The treasure thieves of Teyvat rob Shenhe

"Of course." Ying said with a smile.

Hearing this, Asase smiled gently again.

"I don't know your names yet."

"fluorescent."

"Paimon."

Asase nodded.

Paimon raised his head and looked at the sky. The sun was about to set, the autumn air was chilly, and winter was approaching. Asase was wearing thin clothes.

"Ms. Asase, where do you live? Let us take you home first." Paimon said considerately.

This time, Asase did not refuse. She told her the address of a hotel, and Ying and Paimon took her home.

Along the way, Asase spoke very little, almost nothing, and was very quiet. If it weren't for the sound of her cane tapping on the ground, it would be easy to ignore her existence, as if she were a ghost.

Asase was sent to the hotel, where Ying and Paimon also stayed.

The next day, Ying and Paimon went out for a while, and when they came back they went to find Asase, knocked on the door and revealed their identities.

After waiting for a while, footsteps were heard from inside the door and Asase opened it.

Asase loves to laugh softly and gently. The morning sun shines on her fair face, making her look more energetic.

All of a sudden, Asase's temperament changed from a sickly girl to a gentle sister next door.

"Ying, Paimon, good morning."

"Good morning." Paimon said.

Ying also said good morning.

"What's that smell?" Paimon smelled a bitter smell through his nose.

"I'm making medicine. I'll go open the window."

"I'll go."

Ying went to open the window. She calmly observed Asase's room. Sure enough, there was a pot of decocting medicine on the table. There was a green medicine in the pot, and the ingredients could not be seen.

Open the windows for ventilation, and the bitter smell of medicine in the room will dissipate a lot.

"What kind of medicine is this?" Paimon asked curiously.

"It's for calming the nerves." Asase told Paimon without reservation, "I went to Xumi to get treatment for an illness before."

"Is it cured then?"

"If I'm cured, I won't have to keep taking medicine." Asase said self-deprecatingly, "I'm not sick."

Paimeng was puzzled as to why they said it was a disease and then said it was not a disease.

"Is nightmare considered a disease?" Asase asked back.

"Uh…"

"I know you care about me, Paimon," Asase said gently, "I've gotten used to it over the years."

Asase didn't finish his words.

Not just a nightmare.

She had so many illnesses.

Nightmares, eye diseases, heart disease, forgetfulness, muscle atrophy...

It was as if the world was malicious towards her and arranged a painful journey of life for Asase, where she was displaced and suffered torture.

Asase tried hard not to show it, for fear of making people worry.

"By the way, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"Oh, well, we're here to bring you breakfast." Paimon picked up the paper bag and chuckled.

Asase has difficulty moving around on her own, she usually eats two meals a day and skips breakfast.

Careful Ying thought of this.

"Thank you, how much Mora?"

Paimon said it was free, just as an apology for bumping into Asase yesterday.

Asase accepted it. She was unwilling to continue making unnecessary excuses and silently felt the warmth, thinking that it was great to meet two good people at the end of her life.

"Asase, do you have any plans?"

"Arrangement..." Asase thought for a moment, she said embarrassedly, "I originally planned to stay in the room alone, but can you walk with me?"

"Where to go?"

“The local shrine.”

"no problem!"

The outlying island shrine is bustling with people.

Asase did not make a wish. She no longer believed in the favor of God. Instead, she stood by the approach to the temple, staring at the crowd without saying a word.

At this time, she exuded a kind of loneliness and isolation, and Ying and Paimeng could not get in touch with her.

"Ms. Asase, aren't you going to make a wish?" Paimon tried to find a topic.

"There are too many people making wishes. Even the gods are too busy to handle it all. Besides, those with pure and kind intentions should have their wishes fulfilled first," said Asase.

"I think Ms. Asase is a gentle and kind person. Even though I bumped into you, you didn't blame me and asked me if I was hurt right away."

Asase didn't say anything, perhaps he didn't agree.

The chief priest of the Rito Shrine is an old lady. She comes out and teaches the lazy little shrine maiden.

When Asase saw this scene, the corners of his mouth rose slightly as if he had thought of something.

I miss you so much.

Then, Asase covered his eyes again and sobbed quietly.

"Ms. Asase, what's wrong?" Paimon asked with concern.

"I was thinking about some things in the past...a long time ago." Asase put down her hand, her gray eyes dimmed, and her voice gradually became softer.

"Meow?"

A cat walked to Asase's feet, nudged her calf with its head, and made a coquettish sound.

"What a cute orange cat. No, what a fat orange cat!"

Paimon looked at the piece of bread, which had become "plump" due to being fed by the visitors.

Asase squatted down and reached out to scratch the orange cat's chin, and the cat purred comfortably.

It seems that Asase is a good cat petting expert.

"Yoko!"

someone shouted.

"Yoko? Such a familiar name..." Paimon muttered.

The little shrine maiden ran over, picked up the orange cat, and said embarrassedly to Asase and Ying.

"I'm sorry, Yoko is harassing you. This fat cat just likes to find pretty sisters."

Paimon heard this and waved his hands quickly.

"It's okay, this cat is cute too."

"Is its name Yoko?" Asase stood up and asked the little witch.

"Yes, I named her that when I was a kid. Yang for sun, and Zi for rapeseed. After all, Yangzi is an orange cat, and I like flowers like sunflowers, so I named her that."

"Now it seems that we should call it Fei Bo, don't you think, Fei Bo?"

Yangzi didn't bother to pay attention and just took a step forward to moisten his feet.

The little witch apologized to Ying and Asase again, and then went after Yoko.

"Yoko?...I am..." Asase murmured, suddenly covering his forehead, a painful expression appeared on his face.

"Ms. Asase!"

The last scene of consciousness was a nervous and concerned Paimon and Ying hugging her.

Asase fainted.

She is a light sleeper.

It wasn't insomnia; on the contrary, she longed for it so she wouldn't have to have nightmares.

In the nightmare, she was alone suffering from a curse as loud as the tidal wave. Why did she break the seal, releasing endless thunderstorms and destroying her hometown?

What made Asase most sad was what her adoptive mother, Asase Hibiki, said to her in disappointment.

"I regret adopting you. You're the one who killed everyone."

But, I clearly wanted to save you, but you ignored my advice and insisted on saving Akako Hyakumeki... Is he more important than me, his adopted daughter? !

"I am a merciful and fair judge. I allow you to use your tongue to refute the 100,000 people who accuse you, one by one. In exchange, I will accept your eyes."

"Likewise, I allow your heart to beat, but...

Asase dreams of a stranger who took away her health. He claims to be the judge of the border and judges and punishes her crimes.

"Are you guilty?"

"..."

The next day, Asase woke up, her vision was blurry, as was her memory. She remembered that she was...

"Asase! You're awake!"

An excited voice came to my ears.

“…Paimon?”

"Yeah! You scared me and Ying yesterday! You suddenly fainted and went to the doctor and told him that Miss Asase had anemia..."

"Sorry for causing you trouble."

"It's okay, it's okay. Miss Asase, are you hungry? People with anemia need to eat more sweets. Would you like a piece of candy?" Paimon asked.

"…Um."

Put the candy into your mouth.

Asase discovered that she had lost her sense of taste.

Not surprised, nor panicked.

In the nightmare, the judge took away her sense of taste.

The judge said that the last time she tasted delicious food was her last meal before execution, a "favor" before death.

Fortunately, I still have time.

But, time is running out.

Asase chewed the candy stiffly and swallowed it. She couldn't see Paimon and Ying clearly, and her vision was gradually filled with darkness.

"I'm not going to Qinglai Island anymore."

"What?" Paimon didn't react.

"It's useless for me to go to Qinglai Island now." Asase said weakly. She said self-deprecatingly, "I can't do anything I want to make up for."

"It's been hundreds of years. Those who survived the thunderstorm have already died. How can I compensate them?"

"I am no match for the monsters that are wreaking havoc on Qinglai Island..."

"I've been gone for so long, but in the end my sins remain the same. If that's the case, why should I leave? I should take advantage of my limited time and health to do more of 'my' things."

"I'm going to Liyue Harbor to find her." Asase suddenly said firmly.
