People are in Star Iron, and the game begins with the unsheathing of Heavenly Fire.

The people, who had been living in fear under the Eye Hunt and Isolation Edicts, gradually regained their vitality and began to strive for a better new life.

Just as the two stepped forward—

"Governor Ron? Isn't that Governor Ron?!"

Suddenly, a blonde girl named Naganohara Yomi-miya, dressed in a red kimono, spoke up and rushed over immediately, drawing the attention of the surrounding civilians.

Suddenly, the once peaceful street became bustling with activity as everyone rushed forward, eager to see Ron.

"Governor Ron, thank you so much! Thanks to you lifting the lockdown, we can now import goods from overseas again!"

"Since the Eye Hunting Order was abolished, I haven't been able to live without fear for a long time. Thank you so much, Your Excellency!"

"Lord Ron, these are some freshly baked cookies from our family. My mother asked me to come and thank you!"

"Me too! Me too, Your Excellency!"

"..."

As the various heated voices subsided, Ron calmly responded to each one, and had General Thunder, who was beside him, take away all the items as a maid.

In the end, the general looked at the eight bags of eggs, two pounds of cloth, and all sorts of snacks and handicrafts in his hands, his eyes blank and his face numb.

"What are they doing?"

"They're probably grateful that I lifted the Eye Hunting Order and the Isolation Order."

"gratitude?"

General Thunder looked puzzled, or rather, unable to accept it. "The Eye Hunting Edict and the Seclusion Edict were policies that benefited the country and its people, aimed at creating a nearly eternal land. Why should they be so grateful to you for lifting such good policies?"

"Who knows?"

Ron didn't answer.

Because facts speak louder than words, he doesn't need to explain everything; he just needs to let the other person figure it out for themselves, and that's enough.

"..."

General Thunder looked bewildered.

Although she is a doll and has no doubts about her underlying programming, some things force her to think differently and realize the multifaceted nature of reality.

What is considered correct may not be just the literal meaning of 'benefit'.

Because they had so much stuff to carry, Ron and General Raiden had to go back to the castle tower to put everything down before setting off again.

Just then, Ron noticed a tear in General Thunder's clothes, which appeared to have been ripped while he was moving things.

"Your clothes are torn, let me give you a new one."

Ron picked out a piece of cloth from the fabric he had just received, one that was a good size and could almost be worn as a kimono by General Raiden.

General Raiden hadn't expected the other party to be so thoughtful, and only belatedly realized that he had changed into the kimono the other party had given him...

"How is it? Is it good-looking?" General Thunder asked for no apparent reason.

"very nice."

Ron nodded. The sight of the other person in a kimono instinctively reminded him of Raiden Shin, who had asked him the same question back then, causing him to instinctively give the same answer.

"This……"

On the other side, upon hearing Ron's words, a strange blush inexplicably appeared on General Thunder's face.

Even she found it hard to handle the other person's overly direct words.

She felt her heart start racing, and a restless feeling arose within her that she couldn't easily calm down.

I have absolutely no idea why.

Just as General Thunder was wavering, Ron suddenly added:

"Yes, this dress is indeed quite nice."

"..." General Thunder.

My heart, which had been beating wildly, stopped instantly!

Chapter 136 The Oppression of a Lady! I Will Personally Organize Your Funeral!

They set off once again for the Kujo family's suburban estate.

This time, Ron chose a slightly secluded road, where he would hardly encounter any outsiders.

Throughout the journey, General Raiden wore a light purple kimono and gathered his long hair back.

Although her aura was becoming increasingly undeniable, it was still difficult to recognize her as the lightning goddess who once ruled over Inazuma.

"Why would the Kujo family want you to come over?" Raiden General asked, looking puzzled. "This goes against what they've always done, and it feels very strange."

"Who knows? Maybe the Kujo family has also colluded with the Jujishu."

Ron shook his head and spoke casually.

"Impossible!" General Raiden shook his head decisively. "The Kujo family has no reason to collude with the Fools. I already gave them the maximum power they could!"

General Raiden refused to believe that the Kujo family had betrayed him.

Ron remained silent, completely unconcerned about the Kujo family's motives or whether they had actually colluded with the Fatui.

After all, the only thing that can be confirmed is that the Kujo family does not have absolute loyalty to the Raiden General.

Even without colluding with the Fools, this will not change in the slightest.

soon.

Ron and General Raiden arrived in front of a huge manor house belonging to the Kujo family outside Inazuma.

This is the place where Kujo Takayuki sent the invitation to him to attend the banquet.

"Lord Ron, you've finally arrived."

Kujo Sara was waiting outside, and she immediately came to greet Ron when she saw him.

"Has the banquet already begun?"

"Lord Xiaoxing is already preparing and can begin at any time."

"it is good."

After a brief conversation with Kujo Sara, Ron led General Raiden into the Kujo family's banquet hall.

The moment he entered, an invisible pressure came from all directions. General Thunder could almost always feel the boiling killing intent hidden in the shadows.

Meanwhile, on the banquet platform, the old fox Kujo Takayuki, dressed in a formal suit, was smiling as he looked at Ron and General Raiden, who had just arrived, as if they were two prey already in a cage.

Beside Kujo Takayuki stood a tall figure.

She was a woman with blonde hair, wearing a half-mask that resembled a butterfly. Her gorgeous long dress hugged her voluptuous body, exuding an indescribable charm.

Anyone with even a basic understanding of the Fools would immediately recognize Kang Fang's identity—

The Eighth Executive Officer of the Fools, [Lady] Rosalyn.

The moment General Raiden saw the woman in front of her, she frowned. She hadn't expected that the Kujo family actually had a secret connection with the Fools.

As a puppet, the general can understand human emotions, but he cannot understand every complex emotion, let alone the human heart.

Therefore, she simply couldn't understand why she had given the Kujo family such enormous power, almost enough to control everything in Inazuma.

Yet the other party still cooperated with the Fools, an outsider organization, completely disregarding her authority.

If she were still Inazuma Raigami now, she would have immediately exiled the Kujo family and publicly executed the head of the Kujo family for such an extreme act of usurpation!

"Kujo Takayuki, how dare you collude with the Fools? Aren't you afraid of divine retribution?" In his anger, General Raiden couldn't help but speak out on the spot!

"God's wrath?" Kujo Takayuki sneered. He didn't recognize Raiden General's identity, so he spoke nonchalantly, "How could such a thing happen? Putting aside the fact that Raiden General is a reclusive person who only stays in the castle tower and never pays attention to other people, we only need to fool her a little to make her not doubt anything."

"Secondly, now that General Raiden is gone, how can Inazuma allow such an outsider to control everything? Therefore, our Kujo family must completely eliminate this dangerous individual and bring Inazuma back under our control! After all, the Kujo family has controlled Inazuma for generations, and we are the true controllers of Inazuma!"

"..."

The words of Kujo Takayuki caused the Thunder General's pupils to contract.

She never expected that the head of the Kujo family would say such a thing.

Deceiving superiors and concealing the truth... blinded by greed... no words can describe the wolfish ambition of the other party, let alone the rage of General Thunder at this moment!

"Damn it..." General Thunder clenched her fists. If she weren't almost powerless right now, she would have killed this despicable subordinate immediately!

"Isn't the banquet starting yet?"

In contrast, Ron was very calm, appearing as if he had come to enjoy the feast.

"Humph."

The woman let out a cold snort upon seeing this. She had been exuding a terrifying pressure on the Inazuma governor ever since, but he had completely ignored her, treating her as if she were invisible.

This cold and indifferent attitude was undoubtedly unacceptable to the lady; how could her pride as the dignified Executor of the Fools be so thwarted!

"Boom!"

An astonishingly cold aura suddenly filled the air.

The woman walked down the platform step by step, and with each step she took, the chill covered everything around her, engulfing and swallowing everything!

"The banquet will begin soon." The lady stared intently at Ron in the distance. "However, this banquet is held for only one purpose! It is a foundation-laying feast for your funeral, Your Excellency!"

"You will die here today, there is no other possibility!"

……

Meanwhile, on the outskirts of Inazuma Castle.

The rebel forces led by Kokoro Miyako and the army of the magistrate led by Ayato Kamisato have urgently joined forces and headed to the outskirts of Inazuma Castle.

"The Fools have actually attacked Archon Ron?"

Upon receiving the news, Coral Palace Heart Sea couldn't help but show surprise. "How could they act so quickly? It doesn't make sense! The defenses of the castle tower are very tight!"

“No, it’s not the castle tower.” Ayato Kamisato shook his head. “Ron accepted the Kujo family’s invitation and went to one of their estates outside Inatsuma Castle.”

"The manor outside Inazuma Castle? This is clearly a trap!" Goro exclaimed in surprise. "Why would that governor agree to something like this?"
