King Ember's Journey to Tevat

Chapter 458: Palace Secretary’s Partner

"Wait!" Yae Shenzi said, but Yu Yan's figure had long since disappeared.

She looked at the empty inner hall of Narukami Grand Shrine and suddenly felt anxious.

Ember is obviously someone who opposes the Lockdown Order and the Eye Hunting Order. Since this is the case, it means that he can be won over.

Just now, Yae Shenzi wanted to persuade Ember to join their "anti-Thunder God plan", but unfortunately he has disappeared now.

Arriving outside the main shrine, Yae Shenzi saw a group of shrine maidens who were extremely frightened.

"Where's that tin can just now?" Yae Kamiko asked to the miko below.

"Returning to the Palace Secretary, that person just jumped down!"

"Jump down?"

"Yes! Just jumped off the top of the mountain."

After a brief conversation, Yae Kamiko arrived at the entrance of Narukami Taisha Shrine, which is on the edge of the top of Mt. Kage.

Looking down from a distance, Yae Shenzi saw a brand new pit at the bottom of the mountain. No need to think about it, this must have been just dropped by the embers.

"This kind of strength is rare." Yae Shenzi looked at the deep pit on the ground, and then thought of the scene when he received the sword of General Thunder and Lightning in the imperial duel before, Yae Shenzi became more determined in his idea of ​​recruiting Ember to join the gang.

Why is she acting in secret? Isn't it because her personal strength is too different from that of the shogunate?

"Looks like we have to find a way to stop him." Having made up his mind, Yae Shenzi wanted to stop Yu Yan.

Although it is true that Ember took down General Thunder and Lightning, there is probably a question mark as to whether General Thunder and Lightning used his full strength.

Ember's behavior was undoubtedly in direct opposition to the entire shogunate. The danger involved can be imagined, and Yae Shenzi felt that he had to stop him.

Yae Shenzi raised his feet and wanted to run down the mountain. But she suddenly remembered what Ember had just told her.

[If you have time, walk this mountain road by yourself! 】

"In that case, let me take a walk." Yae Shenzi took back the power she mobilized. She looked at the mountain road in front of the big shrine that was shrouded in red torii gates, and walked slowly down.

It's quite a distance from Narukami Taisha Shrine to Inazuma Castle, and the time it takes for Ember to travel should be enough for her to reach the foot of the mountain.

To put it ten thousand steps back, even if Yu Yan could really make it to Daozuma City, he would have a head-on conflict with Tian Ling Xu Xing.

But even so, they can still send people to rescue Yan Yan, and at that time it is a timely help, and are they worried that Yan Yan will not join the team?

With this thought in his mind, Yae Shenzi's steps down the mountain became even more brisk.

……

Ember once saw a spacious mansion at the entrance to the mountain road up the Kage Mt., and this mansion was the Kamisato Yashiki.

At the same time, this is also the destination of Yae Shenzi’s trip.

In an unknown secret room in Kamisato Yashiki, Yae Kamiko was sitting opposite a blue-haired man.

The man has a mole at the corner of his mouth, and there is always a slight arc between the corners of his eyes, making it unclear what he is thinking about.

"It's rare for Miyaji-sama to look like this." Kamisato Ayato looked at the Eightfold Divine Son in front of him.

Although the palace minister's face was still as plain as before, Ayato Kamisato still saw a clue.

The dignified pink hair was a little messy and looked like it had been tidied up in a hurry, and Yae Kamiko himself was breathing a little quickly.

"The boy from the Kamisato family is still so annoying." Yae Kamiko saw something strange about Kamisato Ayato at a glance, and couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

The only thing to blame is that the road down the mountain is really difficult. Normally, when the Eightfold Godson goes down the mountain, he jumps and runs around in the mountains. Today, finding the path to go down the mountain unexpectedly turned out to be more difficult than usual without walking.

It’s as if this road doesn’t exist at all. Walking on the road has more disadvantages than not walking on it, so it’s better to just demolish it.

"Haha, why did Mr. Palace Secretary have the leisure to come to my Kamisato Yashiki today?" Kamisato Ayato said haha. He did not expect that the Yae Divine Son would come here today.

"Okay, is there anyone else here? You're pretending to be pretty." Yae Kamiko saw the warm spring breeze-like smile on Kamisato Ayato's face and waved his hand in disgust.

"Since the Son of God says so, I won't be polite."

"Have you come here to make any progress in the research on the Heart of God?" Even though this place is hidden enough, when Kamisato Ayato said this, his voice still became softer unconsciously.

"Well, that's almost it. We're just waiting for the right candidate." Yae Shenzi nodded.

"I have a suitable candidate here. Take a look." Kamisato Ayato was thoughtful after hearing this, and then took out a photo.

The ones on top of the photo are Ying and Paimon with bright smiles.

"Ying, a newly emerging adventurer. I heard that she is traveling in the Seven Kingdoms and will be coming to Inazuma soon."

"This person is not only powerful, but judging from the client's evaluation, she is an adventurer who will definitely complete the commission she receives."

“This is true no matter how much the commission fee is or how sinister the content of the commission is!”

Kamisato Ayato also emphasized the last sentence.

"Her? I've heard a little bit about it." Yae Shenzi thought for a while and then nodded.

"Yes, Ying is a suitable candidate."

After saying that, she stuffed the photo back to Kamisato Ayato. He continued: "But it's not because of her that I came here this time."

"Oh? What is that?" Hearing this, Ayato Kamisato had a hint of curiosity in his eyes.

Kamisato Ayato is still very clear about his evaluation in Yae Shenzi's heart.

It can be said that if it weren't for the fact that the two of them had the same goal, the palace minister would probably go around him when he saw him, so why would he come specifically to find him?

"Because of the embers."

"Ember? Could it be that you think he is a suitable candidate?"

Kamisato Ayato frowned when he heard this. Ember and Ying can be said to be the two most famous people in the Adventurers Association recently.

Not only are they famous among the upper echelons for their participation in various events, but they are also famous among the public for their ultra-high commission completion rate and ultra-fast commission completion speed.

But unlike Yingqing's unanimous praise, many people seemed to be overwhelmed by their comments about Ember, and couldn't come up with a clear answer after a long time of commenting.

Yae Shenzi chose him as a suitable candidate. Is there something he didn't know about it?

"Of course not!" Yae Kamiko rolled his eyes at Kamisato Ayato. If Inazuma's wishes were carried by him, something might happen.

"He's going to cause trouble for Tian Ling. You have to find a way to stop him. If it doesn't work, you have to fish him out!"

"He's here?!"

Kamisato Ayato was surprised. People like Ember came to Inazuma, but they didn't notice at all in the final episode!

"It looks like it's been a while."

"He has been hanging out near the battlefield. It's normal that you don't know."

Seeing Ayato Kamisato's thoughtful look, Kamiko Yae explained.

"Well, stopping him will be of great benefit to us." Kamisato Ayato heard that Ember had been staying near the battlefield, and he knew why he was not found in the final episode.

In the final episode, most of the members are waiting in the dark on Narukami Island, with a small number outside Narukami Island, and mainly on Kaiji Island.

There are very few who can be on the battlefield.

It's not that battlefield information is unimportant, it's just that anyone with a discerning eye can see that the stalemate between the shogunate army and the resistance army has become a certainty, and its importance has naturally plummeted.

"Benefits? Aren't you already unhappy with the people who are following Tian Ling?"

"Do you think it's better to let him cause trouble once, or to make trouble all the time?"

"Of course I hope he can keep causing trouble." Kamisato Ayato smiled softly when he heard this. If this was the case, then he would have to take action.
