Chapter 259: Chapter 258 But... is it really appropriate to give him so much money all at once?

But... is it really appropriate to give him so much money all at once? And she would give it to him every month. This... this...

"It’s just small money. If I wanted to get this Mora, I could get it in a few minutes, so there’s no need to be so nervous."

There were too many rich people, and even more rich people who were afraid of death. As long as Durandal gave them a little treatment, millions, or even tens of millions, of Mora would be a matter of minutes, so there was no need to care too much.

Just... just small money? Hearing this, Yae Miko couldn’t help but swallow, barely suppressing the urge to rush over and hug Durandal’s thigh.

It’s not that she’s greedy, it’s just that Durandal’s thigh is really great. She not only has the strength, but also gives her subordinates such good treatment.

Look at her, as Raiden Ei’s familiar, when has she ever had such treatment? It’s really infuriating to compare people to each other, making her want to jump ship.

"Cough! Cough! That’s not the point. In short, I can’t agree to your request. Please make another request."

Putting the bag in Hanachirusato’s arms, who was at a loss, Durandal narrowed her eyes and said in a low voice: "Really can’t? Yae Miko, I’ll give you one more chance. Really won’t agree."

"...I’m sorry, I really can’t agree to this request."

Is it coming? Is she going to get rough? Yae Miko was very nervous. Someone who could easily crush even the Raiden Shogun, Yae Miko didn’t think she could deal with.

But she was gambling, betting that Durandal wouldn’t dare to make a move here. You must know that in addition to the Shrine Priestesses who are working daily, there are also people who come to worship outside.

If Durandal made a move here, she would definitely be seen by those people. If she was seen by people, her future actions in Inazuma would be restricted, and it would also implicate Hanachirusato.

Durandal shouldn’t want to do that, right? Yae Miko was betting on this possibility. At most, she would get beaten up. She could endure it!

Confirming that Yae Miko was not prepared to give in, Durandal snorted softly: "If possible, I don’t want to use this trick. Since you’re so uncooperative, I can only do this."

Under Yae Miko’s vigilant gaze, Durandal closed her eyes and spoke to Raiden Makoto, who had been watching for a long time.

[I’ll leave the rest to you, Raiden Makoto. No need to discuss Hanachirusato’s matter, just do what you want. After a long absence, you must have a lot to say to him, right?]

[Okay, I understand.]

Seeing this, Raiden Makoto understood Durandal’s purpose.

How should she put it? Although she was being used, she was not repulsed. Durandal was doing this for Hanachirusato. Since it was for someone else, Raiden Makoto had no reason not to cooperate.

Having had the previous experience, this time the connection work was even smoother. Raiden Makoto easily took over Durandal’s body.

When Durandal opened her eyes again, the aura on her body completely changed. In order to distinguish the situation, Durandal specially changed her eyes to Raiden Makoto’s purple eyes.

"Long time no see, Shrine Priestess (Head Priestess)."

"This... this kind of tone, and this kind of feeling, no... impossible, how is this possible..."

This so gentle gaze, and this feeling, there was no mistake, there would definitely be no mistake. Back then, when she was unable to transform into a human form, she had been sticking to Raiden Makoto’s side, and her knowledge of her was no less than that of Raiden Ei.

But... it was because she was too familiar that she was unwilling to believe that Raiden Makoto, who had clearly died, would appear in front of her again.

No, in fact, she didn’t appear. The person in front of her was still Durandal, but everything other than the appearance had completely changed.

Her brain completely crashed. Her usually clever mind was completely unable to function at this time, and she could only watch as the other party came to her, put his hand on her head, and gently stroked it.

Since Raiden Makoto’s death, no one has been able to do this to Yae Miko, not even Raiden Ei.

She should have jumped up to resist, but the other party’s actions were the same as before, causing Yae Miko’s expression to soften involuntarily, like a small animal, actively rubbing against Raiden Makoto’s hand.

"Makoto... Makoto..."

Yae Miko made a soft sound, and the emotions that had been suppressed in her heart for hundreds of years gradually released, making her unable to control herself any longer, choosing to follow her heart and do what she wanted to do.

Under everyone’s gaze, her body began to change, turning into a small fox, nestling in Raiden Makoto’s arms, just like she used to, enjoying his caress.

"What exactly is this..."

Hanachirusato, who had been watching the whole process, didn’t understand what was happening at all. What exactly was going on? Why did it become like this?

Did... did he see something he shouldn’t have seen? Would he be silenced?
