Chapter 3

Hot Spring Commission!

Its geographical location is below Tenshukaku, opposite the Tenryou Commission.

Under the leadership of the Kanjou Commission, it began to build on a large scale until it was completed. Except for a very few insiders, many officials of the Shogunate did not know what this antique building was for.

The reason is that Inazuma does not know the term "hot spring."

Because it is not like Natlan, where volcanic activity is frequent and can produce natural hot springs, until a young man from the Kanjou Commission proposed that the people of Inazuma could also enjoy the warmth of hot water.

Thus, the Hot Spring Commission was established.

That young man was the ancestor of the future Hiiragi clan, Hiiragi Hirotsugu.

Of course, before satisfying the public, it must first be experienced by the great incarnation of thunder, the Almighty Shogun.

For this reason, Hiiragi Hirotsugu introduced high-efficiency boilers from Snezhnaya to increase the water temperature, and also collected precious minerals and plants from various countries to put into it, spending a lot of manpower and material resources.

And today, the Imperial Hot Spring prepared for the Almighty Shogun has welcomed its first batch of guests.

Under the respectful service of the Imperial Hot Spring receptionist, a group of people who can be said to be at the very top of the Inazuma pyramid enters the Hot Spring Commission mansion prepared for the god.

Such a large place is not only for the god to use, but also open to Shogunate officials, but it is separated from front to back and divided according to official rank.

However, there is a small episode in the middle: neither the people nor the officials of Inazuma know that the Electro Archon is twin sisters. In their vision, there has always been only one, so Luo Li lets the servants retreat in advance.

"Finally able to enjoy it, comfortable."

Stepping into the artificial hot spring courtyard where cherry blossoms drift, Luo Li, wearing only a bath towel around his waist, enters the luxurious and exquisite pool first, leaning comfortably against the cold artificial rock emitting cold air.

Because Makoto, Ei, and Kitsune Saiguu need more time to change clothes, Luo Li truly feels the pleasure of having the place to himself.

Just as he is squinting his eyes, a crisp prompt sounds in his ear.

[Ding! The 2,481st sign-in time has ended! Do you want to sign in?]

"Oh, another year has passed."

Luo Li does not hesitate and confirms the sign-in immediately.

From the initial expectation of what the system would give him when it awakened, he is now calm.

For more than two thousand years, Luo Li has obtained things that even he cannot remember clearly, just like the daily "grain payment" between husband and wife, lacking some excitement.

It can't be helped; this longevity sign-in system has almost no presence, only coming once a year at a fixed time. It doesn't know how to come up with new tricks, so it's just a moment of pleasure and then it's gone.

[Confirmed! Sign-in successful!]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the talent: Balor's Demonic Eye]

"The prototype of the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, better than nothing."

Glancing at it casually, Luo Li mutters and opens his own panel.

"With my current strength, except for the relatively vague strength of the First Throne or the Second Throne, I can almost walk sideways throughout Teyvat."

For Luo Li, the Seven Archons are completely out of the question now; only the level of the Heavenly Principles Phanes and the four original shadows is unclear.

However, even if they are taken as hypothetical enemies, if he uses his full strength, safety should not be a big problem.

But Teyvat is deep, so he must be prepared for the worst.

Before transmigrating, he had only barely waited for the Enkanomiya map to open, revealing only a small part of the fog on this continent, and there are more answers hidden in the dark.

Just as Luo Li is thinking, several light footsteps disrupt his thoughts.

Accompanied by a fragrant breeze, three graceful and noble women appear by the imperial pool, immediately attracting his gaze.

It must be said that without the cover of outer clothing and decorations, the charm of the Raiden twins and the Hakushin matriarch increases rather than decreases.

"Kept you waiting, respected guest. Would you like to experience the massage technique passed down by the Hakushin clan? It's very comfortable."

Kitsune Saiguu, who steps into the pool first and approaches him, pretending to be a servant, utters heart-pounding words with corners of her mouth that seem to be raised at any time.

Clearly in a scene of mixed bathing with the opposite sex, she does not feel uncomfortable at all, but instead shows her figure generously.

"To think you'd play this game."

Watching Kitsune Saiguu's eager appearance, Luo Li considers for less than a second and says seriously.

"To tell you the truth, I am also quite proficient in massage. As an exchange, I can help you relax later."

"That would be great. Makoto, Ei, do you want to try?"

Not caring about avoiding suspicion at all, Kitsune Saiguu giggles and waves at the two.

Luo Li also looks at the two at the other end of the pool.

"This... that's fine."

Makoto, holding the little fox, is quite moved, her pretty face flushed with a faint crimson, perhaps due to the influence of the hot spring water.

Ei, on the other hand, casts a slightly cold gaze. Her personality is slightly conservative and dull. Although she has a good impression of Luo Li, she will not rashly agree to such a request.

At least... choose a time when no one is around.

Realizing that she was inexplicably glanced at by Ei, Luo Li is confused and asks.

"Speaking of which, what is the elegant name of the inscription on the sword offered at this divine festival?"

His question makes Ei divert her thoughts for a moment, falling into distress.

Because Makoto intends to gradually hand over many affairs of Inazuma to her sister, the right to name the Mikoshi Nagamitsu this time also belongs entirely to her.

Seeing that Ei is in a difficult position, Luo Li takes the initiative to suggest: "I remember that the one who won the honor of offering the sword is the Amenoma clan, one of the five traditions. Why not name it 'Hakuen Mitsumitsu Amenoma'?"

He has no guilt about directly plagiarizing the name of the future Iwakura lineage.

After all, with him as a variable, it is uncertain whether Mikoshi Nagamitsu will be born.

At least until now, the Oni girl Mikoshi Chiyo has no intention of considering it for herself.

"Hakuen Mitsumitsu Amenoma? Very good, let's set the name like this."

Ei's eyes light up, and she has no dissatisfaction with him overstepping his authority, but instead agrees immediately.

"What do you think, Makoto?"

Raiden Makoto watches her sister with a bit of doting. Since she has transitioned the power to her, she will not interfere regardless of the process.

"You decide."

Not to mention the whispering of the twin sisters.

On the other side of the pool, Kitsune Saiguu's slender hands move on Luo Li's shoulders and back, asking softly.

"Guest, is the pressure appropriate?"

Completely in the role of a maid.

Amazing, the "thousand-faced person" passed down by the Hakushin lineage must have been started by you.

Enjoying the service from the dignified Lady Saiguu, Luo Li cannot help but sigh.

"Comfortable, but why does it feel a bit sticky and itchy?"

"Don't mind it, it's just the fox fur I shed."

"..."

Is shedding fur also hereditary?

He does not notice that the little fox in Makoto's arms, which has already developed high intelligence, is staring at this side with its lively eyes, full of doubt and a little shyness.

Why is Lady Saiguu so close to that bad guy?
