But the meeting between Miko and the Shogun was essential. This was a very important step toward drawing Ei out.
Letting Miko—the symbol of eternal mischief—meet with Her Excellency the Raiden Shogun and win her over would mean the Shogun's eternity would have no enemies left.
Once the Shogun's perception of eternity became blurred in those areas...
The blurred parts would become the key operational position for Her Excellency the Raiden Shogun to recognize that "impartial eternity" is "an impartial eternity that remains relatively stationary while moving forward"!
Although the current Shogun occasionally showed signs of humanity, rationality still dominated the vast majority.
His Excellency the Shura Anyakonsen-shou could not stay in Inazuma forever; he could only be responsible for igniting the spark called humanity in Her Excellency the Raiden Shogun's heart.
The subsequent nurturing would no longer be solely the responsibility of His Excellency the Shura Anyakonsen-shou—it would fall to all the people of Inazuma.
"Your Excellency, this matter is quite important. After all, the Akademiya has relatively scientific and comprehensive plans. If this doesn't work out, it will be quite troublesome."
If something unexpected happened, then His Excellency the Shura Anyakonsen-shou would have to mobilize his super connections.
Send a letter to Ningguang—that girl had sold the Geo Archon cat-dragon plushie as a blockbuster item. Now she was a sudden-wealth merchant in Liyue Harbor who could actually make her voice heard.
And Ningguang had very prudently secured a patent for the Geo Archon cat-dragon plushie. Her status in Liyue had risen dramatically along with it.
All it would take was posting a single sentence on Liyue's message board: "Inazuma's land seems impossible to farm...? Does anyone have any opinions?"
The obsession Liyue people had with farming surpassed even Teyvat's imagination. As long as this post was pinned under Ningguang's name to guarantee traffic...
It probably wouldn't take even a hundred days before farming methods piled up like mountains.
And it would be pure free labor—knowledge that anyone could participate in and obtain.
Though the crowd would be mixed and screening would take time, that was how Liyue was. Under Rex Lapis's protection, they knew exactly where land could be farmed, where it couldn't, and how to turn unfarmable land into fields...
In this regard, they might even be more proficient than the Akademiya.
The main reason the Akademiya's ready-made and fast solutions were more suitable was that Inazuma was still just starting out.
What Inazuma needed most right now was time—no, more accurately, His Excellency the Shura Anyakonsen-shou was compressing time.
Once this job in Inazuma is done, I'm heading back to Liyue! (serious face)
Her Excellency the Shogun also understood that state affairs were not the time to consider personal relationships.
"Do as you say, Shura Anyakonsen-shou. If it's inviting the Guuji Yae, I will go along as well."
His Excellency the Shura Anyakonsen-shou nodded, then did nothing extra.
Every day on duty, the Shura Anyakonsen-shou wore his Shura armor. Aside from Miss Aurora Mamoru's form, Her Excellency the Shogun was also always in full divine attire.
The two were the type to set out the moment they decided.
And so, Her Excellency the Shogun followed behind the Shura Anyakonsen-shou, advancing solely supported by elemental power.
She was even considerate enough to match the speed of a mortal who needed to use the Wind Glider to travel.
"Speaking of which, the Shura Anyakonsen-shou has labored greatly for Inazuma. Is there anything you desire?"
During the journey, Her Excellency the Raiden Shogun casually inquired about the Shura Anyakonsen-shou's wishes in her spare time.
"Mm... Under normal circumstances, I shouldn't have any desires. But recently, there is indeed one thing I would like Your Excellency's help with."
"Just say it."
"It's about the Akademiya's Akasha Terminal devices—they are driven through ley line connections. This is a very convenient communication tool, but it doesn't work well outside Sumeru.
I hope Your Excellency can help me connect a few Akasha Terminals. That way, even if I leave, I can still contact people I meet on my travels through the terminals."
Her Excellency the Shogun pondered the request for a moment before finally answering.
"Very well."
