"Yes, time flies."

The dishes were served, and the two ended the dinner with emotion.

After Keqing left to continue working, Arthur in the room began to sigh that time passed so quickly. He thought about how two months had passed since he first arrived in Teyvat, and he had grown from an ordinary person to his current level.

Thinking back to the beginning, he was just an ordinary person who needed Ying's rescue, but now, he has become the new God of Wind, and can stand at the top of the crowd with his own strength.

Keqing's words woke me up. I have been here for so long, and I can't help but ask myself, what is my goal?

Back then, life in Mondstadt was very fulfilling. I solved dragon plagues with Ying, went to ruins, or participated in investigations. I met many people and achieved achievements that a person could never achieve in a lifetime. But what was my own pursuit? Ever since I inherited the throne of the God of Wind, I began to lose my pursuit. I used to pay so much attention to the system's lottery, but now I seldom take the initiative to hoard original stones to draw cards, even though I can do it easily with my current identity.

Do you like reading? Maybe, but mostly to kill time.

Do you like cooking? I am a little interested, but mostly just for the enjoyment of life.

What is my goal? Thinking about it, since I came here, I seem to have been drifting with the flow. Because the first person I met was Ying, I came to Mondstadt with Ying and started my own life. It was because of Ying's goals and the system's tasks that I moved forward all the way.

But that is not my goal, at least not the goal that I am directly pursuing in my heart.

So what do you want?

Arthur laughed when he thought of this, he had been bound by the rules for too long, the modern rules and regulations, the tasks arranged in the game, and he had been following the routine for too long.

What I pursue is a life without restraints and the ability to indulge myself. This is the life I want.

I did it because I wanted to. Didn’t I come to Liyue because I couldn’t stand the monotonous life in Mondstadt? Didn’t I come to Liyue because I knew the disaster was about to happen?

I have the ability to stop it, and the system has never ordered me to interfere with it. If I had stopped Zhongli's plan, the system would not have made any mistakes but would have operated normally.

I was just following the instinct running in my blood, the instinct of war, the instinct that was restrained by law and peace.

I just wanted to fight the real devil, so I didn't organize anything to happen. Other so-called contracts and tasks were just incidental.

After recognizing himself, Arthur felt that he had been sublimated. Without the constraints of rules and leaving the peaceful world, his nature of liking fun and fighting slowly emerged, but it was suppressed by common sense. Keqing's sigh today made him find his original self again.

[Congratulations to the host for seeing himself clearly. Here is a gift from the "tree" for you. ]

"Oh, a gift?"

When I opened the system, I saw a package that was clearly a gift.

After opening it, the contents were revealed.

[Invitation from Honkai. You can choose to leave the world you are in and go to the Honkai world. The invitation is a one-way ticket and cannot bring anyone else. It can only be used by Arthur himself. ]

"Oh, the Honkai world? The Honkai world does allow me to experience the joy of fighting more than Teyvat, but it's a one-way ticket. I have no plans to leave now."

Without using this gift from the "tree", there are still things I want to touch in Teyvat. Now is not the time to leave. Moreover, when I reach the world of Collapse, my strength may not be enough. It is better to increase my strength to the end of this world before leaving.

Because the worries and mental constraints that had troubled him had disappeared, Arthur slept particularly soundly today. Even when Keqing left the next morning, Arthur hadn't woken up yet.

Chapter 93: Ganyu Fainted

Once again, he slept until noon. This time, after Arthur got up, he did not look for Ying and Zhongli. After all, he did not want to continue being a tool with Ying. Now that Ying had obtained the Eternal Life Incense, Ying, who had met Keqing in advance because of his existence, must have already ascended to the Jade Pavilion.

I guess Tartaglia is also ready. When Ying leaves the Jade Pavilion, the contract between him and Zhongli is reached.

"I'm in a good mood today, let's go to the Hall of Rebirth to play with Walnut!"

I guess Keqing is still working overtime. If Xiangling goes there, she will be caught and asked to study slime dishes. It’s better for her to go find Hutao to play.

Thinking of this, Arthur left his residence and headed towards the Hall of Rebirth.

"Master Hu? She's out."

Arthur came to the Hall of the Dead and did not see Hu Tao. Then he asked other people and found out that not only Zhongli but also Hu Tao had gone out early this morning.

As for what to do, they had no idea.

"After all, she is Hall Master Hu. She is capable of anything."

Since no one was seen in the Wangsheng Hall, he was probably promoting his Wangsheng Hall package in the Adventurer's Association or stealing Qiqi from Bubulu again.

Since Hu Tao was not seen in the Wangsheng Hall, it would be difficult for me to find Hu Tao. After all, no one knows where Hu Tao's movements are.

After leaving the Hall of Rebirth and walking onto the street, I looked at the streets where nothing had changed, as if the death of the emperor a few days ago had never happened, and everyone's life was still going on as normal.

Last night I had a clear understanding of myself and my lofty ambitions were extinguished by ordinary life today.

"So free!"

It's such a painful feeling to know that something big is about to happen around you and you can do something about it, but it hasn't happened yet. You can't leave easily, and there's no way to speed up the flow of time.

I walked aimlessly on the road like this until a staggering figure came towards me.

"sorry."

"Don't worry about it, Wang Xiaomei."

Arthur actually met Ganyu on the road. It was Ganyu who just staggered towards him. His dodgment perfectly overlapped with Ganyu's swing direction, and finally the two collided with each other, but the physical fitness of both of them was not that of ordinary people.

Even though Ganyu looked like she was about to fall asleep at any moment, she would not fall on the side of the road just because of a simple collision while walking.

"Um, who is Wang Xiaomei? I am Ganyu."

Ganyu finally came to her senses a little after bumping into someone. When she heard Arthur's name, she directly refuted Wang Xiaomei's name and gave her own name.

When he looked up at the person in front of him, he remembered Arthur's name from his chaotic memory.

"Mr. Arthur, I'm sorry, I'm a little too sleepy."

Because of the death of the Emperor, Ganyu, who had signed a contract with the Emperor, has been unable to accept the sad news of the Emperor's departure. She can only constantly pressure herself with work to stop herself from thinking about the sad news. However, Ganyu's own workload is not small, and now she forces herself to work overtime. After a few days, even Ganyu, who is half human, half immortal, has dark circles under her eyes.

A few days ago, Ganyu was responsible for leading Ying to the Jade Pavilion at Ningguang's request. Ningguang's original intention was to let Ganyu take some time off from work to relax, but just after notifying Ying, Ganyu found that Ying had disappeared behind him without knowing when.

Before I knew it, I had arrived at the market.

(Ying: How come Miss Ganyu, who just said she would lead the way for me, disappeared in the blink of an eye?)

"Why don't you go and rest for a while? I feel like you're about to die!"

Rather, it is surprising that Ganyu did not die suddenly in her current condition. She has thick dark circles under her eyes, weak feet, unsteady walking, and even temporarily lost consciousness. If Ganyu was not a half-immortal, I am afraid that by now they could have prepared Ganyu's funeral without waiting for the Rock King Emperor's farewell ceremony.

"Don't rush to boost the sales of Wangsheng Hall!"

Watching Ganyu swaying in place again, it seemed that she was losing her mind again. It felt like if no one cared about her, Ganyu would faint on the road at any time.

"Forget it, I'll just be a good person."

After all, they were on the street, and he couldn't feel at ease seeing Ganyu in this state, so he brought the staggering Ganyu to the Hall of Rebirth. After saying hello to other people, he took Ganyu to the Hall of Rebirth to rest.

"Ms. Ganyu is so tired."

"Yes, if Mr. Arthur hadn't said that Miss Ganyu was still alive, I would have thought that Miss Ganyu had died suddenly and came to the Hall of the Dead to handle her funeral."

"Bah, bah, bah, don't talk nonsense."

Amid the discussion of the others, Arthur brought Ganyu to the Hall of Rebirth. In addition to Hu Tao and Zhongli's rooms, there were also rooms for other employees, but no one would live here. There were also some guest rooms prepared for guests.

He brought Ganyu to the guest room, helped her down and slowly put her on the bed.

Watching Ganyu fall asleep, he lifted Ganyu's soft and elastic little feet with his hands, then took off the shoes on her feet, slowly moved Ganyu's legs, put on the quilt and covered her.

Arthur used the holy light effect of the cleansing spell on Ganyu for the first time in a long time. Although it didn't have much healing effect on outsiders, it could at least help Ganyu recover a little, instead of looking like she was about to die at any time.

After everything was done, Arthur watched Ganyu's face slowly regain color, then he sat down next to her and looked at Ganyu who had fallen asleep.

Although staying up late for a long time brought dark circles under her eyes, it could no longer conceal Ganyu's outstanding appearance.

Looking at Ganyu lying on the bed, her long blue hair was casually spread out because she was lying on the bed. Even when she was asleep, there was still a strand of hair standing between the two black and red small unicorn horns on both sides of her head.

Because of the quilt, only her arms and slender black silk legs were exposed to the air. Her hands were covered with white sleeves and a pair of black gloves, and her arms as white as jade were exposed.

Because Arthur took off Ganyu's shoes after going to bed, all that could be seen was a pair of legs wrapped in black stockings. Because she was sleeping very soundly, her feet wrapped in black stockings were quietly leaning against the fence at the end of the bed.

Arthur, who was sitting beside Ganyu's bed, even seemed to smell the refreshing milky scent coming from Ganyu.

He remembered that Keqing mentioned the Coconut Sheep the day before yesterday, and Ying also mentioned the Coconut Sheep when they went to Guizhongji yesterday. Now Ganyu was by his side, and their words came back to Arthur's mind.

Look at the mountain that is still standing tall even though it is covered by the quilt.

Suddenly, past memories flooded into my mind, and the first thing that came to my mind was the emoticon of Ganyu opening the lid and drinking it when Shenhe was first released.

Because after Ganyu fell asleep, the mountain formed by the quilt seemed to have magic, attracting Arthur's attention, as if something that would be judged by Yan Fei would happen in the next moment.

"I am back!"

In the end, it was the sound of Walnut returning that woke him up and prevented him from going down the path of crime.

Chapter 94: When the sun comes out, I bask in the sun. When the moon comes out, I tie up Qiqi.

"Hey, it's really Miss Ganyu!"

Knowing that Arthur brought Ganyu here, he turned into the guest room when he didn't see Ganyu in the living room. Then he saw Ganyu lying on the bed, while Arthur was sitting aside, immersed in a sea of ​​books.

Arthur seemed to be immersed in the ocean of books and unable to extricate himself, but in fact he said in his heart, "That was a close call!" If it weren't for Walnut's lively personality and if she hadn't said hello before coming back, he would have been taken away by Walnut as a prisoner.

I guess the news before the arrival of the devil tomorrow will be: Keqing, a guest, attempted to molest Miss Ganyu of Yuehai Pavilion, but was stopped by the brave and righteous leader of the Wangsheng Hall, Hu Tao.

If the Department of Shock existed, the headline of the news should be: Shocked, a man named Ya, who is called a hero, would actually do such a thing!

But there is no if.

As the head of the Wangsheng Hall, Hu Tao knew some medical skills. He walked over to Ganyu, took a stool and sat down, then checked Ganyu's condition. After making sure that there was nothing serious, he took Arthur to the living room to chat.

"There's nothing wrong with Miss Ganyu. She's just overworked. I just came back and heard that you sent Ganyu here. I thought you were using Miss Ganyu to boost my sales."

"Don't make trouble."

Seeing Hu Tao acting like a good friend and wanting to put his arm around me, I really feel a little uncomfortable. Although the master has a flat chest at a young age, if he really puts his arm around me like this...

There doesn't seem to be any sense of disobedience.

Since Ganyu had nothing to do, the two of them didn't disturb her to rest. They closed the door of the guest room and walked out of the living room. Then Hu Tao told everyone not to let anyone else go behind the Hall of Rebirth. If Ganyu woke up, they should just let her rest.

Judging from Ganyu's age, she is probably as old as Hu Tao's ancestor. Although Hu Tao sells various funeral packages from the Hall of the Rebirth to everyone she meets, she still has respect for this seven-star secretary who has lived for an unknown amount of time.

In fact, the real reason is that in Ganyu's situation, if she really passed away, a farewell ceremony would be held, and there is no need for her to promote herself.

After leaving the Hall of the Dead, Hu Tao began to complain to herself why no one had asked her to book a funeral package. Everyone will die in the end, so why not leave a way out for herself in advance.

As an employee benefit, everyone who joined the Hall of the Rebirth was given the best funeral package by Hutao for free. Even Arthur, who became friends with Hutao because of Xiangling and Zhongli, was given the best package service.

According to Hu Tao, as long as one day you leave, no matter where you are, the Hall of Rebirth will be responsible for taking you back to your hometown and sending you to the afterlife.

But Hu Tao could never have dreamed that their guest official was the God of Geo himself. Before he died, the ceremony to send him off had already been prepared. Arthur's hometown was not in Teyvat, and given Arthur's situation, the Hall of Rebirth might have become a thing of the past. Arthur and Zhongli also missed their old friends together.

Although Hu Tao has suffered setbacks all the time, it has not affected her confidence.

"Arthur, I'll leave the final performance of the Immortal Ceremony to you. Whether Wangsheng Hall can achieve higher performance in the future depends entirely on your performance!"

"give it to me!"

Hu Tao didn't know that because of her words, she almost scared the people who participated in the ceremony of sending off the immortals half to death. As a result, not only did her performance not increase much, but she also received criticism and education for a period of time.

"Where are you going?"

As the direction getting farther and farther away from the market, this route either leads to Yuehai Pavilion, Bubuluo, or leaves Liyue Harbor and heads to Tianheng Mountain.

Walnut would definitely not go to Yuehai Pavilion, so Arthur had a guess in his mind, and Walnut's words just confirmed Arthur's guess.

"Let's go catch Qiqi!"

As expected, she is worthy of being called Walnut. Her daily life is either working or selling funeral packages and trying to bury Qiqi.

Even when Qiqi turned into a zombie and could not remember what happened in her life, and could remember almost nothing without the amnesty order, she still retained her fear of Hutao. This shows what Hutao did to Qiqi that could make Qiqi remember Hutao through her physical memory.

But Arthur did not stop Walnut's behavior. If it were before, Arthur might have made an excuse to leave or changed the subject to take Walnut away with him, but Arthur, who had already let himself go, naturally would not refuse Walnut's request.

"Did you bring the hemp rope? Did you bring the sack? Did you bring the shovel?"

Faced with Arthur's three consecutive qualities, Hu Tao was the first to be confused. How come Arthur seemed more skilled than herself? However, Hu Tao proved that she was the professional.

In addition to hemp ropes, sacks and shovels, Walnut also prepared bandages, chains, and even took out a strange object. Then Walnut reacted quickly and put it away.

"That's all, nothing more."

Although Walnut said so, but if Arthur was not mistaken, it seemed that what Walnut took out and put away in the end was a ball gag?

Hu Tao was already prepared to respond even when Qi Qi started talking about it, so why was it a ball gag?
