Genshin Impact: I, the Winter Prince, reign supreme.

I've never heard of my master knowing the other party.

Su Yu remained silent.

I met Yae no Miko in the game, how can I explain that to you?

At the highest point of Mount Kagemura, there is a shrine, which is Narukami Taisha.

If you were to ask which place in Inazuma is the most bustling, it would undoubtedly be this place, where countless people come every day to offer incense and pray for blessings.

The young shrine maiden, Nana Kano, stepped forward and respectfully said, "Your Highness, please draw a fortune slip."

Su Yu was not surprised at all to be recognized. He was now a celebrity in Inazuma, and his portrait was circulated everywhere.

The divination slips are categorized into several types of results, such as extremely unlucky and extremely lucky.

Su Yu shook the divination stick container, and a stick fell out. Upon closer inspection, he found that there were no words written on it; it was a blank stick.

Kano Nana was taken aback: "The blank slip needs to be interpreted by the chief priest himself."

Where is your Palace Attendant?

"Under the sacred cherry tree."

So, Su Yu led the Hidden Mirror Lady to the Divine Cherry Tree.

A tea table was set up under the cherry tree, complete with tea leaves, a stove, and cups.

Yae no Miko, beaming, smiled and said, "Prince Shifu, since you've come for the Heart of God, you are qualified to meet me. Inazuma's Heart of God has always been kept in her possession."

Su Yu smiled.

If he hadn't known the plot beforehand, he would have really been tricked by that scumbag.

Inazuma's Divine Heart has always been in your hands, Yae no Miko.

Su Yu didn't confront her directly, but wanted to see what tricks she was up to.

"Miss Shenzi, has the general given me permission to see Lei Yingdian?"

"The reasons you gave were really hard for her to accept. She ignored you for three days, so she should have calmed down by now. Since the general is too embarrassed to speak up, let me make the decision. Besides, if you really want to go to the Pure Land of One Heart, who can stop you?"

As expected of the Eightfold Divine Child, he is smooth in his dealings with people, and his emotional intelligence completely surpasses that of the Thunder General.

But Su Yu knew perfectly well that one of them was playing the bad cop and the other the good cop.

"That's not necessarily true. If it were the high priestess of Narukami Shrine who dissuaded me, I might really give up the idea of ​​going to Isshin no Sokyo."

Yae no Miko was slightly taken aback, then smiled faintly.

"Your Highness is too kind. I don't have that kind of influence. I would like to ask Your Highness a question: Was the meeting with Ying Your Highness's idea, or was it authorized by Empress Zhidong?"

As they spoke, Yae no Miko personally poured tea for Su Yu.

Su Yu took the teacup: "What's the difference?"

"If it was Empress Winter's doing, and the prince was just carrying out a task assigned by his superiors, based on my understanding of Shadow, she might not listen to you. Empress Winter and Thunder really had a falling out before. By the way, Thunder really is..."

"She is Shadow's older sister."

"Oh my, the prince really knows everything about our Inazuma." Yae no Miko said it casually, but she was actually very shocked. Inazuma's twin demon sisters were a secret known only to the Seven Gods.

The fact that Empress Zhidong would confide such a secret to Su Yu demonstrates the extent of her trust in him.

This Prince Zhidong is probably more complex than he appears on the surface.

Su Yu smiled noncommittally: "Thank you for the reminder, Divine Child."

Su Yu's current strength is comparable to that of the Seven Gods, and he can directly address the Eighth Divine Son by his name.

"Your Highness is too kind. Helping you is also helping myself. Ying can be quite stubborn at times. If she listened to what you and the General said, I believe she would be moved. She has isolated herself for too long. Perhaps Your Highness can help her out of her predicament."

Su Yu didn't respond, but simply sipped her tea quietly.

He wasn't going to reason with Lei Yingdian...

"Your Highness, do you need me to interpret the blank fortune stick you just drew? Although you don't seem to believe in such divination."

Su Yu naturally did not believe in the divination at Narukami Shrine, especially the divination concerning fate.

Destiny is in your own hands.

"There's no need for that 'sincerity brings results' nonsense. Miss Divine Child, please interpret the divination slip directly."

Yae no Miko took the blank slip of paper, looked at it seriously for a while, and mysteriously uttered two words: "Great Calamity".

Su Yu thought she would say things like "good fortune" to please him, but "major disaster" was too much.

"A major disaster?"

Yae no Miko sneered: "The prince is currently enjoying a string of romantic encounters, surrounded by stunning beauties. He should be careful to prevent his harem from falling into chaos."

It seems you were talking about personal feelings, then it's alright.

With so many fish in the pond, a fire was only a matter of time.

Su Yu was also helpless about this. His Highness the Prince's aura was too dazzling, and he always attracted the attention of girls wherever he went.

When it comes to awkward topics, the smart thing to do is to change the subject.

"Miss Shenzi's tea is excellent. Even as Prince Zhidong, I rarely get to drink such fine tea."

That's just a polite remark.

When someone invites you for tea, you should always respond to the host.

"Your Highness, you said last time that our tea from the winter solstice is the best-tasting—"

The lady with the mirror standing behind him spoke very frankly.

"I'm sorry, Your Highness, I misspoke."

The lady with the mirror realized her mistake and immediately bowed to admit it.

Su Yu also clearly saw why he lost his composure.

Yae no Miko's lavish hospitality aroused the jealousy of her maids.

"Ahem...Really? I forgot to say that."

Yae no Miko chuckled, “Your maid is quite proud. I never interpret fortunes for free, so Your Highness, please do me a favor. I have prepared some snacks here. Your Highness has probably already guessed that this is a gift from my best friend, who hopes that Your Highness can deliver it to Kage on my behalf. They are all her favorite flavors.”

As he spoke, Yae no Miko's expression turned resentful.

"Oh, my dear sister, she's so heartless. For so many years, she hasn't even allowed me to step into the Pure Land of One Heart, but I can't just abandon her."

Yae no Miko led Su Yu to a room.

As Su Yu opened the door, her eyes twitched as she looked at the room filled with all sorts of snacks and treats.

You call this a little snack?

It would take a whole truckload to haul all of this away.

Fortunately, the system had previously rewarded me with a spatial ring, the internal space of which was even more spacious than the Dust Song Pot.

With a casual wave of his hand, Su Yu instantly stored a room full of snacks into his spatial ring.

The group of priestesses stared wide-eyed, their understanding of Su Yu's miraculous abilities completely shattered.

"The spatial ring of the Winter Kingdom is a perfect combination of technology and elemental power. It is said to be the result of the prince's research."

Yae no Miko looked at Su Yu with admiration, but also with increased vigilance.

The birth of a genius like Su Yu in the Kingdom of Winter is like adding wings to a tiger.

The little witches were extremely surprised.

Such a magical thing was invented by this Prince Zhidong, who was so young, handsome, and talented that he made their hearts flutter.

"Since Miss Shenzi invited me for tea, I should reciprocate. Here is another spatial ring; would you like it?"

The spatial rings of winter have always been non-saleable items, extremely rare on the black market, and each one is priceless.

Yae no Miko's eyes lit up, but she calmly asked, "A spatial ring is enough to buy Narukami Taisha. I can't accept a reward without merit. What does the prince want me to do?"

The Eightfold Divine Child did not believe that a cup of tea could be exchanged for a spatial ring. She was certain that Su Yu had ulterior motives, and she had to find out the truth.

Chapter 9 The True Meaning of Lightning

Of course, it's not free.

Su Yu put forward conditions.

"The light novel by Yaedo, 'The Tortured Love Between Prince Shifu and the Little Shrine Maiden of Narukami,' has been removed from shelves."

Yae no Miko laughed and said, "The prince is worried about his reputation, isn't he? Then I'll have them withdraw it now."

She's the editor-in-chief of Yaedo; she can issue an order at will.

"Even if this affects my reputation and public image, it will be very limited. But it's your little shrine maidens who are not married yet. This light novel could easily be spread as negative news, affecting their entire lives."

The young witches present thought about it carefully and realized that it was indeed true.

Although they don't mind having some scandalous affairs with the prince, it will ultimately affect their reputation, their ability to find a boyfriend in the future, their ability to start a family, and the harmony between them and their spouses.

Thinking this way, her admiration for Su Yu deepened even further.

Or rather, they were clearly captivated by Su Yu's personal charm.

Understanding and consideration from superiors can always easily win people's hearts.

"What the prince says is quite right." Yae no Miko agreed with Su Yu's opinion. "Then... are there any other requests?"

"If possible, I hope to come to Narukami Shrine more often for tea. After all, not everyone can enjoy the privilege of having tea personally brewed by the High Priestess."

Su Yu's words were somewhat ambiguous. Yae no Shinji thought Su Yu was teasing him again, but then he saw Su Yu get up, take the Hidden Mirror Lady, and turn to leave.

On the coffee table, there was a spatial ring.

"Lord Palace Attendant, Prince Zhidong is so kind to you. He gave you such a precious gift so readily."

"But then again, what is he after? The effort and the reward are completely disproportionate."

"You're overthinking it. Perhaps Prince Zhidong is simply a generous and magnanimous person."

Yae no Miko crossed her arms and said with a coquettish smile, "He called this a buyout. He bought out the privilege of me personally brewing tea for him. In other words, from now on, I can only brew tea for Prince Shifu. He's really greedy."
