"Huh? What's next? Hasn't the Vision Hunt Decree already stopped? What else do I have to do?"
Lumine looked at Durandal in confusion. She accepted the commission to help fight the Vision Hunt Decree. Now that the Vision Hunt Decree had stopped, what else did she need to do?
"Inazuma's problems are not as simple as just the Vision Hunt Decree. For now, you don't need to worry about the Tenryou Commission; they will handle their internal issues. The main problem is the Tenryou Commission, especially its leader, Kujou Takayuki. He has big problems."
Through the data from the sacred sakura tree, Durandal understood Kujou Takayuki's actions: corruption, colluding with the Fatui, and generally not doing anything proper.
Simply put, it was like, "I only care about making money and securing power. I don't care how chaotic things get below me in the company. Anyway, the boss will clean up my mess in the end. Even if I get caught, I'll still brazenly say, 'My boss is omnipotent; she can definitely fix this mess with ease and then forgive me with a smile.'"
Such a person never did anything substantial. Currently, Raiden Shogun's side had already begun investigating him. The Sara she trusted should assist in the investigation, and she believed that relevant news would emerge soon.
"The Tenryou Commission? What does that have to do with me? That's an internal Shogunate problem; they can just solve it themselves, right?"
"Yes, the Shogunate can handle its internal matters. But what about the matters outside the Shogunate? Currently, there are many problems within Inazuma that need to be resolved. Among them is the abnormal energy I mentioned to you last time, and the other is the Sangonomiya Shrine rebels on Watatsumi Island."
With the Vision Hunt Decree lifted, those who fled there for refuge due to the Vision Hunt Decree should almost be returning to Narukami Island.
However, the people of Sangonomiya Shrine would not stop just because the Vision Hunt Decree was abolished. They might have initially caused trouble because of the Vision Hunt Decree, but as time went on, their desires grew.
Not only did the people of Sangonomiya Shrine not want to stop, but the Fatui were also stirring up trouble. From what Durandal understood, the Fatui had caused a lot of trouble in secret. It would be very difficult for the Shogunate to handle it in the short term, so they needed helpers to share the burden.
Given Lumine's personality, she would definitely help deal with these matters. Of course... the premise was that the Reward had to be sufficient; she wouldn't help without a Reward.
"You mean the Fatui? That's right, the Fatui are active in all Seven Nations. Given their modus operandi, it's within expectations for them to cause trouble in Inazuma."
Those people even dared to cause trouble in Liyue, let alone Inazuma, a place with a terrible atmosphere. Previously, they had cooperated with the Tenryou Commission and the Tenryou Commission to implement various things; the Vision Hunt Decree might even have been their doing.
Now, because of Durandal, the Vision Hunt Decree was canceled. The Fatui were probably anxious. It was no longer feasible to cause trouble through the Tenryou Commission or the Tenryou Commission, so they could only act on their own.
According to Durandal's guess, Inazuma would likely become lively in the coming period, with many incidents caused by the Fatui.
"Oh~ I understand. So... there will be many commissions waiting for me to complete, right?"
"Yes, that's right. Just like the things you did in Mondstadt and Liyue, you just need to accept commissions and collect Rewards. Other things are basically unchanged."
"Hmm, I'm familiar with this. Hehe~ Whether it's the Fatui or any other commission, I'll complete them well. For the next while, I'll explore around Inazuma and find all those treasure chests to open!"
New places and new treasure chests awaited them. They wouldn't be bored for a long time to come.
"What about you? You'll be acting with us, right?"
"Occasionally, and I might also deal with some problems. For example, the abnormal energy we encountered before. It's safer for me to handle that kind of thing. Don't accept those commissions, understand?"
Even Lumine couldn't be exposed to too much of that curse-like toxin. Durandal allowed Lumine to challenge formidable enemies, but for something like that, it was better left to her, The Expert.
Hmm, Durandal's concerns were not unfounded. They had also witnessed the power of that energy; just a tiny condensed bit was so terrifying. It was hard to imagine what close contact would be like.
"Besides these, do you plan to do anything else?"
"Find someone, a certain woman. I've been looking for her for quite some time. According to that old man, she's currently in Inazuma."
At this point, Durandal's eyes became fierce. The desire to kill someone cannot be hidden, especially such murderous eyes.
Shenhe didn't quite understand the situation. When she heard Durandal was looking for a certain woman, she initially thought it was someone like Venti, but seeing her expression, she realized the situation seemed different from what she imagined.
Just then, a bird flew in from outside and landed on Durandal's shoulder, chirping at her.
"Hmm, I know. You did well, little one."
She hadn't expected the Intelligence Agent she had just recruited in Inazuma to send back news so quickly. It was truly a pleasant surprise.
Giving the bird a little life energy as a Reward, Durandal stood up and went to the bedside, ready to leave.
"Durandal, where are you going?"
"Where am I going? I'm going on a date with someone."
Durandal turned her head, a strange smile on her face, her pupils turning a seductive red, her aura completely different from usual.
Normally, if Durandal said something like that, Lumine would definitely tease her and ask more questions, but seeing Durandal's expression, she didn't dare to be as presumptuous as usual.
"H-have a safe trip."
Lumine probably knew who Durandal was going on a "date" with. It seemed someone was going to have a terrible night.
