A truly intelligent person never trusts one side of the story; she only believes in what she has judged for herself.
Sangonomiya Kokomi is such a person.
When all the clues and evidence ca together, she naturally regarded Bai Luo as a "remarkable person."
And her attitude towards Bai Luo also gradually underwent a certain change.
For example, when encountering certain matters, she would actually want to ask for Bai Luo's opinion.
Although she might not necessarily listen, at least she trusted Bai Luo more than before.
For instance, right now, regarding the issue of spies infiltrating Watatsumi Island, she had actually taken the initiative to invite Bai Luo to discuss so matters.
"Lady Sangonomiya."
Bai Luo t her in Sangonomiya Shrine. At this mont, her condition was not very good. Although she had just replenished her energy, she was now extrely tired, supporting her forehead with her hand, as if she could fall asleep at any mont.
"I'm sorry, I was just lost in thought."
After realizing that Bai Luo had arrived, Sangonomiya Kokomi finally sat up straight, and the weariness on her face quickly faded in a very short ti.
After a long ti, she had long been accustod to how to always maintain that composure and confidence in front of others.
Even if she herself was already exhausted to the extre.
Just as Bai Luo had predicted, she had indeed been very willful and taken a day off. She had also gone to the sea to enjoy a mont of peace for the first ti in a long ti.
But when she returned to her identity as the Divine Priestess, all kinds of troubles ca rushing in again.
The people from Liyue needed to be appeased, the families of the fallen soldiers needed to be comforted, and the matter of the Shogunate spies needed to be worried about...
Originally, she had a super long standby ti, but she was tortured to the point of losing a large amount of energy in a single day.
Even the copy of "My Raiden Shogun Can't Be This Cute" in her hand was almost unable to replenish the energy she had lost.
"I wonder what Lady Sangonomiya needs my help with? If I can do it, I will definitely go through fire and water without hesitation."
Bai Luo did not reveal anything about Igor and the three hundred million Mora, as if he knew nothing about Mr. Li's report.
He was the sa as usual, with that gentle smile still on his lips, making people want to trust him at first sight.
"Actually, it's still related to the Shogunate spies."
Speaking of this matter, a grave expression appeared on Sangonomiya Kokomi's face.
Originally, she thought it was just a simple reconnaissance, but what happened on Yashiori Island was beyond her expectations.
She had a premonition that there must be a huge conspiracy behind this matter.
"If it's about catching spies, I can give it a try."
Bai Luo was very clear that the so-called spy was actually Scaramouche.
He had just co to confirm whether the [Mysterious Harbinger] in Bourou Village was him. After confirming, he basically wouldn't co again.
If he did co, he would definitely send soone to greet him first.
So this was a good job that was both leisurely and could boost his reputation. How could he possibly miss it?
Besides, the opportunity to wander around Watatsumi Island for a legitimate reason was not common.
Maybe he would even have a chance to visit Enkanomiya.
"Actually, the matter I need to entrust to you is far more important than the matter of the spies."
As Sangonomiya Kokomi spoke, she stood up and walked to the window, looking in the direction of Inazuma.
"Have you heard of Orobashi no Mikoto?"
"Of course. Isn't that the god of your Watatsumi Island?"
Orobashi no Mikoto, also known as the Great God of Watatsumi.
During the Archon War, he had another na—Orobashi.
He was a loser in the Archon War.
Having lost everything and fled to the Dark Sea, Orobashi saw the abandoned people who had nothing in Enkanomiya. So he decided to stay and beco their [Orobashi no Mikoto], their [Great God of Watatsumi].
It is said that the serpent god once broke off all the coral branches on his body to give the children huddled in the darkness light to illuminate their surroundings.
Another story says that he used the broken coral branches to build a ladder to the heavens, allowing his children to return to the surface and see the sunlight once again.
To this day, looking towards Sangonomiya Shrine from Watatsumi Island, the huge coral and shells look like a spiral staircase.
All the rumors confird one thing: the ancestors of the people of Watatsumi were the abandoned people saved by Orobashi from Enkanomiya.
Without this Great God of Watatsumi, the people of Watatsumi might still be struggling in Enkanomiya today.
"Orobashi no Mikoto's domain was originally separated from Narukami by the western border, and they coexisted peacefully. At that ti, war broke out, and he led his forces on an eastern expedition.
The war was fierce, and the people suffered greatly. The two sides fought fiercely on what is now Yashiori Island, and both sides suffered heavy casualties. The Shogun's beloved general, the tengu Sasayuri, also died in battle.
Orobashi no Mikoto finally fell to the Shogun's Musou no Hitotachi and died on Yashiori Island.
From then on, Sangonomiya sent envoys to surrender and recognized the Inazuma Shogunate as their suzerain."
The hand placed in front of her gradually clenched. Sangonomiya Kokomi slowly recounted the war of the past.
Even though they had once bowed their heads to the Inazuma Shogunate, in their hearts, the Great God of Watatsumi was always their true leader.
But they did not dare to continue to believe in him openly now. Even the Mouun Shrine was abandoned. They could only build the current Sangonomiya Shrine, at the place where the Great God of Watatsumi rose from Enkanomiya, as a morial to him.
"Lady Sangonomiya, although I have injured that Raiden Shogun, it does not an I can kill her. If you want to strike again, then I can only apologize."
Although he said he would go through fire and water, if Sangonomiya Kokomi asked him to go and kill the Raiden Shogun to avenge Orobashi, he would refuse without a second thought.
He was not stupid.
First of all, it was uncertain whether the Heaven-Shattering White Dragon Flash of his three professions could one-shot the Raiden Shogun. Even if it could, there would still be Yae Miko and the Raiden Shogun's puppet to deal with.
The Raiden Shogun's puppet knew about his quantum state and was one of the gods most likely to be able to kill him now.
He would not seek death.
"You've misunderstood, Mr. Himura. These are all things of the past. If not for the Vision Hunt Decree, our Watatsumi Island would not have ford a resistance. The matter I need you to handle is actually another one."
Although Sangonomiya Kokomi said it was to resist the Vision Hunt Decree, only Watatsumi Island, which had ford the resistance, knew the true purpose.
After all, as long as there was a righteous reason for a war, one could beco the side of justice.
But as long as he wasn't asked to go and kill the Raiden Shogun, other matters... were not impossible to help with.
When raising fish, one must also change the water appropriately. A clear fish tank allows for a better appreciation of the fish's posture.
"After the Great God of Watatsumi fell, his divine body is still on Yashiori Island. The fall of a god will naturally have a huge impact on the surroundings. So the Shogunate set up wards to suppress the Great God of Watatsumi's resentnt. But just before the day Bourou Village was invaded by spies, the wards used for suppression were destroyed by a group of unidentified people."
These two events happened too coincidentally. Sangonomiya Kokomi imdiately slled a conspiracy.
Because according to Gorou's investigation, the mysterious group that destroyed the wards was very likely to be from within the resistance.
And a group of soldiers within the resistance had coincidentally disappeared without a trace.
But neither she nor Gorou had ever given such an order.
In that case, everything was worth pondering.
