As a general, she cannot be a good daughter of Kage.

Xinhai immediately opened his eyes and looked at her aggrievedly. During this period, he puffed up his face slightly as if to say, "You bully me~!" '.

"good evening."

The general received it teasingly.

"Well...how long have I been sleeping?"

Xinhai stood up slightly and covered his forehead, feeling confused.

"Two hours."

"Two - no, dinner party!"

"It hasn't started yet."

she answered.

"Huh... that's great."

Xinhai breathed a sigh of relief, and then lay down on the woman in front of him, intending to relieve his hazy sleepiness.

"I fell asleep again after a while..."

She gently pinched the girl's face and said dotingly and helplessly.

"Well...get up..."

Xinhai lazily got up and shook her head to wake herself up. She had to attend the dinner party later, so she couldn't delay it.

The general also stood up and put the military book he had read next to him on the bookshelf. Xinhai put the light novel in his hand back into the desk drawer again, and then looked at her.

"Let's go, General, let's go to the party together."

Xinhai, who had returned to his original state, smiled and invited her.

"Let's go."

So, she and the living goddess miko who had just finished their sleep put on their shoes and walked out of the bedroom, walked out of the Coral Palace... passed the path next to them, and headed towards the beach in the west direction of Kaiji Island.

The dinner had just begun when the two arrived. Several torches were lit on the edge of the beach, and there was a huge bonfire in the center. There were banquets all around, including wine, meat and vegetables. For Haiji Island, this meal today It's a huge expense, after all, it's impossible to grow such common ingredients due to the contamination of the holy soil.

The banquet covered about half of the nearby beach. It was densely packed with people, not to mention very lively. The smell of fragrant dishes and people's laughter rushed to the face, and even the sound of the waves of the sea was drowned out.

Basically, the residents, businesses, and soldiers of Haiji Island all come here to attend the dinner party, and it happens to be night time, so under the light of the lights, this area has a more lively atmosphere.

(Lord Coral Palace!)×N

(Lord Coral Palace is here!)×N

The moment Xinhai walked over, everyone immediately focused their attention on her and called her name with excitement. The general sighed when he saw their appearance. It felt like he regarded Xinhai as a god. However, it is understandable that the living God Miko can be considered a descendant of the Great God of the Sea.

"Well, everyone has worked hard these days."

After Xinhai said this to them, he led the general towards the seaside.

Seeing this, everyone stopped yelling and chatted with each other as before. Although the dinner had begun, they did not move their chopsticks because they had to wait for Lord Coral Palace to speak.

"It seems that the celebration banquet is almost ready, but before the banquet begins, I still have to give a brief speech."

The two came to the beach where there were relatively few people, and Xinhai looked at the general.

"Can your body hold on?"

she asked.

"Don't worry, it's absolutely okay... With you by my side these past few days, my mood has become a little lighter, and after just resting, my energy is +3~!"

Xinhai smiled at her such a cute reply.

"Okay. Don't force it."

The general looked at the girl who smiled at her and responded with a slight breath.

"Um…"

Xinhai nodded obediently.

"Lord Coral Palace."

The next second, the soldiers in the distance came over and stood next to Xinhai.

"Are you ready?"

Xinhai asked.

"Yes, everything is ready, it's time for you to take the stage."

"Okay...I'll go right away. Mio, I'm leaving, okay?"

Xinhai nodded to her and then flexibly changed his title to her, waving his hand to her affectionately, and the general raised his hand in response.

After that, Xinhai walked up to the wooden platform built by the soldiers, and stood in front of everyone. Everyone looked at her intently, and for a while, the surroundings fell into a rare silence.

"..."×N

She first silently lowered her eyes and glanced at the expressions of everyone, including old people, young people, children, soldiers, and businessmen. Among them, she found the general standing in the other corner who was also looking at her. She gave him a gentle smile and then began to talk to everyone. A simple speech can be regarded as a process no matter what.

"Everyone has worked hard, today is our celebration party."

The clear spring-like voice accompanied by the delicate enunciation intonation spread into everyone's ears like sweet rain.

"In the past period of time, our war with the shogunate army came to an end, and we also witnessed the abolition of the Eye Hunting Order."

"..."×N

Everyone listened quietly.

"I can't predict what Inazuma's future will be like, but I will definitely be responsible for all of you, in the name of my Coral Palace Heart Sea."

She paused and then spoke again,

"Tomorrow I will start peace talks with the shogunate to strive for peace on Kaiji Island."

She did not say that she wanted to pursue peace talks with Tian Ling, because she knew that the person she was negotiating with was the shogun, who represented the shogunate, Narukami Island and Inazuma, and her words needed to be changed.

"..."×N

Some of the soldiers below frowned slightly at this moment, and some even looked around with stern eyebrows. The soldiers on the opposite side also nodded to him, as if they had colluded with each other. Some people also showed dissatisfaction, but these were only a small part. Most of them subconsciously showed a hopeful smile after hearing the word 'peace'.

"Thank you for your continued efforts. It is because of your efforts that our goals can be achieved."

Xinhai covered his chest and spoke to them sincerely.

"Today's celebration is prepared for everyone present. I hope everyone can enjoy this hard-won peace."

(Oh——!!!)×N

(Yeah!)×N

(Long live peace!) ×

(It’s great to finally stop worrying, isn’t it, old man?)

(Yes, alas...I have finally been looking forward to this day!)

The people below began to celebrate, laughter echoed, and everywhere was filled with the desire and expectation for peace. Some mothers even cried while holding their children.

"thank you all…"

Seeing this scene, Xinhai was a little moved and her eyes were red, but she didn't cry, she just thanked her softly from the bottom of her heart and bowed.

Thank you too, General.

Xinhai, who stepped down from the stage, looked at the people around him who had already started eating and smiled.

“No need to be restrained, everyone, let’s have your fill of wine and meat tonight!”

She said loudly to everyone.

"Thank you Coral Palace-sama!!"×N

Everyone picked up their quilts and toasted her.

"Ah."

Xinhai also raised her glass in response to them and toasted together. She only took a small sip of this one, but the others did. She couldn't compare to these people's drinking capacity.

Then after everyone started eating, drinking and having fun again, she walked towards the table in the corner, because there were people she cared about there.

Sure enough~

The purple-haired beauty was sitting at the banquet with her head in a daze in boredom, her legs under her skirt were raised casually, and her black silk feet wearing high heels were swaying back and forth in a dangling posture. She was the only one at the table, and there were only a few dishes in front of her. She might have chosen this table specially to avoid the crowd.

"……call."

Seeing the lonely scene of this purple-haired woman, Xinhai couldn't help but sigh with distress, and then walked to a miko holding a wine tray.

"Lord Coral Palace, what are your orders?"

The miko saw her arrival and bowed politely.

"Please give me a glass of ice juice."

After Xinhai glanced at the beauty that made her feel distressed, she then gave instructions to the witch in front of her.

"Ok."

Kacha~

The miko skillfully poured the juice into the cup and handed it to Xinhai.

"It's work."

After giving a polite greeting, he turned and walked in the direction of the woman.

The general, who was sitting alone in the seat, was looking at everything in front of her in a trance, and the lively atmosphere reflected a vivid and warm light in her eyes.

For some reason, she felt a little sleepy at the moment, and her eyelids even drooped a little.

At this moment she felt someone getting closer to her.

pat~

Then I felt a cold feeling on the other side of my face.

"!"
