Genshin Impact: This light novel author doesn't cross the line.

Seeing how confident Yingmei was, Ueno Chiki felt that she should be able to catch a lot of fish. "Good luck. If you catch a lot, we can have a whole fish feast tonight."

"Alright, Qian Shu, you just stay home and wait to prepare a whole fish feast!" Ying Mei strides confidently toward the small river not far away.

Chiki Ueno wasn't idle at home either. She went to the small field to pick a lot of side dishes for the whole fish feast, washed, chopped, and sorted them, just waiting for the fish to arrive so she could cook the dishes right away after processing them.

However, neither Yingmei nor Paimon, who had gone with her, returned by sunset.

He couldn't sit still any longer and walked straight towards the river.

Five minutes later, he arrived at the riverbank, and the scene before him left him utterly speechless.

Yingmei was leaning against the riverbank, her eyes closed, her breathing slow and deep, seemingly completely immersed in a dream world, while her fishing rod had long since slipped into the water.

Paimon was also fast asleep.

Wow, those two are so unreliable.

Seeing that it was getting late, Ueno Chiki realized it was too late to go fishing, so he rolled up his trousers and stepped into the river.

The river water was cool and clear, and he felt a refreshing coolness.

He carefully searched the riverbed for clams, shrimp, and snails, and soon he was lucky enough to receive a gift from nature.

He found the clams, shrimps, and snails one by one and then threw them onto the riverbank.

Suddenly, he saw two crabs baring their teeth and claws. Without hesitation, he used both hands to quickly grab the backs of the two crabs, giving them no chance.

Next, they found two thin blades of grass by the river and tied them together.

Looking back at the river clams, shrimps, and snails that had come up, the quantity was about right.

He prepared to wake Yingmei, who was fast asleep on the riverbank. The afterglow of the setting sun slanted across her face, making her look quiet and lovely, like a flower lazily blooming.

Just then, she suddenly murmured, "No, I'm already full, so full I'm about to overflow."

Ueno Chiki:..........

Chapter 38 You Will Become the Executor of the Fools in the Future

After waking up Yingmei and Paimon, who were fast asleep, Ueno Chiki returned home and began preparing dinner.

Spicy shrimp and snails, stir-fried river clam meat, steamed crab, and vegetable soup.

The aroma of the dishes wafted over, and Yingmei and Paimon couldn't help but drool from the corners of their mouths.

"Let's eat!"

Ueno Chiki's words were like a battle cry, leading them to eagerly enjoy the delicious food.

Yingmei picked up a piece of clam meat and put it in her mouth. The delicate and soft texture and refreshing taste made her feel extremely satisfied and happy.

"That's fantastic!" she exclaimed sincerely, her eyes sparkling with excitement and satisfaction.

Take another bite of the spicy shrimp and snails, wow, sku, just as delicious.

Meanwhile, Paimon beside her was engrossed in eating.

Seeing that the two were about to finish the food in one go, Ueno Chiki immediately joined the fray.

But his speed was too slow; he was no match for Yingmei and Paimon. He didn't even manage to catch a single crab leg from the steamed crab.

And so, dinner came to an end.

After eating and drinking their fill, Yingmei and Paimon lay lazily on the mat, not wanting to move at all.

He looks no different from a disabled person.

"I'm going out for a bit, you all should get some rest."

"Ah."

......

When Ueno Chiki arrived at the secret hideout of the Fools, which he had visited before, the lady was reprimanding several of her subordinates.

Her brows were furrowed, and she looked quite displeased.

"Don't mention funding to me again. The organization is currently facing a severe shortage of funds, and I hope everyone can work through this. During this period, anyone who performs well will receive a significant promotion from the organization. It just so happens that Inazuma is short of a supervisor."

Upon hearing this, all the members of the Fools present immediately perked up and began to pledge their loyalty one after another.

"Madam, please rest assured, we will definitely complete the task you have assigned us."

"I am willing to starve to death for Her Majesty's supreme ideals."

"I don't care about funding at all."

"........"

The woman was very satisfied with everyone's response, and her brows immediately relaxed. "Now, report on your recent work progress."

The group, who had been full of ambition just moments before, immediately deflated. Their work efficiency had been very low recently, and they had made virtually no progress.

However, what needs to be reported still needs to be reported.

As the woman listened to each report, her face turned ashen. She longed to burn all these worthless people alive.

Fortunately, her rationality stopped her in time. If she really burned all the useless people in front of her to death, then there would be no one to do the work.

Her complexion only improved when Ueno Chiki came up to report on the work situation.

"Code name 9527, well done. I never expected you to become a traveler's partner. She is the Fool's chosen one. Keep it up, and the organization will definitely not treat you unfairly."

"Madam, my work has progressed so well entirely thanks to your wise guidance. Without you, I would be like a headless fly, completely clueless about what to do. You are the sun in my heart!" Ueno Chiki's eyes were clear, and her tone was both sincere and exaggerated.

The woman looked at him with great admiration, finding him more and more pleasing to the eye.

Sigh, if everyone had the same level of awareness as codename 9527, Winter would have unified Teyvat long ago.

She secretly decided that once Inazuma's matter was settled, she would promote him to head of Inazuma's Fools' Clan.

"According to the plan we and Haizhi Island have made, there will be a major operation soon. You must do everything you can to create chaos."

Chiki Ueno, who was familiar with the original plot, knew exactly what the plan was.

He stole a glance at the woman, his gaze lingering on her full breasts for a moment, and sighed inwardly, "What a pity."

Such a brilliant play may never be seen again.

The lady's plan was simple: to have the Fools and the Sea Island rebels create chaos in Inazuma Castle, thereby coercing General Raiden to hand over the Heart of God.

However, she never imagined that after the talisman on Hachiyū Island was destroyed, Sango Mikoto had already decided to abandon the cooperation with the Fools and instead cooperate with the Shabu-gō (shrine magistrate) and the Narukami Taisha behind it.

Therefore, her plan was doomed to fail from the very beginning, and she would become a victim of the Thunder General's blade after losing the duel in front of the emperor.

"The rest of you can leave first. Code name 9527. You stay behind."

The other members of the Fools quickly left the room, leaving only the woman and him.

Ueno Chiki was terrified. The woman before her, though alluring and beautiful, was actually ruthless. And to make matters worse, she was the author of "Her Husband Is Soft and Powerless..." If the woman found out, she'd be chopped to pieces.

"Extend your hand!"

He heard a woman's somewhat cold voice beside him.

Without any hesitation, he decisively extended his right hand.

At that moment, an evil eye emanating a strange aura fell into his hand.

"Code name 9527. This Evil Eye is not a low-grade product made for Sea Island, nor is it a mass-produced product from Winter. It is a high-grade product personally made by the Second Seat Doctor of the Fools' Clan. Using it can grant the power to control flames. As long as it is not overused, it is almost harmless to the human body."

Then, the woman explained in detail to Chiki Ueno how to use the Evil Eye.

This advanced evil eye is almost indistinguishable from the eye of God. As long as one's will is transmitted into the evil eye, one can control a considerable amount of fire power.

Of course, this evil eye is very different from the evil eyes worn by the young master and the lady. Their evil eyes were infused with the power of the Winter Queen. The former helped the young master control lightning after he activated the Demon King Armor, while the latter gave the lady the ultimate power of ice, which could imprison the ever-burning fire of the Flame Witch.

"You'll have to figure out the specific methods for using it yourself, but remember one thing: never overuse the Evil Eye unless it's an emergency. Overusing power that doesn't belong to you will ultimately bring disaster upon yourself."

Ueno Chiki felt a chill run down her spine, and couldn't help but think of the fate of Sergeant Teppei on Umijima Island in the story.

The evil eye in his hand suddenly became a little hot.

"Work hard! I have high hopes for your future. Perhaps one day you will become the Executor of the Fools!"

Chapter 39 Greyhound

In the stillness of the night, amidst the darkness, Ueno Chiki walked home.

As he walked, he pondered what the lady had said to him.

Become an executive officer of the Fools?

After considering it for a while, he abandoned this bold idea.

The Fools' Executors do receive very good pay, but their KPI performance evaluations are too strict. The tasks they perform are either extremely immoral or life-threatening.

His wish has always been to live a peaceful and tranquil life, writing the novels he loves. If he's lucky, he'll marry a gentle and kind girl.

Upon thinking of this, the face of a girl immediately appeared in his mind. It was Yoomiya, but then the girl's face changed to Ayaka Kamisato. However, this was not the end. The girl's face finally settled on becoming Yingmei.

He slapped his forehead hard. "Damn it, am I going crazy? How could I have thought of Yingmei?"

Yingmei treats him like a brother, but she actually has feelings for him.

Moreover, in his past life, he always put himself in Yingmei's perspective.

He recalled the absurd and forbidden dream he had before; it was truly bizarre.

Soon after, he returned home.

Yingmei lay sprawled on the mat, fast asleep, completely lacking any ladylike demeanor.

I would like this guy? Ridiculous!

Putting aside his random thoughts, he fell into a deep sleep.

.......

The next morning.

Based on the information provided by Ayaka Kamisato, the three arrived at a kendo dojo called Meikyō Shisui-ryū.

A young man and woman stood in front of the door, dressed in kendo uniforms with samurai swords hanging from their belts, but their faces were full of worry. When they saw the three approaching, they immediately placed their hands on the hilts of their swords, their muscles tense, and watched the three of them warily.
