Chapter 718: The Plot Arrives Early, Toma Is Captured
The Sakoku Decree involves policies between nations,
and on top of that, Yoimiya doesn't really understand it well.
So she offered no opinion on it.
But the Vision Hunt Decree is something she has felt firsthand.
She had seen many people, after their Visions were confiscated,
become utterly dispirited.
The luckier ones merely lost their power.
But the worse off forgot even their memories and wishes.
Spending every day in a muddled daze.
As if they had lost all hope in life.
Although she knew this was a choice the General made for eternity,
such an eternity was not what they wanted.
Yet she could not change the General,
so she pinned her hopes on Yae Miko, the Great Divine Prophetess of the Narukami Great Shrine.
Perhaps through her, the General could be persuaded.
"The Vision Hunt Decree, you say…"
Raiden Makoto also let out a "nine-five-three" sigh.
Although she didn't know much about it,
judging from Yae Miko's and the girl before her reactions,
it was probably no good a measure.
But she could not blame her sister too harshly either.
After suffering such a severe blow, some change in temperament was only natural.
If blame were truly to be assigned, it could only fall on her own head.
Had she survived that five-hundred-year war,
everything would have been different.
"Once I get back, I must change that tragedy!"
Raiden Makoto secretly resolved in her heart!
"Set your heart at ease, I will go talk to Ei! Inazuma is fortunate to have such a warm-hearted girl like you!"
Raiden Makoto reached out and placed a hand on Yoimiya's shoulder, speaking earnestly.
"I… I'm not all that great, really!"
Seeing "Yae Miko" suddenly being so familiar with her,
Yoimiya scratched her head, a little embarrassed.
She felt the Guuji today was strangely off.
Not only was she carrying a wooden parasol, her temperament was also unusually gentle.
It gave her a feeling like a spring breeze.
Completely different from that sly, cunning air of before.
Still, she rather liked it.
"Have faith in yourself!"
Raiden Makoto smiled and patted her shoulder twice more as encouragement,
then left together with Han Feng.
Leaving behind a beaming Yoimiya all on her own.
