Honkai Impact 3rd: The Girl Who Chases the Flame

If there were a crack in the ground right now, Kujo Sara would love to crawl into it; she felt that even the way Kamisato Ayato was looking at her was filled with strangeness. (Kamisato Ayato is looking at the floor tiles)

"A general who commands the Heavenly Realm has actually lost to a traitor?"

"I am surprised," said Shinsuke Hiiragi, the head of the clan who was in charge of the investigation.

Although it sounded somewhat ironic, he was actually completely shocked.

"..."

Kujo Sara's face almost fell to the ground.

"Alright. Since that's the case, I don't blame you for neglecting your duties."

After all, the person was caught, but they weren't beaten.

General Raiden wouldn't punish her for this, after all, she knew Kujo Sara's strength.

It's not that she's weak, it's just that her opponent is too strong.

"General, after this incident, I checked the relevant collections of the magistrate, but there was nothing stolen."

Knowing that Kujo Sara was unlikely to speak, Ayato Kamisato spoke up.

"It seems the thief's target was not the antiques. Also, it appears there are witnesses who say the thief visited Narukami Taisha Shrine."

"Corporal, it seems you're using 'it looks' a bit too much."

"General Thunder said coldly."

"It's because your subordinates are incompetent."

Ayato Kamisato obediently bowed his head and apologized.

"Narukami Grand Shrine..."

"Should we summon Yae no Kami to ask him?"

Hiiragi Shinsuke asked.

"To investigate and implement, to understand your position. Is that something you can say?"

Upon hearing this, General Raiden snorted coldly, which startled Shinsuke Hiiragi, who immediately lowered his head.

"It was my subordinate who overstepped his authority."

"I will ask Yae no Kami about the matter of Narukami Taisha. The three of you, go and receive your punishments."

General Thunder said expressionlessly, then added after a moment,

"No need for Kujo Sara."

"General, I..."

"I said no need. Everyone, leave."

"Yes."

……

Outside the castle tower

"I am truly an innocent victim."

Shinsuke Hiiragi had a wry smile on his face after leaving the house.

"If you hadn't said that, it would have been an undeserved disaster."

Ayato Kamisato, however, showed him absolutely no sympathy.

"Sigh, Yae no Kami is different from us after all."

Shinsuke Hiiragi sighed and looked up.

"General Kujo..."

He was halfway through his sentence when he saw the distraught Kujo Sara in front of him, and he swallowed his words back.

"This time it's one person, one stick; nobody's going to escape."

Ayato Kamisato shrugged.

"Head of the Hiiragi family should take good care of himself."

……

Inside the castle tower

"Come out."

"Oh, you've finally decided to come see me?"

Behind the screen on the high platform, a woman with pink hair appeared.

"Son of God."

"General Thunder said."

"I could tell halfway through that it wasn't the doll."

Yae no Miko was both annoyed and amused.

"Why didn't you punish Kujo Sara? If you ask me, you might as well have beaten her up; she might feel better that way."

"These are all minor matters. Divine Child, that person..."

"General Thunder," or rather, "Thunder Movie" said uncertainly.

"Could it be the Descendants? Who knows?"

Yae no Miko shrugged.

“I met that person once; she’s not an evil person. However, her power is rather strong.”

"You mean, just leave it alone?"

Lei asked.

"It can only be left unattended."

Yae no Miko corrected.

"The number of eternal variables has increased, which is not a good thing. I still believe... the Divine Child?"

Halfway through his sentence, Lei looked up and found that Yae no Miko was gone.

In the air, a complaint written with elemental forces remains—

It's so annoying how they keep saying "eternity."

"..."

Lei Yingdian was somewhat taken aback, then shook his head helplessly.

"Seriously, there's nothing I can do about it."

@Mo and Zhongli's journey to Inazuma One

"Um, what exactly happened...?"

Just yesterday, after receiving the materials list, Melutina went to Dihuazhou to purchase the goods, but when she returned...

"You guys... did you make a prototype?"

Melutina looked at the strangely shaped, large object and couldn't help but think it was kind of cute.

"We had a heated argument."

Kavi opened.

"But it came to nothing, so I added all the advantages I thought I had."

"Erhesen said."

"So Ben... I made a prototype."

Liu Yun looked at this strange, large creature.

"I think he should be pretty good at fighting."

"..."

Melutina looked up at the winged creature...

One-Eyed Little Treasure?

“I think this is quite suitable as a mascot for memorial services. Why don’t we sell it in Inazuma? There are often temple fairs and such there…”

Melutina complained.

"There's no problem with the basics... my advanced techniques are involved... it's not impossible."

Liu Yun also thought this thing was a bit strange-looking.

"Senior, you also have sales channels for Inazuma?"

Kavi paused for a moment.

"I guess so, but let's not talk about that now."

Melutina shook her head.

“Let’s discuss the energy issue first, and leave the exterior design to Kavi. The three of us will discuss the specific components, and finally give the design drawings of each part to Kavi so that he can design the outer shell based on the parts.”

"That's true. However, energy is a major problem for such a huge object."

Liu Yun thought for a moment,

"The most ideal energy source should be the eye of God."

"The Eye of God? Liu Yun... Miss."

Kavi retorted,

"The Eye of God is something that people carry with them, like an organ, how could it..."

Why not?
