Chapter 99

Seeing the exhausted spirit in Chiyo's back, Yae Miko sighed for her; she herself was no different, only forcing herself to hold on.

Discovering that the Hakushin matriarch, who had finished her official business, was still here, Ei asked softly: "Miko, is there anything else?"

Noticing that those originally gorgeous and colorful purple eyes were now like a pool of stagnant water, Yae Miko was silent for a moment and said.

"Lady Ei, later I will have Yae take over the position of the Grand Shrine; too many things have happened over these years, and I am a bit tired, so I want to take the opportunity to rest for a while."

"Where are you going?"

"I don't know; perhaps I will travel to various countries, perhaps I will stay in some place to open a small shop, or perhaps I will live in seclusion in the mountains."

"Are you leaving too?"

Murmuring in words only she could hear, Raiden Ei turned and agreed in one breath: "Fine, the Grand Shrine will be managed by you alone; there is no need to discuss this matter with me."

Yae Miko bowed and slowly exited the Tenshukaku.

Now that Ei had ascended as the Raiden Shogun, although there was no change for the people, they knew that the lively and gentle deity from before could never return.

In the future, I fear she could only be remembered through the sound of her voice and her appearance in memories.

When she walked out of the Tenshukaku and heard the faint shouts of victory from Inazuma City, "The eternal path is magnificent, Narukami is eternal," she felt it was extremely ironic.

The person holding eternity had already changed, and the two Excellencies had ultimately been buried in the Abyss.

Yet this pain was something only they would know.
