Miko felt that it had indeed been quite some time since she last saw this doll.
The main reason was that she wanted to see Ei, while the doll was extremely dissatisfied with her behavior.
Since the doll was dissatisfied with her, it was naturally difficult for her to greet this doll with a smiling face.
In this matter, although she understood the doll's actions, understanding never meant acceptance.
Wrong behavior was wrong behavior—no matter the reason, the consequences were right there, and that was what she had done.
Miko looked at this doll again and felt that the doll had indeed undergone some changes.
At the very least, the dissatisfaction in her eyes was now much more vivid than before.
So she smiled sweetly and asked Her Excellency the Raiden Shogun.
"Your Excellency, it's been a long time... You must have important business to see me?"
The sly fox fawned ingratiatingly, but Her Excellency the Shogun did not appreciate it. She simply maintained a serious expression and took out an official document.
"This afternoon there is a meeting with the Sumeru Akademiya. You will attend in my place."
Yae Miko kept her fox-like smile on the surface.
"Then leave it to me, Your Excellency."
His Excellency the Shura Anyakonsen-shou watched the seemingly harmonious atmosphere between Yae Miko and the Raiden Shogun from the side and felt the problem was quite serious.
Don't be fooled by Miko's current fox smile—despite her high-and-mighty fox pride, Her Excellency's serious attitude had probably already made Miko quite unhappy inside.
I've already smiled so sweetly at you, yet you're still so cold to me—I think we should just stop being friends.
Hiss... It seemed the path to friendship between Her Excellency the Raiden Shogun and Miko was truly going to be very long...
This was resentment accumulated over five hundred years...
When the two were together, it only deepened the conflict.
Mm... Perhaps he really should consider arranging a fake-identity interaction between Miko and Her Excellency the Raiden Shogun as well?
His Excellency the Shura Anyakonsen-shou already had a plan in mind.
So he intervened in this conflict.
"In that case, Lady Guuji, please come with me to the meeting first."
Since they would only hurt each other, it was better not to bring them together for now.
"Okay~"
Unable to bear Her Excellency the Raiden Shogun's cold attitude any longer, Lady Yae naturally hurried over to the little guy's side.
Although this doll had gained a bit of warmth, it wasn't much.
For now, the little guy was still more fun.
Her Excellency the Raiden Shogun also knew Yae Miko's bad habit of teasing humans and issued an advance warning to Lady Yae.
"The Shura Anyakonsen-shou is a pillar of Inazuma's 'eternity.' You had better put away those little thoughts of yours toward him, or I will cut you down with one strike."
Faced with Her Excellency's warning, Miko still smiled sweetly.
"Your Excellency, don't say that~ I just have a little personal hobby, that's all~
Besides, how could a frail little fox like me possibly tease His Excellency the Shura Anyakonsen-shou, the one who rebuilt Inazuma?"
At this moment, Miko was smiling quite happily, but His Excellency the Shura Anyakonsen-shou only felt the problem had escalated dramatically.
Now Her Excellency's warning carried hostility, which had clearly offended Lady Yae—who had thought she was being friendly. He felt like this sly fox Yae Miko was about to pull off something big.
And the result was exactly as His Excellency the Shura Anyakonsen-shou had analyzed: Miko directly reached out and placed her hand on His Excellency's chest...
The gesture looked extremely alluring, paired with that utterly bewitching fox smile...
Cat Kirara, who was being held in the old man's arms, stared in stunned amazement.
This... this was a fox spirit possessing the noble Shiratsuki bloodline? So impressive...
