"Is that so? Then I'll leave it to you, Lumine."
Here we go again. Paimon covered his head and sighed deeply. Does this guy know Durandal is right here? How dare he still flirt like that? Is he just giving up? Or is Sangonomiya Kokomi too alluring, causing him to forget what might happen?
As for Lumine's actions, Durandal just glanced a few times and made no other moves. Perhaps she was already used to it, or perhaps she was tired and didn't want to bother anymore.
"Also, regarding the Fatui, the Delusions couldn't have been brought in by them from outside. The fact that they can provide the Rebel Army with so many Delusions means they have a factory specifically for making Delusions within Inazuma. We need to find this factory and wipe them out."
"Hmm, I think so too. Please give me some time. I'm currently only lacking clues from those who possess Delusions. As long as they provide clues, I can roughly pinpoint the location of the Delusion factory."
Sangonomiya Kokomi had already deduced from the previous clues that the Delusion factory was on Yashiori Island. As long as she could find out from the soldiers who received the Delusions where they got them, she could narrow down the factory's location.
"Once the location of the Delusion factory is found, I will send people to patrol the vicinity to locate the factory."
"No, with the current situation of the Rebel Army, we can't do such a thing." Durandal shook her head. "Next, the Rebel Army will start confiscating Delusions. Such a big move definitely won't be hidden from the Fatui. If you really patrol that area, the Fatui stationed nearby will definitely discover it, and with their speed, they will definitely evacuate in the shortest possible time. Then, we won't be able to catch anyone."
Moreover, with the Rebel Army's strength, they probably wouldn't be a match for the Fatui. What if they discover their stronghold? It would probably just lead to more deaths.
Sangonomiya Kokomi underestimated the Fatui's strength a little. Although they had dealt with countless members of the advance teams, those people were not so easy for ordinary people to defeat.
"And, you're not the only one who wants to find the location of the Delusion factory, Sangonomiya Kokomi."
As soon as she finished speaking, a bird flew in through the crack in the door, eagerly flying to Durandal's shoulder and chirping at her.
Sangonomiya Kokomi didn't understand what this scene meant, but Lumine immediately reacted and asked, "Did you already have them help you find the location of the Delusion factory?"
"Hmm, not long after that Shogunate soldier left, I had them start moving. It was hidden quite secretly; it actually took so long."
She gently rubbed the bird' head, praised it for doing a good job this time, gave it a small reward, and encouraged it to keep working hard.
"Then you stay at Sangonomiya Shrine and find the Fatui hidden in the Rebel Army. Shenhe and I will go to that Delusion factory and deal with all the Fatui there."
And while I'm at it, see if I can find the Balladeer. If I can find him this time, I won't let him go no matter what. Durandal will bring him before Raiden Ei and let her personally judge that guy.
"You... are you going alone? Is that really okay? Do you need me to gather a team to go with you?"
Sangonomiya Kokomi, who knew nothing about Durandal, felt that such behavior was too risky and wanted some members of the Rebel Army to accompany Durandal.
Durandal ignored Sangonomiya Kokomi, merely glanced at her, then took Shenhe's hand, and the two transformed into a black mist, disappearing from the room, leaving Sangonomiya Kokomi stunned.
What a cool way to leave... No! How did she manage to leave like that? Is this... is this something an ordinary person can do?
Sangonomiya Kokomi looked at Lumine and Paimon, hoping they could explain what was going on.
"Very impressive, right? Don't underestimate Durandal. Even though she's cute, she's also very strong. The Vision Hunt Decree was abolished because she won the Duel Before the Throne against the Raiden Shogun."
"Won the Duel Before the Throne against the Raiden Shogun? This... this..."
Sangonomiya Kokomi swallowed, her mind replaying the recent scene, wondering if she had done anything to displease Durandal.
Such a powerful person actually went out personally to handle things. Sangonomiya Kokomi originally had some complaints, but now they were all gone. She only wanted to respectfully say to Durandal, "You've worked hard."
However, with the help of someone as powerful as Durandal, she no longer needed to worry about the Sangonomiya forces who didn't want to make peace.
She only hoped that Durandal wouldn't slaughter those people when she found them. Although they were annoying, they were still important members of Sangonomiya. If they were gone, Sangonomiya would be affected in many ways.
Suddenly having so many fewer things to worry about, Sangonomiya Kokomi felt much more relaxed, and even her "energy" had recovered a bit.
Is this what it feels like to rely on someone powerful? It's really good. She was inexplicably grateful for Durandal's appearance; otherwise, she would still be as busy as before.
