The Homeless Man of Teyvat

Chapter 263 The Man Behind the Scenes

"Are you sure these are the ones you've missed?"

"Sure."

"Fortunately, there is still a chance to save it."

Kamisato Ayato breathed a sigh of relief. In this situation, it was impossible for his sister to lie or hide from him. She was kind-hearted and not stupid.

Then the situation is clear. It is slightly different from what was previously expected. The Kamisato family does not only have a glimmer of hope. On the contrary, the palace secretary has fought for a smooth life for the Kamisato family.

It's just... Ayato Kamisato glanced at his sister and sighed: "Ayaka, from now on, you have to cut off all contact with Kaijijima and stay at home to think about your past. When the Lord of the Palace allows you to go out, you will be considered Lift the confinement. Do you understand?"

"...I understand, brother."

Kamisato Ayaka nodded, and then opened her mouth, as if she wanted to ask something, but didn't know how to ask.

"If you have something to say, just say it. At least in front of my brother, you don't have to worry too much."

After Kamisato Ayato finished speaking, he pondered for a moment, then turned to look at Toma, who had been kneeling silently: "Toma, please go get some paper and pen... get more, go ahead."

"...Yes, my lord."

Thomas bowed, stood up and left, sighing inaudibly the moment he closed the door. It was certainly right for him to help the young lady, but it was wrong for him not to inform the head of the family about the matter, especially something that was tantamount to rebellion.

Now it is reasonable for the head of the family to distance himself from him.

Thomas shook his head, not thinking about these sad things, whistled, and walked towards the warehouse where paper, ink, pens and inkstones were stored.

Kamisato Ayaka watched Toma leave, looked away, looked at Kamisato Ayato, pursed her lips and said: "Brother, I asked Toma to hide it from you, it's my fault."

"I guessed it." Kamisato Ayato's expression was calm.

"Then brother..."

"But that doesn't mean he's right."

"?"

"Ayaka, you have presided over many internal affairs over the years, attended various social occasions on behalf of the Kamisato family, and never failed to deal with those noble ladies. It is not easy to support the image of the Kamisato family by yourself."

Kamisato Ayato looked at his sister with approval in his eyes, and then changed his tone: "But all this is based on one foundation - you are the eldest lady of the Kamisato family."

There are many Kamisato and Inazuma families, but if we were to select the most noble ones, the Kamisato family would definitely be among them. Although due to some reasons, the Kamisato family suffered great changes in the generation of the Kamisato brothers and sisters, their power weakened, and they were even held accountable by the Shogun.

But as long as the shogun does not remove the responsibilities of the Kamisato family, and does not withdraw or deny the glory of the name "Kamiri", then in Inazuma, no matter who it is, must recognize the honorable position of "Kamiri".

Because this is the General's promise and a gift from God.

"Ayaka, you should understand that half of the reason why you can handle various social situations with ease is because your surname is [Kamiri]. If you are just [Ayaka], then at most you are just a powerful Eye of God Owners. As for the owners of the Eye of God, what can they do in the face of the power of the entire country during the Eye Hunting Order?"

"Because your surname is [Shenri], you have never really seen the darkness and injustice from the beginning to the present. Therefore, you have an extremely precious ice-cold heart and are innocent and kind. You are the perfect Princess Egret. "

Ayato Kamisato raised his hand to stop his sister who was about to argue: "Listen to me. But Thomas is different. He wandered from Mondstadt and stayed because of the favor of Kamisato's family. His job is to work with all kinds of people. Dealing with all kinds of people. He has already witnessed the injustice in the world, but he still faces it positively, which is amazing.”

"So, you may not be able to see the reality clearly because of a moment of weakness, and do some stupid good things, but it is impossible for Thomas to not see it, and even more aware of the consequences of this matter being exposed. So, why would Thomas hide it from me?"

"I have never doubted Thomas's loyalty. He never betrayed the Kamisato family during the most difficult period, let alone now."

Kamisato Ayato sighed and looked into his sister's eyes: "He did it for you, in order to prevent your ice-cold heart from being damaged."

If Ayaka is allowed to watch the tragedy happen, knowing clearly what she can do to prevent or delay the tragedy, but restraining her with cold and realistic principles, then the pure and innocent Princess Egret will be eroded by the filth of the world.

But who could have thought that the general would suddenly smash the castle tower and then disappear, and who would have thought that rumors would explode in an instant, without even a chance to recover. A series of sudden changes made things become what they are today.

But no matter what, it is an undisputed fact that the Kamisato family is guilty.

"...I understand, brother."

Kamisato Ayaka lowered her head. Although she felt that something her brother said was slightly wrong, it was better not to refute it at this moment - after all, she really did something wrong. This was an indisputable fact.

"What did you just want to say?"

Kamisato Ayato took out a cup of milk tea from the pocket in his sleeve and took a sip to moisten his throat. At the same time, he also consumed enough sugar to supply his brain.

Kamisato Ayaka pursed her lips and said, "Brother, what is the way for the Kamisato family to survive, Mr. Palace Secretary?"

"Wear a guilty body and wait for the consequences."

Ayato Kamisato put away the milk tea and lowered his eyes slightly: "From now on, before making achievements worthy of praise, the Kamisato family will never have the opportunity to make mistakes. If they are not careful, they will be doomed."

"..."

Kamisato Ayaka was stunned, her lips moved, full of apology and guilt: "I'm sorry, brother, I..."

"It doesn't matter. It's better than the Kujo family and the Hiiragi family." Kamisato Ayato thought for a moment and added, "Much stronger."

After the general returns, it's hard to say whether the Kujo family and the Hiiragi family can continue to exist. Compared with them, the Kamisato family will naturally be much stronger.

Kamisato Ayaka shook his head, and suddenly thought of something, frowning slightly: "By the way, Ayaka, how did you promote the rumor?"

"I didn't promote the rumor." Kamisato Ayaka raised her head and said: "But when the rumor first appeared, I delayed the speed of the community's magistrate to eliminate the rumor, which gave the rumor an opportunity to take advantage of it and it was out of control."

"...You didn't promote it?"

Kamisato Ayaka paused slightly, narrowed his eyes: "If no one promoted it, the rumor would not have spread so quickly throughout Inazuma."

"Brother means..."

Kamisato Ayaka is not a fool. After regaining her composure, she naturally understood what her brother meant and clenched her hands: "The rumor broke out, and there was someone behind the scenes? Who could it be?"

"Who else could it be? Once the rumor came out, except for that idiot Kujo Takayuki, the happiest people were naturally the people of Umijima." Kamisato Ayaka's face was slightly cold.

No wonder the chief priest emphasized that they should write down what the Kamisato family did. It turned out that the Kamisato family also helped others to take the blame.

"But the one who contacted me was Xinhai from the Coral Palace. She wouldn't do..."

"Just because she doesn't do it doesn't mean that other people from the Coral Palace won't do it either. Umi Island is not a monolithic entity."

Kamiri Ayato took a deep breath and looked towards Umi Island with a cold look in his eyes.
