Although very busy, busyness itself has become a kind of routine.
The old uncle, along with little Sara and Mizuki, set off on the road back to the Kamisato Estate.
"Master, what did you and Miss Mizuki mean when you talked about the Shogun's change?"
Little Sara asked in mid-air.
The old uncle and Miss Mizuki's conversation had only avoided the Raiden Shogun; they hadn't hidden anything from little Sara.
"Oh, it's nothing much. It's just that there are still some aspects of the Shogun's Eternity that are hard to see through. Miss Mizuki and I were thinking about how to help the Shogun see them clearly."
Little Sara looked at her beloved master. Although she knew her master was telling the truth, she was certain he was still concealing something from her.
Miss Mizuki wanted to say something from the side, but seeing little Sara's serious gaze, she could only remain silent for now.
Finally, under little Sara's death stare, the old uncle could no longer keep looking at the scenery below his feet.
"Alright, alright, Sara. It seems you've really grown a lot. But let's save this topic for after dinner. The sky isn't exactly the best place to discuss political matters."
After all, expanding the Shogun's Eternity and changing the Shogun's Eternity were two entirely different things. One still made him an honest worker; the other would turn him into a rebel with treacherous intent.
By the way, the old uncle also needed to think about how to phrase things carefully.
And little Sara, who trusted her master deeply, also felt that the sky truly wasn't the place to discuss matters related to the Shogun.
"Master is right."
In the end, the three of them successfully returned to the Kamisato Estate. Considering that little Sara was probably anxious for answers,
Shura Anyakonsen-shou didn't go straight to the kitchen to give little Sara special treatment. Instead, he took little Sara directly to the study room.
Along the way, he also dragged out a certain little tanuki who was slacking off and hiding in the study room.
Then he closed the door and used Anemo energy to create a barrier, shaping a relatively private environment.
Facing her master's behavior like this, little Sara subconsciously thought of her adoptive father, Kujou Takayuki.
"Master, you haven't gone against the Shogun's Eternity too, have you?"
Facing little Sara's question, Shura Anyakonsen-shou instantly broke out in a cold sweat.
"Sara, don't say things like that carelessly. I've always agreed with the Shogun's Eternity."
Seeing her master's denial, little Sara believed him—her master wasn't good at lying anyway.
Facing little Sara, who sat upright and properly, Shura Anyakonsen-shou became unusually serious for once, displaying the dignity befitting Shura Anyakonsen-shou.
"Sara, what do you think the Shogun's Eternity specifically is?"
Facing her Shura Anyakonsen-shou master's question, little Sara fell into thought.
The Shogun's Eternity… isn't it just eternity?
Sara entered deep contemplation, but clearly, eternity was eternity—just as naturally as a chair is a chair and a table is a table.
"The Shogun's concept of 'Eternity' is hard to answer, isn't it? Although you're already in contact with it and understand what needs to be done, you still can't put it into words."
Little Sara nodded, falling into Shura Anyakonsen-shou's line of thinking.
"But little Sara, have you ever thought about why you know about the Shogun's Eternity? And how do you make it concrete enough to act upon it?"
When this question was asked, little Sara suddenly fixed her gaze firmly on Shura Anyakonsen-shou.
Because the answer was obvious: the current Inazuma, although functioning, was not directed by the Raiden Shogun—the one commanding it was Shura Anyakonsen-shou.
