Su Yuan, holding the pouches given by Kokomi, followed Gorou and boarded the ship back to Narukami Island. Besides Su Yuan and Gorou, there were many people who had previously fled to Narukami Island for refuge. Now that Narukami had returned to normal, it was time to send them back home. Of course, some chose to stay on Watatsumi Island a while longer, and Kokomi didn’t stop them. "By the way, General Gorou, what exactly is inside the pouches Kokomi gave me?" Su Yuan asked, glancing at the three pouches in his hand. "Lady Kokomi thinks through things very carefully and thoroughly," Gorou explained. "She considers every possible scenario and, for those most likely to occur, she comes up with ways to break through the situation and writes them down inside the pouches..." "But after all, these pouches are only predictions for possible situations, not clairvoyance..." "How cleverly you use the contents of the pouches depends on the skill of the person using them." "In Lady Kokomi’s words, the pouches are just a safety measure for emergencies. They’re useful, but don’t get greedy or become dependent on them!" "Also, under no circumstances should the pouches be opened early. If opened prematurely, their contents will become completely ineffective!" Listening to Gorou’s explanation, Su Yuan smiled. He was really curious—he actually wanted to open the pouches early to see what was inside... But since Gorou said that, it was better to just leave them be for now. ............ When Su Yuan and Gorou arrived at Narukami Island, they noticed that the environment and atmosphere had improved tremendously compared to before. Shops that had previously been closed were gradually reopening, and the streets were bustling with people. Everything was moving in a positive direction. "Su Yuan, General Gorou." After sending the refugees back home, Su Yuan and Gorou heard someone calling them from behind. They turned around and saw Kujou Sara. "Last night, all available forces of the Shogunate conducted a thorough, all-night inspection across Inazuma and found no safety hazards." "The biochemical weapon that Dottore claimed could destroy Inazuma was probably just an empty bluff." "If that’s the case, then that’s even better," Gorou replied. "We also conducted an overnight inspection on Watatsumi Island and found no issues there either." "Good," Kujou Sara nodded, then turned to Su Yuan and said, "Su Yuan, once you and General Gorou finish your business, come to the Tenshukaku. The Shogun wishes to see you again." Su Yuan agreed, and Kujou Sara left. "Where to next?" Su Yuan asked Gorou. "Should we go straight to Narukami Shrine and check on that pink-haired little fox?" "No, since we’re already in Inazuma City, let’s go to Yae Publishing House first!" Gorou spoke up: "I’ve collaborated with Yae Miko at Yae Publishing House before..." "You’ve probably heard of the ’Idle Affairs Monthly,’ right? There’s an anonymous column in it—that’s actually written by me." "The readers and I communicate anonymously through Yae Publishing House as an intermediary..." "But recently, because of the situation in Inazuma, Yae Publishing House has been closed, so ’Idle Affairs Monthly’ naturally stopped publishing. I haven’t been able to respond to readers’ questions or talk with them, so they must be quite worried..." "Usually, I’d have Yae Publishing House send those letters back to Watatsumi Island, and after I reply, they’d send them back to Yae Publishing House..." "But now that I’m already in Inazuma City, I might as well go directly to Yae Publishing House to get those letters!" "Uh..." Su Yuan suddenly had a bad feeling. "Gorou, maybe we should hold off on going to Yae Publishing House for now..." "Let’s just go take a look! Who knows—maybe Yae Miko is already back to normal and reading light novels inside Yae Publishing House right now!" As Gorou spoke, he grabbed Su Yuan’s hand and started running, heading straight for Yae Publishing House. When Su Yuan and Gorou arrived at the entrance of Yae Publishing House, they found that the place was already crowded with people. From within the crowd, someone shouted: "Editor Kuroda! Do you have any more copies of Idle Affairs Monthly? Give me one!" "These past few days without Idle Affairs Monthly... I feel like I’ve lost the meaning of life!!" "Yeah, same here! I want a copy too!" boomed a tall, muscular figure with horns in the crowd—it was none other than Arataki Itto. "Looks like Idle Affairs Monthly really is a hit among the citizens of Inazuma. Yae Miko wasn’t lying to me after all..." Gorou looked at the scene with a bit of satisfaction, scratched his head, and said: "I wonder how many people here are actually readers of my column?" "Gorou, maybe we should leave for now," Su Yuan said earnestly. "There are too many people here—it’s way too crowded. Maybe you could come back another time, when there aren’t so many people..." Su Yuan was a little worried. If Gorou’s condition for becoming eerie was something like his dignity being challenged—or losing his sense of authority... Then if Gorou were to find out that he himself was actually Miss Hina... Would he feel so humiliated that it would shatter his dignity and trigger his eerie state? "Hey, isn’t that General Gorou and Su Yuan?" Just then, Arataki Itto spotted the two of them, jumped up, and waved enthusiastically. "Are you guys here for Idle Affairs Monthly too? To see Miss Hina?" "Inazuma just went through such a terrible ordeal. Right now, only Miss Hina’s gentle words can bring people comfort and heal our wounded hearts!" "Well said, brother!" someone in the crowd echoed emotionally. "Miss Hina! Miss Hina!! Miss Hina!!!" "Hm?" Gorou suddenly showed a confused expression. "Miss Hina?" "What? General Gorou, don’t tell me... you don’t even know who Miss Hina is?" Arataki Itto said in disbelief. "Of course I know Miss Hina. Isn’t she a very popular and well-known column writer?" Gorou still looked puzzled. "But... what does Miss Hina have to do with Idle Talk Monthly?" "Huh???" Arataki Itto’s mouth fell open in shock, as if his jaw was about to hit the ground. "General Gorou, are you seriously from Inazuma? Miss Hina’s column is in Idle Talk Monthly!" Perhaps because his mind and eyes were completely filled with Miss Hina’s beautiful image, Arataki Itto didn’t notice that behind Gorou, Su Yuan was frantically making faces and gestures, desperately signaling him to shut up... --------------- Exclusive access : 320+ch on paetron Join now : patreon*com/DeCakraWnloverz
