Many weeks have passed since the Sakoku Decree was abolished in late January as Lucius and Paimon overheard rumours of a festival happening soon in Inazuma.

The two budding travellers approaches Katheryne in the Adventurers' Guild after hearing of a commission specifically for them.

Lucius: Hey Katheryne, you said that you have a new commission for us?

Katheryne: That's correct. There's a requester who has submitted a designated commission for the two of you.

Lucius: Designated commission?

Katheryne: Hehe, there's no need to worry. This commission is not dangerous by any means. Perhaps you have heard that Inazuma will soon be holding a major festival — the "Magnificent Irodori Festival."

Lucius: We've heard rumours of a festival happening soon, we just didn't know the name.

Paimon: Come to think of it, we haven't attended a festival in Inazuma for a while. Last one we attended was back in September of last year!

Katheryne:  The Yashiro Commissions and Lady Yae are responsible for all the festival preparations. The one who has requested your help is none other than Lady Yae herself.

Lucius: Ah, so it's her commission.

Paimon: Hehe, you know Miko... She always has some unusual ideas in her head. You can bet a festival planned by her is gonna be one to remember. We'd better go to Grand Narukami Shrine and see what she needs us to do.

Katheryne: Lady Yae is currently at Yae Publishing House in Hanamizaka, so there's no need to go all the way to the shrine. In fact, she has instructed me to have you directly meet with her there.

Lucius: Oh, okay, let's go.

Not far from the Adventurers' Guild was Yae Publishing House. Yae Miko is shown to be talking to her editors.

Yae: Aratani and Kuroda, how are things coming along?

Aratani: All the books and commissioned prints for Yae Publishing House were bound and sent out yesterday afternoon, Lady Yae.

Yae: Very good. And Murata?

Murata: We have already received word from Eipekkusu and Sailing Breeze that the materials are all in place for "Shogun Almighty: Reborn as Raiden With Unlimited Power" and "Pretty Please, Kitsune Guuji?"!

Yae: Well done. And what about you, Onodera?

Onodera: ...

Yae: Ahem. O—no—de—ra?

Onodera: Oh, uh, yes Lady Yae! Everything is ready for the new issue release party.

Yae: You are the one who organized the plans for this release party. In other words, you are the team's fearless leader now. So please, show some confidence. Besides, there's no need to be nervous. This project is destined for success, I feel quite optimistic about it.

Yae: I shall specially grant you leave for the next couple of days, Onodera. Please take the opportunity to have a good rest. After all, you will be very busy on the day of the release party.

Onodera: Yes, Lady Yae. Thank you very much!

Yae: Alright then, is everyone clear about their assignments? Good. We are running out of time, so let's get moving! Chop chop!
