The defeat of the Seven Sterility Saints spread through Heaven in seconds.
Angels whispered.
Bureaucrats panicked.
Several divine interns cried.
In the Sterility Palace, the Immortal's eyebrow twitched.
"Pathetic," he spat.
"Utterly pathetic.
They were defeated by a child with a pillow."
He slammed a hand onto the divine bell of punishment.
RING.
"Summon the Inspector-General."
A hush fell.
A heavenly officer gasped.
"B-but sir… the Inspector-General is—
He's too strict even for Heaven!"
The Immortal hissed:
"She needs someone who enforces order without mercy."
The bell rang again.
The clouds split.
And a figure stepped out…

⭐ 1. ENTER: THE INSPECTOR-GENERAL
He wore seven layers of robes.
He carried twelve clipboards.
He had spectacles sharp enough to slice reality.
He radiated pure, bureaucratic judgement.
He was the clean-freak of all clean-freaks.
**THE HEAVENLY INSPECTOR-GENERAL
OF SUPREME ORDER
GRANDMASTER OF AUDITS
DESTROYER OF FUN**
He adjusted his glasses.
"I have reviewed the reports.
A child is violating all known regulations of existence."
The Sterility Immortal pointed downward.
"Erase her."
The Inspector-General bowed.
"With pleasure."

⭐ 2. THE INSPECTOR ARRIVES AT DUSTWIND
Dustwind disciples were enjoying a short break:
Tien was hiding from his frying pan.
Aurelius was sharpening the air.
Lin Ruyin was being beaten by her posture staff.
Jin Haru was crying because his cube turned into a bucket again.
Then—
BOOOOOOM.
A perfectly rectangular beam of light slammed into the valley.
A refined cough echoed.
"Dustwind Sect," a cold voice announced,
"Your *entire existence* is OUT OF COMPLIANCE."
Tien screamed:
"ANOTHER ONE?! HOW MANY DOES HEAVEN HAVE?!"
The Inspector-General appeared, surrounded by floating scrolls, legal seals, and binders labeled:
• For Miyu
• Also For Miyu
• Things Miyu Broke
• Laws Miyu Ate
• War Crimes (Probable)
He stepped forward.
"I am the highest authority beneath the Sterility Immortal.
I specialize in…
**CORRECTIVE CLEANING**."
Auntie Bao narrowed her eyes.
"That sounds evil."
"It is," the Inspector said cheerfully.
---
⭐ 3. THE INSPECTOR'S OPENING MOVE
He flicked his clipboard.
"Violation #1: Irregular posture."
Lin Ruyin gasped and instinctively straightened—but too late.
A hurricane-force wind of posture correction blasted her into a tree.
BONK.
"Violation #2: Excessive emotional purity."
A beam hit Jin Haru.
He instantly felt guilty for everything he had never done.
"Violation #3: Unauthorized Cube Construction."
He pointed at Tien.
Tien shrieked, "WHY ME?!" and his cube wok transformed into a report card listing his flaws.
Tien cried harder.
"Violation #4—"
Aurelius stepped in front of Miyu, blade drawn.
"That is enough."
The Inspector raised one eyebrow.
"Ah. The disciple with posture compliance rating of 95%.
Impressive."
Aurelius nodded proudly.
The Inspector continued:
"But still inadequate."
He flicked his sleeve.
Aurelius was launched backward through three rocks.
---
⭐ 4. DUSTWIND COUNTERATTACKS (BADLY)
Auntie Bao charged.
"YOU PAPER-WAVING SCARECROW—!!"
Her mop streaked like a shooting star.
The Inspector lifted a single finger.
The mop froze mid-air.
Auntie Bao froze with it.
The mop slowly rotated…
And pointed at her.
Auntie Bao screamed.
"TREACHERY—!!"
She fled while her own mop chased her.
Solene summoned glowing circles.
The Inspector stamped a paper:
[ILLEGAL ART]
Solene exploded into glitter.
(Not dead, just artistically offended.)
Tien threw his frying pan.
It reached the Inspector—
Then politely stopped because it detected "no oil".
Tien: "TRAITOR—!!"
---
⭐ 5. MIYU FINALLY MOVES
The Inspector stepped toward Miyu.
"Child.
You are the greatest violation here."
Miyu blinked.
"…Why."
"You clean incorrectly."
"…?."
"You clean with intention."
"…?"
"You clean with emotion."
"…?"
"You clean without filing forms."
"…Dirty," Miyu whispered.
The Inspector froze.
"What… did you call me?"
"…Your heart is dirty."
His glasses cracked.
A divine legal aura erupted from him, scattering mountainside stones.
"YOU RECKLESS LITTLE PURITY DEMON—!!
I WILL CLEANSE YOU TO ATOMS!"
He activated his final technique:
**REGULATION APOCALYPSE**
Thousands of rule-scrolls materialized.
Each scroll aimed at Miyu like a missile.
Dustwind disciples screamed.
"Miyu-sama—!!"
"MASTER—!!"
"PILLOW GIRL NOOO—!!"
---
⭐ 6. THE CLEANLINESS CLASH
The scrolls fired.
They shrieked through the air.
Miyu lifted her pillow.
Just her pillow.
*fwump*
The pillow absorbed the scrolls.
They folded themselves neatly.
They stacked themselves.
Perfectly aligned.
Alphabetized.
The Inspector stared in horror.
"My…
My scrolls…
They've been ORGANIZED…
WITHOUT MY CONSENT—!!"
Miyu floated closer.
"…Too messy."
She poked him in the chest.
A pulse of warm purity rippled.
The Inspector-General's robes straightened.
His soul straightened.
His LIFE straightened.
He stumbled backward.
"W-what… what is this sensation…?
Warmth…?
Comfort…?
IS THIS… CLEANLINESS WITH FEELING?!"
He clutched his heart.
"No… no…
THIS IS ILLEGAL."
Miyu poked him again.
"…Dirty."
The Inspector screamed.
"AAAAAAAAAAAA—!!!!"
He ascended into the sky in a spiraling panic, scrolls flapping behind him like embarrassed birds.
---
⭐ 7. HEAVEN'S REPORT
Back in Heaven, he crashed into the Sterility Immortal's door.
"L-LORD!
T-The child…
She… she CLEANED my SOUL."
The Sterility Immortal dropped his staff.
"No human…
No mortal…
No being has EVER cleaned YOU."
The Inspector sobbed.
"She did!"
The Immortal trembled.
"…Prepare the real army."
---
⭐ 8. ENDING — DUSTWIND'S VICTORY (TEMPORARY)
Back in the valley:
Tien danced with joy.
Aurelius regained posture.
Auntie Bao declared victory and made noodles.
Solene redrew her battle plan with smug pride.
Lin Ruyin passed out from relief.
Miyu held her pillow.
Staring upward.
Eyes half-lidded.
Ancient.
"…Tomorrow," she whispered.
"Heaven sends the strong one."
