They were all temporary 'acting heads of the family', but the difference was that Kujo Kamaji encountered a wild Kage.

Then, he also had some ability, and after dealing with the Takatsukasa family, he handled the other issues with the Tenryo Magistrate.

He had gained power and even received the Shadow's 'approval,' so his position as the head of the family was now secure.

But Hiiragi Senri is different; she hasn't handled the Hiiragi family's affairs well, and she hasn't encountered any wild shadows yet.

She is currently the head of the Hiiragi family only because she is the heir by bloodline and legal authority.

The people below her naturally did not submit to her, just like the Takatsukasa family, they also wanted to rebel and become the head of the family to be appointed as the Director of the Imperial Household.

They were actually doing the same thing as the Takatsukasa family, but they were smarter and knew better how to use their brains and scheme.

Unfortunately, they encountered Ayato Kamisato, who was even more cunning.

The Takatsukasa family used force to threaten Kujo Kamaji, only to encounter a Kage whose fighting prowess was off the charts.

Matsuura used her brain to replace Hiiragi Chisato, only to encounter Ayato, whose brainpower was off the charts.

What else can be said? I can only say I'm incredibly unlucky.

If these unexpected events hadn't occurred, they might have actually succeeded.

By the way, the shadows are no longer wild; they are now domesticated.

Raiden Shin: He still needs to be trained.

Character Voice Acting - Ayato's Story (from the movie "Thunder")

"I don't understand. Why doesn't the kid from the Kamisato family draw his sword? Wouldn't it be easier for him to handle this with his martial arts skills?"

Chapter 425 Application for Chinese Translation

[Ayato analyzed, "If the forged letter doesn't work, they're not afraid of being held accountable. They can simply say it was a family member acting on their own initiative, just trying to do someone a favor."]

"If it works like it does now... on the surface it's just facilitating a happy event, and it doesn't even require any specific family to step forward, yet it can already achieve the goal of undermining the Hiiragi family."

This was indeed a very clever plan, but unfortunately they encountered Ayato, who was even more adept at scheming, and Ayato had already seen through their intentions.

In fact, Ayato had already come up with a plan.

[Ayato lamented to Hiiragi Chisato: "Her position was extremely passive, manipulated, and used as a pawn; even her marriage became part of a power struggle."]

Even so, she still believed that happiness awaited her...

Hiiragi Senri watched in silence. Even knowing that her future self would be manipulated by others, she had no power to resist now.

Few in the Hiiragi family's inner circle still listened to her. After her father was arrested, everyone felt that the Hiiragi family had lost power and now was a good opportunity to take their place.

Hiiragi Senri couldn't figure out how to solve this problem, but Ayato could.

However, before solving the problem, Ayato still plans to go and save Shinnojo first.

Shinnojo advised Hiiragi Senri against getting married, which was considered a serious crime by the rebels. They were sure to imprison him, at least until the rebellion ended.

It was uncertain whether to release him or kill him, so Ayato decided to go and save him first.

After all, Shinnojo did nothing wrong and shouldn't suffer like this.

The member from the previous final episode suddenly reappeared, bringing information about Shinnojo's place of imprisonment.

Shinnojo was arrested simply because he was a scapegoat; after he approached Hiiragi Senri, Hiiragi Senri became hesitant about marriage.

Those members of smaller families probably heard what Shinnojo said, which is why they suspected it was because of Shinnojo.

As readers know, this was actually due to Ayato's suggestion, but Ayato was very restrained in his words during the conversation, so there was no way to get any evidence against him openly.

The mastermind behind the scenes couldn't spread rumors that the company was advocating for the destruction of two marriages.

Therefore, the only option left is to deal with Shinnojo, who suddenly barged into Hiiragi Senri's room.

The key point of the mastermind's plan was to make the two people who were set up believe that they were getting married naturally.

In this process, they naturally want to meet as few people as possible.

Ayato was helpless; the head of the family and the magistrate couldn't stop him. But Shinnojo was a complete accident; he rushed forward so fast that no one else could react in time.

They just walk in while shouting things like "Victory, Friendship, Bonds" and "I'm the Train King," and nobody can stop them.

Most importantly, they didn't expect that a conscript could see the problem. It can only be said that Shinnojo really cares about Hiiragi Senri.

As for why Ayato cares so much about this matter, it's naturally for the sake of 'stability,' which is also a pursuit of 'eternity.'

Of course, it could also be because of his mother that Ayato wanted to help Hiiragi Senri at this moment.

However, he could not directly stop the marriage, because as the head of the family who was in charge of the society, he would inevitably become a "bad guy" and be attacked by public opinion if he stopped the marriage.

So what Ayato wants to do now is to find Shinnojo first, and then use Shinnojo to lure out the 'big fish' behind the incident.

Upon arriving at the place where Shinnojo was imprisoned, Ayato beat up the servants there, but instead of pursuing them, he untied the cage from which Shinnojo was imprisoned.

Shinnojo: Farewell, cage!

[Shinjiro hurriedly said, "Miss is getting married... Listen to me, someone wants to take advantage of Miss's wedding to do bad things!"]

After being rescued, he immediately began to care for Ms. Hiiragi, which shows that his love for Hiiragi Senri is definitely not just empty words.

However, the travelers and their companions already knew about this.

[Ayato Kamisato said, "The Shogun has always detested tedious political games. As her magistrate, I have an obligation to handle her trivial matters."]

Ying nodded. "Well said, very well said. You really understand me. I've been thinking about whether or not to arrest them all."

To be honest, Ying has become much gentler since Zhen came back. She's wondering whether to capture them instead of chopping them up or bricking them into the wall.

She's so gentle, I'm so moved I could cry.

Ayato was also very gentle. After rescuing the person, Ayato didn't rush to leave. He was waiting for the bait he had just released to bring back a big fish.

As soon as he stepped out of the cave, Matsuura was waiting outside. He arrived so quickly, it was as if he had been waiting nearby all along.

Now it's unclear whose bait Shinnojo is using.

Matsuura said, "I heard you came to this place without any reason and even injured my men. Could it be that you're secretly carrying out some kind of operation?"

Upon arrival, Matsuura immediately showered Ayato with compliments.

He does have some brains; by labeling Ayato, he can stand on the 'moral high ground' himself.

If Ayato says something wrong at this time, he can immediately publicize it.

Ayato knew this too, so he started a high-EQ conversation.

Ayato replied, "I just heard that someone was abusing their power, and as a responsible Inatsuma official, I couldn't stand idly by."

Ayato knew perfectly well that the other person was trying to pin a label on him, so he took off the hat and put it on the other person's head, saying that Matsuura was using 'vigilance'.

The only person who could use vigilante justice against Inazuma was Kage, because every word she uttered was law, and vigilante justice was not an option.

The two were having a high-EQ conversation, but the reader didn't want to listen; all they wanted to hear was, "The person who hurt you? They'll break your legs too!"

Everyone has watched the Traveler come this far. When has the Traveler ever used words? He always breaks the legs first.

Songpo laughed and said, "Vigilante justice? How can this be considered vigilante justice? This is just discipline."

"A mere soldier, barging up to the young lady out of nowhere, spouting a bunch of presumptuous and rude remarks—what kind of behavior is this?"

Matsuura probably realized that Ayato was not easy to deal with, so this time he took off his hat and put it on Shinnojo's head.

"A marriage alliance between two families should have been a joyous occasion, but a foolish pawn made it all so complicated."

"Someone as noble as you shouldn't have the same thoughts as that lowly soldier."

He put the hat on Shinnojo's head, and then subtly criticized Ayato while praising him openly.

If it's just an idea, then wouldn't you be wearing the hat again? If not, then what's the reason your company is interfering? Could it really be just to cause trouble?

Matsuura certainly knows how to talk; after he finished speaking, even the talkative Paimon was speechless.

The readers were speechless. What? What is this all about?

Requesting 'Chinese to Chinese translation'!

If all else fails, traveler, you should just go up and break his legs.

Chapter 426 Ayato Kamisato Scolds Matsuura

Matsuura described the matter as an "emotional issue" or a "personal issue," focusing on the two individuals while deliberately ignoring their political identities.

Ayato and Shinnojo are now the bad guys who are destroying a couple's 'sincere feelings'.

If that woman were to speak to him at this moment, she would be so angry that she would say, "How dare you, a mortal, be so disrespectful, presumptuously trying to guess the thoughts of immortals!"

If I can't argue with you, can't I at least have a magical duel with you?

At this point, readers just want the traveler to go directly to Thor and see who really has the final say on Inazuma's policies.

However, Ayato has already said that he doesn't want to trouble the general, so the idea of ​​clinging to a powerful figure has been rejected. Let's see how Ayato handles this.

Fortunately, Ayato was also good at talking. He smiled with his eyes narrowed and began to tell a story with his mouth opening and closing.

He mentioned a rare bird with a very long tongue that could even be tied in two knots, and asked Matsuura to guess what the bird was used for.

This stumped Matsuura; he couldn't understand why Ayato had steered the conversation to something so trivial.

However, given the difference in their social status, he couldn't ignore Ayato's question, otherwise it would be rude, so he tried to answer.

Songpo said, "This...this...is it intended as a pet for display?"

Ayato chuckled, "Heh heh, it's funny. This kind of bird can't be kept as a pet, and it's completely useless. Even if you caught it, you could only cut off its tongue and throw it out the window."

[“Because everyone says, ‘With such a long tongue, and a penchant for sophistry, all that chatter... it’s all just bluffing.’”]

All I can say is that he's easy to insult. Now Matsuura understood; Ayato was subtly mocking him by using a non-existent bird as a pretext.

This conversation even failed to convey its veiled irony to some people, such as Ichidou, who thought, "My good brother seems unable to handle this; perhaps I, the grandpa, should step in."

On the contrary, Silly Fufu watched with great interest and understood everything.

She might not be good at other things, but when it comes to conversation skills, she can understand both good and bad things.

Over the past five hundred years, she has had countless conversations with people. If she couldn't understand the meaning behind their words, how could she play the role of a deity well?

Matsuura: "You...! Lord Commissioner, did you come here just to mock us Commissioners?"

He was also clever. Since he was at a disadvantage due to his status, he elevated his own status this time, equating himself with the position of the Imperial Censor.

If Ayato were to criticize him further, it would be tantamount to saying that the Commissioner of the Imperial Household was wrong.

Moreover, the two people's statuses became equal to some extent, with Matsuura now serving as the 'representative' and the magistrate.

Ayato smiled and said, "How could that be? In my heart, the officials in charge of investigations have always been upright, honest, and virtuous people who are dedicated to their duties."

"A person like you shouldn't be acting so mysteriously, avoiding the important issues, just to find a reason to remove Miss Hiiragi from her position as the Chief Administrator."

Ayato's words effectively severed ties between Matsuura and the Kansei Magistrate, and even directly confronted Matsuura's shortcomings.

Matsuura replied, "Lord Colonel, you must provide evidence for your statements."

Ayato smiled and looked at Shinnojo, "Isn't the evidence right here?"

"Oh dear, the Matsuura family, a prestigious and powerful clan, is surprisingly less loyal than even an ordinary servant."

Ayato is wrong about this statement. In fact, Matsuura wanted to advance further because he had studied and become an official; he was extremely eager to improve himself.

If Matsuura were an ordinary person, he would at most be a pawn, how could he possibly 'play chess' with Ayato here?

It's important to know that the Kamisato family had just fallen into decline, and Ayato was the one who saved the family from collapse. In historical terms, it was like "East Kamisato" was almost gone, but he rebuilt "West Kamisato".

What can Matsuura compare to him? His methods are far inferior. At least Wang Mang successfully usurped the Han throne, while Matsuura hasn't even succeeded yet.

Ayato's series of sarcastic remarks broke Matsuura's defenses, and he began to stubbornly defend himself.

Matsuura: "...Hahaha! Is that so? Well, what can you, in your cleverness, do to me?!"

It's practically a provocation, saying, "Go ahead and hit me!"

The two people in the illustration are extremely close together. Usually, when they're that close, they're either about to fight or kiss.
