[At the age of 23, on this night, you and Kamisato Ayaka had sex. In Inazuma, 16-year-old girls have reached the legal marriage age, and your bloodline has been separated by three generations, so there is no obstacle to your marriage.]
[——It should have been like this.]
[Just as Kamisato Ayaka was happily preparing for your wedding with her, and preparing to get married at the end of the year, the Thunder General in the castle tower issued an order -]
[Eye Hunting Order! ]
[Anyone who possesses the God's Eye must hand it over to the shogunate. If you refuse to obey orders, the shogunate will send troops to confiscate the God's Eye.]
[Although there are only a very small number of people in the entire Inazuma who possess the God's Eye, these very few people are often the upper echelons of a force. Coupled with the secret instigation of the Fatui, and the hundreds of years of feud between Kaijima and the shogunate, the entire Inazuma suddenly became chaotic.]
[The war began, and the people who suffered the most in the war were the civilians. Farmland was burned, food was looted, and many civilians fell into starvation.]
[But you were well prepared. When the Fatui came to Inazuma, you began to deliberately stockpile food. Now the food you have stored is enough for the civilians of Inazuma to eat for a year.]
[But you also know very well that you cannot directly open the warehouse to release the grain, because that would arouse the vigilance and suspicion of others, so you only release a limited amount of grain for disaster relief, which is enough to ensure that civilians will not starve to death.]
[The wedding that Kamisato Ayaka had carefully prepared naturally came to an end, but the kind-hearted girl did not complain, and instead quickly threw herself into disaster relief and comforting the people.]
[With the help of Kamisato Ayaka, you were able to get out of the heavy workload, and now you set your sights on the Sea Island.]
[24 years old, January, you know very well that the soldiers and civilians of Kaijima are not as kind as described in the main storyline, otherwise they would not destroy the talisman that suppresses evil spirits. In a sense, the sins they have caused may be more than those of the shogunate.]
[There must be an extremely warlike and crazy unit in the army of Haizhi Island. You sent a spy to find and contact this unit.]
[On the other hand, the war caused chaos. Although with your help, civilians would not die of hunger, the chaos still fostered evil desires in people's hearts. Many people turned to banditry and robbed houses. For a while, many sea demons and wild beasts appeared in Inazuma.]
[You sent out your secret army "Mob" to deal with these people. You killed the weak ones directly and recruited the stronger ones into your army. In a short period of time, your secret army increased to thousands of people.]
[You reorganized the "mob", with 288 of the original and most elite personnel as the backbone, and 13 holders of the Eye of God as leaders, and divided the "mob" into 13 troops. Their current main task is to fight against the Fatui, and their secondary task is to eliminate and recruit those who have fallen into depravity.]
[At the age of 24, in February, you contacted the radical army on Haizhi Island. At this time, your image was undoubtedly that of a madman who enjoyed destruction and war. This kind of you just fits the appetite of those people. After some negotiations, they are willing to respect you as their leader.]
[24 years and 3 months old. At this time, Inazuma has completely fallen into chaos. The Tenryo Bugyo and Kanjo Bugyo, who each have their own ulterior motives, no longer have the control they once had.]
[You were well prepared and took advantage of the situation to secretly take over the entire Inazuma grain trading market. In addition, you also occupied 90% of the current grain output share.]
[However, the people who know this information are either your confidants or have been killed by you. In the eyes of outsiders, you are still just an ordinary grain merchant.]
[In the past, the Tenryo Bugyo and Kanjo Bugyo looked down on you, thinking that you, a grain merchant, could not cause any trouble. But now that the entire Inazuma is in chaos, the role of grain is immediately apparent.]
[At the age of 24, April, you reduced the food supply to Haizhi Island by manipulating the food trade, causing Haizhi Island to suffer from food shortage.]
[At this time, you brought a large amount of food and found Sangonomiya Kokomi, who had become the "present-day divine priestess."]
["I can give this batch of food and fodder to Haizhi Island for free, but I have one condition."]
[The mask covered three quarters of your face. Your lips that were exposed curved up a little, and you said in a voice that made Sangonomiya Kokomi shudder: "I want to become the highest-ranking official on Kaizhi Island."]
[Sangonomiya Kokomi rejected you without a second thought, but when she looked at her subordinates for support, only Wulang and his men supported her, while the rest remained silent. On the contrary, a group of troops that had always been more radical clearly expressed their support for Yilan.]
[This is what human nature is like. When disaster strikes, only a few people can truly stick to their bottom line. The vast majority of people care more about their own survival and interests.]
[You lean forward and whisper in Sangonomiya Kokomi's ear in a low voice: "Miss Kokomi, you don't want your people to starve to death, do you?"]
[This is an unsolvable conspiracy. You, who control most of Inazuma's food, have actually manipulated this war.]
[You admire the despair in Sangonomiya Kokomi's heart sea's eyes. At this moment, you have undoubtedly turned into a demon.]
[So, from this day on, you became the highest-ranking official on Kaiji Island, second only to Sangonomiya Kokomi.]
[At the age of 24, in May, you began to gradually infiltrate your own direct troops, the "mob", into the Haizhi Island army. Because they were optimistic about your development and appreciated your methods, many down-and-out warriors and sects, and even some Vision bearers, joined you, and your power grew unprecedentedly.]
[Now you actually have the power to end this civil strife, but you know very well that if you end it here, it will only be a temporary solution and not a permanent solution. The real root of the trouble has not been removed, so you can't stop here.]
[A subordinate suggested to you that destroying the talisman on Yayun Island that suppresses the evil spirit of the demon god Orobas can cause great trouble to the shogunate.]
[You smiled and agreed to his request, but when he led his confidants to destroy the talisman, he discovered that Kamisato Ayato, the acting head of the community, was leading his troops to ambush there by chance.]
[You stabbed the long knife into his stomach with your own hands. In his dying moments, he looked into your eyes and seemed to have discovered something and wanted to shout out, but you did not give him the chance. You chopped off his head with one blow.]
[So the man who destroyed the town of Bayun Island and caused countless tragedies died in your hands.]
[After returning to Haizhi Island, you announced that the operation failed because there was a traitor among you.]
[You executed all those who knew the inside story of this mission, that is, those who were closely related to the person who wanted to destroy the town. Since then, almost all the radicals in Haizhi Island have been purged by you.]
[24 years and 6 months, as your power grew, you also caught the attention of some "interested people". The Fatui sent someone to contact you, saying that they could provide you with a tool that would quickly increase your strength.]
[Of course you know what that item is. You agreed to the deal with the Fatui and gave the evil eye to your warlike subordinates.]
[Subordinates who have obtained the 'powerful items' are more loyal to you, but on the other hand, this differential treatment has also caused dissatisfaction among the conservatives of Kaiji Island. The contradiction between you and the conservatives is getting deeper and deeper, and this is exactly what you want to see.]
[24 years old, July, everything is going according to your plan, and everyone is being played in your hands without realizing it.]
[However, you are well aware that there is an unstable factor in your plan. In order to resolve this unstable factor, you personally went to Narugami Taisha Shrine to meet with Lord Yae.]
[No one knows what you talked about with Yae Kamiko, but after the chat, Yae Kamiko personally escorted you out of Narukami Taisha Shrine.]
[However, when you were about to return to Kaiji Island, the two Fatui's executive officers, Sandrone and Madam, blocked your way.]
