"Yes... and, Lady Xinhai... she never had any intention of rebelling, but was forced by the situation. Can she be brave enough..."
Kaguya patted Goro's shoulder as he knelt in front of him and said gently:
"I know what I'm doing."
"Yes! Thank you, Master Imperial Master!"
All of a sudden, Goro felt more confident and had a better impression and was more obedient to Kaguya.
By now, Coral Palace Xinhai would definitely be taken away by the shogunate. She herself had already seen this clearly, and the people around her had also more or less noticed it.
Goro knew the deeds of this national teacher and admired his heroic spirit of facing the gods for the sake of the country. Therefore, he believed what Kaguya said and believed that she would treat Coral Palace Xinhai well.
After expressing his gratitude once again, Wu Lang retreated respectfully.
Kaguya then fell to the side, and Kamisato Ayaka gave him support skillfully.
"Ugh……"
At this point, everything on Kaigi Island has basically come to an end.
"Really, the World Tree's response is faster and more powerful than we thought. It seems that we can be more optimistic about this matter."
[Yeah. But I just thought of the matter of the Grass God.]
'Oh? What? You know I don't know anything about this, what's wrong with the grass god?'
[The Grass God is the protector and spokesperson of the World Tree, and is even regarded as the incarnation of the World Tree. Do you think that our affairs and the sanctification of the earth can be hidden from her? I think that the Grass God may have been our ally for a long time.]
Raiden realized this belatedly.
In fact, it's not her fault. The main part of her was "resurrected" through the grace of the World Tree, and her residual memory was supplemented into an independent consciousness. The impact of this in itself was too great.
Then, when Huiye was working outside, she was resting inside. She felt so comfortable that she stopped thinking about it. As a result, she suddenly realized this problem now.
Kaguya didn't comment. Others might not know whether the Grass God was an ally, but how could she not know?
Then I heard Lei Dianzhen said worriedly:
[Oh no, I heard that Yingdu went straight to my door last time. I wonder if Grass God and Master World Tree will be unhappy? ]
'I think it's appropriate to hit him. It just proves that Inazuma is not secretly colluding with Sumi, and it can hide the truth from the public. I don't know whether Kusagami minds or not, but I don't think a being like the World Tree would care about such trivial matters.'
[Having said that...after I go back, I will still have a small meeting with the three of them to discuss this in detail.]
Raiden sighed and had to give up the mess for the time being and cheer up to write a poem for Inazuma's future.
Chapter 96 It’s great to have a successor
At the same time, the wind started to blow.
The charming and beautiful goddess of wind is listening to the singing of an idol priest.
"Tick, tick~~"
The song is over.
The singing voice is very sweet, and the girl's innocent smile and dancing are also very cute.
"Clap clap clap!"
So Wendy floated down from the tree, came to Barbara, and applauded:
"It sounds nice and makes me happy. This is what they call pop music, right?"
"Thank you for the award, Mr. Musician. I hope you don't mind."
Barbara couldn't hide her joy at being praised by the god she believed in, but at the same time she blushed with shyness.
Wendy naturally likes believers who worship her wholeheartedly and can't help but come to her and sing for her.
With a wave of the hand, the wind brought tables, chairs and snacks.
……
At the same time, Diluk, who happened to have some time to enjoy afternoon tea, fell silent as he looked at the empty balcony and the IOU signed by "Musician" posted on the door.
"I'd better suggest to Qin that we use the funds dedicated to the God of Wind more flexibly in the future."
Of course he wasn't angry.
Our gods are still kind and reliable, but they have left the world and have been asleep for a long time, so it is normal that they have no worldly possessions. Besides, they even left an IOU. Have you ever heard of a god who takes things from his believers and writes an IOU?
Diluk never imagined it anyway.
He just felt that it was the people of Mond who were wrong to make Lord Wind God embarrassed time and time again.
……
Wendy smiled and poured tea for the flattered Barbara, saying:
"I know you've always wanted to see me, but you wouldn't bother me casually. I don't mind, but you're definitely not here just to sing for me, right?"
"Mr. Musician, you have a keen eye. Actually, the Knights are planning to hold the Wind God Festival soon, so Barbara wanted to ask Mr. Musician if you are interested in... participating?"
Barbara looked at Wendy with admiration and trepidation.
Wendy blinked, drank her tea, and said:
"Isn't there a badminton festival? I remember it's still a while away."
"Badminton Festival is Badminton Festival, it's different. This Wind God Festival is to celebrate the awakening of the Wind God, to thank the Wind God for saving Mondstadt again, and to cheer up everyone who has been hurt by monsters. If we can see the musician at the Wind God Festival, I think everyone will quickly forget the unpleasantness and be full of courage again."
Wendy pushed the snack toward Barbara as she gradually understood.
Yes, although Tevarin destroyed most of the monsters in time, the wave of crazy monsters at that time still brought a great impact to Mondstadt as a whole, and the remaining monsters have not been dealt with yet. Overall, this was a big blow to Mondstadt, which had been peaceful for a long time and had its main force on the expedition.
And in this world, nothing can be more inspiring than the appearance of God.
The Knights of Favonius chose to hold the Wind God Festival at this time to boost morale internally and shock externally - just to remind everyone, our god has awakened and is very active. So don't think that we are easy to bully just because we are in trouble now, and show me some respect for Mondstadt. That's probably what it means.
"It's a good time."
Wendy nodded appreciatively.
Then she spread her hands and said helplessly:
"You can organize the celebration as you wish. As for whether the God of Wind will be there or not, I can't say for sure. We'll talk about it when the time comes."
"Yes. Captain Qin also said that you must have a lot of important things to do when traveling between Liyue and Sumi, so I am just reporting to you."
"Hey, you're still calling me Captain Qin? Shouldn't you call me Sister?"
"Ba... the musician knows about this?"
Barbara lowered her head shyly.
After the rescue battle of Benlang Territory, the relationship between the two sisters was largely improved.
But after their parents separated, the two sisters were separated for many years and had completely different growth and upbringing experiences. After the relationship cooled down, they became closer, but still could not completely get rid of the awkwardness.
"Girl, do you like Qin?"
"Of course! She is one of the strongest swordsmen in Mondstadt, an excellent knight who has been awarded the title of Dandelion Knight at a young age, and an acting leader that everyone trusts! She is my proudest sister!"
"Well, that's a good thing to say. So why not tell her in person?"
"No, no! In person, in person... I can't say it."
Barbara pointed at her finger and blushed.
Wendy grinned, smiling wickedly, holding a wisp of green wind in her hand.
"It's okay. I've recorded it all and will play it to Qin's ears right away."
"Master Barbatos, please don't!"
Barbara became anxious at the time and subconsciously reached out to touch the wind.
But Wendy raised her hand.
Barbara bumped into Wendy.
Then Barbara froze, and Wendy grabbed her and hugged her slender, soft waist.
"Why don't you rob?"
"I'm sorry, Barbara... Barbara is disrespectful to the God of Wind..."
"No, Barbara is soft and fragrant, I like it very much."
"Woo!"
Barbara covered her face with her hands, her face turned red all the way to her earlobes, and steam was coming out of her head.
Then Wendy squeezed her hands, and the breeze disappeared.
"I'm just kidding. You should say this to her in person. It would be a little boring if I tell her to say it."
"Lord Fengshen, please stop teasing me..."
"Barbara, there are countless cases of separation of family members in the world. It is very rare for sisters like you to still care about and cherish each other after being separated for many years. Promise me that you will cherish this family relationship as if it were a treasure given to you by God, okay?"
"Yes, Lord Fengshen!"
Wendy hugged the little pastor like a gangster.
But Barbara knew that the God of Wind was just caring for her and comforting her in this way.
Looking at the gentle and doting blue eyes of the Wind God, Barbara seemed to think of her mother in her childhood. This made her heart warm, and she unconsciously snuggled into Wendy's arms.
Wendy stroked Barbara's hair and said:
"Then as the God of Wind, I will now issue an order."
"Yes! Please tell me, Master Barbatos, Barbara will do her best to complete the prophecy!"
"That's not necessary. I can't bear to see my beloved little pastor die."
"My favorite...Ah! Barbara can't do that. Barbara doesn't have that qualification!"
How could the most devoted man treat her in such a way?
Barbara covered her face with her hands again, and this time not only her face but her whole body was almost red.
Wendy leaned over to Barbara's trembling earlobe and said:
"Listen, bring your pajamas tonight. My order to you is that you must spend the next three days with Qin and sleep in the same bed."
“Is it…?!”
Next, all you have to do is quietly appreciate Barbara's adorable reactions of panic, flattery, and confusion.
After a while, Barbara, still in a daze, took mechanical steps and walked towards Mondstadt step by step.
Wendy sent a gust of wind at any time and walked Barbara back to make sure she didn't fall into the lake in a daze.
"呷~~"
She took a sip of tea and looked across. A bard was already sitting there.
"Any wine?"
"There's only tea. It's up to you to drink it or not."
"Huh? But when I was singing, you suddenly called me over because you had something urgent to do. Normally, shouldn't I be ready... ready..."
Under the indifferent gaze of the younger generation, Wendy touched his nose and had to take a new cup to pour himself some tea. He asked:
"So what's going on?"
"First, take a look at what happened on Inazuma Umijima Island in the past two days."
Wendy reminded.
Wendy was stunned for a moment, then turned to look in the direction of Inazuma. After a moment, he frowned deeply.
"Praying to the World Tree to turn it into a holy land, and it worked? What do you mean?"
"Between the time when the Inazuma people performed the ceremony and the time when the sacred land was transformed, the grass god disappeared from the real world."
Wendy added another piece of information.
Wendy hissed, pondered, and thought for a moment before suddenly realizing:
"So what you mean is that the Grass God is proving to us that she has indeed mastered the power of the World Tree?"
