Genshin Impact, I, a weak person, am challenging myself to find a solution that will bring me lifelo

On the curved, wolf-tooth-like mountain top, her white cross tombstone stands quietly.

There is only a name engraved on the stone tablet, no surname.

She gently brushed away the dust. On the base was an epitaph.

In Mond, after burying the dead, there is a tradition of carving an "inscription" to indicate the identity of the tomb owner.

Sometimes it is a proverb, sometimes it is the deceased's achievements during his lifetime, and sometimes... it is a blessing from others.

The epitaph on Youya's tombstone reads the latter.

——Here sleeps a holy and chaste little flower.

They are seized by sickness and die miserably, walking in the valley of the shadow of death.

O beautiful flower, you were harvested before you could bloom. God placed the purest thing by your side and carried you, the flower, to the paradise where it will never wither, to bloom.

As Qin was looking at the text with a sad expression on her face, a familiar voice came from behind her.

"……elder sister?"

She turned around and saw her sister Barbara standing behind her, also holding a bunch of flowers, with a look of surprise on her face.

"…It's Barbara. Did you come to see her too?"

Following her gaze, Barbara slowly walked to the front of the tombstone, squatted down, put down the bouquet, and then stood up again.

In this place where you can overlook Cider Lake and Mondstadt, he stood with his hands behind his back, and his voice sounded as if he had forgotten his sorrow.

"Yeah. If I don't come to see her more often, she'll definitely complain that she's too lonely."

Then she looked at her sister and asked.

"What about sister? You are a very important protagonist in today's award ceremony. I didn't find you at the banquet, so I thought you might come here too."

"It's just that I'm suddenly a little confused..."

Qin shook her head and stood beside her sister, looking at her who was also beautiful and lovely.

There seemed to be a shadow of a girl flashing before my eyes for a moment. If Youya had not died of illness, she would probably be about the same age as Barbara.

"——If it's my sister's words, I will definitely find the right path."

My sister said firmly.

What was included was not only trust in her, but also some deeper emotions.

"...I don't know, but if Barbara and everyone else expects this..."

At this moment, another inappropriate voice sounded.

“What if others disagree?”

They all looked at the newcomer.

That was Eula who was ready to go. She was a little taller, almost the same height as Qin, but she had a calm and confident temperament that Qin did not have.

She looked at Qin, who seemed to be lost in thought, with a scrutinizing look in her eyes.

"If you can't even figure out your own direction and can't fulfill your responsibility to use this power, then return it to me."

“I’ve answered this question many times.”

Qin replied in a low voice.

"I must fulfill Yuya's wish. This is the oath I swore by the name of Gunhild. Please forgive me for not being able to obey you."

"I knew you would say that—" Eula flicked her wrist lightly, and a gorgeous giant sword with a blue string blade appeared: "In my childhood memories, it seems that we always fought over this matter."

"So are you going to continue now? We have grown up and walked a long way on behalf of her who could not grow up. Do you want her to worry about us now?"

Qin pursed her lips and frowned, as if she was quite dissatisfied with her behavior of drawing the sword in front of the girl's grave.

"Stop talking like you understand my sister."

Eula replied coldly.

“…Sister Eula, that’s too much!”

Barbara didn't want to see them fighting, nor did she want to be disapproved of by her relatives.

However, other people's voices were heard again around.

"I think Miss Eula's words are a bit blunt, but they are indeed true."

Kaia had a playful smile on his face, as if he was ready to see a great show.

"Besides, we also have doubts about whether you, Jean, are qualified to take over the post of acting Grand Master. Now is a good time for you two to compete and see who is more suitable to lead the Knights after the Grand Master's expedition—"

"There are too many meaningless things surrounding you."

Even Diluk was standing aside with his arms folded and a stern expression.

"This has prevented you from seeing your true enemy clearly, and even now, it has prevented you from seeing your true responsibilities clearly."

Qin, who was forced to the top of the cliff, turned pale and looked at her friends who were once as close as comrades-in-arms with some disbelief.

"...Did you guys plan this in advance?"

"It is because of this slowness that you have not discovered it yet."

Eula pointed the sword downward and leaned forward slightly, like a guerrilla knight about to launch a charge, with sharp eyes.

"It's time to put an end to this, Jean. Once and for all."

Chapter 137: Freedom Ends

In terms of strength alone, Eula, who has served as a guerrilla knight for a long time and has rich combat experience, can be called the number one person under the grand commander.

But Qin Yi is no ordinary person either. It is important to understand that her strength has never been weak, and even her combat experience is not much worse than Eula's.

Even though she usually assists the Grand Commander in maintaining order in the city, she is also born in Gunhild and has experienced difficult training since childhood. She is not only extremely talented, but also works so hard that even Eula is ashamed of herself.

Now she was given the title of "Dandelion Knight". This was enough to represent the gold content of her own strength. In terms of swordsmanship alone, I am afraid that the people present would not be able to get any advantage from her.

However, on the one hand, Qin could not let go of her hands and feet when facing Eula. On the other hand, because her sister's Eye of God was in someone else's body, she always protected her, so Eula could not use her full strength.

Her original intention had never been to fight a life-and-death battle with Qin.

I just want to tell the other party through fighting that as a swordsman, in addition to the sword in hand, one should also sharpen one's own will.

Otherwise, according to Mondstadt's current situation, Jean, as the "Dandelion Knight", would soon be promoted from squad leader to deputy captain.

The fact that the Grand Master was preparing for an expedition was no secret within the Knights of Favonius. When that day came, Jean, as the deputy Grand Master, would naturally take on the role of acting Grand Master.

This position represents not only the pinnacle of Mondstadt's military power, but also a solid shield that protects Mondstadt and its freedom.

In an international situation where the Fools are constantly stirring up trouble outside, there are traitors inside - the former Inspector General's allies waiting for an opportunity to strike.

If Mondstadt is to survive safely and its people to live and work in peace and contentment, the challenges that Jyn faces are unprecedentedly huge.

There was not much time left for her to hesitate or worry.

Before it's too late, Eula must wake her up. If she can't do it, then she will take her sister's belongings away even if she has to rob them.

After that, it was nothing more than traveling around the world to realize what my sister and I talked about when we were children and to see the scenery outside Mondstadt.

She has done enough for Mond over the years and has long since repaid the favor of the Grand Master.

It's time to free yourself from this burden and flow like the waves.

That’s why——

The swords overlap each other, and the force they exert on the swords is an extension of their will.

Eula stared at Qin closely, and she did the same.

"Tell me, Jyn. What is it that you are fighting for?

Is it the responsibility that comes with this honor, or is it the ancestral precepts imposed on you by your family?"

"Protect Mondstadt forever. This is my philosophy that I want to carry out to the end!"

Qin's attitude was firm.

"Does the things you want to protect also include her share?"

Eula increased her strength, forcing Qin to retreat. After all, a one-handed sword has a natural disadvantage compared to a two-handed sword.

The flexibility and grace brought by the one-handed sword is just an obstacle that has already been overcome in front of Eula, who also wields the two-handed sword like a sword dance, and the terrain here is also not suitable for fighting.

Qin's gaze also drifted at this moment, and she noticed the pure white flower quietly blooming beside the tombstone.

She took a deep breath, her eyes became more determined, and she even pushed back.

"I've said it before. Yuya's wish is to protect Barbara, a precious thing that even death cannot separate.

As long as I am alive and can wield this sword in my hand, and until the day comes when this Eye of God becomes dim, I will move forward with this wish."

The wind pressure swirling around the blade was finally released, forcing Eula back, but there was no reluctance on her face. Instead, she reached out her hand to touch the breeze that brushed across her body.

Then, she clenched her hands as if catching a wisp of wind.

"Hmph. That's a pretty good answer, but don't think I lost to you—"

Youla raised her eyebrows slightly, with a hint of pride on her pretty face.

"Just wait. If you show weakness again, I will quickly take away everything you have."

After saying that, she was about to leave.

However, Kaiya scratched his head and asked, "Now that you are here, why don't you talk to Youya? You were so angry just now, maybe you would scare her."

"Kaia."

Diluk gave him a disapproving look.

Even Eula paused slightly, and then snorted and said without turning her head.

"The relationship between Youya and I is not what you can imagine. She won't blame me for such a small matter, and in the final analysis..."

Her voice dropped a little.

"She can't hear anymore."

The atmosphere among the crowd became depressed after hearing this. Only Barbara forced a smile to cheer everyone up.

……

In fact, you can hear it, or rather, when seeing this scene with a strong sense of déjà vu, Youya didn't know what expression to use to face everyone.

Since being buried, she was not thrown directly into the next life, but was given a certain amount of free time.

Although specifically speaking, it's just seeing everyone feeling sad for themselves, which makes them feel uncomfortable. After all, this state can neither be detected nor attract other people's attention, even if they have been tossing and turning for the whole day.

There was no way to draw everyone's attention to her existence, and she could only pretend that she was the one who touched others when Qin occasionally used the power of the Eye of God.

And sometimes when Barbara cried secretly at night, he would stay by her side.

During this time, she has seen many changes, witnessing Diluk and Kaeya's breakup and reunion.

Watch the former transform from a simple-minded, righteous young man into the dark knight who is now solving the real culprit behind the undercurrent.

Seeing the latter feeling guilty and unwilling to become a spy of another country and trample on the beauty of the past, he chose to protect Mond together.

One liked to visit her in the morning, put down some daisies, and talk about things in the tavern and his concerns about the future situation.

One who liked to visit her in the evening, put down a few bottles of wine, and mutter about how he was under too much pressure and that he should just be a sinecure clerk.

There are many, many people I once knew, each of whom has taken a different path in life.

For example, Fischl, who was devastated by her departure and fell into deep fantasy, she still often chats with her imaginary self today.

Sometimes she would stay by her side and chat with her, and the symptoms were not alleviated until the night crow named Oz appeared.

Although there were some jokes at the beginning, for example, when they wanted to name Oz Youya, they felt that it was not a black cat, but a night crow, and a male one, so they had to give up in disappointment.

And then there is Amber, who has become strong and reliable, as if to preserve all her childhood memories.

The childish girl gradually grew into a lively young woman, and after Grandpa An left, she quickly grew into a qualified scout knight.

She is hardworking, empathetic, and believes that there are things she can do.

When she obtained the Eye of God, she also found Diluk, hoping to borrow the "Wave Chaser" that was stored with him, so that she could experience the feeling of flying with Youya again.

Although it did fly, and it was just like the first flight, soaring into the sky like a rocket, but in terms of the result.
