Kiana and the Captain's Bizarre Adventure

The battle against the gods was undoubtedly a failure; Kong was defeated after only a few rounds when he was pulled into an unknown space by General Thunder.

As Sora was defeated, the unknown space vanished. Paimon rushed forward and shoved Sora, who was lying unconscious on the ground, hoping to wake him up. Seeing this, Thomas quickly ran to a spear and used the blade to untie the ropes binding him.

As General Thunder approached step by step, Paimon grew increasingly anxious. But no matter how Paimon called out to him, Kong showed no signs of waking up.

Finally, the Thunder General arrived in front of Kong and raised his sword. In that instant, a streak of crimson lightning flashed across the sky, startling the Thunder General, whose sword, which was halfway through its swing, instantly changed direction.

Suddenly, a person wearing a large cloak that completely concealed himself appeared in front of the empty space. Accompanied by the sound of clashing weapons, the mysterious person's knife collided with the knife in General Lei Dian's hand.

A tremendous shockwave erupted from the point where the two weapons clashed, blasting the unconscious Kong and Paimon towards Thomas's location. Had Thomas not caught them in time, they would likely have been sent flying even further. The mysterious man's cloak was also damaged.

In an instant, the cloak was blown away by the strong airflow, revealing the mysterious man's true face. The next moment, the whole place was in an uproar, and General Thunder, who was facing the mysterious man, showed a shocked expression.

Thomas, who had originally planned to escape with Kong, was now stunned and stood there, his mind blank.

"How...how is this possible! You, you are...?!"

Under the surprised gaze of General Thunder, the mysterious man forcefully forced him back, while retreating to the position where Thomas was.

"What are you all standing there for? Get out of here!"

Thomas, who had been awakened by the mysterious man, helped Sora up and headed towards the wooden tea room. Sora, who was regaining consciousness, seemed to see two lightning generals confronting each other.

a few minutes ago.

Wearing a cloak, Mei finally arrived at the designated location and successfully reunited with Kiana and the others. After a long wait, Mei finally saw Kiana, whom she had been longing to see, but the captain was not there.

Although she had already learned about the captain's situation before, Mei still couldn't help but feel a sense of loss now that it was finally happening.

"...So, do we really have to do this?"

Mei looked at everything that was happening at the ceremony and asked, "Now I finally understand why my appearance caused such a commotion in Inazuma Castle."

General Raiden's appearance was indeed very similar to hers. If this weren't their original world, Mei would have thought she had a long-lost twin sister.

Kiana nodded: "Based on the information Fu Hua unexpectedly obtained from Yae no Miko, a member of the Thunder General's retinue, we can deduce that the current Thunder General might be the second god. However, after these days of investigation, we know that the Inatsumi people are unaware that their god has changed. If our guess is correct, then the first Thunder God must have looked very similar to the current Thunder God; otherwise, it would have been impossible to achieve the feat of deceiving everyone and making all the Inatsumi people believe that their god has never changed."

Mei took a deep breath and said, "I understand, I will do as you say."

And so the scene just now unfolded, with Mei appearing at the critical moment to save Sora from danger, and at the same time confirming something.

That means Kiana's guess might be true, and the current Thor might indeed have a sister who looks very similar to her.

Back to the present, after seeing Thomas completely disappear from sight, Mei manipulated lightning to strike the Thunder General. While everyone was covering their eyes and the Thunder General was stunned, Mei retreated, leaving behind only a mess.

"General, what happened just now..."

A guard cautiously approached General Thunder and asked him a question. General Thunder, who had already recovered, glanced back at the guard and snorted coldly.

"Bring them into the Eye Hunt Order, and I will cut them down again. As for the person who looks exactly like me, give me the order to bring him to me alive at all costs. Remember, I want him alive!"

After saying that, he turned around and went back into the castle tower, leaving everyone standing there panting.

No one noticed that the moment General Thunder turned around, her eyes dimmed, and her pupils quickly filled with sadness. She stared blankly at her hands, letting her body move forward instinctively, and murmured, "Sister, are you really my sister...?"

After shaking off their pursuers, Toma took Sora back to the wooden tea room. Hearing the commotion, Ayaka Kamisato quickly came out and took the two inside.

"What was that just now? How could there be two generals, and they're facing off against each other!"

"I didn't know about this either! As a woman from Inatsuma, this is the first time I've ever heard of two generals."

During Thomas and Paimon's conversation, Ayaka Kamisato pieced together the entire sequence of events that had just occurred.

"You mean it was someone who looks very much like the general who saved you just now?"

"Yes, yes! Just when Sora was defeated by General Raiden and on the verge of death, a mysterious person in a cloak appeared and saved Sora's life. Then the cloak was blown away, revealing a face that looked almost exactly like General Raiden..."

Just as Paimon was excitedly explaining what had just happened, Sora finally regained full consciousness.

“He looks almost exactly like the General. I think I remember something.” Ayaka Kamisato recalled, “I think I once read in an unknown history book that the Thunder God Baal was originally a dual-deity. After a dark calamity five hundred years ago, one of the twin gods was lost, leaving only one to inherit the divine position.”

"Is this...is this real?"

"I don't know. After all, there's only ever one general in front of Inatsuma-hito. The events in that book are too absurd for Inatsuma-hito, so I've always treated the history in that book as just a story. However, it's true that the general's personality changed drastically after the calamity five hundred years ago. Perhaps..."

Just then, a commotion broke out outside the door. Soon after, the door was opened, and when Ayaka Kamisato saw that the person who came in was "General Raiden," her expression instantly became flustered. Sora also summoned his weapon and stood in front of Ayaka Kamisato and Thomas.

"General... General, this... this is!"

"General? I think you've misunderstood. I'm not your general." The "Lightning General" standing at the door walked in and closed the door behind her. "Hello, my name is Raiden Mei, and I'm the friend Kiana and the others mentioned."

"Mei, what are you doing at the door?"

Kiana's voice rang out from the doorway, and realizing that the Thunder General in front of her was the person they had just been discussing, the entire space fell silent for a moment.

"So, you mistook Mei for the Thunder General who tracked you here, and you were just about to fight back to the death?"

After some explanation, Kiana made a conclusion that made Sora and the others blush.

"Who knew the person who came really wasn't General Raiden? But your friend really does look exactly like General Raiden. No wonder you said Mei's appearance wasn't suitable to be mentioned, especially since Mei's surname is Raiden, which symbolizes the god..."

This time, Kiana and the others were in an awkward position. After all, based on what they had said before, they actually knew that Mei looked exactly like General Raiden. But Kiana and the others chose to keep it a secret.

"Fine, whatever your reasons for not telling us the truth, I'll forgive you this time since you saved Kong's life!"

After a brief pause, Ayaka Kamisato stepped forward and said, "Miss Raiden... Mei, thank you for your help. I am deeply grateful."

Judging from her expression, Ayaka Kamisato was still somewhat unaccustomed to speaking to Mei in her usual tone, but despite this, she still offered her opinion.

“Now there are people chasing you everywhere. Thomas is lucky that he can hide in the Wooden Leak Tea House to avoid being caught, but Kong can’t. You still have an unfinished journey to complete, don’t you?”

He nodded in agreement.

"Therefore, I suggest you go to Hachiyun Island to find the resistance army stationed there. There you can choose to join the resistance army or leave Inazuma through the resistance army. Either choice is better than staying here. As for... Miss Mei, because of your special appearance, I still suggest you hide with Thomas in the Wooden Leak Tea Room. Unless the general himself comes, ordinary soldiers cannot force their way in."

Unlike Sora who listened to her opinions, Mei simply shook her head and rejected Ayaka Kamisato's suggestion.
