more suitable for two people to chat alone.

Unfortunately, she clearly guessed wrong.

Inside the Tenshukaku!

The elongated shadow, under the illumination of the sunlight, instantly obscured the originally bright light into dimness...

The noble and supreme body sitting above naturally noticed this.

"Who?"

Even though she knew who was coming, Raiden Ei still asked.

The hand holding the pen exerted force, and it was only with great difficulty that she suppressed the trembling in her voice.

Staring at the enchanting face directly above that looked almost exactly like Raiden Makoto's, Luo Li's originally anxious mood before entering dissipated, and he gained unprecedented tranquility.

Before, he was still thinking about how to persuade the other party after arriving, and what to do if Ei didn't forgive him as expected.

But coming here, he completely abandoned these plans.

Familiar face!

Familiar beauty mark!

Familiar cold temperament!

A posture that makes people look up from a high position, the most noble woman in this world.

An excellent opponent for sparring, the shadow warrior who loves him, the god who rules Inazuma.

The figure above possessed multiple identities.

However, in the end, it only turned into two words.

"Ei... I'm back."

Her eyes flickered slightly, and Raiden Ei, hearing the familiar voice calling her name, couldn't help but respond subconsciously.

The words reached her lips, but she ultimately forced herself to endure.

She slowly raised her head, and her peerless beauty was taken into Luo Li's eyes.

Although it was the same face as Makoto, the style and charm of the two were completely different.

1.6 For a moment, he was actually lost in thought.

Being appreciated by the presumptuous gaze again, the scorching heat and the gaze mixed with deep feelings made Raiden Ei's heart very uneasy.

If anyone else dared to look at her like this, they would have long been torn into pieces by the thunder's rage and removed from the world.

Only the person in front of her looked at her like this; Ei wouldn't be angry, but instead, a trace of joy would arise spontaneously.

Even if she still resented him in her heart, and the anger and the uncontrollable urge to question him surged in her heart, she couldn't hide the fact that Raiden Ei was indeed in love with this young man with a demonic nature like a curse.

This feeling made her recognize it clearly and deeply over five hundred years, and no matter how much time passed, she couldn't forget it.

Even if the Heavenly Principles imposed erosion and all memories were cut off, she believed she could imprint it into her body's instinct.
