"I will definitely come back!!!"
Then came the embers' loud shout.
Yae no Miko glanced at the general beside her.
Do dolls laugh?
After thinking about it, I think it's better to read these two chapters together.

Chapter 42 The Embers of Poverty
2023-08-28
"Is your general really this capricious?" Yu Jin asked, his voice slurred as he flanked Wan Ye on one side and Feng on the other.
It's impossible for the air not to leak in; the huge gash on his body runs from his neck to his crotch, almost splitting him in two.
Within the opening, the purple light continued to relentlessly destroy Yu Jin's body, demonstrating the power of a god.
"I don't know," Feng said with an embarrassed smile. He had only met General Lei Dian once, during the duel in front of the emperor just now.
"Sigh, what a hassle." Yu Jin sighed again. His wish to live a normal life in Inazuma seemed so far away once more.
On the shore of White Fox Wilderness, Yu Jin looked around at the deserted scenery and felt safe, so he put Wan Ye and Feng down.
"Hiss—, that's really impressive!" Yu Jin reached out and touched the wounds on his body, immediately feeling the lightning surging within him, and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
Lei's slash, amplified by divine power, was incredibly fast. Yu Jin didn't even have time to react before being pierced through.
However, Ember has also experienced situations that were ten or a hundred times worse than this!
He took out two bottles, one a red Dettol chalice and the other an elemental bottle.
"It's been so long since I've had this." Yu Jin looked at the familiar bottle and took a big gulp.
These two items were his weapons of war, but he hadn't used them for a long time since coming to this world.
Then, to the astonishment of Feng and Wanye, the gaping wound in Yu Jin's chest healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. And what was truly illogical was that the armor also healed as well.
"What are you planning to do in the future?" Yu Jin felt his body getting better little by little, so he turned his attention to Wan Ye and Feng beside him.
"Us?" Feng lowered his head and pondered, he had never considered the possibility of his own survival.
Now that he's actually been saved by Ember, he doesn't know what to do.
"Feng, let's wander together from now on." Wan Ye patted Feng's shoulder and said, seeing that Feng looked a little lost.
Manyo was a ronin himself, so he had a lot of experience in this area. He hoped that Kaede could find a new purpose in life during her journey.
“Yes, I’ve wanted to travel for a long time.” Feng was silent for a moment, then smiled and said to Wan Ye.
Feeling lost after your wish comes true?
They're just bored!
Yu Jin made up his mind and pointed at Feng's forehead. Seeing Feng's puzzled look, Yu Jin explained:
"Just now, I changed your future dreams. From now on, you can challenge the enemies I once fought in your dreams."
"Be careful, they're very strong." Ember chuckled mischievously to himself. He already anticipated how Feng would be utterly humiliated.
Feng touched his forehead, then his eyes lit up, "Senior's enemy?!"
"Yes, my martial arts were forged by them." Yu Jin nodded. Defeating them had cost Yu Jin his life many times.
"What about the senior?" Seeing Feng's renewed fighting spirit, Wan Ye became curious about where Yu Jin would go next.
How come I've never heard of such a powerful person before?
"Me? Saving up for the paperwork!" Yu Jin laughed loudly. Four million Mora, while a lot, isn't unattainable, is it?
"Is Senior short of money?" Feng came back to his senses and heard Yu Jin's grand wish to save money.
Yu Jin scratched his head, took out the leather bag at his waist, and counted the items.
It was empty. But that was normal, since Ember had recently given his remaining Mora to Washi.
He's been out having fun these past two days and hasn't earned a single penny. In fact, he's managed to provoke Lei Movie, though he doesn't know why.
As for the general, Yu Jin felt that he had taught her so much, he shouldn't have offended her in any way.
"I have some Mora here. If you need it, senior, you can take it." Feng saw that Yu Jin's leather bag was even cleaner than his face, so he wanted to give Yu Jin his Mora.
"Forget it, I have a proper job." Yu Jin refused. Feng and Wan Ye would be wandering around in the future, and they would definitely have more expenses than he did.
Furthermore, Ember doesn't need to eat or drink; his only expense right now is the rent he pays in Mondstadt. Therefore, he makes money very quickly!
"Let's part ways here!" Yu Jin thought for a moment. He had been in Inazuma for quite a while, and Ryota was waiting for him to go back and report.
Then he ran straight into the sea, where huge waves splashed up, soaking the stunned maple and leaves on the shore.
As expected of a senior, even the way he crosses the sea is so unique!
……
"Crack!" A campfire lit up in an abandoned hut, tiny sparks flying and illuminating Maple and Wanye nearby.
After a quick dinner, Feng couldn't wait to lie down. He remembered what Yu Jin had told him during the day.
"Hehe, Wanye, I'm going to fight now. Once I've learned how, I'll teach you." Feng chuckled and lay down.
Wan Ye looked at Feng, who was suddenly snoring, and his lips twitched. How come he hadn't noticed before that Feng fell asleep so quickly?
Meanwhile, Feng, who had just fallen asleep, found himself standing before a fog gate.
The fog gate was yellow and green. For some reason, the moment Maple saw the fog gate, an indescribable sense of oppression began to fill his heart.
"Phew—" Feng calmed his rapidly beating heart and then stepped into the fog gate.
"Thump~~" Feng was a little confused. Why did he seem to hear music? But he didn't care about that anymore. Because beyond the fog gate lay a vast world.
It felt like being underground, but light streamed down from the dome in the distance, illuminating this wide, flat area.
Looking further ahead, Feng was surprised to find that the cave was surrounded not by stone, but by wood—he was inside a huge tree hollow!
On the ground covered with small red and white flowers, a woman slowly walked towards Feng. With each step, a series of sharp, metallic "crackling" sounds rang out.
Feng turned his head and saw a red-haired woman whose winged helmet covered half of her beautiful face.
A bright red velvet scarf and a long linen dress were all she wore.
However, what concerned Feng the most was that the woman's arm and leg were metal prosthetics, and the ear-piercing sound was coming from these prosthetics.
Marlene, the Valkyrie, is one of the two offspring of a single deity and was born with a defect.
Michaela, the older brother, is forever young, while his younger sister, Malenia, is corrupted and parasitized. As a result, she was born blind and without one hand or foot.
Even so, she persevered and grew stronger, eventually transforming into the invincible "Valkyrie".
"Sizzle!" Just as Feng raised his blade, he saw his headless body—he had been beheaded.
"Ha!" After a moment of confusion, Feng suddenly came to his senses and returned to the fog gate.
Touching his collar, the feeling of being decapitated seemed to reappear within him.
"Damn it, I didn't see anything!" Feng was annoyed. It was too fast; he was killed before he could see anything.
"Let's see." Feng quickly composed himself and stepped into the fog gate again. He could always learn something from dying so many times.
Surprisingly, just as Feng was preparing to face death, Marlenia on the other side became completely still.
Feng seemed to sense something, and he tried to slash at Marlenia.
"Clang!" The prosthetic knife embedded in the limb precisely blocked his attack. Then, the same knife was swung out, but this time it was Marlenia who swung it.
"So fast!" Feng raised his sword to block, but the overwhelming power shattered the blade, and he was killed by Marlenia once again.
Having come back to life, Feng no longer felt the terror he had experienced before. He began to savor every detail of what had just happened.
"Is it the wrong angle?" Feng muttered to himself as he compared Marlenia's sword-wielding posture with his own.
He entered again and again, only to be killed again and again. Feng seemed tireless in his pursuit of knowledge from Marlenia, losing track of time.
"Oh no, I'm going to die again!" Feng thought to himself as he watched Marlenia's knife tip pierce towards him.
However, this time there was an unexpected turn of events; the knife tip stopped just before it pierced Feng's face.
"Is he here?" The woman in front of him spoke for the first time.
Feng suddenly felt that Marlenia was different. Just now she seemed like an inanimate object, but now she suddenly had the aura of a living person.
"Yes." Feng instinctively felt that she was referring to Yu Jin, so he gave an affirmative answer directly.
Then, he saw the woman across from him smile.

Chapter 43 The Leisurely Journey of the Supreme Will
2023-08-28
"Is this the border?" The Supreme Will looked at the sun in the sky and murmured to himself.
How long has it been since He truly came to this world? He doesn't know; He existed long before time itself.
The endless void is His dwelling place, and He has no interest in even the borderlands at the core of the world.
He simply left behind a wild beast, planted a seed, and that was it. There are many planets in this world, and many places He needs to watch over.
To his surprise, an existence capable of contending with Him appeared within the border region, which piqued His curiosity.
There are many Outer Gods, but the Supreme Will regards them as wild beasts, all that barks and howls, but when beaten, they can only whimper.
Only that guy, I think his name is Ember? We've clashed several times, both openly and secretly, and he's always been at a disadvantage.
However, this is normal. Since his original body did not come to this world, it is normal for him to be at a disadvantage when fighting against Ember.
