"Yeah..." A playful chuckle sounded under Knox's mask: "It sounds really resentful, but forgive me for not thinking about it that much. I just hate traveling without a traveling companion. You know, I People are most afraid of loneliness——"

"Why me?"

"Well - because you are beautiful? After all, as a traveling companion, of course it is better to be eye-catching."

"..."

Chapter 3 Gifts

"The sword of the demon god who wields the power of the night points at the throne of the sky. The earth is shrouded in night, and the war begins. Blood spreads across the sky, and the night is finally pierced by dawn... The demon god of night, Nenox, fell into the hands of heaven. But he is actually the only being who has pushed Tianli into despair for countless years."

Closing the dusty forbidden book titled "The End of Night", Ying couldn't help but let out a long breath, as if she was pouring out some suppressed emotions.

The book was picked up on the battlefield yesterday after the battle with the whirlpool demon Osel. It was probably the only copy that fell from the fallen Jade Pavilion.

"Hmm...I don't know why, but it feels weird~" Paimon's voice made Ying couldn't help but look sideways at her, and said softly: "It feels very epic, right?"

"Yes, yes! It feels epic! The Demon of the Night! When you fight, the whole land is shrouded in darkness. It sounds very cool!" Pamon floated in the air, his eyes shining excitedly: "Ni Nox— —If everything in the book is true, he must be a very handsome man!"

"Paimon has completely become a fan of the other party, but unfortunately, if what is recorded in the book is true, then the Night Demon God Nenox has been dead for 500 years."

......

Inazuma Castle, Winter Embassy.

Knox in the bathroom of the room walked out of the bathtub and came to the large mirror placed in the corner.

Knox looked at himself in the mirror with a faint smile on his face.

No matter in any aspect, this body can be described as perfect in terms of ornamental value, especially those foreign objects, which not only did not destroy this perfection, but actually added a touch of weird beauty.

They were seven rivets, and they were engraved into Knox's two upper arms, two knees, heart, lower abdomen... and the back of his neck that was invisible in the mirror.

A circle of icy blue lines are carved around these rivets, which look complex and cold.

Knox picked up the seven fire-attribute evil eyes placed next to his clothes, and the next moment his body was ignited with dark flames, which evaporated the remaining water vapor after getting out of the bath in an instant.

Putting on a long black coat of fine texture and a blank mask that covered his face, Knox left the bathroom. Seven evil eyes floated behind him, focusing on him one by one.

After walking out of the room, Knox said calmly to the debt handlers guarding the door: "Let's go to Kamisato Yashiki. Power is made up of people, and people will have desires. The secret to controlling a person is nothing more than increasing It’s just a gift of what you want and what you need, but I would like to see how noble the social practice is, which has emerged from the mud and remains unsullied.”

"Yes, sir!" There was uncontrollable enthusiasm in the voices of the two debt handlers——

......

Thunder tore through the night sky, and Inazuma City gradually turned into ruins in the black sea of ​​fire. The black forest that blocked the sky covered a large area of ​​Inazuma's land. The entire country was sinking into the ocean. The terrifying roar made the air tremble. Wails cut through the endless night, and the people of Dao Wife called out the names of their loved ones in their wails.

High in the sky above the night, three pairs of black wings were stretched out, and the masked man whose whole body was boiling with black material was laughing maniacally. Not far away from him, the Thunderbolt General in his divine costume was panting violently——

This is the scene that Yae Shenzi suddenly saw in her mind when she was playing with the Yantian Bell a few days ago. After that, she had no intention of getting involved in the affairs of the Fools. The level of attention suddenly reached the highest level.

God-level combat power and the means to destroy Ina Wife made it impossible for the Son of God to ignore this person's existence.

"If you see something bad, you must work hard to change it."

Those words always lingered in her ears.

"Master Palace Secretary, [the deceased] took two members of the Fools to Kamisato Yashiki." After the sound of hurried footsteps, this sentence came from behind.

Yae Shenzi sighed softly and pinched his brows slightly tiredly: "I know, send a greeting card to the Kamisato family...forget it, let's set off now."

......

"Oh, it's so disturbing to come to visit so late." Knox said in a frivolous and cheerful tone to the perfectly groomed girl with a high ponytail on the other side of the table: "It's a small gift here but it's not disrespectful, so why don't you invite Miss Kamisato?" Accept it."

As soon as he finished speaking, the debt handler beside him brought up a long sandalwood box and placed it on the table.

The head of the club, the eldest daughter of the Kamisato family, Ayaka Kamisato, didn't even look at the wooden box. Her expression and eyes were very calm and she said to the uninvited guest who barged into the mansion without permission: "Then Executive Officer Is there something important that Mr. Sir dares to break into a private house? If it is just to send a gift, then I may be sorry to make Mr. Executive Officer’s trip in vain. The Kamisato family is in a special position and cannot accept gifts from envoys from other countries. Please excuse me."

"Don't say that. In officialdom, it's true that I am the envoy of the Solstice, but now in private, I am only representing myself. I have admired Miss Kamisato for a long time, so giving a gift is the right thing to do to make a friend. , I hope Miss Kamisato will show some respect and at least... open it and take a look first." Knox said with a smile, as if he really came here to make friends.

Kamisato Ayaka did not move, still looking calm: "It is Ayaka's honor to be favored by Mr. Executive Officer. I wonder if Mr. Executive Officer knows about Liyue culture. There is an old saying that the friendship between gentlemen is indifferent. Ru Shui, if Mr. Executive Officer wants to make friends with Ayaka, please take back the gift."

The corner of Knox's mouth raised under the mask, haha... This young girl is unexpectedly a bit difficult to deal with.

He waved gently, and the debt handler beside him immediately stepped forward and opened the wooden box. In an instant, a ray of purple light rushed out, and the air in the room became a little sharp.

Lying in the sandalwood box is a long purple knife. It is gorgeous but not cumbersome, enchanting but not weird. The blade has cloud patterns, and the blade will sting when you look at it.

"I wonder if Miss Kamisato recognizes this sword?" Knox said with a smile.

At this moment, after seeing the knife in the box, even Kamisato Ayaka couldn't help but feel a little moved.

"Fog Cut...Returning Light." He subconsciously murmured the name of the sword. Kamisato Linghua couldn't help but marvel in his heart. He didn't expect that this legendary sword that only existed in story books, drawings and nursery rhymes would actually be in the hands of fools. in hand.

"As expected, she is the eldest lady of the Kamisato family. She is very discerning. Speaking of which, we fools have spent a lot of effort to find this sword. It is also the most convenient weapon in my hand. But I heard that Miss Kamisato She is extremely skilled in swordsmanship, and her skill with the Kamisato-style sword is superb. With a precious sword and a woman, this Kirigiri is not buried with Miss Kamisato. I think that if there is any crisis in the future, Miss Kamisato can have this sword to help. I will definitely be able to protect my family’s safety…”

Kamisato Ayaka's expression moved slightly. Facing the legendary temptation of the famous sword and the vaguely threatening words of the executive of the Fools, although her heart was still calm, she was already somewhat aware of the Fools' approach this time. Fierce.

Just as she was thinking about how to deal with it, the sound of hurried footsteps broke the rigid atmosphere in the room——

A servant appeared outside the door of the reception room. After bowing, he came to Kamisato Ayaka regardless of etiquette and whispered: "Miss, the Palace Secretary is here..."

Before the servant could finish his words, a slightly charming and pleasant voice broke in - "Oh, isn't this the Reflection of Kirigiri given by the General to his subordinates? It actually appeared here. I really have to thank the fools for this. Ina Wife has found the lost national treasure~"

Chapter 4 Completely taking control of Rice Wife?

Along with the voice appeared a pink-haired beauty with top-notch figure and appearance.

A miko costume shows off a bit of mystery. A pair of pink fox ears are mixed with long hair of the same color, making it difficult to tell which ones are hair and which ones are ears at first glance.

The moment he saw the face of the visitor clearly, Knox was slightly startled. He was sure that he had never seen such a person before, but he couldn't help but feel an inexplicable sense of familiarity in his heart——

But familiarity is familiar, which is not the reason why you want to buy my weapons for nothing.

Knox smiled, and when the pink-haired miko naturally sat next to Miss Kamisato opposite, he wanted to reach out and close the box and take it back. After all, although he had never seen it before, it did not affect his ability to pass through the fools. The intelligence channel learned that this woman, Yae Shenzi, the palace minister of Narukami Taisha Shrine, was classified by the fools into a category that they could not win over.

Now that this woman has appeared, sending Kirigiri out is like a meat bun beating a dog. However, before he put his hand on Kirigiri, a slender white hand pressed on it first, and the other party ignored the promise. In response to the reaction of Kes and Kamisato Ayaka, they took out the Kirigiri and stuffed it into Kamisato Ayaka's hands, and said teasingly: "But since Mr. Executive Officer found the thing and gave it to Miss Kamisato, I also I won’t ruin the scenery at this time.”

After saying that, she seemed to have just seen Knox's outstretched hand. She covered her mouth in shock and said in surprise: "Oh, Mr. Executive Officer, is this... does he want to take back the gift he sent? No. Is that so? The executive officers who are all fools... shouldn’t be so ungraceful, right?”

"..." Knox suddenly wanted to grab the opponent's fox ears and pull them hard a few times, but his reason told him that this was not appropriate, so he naturally placed his hand on the sandalwood knife box. A sinister smile came from under the mask: "How could it be? I just suddenly wanted to try to see if sandalwood would be more fragrant if burned directly."

As soon as he finished speaking, a wisp of black flame flowed from his fingertips, swallowing up the sandalwood box in an instant, and a rich fragrance did burst into the air, but it was just very pungent.

"Oh, it seems to be too fragrant." Knox said with a smile, and then a light breeze blew up around him, sweeping all the pungent fragrance in the air to the other side. Yes, he is such a small-bellied chicken. I like disgusting and wrong people so much.

"Cough cough... cough cough..." Kamisato Ayaka was choked by the pungent smell. Yae Kamiko waved her hand gently, and a pink halo circulated, and the air suddenly became clear.

"Haha, Mr. Executive Officer is really curious."

"I am at this age when I am full of curiosity about the world~"

"May I ask Mr. Executive Officer, Mr. Gui Geng?"

"Hehe, I forgot."

"What's your surname, Miss Fox? Why don't you introduce yourself?"

"Oh, Mr. Executive Officer is really good at joking. How come all these fools with so many magical powers don't have any information about me?"

"Look at what you said, we are a serious organization, how can we spy on other countries' intelligence for no reason..."

"Ha ha……"

On the surface, Knox was talking nonsense to Yae Shenzi, but in fact he knew very well in his heart that after the arrival of this great miko, there was no possibility of achieving the purpose of his trip. The confrontation was just a preparation for the final request.

"Speaking of this rice wife, this is my first time here, but the cultural scene here is very attractive to me——"

"This is really a thank you to Mr. Executive Officer for affirming Inazuma culture~"

"By the way, I suddenly remembered that among Inazuma's three major devotions, shōshō seems to be the cultural representative of Inazuma, right? Miss Kamisato is also the eldest lady of the Kamisato family who is in charge of shōshō, and it is said that shōshō is the culture representative of Inazuma It’s not too much to say that you are the one who knows the most -” Knox said with a smile: “I happen to be free tomorrow, how about Miss Kamisato accompany me to visit Inazuma to satisfy my yearning and knowledge of Inazuma culture. ?”

After Yae Shenzi came in, Kamisato Ayaka, who had secretly breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly perked up and his eyes showed vigilance.

"I don't think it's possible that Dao-Wife won't even satisfy me with this request? After all, I am also an envoy who comes with the sincerity of Winter... right?" Knox finally showed his fox tail.

Yae Kamiko's eyes narrowed: "Since Mr. Executive Officer likes Inazuma's culture so much, how about letting me be the tour guide? Although the little girl of Kamisato's family is the eldest daughter of the society, when it comes to her understanding of Inazuma's customs, I'm still above her~"

"I'm afraid this is inappropriate. How can you be so condescending, Lord Palace Secretary?" Knox's tone was still smiling: "Besides, I am allergic to fox fur——"

click...

The tea cup in Yae Shenzi's hand suddenly made a crisp sound, but his funny and squinting expression did not change at all: "Then it is better to wait for the head of the Kamisato family to come back later..."

"After some time?" Knox interrupted Yae Shenzi's words very rudely, and then said with dissatisfaction: "Master Palace Secretary, do you think I am very idle? As an envoy to Inazuma, My work is very busy, and tomorrow is still the time I finally squeezed out. I have been working hard for this day for countless days and nights, but I just want to satisfy my curiosity about Inazuma culture. Miyaji Your Excellency, however, has repeatedly shied away from obstruction. Is this how Dao Wife treats envoys from other countries? I Zhidong kindly retrieved the lost national treasure for Dao Wife, but why are you so negligent? Is this what Dao Wife is? Is this what the community practices? Dong learned the lesson."

"..." The corner of Yae Shenzi's mouth twitched slightly under his smile. This person's shamelessness was somewhat beyond her expectation.

At this time, Kamisato Ayaka couldn't help but frowned beautifully. In the ears of Inazuma, who was very fond of reputation, Knox's words could be said to be very serious, especially when Kamisato Ayaka was still to some extent. On behalf of the community, she has almost zero tolerance for the stain of her family and her profession, so she couldn't help but speak: "I'm just accompanying Mr. Executive Officer to act as a tour guide, since this is a small request from the Winter Envoy. , Ayaka should be satisfied."

Yae Shenzi sighed slightly in her heart, but the words of the Winter Envoy came to this point, so she had no choice but to acquiesce to Ayaka Kamisato's behavior of agreeing to Knox's request.

"Ha - I knew that Ina Wife would never do something like this. Haha, come on, let's drink tea instead of wine to the friendship between Ina Wife and Zhi Dong~" Knox smiled with satisfaction.

......

On the way back, one of the two debt handlers following Knox couldn't help but said: "My lord... I don't understand why your lord is so obsessed with the eldest lady of the Kamisato family, and he doesn't hesitate to give it away for nothing. Your Majesty’s sword... We have basically penetrated the three major pursuits of Tianling and Determining. Even if we give up on the society, it will not affect the overall situation, right?"

"That's because you are stupid. You also know that we have two of the three major principles? Let me ask you, who is in charge of Ina Wife now?"

"Um...the Three Great Commitments and General Thunder?"

"Then if we master the social order and contain the high-end combat power of General Raiden and Yae Shenzi, what will this mean?"

"..." The debt handler was suddenly startled, and his tone was trembling: "Completely... take charge of Rice Wife?!"

Chapter 5 Reunion

"So - this is your plan?"

In the dim room, the only source of light was the warm fire in the fireplace. Columbia sat on the chair in front of the desk and casually asked Knox, who was sitting unceremoniously on her bed over there. .

"Plan? You actually think of this as a plan?" Knox waved his hand nonchalantly: "This is just a random move that suddenly came up, or... it's just a game. Plans or something, we still have to wait for [Skirmler] ] Or we can wait until [Ms.] comes, I’m not interested in getting that thing from the Evil Eye Factory.”

"So you threw away your weapons for a game?"

"Haha, that Kirigiri was not thrown away in vain." Knox seemed to be in a good mood, and the smile he showed after taking off his mask made Columbia even have to look away deliberately.

"Kirikiri was given to the eldest lady of the Kamisato family by the great shrine maiden, but that knife does have some symbolic meaning to Inazuma..." Knox smiled warmly: "Let's see, if we meet again tomorrow, then The knife is still in the hands of the eldest lady, then continue to lure her for profit, but if it is no longer there...then use affection. For the great cause of Zhi Dong - there is nothing wrong with sacrificing some sex~ "

"..." Columbia's hand movements paused slightly, and she didn't know how to respond.
