"Her Excellency, the General, must already know. That Yellow Fox has arrived in Inazuma."
As the Damselette said this, her face was filled with a wicked, confident smile, as if she held everything in her grasp.
The Raiden Shogun's eyes narrowed, then closed, and she said indifferently:
"The envoy from Snezhnaya specifically came to see me just to say something like this?"
Facing the Raiden Shogun's coldness, the Damselette was not surprised, and instead chuckled:
"Don't be so impatient, Her Excellency, the General. Next, I will tell you some secrets that only we in Snezhnaya know, regarding the Liyue Archon."
At these words, the Raiden Shogun opened her eyes again, but this time, her purple pupils flickered with dazzling lightning, emitting a terrifying aura.
Even the confident Damselette retreated several steps under the Raiden Shogun's imposing presence.
This is a simple truth.
In front of someone powerful enough, even if you know they won't act against you, fear will inevitably arise in your heart.
The Damselette knew that the one before her was a puppet who only acted according to logic and would never strike at her.
Yet, the Raiden Shogun's imposing aura still startled her.
After retreating a few steps, the Damselette, slightly annoyed by her momentary lapse, patted the dust off her clothes and whispered:
"Her Excellency, the General, must also know about the news of the Liyue Archon's death, but in reality, the Archon is still alive.
All the news of his death was deliberately faked and spread by him."
The Raiden Shogun remained silent, seemingly unfazed on the surface, but the subtle changes in her pupils still revealed a hint of surprise.
The Damselette was very satisfied with the Raiden Shogun's reaction, so she chuckled again:
"As for why the Archon did this, let's not discuss it for now.
What I want to tell Her Excellency today is that the Archon of Liyue is no longer a mortal Archon.
Because the Geo Element Gnosis has been taken by the Yellow Fox."
The Raiden Shogun pondered for a long time before speaking indifferently with a placid expression:
"So, envoy from Snezhnaya, what is your intention in telling me all this?"
The Raiden Shogun's reaction slightly surprised the Damselette.
She had originally thought that saying these words would provoke a strong reaction from the Raiden Shogun.
But now, it seems the Raiden Shogun already knew?
Although the Damselette was puzzled, she still wore a seductive smile and said:
"Hehe, it's nothing much, just to warn Her Excellency that the Yellow Fox is an unstable factor.
He took Liyue's Gnosis in Liyue, and then came to Inazuma.
I imagine Her Excellency, the General, would not want such an unstable factor to remain in Inazuma, would she?
This also goes against Her Excellency, the General's, concept of eternity, doesn't it?"
The Damselette's purpose in coming to Tenshukaku today was none other than to promote the promulgation of the Vision Hunt Decree and the Sakoku Decree.
To this end, she needed to exaggerate and distort the facts without being exposed.
It would suffice to make the Raiden Shogun realize that the Yellow Fox's existence would threaten Inazuma's eternity.
The Damselette's words made the Raiden Shogun close her eyes again: "Envoy from Snezhnaya, if there is nothing else, please leave."
The Damselette frowned slightly, somewhat dissatisfied with the effectiveness of her trip.
But the Raiden Shogun had already issued an eviction order, so she dared not linger.
So the Damselette chuckled: "In that case, I will visit again next time, Her Excellency, the General."
Thus, the Damselette, with elegant yet alluring steps, slowly walked out of Tenshukaku.
After the Damselette left Tenshukaku, the Raiden Shogun sat down again and meditated deeply.
After a long while, there was a knock on the door of Tenshukaku.
The one who entered was Kujou Sara, the most loyal person to the Electro Archon in all of Inazuma.
Kujou Sara knelt on one knee before the Raiden Shogun:
"Her Excellency, the General, has summoned your subordinate; what are your commands?"
The Raiden Shogun looked at Kujou Sara indifferently and asked:
"Are there any recent sightings of the Yellow Fox?"
Kujou Sara pondered for a moment and replied: "Recently, the patrolling soldiers of the Tenryou Commission have not sighted The person wearing the Yellow Fox Mask again."
"Is that so?" The Raiden Shogun stood up and said softly:
"Summon the head of the Kujou Clan. The Vision Hunt Decree will be implemented starting today."
Kujou Sara was slightly startled but immediately bowed her head: "Yes!"
...Inazuma City, Akizuki Bathhouse.
Yuuko, having finished his hot spring bath, came to the lounge.
He took a bottle of dango milk, tore off the paper seal, and drank it all in one gulp.
"Ha, a bottle of Milk after a hot spring bath is truly the best."
Just as Yuuko finished his Milk, a small figure emerged from the women's bath and entered the lounge.
It was a young girl with short gray hair, wearing a white wrap provided by the hot spring bathhouse.
Her cheeks were flushed, and her hair was still slightly damp, giving her a unique charm.
Seeing the girl come out, Yuuko smiled: "Sayu, how was it? Was the hot spring comfortable?"
Sayu shook her slightly flushed cheeks and nodded: "Mmm... soaking in the hot spring... is indeed very relaxing for the body..."
"That's good." Yuuko nodded, then went to the counter and bought another bottle of dango milk, handing it to Sayu:
"Here, after a hot spring bath, you should drink a bottle of Milk."
Sayu looked at the bottled Milk Yuuko offered, hesitated for a moment, then took it and tore off the paper seal.
She slowly drank it.
Perhaps because the bottle opening was too large, when she finished drinking, Sayu's mouth was stained with a lot of Milk.
"You have Milk all over your mouth, wipe it off." Seeing this, Yuuko naturally picked up a towel and helped Sayu wipe her mouth.
Sayu did not resist Yuuko's actions.
Instead, she looked at the empty bottle and muttered softly: "Delicious..."
"Delicious? Then have another bottle." Yuuko said with a smile as he helped Sayu wipe her mouth.
Savoring the taste of the dango milk, Sayu nodded.
Yuuko smiled, then went to the counter and bought another bottle of dango milk for Sayu.
Then Sayu gulped down another bottle... After finishing, Sayu muttered again:
"So delicious... And... if I drink this... Sayu should be able to grow taller, right...?"
"You also need to plan your sleep reasonably, you know." Yuuko reminded her from the side.
After a pause, Yuuko smiled again:
"How was your hot spring experience today?"
Sayu pondered for a long while, then slowly said: "The hot spring... was very comfortable... the Milk... was also very delicious..."
Afterward, Sayu politely bowed her head to Yuuko: "Thank you... for letting Sayu experience these things..."
Yuuko smiled:
"Anyway, I happen to have two discount coupons, no point in not using them. Well, it's time to change back into our clothes and go back, I'll wait for you outside."
"Mmm..." Sayu nodded.
Just like that, the two went to the changing room to change back into their regular clothes.
And left the Akizuki Bathhouse.
