"Seeing your attitude and determination, I have no more worries."
It's unclear whether he was relieved that the two were truly in love, or relieved that "it's great that my rival is love-struck," leaving him with no more worries.
Love-struck, huh? Haha, that's unbeatable.
I was worried that your two families might have ulterior motives for this marriage alliance, but now I don't have to worry anymore. What motives could someone so love-struck have?
They have very few tricks up their sleeves, and they've put all their wits into the other person.
Still think this is just a little trick by Hiiragi Chisato? What? Do you think this is a scene from a movie called "Hiragi Chisato Wants Me to Confess".
Shinnojo was also 'gratified,' feeling that Kamaji truly loved the young lady, which was wonderful, but he felt a little like he didn't want to live anymore...
It's okay to not want to live anymore, but please don't actually die.
I'll have to help out on my wedding day.
Another heartbroken person has been added to this world.
It's supposed to be Ayato Kamisato's story, but behind the story, Shinnojo's shadow is everywhere. Is this what it means to be a loser?
After the traveler and his companions left the Kujou family, Ayato Kamisato and the traveler said:
"Kujou Kamaji is completely immersed in happiness. Traveler, how are you feeling?"
The traveler, being an adventurer, was also very perceptive and naturally noticed the unusual nature of the situation.
In fact, the anomaly of this matter was not difficult to discover, but Kujo Kamaji and Hiiragi Senri themselves were not particularly averse to it, so they did not intend to investigate it further.
It can only be said that the person who played the trick behind the scenes was indeed a bit cunning; at least he knew how to use something that the parties involved also supported as a springboard.
See, isn't this exactly what they've been longing for?
They immediately began to enjoy it, and couldn't help but hum softly.
In Ayato's view, if the parties involved are willing, there is indeed no need to get to the bottom of it, but the premise is that this matter is truly "beneficial".
The cunning person behind it all was quite clever, choosing a point of contention that made it difficult for Ayato to get close.
As the head of the clan, he couldn't investigate this matter, because it could easily be used by people with ulterior motives to make a fuss, saying that he deliberately obstructed the marriage alliance between the two clans.
Those who resort to underhanded tactics are clever, but Ayato is even more cunning. He can't easily interfere, but he's brought the Traveler along.
Is there anything in Inatsume that the Traveler can't get involved in? The Traveler is known for being 'helpful'!
Ayato first stirred up the traveler's curiosity with a few words on the way, and then took the traveler to the Hiiragi family.
The traveler was acquainted with Hiiragi Senri, and out of concern, he would ask Hiiragi Senri about the reasons behind the matter. You see, isn't this helping to 'investigate'?
[Ayato praised, "The traveler is truly remarkable; to grasp the essence of a brief meeting like this, his insight is extraordinary. You are indeed as my younger sister said, meticulous and thorough."]
Hearing Ayato's praise, the traveler proudly put his hands on his hips, becoming bloated with pride.
Ayato in the illustration has a very gentle smile, almost as if she's about to clap.
Traveler's manual, coaxing people along.
The traveler involved was caught off guard, but Ying, an observer, noticed something amiss.
Isn't this just using me? No way! I'm going to make a scene at the Kamisato's house!
Ayato continued, "If her will is as firm as Kujo Kamaji's, then they can weather the storm together. Otherwise..."
In fact, the key is not whether Hiiragi Senri's will is firm, but whether Hiiragi Senri's will is determined by herself!
If she has the right to that unwavering will, then it doesn't matter who's playing tricks behind her back.
If she doesn't have it, then no matter how strong her will is, it's useless.
Look at General Thunder, a paragon of unwavering will, yet he was still fooled by two followers who treated him like a fool.
The two adhered to the principle of never lying to the general, but they also never told the whole story.
The only report submitted by the company's chief magistrate, who wanted to tell the whole story, was blocked by the other two chief magistrates.
Hiiragi Senri may be in a similar situation; her subordinates may not be openly rebelling against her yet, but they are already disobeying her behind her back.
If that's the case, then Ayato needs to intervene, otherwise the hard-won stability might fall apart again.
When Ayato and the traveler arrived at the Hiiragi residence, Matsuura, Hishida, and Yagi were discussing the marriage alliance, and only stopped their discussion upon seeing Ayato.
Ayato once again delivered his blessings empty-handed. Matsuura explained that the young lady was currently entertaining guests and did not know when she would be able to receive Ayato.
This left Inatsume completely bewildered. What kind of guest was more important than the head of the family?
Everyone frowned, feeling that something was strange. Matsuura decided on Hiiragi Senri's schedule without even asking. Who was in charge?
Not only that, the three even referred to the traveler as Ayato's attendants.
The group relaxed upon realizing the traveler didn't recognize them; apparently, he wasn't anyone important.
Ayato still believed in the principle of first come, first served, and didn't compete with the person who arrived first. She decided to kill some time on the island while waiting.
Then Ayato took the travelers sightseeing, and on the remote island they met the shopkeeper named 'Tomoki,' whom Ayato was a regular customer.
He's quite something; his long-term clients are either generals or heads of powerful families.
Maybe it was because the company magistrate ordered a batch of dango milk that Aya got to know him?
Ayato and the traveler were making DIY milk tea at Tomoki's place, chatting about what happened at Hiiragi's house while drinking the milk tea.
In the illustration, Ayato touches his chin with his hand, his eyes slightly narrowed, as if he is thinking and analyzing.
Upon seeing this illustration, some Inatsumi fans commented: "The gloves of the company commander... are so sexy."
This might sound a bit vulgar, but I'm going to say it anyway.
Well, to tell you the story, Ayato felt that the three of them were a bit strange because they had once said, "The Hiiragi family's happy event is their happy event..."
That's not right. Currently, Shinsuke Hiiragi is cultivating his Dao in Ryuchang, and the pillar of the Hiiragi family is Senri Hiiragi.
If Hiiragi Senri were to marry into the Kujo family at this time, wouldn't the future of the Kansei Magistrate be bleak? How could this be a happy occasion?
According to Inazuma tradition, after Hiiragi Senri marries Kujo Kamaji, she will no longer be a member of the Hiiragi family; she will even have to change her surname to Kujo Senri.
Those three were intelligent people; they should have thought of this, yet they still supported the marriage alliance.
From this, it seems that these three families are mostly harboring ulterior motives and intend to overthrow their superiors and replace the Hiiragi family as the head of the Kanjō-gyō (a government agency).
What? You're saying this should have been appointed by the general?
At this moment, Lei Yingdian was eating tricolor dumplings with an indifferent expression.
If you look at her blank expression and then speak to her, does she seem like someone who would care about this?
Raiden Shin: He still needs to be trained.
Chapter 424 Those Who Invade Power Are All Unlucky
For Ying, it doesn't matter who is the chief inspector, as long as they do a good job. If they don't, she'll replace them. She's not worried about being overthrown by her subordinates.
Knowing that his general was not involved in the affairs of the household, Ayato directly ordered the members of the final squad to keep a close eye on the three families.
Lei Yingdian remained unconcerned about secretly raising a private army.
Why do people always say Ying is a silly Ying? It's not that she's stupid, it's just that she doesn't care about many things.
This nonchalant attitude made her seem dull, as if she was slow to act and think.
Actually, she wasn't just slow to react; she simply didn't think at all.
Do you really need to think about something so simple? You'd better ask the knife in my hand first!
For Shadow, chopping down the lady is not as difficult as cooking and chopping vegetables. Given this disparity, does she even need to think about how to deal with the lady?
Returning to the story, Hiiragi Senri sent someone to invite Ayato.
Upon meeting Hiiragi Senri, the group exchanged pleasantries for a while. Although Ayato disliked small talk, he did it with remarkable ease.
Like Abelardo, they dislike small talk but are all very good at speaking, making people feel comfortable.
In this respect, the woman was the complete opposite. She liked to chat, but she didn't know how to speak properly, and what she said could easily make people angry.
In the story, Ayato naturally steers the conversation to the arranged marriage and then shows concern for Hiiragi Chisato's feelings.
Ayato said, "Miss Hiiragi seems to have many concerns."
[Chisato Hiiragi nodded and said, "...Yes, that's right. There are just too many things to consider."]
"The person I just met wasn't an important guest, but rather one of the servants in the manor, Shinnosuke."
"His words were very blunt: he told me... not to marry Kamaji."
Shinnojo felt something was wrong. Although he was very sad, he was sure he would support Miss in this matter. Why would she do this?
Could it be that Kujo Kamaji is actually a scumbag and he's finally discovered it?
Impossible. The idea that the rival is a scumbag who got dumped by the goddess is just a dying woman's fantasy.
It turns out that Shinnojo in the story, while heartbroken, also realized one thing: that now is definitely not a good time for Hiiragi Chisato to get married.
This makes Shinnojo seem even more pitiful; even in his sorrow, he still thinks about the happiness of his beloved.
If even an ordinary servant like him could figure it out, how could those three, from a powerful family under the Hiiragi clan, not understand? This matter was indeed strange.
If Kujo and the Hiiragi family really want to get married, they should have Kujo Kamaji marry into the Hiiragi family, since Kujo Kamaji has an older brother anyway.
If all else fails, there's always Kujo Sara, the Kujo family is full of talented people, unlike the Hiiragi family.
If Kujo Kamaji was humiliated, he could simply summon the shogunate army and then give a crooked smile.
In the story, Ayato subtly reminds Hiiragi Chisato of a conspiracy and also mentions the marriage proposal letter.
"I heard you didn't write this letter. Lord Kujo thinks you're just shy..."
At this point, Ayato looked troubled. In the illustration, he frowned, his expression a mixture of grievance and difficulty, as he spoke:
"Oh dear, should I have said that?"
All I can say is that she's truly cunning; she's already said everything but still pretends to be innocent—she's got a real sour taste in her mouth.
[Hira Chisato wondered, "Huh? Isn't that... isn't that Kamaji's little proposal trick? He even deliberately used such a cute, elaborately designed font; it's obvious he came prepared..."]
[Ayato said, "So it's the lovely cursive script... You mean, without the letter as a catalyst, you two might not have chosen this time to get married?"]
Hiiragi Senri agreed, after all, her father had just gone to prison and she never expected to get married at this time.
Ayato nodded: "However, it's certainly a good thing that you two can trust each other. Looking at it that way, the origin of the letter isn't so important."
Ayato hinted to Hiiragi Senri that the letter wasn't important, and Hiiragi Senri immediately understood that the letter was very important!
But you can't show it; you have to pretend that believing it really doesn't matter!
Hiiragi Senri understood Ayato's implication and indicated that she would think about it again.
Ayato nodded: "Being with the one you love is a joyous occasion that should not be tainted. I sincerely hope that you two will find happiness free from any gloom."
This truly demonstrates Ayato's high emotional intelligence. Although he didn't explicitly stop it, he made the person involved understand the issue through his words.
Most importantly, his way of speaking also prevents eavesdroppers.
Hiiragi Senri currently has no real power, so the possibility that her conversation was being eavesdropped on is too high.
Readers who read their chat also wanted to request a 'Chinese-to-Chinese translation', but they simply couldn't fully understand it.
However, we also gained some new information from the conversations in the story, and gradually sorted out the plot.
It has to be said that this story has a completely different flavor, just like watching a mystery story.
After witnessing those heart-wrenching plot points, this story is truly relaxing, finally allowing one to soothe a weary soul.
Ayato said to the traveler, "Traveler, let's go to a convenient place and exchange information."
Sino was shocked. What information? We need to go to the restroom to exchange it?
Nasita: Going to the toilet does help with thinking.
With the famous quote from the Grass God, it's no wonder that Seno likes to speak in a large voice; it turns out it makes it easier to think of corny jokes.
After leaving the Hiiragi family, Ayato and the traveler discussed the incident and organized information.
Paimon remarked, "Hira Senri's condition... is so different from Kujo Kamaji's."
The reason for the large gap in their situations is that marrying someone else is only one aspect; the main reason lies in their abilities.
