Previously, Raiden Ei had specially cooked for her to apologize, but what was the result? If she weren’t Durandal, with millions of deadly bacteria in her body, she probably would have lost half her life.

It’s confirmed, this fellow didn’t come to apologize to her at all; she wanted to assassinate her, to regain Raiden Makoto’s soul through such a method.

Ever since coming to Inazuma, the people and things here had constantly tormented Durandal, making her feel exhausted and raising her blood pressure.

Noticing Durandal was on the verge of losing control, Lumine and Shenhe stepped forward to comfort her. Durandal gestured for them to stop, then turned to look at Raiden Makoto’s soul beside her, letting out a soft hum.

With a wave of her hand, an exquisitely shaped... coffin (?) rose from the black mist. The lid opened, revealing Raiden Makoto’s body lying inside.

Then, Durandal roughly grabbed Raiden Makoto’s soul, stuffed her into the body, and then began the so-called fusion ritual with a spell.

Just before Raiden Makoto’s consciousness was about to fall into a deep sleep, Durandal suddenly reached out and grabbed the body’s head, then pulled outwards, and a sakura-colored halo was drawn out from within the body.

"Eh? This... this is, consciousness?"

Yae Miko, skilled in placing consciousness into objects, recognized the true nature of the halo in Durandal’s hand and couldn’t help but exclaim.

Durandal ignored her, took a piece of God flesh from her storage space, and then, under everyone’s gaze, the God flesh continuously transformed in her hand into a miniature Raiden Shogun doll, about the size of Paimon. Durandal even made an outfit for her.

(The Indestructible: Have you seen videos of the mini Raiden Shogun? It’s a similar feeling.)

Under everyone’s gaze, Durandal placed the consciousness she had pulled from Raiden Makoto onto the small doll, helping it fully integrate into the doll’s body.

Having done all this, Durandal quietly observed the doll’s condition, seemingly waiting for something.

Many guessed what Durandal was doing and were somewhat anticipating whether Durandal would succeed.

After roughly less than thirty seconds, the small doll, which had been keeping its eyes closed, slowly opened them, human-like, rubbed its eyes, and looked around in confusion.

"Has the fusion been completed? Why does it feel strange somewhere? Am I not awake yet?"

As her brain gradually cleared, Raiden Makoto slowly realized what had happened. Looking at the "giant" in front of her, she widened her eyes, her face filled with disbelief.

"This... what exactly is this..."

"I extracted your consciousness separately and housed it in this temporarily created body. How do you feel? Is there anything uncomfortable about this body?"

Because it was only consciousness, the creation process was not so troublesome. Durandal only spent a few tens of seconds to complete the body’s creation.

Now the soul is within that body. When the soul is fully integrated into the body, her consciousness will automatically return to the body, and this temporarily created body will also dissipate into light particles in this world, having completed its mission.

"I feel fine. Aside from being completely unable to use element power, there’s nothing uncomfortable."

"I made this in a few tens of seconds. You want to use element power? You’re dreaming."

No matter how powerful she was, it was impossible to create such a powerful body in such a short time, and still want to control element power? Even in dreams, you wouldn’t get that.

Raiden Makoto moved her body slightly. Aside from being short-limbed, there was nothing uncomfortable.

"Oh my~ Such a cute Makoto!"

Seeing such an adorable Raiden Makoto for the first time, Yae Miko couldn’t resist. She immediately stepped forward, hugged her, rubbed her cheek, and showed a brilliant smile.

"What are you doing? Shrine Priestess! How rude! Quickly put my sister down!"

"Oh? You say that, but you’re drooling. You actually want to do the same thing, don’t you?"

"What? You... you’re lying! Shrine Priestess!"

Hearing Raiden Ei say she was drooling, Raiden Ei even seriously wiped the corner of her mouth, but there was nothing. It was clear that this cunning fox was tricking her, deliberately saying that.

"Oh~ Just a little joke, I didn’t expect you to react so strongly. What? You’re not really envious of me, are you?"

"Shrine Priestess..."

This fellow... she would remember this grudge! When the time was right, she would return it all to this annoying fox!

"Wait, Shrine Priestess. Put me down, I have something to say."

"Oh, okay."

Yae Miko obediently put Raiden Makoto down.

She could tease Raiden Ei, but she wouldn’t do so to Raiden Makoto. After all, Raiden Makoto was her master, and it was only natural for her, a little fox, to obey her master’s commands.

Raiden Makoto took her tiny steps to Durandal, formally performed a dogeza, and as others looked on in confusion, she raised her head and said,

"Thank you for once again fulfilling Ei’s willful request, Durandal. You have already done so much, yet you specially took the effort to do this step. I truly appreciate it."

Attaching Raiden Makoto’s consciousness to this temporary body was not part of the original plan; it was entirely an impromptu addition by Durandal due to Raiden Ei’s earlier behavior.

It was completely unnecessary, yet because of Raiden Ei’s words, this segment was specially arranged.

Raiden Ei, who was currently bickering with Yae Miko, was stunned upon hearing this. She... she did this for herself?

Facing everyone’s gazes, Durandal snorted softly: "You always overthink things. I just didn’t want her constantly asking me when you’d wake up while you were asleep. This has nothing to do with her."

After speaking, Durandal was the first to walk out of the Tenshukaku. Shenhe and Paimon quickly chased after her. Lumine, the last to leave, patted Raiden Ei’s shoulder, gave a strange smile, and then followed.

"Oh my~ It seems our Lord God owes more and more to others, to the point where it’s unpayable."

Yae Miko fanned the flames from the side. This time, Raiden Ei didn’t bother with her, but instead pondered her words, nodding.

"Yes, the favor I owe her... is already unpayable."
