Chapter 20 Kujo Sara’s Determination
“Master, the Tenryo Bugyo still won’t let you go.”
Toma, the household official of the Kamisato family, returned to the Mokuro Teahouse.
He reported the news in great distress.
The Kamisato family lost one Kamisato Ayaka, which may not be a big loss for the entire shrine bugyo.
But for Kamisato Ayato alone, it was like the sky falling.
He grew up with his sister since childhood.
He also regarded his sister and the entire Kamisato family as the most important existence in his heart.
But now Kamisato Ayaka hasn’t shown up for a week.
Even though Kujo Sara has repeatedly assured him.
He is still worried.
Especially now that the castle tower has been closed.
Except for the Yae God of Narukami Taisha.
Only Kujo Sara is qualified to enter and leave the castle tower.
However, even Kujo Sara himself had never seen the General of Thunder.
This made Kamisato Ayato even more worried.
Could it be that the god of Inazuma… was actually dead?
The so-called god in the castle tower was just an illusion?
Perhaps the foreign god was not in the castle tower at all?
Of course, speculation is speculation.
But what is the truth?
Kamisato Ayato did not have the courage to explore.
The only thing he was worried about was whether his sister had seen the so-called truth.
And was imprisoned?
Or…
Another possibility was something he absolutely did not want to think about.
“This time, I will go myself.”
Thoma had applied on his behalf in the previous few times.
This time, Kamisato Ayato planned to go to the castle tower alone.
To pay a visit to the god.
No matter what the outcome is.
He wants to know about his sister’s situation.
And there are people who have the same idea.
It’s not just Kamisato Ayato.
Takyuki Kujo, the magistrate of the Heavenly Court, has also come.
After General Raiden didn’t show up, he became even more worried.
And these days, Yae Kamiko has been transporting things to the castle tower non-stop.
This makes it even more mysterious.
Although Takyuki Kujo hopes that there will be a tall person to support Inazuma.
But he doesn’t want to be kept in the dark.
In front of the castle tower gate.
He saw Kamisato Ayato who came with him.
Perhaps in the past, they didn’t get along well.
But now the situation is different.
Inazuma is in trouble.
The gods are nowhere to be found.
If he didn’t know the truth, he would have trouble sleeping and eating.
“It’s been a long time since we last met, Lord Kujo.”
Kamisato Ayato really didn’t like the person in charge of the Tenryo Bugyo.
But no matter how much they hated him, they were both the managers of the three Bugyo under General Raiden.
“It seems that we have the same idea, Lord Kamisato.”
There was a hint of disdain in Kujo Takayuki’s tone.
The magistrate had long been lonely.
And the current head is the young man Kamisato Ayato.
As an elder.
He has a certain degree of superiority.
Not to mention the low-competitiveness of the magistrate.
But in front of the castle tower.
There are still some necessary courtesies.
The magistrate is just lonely.
Also… It’s not completely gone.
The two people who were not in harmony with each other had already made plans without much discussion and went to the castle tower together.
After all, they were two of the three people with the highest status in Inazuma, in addition to General Raiden and Yae God.
If they went to the castle tower together.
Perhaps they would really be qualified to meet the gods.
“Sorry, Master of the House, Master Kamisato, no one can enter the castle tower without the permission of the gods!”
Kujo Sara stopped the two.
“Sara, I have something important to report to the General.”
Kujo Takayuki was unhappy.
But he didn’t force his way in.
This adopted daughter still has a high status in the Tenryo Bugyo and the shogunate army.
“Then please report the important matter to me, Master of the House, and I will hand it over to the General! ”
At this moment, Kujo Sara couldn’t let anyone in.
Whether it was the warning from Yae Shinko.
Or the words from Kamisato Ayaka.
They were all warning her of the seriousness of the matter.
Especially since Kamisato Ayaka had told her.
If she was not careful.
It is very likely to cause changes in the Inazuma regime.
This made Kujo Sara even more frightened.
Whether it was replaced by the Three Magistrates or something else.
There would be changes.
But what Kamisato Ayaka said was obviously not that simple.
When the time comes The replacement may be a god.
This also made Kujo Sara dare not slack off or expect anything.
She could only do the task given by the Eightfold God Child seriously.
Even if she herself, in addition to delivering three meals.
Never stepped into the castle tower!
At this moment, even if the head of the Kujo family and the head of the Kamisato family came.
She would not let them go.
She stayed outside the castle tower silently.
Even if she knew that the war on the front line was tense, she never left.
“No compromise?”
Kamisato Ayato saw the seriousness of Kujo Sara.
This is really not going to let anyone in.
“This matter is of great importance! I must report it to the general in person! ”
Kujo Takayuki’s eyes widened with anger.
Even an adopted daughter.
Dare to talk to him like this at this moment.
For him who is obsessed with power.
This is even more of a provocation!
“All the soldiers listenOrder! If anyone tries to break into the castle tower, arrest them immediately! No matter if they are dead or alive! ”
Kujo Sara immediately issued a death order.
Comparing the Kujo family with the divine power of the Raiden General.
It is not worth mentioning at all.
Even if the Kujo family will be destroyed because of this.
She will not hesitate!
Kujo Takayuki’s face was extremely ugly.
But looking at the shogunate troops who had already pointed their spears at him.
He was helpless.
“Then… Miss Sara, can you let your sister show up to meet me? ”
Can we enter the castle tower?
Kamisato Ayaka doesn’t have high expectations.
But his real purpose is to see how his sister is doing.
As long as Ayaka is fine, everything will be fine.
“Sorry… Unless it’s time to deliver food, even I can’t step into the castle tower myself. If Kamisato wants to see you, I can tell Miss Ayaka, provided that she is willing to come out to meet me.”
But Kujo Sara doesn’t think Kamisato Ayaka will come out.
She herself doesn’t know the situation in the castle tower.
But Kamisato Ayaka must know.
If it’s really serious to the point where it’s unspeakable.
Maybe Kamisato Ayaka herself is unwilling to come down.
