Chapter 68 The Divine Child Teases the Shadow, Paimon Responds
"Your face is flushed, Sara, are you sick with a fever?"
As she spoke, the shadow slowly approached Kujo Sara.
"No... General, it's because I was too hasty in climbing the castle tower just now, and I'm tired."
"Oh my god, Ying is such an idiot, can't she even tell that I'm shy...?"
Yae no Kamiko, a bystander, found a stool and sat down, watching the show while secretly chuckling.
If phonographs hadn't been so common in Inazuma, Yae no Miko would have planned to capture this amusing scene on camera!
"Hmm... It's good that you're alright. You can go now."
"I obey your command."
After the conversation ended, Kujo Sara carefully turned around and tried her best to control her body as she walked away step by step.
At this moment, she was like water boiling in a pot.
The general not only praised me, but also showed concern for me!
After Kujo Sara left.
"Oh my gosh~ I never thought our god would actually learn to care about people!"
Yae no Miko stood up, revealing a meaningful smile.
"Is there anything wrong with caring about your subordinates?"
Shadow didn't understand the hidden meaning in Yae no Miko's words and tilted his head to ask a question.
"Haha, Kage, you're so cute! Didn't you realize that Sara was blushing because she was shy?"
"Shyness...a mortal emotion, hard to understand."
"That's right. Our little Yingying is in a high position as a deity, so it's normal that she doesn't know these things."
"Divine Child, say it again, don't call me Little Shadow."
"Oh? You don't like it... Well then, how about I call you Da Yingying?"
"...Do you have any particular fondness for reduplicated words?"
Ying pouted and stared intently into Yae no Miko's eyes.
"No, I just wanted to call you that, haha."
After saying that, Yae no Miko wagged her tail happily and prepared to leave.
"Little Yingying, I'll come find you to play again tomorrow~"
Liyue, a park.
"Wow, this smells amazing!"
Yinggang helped break the mud apart, and the aroma of beggar's chicken wafted out, causing Paimon to exclaim in surprise.
"That boss seems to be quite conscientious, he picked out such a big beggar's chicken for me."
Xiaogong nodded in approval.
"Here you go, Paimon! This chicken leg is for you!"
Xiaogong yanked off a chicken leg and handed it to Paimon, who was practically drooling.
"Oh? Hehe, then I won't be polite!"
Meanwhile, Ayaka Kamisato, sitting opposite them, started chatting while enjoying the food.
"Ying, where are Xunfeng and Hutao?"
"They seem to be preparing for the New Year at the funeral parlor, right? At this time, they should already be ready."
"Oh right~ Speaking of Xunfeng and Hu Tao, it's been so long since you left last time, has Xunfeng recovered yet?"
Once she realized what was happening, Yoomiya followed up with a question.
"Don't even mention it! Xunfeng ran straight from your fireworks shop to the Kamisato Mansion, and inexplicably called Miss Ayaka 'Mom'!"
Paimon, munching on a chicken leg, replied earnestly.
"Hmm...Paymon, you don't need to bring me up!"
After hearing Paimon's words, Ayaka Kamisato awkwardly covered her face with her folding fan once again.
"Oh? Haha, I didn't expect such an interesting little episode! So, what's next?"
"Hmm... Next... mountain climbing, boating, injury, treatment, dinner, departure... Which part do you want to hear?"
"You guys seem to have been through quite a lot~ Hehe, I'd love to hear it all!"
And so, under the expectant gaze of Yomiya, Paimon embellished his story of his experiences in Inazuma.
Fifteen minutes later.
Paimon, who had been sitting in his seat, became more and more excited as he spoke, and eventually flew up and finished telling the story with great enthusiasm.
While Paimon was talking, Ying, who was sitting next to her, secretly ate most of the beggar's chicken!
By the time Paimon realized what was happening, the chicken had already been quietly devoured!
"Phew~ That's about it... Ying, I don't think I made any mistakes, right?"
Paimon looked at Ying hesitantly, trying to get her confirmation.
“That’s right… uh, cough cough! Very well said…”
Noticing Paimon's gaze, Ying hurriedly swallowed the last of the chicken pieces.
"Waaaaah, Ying! You ate all the chicken!"
Paimon rubbed his eyes several times in surprise.
But the beggar's chicken that was nothing but a skeleton in front of him forced Paimon to accept the reality.
"Ah, Paimon, you told the story so well! I couldn't help but get lost in it... that's why..."
"Sigh~ Okay, I forgive you! I'll buy myself beggar's chicken when I get my wages tomorrow!"
Liyue, Commercial Street.
"This place is bustling with traffic, disciples, stay close to me."
Xianyun frowned slightly and adjusted his glasses.
“True Lord, Shen He and I are walking ahead of you.”
"Ahem, don't worry about the details. I'll take you to see A-Ping. Come with me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xianyun was about to take a step when Shenhe tugged at his sleeve.
"Master, look! That looks like the Emperor over there!"
"Oh? It really is! Let's go say hello."
Zhongli, who was not far away, noticed the three of them.
"Huh? Why is Liu Yun here?"
"Your Majesty, my mechanical creation is complete. I have come to Liyue Harbor to meet with an old friend."
"Very good, welcome."
