Chapter 349

Yoimiya listened to what Yaoyao said and was immediately full of question marks.

Wait, can that really happen?

She knew that when she played with fireworks, sometimes she accidentally set things on fire, even her own home.

But she didn't dwell on it too much and instead turned her attention to Klee.

"Speaking of which, little Klee."

"Did you come from Liyue?"

"Did you arrive here on the big ship at the outlying island?"

Yoimiya was curious.

Many merchants arrived from foreign lands, bringing all sorts of news.

Most importantly, the news from Liyue intrigued her the most.

She had always admired the land of contracts, so she couldn't help but ask Klee.

Klee, hearing Yoimiya's question, nodded excitedly.

"Yes~!"

"That big ship belongs to Big Sister Beidou."

"Hehe~! It's massive."

"Sister Yoimiya, do you want to see it?"

"Klee can show you."

Klee looked at Yoimiya with sparkling eyes.

Hearing Klee's words, Yoimiya's eyes lit up.

"Big Sister Beidou?"

"You mean that ship belongs to Big Sister Beidou?"

Of course, Yoimiya knew Beidou.

In fact, they had a good relationship.

Klee nodded enthusiastically.

"Yes!"

"The boat is a new ship made by Brother Takumi for Big Sister Beidou."

"It can carry a lot of cargo!"

Klee gestured excitedly, her tiny hands moving animatedly.

Seeing her adorable expression, Yoimiya couldn't help but laugh.

"Alright!"

"Let's go to the pier."

Without another word, she stopped asking Klee about bombs and decided to go see Beidou's ship instead.

She left immediately.

However, the group of little girls around them quickly hopped onto their motorcycles and followed Yoimiya.

Seeing this, Yoimiya felt awkward.

She was the only one without a ride—how embarrassing.

She muttered to herself.

It seemed like these came from Takumi?

Well, next time she met him, she'd buy one for herself.

These things looked pretty useful.

And so, Yoimiya led a group of little girls to see Beidou's ship.

After all, she, Yoimiya, was the undisputed leader of children!

Meanwhile, Takumi remained unaware of all this.

At this moment, he had finished analyzing the power within himself.

He refocused his attention.

Ei, standing nearby, was filled with anticipation.

"How did it go?"

Seeing her expectant expression, Takumi nodded.

Then, he took out Musou Isshin.

"I can't revive your sister right away."

"But it seems I can heal her gradually."

"Though my powers are incomplete…"

"If I repair her slowly, it should work."

"At the very least, in a month, your sister's consciousness should fully awaken without issue."

Saying this, Takumi began.

A soft green energy flowed into Musou Isshin.

It nourished the consciousness within.

As Takumi continued, the blade trembled.

Suddenly, a surge of lightning burst forth from within.

Ei, sensing the power, shuddered.

"Sister…"

Wasn't this lightning her sister's power?

Her sister truly was inside.

Takumi hadn't lied to her.

But the power quickly faded.

Meanwhile, Takumi's energy continued pouring in.

Once he had infused as much as possible, he stopped.

"Not bad."

"From now on, just keep healing her every day."

After saying that, Takumi put the sword away.

This was the very blade Ei had drawn from her scabbard.

It was old and precious.

"Thank you!"

Ei looked at Takumi earnestly.

Then, she gave him a deep bow—the kind reserved for great gratitude in Inazuma.

Takumi had saved her sister's soul.

A debt like that was immeasurable.

If she had no other way to repay him, she could only offer herself in gratitude.

Or perhaps, in the next life, she would serve him loyally like a faithful servant.

Well, luckily, Ei didn't say that out loud.

Takumi chuckled.

"It's fine."

"Besides, Yae Miko already paid me."

"Unfortunately, my power isn't fully unlocked yet."

"Otherwise, I could restore your sister immediately."

Saying this, Takumi sighed.

That was the most frustrating part.

His power wasn't yet complete.

Ei shook her head.

It didn't matter.

As long as her sister could be revived, she would wait as long as necessary.

The two continued talking for a while before leaving together.

At this time, Keqing and the others had finished their discussions with Kamisato Ayato.

"Lord Raiden!"

Seeing Ei step outside, Kamisato Ayato immediately bowed.

Ei simply nodded.

She said nothing and quietly stood beside Takumi.

Takumi sat down, and Ei followed suit.

"Did you finish the negotiations?"

Takumi asked, looking between Keqing and Kamisato Ayato.

Hearing his question, Ayato nodded.

"Yes, I've already discussed it with Miss Keqing."

"Liyue will provide Inazuma with specific technologies to establish factories."

"Electrical crystals will be processed here."

"Once refined, they will be sold to Liyue at a fair price."

"Since Liyue is investing the technology, the agreement is mutually beneficial."

"Additionally, various goods from Inazuma will also be sold to Liyue at preferential rates."

The discussion had gone smoothly.

Ayato straightforwardly explained the details of their cooperation.

Beyond building factories, Liyue would also provide further assistance to Inazuma.

This would help improve daily life for the citizens.

Hearing this, Takumi nodded in satisfaction.

Ei also approved.

She knew exactly what Inazuma's biggest problem was right now.

If her sister were here, she would definitely blame herself for Inazuma's state.

Thinking of her sister, Ei felt uneasy.

"Aside from what Lord Kamisato mentioned,"

"Liyue and Inazuma have reached another agreement."

"Takumi, Inazuma needs the cement formula."

"They're planning major infrastructure projects."

"They will repair damaged roads and rebuild houses."

"This will provide jobs for Inazuma's citizens and stimulate the economy."

These were all part of Inazuma's cooperation with Liyue.

Liyue would provide technology, and Inazuma would handle production and distribution.

Hearing this, Takumi instantly understood what to do next.

"The formula is ready."

"Here, take it."

Takumi handed over the cement formula.

Now that the deal was finalized, it was time to deliver.

If all went well, Inazuma would enter a new era.

Infrastructure projects would soon begin.

Receiving the formula, Kamisato Ayato nodded.

After glancing at it, he carefully set it aside.

With this, many of their plans could proceed smoothly.

Inazuma was about to undergo major development.
