The castle tower is very quiet at night. The area is heavily guarded, and not far from here is the headquarters of the Tenlords, the seat of the Kujo family. If something goes wrong here, they will be responsible for guarding Inazuma Castle and The Heavenly Leader of the main force of the castle tower can send troops to support as soon as possible!

At this moment, after passing through the heavy protective barriers, the sights of countless soldiers standing in the light and hiding in the dark were focused on the deepest and highest room of the castle tower.

The large and bright Japanese-style room now opens all the Japanese-style sliding doors around it. The summer breeze blows from the sea outside Inazuma Castle, skipping the beach and mountains, and blows upward along the cliff of Inazuma Castle. Finally, It turned into wisps of breeze blowing into this room.

It seems to be extremely close to the moon here. Looking from the window on one side, the vast moon seems to occupy the entire field of vision. You can clearly see even the crater above!

In front of her desk, a dark shadow was still busy there. The halo of the candlestick in front of her reflected on her face, revealing a fair and pretty face. A pair of bright almond eyes were examining the official documents in front of her very seriously. Her long, bright purple hair flowed down her back.

She is the true manager of the Inazuma Shogunate, and is known as the Thunderbolt Shogun!

Blow by the sea breeze, the glistening hair and the papers on the table moved slightly at the same time. Without noticing, several pieces of paper on one side of the completed document were blown away.

"ah......"

She was just about to reach out to grab it, but unfortunately the speed of the sea breeze at night seemed to be faster than she thought. It felt like the papers would float out of the castle tower and fall below in just the blink of an eye.

However, suddenly a thin, white hand stretched out from the side, and very dexterously used its slender fingers to grab back the papers scattered in different places.

Seeing this, I felt relieved and took back my hand.

"Sorry to trouble you, Shadow."

The woman known as Shadow slowly raised her head, revealing the same face as the woman at the desk. She raised her red lips and said slowly:"Sister, it's late at night now, you should rest."

Ying said and smoothly closed the sliding door behind him and put the paper in his hand back into the distance.

Then he sat down on the side of the desk, some distance away.

"Um?!"

"Is it already late at night?"Zhen Zhen raised her head and looked around in confusion. Following her movements, the bones in various parts of her body made continuous rattling sounds.

In her feeling, she had just eaten dinner just now, and there was still a lot of noise around her. Bright, why do I feel like it gets dark every time I lower my head and then raise my head? Are the moon and stars around me coming out? The soft moonlight has replaced the blazing sunlight during the day and has become the main light source in this room, dotted around it. The light of the small lanterns and candlesticks is vaguely integrated with the surrounding starlight.

"It’s already this time"

"There has been a bit too much work lately."

Zhen sighed with emotion, stretched his waist and moved his slender fingers, and then picked up the pen again to prepare for work. Apparently, he had no intention of stopping.

When Ying saw this scene, he frowned unconsciously.

"Sister, you should be a little bit......."

Dong Dong -

However, before Ying could speak, there was a knock on the door and the voice of someone outside the door making an announcement.

"Sir General, Sir Kujo Sora wants to see you. Hearing this, Zhen turned his head and said with a gentle smile:"Well, come in.""

"Yes, sorry."

Pull it - the door was opened from both sides, and Kujo Sora appeared in front of her.

She still looked so majestic, she walked forward and glanced at the room.

It was still the same as when she had just left. , there was only the general in front of the desk.

When he came to the desk, Kujo Sora was saluting.

He made a gesture of no courtesy, and then Sora reported:"Sir General, tonight's defense change and inspection have been completed. Yes, there are no mistakes or problems."

"Well, thank you for your hard work."Zhen smiled and nodded.

"But Shanluo, you are really serious enough. I obviously leave this matter completely to you, and you don't have to come to me to report every time."

I'm really not blaming Shanluo, but I am sighing at the seriousness of the person in front of me.

"This is not okay. It is my job to confirm the safety of the General again and again."Kujo Sora shook her head and immediately refused.

She came not only to report on her work, but also to confirm the general's safety with her own eyes.

Although according to the general's martial arts, no one should be able to threaten her.

"Really......"Zhen could only face this with a smile, and it was for his own good. After all, unlike his younger sister Yingke, his fighting power was not very high!

Hey, if someone can use their own weapons, that's a different matter.

Of course, no one knew about his low strength.

There are two piles of documents in front of Zhen Zhen. Not only are they not smaller than this morning, but they are even more. Obviously, there are many things that need to be dealt with at this juncture.

Especially the issue of monsters

"General, is it really still a question of troop strength and the sacred cherry tree?"

Kujo Sera doesn't need to look carefully to know what these documents are about.

"Oh, you are right, everywhere is asking for more troops, more budgets, and more sacred cherry trees."I really looked very tired and sighed.

"Obviously there are no extra troops in the capital now, only a few elites, and apart from the one managed by the family in the city, the only sacred cherry tree left is the main tree in Yingxiang Mountain, and the rest have been distributed......."

Of course, Kujo Sora knew the reason why these people asked to increase this or that. It was because they were afraid of death. At the same time, they also thought that if the shogunate collapsed one day, they would only need to rely on the troops and materials in their hands, plus the ability to support the barrier. If I use the sacred cherry tree to save my life, I can continue to live peacefully in this troubled world.

It is even said that he can annex surrounding forces to expand his territory. Maybe he can become the next shogun?

"These people only think about their own safety and never consider the overall situation!"

Kujo Sora frowned tightly. Her originally very delicate and beautiful face looked very fierce now. Her hands curled up on her thighs were tightly clasped, and the veins on them bulged slightly, making a slight popping sound. Although she wanted to We need to go back to the front line, but now there is no one to guard the capital!

We can't let the general who is still correcting official documents work part-time to patrol near Inazuma Castle, right?

"Okay, Sanluo, there's nothing you can do if you're angry, after all, this is the way of the world."Obviously, I have seen what these people are trying to do, but now I can only choose to continue to drag it out.

Otherwise, if the monsters from the outside are not eliminated, and if civil strife breaks out, then this land will become completely transformed in a short time. A deserted wasteland with no one in it!

"It's getting late, you should go and rest."

Zhen chuckled and waved his hand, ready for Kujo Sora to retreat and rest.

".......yes."Kujo Sora took a deep breath, relaxed his clenched fists, let out a light breath, and bowed his head in salute.

"Then I will take my leave, General, please rest as soon as possible."

"Um."Zhen agreed gently, but in a blink of an eye he lowered his head and continued working, obviously with no intention of resting.

After Kujo Sora left here and there was no one else around, Zhen was ready to call out the shadow that had been hiding in the dark.

"Okay, there's no one left, let's take a look."

"........"However, Shadow did not respond and did not appear.

I felt really strange. I raised my head again and looked at the place where Ying often sat on his knees.

"film?"

But that place is still empty at this moment. Obviously, the shadow is no longer nearby......

Sven walked into the castle tower. He didn't even think about hiding. He boldly ran in from the eaves.

Facing the hordes of shogunate soldiers, he chose the stuck perspective.

He followed a group of patrolling soldiers openly, looking curiously at the surrounding buildings as they walked, as if this group of patrolling people were leading the way for Sven and were his guides.

When encountering other patrolling soldiers, Swain kept changing his perspective, standing sideways behind the other soldiers, adjusting his position according to the field of vision of the people on the opposite side, so that he was always in the blind spot of everyone's vision. In addition, this The soldiers dressed in black, leaning against the lantern in their hands for illumination, would not even notice that these black figures were individuals.

It is even said that in the eyes of some people, Sven is just the shadow of those soldiers illuminated by the moonlight and projected on the wall or in the trees, and there is nothing worth paying attention to.

Using this sightseeing-like method, Sven easily arrived at the gate of the castle tower.

There are more fixed posts here, and the same method is not easy to use, so Swain found two unoccupied places, easily climbed over the high wall and directly entered the hall on the first floor of the castle tower.

It's pitch dark now. Obviously no one is here, and there are no guards inside.

"It seems that this is a place used for daily receptions and meetings, or banquets."

Sven took two steps toward the house from the window, but as Swain walked into the farthest and top position, the position belonging to the general.
