"Why did you call my sister back so quickly? And why did you put away her body? Are you retaliating against me for what the Shogun did to you, planning to punish me this way?"
An hour quickly passed. Before the Raiden Shogun had fully enjoyed herself, Durandal pulled Raiden Makoto's soul out and put away her body, preventing Raiden Ei from acting spoiled.
This truly panicked our Electro Archon. Under Durandal's dark gaze, she drew Musou Isshin, with an expression that clearly said, "If you don't give me an explanation, I won't let you off," completely unaware of the situation.
"Punish you? According to the original plan, it would be some time before you met Raiden Makoto. But what happened? You didn't keep your promise to me and came here to disturb me. I specifically used my power to give you an hour to meet. And now you blame me? Fine! Very well! Is this the attitude of Inazuma's supreme ruler? I understand completely."
Oh no! Yae Miko keenly sensed Durandal's anger and was about to mediate when Durandal, holding Shenhe's hand, transformed into a black mist and vanished from the room.
"I don't need this room anymore either. I won't be coming here for any adjustments in the future. I don't have the ability to use your Electro Archon's territory, so I won't bother you anymore."
Durandal lightly left these words, causing Raiden Ei and Yae Miko's expressions to change drastically. Raiden Ei immediately wanted to chase after her with her sword, but Yae Miko stopped her.
"Why are you stopping me, Miko? You heard her, she's not coming to Tenshukaku anymore. This... this means my sister and I won't have a chance to meet again."
Raiden Ei was truly frantic. She had only just reunited with Raiden Makoto, and now they had met for less than an hour, and there might be no chance to meet again in the future. How could she allow such a thing?
"Calm down, Ei! You've gone too far this time. Think carefully about what you just did."
Yae Miko was also angry this time. She didn't spare Raiden Ei's feelings, using a reproachful tone to tell Raiden Ei to calm down and think about what had just happened.
"I... what did I do? I just wanted to be with my sister, is that wrong?"
"No, but why did you say those things to her? Think about it, if it weren't for her, could Makoto have reappeared before us? She has been secretly helping Raiden Makoto create a body for her resurrection, do you know how much effort that took?"
"...I know."
Having created the Raiden Shogun herself, Raiden Ei naturally understood the complexity involved. If it weren't for her obsession with eternity at the time, she probably would have given up halfway.
"Alright, you know she worked very hard. I guess today was probably their first test, to see if the body created could match Makoto's soul. And what happened?"
"You broke your promise and barged in. Originally, you and Makoto couldn't have contact, but she kindly allowed you to spend an hour with Makoto. And what did you do to her? You pointed Musou Isshin at her face, didn't say a single word of thanks, and even blamed her. How do you think she felt?"
"She is not your subject, nor a citizen of Inazuma. She is a God, a God who can easily defeat you and the Shogun. She clearly didn't need to put in so much effort to revive Makoto, so why did she do it? Isn't it because she is kind and wanted to help Makoto, so she could reunite with you?"
"She... she's very kind?" Raiden Ei retorted.
"What? You still have an opinion? I see you've completely ignored what's happening outside recently, you have no idea what she's done."
Yae Miko looked at Raiden Ei exasperatedly. Seeing her confused expression, she knew that Raiden Ei was completely unaware of what had happened outside during this time.
"You know about the Sacred Sakura Cleansing Ritual. All she ultimately wanted was for Hanachirusato to gain a free and legitimate identity; she didn't ask for anything for herself. Recently, the warding stones on Yashiori Island were destroyed, and the Tatarasuna God were unleashed, affecting countless residents there. She noticed this situation and specifically went to help the residents there, dealing with the Tatarasuna God, allowing the residents of Yashiori Island to return to normal life."
"She did all of this, and she didn't publicize it or ask for any rewards. Look at how much she has contributed to Inazuma? What have you done? You haven't even said a word of thanks."
