"Is Kamisato Ayato really that capable? Without spending a single soldier, he settled the marriage alliance between the two Commissions and even made Kujou Kamaji and Hiiragi Chisato each owe him a huge favor."
Kujou Kamaji and Hiiragi Chisato's wedding had actually been orchestrated by the head of a family called the Matsuura Family within the Kanjou Commission. Their goal was simple: like the Takatsukasa Family of the Tenryou Commission before them, they wanted to rise to power.

Even if she retained her position as head of the Kanjou Commission, she could only rely on subordinate families to control it. If things continued like this, it went without saying who the Kanjou Commission would ultimately obey.
The only reason no one dared act recklessly was because the Raiden Shogun appointed the supreme heads of the Three Commissions. No matter what ambitions others harbored, they did not dare defy the Shogun. In an ordinary world, someone in Hiiragi Chisato's position might one day end up "drowning herself" under suspicious circumstances.

When Kamisato Ayato and Kamisato Ayaka had been very young, their parents had passed away. Some of the other families in the Yashiro Commission had
