In Genshin Impact, I'm really not Muzan.

Not only that, he didn't use any elemental attacks, but instead used a very strange fist technique, which allowed him to withstand the Thunder General wielding a katana with just his fists.

At first, Ayato Kamisato didn't believe in such a thing. After all, how could a fist possibly withstand a blade? It seemed impossible.

But now he understood that the boxing technique did not actually use the fist to attack, but rather used the air currents generated by the punch to attack the enemy.

Because the shockwave is invisible to the naked eye, this type of attack often catches the opponent off guard.

In this way, Ayato Kamisato could believe that Yui Suzumiya was the mysterious person. However, since he was the one who initiated the duel, he couldn't just end it after only one round, could he?

She swung the blade forward, unleashing a water elemental sword aura, but Suzumiya Yu easily dodged it with a sidestep.

The same attack method was then used again, but the result remained the same.

Suzumiya Yu's reaction was so fast that even when using a feint attack, he could dodge it.

Chapter 75 Divergent Views on Deities

From beginning to end, Ryoumi never launched an attack on him, but he also never encountered Ryoumi even once.

This is what makes the compass so peculiar; as long as Ayato Kamisato doesn't discover this characteristic, he will never be able to hit himself.

"Wait! I'm not fighting anymore!" After yet another failed attempt, Ayato Kamisato chose to surrender, looking completely unlike the head of the Kamisato family.

I heard that Ayato Kamisato seems to have a good relationship with Isto Arataki. To be able to become good friends with that goofball, Ayato Kamisato is probably like Ayaka Kamisato, just appearing serious on the surface.

Ayato Kamisato has surrendered, and Yuu Suzumiya has removed the talisman. Now, he should no longer doubt himself.

......

Back at the mansion, the three gathered together to discuss matters.

"Although the Eye Hunting Order was the General's idea, that policy has brought too much suffering to the people of Inazuma. Therefore, although Ayaka and I are the heads of the company, we stand on the side of opposing the Eye Hunting Order."

A cup of hot tea was placed in front of Ayato Kamisato, as were Yui Suzumiya and Ayaka Kamisato.

The main topic of discussion is how to persuade General Raiden to abolish the Eye Hunting Order.

Previously, Ayato Kamisato had focused on handling family affairs and searching for Ayaka Kamisato. Now that everything was resolved, he naturally had more to consider.

After all, he also possesses the Eye of God, so the Eye Hunting Order would certainly not be beneficial to him.

If the Eye of God is confiscated by the Heavenly Regime, the brother and sister, having lost their will, will no longer be able to continue ruling the Kamisato family.

The family business passed down from their fathers was destroyed in their own hands, a scene they least wanted to see.

"So you're planning to invite me to help you?" Suzumiya Yu saw through Kamisato Ayato's thoughts.

"That's true, but before that, I'd like to ask for your opinion on the Eye Hunting Order."

"My view is: it must disappear."

Hearing Suzumiya Yu say those words without hesitation, Ayato Kamisato was immediately relieved.

He had been worried that Ryoumi Yu wouldn't help him, but now it seemed that his worries were completely unnecessary.

"Because the Kujo family's collusion with the Fools has been exposed, the Tenryo Magistrate's recent actions to confiscate the Eyes of God have slowed down. However, this is not enough. Only when the Shogun personally witnesses the harm caused by the Eye Hunt Order can we make it happen."

The Eye Hunt Order was, after all, the will of the Thunder General. Even if all her subjects opposed it, she, as a god, would not easily change her mind.

“What you’re saying is all nonsense,” Suzumiya Yuu retorted directly to Kamisato Ayato’s opinion.

"The reason why General Raiden issued the Eye Hunting Order is that, in her view, this would bring Inazuma closer to eternity, even if it meant sacrificing some people."

Suzumiya Yui said such disrespectful words to his face, so Kamisato Ayato was naturally displeased: "Please don't say such things. The Shogun would not disregard the lives and safety of her people for the sake of pursuing her own desires."

Although they were on the opposite side of Raiden General in their views on the Eye Hunt Order, Ayato Kamisato and the others were still the most loyal subjects to Raiden General, and they would not choose to betray her because of this.

"What a joke! You don't really think General Raiden doesn't know what's been happening to Inazuma lately, do you? Of course she knows, and she knows very well, but do you know why she's just sitting idly by? It's because, in her view, these things aren't enough to threaten eternity."

Suzumiya Yu said with a cold laugh, which immediately made the atmosphere extremely tense.

"Please stop talking." Ayato Kamisato suppressed his anger and didn't explode. If it weren't for the fact that Yui Suzumiya was Ayaka Kamisato's savior, he probably would have already asked her to leave.

"You don't think that's all, do you? Should I tell you about General Thunder's other inner thoughts?"

"The Eye Hunt Order itself does not threaten people's lives. It is those who rise up to resist for their desires who lose their lives. Therefore, in her eyes, your acts of resistance are simply foolish."

"If she were to make a move, she would definitely only target those of you who oppose the Eye Hunting Order."

“You might think I’m talking nonsense, but I still have to tell you, don’t try to understand the thoughts of gods. Their goals are different from those of us mortals.”

After saying that, without waiting for Ayato Kamisato to personally give the order to leave, Yuu Suzumiya got up and left.

After he left, only the Kamisato siblings remained in the room.

"Um...brother...are you alright?" Seeing that Ayato Kamisato was silent, Ayaka Kamisato stepped forward and asked.

She never expected that Suzumiya Yu would say such things. Not to mention Ayato Kamisato, even she herself was a little angry after hearing it.

In Inazuma, who would dare to utter such rebellious words? Even the Sangokiya, who has been at odds with the shogunate since ancient times, would not have gone so far.

If Kujo Sara were there, she probably would have started fighting with Suzumiya Yu.

"Ayaka," Ayaka Kamisato finally said with a long sigh after a long while, "Do you know what's making me angrier right now?"

"I...I don't know."

"What angers me the most is that I actually think what he said makes a lot of sense."

"Huh?"

Ayaka Kamisato was surprised that her brother would say such a thing. Because her mind was still a bit confused, she didn't carefully analyze what Yui Suzumiya had just said.

"Yes, so many things have happened in Inazuma recently, so many people have died, and even the Kujo family, the head of the Tenryo Magistrate, has betrayed the Shogunate. How could the Shogun not know?"

"Brother, do you mean...?"

"Our first impression of the General was that she was a ruthless executor. It's not impossible that she would sacrifice the lives of some people in pursuit of eternity."

From the very beginning, Ayato Kamisato's thinking was wrong. He always viewed the actions of the gods from the perspective of a mortal, which was an extremely foolish act. It was Suzumiya Yui's words that woke him up.

General Raiden was a militant, and Inazuma delegated most of his affairs to the Third Magistrate, only entrusting them to General Raiden himself when there were particularly important matters.

Thinking about it this way, what Suzumiya Yu said wasn't wrong. In pursuit of eternity, it doesn't matter if some of the people's lives are sacrificed.

It was precisely because of these thoughts that Ayato Shinri felt angry, not only cursing herself for her disobedience, but also feeling disappointed in the Thunder General's actions.

Just as the Mondstadt people will always worship Barbatos, the Liyue people will always worship the Geo Archon, and the Inazuma people will always worship the Thunder General.

In their view, everything General Raiden did would bring blessings to Inazuma. And that's why, when their faith crumbled, no one could easily accept the reality.

Like Barbara, if she knew that Barbatos was just Wendy who freeloaded all day and never did anything productive, she would probably faint on the spot and never recover.

Chapter 76 Ayaka Wants Suzumiya Yui to Take Responsibility

"Ayaka." Ayato suddenly looked up, gazing at his younger sister. "Tell me, do you like him?"

"Eh? Why...why are you asking such a question?" Ayaka Kamisato's face immediately turned bright red, and she stammered as she spoke, her shy appearance irresistible.

"Alright, no need to say anything, I already know the answer." Seeing his sister's reaction, Ayato Kamisato understood without even having to guess.

"By the way, have you ever confessed your feelings to him?" The tone of his voice had changed drastically. Ayato Kamisato was no longer serious; instead, he had a gossipy expression as if he wanted to know his sister's secret.

"Yes, I've already spoken to him."

"What was his reply?"

"He...agreed."

"I see."

The air suddenly became quiet, and the silence lasted for about two minutes.

“Whether in terms of strength or ability, I am inferior to him. Therefore, if possible, I hope you can persuade him to marry into the Kamisato family. This would be of great help to us.” Kamisato Ayato’s expression was as if he were describing something perfectly ordinary.

In contrast, Ayaka Kamisato was unable to remain calm.

“Brother, I... he and I haven’t progressed to that point yet.”

"Really? How far have things progressed in your relationship?"

Ayaka Kamisato now truly regretted saying that; how was she supposed to respond?

To say that I've already slept with him would be utterly shameful.

"No need to say anything, I already see through it." Ayaka Kamisato always wore her heart on her sleeve, so Ayato Kamisato once again saw right through her.

"Isn't this progressing pretty fast? It's only been a few months and we've already reached this point. Wait, does he not want to take responsibility for you?"

Ayato Kamisato asked a very tricky question, one that even Ayaka Kamisato herself hadn't considered.

Although they were already married, Ryouji Yu never said anything about taking responsibility for her or marrying her.

Could it be... that Suzumiya Yu really doesn't want to take responsibility for her?

No, no, no, he's definitely not that kind of person.

“如果他真敢对你不负责的话，我一定会揍到他答应入赘神里家。”

"But...brother, you can't beat him."

"Haha... Can you please stop saying such hurtful things? I'm your own brother, you know."

The air became quiet once again.

"Go, go and bring him back. If we want to abolish the Eye Hunting Order, we definitely can't do it without his help."

"I see."

......

Ayaka Kamisato went to find Yuu Suzumiya. She thought the other party would return to the hiding place, but she didn't expect to see Yuu Suzumiya under a tree not far away as soon as she stepped out of the courtyard.

"You? You haven't left at all?" Ayaka Kamisato was surprised that the other party had stayed.

"He should have already agreed with what I said, right?" Without answering Ayaka Kamisato's question, Yui Suzumiya simply said this.

"Yes, my brother thinks what you said makes a lot of sense, so he wants you to go back and continue to discuss countermeasures to abolish the Eye Hunting Order."

"Really? That's exactly what I thought."

Ayato Kamisato is not someone who is blinded by anger. To be able to hold onto the position of head of the Kamisato family, he must be someone who understands the big picture.

That's why Suzumiya Yu said those things before, in order to make him see the truth. She was just trying to convince Raiden General that the Eye Hunt Order would never end.
