"I really didn't expect that the skirmisher would find out from somewhere that I gave you the Heart of Thor."
"I really didn't expect that he would slaughter that entire village just to lure you out."
After Yae no Miko finished speaking, she became increasingly uneasy, because Lin Jiu'an was still smiling, nodding slightly with each of her sentences, as if to say, "Keep making things up, let's see what other tricks you can come up with."
"I did not lie to you."
Yae no Miko looked at him with a hint of resentment.
"Or do you intend to torture and kill me like a stragglers?"
"Are you willing to?"
Lin Jiu'an didn't answer, but instead smiled and pointed to the dirty fried tofu on the ground.
"eat."
Yae no Miko's expression froze for a moment, then he chuckled awkwardly, "I'm not hungry."
"Not hungry?"
It was still the same smile, only a little brighter, but Yae no Miko felt that his smile had suddenly become terrifying.
"I've been waiting for you for so long, and I've made you this big meal out of kindness."
"If you don't eat, you're disrespecting me."
"If you don't give me face, it means you don't want to be my friend."
Lin Jiu paused for a moment, then said quietly, "The last person who didn't want to be my friend has become a stepping stone."
Yae no Miko felt a chill run through her body, and even her fox fur stood on end.
"Then, if I eat them, will you forgive me?"
"Let's talk after we eat."
Yae no Miko gazed at him with a deep, melancholy look.
After a long while, he sighed, revealing a sorrowful and resentful expression, and finally squatted down on the ground to pick up the fried tofu with his hands.
—Try to think more positively. Before I became a palace priest, when I was just a little fox, I would often accidentally knock over my bowl and eat the fried tofu and mountain fruits that fell on the ground.
Just as Yae no Miko was trying to comfort herself, she heard a man's voice coming from behind her again.
"The fox obediently carried it in its mouth."
What do people use their hands for?
The Eightfold Goddess slightly clenched her fist, her beautiful eyes darting towards transforming into beastly eyes, but only for a fleeting moment.
Right.
Yae no Miko, you are a fox, not a human. This is not a big deal.
Yae no Miko finally knelt on the ground, sticking out her round, peach-shaped buttocks wrapped in her shrine maiden outfit, and swaying her tailless rear end like a dog as she savored the fried tofu on the ground.
When she finished eating those few pieces of fried tofu and stood up, she still had that gentle, mature older sister smile on her face.
"Can we have a proper talk now?"
"Go ahead."
Yae no Miko didn't say anything more, but instead reached into her robes and pulled out the Heart of Thor from her chest.
“You killed the stragglers, and you wiped out the magistrate.”
“I have sent people to tell them not to touch Shinsuke Hiiragi; he will remain kneeling there.”
"Aren't you calmed down now?"
Under the gaze of Yae no Miko, who was almost terrified.
Lin Jiu'an took the Heart of Thor. He used his fingers to pry open his chest and stuffed the Heart of Thor inside.
Then, as life force surged, the bloody wound on his chest slowly closed.
Lin Jiu'an shook the bloody flesh in his hand as if nothing had happened, then looked at the Eightfold Divine Child whose smile was already somewhat forced, stood up, and walked towards her step by step.
Yae no Miko forced a smile and subconsciously backed away.
She forced a smile as she bumped into the wall and saw Lin Jiu'an's outstretched hand.
The hand wasn't fast, and it didn't use any elements. Even an ordinary human girl could have dodged it, but Yae no Miko was so frightened that she was a little flustered. Looking at the outstretched hand that still had her own flesh and blood on it, she could only barely maintain a polite and charming smile.
"Can you be a little gentler?"
"I fear pain."
Lin Jiu'an placed his large hand on her face and grabbed her cheek.
Amber eyes met purple eyes, both looking at the smile in Lin Jiu'an's eyes.
Yae no Miko is currently feeling regret.
regretful.
If she had known there would be a second life, she would never have given up and tried to smooth things over. She would have stood firmly on Lin Jiu'an's side even if it meant death. This man is just too terrifying!
Even a "PhD" is just an ordinary researcher in front of him!
The "scattered soldiers" looked like model students in front of him!
Seeing Lin Jiu'an cupping his face in his hands, and his face slowly approaching, the Eightfold Divine Child steeled his heart and slightly raised his face.
It seems I can't avoid this beating.
Just as Yae no Miko was waiting for the other party to kiss her and assault her, she waited for a while but there was no actual contact. She slowly opened her eyes and saw that the man's face was very close to hers.
That's the distance where the nostrils almost touch.
next moment.
Yae no Miko felt the hand that was grabbing her face suddenly move to her neck, and a strong feeling of suffocation surged up her head.
Yae no Miko made any struggle.
She couldn't even beat a skirmisher, let alone this complete monster.
She let Lin Jiu'an lift her into the air, looking at him with pitiful eyes, and didn't struggle even as the feeling of suffocation gradually made her suffer and her consciousness became blurred.
Just as Yae no Miko's consciousness was gradually fading, her eyes began to roll back, and she was uncontrollably sticking out her tongue and twitching.
"look at me."
Yae no Miko tried her best to look at the other person.
"Did you tell the skirmisher that the Heart of Thor was with me?"
Yae no Miko opened her mouth, but could not utter a sound. She could only shake her head weakly and painfully.
"No...it wasn't...me..."
Lin Jiu'an loosened his grip slightly.
Although it was still very painful, with a constant feeling of suffocation, at least I regained some of my ability to speak.
"For the sake of...Inazuma's...stability...I...did...stand by..."
"But...I...really never intended...to hurt...you..."
"Why...why...would I...harm you..."
"I...only want...you...to...leave...with...Ayaka..."
"I...didn't...expect...they...to...do...so...ruthless..."
"If... I... really wanted... to kill you... you... back then... couldn't get out of... Inazuma..."
The intense feeling of suffocation that was already choking me.
The fact that she had to speak further exacerbated Yae no Miko's suffocation.
By the end, her body was convulsing from the pain and suffocation. Her fox tail uncontrollably emerged from behind her back, her tongue lolled out weakly, and tears streamed from her alluring and passionate fox eyes. She could only manage to squeeze out two indistinct words from her throat.
"Trust...me..."

'Snap!'
Lin Jiu'an released his grip on the Eighth Divine Child's snow-white neck.
Yae no Miko fell limply to the ground, her voluptuous body making a beautiful sound as it hit the earth.
Hearing the rustling sound, Yae no Miko opened her alluring fox eyes, which were filled with pain, and looked helplessly at the man squatting in front of her. Her slightly pale face looked both tempting and pitiful.
"If you don't believe me, you can ask Sister Gan Yu."
"What I said is real."
Lin Jiu'an scoffed: "You don't need to keep mentioning Gan Yu in front of me."
"look."
"What happened between us before is no longer important. It's all in the past. What you did in the past doesn't matter either."
"The important thing is what you do afterward."
Yae no Miko bit her lower lip slightly, her amorous fox eyes filled with sorrow, looking at him as if she were a pitiful woman who had been used and abandoned by a heartless man.
"Then what do you want me to do?"
Looking at Yae no Miko's expression that said, "As long as you don't bully me, I'll do anything for you,"...
Lin Jiu'an smiled.
······
The candlelight flickered.
Coral Palace Heart Sea's breathing became somewhat rapid.
Suddenly, as if waking from a nightmare, she abruptly opened her beautiful eyes, her face still filled with lingering fear. She frantically grabbed at her surroundings, subconsciously checking her surroundings, and then saw a figure moving outside the candlelit window.
Coral Palace Heart Sea trembled as she exclaimed, "Who?!"
"Lord Coral Palace, it is I."
Hearing Goro's voice outside the window, Coral Palace Heart Sea breathed a slight sigh of relief.
"Why are you here?"
"I noticed that you, Lord Coral Palace, have seemed a bit uneasy lately, and my intuition made me worried about you, so I thought I'd come and keep watch for you."
"No need, this is the Coral Palace, I will be in no danger, you should go back and rest."
I opened the window and watched Goro leave.
As Coral Palace gazed at the distant sea against the oncoming sea breeze, her heart, which had been shaken by the nightmare, finally began to calm down somewhat.
She's been having nightmares for quite some time now.
It was fine at first.
Having received news from Ayaka Kamisato about Lin Jiu'an's actions in Mondstadt and Liyue, she was somewhat worried, but actually quite optimistic... or so she thought?
However, after hearing about the "massacre at the port" incident a few days ago, Coral Palace Xin Hai was completely panicked.
Although the Heavenly Commander did not reveal the identity of the murderer.
However, by combining the clues, Coral Palace Xin Hai could easily deduce that the murderer was Lin Jiu An.
She had expected Lin Jiu'an to seek revenge, but she never imagined that Lin Jiu'an would resort to such radical methods.
In Liyue and Mondstadt, he only 'retaliates' after someone has offended him!
This made her lose interest in reading military books that she had always enjoyed, and she had nightmares every day. Even when planning battles, she often couldn't calm down and made many plans that she later found foolish.
However, it also benefited from that "massacre of people leaving Hong Kong".
The impact of the extermination of both the main clan and the subordinate clans of the Kanjō-bō, one of the three magistrates, was too great.
For a time, everyone in Inazuma's other family members felt insecure.
Many of the troops under the Tenryo Regulations were transferred back to Inazuma's homeland from the battlefield due to public opinion and self-preservation pressure, in order to search for the vicious criminal and protect their safety.
