Genshin Impact, starting from becoming the God of the Ocean

"Actually, the general you see now is not the real Thunder General."

After Yae no Miko finished speaking, he wanted to see a look of surprise or confusion on Su Zhe's face, but Su Zhe just gave a faint "oh".

"Aren't you surprised?"

"An accident, so what? What does it have to do with me?" Su Zhe shrugged. "I'm just an ordinary Liyue person passing by."

"An ordinary Liyue person... Heh~ Then why did you save Wanye? Weren't you helping the resistance and Haiqi Island?"

"I've helped Kujo Sara and the Tenryo Magistrate before. Helping doesn't mean taking sides. To put it bluntly, it's about what you want to do. If you have the ability, you do it; if you don't, you run away. It's simple for me. Whether the Shogun you mentioned is real or not, she's a god. Gods are high above, while I'm just a nobody. I can't care about all that."

"A nobody?"

A mocking expression flashed in Yae no Miko's eyes.

"A dignified messenger of the wind god, a member of the wind god's family, an existence that Tianquan Ningguang cares about, Lord Demon God Kyogre, are you considered a nobody?"

Su Zhe was startled.

Oh no! My identity as a demon god has been exposed!

"Hehe~ Although some information is hard to find in Inazuma, it's not too difficult for me. During the Battle of Lone Cloud Pavilion, a mysterious giant whale attacked the Fatui with a turtle beast. After the Dragon Plague of Mondstadt, the Messenger of the Wind God and the Familiar of the Wind God disappeared at the same time."

"And, the Fatui followed a turtle-shaped sea monster to Inazuma, and you came, and Kyogre came too. No wonder I couldn't see through your true form before. After all, you are a dignified demon god, so it's normal."

Seeing Su Zhe remain silent, Yae no Miko smiled and said, "But don't worry, only I know about this. Actually, the reason I made the final decision was your battle at Ta Ba Sha."

"You are?"

“I’m not here, but Kujo Sara is. Well, as the current commander of the shogunate army, she comes to the shrine to pray at a fixed time every month. I used to find it quite annoying because she always wanted to ask me about the shogun, but now that I think about it, it’s not so bad to have her around.”

"Hehe~ I just said that this is the general's favorite amulet, and she carried it with her without hesitation, and she never takes it off."

"..."

Su Zhe finally understood why this scoundrel could sit in the shrine while his eyes could see a thousand miles away.

I thought that by giving the amulet to Man Ye, I had avoided the Yae no Kamiko, but I didn't expect that the Yae no Kamiko had so many 'eyes'.

Poor Kujo, he probably doesn't even know he's being watched all the time.

"Don't overthink it. I'm not the kind of person who would pry into other people's private lives," Yae no Miko said leisurely. "Besides, I have no interest in it. However, Kujo Sara, though stubborn, is also loyal. Few can match her loyalty to the Shogun and Inazuma."

"Inazuma is currently beset by internal and external troubles, and is in a precarious situation. I do not enjoy doing these things, but as a court official, it is my duty to speak out for the people, even if it sometimes means doing things that go against my principles... Do you understand what I mean?"

The fox rarely showed a look of contemplation about life. Everyone said she was despicable, but who knew the loneliness behind her smiling face?

The scenery of the world remains unchanged for hundreds and thousands of years, but people's lives are as fleeting as dew and bubbles. One by one, her old friends leave, and she can only watch helplessly as her most cherished friend, unable to bear the grief, goes to pursue the illusory eternity.

"The path to eternity... is too ethereal. The eternity she pursues has long become her own perception of eternity. She clearly wants to get out of that lonely world more than anyone else, but she has no choice but to walk alone on the wrong path and endure loneliness."

"It's really...heartbreaking to see."

The fox picked up his wine glass, looked up at the window, a gentle breeze blew, petals fluttered, and his thoughts grew increasingly melancholy with the wind.

Then came another long silence.

It wasn't until Yae no Miko finished drinking the wine in her cup that she finally regained her familiar smile.

"Alright, let's end the compassionate part here. I told you all this because I wanted to ask you to help Inazuma. You just said you didn't take sides, that's great."

Yae no Miko clapped her hands, her face beaming with joy.

"Then, in my capacity as Yaezakura, I'll invite you to officially join the 'Inazuma Rescue Project Squad,' how about that?"

Su Zhe's lips twitched: "Are you sure this isn't just playing house?"

"Hmm~ That's hard to say. If the deity wants to play house, then we'll have to go with her, provided that she can get out of the Pure Land of One Heart smoothly... By the way, that's her consciousness space. Just like I told you before, the real Raijin isn't the one in the castle tower."

"The true God of Thunder entered that space hundreds of years ago, and his name is Shadow, Thunder Movie."

The issue returns to a point Su Zhe is familiar with: now that Yae no Kamiko knows his identity, he has no intention of hiding it.

Chapter 10 Oh no! My identity as a demon god has been exposed! >>

Anyway, Su Zhe is a Kyogre, and quite a few people already know that.

But he had no intention of joining the squad, because the matter was about getting the Shadow, who was in the Pure Land of One Heart, to appear, but the Traveler wasn't there.

"I've thought about this," Yae no Miko suddenly blinked and said, "Let's use your invincible time-stop ability to think of a solution."

"Uh-huh?"

Su Zhe looked at Yae.

Yae looked at Su Zhe.

The two stared at each other for a long while.

Whoosh!

Su Zhe immediately stood up and prepared to run away.

"Wait a minute! Su Zhe! Lord Kyoka! Envoy! Whatever it is, please wait a minute!"

The art style suddenly exploded!

For the next ten minutes or so, the shrine maidens of Narukami Shrine listened in utter bewilderment to their revered Yae no Miyaji crying, screaming, and sobbing. Although they didn't see the actual scene, it wasn't hard to imagine what it was like for a child to throw a tantrum, clinging to someone's leg and crying.

If it weren't for Yae no Miko's strict orders that they absolutely could not approach or enter the room, they really would have rushed in to find out what was going on.

"What happened to Lord Yae no Kami?"

"This...this really is Lord Yae no Kami speaking?"

"No way, Lord Kuji is so dignified and elegant, how could he act like a child?"

"I know! It must be Lady Kuji playing a prank; she used magic!"

The witches suddenly realized.

Lady Miyaji is dignified and elegant, beautiful and generous, that's all true, but she also likes to play pranks, hmm, this must be Lady Miyaji playing a prank.

As if unwilling to believe that their esteemed priestess's persona had crumbled, the shrine maidens desperately tried to find excuses for themselves.

Inside the room, Yae no Miko, having finally calmed down, returned to the table. Su Zhe stared wide-eyed, gaining a new understanding of this flexible and adaptable court priest.

Is this some kind of scumbag fox?

No, this is the real scumbag!

They've really gone too far!

She cried and screamed, rolled on the ground, whined and acted cute, doing everything she could to get what she wanted.

Of course, what he didn't know was that after Yae no Miko learned that Su Zhe was a demon god, he subconsciously regarded him as a 'big boss' who had lived for a long time.

Of course, you have to maintain the demeanor of an elegant older sister in front of a cute little one.

But in front of the big shot, this doesn't matter. Yae no Kamiko is magnanimous and open-minded. In any case, Inazuma's future is more important than so-called face.

Besides, it's unreliable to talk about face with demons. Gods are essentially demons, so would you talk about face with them?

However, Yae no Miko also had her own guesses. Looking at Su Zhe's youthful appearance, she thought that it was said that one's appearance reflects one's heart, and how one transforms into human form is more or less related to one's experiences.

Clearly, Su Zhe is a demon god, but he's probably not that powerful, maybe a thousand years old at most. To deal with someone like that, you have to act silly and make a scene to soften their hearts.

Young, possessing mysterious time-manipulating powers, and the identity of a demon god—he has incredible potential!

Even if it weren't for rescuing Inazuma, but simply for the possibility of securing a wild demon god for Inazuma, Yae no Miko would still feel obligated to do so.

Therefore, from now on, it will be the Yae no Kamiko's real offensive phase.

"Lord Kyogre? Lord Kyogre? Lord Kyogre?..."

Su Zhe got an erection.

The fist hardened.

"Don't give me that. If you had said that Thor wasn't a puppet, I might have been able to help you. But now, forget it!"

The most important step in solving the Inazuma problem is to bring out the Shadow. Yae no Miko's plan is to use Su Zhe's mysterious power of time to shout "Za Warudo!" when facing the Shogun. The power of time will trigger a reaction from Isshin Jodo, and the Shadow will definitely be able to sense it.

After all, the shadow was meditating inside, not hibernating.

The reason Yae no Miko was so certain was that when Su Zhe used the power of time on Ta Sa, although time stopped in that space, her consciousness was inside the protective amulet and was not affected.

That's why she was able to witness the amazing scene of Su Zhe shooting the stragglers.

By using the power of time to pique Ying's attention, they can then have a heart-to-heart talk about 'eternity'.

Shadow! Let me show you what true eternity is—time, stop!

Then you can do whatever you want... Ugh!

In short, Kyogre, who possesses the power of time, should have more right to express his opinions than anyone else.

After all, the eternity that Shadow is pursuing now is infinitely close to the meaning of stopping time. If we don't move forward and let the beauty of this moment become Inazuma's eternity, we will never lose it. Such an understanding of eternity is really too superficial for a god.

Even the Wind God next door, who's always slacking off, probably understands this better than the Shadow.

That being said, the premise is that Ying is willing to sit down and have a heart-to-heart talk with him. Facing the Seven Gods, Su Zhe dares not use the power of time casually, after all, this thing is too special.

"Don't worry, I guarantee that the doll won't hurt you. If you don't believe me, I can go with you. If Ying still doesn't come out, you can kidnap me. No matter what, she can't possibly disregard my life."

"What if they really don't care?"

“Then…” Yae no Miko sighed softly, “Then I will have no choice but to go to the underworld with Lord Kyogre and become a pair of star-crossed lovers. Lord Kyogre, don’t worry, I will take care of you on the way and you won’t feel lonely.”

Su Zhe remained silent for a long time, fidgeting restlessly, staring at the scoundrel fox again and again, before finally squeezing out a single word—"焯!"

...

Just as Su Zhe and Yae no Miko were arguing, outside Narukami Taisha Shrine...

"You guys, wait here."

Visiting the shrine at specific times each month is a habit that Kujo Sara has always maintained.

I've been having a lot of worries lately, so I'm drawing a fortune stick to see if it's 'great fortune' or 'big breasts'.

At this moment, Kujo Sara walked towards the shrine. She hardly saw anyone along the way, which puzzled her. Although Inazuma had been a bit chaotic lately, it shouldn't be that no one came to the shrine.

Not only were there no worshippers, but even the shrine maiden could not be seen.

"what happened?"

With some doubts, Kujo Sara arrived at the sacred cherry tree as usual. She noticed that the shrine maiden at the fortune-telling spot was still there, which dispelled some of her doubts.
