Chapter 30 - Chapter 30: Whispers of the Wind

In Inazuma, the Vision Hunt Decree is the embodiment of Raiden Shogun's will to pursue eternity.

And Kujou Sara is the main force in executing the Vision Hunt Decree.

In fact, she thinks there is nothing wrong with General Raiden's behavior of confiscating the Vision.

If a loyal person like her gets the Vision, it would be a good thing.

But if someone with bad intentions gets the power of the Vision, the foundation of Inazuma will be shaken.

Based on this point of view, the Vision Hunt Decree is necessary.

However, this does not mean that she will implement the law by any means.

Just like this time with Arataki Itto.

Unless the other party resists stubbornly, otherwise, she will show the greatest patience and sincerity, and try to make the other party understand the general's long-term layout through persuasion.

Unfortunately, those who truly fear the power of the shogunate will present the Vision with both hands before she takes the initiative to approach them.

As for those stubborn people, even if she goes to persuade them personally, there will generally be no good results.

The will of the gods is far-reaching, and mortals cannot easily understand it. It is inevitable that they will hate it and even unite to resist the law enforcers.

When faced with such a situation where she has to take action, Kujou Sara can only face the enemy with a trace of helplessness and a sigh.

She will feel guilty for her actions that hurt civilians, but she will not question the will of the general.

As long as it is the order of the general, everything is correct!

But she, who is used to confiscating the Vision, encountered a rebel for the first time.

The rebels here do not refer to the civilians who refuse to hand over the Vision.

But the pioneers who really dare to stand up and question the Vision Hunt Decree.

In order to convey his will to the Shogun, the other party even bets his life in exchange for a glimmer of hope.

"I already know."

It has been a long time since the duel in front of the throne happened.

So this matter has long been spread throughout the streets and alleys of Inazuma Castle.

She couldn't have not known.

"So what are you going to do? Accept it?"

"Of course I have to accept it."

It doesn't matter whether she agrees to the duel in front of the throne or not. The most important thing is the will of the Shogun.

If the Shogun agrees to the duel, then she has no reason to refuse. She has seen the boy who issued the duel before the throne to her.

The shy boy has been surrounded by people in Hanamizaka. Is it based on pity? Or respect? In short, the merchants in Hanamizaka are even willing to waive all fees for him and let him eat to his heart's content in Hanamizaka tonight.

But the boy still stubbornly put the corresponding Mora under the bottom of the bowl.

It's useless for a dying person to leave this thing. It's better to leave it to those who need help.

"Look forward to your performance tomorrow."

"..." After watching Bai Luo leave, Kujou Sara showed a thoughtful look.

The actions of the Fatui are really unpredictable. Never mind. As long as he doesn't cause trouble during his stay in Inazuma, she should follow the orders of the master of the clan and try not to cause trouble to him. ...

"My lord, the boy has been touring Hanamizaka and has no other suspicious behavior."

"Well, continue to monitor him until he officially starts the duel in front of the throne."

"Yes!"

The subordinates of the Fatui left, and Bai Luo also walked to the window. The founder of Inazuma Castle had a good vision.

The location of the castle tower and the Tenryou Commission was very particular. Not to mention the castle tower. The location of the Tenryou Commission can also perfectly overlook the entire Inazuma Castle.

Unlike the Ritou islands, even though this city was also affected by the Vision Hunt Decree, it did not have much bleakness. The bustling town streets and the busy Hanamizaka.

As long as you have good eyesight, you can see every corner of Inazuma Castle here. The layers of night sakura blossoms and blue tiles cannot cover up the hustle and bustle of people.

But none of these are what Bai Luo cares about.

What he cares about most is the opportunity that can activate his Battousai profession from the boy.

His crappy system does not give any hints except for putting a bright target on the other party's head.

Should he kill him? Or should he save him in the duel before the emperor the next day?

Bai Luo does not know, and he does not dare to act rashly.

After initiating the duel before the throne, he has been monitored by the people of the shogunate.

If Bai Luo asks the Fatui to do something, he will definitely not be able to hide it from these people.

It will be very troublesome to explain it at that time.

It seems that he can only wait quietly for the duel before the throne to begin.

But before that...some preparations need to be made.

...

Travelers always have to have some skills when they are traveling.

Whether it is an impressive swordsmanship or an eloquent speech.

Kaedehara Kazuha has an ability that no one else has - listening to the wind and watching the clouds.

For him, nature is never silent, it has been telling his feelings in a unique language.

The sound of the wind suddenly stopped, everything was silent, that was the calm before the sky shed tears.

The spring suddenly jumped up, which was a sign of the earth's anger.

The dark clouds suddenly pressed down, which was a warning of a storm.

It was the rainy season, and the mountain road became a little muddy.

Kaedehara Kazuha searched for a long time before finding a place to stay under a cliff.

Shaking off the fallen leaves on the hat and brushing off the dust on the ground, he sat on the ground and took out the rice balls he brought from the package he carried with him.

After the rice balls were cold, the taste was a little unsatisfactory.

But he didn't dislike it because it could fill his stomach.

Looking at the gloomy sky, Kaedehara Kazuha thought of his friend again.

The two of them were originally a chance encounter, but they could appreciate each other, which shows that they have a deep fate.

Although they are temporarily separated due to some trivial matters, we may meet again unexpectedly.

Speaking of which, if he was by his side at this moment, he would definitely stop his behavior.

Cold rice balls are not good for the body.

"Hahahahahaha! Of course! This lord's Vision! You must bring it back in person!"

Before he had eaten the rice ball in his mouth, he heard a slightly noisy laugh in the wind.

He didn't speak, but squeezed his body under the cliff again.

In this desolate mountain, no matter what kind of person you meet, you must be careful and subtle.

Before, because he gave some fruits to a passing woodcutter, the other party discovered his Vision, and finally was chased by the shogunate soldiers for a long time before he successfully escaped.

The most important thing is... sometimes it's not certain whether the person you meet is a human or not.

But the other party's next words made him stunned.

"Boss, have you heard? Someone challenged that Tengu General to a duel in front of the throne."

"Huh? Someone actually... ahem, of course I heard about it! But he actually dared to challenge that Tengu girl, I have to say he is very brave. If he can come out alive, try to invite him to join our Arataki gang."

The cold rice ball rolled down the cliff, and Kazuha's hand that was holding the sword began to tremble.

It was him! Even though these people who claimed to be from the Arataki gang did not mention the surname of the person who initiated the duel in front of the emperor, he could be sure that it was definitely his friend.

He did not forget what his friend asked him when they parted.

"If one day, the land of Inazuma is eroded by disasters and the people are no longer watched by the gods, what would you choose to do?"

His answer was simple. "I would choose to live in anonymity." It was this question and answer that became the opportunity for the two to part temporarily.

The friend told him that he was going to do something big. Something big enough to make the whole Inazuma sensational.

Now it seems... he actually chose to face that Musou no Hitotachi sword!

A gust of wind blew by, and there was no trace of the maple leaves under the mountain wall. Only some rice balls and the joyful cheers of someone who picked up the rice balls in the wind remained.
