Raiden Ei hugged Raiden Makoto and smiled: "Yes, sister."
Although she could count the number of times she had hugged her sister, it did not prevent her from cherishing this reunion. It had been five hundred years since the disaster in Khaenri'ah.
Lady Kitsune Saiguu and Yae Miko looked at Raiden Makoto, who had reappeared in front of them, their eyes filled with memories.
It was as if the memories had returned to that peaceful time five hundred years ago.
"What a miracle."
A gentle breeze blew, scattering the petals of the Sacred Sakura Tree, making this reunion scene as beautiful as a fairy tale.
Behind Takumi, Kokomi covered her lips in shock.
What just happened?
Did this god of Celestia resurrect the previous Narukami?
But she quickly calmed down—after all, if Lady Kitsune Saiguu had been resurrected, then there was no limit to what was possible.
After all, Lord Takumi was a god above the Shogun herself.
The joy of reunion did not make Raiden Makoto forget about Takumi, Lord Tianli. She quickly walked up to him and respectfully saluted: "Lord Takumi, thank you for resurrecting me."
Having said this, she raised her head, her lavender eyes shimmering with moisture, as gentle as if they could speak.
"If you are not busy, I could cook a sumptuous meal for you instead of Ei. I am still quite good at cooking."
Takumi looked at Raiden Makoto, who looked like a newlywed wife, and smiled.
"Alright, I'll give it a try. Your cooking skills must have improved a lot."
He knew what Raiden Makoto wanted, but he didn't expose her intentions. It wouldn't be as fun if he did.
Raiden Makoto's strength lay in her emotional intelligence and governance, while her martial prowess and technical abilities were not as developed. On the contrary, Raiden Ei's talents were focused on strength and technology, while her emotional intelligence was sometimes lacking.
Raiden Makoto understood emotions just like humans did, and she used those emotions to try and please him.
Tsk tsk, she wants to be the law of Celestia, this high-intelligence Raiden Makoto. But she was still a bit behind the likes of the Great Dendro Archon.
The Great Dendro Archon had given everything without expecting anything in return.
Raiden Makoto nodded happily. "I will make sure to satisfy you, Lord Takumi."
Lord Tianli seemed to have a good impression of her and Ei—or, more accurately, he was attracted to their beautiful appearances.
Raiden Makoto had just been resurrected, and she, along with Lady Kitsune Saiguu, got busy at the Narukami Grand Shrine to entertain this unimaginable guest.
Takumi, as expected, enjoyed this treatment.
Under the Sacred Sakura Tree, surrounded by falling cherry blossoms, he lay with his head resting on Yae Miko's lap, playing with her fox tail while she fed him fruits.
"Lord Takumi, ah~"
Kokomi was making tea for him like a proper maid.
Just kidding, Inazuma's Shogun had already cooked for this god above Celestia. How could she, the head of Watatsumi, not serve tea and water?
Kokomi handed Takumi a cup of tea, her eyes full of curiosity.
What exactly was the identity of this god above Celestia?
Now that she was serving Lord Takumi, did that mean she was also Lord Takumi's shrine maiden?
Thinking of this, her cheeks turned red, and she felt a bit shy.
In Inazuma, a shrine maiden who served a god was equivalent to entrusting her life to that god.
Takumi smiled mischievously, finding this ornamental fish's random thoughts amusing.
But he liked it.
It was true—he liked beautiful women. After all, no man didn't like beautiful women.
He admitted it without hesitation: he was a beauty addict.
In no time, Raiden Makoto and Lady Kitsune Saiguu had prepared a sumptuous table of dishes. Compared to Ei's cooking, it was like heaven and hell.
Raiden Makoto leaned close to Takumi, personally feeding him. Her lavender eyes were moist and full of expectation. "Lord Takumi, I'm honored to serve you."
Her actions made her nervous, and her heart pounded.
On one hand, there was hope, and on the other, there was fear.
After all, a demon god's birth was against the laws of nature, and there was an instinctive fear of the Creator.
Takumi opened his mouth, enjoying Raiden Makoto's attentiveness.
Seeing Lord Tianli enjoy himself, Raiden Makoto felt relieved, her joy apparent as she moved even closer.
Raiden Ei blinked, watching her sister getting so close to Lord Tianli. Wasn't her sister afraid of offending him?
However, seeing that Lord Tianli didn't look angry, she couldn't help but feel reassured.
Kokomi and Lady Kitsune Saiguu stood by to help pour tea, each lost in their own thoughts.
Lady Kitsune Saiguu sighed, feeling as though her god had fallen for Lord Takumi, as if her daughter were getting married.
Kokomi felt as if she was witnessing epic-level gossip—gossip involving her own gods and a higher-ranking god.
Takumi spoke while enjoying Raiden Makoto's feeding and Yae Miko's shoulder massage: "Ei isn't suited to governing Inazuma. From now on, I leave it to you, Makoto."
Raiden Makoto looked at her sister and nodded. "Ei really isn't fit to run the country."
Raiden Ei was unperturbed. "Inazuma should indeed be managed by my sister. I will continue serving as the general."
Though she had held the position of Shogun for five hundred years, she had never truly governed the nation during that time—leaving it to her subordinates.
As a result, those subordinates had nearly led Inazuma to collapse.
After finishing the meal under the attentive care of Raiden Makoto and Yae Miko, Takumi asked Kokomi to lead him to her homeland of Watatsumi Island.
Kokomi, now feeling less intimidated by Takumi, grew bolder and asked curiously, "Is Lord Takumi going to resurrect Lord Orobashi?"
Takumi looked at the ornamental fish and replied teasingly, "What, does the little ornamental fish want to dabble in things on the level of gods?"
Kokomi hurriedly shook her head. "No, no, the people of Watatsumi Island are already part of Inazuma, and I am also under the General's command. I have no intention of rekindling Lord Orobashi's faith."
Takumi watched the ornamental fish's panicked explanation with amusement. Smart people always overthink.
"Just lead the way. The place I want to go is under the abyss, and it has nothing to do with the serpent. I don't like civil strife. You're a smart fish, right?"
Kokomi quickly nodded. "I am a smart fish." She immediately realized what she had said and complained, "I am not a fish."
Takumi's trip had two purposes.
The first was to capture Reindot, and then use the connection to the power of the alien traveler who fell in love with the ancestor of the fairies to track down the group of extremely evil riders.
Once located, he planned to deal with them all at once.
Because their power came from 'outside the world,' they could not be located within Teyvat. But the powers of those who were the culprits of Khaenri'ah all originated from the same source.
So, as long as he captured one of them, he could locate the others.
Heh, my friends, do you want to go for a wholesale deal? I've got plenty of nails for you, and I guarantee you'll be satisfied.
