Click Publish.

A beam of light, visible only to him, shone down on Komachi, who was absentmindedly staring at the vase on the coffee table.

Chapter 146 The Wind God Mistaken for a Strand of Wind by the Lady

He glanced sideways at Komachi Hikigaya, who was sitting on the sofa. She was staring absentmindedly at the vase on the coffee table, her slender fingers unconsciously twirling the ends of her hair, seemingly oblivious to his movements.

What is this? Why isn't it responding?

Where did the main god send this task?

Could there be a delay?

He was about to turn off the panel and continue eating his bread when he suddenly noticed that Komachi Hikigaya's body stiffened slightly.

A distinct blush rose on her cheeks, as if she had been startled by something, but she didn't speak. She just lowered her head, her eyes darting around in the air before finally settling on Ye Hai.

Before Ye Hai could speak, Komachi suddenly stood up, her face as red as Mondstadt dandelion wine. She silently walked to the coffee table, picked up the kettle, and with a slightly unnatural stiffness, poured a full glass of water into the cup in front of Ye Hai.

Without saying a word, she walked over with the cup in her hand, bowed her head, and presented it to Ye Hai. The tips of her ears were so red they looked like they were about to bleed.

"Uh... Komachi?"

Ye Hai paused for a moment, took the cup, and was a little confused.

Has this task been successfully published?

Komachi remained silent, biting her lip and glancing at him quickly before lowering her head and pretending to adjust her skirt, trying to hide her shyness.

Just then, a notification suddenly popped up on the main god panel:

[Mission Complete: Komachi Hikigaya has completed the mission "Pour a glass of water for Ye Hai". Please issue the mission reward "A hug from Ye Hai", otherwise an equivalent amount of reward points will be deducted as compensation for breach of contract.]

Ye Hai stared at the panel, his lips twitching: "They actually accepted?!"

He originally just wanted to test whether the task editor could accept virtual rewards, but he didn't expect that Komachi would complete the task without saying a word.

Unable to contain his curiosity, he casually asked, "God, how many reward points is my hug worth?"

The main god remained silent for a few seconds, and then a line of text slowly appeared on the panel:

[After evaluation, "Ye Hai's Embrace" is worth less than 1 reward point, but the minimum deduction unit in the Main God Space is 1 reward point. If the host refuses to issue the reward, 1 reward point will be deducted.]

Ye Hai nearly spat out the bread in his mouth: "Not even worth a reward point?! God, who are you looking down on?!"

He looked up at Komachi; she was still standing there, head down, her fingers nervously twisting together, the blush on her face still lingering.

Ye Hai smiled helplessly, stood up, and gently opened his arms to pull Komachi into his embrace. The warmth of her touch came through the thin fabric.

Perhaps it was because Mondstadt's clothing was too thin, Ye Hai could even feel the small bulge pressing against his chest.

Komachi froze for a moment, then buried her face in his chest, breathing rapidly, as if she was about to explode with embarrassment.

Ye Hai looked down at her. Up close, she had a youthful fragrance, her face was adorably flushed, and her eyelashes trembled slightly.

His heart fluttered, and as if possessed, he lowered his head and gently kissed her forehead.

Komachi's body trembled violently. She looked up, her eyes wide, covered her forehead with her hand, and her face turned as red as if it were about to burst into flames: "Y-Ya Haioni! What are you doing!"

Her voice was so soft it was like a mosquito's hum, tinged with a shy reproach.

Ye Hai coughed, took a step back, and scratched his head: "Cough, the reward has been upgraded!"

He quickly sat down, took a sip of water, and tried to hide his embarrassment.

……

"Where did the things go?!"

The woman's angry voice rang out.

She reached into Wendy's chest, but found nothing.

The eighth seat of the eleven executive officers of the Dongguo Diplomatic Mission of the Fools, codenamed "Lady".

Her original name was Rosalyn Cruzshika Loefat.

He is a diplomatic envoy of the Kingdom of Winter, and also obeys the orders of the Queen of the Kingdom of Winter, responsible for collecting the hearts of gods from other gods.

The square in front of Mondstadt Cathedral was now a mess.

Wendy lay on the ground, her green cloak covered in dust.

"Damn it! Where is your Heart of God?!"

The woman's voice was as cold as the ice and snow of winter. She stomped her foot on Wendy's chest, flames gathering in her hand, her killing intent undisguised: "Don't play dumb with me, Barbatos, the Wind God!"

Wendy coughed twice, looked up at her, and still laughed carefree: "Hey, I don't know either~"

He shrugged, seemingly unconcerned about being beaten down: "The Heart of God? That thing hasn't been with me for a long time."

He knew that the people of Zhidong wanted the Heart of God, so he had already passed the trouble to Ye Hai.

He just didn't expect to get beaten up by the woman.

That guy was so rude! Before he started hitting me, didn't he at least ask if the stuff was still with him?

The woman's eyes darkened, and she leaned down to grab Wendy's collar, reaching directly into his chest to try and pull out the treasure that symbolized divine power.

However, she still couldn't find anything: "What did you say?!"

Wendy blinked, her smile becoming even more irritating: "I told you, I gave the Heart of God to someone else a long time ago. You're too late, ma'am."

Not far away, Ying knelt on the ground, her hands gripping the bladeless sword tightly, supporting her swaying body.

The gap in strength between her and the lady is too great; it's simply beyond her ability to intervene.

Paimon had long been swept away by a strong gust of wind and was blown to who knows where.

"Who did you give it to!"

The woman pressed for an answer.

I thought I could get it done smoothly in one go, but unexpected trouble came up.

But before the lady could get any answers, hurried footsteps and the clanging of armor came from afar—the Knights of Favonius were rapidly approaching.

...... ..... ....

"Tsk!"

The woman snorted coldly, a hint of resentment flashing in her eyes.

She waved to her men: "Retreat!"

The Fools' soldiers quickly retreated, turning into shadows and disappearing into the night in the blink of an eye from the church square.

Wendy lay on the ground, rubbing her chest where she had been stepped on. She sat up, dusted herself off, and grinned at Ying: "Hey, that scared me to death. Luckily, the Knights arrived quickly."

Ying stood up, panting heavily. She had no idea what the other party was planning, and was beaten up by the Fools as a side effect.

From afar, Paimon's voice suddenly came, tinged with tears: "Luminous! Wendy! Are you alright!"

The little guy was blown around by the wind and finally flew back, his hair a mess like a bird's nest.

What exactly is the Heart of God?

Ying stood up and dusted herself off.

Paimon floated over to Ying, his hair a mess, and stood angrily with his hands on his hips: "That's right! Wendy, you're the one who caused Paimon to be blown onto the tavern roof by the wind! Confess now!"

Wendy scratched her head and smiled in a slightly smug way: "Hey, don't be angry."

"The Heart of God, simply put, is a token bestowed upon the seven gods by the Sky Isles, symbolizing the authority of the gods. Each Heart of God contains a portion of elemental power and is related to the laws of Teyvat."

Although Ying already knew that Wendy was Barbatos, the god of wind, she had never heard of the concept of the Heart of God before: "So, your Heart of God is a symbol of the god of wind? Where is it now?" Fan asked.

Chapter 147 A Severe Lesson

Wendy blinked, her smile widening mischievously. "You gave it to someone else, Ying. You even know that guy~"

Ying was taken aback. She had just arrived in Mondstadt and didn't know many people.

For the condition that she and Wendy both need to know each other...

Several names flashed through Ying's mind, but finally settled on one person: "Don't tell me... it's Ye Hai?!"

Wendy shrugged, grinning like a cat that had just stolen some cream: "Hey, you guessed it! It's that guy Ye Hai. I thought he was pretty interesting, so I gave him the Heart of God. Anyway, it's no use keeping it with me, and it just keeps causing trouble."

Ying was speechless. Wendy had recently been bragging to them about finding a sucker to pay for his drinks.

When Ying found out it was Ye Hai, she felt a little sorry for him.

Now……

They seem even more pitiful now.

What is the use of Ye Hai Na's Heart of God?

Obtaining the Heart of God doesn't mean you can become a god.

And it will also cause trouble.

Ying estimated that the lady would find Ye Hai sooner or later.

"Ye Hai, huh... Hmph."

The woman hiding in the shadows snorted coldly, then turned and left.

This time she's really gone.

"Hey~"

Wendy, standing in front of Mondstadt Cathedral, seemed to have suddenly learned something interesting, and a bright smile appeared on her face.

Nothing can hide from the wind.

It was all just Wendy's twisted sense of humor.

……

"Ok?"

Ye Hai, who was sitting on the balcony reading a book, seemed to sense something and frowned, saying, "Coming for me?"

Ye Hai looked up at the silent second-floor bedroom door. Eriri and the others were still resting, so it was best not to let anyone disturb them.

Ye Hai simply stood up, jumped off the second-floor balcony, and headed towards the outskirts of the city.

The person secretly watching seemed to have only his target, and followed him directly.

Ye Hai walked straight out of Mondstadt's city gates, and then, under the angry gaze of a little boy by the city gate bridge, kicked away a pigeon that was blocking his way.

After walking for a long time, the person behind seemed to be very patient and did not jump out early.

The morning sun shines brightly in Mondstadt, and a gentle breeze carries the fragrance of grass and trees across the cliffs.

Ye Hai stopped under a big tree, staring at the shadows of the woods, a lazy smile tugging at the corner of his mouth.

"Come out. I've been following you all this way. I thought you'd make your move as soon as you left the city."

The moment the words left his mouth, a chilling murderous aura filled the air.

The lady, Rosalyn Cruzshika Loefat, the eighth executive officer of the Fools, emerged from the woods.

Her black and red dress shone brightly in the morning light, the flame dancing between her fingers exuded a dangerous aura, and her eyes were as cold as the ice and snow of winter.

"Give up the heart of God."

The woman's voice was devoid of any warmth: "That thing is not something you can touch."
