But as he said, they are his family. How could he just sit idly by and do nothing about his family?

'I believe everyone now has a better understanding of the lives of the Oni race.'

I also gained a new understanding of the Araki school.

'However, according to this system, the true leader of the Araki Faction is actually their deputy, Hisaki Shinobu!'

'Next, let's delve into the story of Shinobu Hisaki!'

Preparing to play "The Legend of the Seed Sect Part 1: The Origin of the Iwa Sect's Ara-taki Faction"

Every time the cherry blossoms bloom, I think of someone I used to like very much.

[Kuki Shinobu: Huh??? This subtitle is making me sweat profusely]

[Arataki Ichito: Good, good, this is a good opportunity for everyone to learn more about Shinobu]

Chapter 14 The Thunder Clan's Prodigy Falls into Misfortune at Yan Sect

'The light that Ah Ren gave me will illuminate the endless darkness on the long road ahead.'

—Araki Ichito, Head of the Iwa Sect

[Kuki Shinobu: This is definitely a fan-made video. The boss's level is so high that he would never say such a thing.]

[Xingqiu: By the way, does Inazuma also have a sect setting?]

[Gan Yu: Why isn't the leader of the Rock Sect an Emperor?]

A somber soundtrack begins, and the scene slowly unfolds.

Inazuma Castle is currently in the warm spring season with flowers in full bloom.

Araki Ichito stood under the cherry blossom tree, lost in thought.

The storyteller's voice rang out (the narration in this video is from the perspective of Arataki Ichito).

I still remember that day clearly; I was very young then.

'The shadow, carried by the cold wind bearing the scent of cherry blossoms, drifted down the mountain, bringing me her silhouette for the first time.'

'Kuki Shinobu, she was originally the most revered shrine maiden of Narukami Taisha, the sacred site of the Inatsume Raizo clan.'

The image shows Shinobu Hisaki, a shrine maiden, working at Narukami Shrine, and is shown in close-up.

[Kuki Shinobu: Ahhh, don't play this!]

[Arataki Ichito: Shinobu, so this is what you look like without your mask. Wait, why are you working for that stinky fox?]

[Yae no Miko: Oh dear, now I can't hide it anymore, Shinobu]

[Ying: She's so beautiful!]

Paimon: Can't you be serious for once?

[Xingqiu: The Inazuma Raizo clan is starting to resemble a novel; I bet the protagonist is about to encounter a setback.]

She is hailed as the most capable successor to General Raiden's mantle.

'However, because he praised Princess Fischl of Mondstadt at Narukami Shrine, he sarcastically remarked that the new Electro-type five-star was merely a figurehead.'

'This angered Lord Yae no Kami.'

'The master of Narukami Taisha—Yae no Miko—borrowed the Thunder God's punishment, sending countless bolts piercing his heart, intending to cripple his martial arts and take his life.'

That day, thunder roared through the sky, and the people of Inazuma were filled with fear!

[Xingqiu: I was right, wasn't I? A genius has fallen, a classic opening.]

[Araki Ichito: You filthy fox, how vicious you are!]

[Yae no Miko: What, are you going to avenge your second-in-command? I'm at Narukami Shrine right now.]

[Kuki Shinobu: Boss, just treat this like a light novel. Don't tease Master Kuji.]

[Fischl: It seems my formidable reputation has reached Inatsuma.]

"And I happened to rescue the unconscious Kuki Shinobu at the foot of Shadow Mountain. Her body was covered in wounds, and her pale purple eyes were slightly open. Although she was covered in injuries, she still revealed a tenacious will."

"At that moment, something deeply touched my heart, a feeling I've never experienced again in my life."

'I was astonished to discover that even under divine might, she still possessed a sliver of life force, which she could not dissipate no matter what she did; it faintly revealed the power of her shattered destiny star.'

The scene shows Shinobu's Constellation, Sixth Constellation, which allows her to sever her weakness and survive a fatal blow.

Subsequently, the Fate Constellation shattered.

I brought her back to my Geo-elemental sect—the Ara-Taki Sect.

"They call themselves a sect, but in reality, they don't even have decent accommodations. They're often driven around, enduring wind and rain."

'The Geo element, lacking any decent reactions and with outdated mechanics, is often called the "orphan Geo element," living a very lowly existence and becoming a laughingstock among the major elemental sects.'

'Desperate and financially strapped, they couldn't even afford to see a doctor.'

'I had no choice but to send Goro to beg the aquatic saintess Xin Hai of Haizhi Island, hoping that she would remember our past relationship and bestow upon him some miraculous medicine.'

'I also guarded her day and night, exhausting the power of my years of training to protect Kuki Shinobu from the erosion of the residual lightning energy.'

Finally, they pulled her back from the brink of death.

[Ying: Touko-san, even though your Ara-ryuka faction is in a terrible state, I can't help but laugh.]

[Paimon: The main point is that he's using such a serious tone to state such a tragic fact.]

[Kujo Sara: The storyteller really understands the Ara-taki school; it's very realistic.]

[Zhongli: So this is how people from another world view the Geo element]

[Mona: How amazing, people from another world also possess the power to see through fate.]

[Goro: Am I also a member of the Iwamune Araki-ha?]

[Coral Palace Heart Sea: It seems the storyteller categorized the attributes of the Eye of God by race.]

[Tartaria: Then I must be a genius among the aquatic tribes!]

Bennett: Woohoo! I'm the Fire Clan's great adventurer!

Zhongli: Guest Elder of the Rock Clan, only nominally in office (drinking tea)

[Hu Tao: If you can, please work hard too!]

[Wendy: A bard from the Windkin, who drinks and sings every day]

[Barbara: A drunken poet who does nothing productive!]

[Xingqiu: Didn't you guys notice the video title? Obviously, the truly powerful sect is the Seed Sect.]

[Naxi Da: ...]

The scene changes.

Ah Ren has recovered her health.

'Shinobu arrives at the impoverished and oppressed Iwamura Arataki sect, where this once noble shrine maiden suffers greatly.'

'Due to the hidden injury from the heavenly lightning, not only was her cultivation greatly reduced, but every time she used her elemental power, she would lose health.' (Activating E reduces health)

'But Shinobu's strength and wisdom quickly made her the backbone of our Iwa-myouji Araki faction.'

'As a sinner of the Thunder Clan, the people of Inatsume shun her like the plague, but she seems completely unconcerned.'

"Whenever I, young and impetuous, and the disciples of my sect offended powerful figures and were imprisoned and harassed by Kujo Sara, the Tengu general of the Thunder Clan, it was always Shinobu who single-handedly rescued us."

[Kujo Sara: Idiot, that wasn't youthful recklessness, that was breaking the law, understand?]

[Ying: You've picked up a babysitter!]

[Hiruzen Kyuuki: Traveler, you understand me]

[Araki Ichito: Hahaha, Shinobu is indeed very strong, but I, as the boss, am still stronger.]

'Although A-Rin arrived at the Ara-Taki Sect late, she expanded the sect's business scope to various industries.'

'Whenever I lost my job in the Abyss, she was the one who helped me contact the magistrate and found me a logging job, accompanying me as I cut down trees in the forest of the Guardian Forest to make a living.'

(Arataki Kazuto's talent: 25% chance to obtain extra wood when chopping down trees)

The scene depicts a diligent man chopping down trees with a large stick, working from day to night.

'Those days, though Iwamune still suffered greatly at the hands of the Inazuma Raizo clan, were the happiest time of my life.'

'Perhaps it was fate, Ah Ren was like a campfire on the snowy plains, dispelling the endless cold nights that lay ahead for me.'

'However, I knew very well that her extraordinary talent meant she was destined not to stay here long.'

'Ashino originally intended to train in the Way of Life and the Way of Defense with the members of the Iwamune sect.'

But the Rock Clan's sage, Abedo, said: "This woman's destiny is extraordinary; a faint, verdant light flickers within her fate, subtly possessing the power to awe the world."

The image depicts a grass deity holding a grass-themed symbol.

[Xingqiu: The seed gate has appeared; it turns out to be the grass element.]

[Nil: Is that Lord Little Lucky Grass?]

[Nashida: It shouldn't be Onil, that's the previous Great Tree King]

[Furina: This other world is so interesting! I can even find images of deceased gods.]

[Abeldo: I even have a role in this!]

[Thunderous Movie: Could it be that she's going to give up the Thunder-type Divine Eye and switch to Grass-type training?]

[Yae no Miko: Someone's engrossed in watching, what's going on?]

[Ayato Kamisato: If the Arataki Faction wants to do logging work, the magistrate can help, but one day on, three days off is not enough; it has to be at least five days on, two days off.]

[Araki Ichito: No way, no way! If I work five days straight, how am I supposed to have time for insect fighting and card games?]

The style of the video suddenly changes.

It's no longer the comedic daily life of the Araki school, but has entered a fierce battlefield.

The Inazuma soldiers are fighting a large number of Beast Realm Hounds (Bleeding Dogs) that have rushed out of the void, and are suffering heavy casualties.

The ground was covered with weapons, armor, and corpses.
