Upon hearing his subordinate's reply, Ayato quickly looked away from the dock: "Do you know what she's doing right now?"
"If I'm not mistaken, it looks like they're forging a sword."
"Forging swords?" Ayato asked, somewhat puzzled. "Shouldn't this be something Toma does?"
However, before Ayato could figure it out, a large group of Inazuma soldiers appeared here.
Perhaps out of fear of disturbing the public, these soldiers did not carry weapons, but the murderous aura emanating from them still made those around them uneasy.
These soldiers... have definitely been on the battlefield.
Besides the one in the castle tower, there is only one other person who can command these soldiers.
A tall woman stepped out from among the soldiers, her sharp and decisive demeanor like a taut bow, drawing attention to Ayato.
"The general wants you to go to the castle tower."
Kujo Sara's words were as crisp as her demeanor, and after speaking, she looked at Ayato like this.
Ayato naturally heard Sara's words about the Thunder General.
—General...Sir.
—Although I can take over that job in a few years, I'm still not sensitive to some things.
That's what she was thinking, but Ayato still had the same gentle smile as usual.
"Please tell the general that I will be there soon."
Kujo Sara nodded and turned to leave like a soldier receiving an order.
Watching the Inazuma soldiers leave in an orderly fashion, Ayato's eyes flickered, and it was unclear what he was thinking.
At this moment, that ordinary-looking person reappeared.
"Master, this General Kujo is a loyal and righteous man. Why don't we tell her the truth?"
The light in Ayato's eyes stopped moving, and he looked at his subordinate in front of him.
"I have always believed that even the most ordinary people have some strengths, just as even the most outstanding people have some weaknesses."
Ayato said, "As for Kujo Sara, there are some things that are not suitable to tell her."
Although the Eye Hunting Order was driven by Yae no Miko, Ayato also secretly provided assistance.
Therefore, Ayato also knew how this universally praised general, after learning the truth, single-handedly stormed into the castle tower to question the lady, only to be easily dealt with by her.
Only a month had passed since that incident, and Ayato didn't believe she would be so impulsive again.
After all, this time, he wasn't just facing that doll...
"Get ready, I'm going to the castle tower."
"Master, would you like me to accompany you?"
"No, you have something more important to do."
With that, Ayato turned to look at his unremarkable subordinate in front of him: "Your work as a personal attendant is over. Go and ask Hyakubei what you were doing."
...
"Captain, I'm leaving the rest to you."
"You brat, I still prefer the title 'Big Sister,' so just call me that from now on."
Beidou crossed his arms and stepped off the deck: "How about this, consider it payment for helping you out?"
Mu Xian, who had just stepped off the Death Star, turned around, paused for a moment, and then said, "May I thank the captain?"
"Hmph, what a losing proposition."
Beidou snorted coldly, but his face still showed that he didn't care: "Alright, while the Rongcai Festival is still going, go and have some more fun."
Mu Xian nodded, then quickly left the pier, squeezed into the bustling island, and looked back again.
The ship on the dock had already lowered its sails, seemingly about to leave port again.
Shifting his gaze from the dock, Mu Xian soon appeared on the island's plaza, which was covered with large trees.
Mu Xian could hear the faint whispers of passersby, who seemed to be discussing the words of the Five Immortals in the square.
However, Mu Xian ignored him and was preparing to cross the square and leave the island.
"Please wait a moment."
A strange female voice came from behind Mu Xian, seemingly calling out to him.
Mu Xian glanced at the sky and, finding that he had some time to spare, stopped walking.
Turning around, I saw a green-haired girl wearing a mask.
"Is there something you need?" Mu Xian asked, as indifferent as ever.
However, the green-haired girl did not answer. The moment Mu Xian turned around, her eyes suddenly widened.
The surprise in his eyes quickly disappeared, and then his expression became complicated.
"Senior brother?"
Hisuki Shinobu's words carried a hint of cautious probing.
The word "senior brother" made Mu Xian frown and look carefully at Jiuqi Ren in front of him.
"We know each other?"
Mu Xian spoke up, saying that many people did call him "senior brother" when he was in Guhua, but the person in front of him was not in his memory of Guhua.
Mu Xian had seen many hair colors, but he could never forget the girl with green hair.
—Unless, it just mysteriously fell into the cherry tree again?
Just as Mu Xian was thinking about these things, Hisaki Shinobu removed his mask in front of Mu Xian.
Beneath the mask was a pretty face, but Mu Xian had never seen such a face before.
Kuki Shinobu, having removed his armor, observed the changes in Mu Xian's expression, completely oblivious to the sudden realization that Mu Xian had come to.
Hisagi Shinobu breathed a sigh of relief, but couldn't hide a hint of disappointment in his heart.
"Sorry, I must have mistaken you for someone else."
With that, Hisaki Shinobu put his mask back on and looked directly at Mu Xian again: "Sir, the reason I stopped you is because I want to ask you some questions."
"Did you send some Mora to our boss?"
Chapter 88 Everyone's Senior Brother and the Only Senior Brother
Hisaki Shinobu couldn't quite describe his current state; whenever his gaze fell on the man in front of him, he would quickly look away.
—Perhaps it's because I really look too much like my senior brother.
Thinking of his senior brother, Hisagi Shinobu's expression turned dejected again.
When he went to Liyue to study, Shinobu learned a lot, but those who travel far always have to bear a lot on their own.
By chance, Shinobu Kyuuki encountered thieves blocking his way, but also ran into the Nobushi-shu of Liyue.
No, how can that be called Nobushige? He's way more handsome than Nobushige!!
A chivalrous knight-errant, that's clearly a chivalrous knight-errant!
Under the fierce sword light, Hisahi Shinobu saw his senior brother for the first time.
—Is this the swordsmanship of Liyue?
Originally, Shinobu Kuji didn't want to learn Liyue's so-called martial arts, but when he saw that sword light, Shinobu Kuji silently added a new item to Liyue's learning plan.
At first, Kuki Shinobu did not call his senior brother "senior brother," but only "benefactor" or "benefactor," because at that time his senior brother had no intention of teaching Kuki Shinobu martial arts.
Later, when his senior brother was finally driven to distraction by Kuki Ren, he told his sect.
Kuki Shinobu entered the Koka sect in high spirits, but left with his head down, and then saw his senior brother standing at the foot of the mountain.
"Didn't you join?"
"No, they said my Eye of God is not suitable for Gu Hua's martial arts."
"Oh, I see... Well, there's no other way. Let me teach you."
"But let me warn you first, I will not betray my sect, so what I will teach you is only the sword techniques I have figured out."
And so, my benefactor became my senior.
He was the senior brother of many people, but Kuki Shinobu only had this one senior brother.
His senior brother was always excessively strict, but Kuki Shinobu learned more than just martial arts from him.
That period of time wasn't exactly pleasant in my memory, but it was the most reassuring time in Hisaki Shinobu's heart.
—But when did that period end?
Kuki Shinobu remembered that the day before he left Liyue, he planned to say goodbye to his senior brother.
My senior brother was still leaning against a rock at the foot of Tianheng Mountain, looking quite happy.
"Did you know? Whether it's swordsmanship, spearmanship, or the mastery of both swords and spear, Gu Hua's three great secret techniques have finally made a breakthrough. Even people without the Divine Eye can master these martial arts."
"I believe that soon, even without the Eye of God, I will be able to master the secret techniques of the Ancient Hua School."
"Guhua may rise to prominence because of this."
"Senior brother..."
"What's wrong? You seem hesitant. Are you not feeling well?"
"Why don't you take a break today? Tomorrow, I can teach you some new things."
After listening to his senior brother's series of words, Hisagi Shinobu ultimately did not say what he wanted to say.
She looked at her senior's blond hair in the sunlight, but her farewell words turned into something else entirely.
"Senior brother, if I'm not mistaken, you're from Mondstadt, aren't you?"
"Senior brother, why do you live in Liyue?"
Even now, Hisagi Shinobu still remembers the smile that gradually faded from his senior's face and the deep, lifeless look in his eyes after he said those words.
