Chapter 141 - Chapter 141: The Chosen Salaried Worker, Huh!

Lord Shura Anyakonsen-shou had no intention of carrying out any political or governmental reforms in Inazuma.

For one thing, he was only half-knowledgeable in this area and didn't understand much about it. The issues he had just debated with Her Excellency the Raiden Shogun were ones he had discussed in advance with the head of the Kamisato Clan.

The second reason—honestly speaking—no matter how perfect a political system might be, its executors are ultimately human. And humans have both good and bad among them. Even the best system will inevitably fall into corruption when faced with greed; the only things that can be done are to constantly shut it down and restart, or to be more diligent and frequently scan for and eliminate viruses.

Thus, regarding the matter of subsequent development, Lord Shura Anyakonsen-shou could only recommend making government affairs more transparent, and that Her Excellency the Shogun should go out and take walks from time to time when she has nothing to do.

However, perhaps because Lord Shura Anyakonsen-shou was the first person in several hundred years to explain these things to Her Excellency the Shogun.

At this moment, in Her Excellency the Shogun's eyes, the status of Lord Shura Anyakonsen-shou underwent another change.

A greatly upright citizen recognized by Celestia + knows a lot + is willing to remonstrate with her + recognized by Rex Lapis of Liyue + Liyue's judicial Illuminated beast, the Pixiu = Celestia-appointed, Rex Lapis-approved perfect chosen salaried worker for governing the nation.

"Then the following affairs will be entrusted to you. If you encounter any resistance, I will help you cut it down."

Her Excellency the Raiden Shogun said this, her tone extremely serious.

Under the stacking of multiple buffs, the middle-aged uncle who had become the external brain of the Raiden Shogun was somewhat unable to understand what had just happened...

"Huh?"

The middle-aged uncle pointed at himself with his finger.

"Are you talking about me?"

Her Excellency the Raiden Shogun nodded and even issued a few more orders on the spot.

"No need to worry. Now in Inazuma, seeing you is the same as seeing me..."

At this very moment, in the fortune surrounding the middle-aged uncle—aside from the Rex Lapis cat-dragon excitedly punching the air in delight over its Archon—there was now also a calm and composed cute dango doll version of the Raiden Shogun.

"No, no, no, what I mean is, my status isn't suitable... I think the head of the Kamisato Clan or that Lady Yae Miko..."

This was getting a bit troublesome—this matter was completely outside the expectations of the middle-aged uncle and the head of the Kamisato Clan.

According to the predictions of the two of them, it would already be good enough just to persuade Her Excellency the Raiden Shogun. After persuading her, they could then slowly and subtly teach the Raiden Shogun how to handle politics so she wouldn't be deceived...

Now, suddenly having great authority placed in the hands of the middle-aged uncle was entirely unexpected...

And at first, when the Raiden Shogun heard about the head of the Kamisato Clan, her expression was still normal, but after hearing Yae Miko, her displeasure became visibly apparent.

"Lord Shura Anyakonsen-shou, your status is equal to that of the Guuji. There is no need to address her as 'Lady.' However, the head of the Kamisato Clan, Kamisato Ayato, has rendered meritorious service through his remonstrations, so in the future, arrange for him to serve as your deputy..."

Yae Miko, what exactly did you, that fox, do to Her Excellency the Shogun?

Why do I get the feeling that she seems to dislike you?

No wonder—I was wondering why you didn't show up for something as major as me coming to see the Shogun. So it turns out your relationship with the Shogun is pretty bad...

Faced with the willful and self-willed Her Excellency the Shogun, the middle-aged uncle clad in heavy armor couldn't really say much.

Changing the will of a god is still quite difficult; one can't rush it.

He needed to go back first and discuss with the head of the Kamisato Clan what to do next.

But no matter what, the current situation should still be favorable to the middle-aged uncle.

The Kamisato Clan has capable people who can get things done, Lord Shura Anyakonsen-shou has widespread popularity among the masses, and Her Excellency the Raiden Shogun has military might.

The opponents are merely the corrupt officials within the two Commissions.

The advantage is on our side!

Although Inazuma's situation isn't great at the moment, in the future...

It probably won't go wrong in the general direction.

Mm, there should still be a bright future ahead.

An AI that doesn't understand governing, a half-baked adventurer, plus the middle-aged clan head of a fallen family...

Sigh...

Inazuma's future should become better, right?
