"Ying, you still don't believe me?"

Since he hadn't received an answer from Ying, Shin looked somewhat helpless.

"Ah? No...it's not like that...let's...go--"

At this moment, Ying looked as if he had just come to his senses, and that was indeed the case.

Although Wendy did say something inexplicable about Zhen before, Ying was very sure that Zhen had died in His arms at that time. So He was seriously recalling some details of the final farewell between Him and Zhen in Kanreya five hundred years ago, so he did not hear what Zhen said to Him just now.

But now that Zhen has said so, He will listen to Zhen's explanation. He really hopes that the truth of the matter is that He made a mistake at the time.

"After so many years, you haven't changed at all." Seeing Ying's dull look, Zhen couldn't help but smile. Then he turned around and began to walk along the foot of the mountain while continuing to say to Ying: "When I saw you in Kanriya, I didn't have much time, but you didn't listen to anything at that time, so I left a little weak will in Mengxiang's heart. As long as one day you can exert all its power, I will be released."

"So... you have already..."

After hearing this, Ying, who was following behind, felt a jolt in his heart. He finally understood, but he couldn't help feeling very disappointed after knowing the truth.

Because from the beginning, he had an expectation in his heart, that is, "Zhen" was still alive, but this expectation was ultimately in vain.

But even so, the present truth is the real truth to Him.

"You're right, I'm indeed dead. Now I'm just a consciousness left behind." Knowing what Ying was going to say, Zhen, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped and turned around with a faint smile, looking at Ying behind him and continued, "But let's not talk about this now. Actually, in the original plan, I didn't meet you in this form. Under normal circumstances, I should be just a purple ball of light that can hardly sense anything in the outside world, let alone I can come out."

"Then why... Could it be that... Wendy and that Mei you mentioned helped you?"

Although he felt very disappointed after learning the truth, Ying still responded to "Truth" very seriously.

He was afraid that the truth would suddenly disappear, so He had to cherish this hard-earned time.

"Yes, when you were fighting with that little girl Wendy, she already knew of my existence. Although she ignored me at first, I don't know how long it was before she suddenly asked who I was, and then we started communicating. In the end, after knowing some of the situation, she thought I was very interesting, so she decided to help me. And Miss Mei, actually, the one standing in front of you now is Miss Mei. I am just borrowing her body temporarily. She is a friend that Wendy called to help me."

He nodded first, then Zhen walked to Ying's side and sorted out the specific situation to him in a very detailed manner.

[Mei, do you want to come out and say hello to Ying? ]

[No need, you guys chat——]

Mei immediately rejected Shin's invitation, as she knew it was inappropriate for her to disturb the two sisters' communication during this period of time.

【All right. 】

Feeling somewhat helpless, Zhen did not continue to force anything.

"So that's it..."

Recalling the scene when Wendy fought with him and some strange words she said when she suddenly appeared at Narukami Taisha Shrine shortly afterwards, Ying finally understood what was going on.

"Kage, I'm sorry to suddenly hand over the entire Inazuma to you. You must have gone through an extremely difficult road during this period, and you must have wanted to cry many times, right?"

As he spoke, Shin's tone and expression began to show some apology, and he stretched out both of his hands and tightly held Ying's hands.

Although He could hardly perceive what was happening in the outside world for five hundred years, He knew that Ying would definitely encounter one difficulty after another after taking over Inazuma. However, there was no way, as everything came too suddenly.

But he was lucky after all, because he met Wendy and Mei.

"No... don't underestimate me..."

Allowing his hand to be tightly held by Zhen, Ying quickly refuted what Zhen said. He didn't want Zhen to feel guilty about it.

"Ying, what you said is inconsistent. But it doesn't matter. You must be very tired after all these years. Come and let me hold you...eh?"

"No... I'm not tired..."

Just when he was about to use the hand that was tightly holding the shadow to hold him in his arms, the shadow broke free just as the real one started to move, and even pulled a short distance away from the real one. This made the real one look a little sad, but it was only on the surface.

『Really』 Really... I'm not a kid...

But for some reason, Ying felt a little shy or uncomfortable with the idea of ​​someone 'really' wanting to hug him.

It has been a long time since He had shown such emotions since those events five hundred years ago.

"It's so sad that the younger sister of the Thunder God refused her sister's hug because she was afraid of being seen by the public and losing her dignity."

Just when Ying was a little afraid to face Zhen's hug, Zhen suddenly said this with some sadness.

film:"..."

"No...I just..."

As he was talking, Ying, who was halfway through his words, really didn't know how to answer "truthfully". After all, even he himself didn't know why it was like this.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense, take me to see the current Inazuma—"

Seeing Ying's embarrassed look, 'Shin' stopped teasing him. Now he planned to have a good time visiting Inazuma today.

"Forehead..."

He looked up at Zhen with some embarrassment. His request made Ying feel troubled.

Ever since the general was created, He has almost always stayed in the Pure Land of One Mind and has no idea how to take Shin to visit Inazuma.

284~The confused Kujo Sara

"Ying, what's wrong? You're not going to say no again, are you? This time, my sister is going to be really sad."

Noticing that Ying didn't say anything and seemed a little guilty, Zhen, not knowing why, came over and stared at him closely.

Logically speaking, this request can be said to be very simple, and Ying would never refuse it, but it seems that this is not the case.

So why is this?

"Eh...Nothing, since you want to see Inazuma now, then follow me--"

Ying felt a little embarrassed being stared at with a questioning look by Shin, so after thinking for a while, he decided to take Shin to visit Inazuma Castle.

Although He had not been out for a long time, He still had some understanding of Inazuma Castle.

"I always feel like you're a little weird, but it's okay, I don't mind, lead the way."

He withdrew his doubtful gaze and began to become expectant. He was very curious about what Inazuma was like five hundred years later.

Just like that, the two of them began to fly towards Inazuma Castle.

-------------------------------------

Inazuma City.

"Is this Inazuma Castle five hundred years from now? Ying, you did a great job!"

Although they had not yet reached Inazuma Castle, just looking at it from afar in mid-air was enough to make Shin feel very surprised.

Compared to the Inazuma Castle of five hundred years ago in his memory, the current Inazuma Castle can be said to have undergone earth-shaking changes, and the most obvious change is the expansion of the city's scale and the difference in architecture.

In fact, if Ying had not told him in advance that their destination was Inazuma Castle, he might not have recognized which city it was.

"This is all thanks to everyone, I just..."

"Don't be so modest, Ying. Next, you should take me around Inazuma City. After so many years, there must be many new things in this city, and everyone's life must have become better."

At this time, Zhen was already a little impatient.

"...I see."

Originally, he wanted to take this opportunity to talk about the National Closure Order and the Eye Hunting Order, but seeing how much anticipation 『真』 looked, Ying gave up the idea.

However, He actually already has a way to deal with these two decrees, which is to cancel them all.

As for how Inazuma will pursue eternity in the future, He will discuss it carefully with Shin and the general.

Soon, the two people with different thoughts landed at the place where Wendy had met the warrior whose Eye of God was confiscated.

"Two...two generals? What...is going on?"

"Am I seeing things? How come there are two generals?"

"Could it be that someone is... pretending to be the general?!"

......

The appearance of the two instantly attracted the attention of everyone present. Without exception, they were all very puzzled as to why two generals appeared here, and some even made various speculations.

It seems like everyone's life has gotten much better...

Looking at the clothes of the people around him and their lively faces, Zhen was sincerely happy.

"General...General?"

At this moment, the voice of Kujo Sara suddenly came from the side.

Originally, she was waiting for the Shogun at the Narugami Taisha Shrine, but she waited and waited but he didn't show up. So she had no choice but to go back to the castle tower of Inazuma Castle to try her luck. Then she saw two Shoguns, which made her completely confused.

What on earth...happened?

"I am not the General, He is——"

Knowing that everyone around was curious about who their general was, Shin pointed at the shadow next to him.

After all, he had already given the position of General of Thunder and Lightning to Ying five hundred years ago, so naturally Ying was the General of Thunder and Lightning.

"Forehead..."

No one expected that Zhen would be like this, which made Ying, who was thinking about how to explain to the people, at a loss for words for a moment, but He still felt it was necessary to let the people of Inazuma know about the existence of Zhen.

"real..."

"Ying, stop talking, you are the general--"

Knowing what Ying was going to say, Shin shook his head slowly with a faint smile on his face.

Although He was once the God of Thunder, that was five hundred years ago. Now the people of Inazuma live and work in peace and contentment under the protection of the Shadow, so there is no doubt that the Shadow is their general.

Real? Shadow?

Are you the General?

What on earth is going on?

Listening to the way the two addressed each other and the content of their conversation, Kujo Sara was completely confused.

Although she had never heard of the name "Shin" and didn't know who "He" was, she knew that the only person who could directly call the general "shadow" was Lord Yae Gongji. She had never heard this from anyone else, so she was very confused and shocked. What shocked her even more was that the content of their conversation was very strange.

What does 'You are the general' mean?

Could it be...

There are two generals?!

No, it's impossible...

How could the general have two...

This is absolutely impossible!

Kujo Sara, who was making all kinds of speculations at this time, had no way to calm himself down because this kind of thing was really too strange.

"Sora!"

"General—"

At this moment, Ying suddenly turned around and called out to Kujo Sara, and Kujo Sara responded almost immediately.

He should be...General...right?

After responding subconsciously, Kujo Sara couldn't help but worry that she had responded to the wrong person. After all, she really couldn't tell which of the two generals was the real one.

"Take us to visit Inazuma, can you do such a thing?"

Under Kujo Sara's gaze, the general gave her this order with a serious face.

"Uh... no problem!"

She didn't expect that the General would ask her to do such a thing. For a moment, Kujo Sara suspected that she had heard it wrong, so she was stunned for a moment, but she quickly reacted.

If Sara is here, there shouldn't be any problem...

If before arriving at Inazuma Castle, Ying still thought that he could take Shin to visit Inazuma Castle, then after arriving at Inazuma Castle, Ying knew that he was wrong. He didn't know where to go at all. He only knew how to get to the tallest castle tower in the city.

There is no way. He hasn't come out for a long, long time, and the changes in Inazuma City can be said to be earth-shaking.

But fortunately, Sara came.

285~You start to make fun of me, do you really think I won't fight back?

"'Shin', just tell Sara where you're going. She's very familiar with Inazuma Castle."

After letting Sara deal with the onlookers, Ying turned around and looked at Shin and asked.

Although He now knows almost nothing about the layout of Inazuma Castle, it is different for Sara. As a Tengu who was adopted by Tenryo Hokyo since childhood, she must be familiar with every place in Inazuma Castle.
