Ultimately, this Rainbow Dance was scheduled for an evening two days later.
The wives granted Jack mercy, allowing him two days of rest.
Of course, that was their excuse.
In reality, Inazuma needed to adjust its high-level leadership in preparation for the upcoming major changes.
Raiden Makoto and Saiguu were the former Raiden Shogun and former High Priestess. Matters such as whether they should hide their identities and information after their resurrection, and whether they needed to secretly regain power, all needed to be finalized.
Anyway, a certain High Priestess, who wished not to be named, was ready to quit.
Now that she had the identity of the Creator's wife, she lacked nothing materially (referring to mora and world coin) or spiritually (otherworldly entertainment products and Yae Publishing House).
Whoever wanted to be the High Priestess of Narukami Shrine, working non-stop for 500 years, could go ahead! She, Yae Miko, certainly didn't want to be it anymore!
Regarding this, the current Raiden Shogun of Inazuma commented thus:
"Did Yae Miko really say that? Good, it just so happens that Husband has been quite tired recently. I'll make him a fox fur scarf when I have time, so he can relax and rest while working."
—The above is a faithful report by our reporter, Lumine.
...
Linjian Cabin.
Jack strolled to this place.
He happened to see Lumine drawing and writing some interesting things.
He walked closer and then saw:
"Shocking! A certain man actually did such a thing to the sky late at night!"
"Sisters! I've discovered a secret! That man has a limit!"
"Still troubled by not finding your favorite products? Still hesitating because you're out of touch with modern products? Come consult Shopkeeper Lumine of the Everything Store! For details, please visit 'Lumine-chan Internet Cafe'!"
"Are you making a newspaper?"
Lumine looked up at Jack, scornfully saying, "Does that even need a question mark? Isn't it obvious?"
"What I mean is, who are you selling these newspapers to? There are only dozens of us in this family, and news can't even get out of the bedroom door. What do you need to announce?"
"Oh, you busy man, today you're on Keqing's bed, tomorrow on Ayaka's bed, and the day after tomorrow you might even run off to be Miss Nilou's dog! As an informant for Empress Keqing, it's absolutely necessary for us to monitor a certain person's every move and present it to the sisters who don't know the truth!"
"Since when did you become Keqing's informant? Could it be just your unilateral opinion? Did Keqing agree?"
"...Ahaha, the sky is so blue today."
Lumine whistled, but unfortunately, it didn't make a sound, only an odd hissing noise.
"Believe it or not, I'll make it rain right now."
"Hey! Is that how the Creator's authority is supposed to be used? Use it to benefit the people's lives, come on!"
"Entara's average happiness index is 100%, just so you know."
Jack bickered with Lumine for a while, then took a newspaper she had handwritten.
He had to admit.
This guy's learning ability was really strong; her drawings were truly good.
In fact, Lumine had only had those manga beginner books for a few days, and now she had already learned most of the paneling, coloring, and other content, comparable to a veteran artist of ten years.
"That'll be 100 world coin per sheet, please!"
"??" Jack looked at Lumine's outstretched palm in confusion.
Lumine's delicate nose wrinkled: "What! Do you think you don't have to pay just because you're my husband? Give me the money!"
"That's not what I meant."
Jack stroked Lumine's head, looking seriously into her eyes and saying, "If you're really in trouble, just tell me. There's no need to make things hard for yourself by doing these things. Here's 50,000 world coin, go spend it."
With that, Jack exchanged 50,000 paper bills from his infinite money bag and handed them to Lumine.
Lumine was so surprised her small mouth could fit… well, it was a bit of a stretch, but at least half of it could go in!
This household was not short on world coin now, so for the time being, Jack distributed money to everyone according to the principle of distribution on demand.
But everyone was surprisingly very frugal, and there was no extravagant waste.
Except for 1 person and Paimon.
"Good heavens! 500 newspapers? Husband, do you want me to draw until I die?!"
"Who asked you to draw 500 copies? This is for you! If you want to buy anything recently, just go buy it. Don't think I didn't notice you playing for sympathy."
Jack already knew what kind of person Lumine was.
Her appearing here to draw and being seen by Jack was a planned scheme, not a coincidence.
This wasn't the first or second time, otherwise the entertainment section of the general store wouldn't have progressed so quickly, as Jack wasn't very interested in content he had already experienced.
"Hehe, I just want to buy a PS5. I saw that the store has refreshed with this item, but the hateful guys actually sell the console and games separately, it's too much of a rip-off!"
"It hasn't been that long, and you've already upgraded from arcade games to PS5. This is the latest generation from before I transmigrated. Don't play too fast, or you'll run out of things to play."
The general store indeed had many good things.
But there was a limit to that.
Since the other party belonged to a Blue Star-related module, its technological development would not exceed Blue Star's before Jack's transmigration.
Naturally, fully immersive games (similar to Sword Art Online) that were still conceptualized in his previous life were also absent.
With Lumine's rapid iteration of games, in a few months, she would have played all the famous games on Earth and then fall into a gaming slump.
"We'll deal with that when the time comes. At worst… at worst, I'll just continue my journey in Teyvat and go find that… wait, who was I supposed to find?"
"Hint: A young man with golden hair like yours and a long braid."
"Oh, you mean that scumbag brother Aether who abandoned his sister and sided with evil forces, and spouts nonsense like a riddler?"
Lumine pouted, then hugged Jack's arm: "I have you now. All other men in the world can no longer catch my eye, let alone such a scumbag brother. Instead of looking for him, I'd rather go to Fontaine and meet new beautiful girls to play with."
"Well said, but you cannot go to Fontaine."
"Huh? Why?"
"Because if you or I go, their prophecy there will begin to activate, and irreversible things like the fall of a god might happen. Until I have the ability to solve it, you'd best not go."
Lumine frowned, "Tell me in detail."
Jack pointed to his mouth, implying: It's all in my mouth.
So Lumine stood on tiptoe, hugged him, and kissed him.
A few minutes later, the knowledge transfer was complete, Lumine suddenly understood, and her expression towards Jack was also very satisfied.
"The Hydro Archon actually separated her divinity and humanity, how interesting… And my husband is indeed the best. He won't play riddles with his cute wife. As long as I ask, he'll tell me, hehe~"
"If you know I'm the best, then just cause me less trouble normally."
Jack pinched Lumine's cheeks, kneading and rounding them like a bun.
Lumine wasn't annoyed, happily responding to him.
"Oh my, oh my, look what I've seen. Flirting in broad daylight. Could it be that someone can't wait until tomorrow and is going to act like a beast now?"
The person who arrived was Yae Miko.
She came before Jack and the others with messy hair accessories.
Just as everyone else was wondering why the usually elegant and calm Yae Miko was so disheveled, Yae Miko saw the newspaper in Jack's hand.
Then she also saw the content of the so-called "Our reporter, Lumine, faithfully reports."
On it were her words about stepping down as High Priestess, which she had said jokingly once, and some inexplicable words Ei had said while pulling out her fox fur.
She looked at Lumine, and Lumine looked at her.
For a moment, the atmosphere was quite subtle.
So that's how Ei knew I was going to step down! It was you, you scumbag, who leaked the secret!!
Yae Miko looked furiously at Lumine, who was crouching and preparing to escape. Her exclusive weapon, Kagura's Verity, instantly appeared in her hand.
"Thunderclap Wabi-Sabi!"
