Chapter 7
"I've seen Ella in maid clothes so many times that seeing her in other clothes makes me feel refreshed."
Since meeting Ella, Kuki Shinobu has never seen her wearing other clothes.
Whether in private, during festivals, or at any other time, she always wears maid clothes.
So when she saw Ella wearing a miko costume, she couldn't help but feel happy and excited.
Although she hated the profession of miko, she basically had to go home. Her family was a miko family. Even at home, she could basically see her sister and mother wearing miko costumes.
Seeing others wearing miko costumes and wearing miko costumes yourself are two different feelings.
"Yeah, that's true." Su Hao also nodded slightly. He and Kuki Shinobu had the same feeling.
But he and Kuki Shinobu were a little different. That was that he had seen Ella wearing other clothes, not just maid clothes.
But the most important thing now was not the clothes Ella wore, but the power contained in this miko costume.
"Do you feel anything?" Su Hao asked Ella. From Kuki Shinobu, he already knew that this was Reimu's miko costume.
Reimu is also known as the shameless miko, and there is also the 100,000 miko. The other party is the miko of Eastern Gensokyo.
Her strength is very strong. Although it is impossible to compare across worlds, the miko costume worn by Reimu is estimated to have some functions. It can't be just clothes, right?
When fighting against the abnormality, it is estimated that the clothes will explode during the battle.
Strong strength does not mean strong clothes, so Su Hao is still looking forward to what effect this miko costume brings.
"…………"
Ella did not speak. She closed her eyes, as if she was feeling something carefully, and finally she suddenly opened her eyes.
"Buzz-!!!"
The mark of the water element appeared on Ella's chest, and her miko costume moved without wind, and there was a sound like water flowing around her.
No, it was not just the sound. With Ella as the center, there seemed to be several phantoms that looked like streams of water around her.
"Huh?" Su Hao narrowed his eyes slightly, seeming a little surprised.
"What's going on?"
As the holder of the Eye of God, Kuki Shinobu was also stunned.
She knew that Ella had the Eye of God, and so did Kujo Sara.
Su Hao silently opened the chat group, filmed this video, and uploaded it to the group.
He had never seen this phenomenon, but there happened to be an ornamental fish and a [Death God] in the group, so he might as well ask them.
The two of them might know what happened to Ella.
【Raiden Shin: “Hmm??? Who is this?”】
【Coral Palace Xinhai: “I can actually hear the sound of water flowing. Is this lady guiding the surrounding elemental forces? Is there such a strong person in Inazuma? It’s really surprising.”】
【Kuki Shinobu: “She is Ella in the group. I signed in in the evening and got a Reimu daily shrine maiden costume. I don’t like shrine maiden costumes, so I gave it to her.”】
【Kuki Shinobu: “At the strong request of Su Hao, the group leader, she changed into this shrine maiden costume to try if it can increase her strength. As a result, the situation in the video appeared.”】
【Kuki Shinobu: [Video], you see, the situation has changed again. 】
【Raiden Zhen: "The sound of the stream disappeared, but I heard the sound of the waves. Wow, this scene is not simple. Has her mastery of elemental power reached the level of God's followers?"】
【Raiden Zhen: "Is this the amplification effect of the shrine maiden's clothes? Or... is this her own power?"】
【Coral Palace Xinhai: "I am very surprised. Even I need to exert my full strength to achieve this kind of vision. Miss Ella is really amazing."】
Both Raiden Zhen and Coral Palace Xinhai have seen countless scenes.
Even they were slightly surprised by the scene in front of them, not to mention Jiuqi Shinobu and Su Hao.
And Ella, who was wearing the shrine maiden's clothes, opened her eyes slightly. She stretched out her hand, and those illusory water flows were all concentrated in her hands, turning into a very delicate sword.
At the moment when the sword was formed, the sound of the waves disappeared, and the strange phenomena around also dissipated.
"Incredible."
Ella spoke, and her previously calm eyes were now a little shocked. Obviously, she was also shocked by her current power.
"How do you feel?" Although Su Hao was a little surprised, he felt it was quite normal.
After all, this was the shrine maiden's outfit that Reimu wore daily. As everyone knows, there were many changes and incidents in Gensokyo. The shrine maiden's outfit used daily was not much different from the shrine maiden's outfit used in battle.
"After putting on this shrine maiden's outfit, I can clearly feel that there is a force in it that is amplifying the Eye of God."
Ella put her hand on her chest. In the shrine maiden's outfit, there was a water elemental Eye of God.
At this moment, this Eye of God was emitting a brighter light than usual.
Ella could also clearly feel that her strength had increased by a large amount. This amplification effect was really too strong.
"And, I have a hunch." Ella looked at the sword in her hand, and she said in a very serious tone: "If I cut a knife now, the movement caused would be enough for the Tenryo Bugyo to come over to check the situation overnight."
Now is the early stage of the Eye Hunting Order, and Inazuma City is very unstable, because this is the place closest to the shogun, and there are naturally many people with the Eye of God.
After the Eye Hunting Order was issued, battles broke out many times in Inazuma Castle. After all, not all God's Eye holders were like Kuuki Shinobu and obediently handed over the God's Eye.
In this country that advocates force, many Eye of God holders began to resist the actions of the shogunate army.
So now if Ella swings down the sword in her hand to test its power, the noise caused will definitely be huge.
"Then don't try it yet." Su Hao stopped him. He didn't want to be invited to Tianling Fengxing's place for tea tonight.
Saying this, Su Hao looked at Jiu Qi Ren and asked, "Do you still want this miko uniform? This increased power can..."
Before Su Hao could finish speaking, Jiu Qinren shook his head decisively and refused: "No, for me, power is only for self-preservation. I will never wear this miko costume."
Obviously, Kuki Shinobi's resistance to the miko uniform is greater than his desire for power.
She would rather have no strength than put on this witch uniform.
"Understood." Ella did not try to chop down the knife. She could vaguely feel that if the knife fell, the destructive power would definitely be quite shocking.
After trying out the miko uniforms, Su Hao, Ella, Kuki Nin and others also went back to their rooms to rest.
Chapter 12: Warnings from the guards (second update)
Chapter 12
The night passed quickly, and the next morning, Su Hao just woke up.
Then I found that Ella and Kuki Shinobu had finished making breakfast and were now sparring in the yard.
"Clang clang clang-!!!"
The swords and daggers were intertwined. In the courtyard, Kuki-nin and Ella kept attacking each other, their expressions were very focused.
Even though Kuki-nin lost her God's Eye and was temporarily unable to use the thunder element to launch attacks, her own martial arts skills were not weak and she could even compete with Kujo Sora.
But now, Kuki Shinobu was suppressed by Aila in terms of simple martial arts.
On the surface, it seemed that they were evenly matched, and Kuki Ninja understood that she had been completely brought into her fighting rhythm by Aila.
As time goes by, she will be the loser.
Su Hao, who had just gotten up, took a rice ball made by Kuki Nin or Ella after washing himself, eating and watching them fight.
I have to say that girls fighting is more pleasing to the eye than men fighting.
“Clang clang clang——!!”
Amidst the sounds of daggers and swords clashing, a few more minutes passed. Kuki Shinobu and Ella seemed to have a tacit understanding. After a simple collision, both parties took a big step back and moved away from each other.
"So strong." Kuki Shinobu looked at Ella. She put away the dagger and sighed: "We haven't fought for a while, and your strength has increased. If you hadn't been merciful, I would have fallen to the ground long ago."
Half a year ago, Kuki Shinobu could compete with Aila with ease.
Now she is no longer a match for Ella, and her strength is growing too fast.
"You have too much time and waste it on other things. I am different." Ella also put away the sword. She looked at Kuki and said calmly: "Once I have free time, I will hone my martial arts."
"This is also the reason why your strength has grown so fast. I don't know where Su Hao picked up your treasure." Jiuqin Ren's eyes were filled with admiration for Ella.
For such a good girl to be picked up by Su Hao, she should not be too envious.
Although Kuki-nin longs for a free job, who would dislike having an all-powerful maid by his side to help him work together?
"…………"
Ella stopped talking. She looked at Su Hao who was eating rice balls and asked, "Master, are you satisfied with today's rice balls?"
"Well, it tastes good, I like it very much." Su Hao nodded with a smile. After the two of them finished fighting, he quickly finished his breakfast, then looked at the two of them and said, "It's almost time, we should leave for the island."
"If the time is right, I might be able to have a meal at the Chamber of Commerce of All Nations at this time and see how their wine sales are going."
After transporting the wine yesterday, Su Hao went to see how the wine was sold at the Chamber of Commerce of All Nations today. If it were someone else, Jiuqi Ren would definitely say that it takes time for others to sell wine, so can't you wait a few days?
But the wine Su Hao sells is indeed very good in a sense, and can even be sold to other countries as Inazuma's signature wine.
Moreover, the Chamber of Commerce of All Nations also wants to make this batch of wine into its own signature, so it is not impossible to sell out in one night.
Of course, going to get the liquor seller Maura was one thing, and on the other hand, Su Hao wanted to see if the two major disciples were really targeting him.
Based on what he has done recently, Su Hao feels that there is a high probability that he will be targeted, if nothing else.
Just by helping to solve the problem of the Chamber of Commerce of All Nations and selling wine to the Chamber of Commerce of All Nations, the other party breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, he still had the ability to have a try with the appointment.
It's enough to make the people who are determined to follow them be hostile to themselves. There are nine robes on the Tianling follower's side, and they probably won't do anything on the surface.
But now because of the rebellion, Kujo Sanra was sent out, who knows what will happen during this period.
So Su Hao called Jiu Qi Ren and wanted to use the other party's ability to help him survive this disaster.
As long as they can hold on until Kujo Sara comes back, or Kamisato Ayato takes care of the two families, then the matter will have a perfect ending.
The three of them set off lightly. When they left Inazuma Castle, the shogunate army in charge of guarding noticed Kuki Shinobu and Su Hao.
"You just came back yesterday, and you set off again today?"
The shogunate army in charge of guarding looked at Su Hao with some surprise. The other party was also a well-known person in Inazuma Castle.
All the family members died, leaving only him. If it weren't for the Kamisato family's action, even if he survived, the family's property would have been swallowed up by other nobles.
Moreover, the other party's standard feature is that there will be a beautiful maid around him, and the two are inseparable.
In Inazuma Castle, as long as you see a beautiful maid walking with a handsome boy, it is basically Su Hao.
What the shogunate army didn't expect was that the deputy who recently joined the Aradaki faction was also with Su Hao.
"Well, there's something going on on the outlying island, so I have to go out today." Su Hao nodded. He had naturally dealt with the shogunate troops guarding Inazuma Castle.
In any case, Su Hao was an Inazuma nobleman after all, and he often left Inazuma Castle to do business in various places in Inazuma.
This naturally led to dealing with the shogunate troops guarding Inazuma Castle. After a few visits, both sides got to know each other.
"Are you going out today?" A shogunate soldier on the side glanced at Su Hao and reminded him, "Then you should be careful recently. It is said that in addition to the Nobushi, a group of rebels suddenly appeared recently."
"You didn't know last night that there was a merchant who specialized in cloth trading. Because of something, he delayed the delivery time and started delivering goods in the evening."
"But I didn't expect that the Nobushi didn't meet him, and a group of forces claiming to be rebels came out halfway and robbed all his goods. It is said that the gang also claimed to be resisting the policies of the general."
"And let out a sound, if not If the isolation order and the eye hunting order are lifted, then the rebels will continue to act. This is just a warning. "
Speaking of this, the rather young shogunate soldier said angrily: "Although I don't know where this group of rebels came from, they dared to rebel against the general in Inazuma. "
"These guys are really unforgivable! If it weren't for Lord Kujo leading the team out, I'm afraid they would have caught those guys overnight. "
Not only this shogunate soldier, but also the soldiers stationed here expressed their anger.
Because they joined the shogunate army because they admired the general, but suddenly a rebel army appeared from nowhere and rebelled against the will of the general.
How could these soldiers bear it? Although they did think that the isolation order and the eye hunting order were a bit of a fuss.
But these were not the reasons for the so-called rebels to rebel against the will of the general.
After a few simple words, the shogunate soldiers did not stop Su Hao and others, but told them to be careful if they really encountered rebels.
Please notify them immediately, they will definitely bring the rebels to justice!
After leaving Inazuma City, Su Hao and Ella did not say much.
Jiuqi Shinobu took a deep look at Inazuma City behind her. At this moment, she felt something inexplicably.
At this moment, there was a voice in Inazuma City that was misleading the people's cognition.
