"Please set your birthplace: Mondstadt/Liyue/Inazuma"
Are these the only three countries?
Seeing that there were only three countries, Kujo Tsumugi frowned slightly.
There are seven countries in the game "Genshin Impact", but now there are only three countries... Can I only choose countries that I have been to?
After thinking for a moment, Tsumugi Kujo chose "Mond".
"Please set the character's purpose: ... (Note, the character's actions in the simulator will revolve around this purpose)"
This time, what was placed in front of Kujo Tsumugi was not a multiple-choice question, but a fill-in-the-blank question.
After hesitating for a while, Tsumugi Kujo finally wrote in the purpose column: "Live this life with my own pride"... In a way, this is also Tsumugi Kujo's own belief.
"Please set the character's code of conduct: Lawful/Neutral/Chaotic (Note: the choices in the simulator are related to the character's personality)"
Tsumugi Kujo chose "neutral".
"Warm reminder, after the simulator ends, the host can choose unique equipment, memory, talent, weapon, bond and other rewards based on their experience in the simulator."
"Warm reminder, after the simulator ends, what happens in the simulator will affect the real world to some extent. Please choose carefully when faced with various options."
"Simulation begins."
[0 years old: You were born into a noble family in Mondstadt, and your father named you Tsumugi Lawrence.]
Lawrence???
Wait, is that Lawrence from Eula? !
[1 year old: Lawrence is a noble family that has been passed down in Mondstadt for thousands of years. Although it has declined now, your material life is still much better than many people in Mondstadt. You live in a Lawrence family manor outside Mondstadt.]
[2 years old: Your parents love you very much. Although your family is not rich, they try their best to meet all your requirements. Under their careful cultivation, you grow up slowly.]
[3 years old: You began to learn literacy under your father's arrangement. You were a genius and mastered a large number of words easily. The Lawrence family began to notice your extraordinary talent.]
[4 years old: Your mother began to teach you the etiquette of the nobility, and your father also began to train you, hoping that you could inherit the family's swordsmanship. Your time for playing became less and less, until it was completely filled with various courses. However, you were sensible and still gritted your teeth and persevered. ]
[5 years old: You have lived in your family since you were a child and have never stepped out of the family. You asked to go to Mondstadt to play. After hearing what you said, your mother was silent. Then she promised to allow you to go out to play after you finished all the courses.]
[6 years old: In order to leave home as soon as possible, you worked hard to learn all kinds of knowledge. You often imagined what Mondstadt was like, and then told your mother about these fantasies. You were so young that you didn't notice the complicated and guilty look your mother gave you.]
[7 years old: You heard that your cousin Eula Lawrence had a conflict with her family. When you asked your father about it, he always changed the subject.]
[8 years old: Your father began to take you to various noble banquets. You saw your cousin Eula at a banquet. You greeted her and wanted to ask her why she had a conflict with her family last year. Eula looked at you with hostility and left without saying a word. You were very sad and didn't know how you had offended her.]
PS: Should I expand on these simulations? I always feel that they are too general. Would it be better to add the protagonist's complaints and thoughts?
Chapter 5 Eula has something to say...
[9 years old: You have completely mastered all the courses for the nobility. You asked your mother if you wanted to go to Mondstadt. Although she was worried, your mother still fulfilled her promise several years ago and planned to take you to Mondstadt. However, your father found out about your actions and they had a big fight. In order to calm your father's anger, you gave up the plan to go to Mondstadt. That night, your father talked to you and promised that as long as you completed the swordsmanship training, he would allow you to go to Mondstadt.]
[You were confused. You were just heading to Mondstadt, so why were your parents so nervous? But you didn't think much about it. You just thought your parents were worried about thieves on the road.]
[10 years old: You study swordsmanship lessons diligently. ]
[11 years old: You saw your cousin Eula at the banquet again. Since Eula had lived in the Lawrence family in Mondstadt since she was a child, you envied her and wanted to talk to her. However, before you could get close to her, she glared at you and left.]
[12 years old: You finished the swordsmanship course, and your father thought you should see the outside world. Under the pretext of buying food, your father took you to Mondstadt. You seemed very excited along the way, but your father kept his head down and said nothing. However, you didn't pay attention to these details.]
[After a day of traveling, you and your father arrived at Mondstadt. The magnificent city walls and stone bridges opened your eyes. The bustling shops on both sides of the streets of Mondstadt made you dazzled. You wanted to buy some gifts for your mother. Your father hesitated for a moment and then agreed, so you entered the store alone.]
[You chose a bracelet made of ice blue stones. When you went to the counter to pay, the lady at the counter charged you twice the price. You were very angry and asked why. The lady at the counter did not answer. She just looked at you with disgust, as if she was looking at a pile of garbage.]
[You were furious and went to the Knights of Favonius to seek justice, but when they found out that you were from the Lawrence family, they showed the same disgusted expression as the lady at the counter, saying that this matter was not theirs to deal with, and then left. You were extremely angry, but being well versed in aristocratic etiquette, you suppressed your dissatisfaction, put the bracelet back in place, performed aristocratic etiquette to the lady at the counter, and left.]
[Your father saw the whole incident on the street, but he did not intervene. He just held your hand silently after you walked out of the store.]
[You followed your father without saying a word. When you calmed down, you realized that the Mond people who saw you and your father on the street all showed disgusted expressions. You vaguely heard words like "It's unlucky to run into the Lawrence family so early in the morning." You looked at your father's back and found that he was more humble than ever. ]
[Finally, after your father paid more than three times the market price in Mora, he bought the ingredients. On the way home, you and your father said nothing, but he kept sighing.]
[Back at the manor, your mother explained the reason to you. More than a thousand years ago, the Lawrence family ruled Mondstadt with extremely brutal means, but was subsequently overthrown by Vanessa, the founder of the Knights of Favonius. Although they still retained their noble status, they were hated by everyone in Mondstadt.]
[You ask your mother, wasn't that a thousand years ago? Why do the Mond people still hate the Lawrence family after so long?]
【Your mother did not answer your question, and maybe she does not know the answer to this question. 】
[13 years old: Since then, your personality has become much more stable, and it is not even like the stability of a child. Your father has a drinking problem. You often hear your drunk father say that the biggest mistake he made in his life was taking you to Mondstadt.]
[14 years old: After returning from that trip to Mondstadt, you practiced swordsmanship and noble etiquette desperately. You wanted to prove to the people of Mondstadt that even if they hated the Lawrence family, the Lawrence family could live proudly in Mondstadt as nobles.]
"Wow, the character's purpose is revealed here, and the foreshadowing is recovered."
The real Kujo Tsumugi shook her head and complained.
[15 years old: Your father died of alcoholism. After his death, your mother also died of excessive grief. Your relatives were very sad when they heard about this. They took you to live in the main house of the Lawrence family in Mondstadt. You saw your cousin Eula again.]
[16 years old: You lived with Eula for a year. During this time, you found that Eula's attitude towards you seemed a little unusual. Sometimes she would take the initiative to talk to you, but after a few words she would find an excuse to run away. But more often she would deliberately appear in front of you and look at you with expectant eyes, which made you confused and thought she was a weirdo.]
[In addition to her unusual attitude towards you, you noticed that Eula's interpersonal relationships were terrible, even with her parents. Including her parents, Eula almost hated everyone in the Lawrence family. You were very confused as to why Eula had such a mentality, but you didn't intend to get to know the matter in depth... She was just a cousin with whom you didn't have a good relationship, and even if she hated the Lawrence family, so what? Could she betray the family? ]
[Just when you were thinking this, one night, there was a knock on your door. When you opened the door, the person standing at the door was none other than your nominal cousin Eula. She said she wanted to talk to you about something. After much hesitation, you decided...]
【1. Open the door and welcome. 】
【2. Close the door and refuse. 】
"Oh? Is this the option the simulation system will give?" The real Kujo Tsumugi was stunned, then chose option 1.
"Entering an important plot, the host will enter immersion mode next. Please behave well and do not do anything contrary to the character of the protagonist in the simulator."
After Kujo Tsumugi finished her choice, the system suddenly popped up this sentence. Kujo Tsumugi was stunned, and then felt that the environment around her began to change. Soon she came to a completely unfamiliar house, and in front of her stood a girl in an ice-blue nightgown.
"This is..." While Kujo Tsumugi was still in a daze, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her head, and then a stream of unfamiliar memories slowly emerged in her mind. Soon, Kujo Tsumugi obtained all the memories about Tsumugi Lawrence so far.
"It's Miss Youla, please come in."
After a brief moment of daze, Tsumugi Kujo immediately welcomed Eula into the room. At the same time, the voice of the simulation system sounded again in Tsumugi Kujo's mind.
"Triggering side quest: Miss Eula has something to say..."
"Mission content: Listen to Eula's troubles."
"Hint: Ever since you came to the Lawrence family, Eula has been getting more and more irritated. Today, she finally couldn't stand it anymore and decided to confide her troubles to you."
"There is no penalty for not completing side quests. Completing side quests can improve the evaluation of this simulation."
"Tsumugi, I have something to say to you..." After entering the room, Eula's attitude became a little awkward.
"What's the matter, Miss Eula?"
Tsumugi Kujo asked, pretending not to notice Eula's awkward attitude.
"What... do you think of the Lawrence family?" Eula asked nervously.
"My opinion is... there must be something hateful about a pitiful person... or vice versa, there must be something pitiful about a hateful person."
"Our ancestors once ruled Mond with a brutal slave system. After being overthrown by the people of Mond, they paid the price they deserved. The Lawrence family, which was once at the peak of its power in Mond, disappeared forever. Now, the entire Lawrence family only has a dozen manors, which are barely enough to feed the people in the family. That's all. It can even be said that the Lawrence family has long been dead in name only."
"However, the current situation in Mondstadt is distorted and wrong." Tsumugi Kujo changed his words and said, "Hatred should be remembered, but it should not be continued."
"The people of Mond were originally afraid that our Lawrence family would make a comeback, so they tried their best to suppress our Lawrence family. This is understandable, but now it has been a thousand years since our Lawrence family was overthrown - even longer than the time we ruled Mond, but the oppression of us by the people of Mond has not decreased at all, but has become more and more severe."
"That's right! That's it!"
It seemed that what Kujo Tsumugi said touched Eula's heart. She walked forward excitedly, held Kujo Tsumugi's white and tender hands with both hands, and shook them up and down, as if she had found a confidant.
"So I plan to join the Knights of Favonius and improve the impression of the Lawrence family in the hearts of the Mondstadt people. In this way, sooner or later, the Lawrence people will no longer be discriminated against by the Mondstadt people!"
As Eula spoke, she seemed to have thought of something and her expression became angry again.
"My father was very opposed to my joining the Knights of Favonius, saying that the Lawrence family, with its honor, would never surrender to the enemy. This is ridiculous. The family's situation is already so difficult. If it continues like this, we won't even be able to support our family members."
"I think the master's idea is right."
"I'm sure you will support me!"
The voices of Tsumugi Kujo and Eula sounded at the same time, but the meanings they expressed were completely opposite.
"Huh?" Eula was surprised not to get the support of Kujo Tsumugi and was stunned for a moment.
"There is an old saying in Liyue, 'The first bird to stick its head out gets shot.' The first person to try something new will not have a good ending, Sister Eula."
"So do you mean to let the Lawrence family continue to decline?" There was a hint of hostility in Eula's words, and she couldn't help but shout loudly: "You too, and my father too, why don't you understand me!"
After saying this, Eula slammed the door and walked out, leaving only her back to Kujo Tsumugi.
"Side quest: Miss Eula has something to say... failed."
Hearing the voice of the simulation system, Kujo Tsumugi was slightly stunned.
It's broken! I was too affected by Tsumugi Lawrence's memory and forgot that I still had a mission!
"Ahhh what am I doing!?"
However, it was too late for Kujo Tsumugi to regret now. Due to the failure of the side quest, Kujo Tsumugi was quickly ejected from the immersive mode and could only stare at the information on the simulation system.
[Since that night, Eula has always looked at you with hostility. You are very familiar with that look because that is how Eula looks at other Lawrence people.]
[After that, you talked to Eula several times, but she rejected you coldly every time. As time went by, you gave up the idea of improving your relationship with Eula.]
[17 years old: Eula is going to hold her coming-of-age ceremony tonight. According to convention, everyone should give her a gift at the banquet. You ignore the disgusted expression of the counter lady, walk into the store in Mondstadt, and decide to give her a gift...]
[1. Just buy a bracelet or necklace or something like that in the store to fool people.]
[2. Give the sword that you always carry with you to Eula.]
[3. Buy a red ribbon and wrap it around yourself, then give yourself to Eula.]
,
Considering that Eula is her cousin after all, and this is a very important coming-of-age gift, it would be too insincere to just buy her a piece of jewelry as a gift, so Kujo Tsumugi chose 2.
[You looked around the store and felt that the items here were not worthy of the noble bloodline of the Lawrence family, so you walked out of the store. After thinking about it, you decided to give your sword to Eula. This sword was given to you by your father when you were practicing swordsmanship as a child. It means a lot to you. Although you don't like Eula, you feel that only this sword is worthy of such an important banquet.]
[That night, you gave your sword to Eula. She was very surprised and solemnly promised you that she would cherish the sword. Then she put your sword on her waist and looked at you with less hostility.]
[The banquet went smoothly. According to the procedure, as long as Eula performed a ritual dance on the stage, the banquet would end smoothly. Under the expectant eyes of the nobles, Eula Lawrence slowly walked onto the stage...]
"Entering an important plot, the host will enter immersion mode next. Please behave well and do not do anything contrary to the character of the protagonist in the simulator."
Huh? Entering immersion mode again so soon?
Seeing the prompt in front of her, Tsumugi Kujo immediately prepared herself. In a few seconds, she appeared in a banquet. In the center of the banquet, Eula was standing on the stage in a light blue dress...
PS: The original chapter of 2,000 words has been revised to 3,800 words...
Chapter 6: Changes on the stage, Eula's sudden outburst
"Before we start dancing, I have an important announcement to make."
Eula stood on the stage, looking down upon the nobles present.
?
Faced with this sudden situation, everyone present was at a loss.
"I've decided..." Eula took a deep breath, and then seemed to have made some kind of decision, "I want to join the Knights of Favonius."
quiet……
As Eula's voice fell, the entire banquet fell into deathly silence.
"What a joke!"
A deep male voice suddenly sounded in the crowd, as if a muffled thunder suddenly exploded in the crowd. The people present couldn't help but look in the direction of the voice. The person who said this was a classical man with a mustache, wearing an elegant and luxurious suit. He looked at Eula with eyes that seemed to be able to spit out flames.
He is Eula's father and the current head of the Lawrence family.
When Tsumugi Kujo turned to look at the man, information about the man automatically emerged in her mind.
"Eula, shut up and apologize right now, so I can still treat what you just said as a slip of the tongue!"
"I do not!"
Faced with her father's threatening words, Eula responded without any fear.
"I've had enough of the Lawrence family! They only care about those worthless, cumbersome and meaningless aristocratic etiquette all day long! They think that being a Lawrence family member is inherently superior! Even though the family's Mora is almost at the bottom of the pile, they still want to hold this luxurious coming-of-age ceremony! I've had enough of all this!!"
