Three days later, Takagi Akira, who had finally finished writing his latest book, dragged his heavy feet and left Yaedo with the farewell of editor Araya.

Gao Muming staggered back to the Mulou Tea House and looked around but didn't see Ying and Paimon.

After asking the clerk Shao who was guarding the door of Mulou Tea House, Gao Muming realized that Ying and Paimeng were just like him. They had left Mulou Tea House three days ago and had not returned until just now.

"That's strange. Ying and Paimon, who can move quickly via anchor points, haven't come back for three days. What happened to keep them so busy?"

After getting the news from Kozue, Takagi Akira frowned and thought about it. Combining the memories of the original gods in his mind with the people Ying had contacted in Inazuma in recent days, Takagi Akira figured out the reason why Ying had not returned for several days.

"It's very likely that Ying took the opportunity to go to Konda Village to do the Great Purification of the Divine Sakura that Hanasari asked her to do. As a mission that requires traveling across most of Narukami Island, it's reasonable that Ying took so long."

"I don't know how far Ying has come. Why don't I go directly to the seal of the main root of the Divine Sakura Tree at the foot of Yingxiang Mountain and wait to meet up with Ying to complete the final purification of the Divine Sakura together."

Just as Gao Muming was thinking this and walked out of the Mulou Teahouse, he saw Kujo Sara and a large group of Tenryo Bugyo soldiers coming towards him aggressively at the street corner not far away.

After seeing this scene, Gao Muming subconsciously retreated back to the Mulou Tea House.

"Looking at the black wings behind him, it's most likely Kujo Sara. Am I exposed?"

Gao Muming summoned his weapon and carefully stuck to the door to listen to the movements on the street. He only heard the sound of footsteps approaching and leaving in a hurry.

"It sounds like he's gone far away."

At this moment, the door of the Mulou Tea House was pushed open. Thomas, who was pointed at with a weapon as soon as he entered the door, looked at Gao Muming who was holding a weapon and looked alert, and quickly raised his hands.

"Don't be impulsive, we are one."

"I'm sorry, I just saw Kujo Sara leading the Tenryo Bugyo men coming over aggressively, and I had some stress reactions."

While apologizing, Gao Muming put the spear back into the space of God's Eye.

"I guess we won't have to worry about Kujo Sara causing any trouble for a while."

When Thomas heard what Gao Muming said, a hint of joy appeared on his face.

"According to the information I received, the shogunate army lacked God's Eye holders, and the top combat power was not as good as the Haiqi Island resistance army with many God's Eye holders, which led to the war being corrupted. As the general, Kujo Sara was urgently transferred to the front line."

“This should be considered good news for us.”

"What good news?"

As soon as Gao Muming finished speaking, Paimon's somewhat curious voice rang out.

"Oh, let's talk about how Kujo Sara, who was originally in charge of the Eye Hunting Order, will go to the Tatarashi Sand Front."

As Gao Muming spoke, he looked at Ying beside Paimon and saw that her face was not looking good. Recalling the ending of Hanasaka, Gao Muming slowed down his tone.

"You're back Ying, you've worked so hard."

"It's okay. It's not that hard. I just feel a little heavy."

Thinking of the shrine maiden Hanasari who had just disappeared in front of her, Ying looked at Takagi Akira with a somewhat depressed tone while speaking. From the exchange of glances, Ying realized that Takagi Akira was not in a good state.

"What happened to Gao Muming? You have dark circles under your eyes and you look very haggard."

Hearing Ying's caring words, Gao Muming's face showed a sad expression.

"Three days, three whole days. In order to prevent me from sneaking away and not writing, those unethical guys in Yaedo actually arranged three editors to take turns to watch over me 24 hours a day. They would not let me go until I finished writing."

"In order to get my freedom as soon as possible, I slept only 5 hours during the three days of coding."

After hearing Gao Muming's description, Paimon showed a look of fear on his face.

"It sounds like a terrible situation. Fortunately, I gave up the idea of ​​becoming a light novel author early on."

Ying spoke to Gao Muming with some heartache.

"You're already staggering just standing there, so stop forcing yourself to chat with us and go back to your room to get some rest."

Having said that, regardless of Gao Muming's objections, Ying very forcefully pushed Gao Muming, who was mumbling that he wanted to hear about Ying's adventures in the past few days, into the room.

"I will slowly tell you about my adventures over the past few days after you have rested well."

Under Ying's gaze, Gao Muming could only lie down on the bed obediently. As his mind relaxed, Gao Muming, who had been overworking his brain and suffering from severe sleep deprivation in the past three days, soon fell asleep.

After leaving the room, Ying looked at Thomas who was chatting with Paimon.

"Are you the only one here? Didn't Linghua come with you?"

In response to Ying's question, Thomas immediately spoke up to defend his young lady.

"I can't help it. Today is the first day of the celebration. The young lady has to deal with the trivial matters of the celebration and secretly prepare to fight against the Eye Hunting Order. She really can't spare the time to come."

"I also took the time to come to the Mulou Teahouse to inform you because I received information about the movements of Kujo Sara, who we are paying close attention to."

"celebration!"

Hearing the word "celebration", Paimon immediately perked up and looked at Ying beside him with anticipation.

"There should be a lot of delicious food and fun things at the celebration, right? Anyway, we don't have anything else to do right now, so let's go to the celebration and have a good time together."

Thinking of Gao Muming who had just fallen asleep in the room, Ying, who wanted to go to the celebration with Gao Muming, started to procrastinate.

"Aren't you still waiting for Gao Muming to treat you to a big meal with his royalties? When Gao Muming wakes up, let's go to the festival together."

Just as Ying was talking to Paimeng, Shao pushed the door open and handed a note to Thomas. Thomas looked at the contents of the note and a look of relief appeared on his face.

"We have finally acquired enough materials."

"Is something wrong?"

In response to Ying's question, Thomas sighed softly and began to explain to Ying.

"You've seen it on the outlying islands. Because of the isolation, the circulation of many commodities in Inazuma has become extremely difficult, making it much more difficult to obtain the materials needed for the celebration. This has added a lot of trouble to the work of our company."

"I just received news that a material that was in short supply not long ago has finally been purchased through multiple channels to make up for the shortage. However, I still have a lot of similar problems to solve, so I won't stay any longer. I wish you all a happy time."

After saying this, Thomas left in a hurry.

I don’t know how much time had passed. Gao Muming, who had a good sleep, just opened his eyes and saw Paimon floating beside him, staring at him without blinking.

Before Gao Muming could react to what was happening, Paimon happily flew towards Ying who was sitting next to him.

"Ying, Takagi Akira is awake, we can go to the celebration now, I can't wait, there are delicious food and fun things to do here."
