Genshin Impact: Starting Guide - End of the World Qi Bao

Page 78

Kiana thought for a moment. This was her first time eating with Kage, and she couldn't leave a bad impression. Cooking was too much trouble, so she'd leave it to the Captain. Anyway, Kage and she had already cooked the rice, and the Captain would definitely be impressed. Kiana continued.

"We'll have the captain cook later; he's a great cook. It's your first time here, so please have a good taste. We'll start learning to cook tomorrow."

Ying agreed from the side.

"Okay."

Ying readily agreed, recalling how she had watched the real cook before, but unfortunately, she couldn't understand it. "This rice dish is surprisingly simple," she thought. "Just put the rice in, fill it with water, and put the lid on. It's not as difficult as Shenzi made it out to be." Ying then asked.

"Kiana, why do you call yourself 'Sword Master Juexi'?"

Kiana thought for a moment and figured she could talk to Shadow about this, so she replied.

"Because the captain and I came to Teyvat from another world. In our original world, the captain was, uh..."

Kiana thought for a moment and continued.

"Just like a general in the army, captain is just a title. I'm used to calling him that, hehe."

Ying seemed thoughtful. "Sword Master? A general in the army?" That made sense; after all, his sword was truly formidable. But "general" didn't quite fit. Jue Xi seemed more like a highly talented recruit with little combat experience. The rice cooker beside him grew louder and louder. Ying had a bad feeling and instinctively wanted to move away from it. Ying asked Kiana again.

"Miss Kiana. This... won't the rice cooker explode?"

Kiana was also a little confused, as this thing hadn't been this loud before.

"Probably not..."

Jue Xi also realized something was wrong. He had looked for the two of them but couldn't find them anywhere except the kitchen. On his way to the kitchen, Jue Xi thought, "Qi Bao, Qi Bao, why did you go into the kitchen with Ying?"

Kiana also sensed something was wrong, so she pulled Ying away from the kitchen. As soon as they stepped out of the kitchen door, they ran into Juexi, and Kiana greeted her somewhat guiltily.

"Um...(。???)ノ? Hi~ What a coincidence, Captain, are you here to cook?"

Jue Xi squinted and carefully examined Kiana, asking her in a tone that suggested leniency for those who confess and severity for those who resist.

"Qibao, you didn't sneak into the kitchen, did you?"

Kiana also explained the truth to Juexi...

"What! Ten bowls of rice?! And filled with water?!"

Kiana asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Isn't that right?"

Jue Xi said.

"The ratio of rice to water should be 1:2. Also, the amount of rice will increase after cooking. If there are ten bowls like the one in our rice bag, it should yield about twenty-six or twenty-seven bowls of cooked rice."

Kiana, somewhat lacking in brain capacity, fiddled with her fingers.

"One, two, ten, twenty-six, why is cooking rice so troublesome?"

Juexi was speechless for a moment, leaving Kiana behind, and went straight to the kitchen. Juexi thought to herself that she needed to unplug the power first. As soon as Juexi entered, the rice cooker, as if fulfilling its final wish, saw its owner one last time, and then exploded...

BOOM~

After a loud bang, Ying came to the conclusion that it really was going to explode.

Kiana immediately went into the kitchen to find Juexi and asked her with concern.

"Captain! Captain, are you alright?"

Jue Xi wiped the mixture of rice and water off her body and said in a helpless tone.

"Qibao, promise me you won't go into the kitchen again, okay?"

Kiana answered shyly.

"it is good......"

Jue Xi also kicked the two out of the kitchen, and used her powers to make a new rice cooker to cook dinner...

At the dinner table, Kiana sat in the middle, with Juexi on her left and Ying on her right, looking absolutely stunning. To Juexi's left was Qiqi.

Qiqi sipped her coconut milk, while Wendy drank her wine. Watching this large family enjoying their meal together, Ying felt a pang of melancholy. She wondered what Shenzi was doing at this moment. That girl… was probably eating fried tofu while blaming herself for not being with her.

Meanwhile, the goddess was eating fox ramen (which has fried tofu in it) at a food stall, complaining as she ate.

"That guy Ying is really something, so clueless about romance, humph."

At this moment, a demon also arrived at the food stall, and the divine child became interested upon seeing this.

"Hey, you weird kid from the Oni clan~ wanna have a match with me?"

The demon man looked at the fox-eared woman with a puzzled expression and asked.

"You recognize me?"

"I don't know you, but... are you scared?"

"afraid?"

The demon man also spoke loudly.

"Do you think I, the greatest fighter in the world, am afraid of a vixen like you?"

The goddess looked at him and found it amusing, and said with a smile.

"Impolite, yet you are the wise and beautiful Yae no Miko."

Araki Ichito also said impatiently.

"You vixen, what are you going to compete in? I won't lose to you."

"Let's have a contest to see who can eat the most of this fox ramen, shall we? Strange kid, the loser has to pay for both of our meals!"

Araki Kazuto looked on with disdain.

"With your small frame."

No sooner had Ichidou finished speaking than the Divine Child ate a bowl of noodles in a few bites.

"Strange kid~ Want to race? If you're scared, just say so~"

"joke!"

The demon, barely alive in the final battle, won the match (he was allergic to beans). The shrine maiden, smiling, paid for the thirty-two bowls of noodles and returned to the shrine.

......

After the group finished eating, Jue Xi started cleaning up the kitchen. During the cleaning process, a sudden system notification sounded.

"Host, the Traveler Luminous and Paimon have arrived in Inazuma. The Liyue mission is complete, and rewards are being calculated."

"Oh? Yingmei, how come you got here so quickly?"

Jue Xi was a little confused, but it wasn't a big problem. Her reward was finally coming.

The reward is 14,000 points, and the current points amount to 44,000.

"Why are you giving so much at once? But this number is a bit unlucky."

The system complained.

"Okay, I'll give you less next time."

Absolutely ridiculous and evasive.

"What I mean is that you should just give me 400,000 directly, that would be auspicious."

The system remained silent for a moment before continuing its broadcast.

Reward 2: Revive any one person.

Jue Xi was shocked. This is different from the resurrected Valkyrie!

"System, does this include myself?"

"No, host, you will not die at all. This reward can revive any Valkyrie or any person on Teyvat."

Speechless.

"That's no fun."

Reward 3. Randomly summon a Valkyrie from an unknown era, who will arrive in Teyvat.

"That's great. If Mei comes out, my Qibao will be so happy."

The system reminded.

"Unable to summon now."

"why?"

Reward 4: One chance to travel to a Honkai world, in an unknown time period.

"Huh? Another time travel? I don't have a mission this time, right, system?"

"There is no mission, host. This opportunity to travel through time is an extra reward to make up for the extra points I asked for last time. It's compensation."

"That's right, when will this time travel take place?"

"When you wake up and open your eyes, you will appear in a new world. When you are in the Honkai world, time in the Teyvat world will stop."

Jue Xi was somewhat impatient.

"Alright, alright, I know, this isn't the first time. By the way, System, can Kiana come with me?"

"Host, your puppet will travel with you."

Jue Xi clicked her tongue.

"Don't put it so harshly. Wait, is Rosalyn coming along too?"

Chapter 110 In the Extreme Cold

The system replied.

"That's right."

Jue Xi shook her head helplessly.

"Rosalyn is so weak, if she went to the Honkai world with me, she probably wouldn't even know how she died."
