Yes, Lady Funina!

After all, everyone in the General's Mansion knew that this man was capable of withstanding General Lei Dian's [Wu Xiang's] slash. On that day, everyone present witnessed him being pulled into the Pure Land of One Heart by the General, and then walking out unharmed.

Although neither Richard nor the shogun discussed what happened in Isshin Jodo, the onlookers and the shogunate soldiers responsible for maintaining order all had their own guesses.

First of all, one thing is certain: the general did not lose.

This is the most crucial and important point, and it must be emphasized.

After all, if word got out, it wouldn't be right to say that their own god couldn't defeat an ordinary civil servant from Fontainebleau, would it?

What would happen then? If one of Fontaine's special envoys is this powerful, what would happen if the Water God himself came? Wouldn't it truly become a case of 'one day of cannon fire at the country's gates, three days of occupation of the general's mansion'?

On the morning of the first day, the evil god from Fontaine landed on the outlying island.

On the afternoon of the first day, the unspeakable cannibalistic evil god advanced towards Narukami Island.

The next morning, the despicable and shameless usurper god entered Narukami Island.

The following afternoon, Funina de Fontaine occupied Konta Village.

On the morning of the third day, the water goddess Funina was approaching Inazuma Castle.

On the afternoon of the third day, His Majesty the Supreme Water God arrived at his loyal general's residence.

What Napoleon?

Secondly, Yae no Kami of Narukami Shrine also disappeared midway through the battle, and then reappeared with Richard and the Shogun, seemingly joining the fight. Therefore, it can be concluded that even if Richard wins, it is because he outnumbers the enemy, which is an unfair victory.

What? You said Yae no Miko is Narukami's familiar, so why do you consider her to be in cahoots with Richard?

Hmph! I, Inazuma, have my own national conditions. I advise you not to speak recklessly, or my sword, the sword of the Okuzawa clan, may not be so sharp.

In short, General Thunder cannot lose. Even if he is slightly inferior, it is because the young man lacks martial ethics and bullies the weak with numbers.

Richard and Yae no Miko understood this, so they did not discuss what exactly happened in the Pure Land of One Heart. Moreover, even if the Shadow lost, it was not because of Richard or any one of the Yae no Miko, but because of the wishes of the people.

As Richard was pondering these thoughts, he noticed that the patrol group, which had apparently gone far away, had returned, and there seemed to be an extra person beside them.

It's Lynette.

"Linnet, why are you here?"

Upon hearing this, Lynette's eyes instantly turned deadpan. What did that mean? Did that mean I couldn't come?

I see you're having a great time at the General's Mansion, it seems you're enjoying yourself so much you're forgetting about Fengdan.

Richard, don't forget your roots!

“Someone is looking for you, saying they’re a friend of yours,” Lynette said.

"My friends?" Richard was a little confused. Most of his friends in Inazuma had already passed away, and the rest of his friends were in the house behind him.

“From Liyue,” Lynette added.

Richard was a bit confused. They came from Liyue. Judging from Lynette's appearance, she shouldn't be Ningguang, Liuyun, or Shenhe. So who could it be?

Zhongli? Controlling Water? Shaving the Moon?

These three don't seem like the type to come to Inazuma.

"I remember their name is... Ying, and they're accompanied by a self-propelled aircraft named Paimon. They're not just here to see you, they also want to see General Thunder." As Lynette spoke, she secretly observed Richard's expression.

You should know that the little girl named 'Ying' is quite sweet and cute, and belongs to the ideal type of person. It's just that her background is a bit pitiful. Like herself, she only has her brother left.

However, her own brother was still alive, but her brother was missing.

Looking at it this way, I'm actually a bit luckier.

"So it's them. They actually came to Inazuma at this time to see Ying... It must be about her brother's matter." Richard nodded to show he understood.

And it was just this simple sentence that contained so much information that Lynette was on high alert.

She even knows so much about her brother's affairs; they can't possibly be just ordinary friends.

Um... okay, it's really nothing. After all, Ying has never kept the fact that she's looking for her brother a secret from anyone, even I knew it when we first met, didn't I?

Lynette asked, "Should we see them?"

"Let's meet them, no, wait a minute, let me go ask Ying and the others what they think."

If Ying only wants to see Richard, then catching up is fine. But if she wants to see Ying, she'll have to ask Ying for his permission.

However, to be fair, Richard was not optimistic about whether Ying knew about Ying's missing brother.

After all, he didn't meet Ying's brother when he left Inazuma 3. Ying locked herself up, and she's been locked up ever since. It's impossible for her to have met her brother along the way.

If you really want to ask, Yae no Miko probably knows more than Kage.

"Shall we go ask now?" Lynette looked at the general's mansion behind Richard, not understanding why Richard was in the corridor.

Was he... kicked out?

“Let them finish talking,” Richard said. “By the way, how did Ying and Paimon find you?”

“They came directly to the embassy and gave your name. I happened to be having tea nearby,” Lynette said.

The Fontaine mission's visit to Inazuma has essentially come to an end, so Lynette is now free. It remains to be seen when Richard plans to return.

"Speaking of which, when do you plan to return to Fontaine? The Mo Mang Palace has been asking about it before." Linette wondered if Richard was reluctant to leave the two beautiful women in the General's Mansion.

It's really hard to say. After all, if Richard really married Yae no Miko and Kage, then he could basically do whatever he wanted in Inazuma.

In Fontaine, even if Richard married himself, Frynn, and Claurind, he probably wouldn't be able to act so arrogantly, unless he married Villette...

However, this is obviously impossible, as Villette is a male dragon, and Richard is also a male dragon.

"This weekend," Richard said after thinking for a moment. Since he had promised to help Shadow fix the Thunder General, he naturally had to keep his word.

Let's not expect a one-time solution, but at least we should finish the first version and then iterate slowly, right?

This thing is like a system. Once the underlying framework is built, all you need to do is guide how to maintain it. For example, you can communicate through email.

Besides, isn't Yae no Miko by Kage's side?

While Yae no Miko may not be able to completely rival Richard's governing abilities, she is certainly capable of achieving at least a 70-80% of them. Moreover, Yae no Miko has cultivated her relationship with Inazuma for many years, so she clearly understands Inazuma better than Richard, who has been away from Inazuma for a long time.

Therefore, Yae no Miko is also better able to implement localization policies than Richard, so the two sides are actually about the same.

Didn't Yae no Miko want to sit in the position of general for two days before?

You know what, if Yae no Kamiko really became a general, she would definitely do a better job than Raiden no Kamiko. At least she wouldn't be used by Kujo Takayuki, Bagu Zhengua Xingyi Su Su Su Jing Mo Mu Chao Huan Liu Yi Gu.

The reverse is more or less the same.

When it comes to cunning, who can outwit the wise and beautiful Lady Yae?

“The weekend… there are only a few days left.” Lynette calculated the days, then said, “I’ll go arrange the official ship first.”

Just as Lynette was about to turn around and go back to the embassy, ​​she heard the door behind Richard open.

Yae no Miko leaned gracefully against the doorframe, her hands supporting her ample bosom, and looked at Linette with a half-smile, saying, "Oh, isn't this our little kitten? What brings you to the General's mansion today?"

Lynette glanced at Yae no Miko, but the cat didn't intend to stoop to the fox's level. She simply instructed Richard, "Since you're going back this weekend, you should say goodbye to this fox lady properly."

However, the voice was loud, and it didn't sound like it was being spoken to Richard; rather, it sounded like it was being spoken to someone else.

As expected, Yae no Miko, who had been all smiles, lost a few smiles upon hearing these words.

However, the smile didn't disappear; instead, it moved to Lynette's little face.

Before Yae no Miko could continue speaking, Kage walked up behind her and patted her on the back, signaling her to be polite and not act improperly.

"This must be Miss Lynette, right? Come to think of it, we haven't officially met yet." Shadow had a faint smile on her face, and she didn't seem arrogant at all; on the contrary, she was very kind and approachable.

In fact, compared to the imposing and fierce image of Naruto in the public's mind, Kage is actually a very gentle person in private, well, a bit clumsy.

Compared to Yae no Miko's rich and somewhat overflowing emotional expression, Kage is much more reserved, even to the point of being described as dull. Therefore, in actual interactions, Kage gives Richard the impression of a simple and honest older sister in daily life.

In short, it has absolutely nothing to do with being aloof or cold.

The contrast is taken to the extreme.

G? Why does it feel like the character settings overlap again?

It seems that Fontainebleau also has its own Thor.

"Greetings, General." Compared to the disdainful Yae no Miko, Lynette clearly showed more respect for Kage.

Not only because Shadow seems much more reliable than Yae no Miko, but also because the other party is a genuine god.

However, reality may not be as Lynette imagined. In small matters, Shadow is indeed more reliable than God Child, but in big matters, God Child is much more mature than Shadow.

"Just call me Shadow."

“Then, Shadow, you can just call me Lynette.”

"Are you two on a blind date?" Yae no Miko couldn't stand it anymore, her slender eyebrows almost knitted together.

Please, you're rivals in love.

Lynette, what happened to the way you treated me like a wolf back then?

And Shadow, why be so gentle? What about your "Dream of One Heart" and "S Grass of Rice Light"?

Bored, I want to see rivers of blood!

However, both Shadow and Lynette ignored Yae no Miko's complaints.

Oh wait, Kage didn't ignore Yae no Miko's retort, but instead gently scolded, "Miko..."

Then, with a hint of apology, Ying looked at Lynette and invited, "Would you like to come and sit at my house?"

“Well… okay, thank you.” Lynette agreed readily after only a moment’s hesitation.

The loser does not lose the formation!

'Linette, remember this: you represent Fontaine now!' Linette encouraged herself in her heart.

Without a doubt, Ying is a very charming woman, but our little kitten is just as charming!

Shadow led Lynette to her seat, while Yae no Miko took advantage of the moment when Shadow was holding Lynette back to sit down next to Richard.

Lynette was helpless about this, but she didn't care too much. After all, your god is still here. No matter how outrageous Yae no Miko is, he can't do this or that to Richard in front of the Shadow, right?

Richard didn't care who he was sitting with; he hadn't forgotten why Lynette had come to him in the first place.

“Shadow, I have a friend who wants to meet you. Hmm… her background isn’t simple. If possible, I hope you can meet her,” Richard said.

“Okay.” Shadow had always been very indulgent towards Richard. Apart from the concept of “eternity,” she could basically do whatever Richard wanted.

Besides, it was just a meeting, and Ying didn't think it would be much trouble.

"Richard, is your friend a man or a woman?" Yae no Miko asked, never one to miss a good spectacle.

She was certain that Richard's friend was a woman, and a very beautiful one at that.

It wasn't that Richard was lustful, but she knew that Richard would never act as a matchmaker for a man.

Especially when the object is a shadow.

Don't let Richard's serious demeanor fool you; he's actually incredibly stingy and has an extremely strong possessive streak.

“She’s a woman named Ying. You should have heard of her, right?” Richard didn’t hide anything.

"Is she the traveler from afar who shone brightly in Liyue? I remember she also fought against Dvalin with you in Mondstadt, right?" Yae no Miko remembered the name.

Ever since confirming Richard's presence in Fontainebleau, Yae no Miko has been keeping a close eye on Richard's movements, fearing that the guy might disappear again if she wasn't careful.

So, incidentally, Yae no Miko also learned of Hikari's existence.

“Since it’s her, let her come. I’d also like to meet that little one,” Yae no Miko said.

Little guy… Richard looked at Yae no Miko, who is much older than you.

Oh well, beautiful girls are forever eighteen, let's just treat her as a little one.

At Shadow's command, Otsukuyomi quickly led Ying and Paimon to the main hall of the general's mansion.

Ying didn't expect to meet the God of Thunder so easily. After all, based on her previous experience, it seemed difficult to meet the local gods unless she was wanted by the authorities.

Volume 1: Chapter 145 Is your social circle really that chaotic?

"Wow, is this the General's Mansion? It feels so majestic. I can feel a strange tension as soon as I enter..." Paimon circled around Ying, looking around the General's Mansion like a country bumpkin visiting the Grand View Garden, and whispered to Ying.

Seeing that Ying did not reply, Paimon continued, "Speaking of which, who exactly is Richard? He has connections with so many gods, as if he knows everyone."

Paimon paused again, then added, "It's just that he doesn't seem to recognize your brother."

“Brother…” A hint of disappointment flashed in Ying’s eyes, but more than that, there was confusion.
