Chapter 726

~5 min read 937 words

Although she couldn't use her own power,

this vessel of Yae Miko's was itself no weakling.

So under these circumstances, the two of them were fighting back and forth evenly.

But this was, after all, a battle between gods!

The pressure of the battlefield was not something an ordinary person could withstand.

So the citizens on the platform had no choice but to leave.

But such a spectacular battle was rarely seen in ordinary times,

let alone that the two combatants were General my lord and the Grand Commissioner my lord!

This was extremely rare even in Inazuma, or in all of Teyvat.

Driven by the mentality of watching the show and eating melons, most of the citizens did not leave.

Instead, they chose a spot that wouldn't be disturbed by the pressure and began watching.

That left only Han Feng still on the platform side.

In a nation of spectators, there was only one person questioning his life.

That was Thoma, who was still kneeling before the Thousand-Armed Hundred-Eyed Statue.

"What exactly is happening?"

Thoma's face was now blank with confusion.

Things had happened so fast that he hadn't even reacted【18】 Wasn't I supposed to be having my Vision confiscated?

Shouldn't it be him who has his Vision confiscated?

How did the Grand Commissioner suddenly barge in?

And the two of them even started fighting Raiden Shogun?!

Besides, if you're going to fight, then fight, but could you do it a little farther away from me?

I'm just an ordinary housekeeping officer!

I can't bear the pressure of you two powerful beings……

Sensing the danger on the scene, Thoma silently moved his body backward.

Losing his Vision was one thing, but he didn't want to lose his life along with it.

"Here's your Vision back, hurry up and leave!"

Raiden Ei, who was in the middle of the fight, saw Thoma's cautious look and couldn't help finding it a little funny.

With a wave of her hand, she directly tossed the Vision she had just seized to Thoma.

"Thank you, Grand Commissioner!"

Seeing his Vision return, Thoma's eyes welled with tears.

That's great!

His precious baby had finally returned!

"Good chance!"

Seeing this scene, Kamisato Ayaka's eyes lit up.

She hurriedly ordered her hidden subordinates nearby to go rescue him.

Raiden Shogun paid this no heed.

It was just a Vision!

In her eyes, this "Yae Miko" was now the key target of her attention.

"Young Lady, shall we leave now?"

Returning to Kamisato Ayaka's side, Thoma hurriedly asked.

After this experience, he didn't want to try it again.

In a bit he would find a place to hide.

Otherwise, once the General found a moment, his Vision might still not be safe.

"You leave for now, I'll stay here and continue observing the situation!"

Kamisato Ayaka slowly shook her head.

After such a big incident, she couldn't leave now.

She had to keep watching at all times.

"Alright then, Young Lady, I'll be going first!"

After a moment's hesitation, Thoma also nodded.

The main thing was that the Young Lady was safe here,

otherwise he would never have left just like that.

Then he hurried off with the others toward the Komore Teahouse.

Until a better place came along,

for Thoma, that place was the safest.

Watching Thoma leave, Kamisato Ayaka breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, her gaze turned toward a certain direction on the platform.

Facing the might of the General and the Grand Commissioner, the citizens, including herself, had no choice but to leave.

But that black-haired youth could actually still stand there with a smile on his face.

This made Kamisato Ayaka a little curious.

"It seems this person came with the Grand Commissioner, I wonder what kind of person he is?"

At this moment, the battle before the Thousand-Armed Hundred-Eyed Statue had entered a white-hot stage.

The lightning strikes felt truly exhilarating.

On one hand, the joy of reuniting with her sister; on the other, a chance to vent the worries in her heart.

This battle couldn't have been more fitting for her.

Yet Raiden Ei grew increasingly aware that something was off.

"Why does the Divine Child's fighting style resemble the Lady's so closely?"

Raiden Ei's brows knit once more.

Five hundred years ago, she and her sister Makoto had sparred countless times.

So she was extremely familiar with her moves.

But her sister was already gone.

Where could Yae Miko have learned these techniques?

Thinking of her friend's sudden change in temperament,

as well as her style of wielding the wooden umbrella,

and the familiar moves she used,

a wild notion suddenly flashed through Raiden Ei's mind.

"Could it be…?"

"Impossible. Makoto already perished in that war — you personally went to confirm it yourself."

The General was very familiar with Raiden Ei, so she naturally knew what she was thinking.

"But only this can explain the strangeness about the Divine Child!

Eliminate all impossibilities, and whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth."

Raiden Ei clung firmly to her own conjecture.

At the thought that the other party might be connected to her sister, Raiden Ei's heart began to stir with excitement.

"But it's also possible this is the Divine Child's scheme — you know such a possibility isn't out of the question!"

The General kept a rational mind and did not believe in such a possibility.

In an instant, their two viewpoints clashed.

This directly affected the outcome of the battle.

Faced with Raiden Makoto's suddenly devastating strike,

the General, caught off guard, was sent flying outright.

As luck would have it,
