The protection that should be there had to be included.
The blessings that should be there could also be considered.
And so.
Madam Sawamura herself had no idea.
She had been sleeping poorly lately, with her eyelids twitching. Then, while passing by a shrine, she thought of Miss Yae Miko and prayed for a protective charm.
She had genuinely obtained the real thing.
How should I put it?
Given that trash fox's flighty personality,
there was no particular need for it... Her charms were truly only good for looking at and laughing over. They couldn't be taken seriously.
But Madam Sawamura's protective charm this time was terrifying.
Not only had Furina, the Hydro Archon, bestowed her blessing, but Raiden Makoto and Raiden Ei, the two Electro Archons, had blessed it as well.
Great Tree King had also bestowed her blessing.
The other Herrscher girls had even imbued the charm with a portion of their own power, just in case anything unexpected happened.
Admittedly,
those powers would only activate when she encountered genuine danger—especially when she was nearly dead and on the verge of not making it through.
But cause and effect were cause and effect.
Even if she died the very next moment,
they could still bring her back.
Rather,
if they saw that she would die the next moment,
the protective charm would activate.
That way, they could prevent a situation where Miss Tamamo no Mae had no chance to intervene.
It would also prevent the script from deviating too far.
So in reality!
When someone like Madam Sawamura, on a sudden whim, went to pray for a charm, they thought it was their own idea.
But in truth, it was the result of Little Griseo and the others guiding them.
And so!
Several days passed in the blink
