Raiden Makoto filled with fear and confusion, but under Kaguya's intimidating Inazuma- style threat, she could only obediently tell the story.

This is Kaguya's consciousness space. With the spiritual level of the Anqi Faction, the flow of time here can easily be a hundred or a thousand times faster than in the real world. Therefore, Raiden Makoto has plenty of time to tell his story, and Kaguya can listen attentively and patiently.

And so, Kaguya heard the story of the twin Demon God' arduous journey to establish their kingdom and ascend to the position of Seven Archons. Then, the demonic calamity of Kandria took the life of the elder Demon God, leaving only a wisp of her remnant spirit residing in a sword, usually asleep but occasionally awake, helplessly watching her younger sister become withdrawn.

"I see, I see. So the reason she did this to Inazuma is because you're gone?"

"Uh... I... she actually... well, that's true to a large extent."

Raiden Makoto lowered his head in shame, unable to wash anything for his sister.

Although the past experiences were indeed very painful, no amount of reasons can cover up the disqualification and sins of the younger sister, Inazuma, who has become like this.

Kaguya was long past her irritable, rage-filled phase; now she felt nothing for Raiden Ei, only wanting to solve the problem. So, she nonchalantly hugged her popcorn, munching on it as she said:

"Then this time you saw me point out Inazuma's problem, and you also saw that Yae Miko was dissatisfied with Raiden Ei because of me. You want to help Inazuma, and you also want to mend the relationship between Yae Miko and Raiden Ei, so you decide to give up everything to save my life?"

"Hmm. Kage is too stubborn. Until she can understand the will I hold in my Dream of the Sword, I have no ability to communicate with her even if I appear. Rather than waiting indefinitely like this, I think you are the real hope to save Inazuma, so I want to save you."

"Hmm, I completely understand now. Sigh, it must have been tough for you. Your little sister has become so withdrawn, and your country has been ruined. Well then, I have an idea. How about we make a deal?"

Kaguya rubbed her hands together, having come up with a new strategy to win over Inazuma.

Raiden Makoto shrank back.

"Please... please don't hurt Inazuma or Kage. I beg you, I'll do anything as long as you don't harm my country and my sister."

"Hmph, don't worry, I'm a very reasonable person. I won't hurt anyone for no reason. Come on, let me explain in detail, we'll do it this way and that..."

Kaguya and the little beauty put their arms around each other's shoulders and began to explain their thoughts in detail.

After a while, Raiden Makoto widened his eyes adorably.

"Huh? Ah? This... this..."

"Just tell me if you agree or not."

"Yes, I'll do it. I'll agree to anything."

Raiden Makoto looked at the giant golden sword behind Kaguya that pierced the heavens and earth, and at the bright and flawless smile on Kaguya's face, and could only cower and nod with tears in his eyes.

Then, Kaguya pulled the beautiful girl into her arms, and with a wicked grin, lifted her delicate, white chin, saying:

"Don't be afraid, sweetie. As long as you listen to me, I won't treat you badly, hehehe~~"

"Yes..."

Raiden Makoto, like a young bride who had been forcibly taken away, lowered her head in humiliation and helplessness.

Outside, Tenshukaku.

Yae Miko tried her best to cast various healing spells, initially only managing to keep Kaguya's life hanging by a thread, but later, she discovered that Kaguya's life force had unknowingly stabilized.

This has nothing to do with magic.

Yae Miko was well aware of the effect of her spells. The simple loss of life force was like aging, a natural law of life, and the effect of spells was negligible.

"So it's real power? But how could that be? Could it be... impossible?"

Yae Miko sensed the increasingly similar aura to Raiden Makoto emanating from Kaguya's body, various speculations flashed through her mind, her eyes flickering with doubt and uncertainty.

Raiden Ei rushed in at that moment.

"Yae Miko, how is she?"

"How are you handling the Inazuma national affairs?"

"... I have ordered the Otsume clan to temporarily detain the Tenryou Commission and the Kanjou Commission. Of the Three Commissions, only the Shaman Yashiro Commission, who is not involved in military or political affairs, is somewhat trustworthy. I have ordered the Kamisato Clan to suspend the recent festivals and rituals, and temporarily Tenryou Commission to thoroughly investigate the matter..."

"Are you stupid or blind? Didn't you see the last document Kaguya wrote? The first thing to do now is to open the country's borders and quickly purchase food from Liyue and Mondstadt. We need to make sure the people of Inazuma are well-fed so that everyone will have the strength to do what needs to be done later!"

"Oh, right, right, I'll do it right away!"

Raiden Ei, unable to refute the angry resentment of his family, hurriedly ran out to unveil the thunderous curtain and issue orders.

There was no other way; Kaguya had already written the situation very clearly. And the stammering and despair of the Tenryou Commission and the Kanjou Commission Magistrate during the Raiden Ei's adaptation, coupled with some observations during their journey to the Rishou Island, completely proved what Kaguya had written.

Raiden Ei dared not show any temper at this moment, only wanting to save the country as soon as possible and save more lives of his people.
