These people...
What exactly is their relationship?
Holding a wine cup in hand, Ei silently scanned everyone present, thinking this to Herself in silence.
"I'll go get another pot of wine." Seeing that the wine had all been poured out, Miko wanted to go fetch another pot.
Of course, the most important reason was that she didn't want to stay here any longer; it was better to leave quickly.
Wait!
Could it be that between the Anemo Archon and this human...
There is also that kind of relationship???
Suddenly, Ei thought of a very absurd possibility, only She couldn't be certain of it right now.
Or rather, could such a possibility truly exist?
Thinking of this, Ei almost unconsciously drank the wine in Her cup.
Forget it...
Drink first...
Hmm?
Looking at the empty wine cup, Ei was stunned for a moment, seeming unaware of when the wine had run out.
When did I drink it?
"I say, Kaito, are you planning to add the Raiden Shogun to your harem as well?" Just as Ei was wondering why Her wine cup was empty, She once again heard words that greatly astonished Her, and they came from the mouth of the Anemo Archon.
However, surprise was one thing; facing such words, She still had to say something, even if the other party was the Anemo Archon.
"Lord Anemo Archon..."
"Oh my, Raiden Shogun, don't mind it. I'm just using you as an example to talk about this guy who only goes around looking for women."
Before the Raiden Shogun could finish speaking, Wendy had already spoken up.
"So..." Feeling that this was a good opportunity to voice the doubts in Her heart, Ei decided to ask clearly, "Your relationship is..."
"That's right, just what you think."
Before Ei could finish Her sentence, Wendy had already nodded, acknowledging the question She was about to ask.
Although She hadn't actually asked it yet, Wendy knew what She wanted to ask, so she admitted it very readily.
Ei: "???"
Looking at Wendy, who wore a calm expression, with a face full of surprise, Ei truly didn't know what expression to make at this moment.
Although She had already harbored such guesses previously, upon receiving confirmation from the Anemo Archon Himself, She still couldn't help but feel extremely shocked.
Why would a god...
Have such a relationship with a human?
At this moment, Ei couldn't help but recall a time long ago. She felt that the 'Her' of that time absolutely, positively would not have imagined today's situation—the kind where She wouldn't believe it even if beaten to death.
Has the Anemo Archon become free to this extent?
And what of His subjects?
Is He ignoring them too?
Once again, She unconsciously picked up the empty wine cup wanting to drink some wine, but Ei only drank in loneliness.
"Why are you so surprised, Raiden Shogun? There might be things that surprise you even more later on."
Still wearing that calm expression, Wendy spoke plainly.
"Perhaps... it is I who am ignorant and ill-informed." Putting down the empty wine cup and looking at the Anemo Archon whose expression hadn't changed much, Ei waited for a good while before slowly saying this sentence.
After all, having stayed in that space for a long time, Ei couldn't help but wonder if Her astonishment was due to not having come out for so long.
However, to verify this guess, perhaps She needed to find other gods to ask about the situation.
But for a god like Her who hadn't stepped out for so long, who else could She go to?
Hmm...
Miko?
At this moment, Ei once again thought of Miko.
Although Miko was not a god, she certainly knew many things.
"You haven't been out for so long, so you're definitely ignorant and ill-informed." regarding what the Raiden Shogun said, Wendy seemed to agree very much.
"Yes, indeed." Seeing the other party say this about Her, Ei nodded as well.
"Distinguished guests, I am back again."
At this moment, Miko appeared at the entrance once more.
Actually, she really wanted to just run away like this, but after thinking about it, she didn't run.
There was no helping it; even if she ran now, she would definitely have to face the music later.
So, it was better not to run and just come back like this.
"Miko, you sit down too." Worried that Miko would run off directly, Ei told her to sit down immediately this time.
Although She could go catch her back later, it was better to keep an eye on her now.
"Me? That's not appropriate, is it?"
Unexpectedly hearing Ei tell her to sit down, Miko expressed that it wasn't appropriate.
Of course, if Ei weren't here, she would feel it was very appropriate.
But with Ei right here now, she was truly restricted in too many ways.
Especially since Wendy was the 'Anemo Archon', this little fox didn't dare to mock someone in front of Ei, otherwise she would definitely have to face the music.
"You can actually be this polite? Miko."
Looking at Miko who was still standing, Wendy smiled.
This stinking brat...
She's putting on an act...
Glancing at Wendy, Miko really wanted to hit someone.
Although she couldn't beat Wendy, that didn't stop her from having such thoughts.
It was just that she couldn't show even a hint of this thought right now; otherwise, Ei would definitely find trouble with her. She had to be careful about this point.
"That is only natural. This Lady Guuji has always been this way."
Looking at Wendy, Miko said this with a smile.
She had decided: no matter what Wendy said now, she wouldn't have any special reaction, just like her usual self.
No matter if the floodwaters surged to the sky, she would face it with a smile.
Must be calm...
Calm and peaceful~
In the interval waiting for Wendy to speak, Miko repeatedly hinted to herself in her heart to be calm.
She knew that Wendy would definitely say things that made her want to hit someone; she was already very clear on this point after their previous interactions.
Wait...
If Ei considers Wendy to be the Anemo Archon right now...
Then can this point be utilized?
Suddenly thinking of this, Miko fell into deep thought.
Honestly, she hadn't thought of this before.
She didn't know if it was because Wendy looked nothing like a god to her,
Or simply because she just hadn't thought of it.
Of course, she had thought of it now, only she hadn't figured out how to utilize it yet.
Moreover, regarding this little girl Wendy, she felt she might not be able to handle her; she would need Kaito's help.
These two...
What counts as their relationship now?
Silently looking at Miko and the Anemo Archon beside her, Ei couldn't help but think this.
Because right now, both of them had that kind of relationship with that young man, so Ei was curious about what the relationship between them was.
Or to put it another way, whose position was higher?
The Anemo Archon?
Or Miko?
Forget it...
I still can't figure out why the Anemo Archon would also do things that only mortals would do.
After thinking it over and over, Ei finally abandoned Her thoughts.
