Chapter 439

~5 min read 847 words

If you are unjust, don't blame me for being unrighteous.

Yae Miko took a deep breath, temporarily suppressing the anger in her heart.

"Could it be that Father treats me like a fool?"

Such a reason could be said out loud?

Luo Li heard it and felt something was wrong; it was normal for Kokomi to call him that, as she was completely a spoiled daughter.

Changing it to Yae Miko, it belonged to a completely different style.

"Of course not, everything I just said is true."

He wasn't the only one who proposed recording the dark history; after understanding the details, Kitsune Saiguu was also quite enthusiastic.

Facing Miko's expression of complete distrust, Luo Li felt very helpless.

He admitted that he did have a little bit of a prank in mind when he proposed it, but it was only a "tiny bit."

"Does Ei know you came here?"

Thinking of the reason Yae Miko gave for coming to see him at the beginning, Luo Li felt unexpectedly uneasy.

His subtext was very clear; he suspected that Ei didn't know he was here, otherwise, she would have come to find him personally long ago.

But not necessarily, what if?

So at this time, he had to get the news from Miko's mouth.

"Oh my, is Father asking for my help?"

Revealing the fox's signature cunning smile, Yae Miko's bare feet in wooden clogs swayed, and she seemed to be in a very good mood.

"Stop beating around the bush, hurry up and tell me."

Patting her plump curve behind her with annoyance, Luo Li's tone mixed with a command made Miko hum and turn her head away.

She was no longer that little fox; she didn't buy this.

Of course, she also dared to do so because she relied on Luo Li's doting on her.

That doting, which had begun to show signs since childhood, she didn't believe would be exhausted after five hundred years.

Obviously, her blind confidence was correct; Luo Li did hold feelings for Yae Miko that were different from ordinary people.

After all, she was the little thing he had raised from childhood to human form; how could he not invest feelings?

"Tell me, what do I have to do to pry open your little mouth?"

Realizing that being tough was completely useless, Luo Li softened his tone.

"It's very simple, you just need to do this."

Taking the initiative to press his hand to the corner of her mouth, then gently parting her lips, Miko revealed a simple and innocent expression.

Playing dumb, right?

One moment enchanting, one moment simple, are you a master of changing faces too?

Although he knew that the current Miko's personality must be very strange, it was really a headache when he actually encountered it.

Mainly because she had no weaknesses or privacy in front of him, and there was no boundary of so-called bottom lines.

Since everything had been seen by him, there were no secrets, so naturally, she could do whatever she wanted.

Commonly known as breaking the jar and letting it shatter.

Seeing Luo Li's helpless look, Miko, who had finally vented her anger, said as if her conscience had been pricked.

"Before I came, the Shogun-sama probably didn't know; as for now, I don't know."

Miko didn't think everything she arranged was very appropriate; since the Traveler could be tricked out by her, if she went to see the Raiden Shogun, perhaps something unexpected would happen.

"Hmm? You mean..."

"According to the time, before yesterday, the Traveler had already seen the Shogun-sama; as for what they talked about, I don't know."

"..."

It's broken; Luo Li felt that everything seemed to have exceeded the development trajectory he had expected at the beginning.

Is it too late for him to slip away now?

…………

Narukami Island!

Inazuma City!

Accompanied by a loud thunderclap.

Two figures appeared in the Tenshukaku.

Almost identical figures holding hands, standing in front of the magnificent and noble hall.

"It's been a long time since I've been back; it hasn't changed at all. I really miss it."

Raiden Makoto looked at the Tenshukaku with misty eyes, and the familiar scenery came into view.

The cherry blossoms floating in the sky, the Triple Tomoe Seal she had set, still hung high above the Tenshukaku.

And at the top, the armor and emblem representing the majesty of the Electro Archon were even more vivid.

Raiden Ei also said with nostalgia: "Since you and Luo Li left, I have turned this Tenshukaku into a kingdom of eternity; every blade of grass and every tree is a scene that will last forever."

Raiden Makoto chuckled: "Alright, didn't I come back? That guy is also near Watatsumi Island now; everything hasn't changed much."

Hearing her sister mention the whereabouts of that guy, Raiden Ei bit her lip, her eyes full of resentment.

Only after the sisters opened their hearts did they understand that he hadn't just escaped from the Abyss recently, but had left the Abyss and returned to the Teyvat continent years ago.
