This heroine is so despicable

Ah... this... uh...

Xing quickly used his brain and started making up a story:

"That... is actually a small boat I stole from a Liyue merchant..."

"Liyue merchant?"

Kujo Sara frowned again.

After the isolation order was issued, Inazuma theoretically banned all foreign ships from entering the port, but... in reality, she also knew that Tenryo Bugyo must still have control over certain foreign trade channels.

There is no other way. There are many products or technologies that Inazuma does not produce but is in urgent need of, so it can only rely on imports. For example, the core of the Myokage furnace of Tadashi Sand was built with the imported Fontaine technology.

"Yes, it's a really big ship! I heard it's the Death Star of Liyue's famous Southern Cross Fleet!"

Xing said this seriously, pretending to be reminiscing about the slip of the tongue.

"I knew that if I continued to stay on the outlying island, the Kanjo Bugyo would definitely not let me and my father go, so... I stole one of their small boats and escaped. But... when we were about to reach the shore, I wanted to slow down the boat, but something went wrong. Maybe I pressed the wrong switch, and the boat caught fire for no apparent reason..."

"I see……"

Kujo Sara nodded, but was somewhat puzzled:

"But... why don't you leave Inazuma with those merchants? The lockdown only prohibits foreigners from entering the country, but it does not restrict them from leaving... As long as you leave Inazuma, the problem will actually be solved, right?"

…ah?

Xing was slightly stunned.

[Pfft…Hahaha! Hahahahaha! Sorry! That’s just too funny—Yeah, why? Use your little brain and think about it~]

Seeing a hint of doubt flash across Sara's face, Xing's brain immediately worked rapidly, but almost in the next moment, she thought of the answer.

After quickly preparing herself for a while, Xing's expression immediately flashed with a hint of reluctance and depression. She lowered her head slightly:

"Because...if...if I leave like this, I'm afraid I'll never be able to come back, but...I once made an appointment with someone - we will definitely meet again..."

Sara, who originally had a slight doubt, immediately understood - so that's it... love?

No wonder a girl had the courage to steal a boat and run away alone...

Sara had already decided to devote her life to General Thunder, but that didn't mean she couldn't understand people's yearning for and loyalty to love.

"The person you made the appointment with... is he a rebel in Coral Palace?"

"We are not rebels!"

Xing pretended to be a little angry, but didn't dare to speak loudly.

"You... you are the shogun of the shogunate, you have no idea about the exploitation and oppression of Umijima by the Inazuma people. Their situation is just like us foreigners on the outlying islands, suffering unfair treatment everywhere!"

"But this is not a reason for them to rebel."

Sara tried to correct Xing's thoughts.

"I know that the residents of Haigi Island and the Eye Hunting Order have indeed brought suffering to the people, but... now you have also seen that war will only cause more people to suffer misfortune. This is definitely not the right way. If you are dissatisfied, you should..."

"--it's useless."

Xing shouted loudly.

"You... think I haven't tried? You think the merchants on the outlying islands haven't tried? If reporting, complaining and protesting were useful... I wouldn't have to escape at all - the officials of Inazuma wouldn't care about the situation of us... of us 'non-citizens'!"

The more Xing spoke, the more excited she became, and the more she immersed herself in the role. She stood up and looked at Sara with a helpless, bewildered and resolute attitude.

"Sister Sara, I... we don't have any grudge against Lady Narukami - even if she issued the Eye Hunting Order, it is only a small number of God's Eye holders after all. What really makes us desperate and angry... are those corrupt officials and samurai of Inazuma who deceive their superiors and subordinates!"

"You know, Sister Sara... In the remote islands, the entry fee of 300 Mora will be charged to foreigners like us up to 1 million Mora! Even in remote islands, this is the case... I think, this situation is common in the whole of Inazuma, right?"

Xing clenched his fists.

"Sister Sha Luo... you must have seen General Raiden. Is it because she only has eyes for the people of Ming Shen... that's why she is indifferent to our plight? Is it because... we are not her true people?"

"...No, the general..."

Kujo Sara opened her mouth, trying to refute Xing's words, but she didn't know what to say...

She firmly believed that if someone with bad intentions could master the power of the Eye of God, the foundation of Inazuma would be shaken, and the eternity that the general was pursuing would also be like that... So the Eye Hunting Order was in line with justice...

But... just as Xing said, she actually knew that the Eye Hunting Order was just a fuse - the Closure Order and more unfair treatments in secret were the real reasons why Kaigi Island rose up in resistance.

Finally, after a moment of silence, Kujo Sara turned this confusion into a helpless sigh.

She stood up:

"I... don't expect everyone to understand the general's ambition, but I have already made up my mind - to assist the general in achieving eternity is my only wish in this life... You... should have a good rest tonight..."

Seeing Kujo Sara leave with worry, Xing also breathed a sigh of relief.

Phew~ I finally managed to fool you!

How about it, is my acting good enough?

[Amazing, amazing! Star Boss is so fun! ]

Volume 172: The End of the Immortal Body, the World and the Human World: Sara: I have been betrayed!

That night, while Xing was sleeping soundly, Kujo Sara was tossing and turning.

One of the few times she fell into an emotion called confusion.

As a member of the Tengu clan, she lived in a peaceful mountain forest since she was young. During a battle, she was knocked off a cliff, her wings were damaged and unable to open. When she was about to fall to the ground in despair, she obtained the Eye of God.

A passing Inazuma man found the unconscious little girl, brought her back to the city and reported her to Tenryo Bugyo. The head of the Kujo family, Kujo Takayuki, regarded her as the destiny bestowed by God on her as Tenryo Bugyo, so he named her Sara.

From then on, Kujo Sara obtained her name in this life and was trained by the head of the Kujo family to be an almighty warrior, who expected her to obey the general and fight for Inazuma.

It was precisely because she possessed the Eye of God that Sara knew better than anyone that the reason she was able to fall from a high mountain without any injury was because God saw her at that moment.

That one glance gave her strength for a lifetime. Everything she enjoys now can be said to be the general's favor.

For this reason, fighting for the general was Sara's lifelong pursuit and true desire.

The head of the Kujo family had repeatedly warned her that she would be a knife in the general's hand, and would always be the sharpest sword that stabbed the enemy. This was loyalty and also the way of the samurai.

God would not be wrong, and she only needed to be her blade - she firmly believed this and was never confused, because the direction of the general was her direction...

But...what about those ordinary people who have never been noticed by the general?

Inazuma is becoming unstable, and anyone can see this clearly, but the Third Magistrate is not fulfilling his duties...

What Xing said about the three hundred maras turning into one million maras frightened Sara - why did Inazuma become like this?

Although it wasn't as exaggerated as Xing said - such things were happening all over Inazuma, but... Kujo also knew that this statement was not completely wrong.

In this situation... General... did she see it clearly?

As soon as this thought came to his mind, Sara felt guilty for having such a disrespectful thought.

God can never make mistakes, and the General's original intention must be good, so... what went wrong?

Have I... failed to live up to the power bestowed upon me by the General? If so... what should I do?

Because of these confusion and bewilderment, Sara could no longer feel sleepy.

She put on her clothes, took her bow and arrow, and went to the training ground in the dark to practice archery. Only then did her troubled mood calm down a little - it was also thanks to the fact that she was a member of the Tengu clan and could see in the dark.

When she returned to her room, Sha Luo went to look at Xing on purpose. Through the half-open window, she saw Xing sleeping soundly and even heard her whispering in her sleep:

"Rosaline...must...come to see me..."

Rosalyn...is she the one she must meet?

Sara sighed slightly.

He must be a very important person in her life, right? Maybe he means as much to her as the general does to her... That's why she has the courage to escape at such great risk...

Sara felt that knowing the girl in front of her seemed to make her jump out of her original perspective and consider some issues that she had not thought deeply about before from a broader perspective...

Maybe...she should really do something within her ability.

"Ahhh~ I slept so comfortably!"

The next morning, Xing got up yawning to the sound of horn outside the house.

The conditions in the military camp were limited, but Sister Sha Luo still seemed to take care of Xing. She prepared a set of toiletries for her and even put a breakfast on the table.

After enjoying the food, Xing walked out of the room and asked a curious soldier where Sara was. He learned that she was in the largest house.

The Inazuma soldiers along the way did not stop her. At most, they just looked at her a few more times. They must have heard that Lord Sara had rescued a foreign girl from the beach yesterday.

As soon as she entered the house, she saw Sha Luo talking to a few soldiers. When he saw her coming, he nodded to the soldiers around him, then walked out of the house and looked at her:

"You've come just in time. Prepare to return to Inazuma Castle with me. The ship that will pick me up has arrived. We only have a little more military handover to complete before we can set off."

"Uh……"

Xing swallowed her saliva. She didn't dare to go back. After all, if the shogunate was more efficient, they might have hung up wanted posters all over the place.

And Sara seemed to see her concerns - unexpectedly, she walked up to Xing and gently touched her head - the two were originally of similar height, but because of Sara's clogs, she was even slightly taller than Xing.

"Don't worry, I won't let anyone hurt you, and...I figured out a lot of things last night."

"Hey?"

Looking at Xing who looked like she didn't understand what she was talking about, Sha Luo smiled for the first time:

"I... have decided. As a follower of the General, I will never turn a blind eye to injustice. The next time I meet with the General, I will tell him the truth about everything that has happened to Inazuma recently."

“Is… is that so?!”

Xing quickly pretended to be surprised, then lowered her head:

"Then... I'm also very sorry, Sister Sha Luo. I said a lot of things to you that I shouldn't have said before."

"It doesn't matter. Rather...some of your words reminded me of what true justice is."

"That……"

Finally, Xing seemed to have mustered up the courage and nodded to Sara:

"Sister Sha Luo, I'll go pack my things now!"

"it is good."

Seeing Xing running back to the house happily, Sha Luo couldn't help but raise a smile at the corner of his mouth.

But after a while, Sara saw Kujo Masahiro rushing out of the house with a piece of paper in his hand, his face changed drastically:

"Sarah! Where's the girl you brought back yesterday!?"

"what happened?"

"Something happened!"

Kujo Masahiro handed the paper in his hand to the confused Sara. The latter took it and saw that it was a wanted warrant issued by Tenryo Bugyo, and the portrait on it looked very familiar.

"This is……?"

"It's the latest wanted warrant that was just delivered from Narukami Island! It came with the ship that picked you up! Look below!"

Sara also realized that something seemed amiss - this was a wanted warrant of the highest level. If it was just a foreign girl escaping from an outlying island, there wouldn't be such a big reaction.
