Genshin Impact: Become a heart-stealing thief in the land of justice

"Oh? Are you trying to say that some prisoners and guards are already dissatisfied with Schiavore and others' garrison in Merlot Petersburg? This matter is big or small and needs to be planned in advance? Well... it is indeed necessary to think about it. "

In the office, Yu Shui had already told what he had seen and heard today in the shortest possible words. As expected, Leosli had the same view on the matter as he did.

There is no way to make them leave in a short time, and there is no way to announce the real reason to the public. Then...in addition to letting time digest these public opinions, you can also find another excuse to explain their arrival.

"How about reinforcing the external defense line of Merlot Petersburg? How about using words like this? It's not deceiving everyone, it's just blurring the target of defense and guiding the target to beings like me."

Perhaps sitting across from Leosley helped to keep Yu Shui's mind active. In about a minute, he came up with a simple external plan, which was also able to connect with things in the past. It was brilliant.

"Oh? Are you saying that it's to guard against thieves like you who come in and out of Merlot Petersburg at will? Good excuse, but now even you can't go out casually, right?"

Leosley rested his chin on one hand and looked at the white-haired young man holding a teacup in both hands with a half-smile. These words touched on a small thing in his mind.

Silent sigh.

"Huh... Sir Duke, do you think my identity and strength are good or bad? As you can see, I am now a dragon king with two parts of my body that are mutually exclusive. Because of my unwillingness to accept the power of the abyss, I... My power related to Yuanhai has also been contained.

But I worry that if I accept the power of the abyss, I will be unconsciously controlled by it just like what happened before. "

Being controlled by the power of the abyss, killing the hundred or so treasure thieves who followed Bao'er from Liyue to him after all the hard work was the biggest innocent killing Yu Shui had ever committed.

Although Bao'er himself was used by the will of the abyss to plot against him, those members of the treasure stealing group who knew nothing may not know this... there were even half-grown children among them.

Yu Shui never mentioned this matter during this period, but in fact, he had nightmares every night... afraid that he would do such a thing again after accepting the power of the abyss.

"Ok?"

Suddenly feeling the gentle force coming from his forehead, Yu Shui froze for a moment and broke away from his fantasy. Only then did he realize that when he was absent-minded, Leosley had silently walked behind him and asked for help. He pressed his head.

"So, you actually have a way to restore your power, but you don't dare to try it because of your scruples? I understand that right, right?"

Leosley is actually in a pretty good mood now, because he suddenly found that Yu Shui in front of him at this moment seemed to have become more complete... He used to behave like an actor who could never make mistakes, with superb acting skills It's remarkable, but how can a real person be like a perfect actor.

He will also have confusion and entanglement, as well as insurmountable fear, and a deep sense of inferiority in his heart...Leosli did not feel unhappy because Yu Shui showed these things, but he liked this person even more because of it.

"...You are right, I am timid. I am afraid that everything I have now will be lost again to the abyss. I...I have not experienced too much loss, because I usually don't get much, so I will be a little bit nervous now. … Hesitant.”

The white-haired young man sitting here now is just a coward in a perfect coat. He is not afraid of his own death, but he cares about the safety of those around him.

Yu Shui would not hesitate to make his own life a part of a grand performance, but he would not have the courage to design other people's lives.

"Ha~ In my opinion, being controlled by the power of the abyss is just because you were unconscious. You didn't even know you still had this power. Am I right?"

"Uh...yeah, wait a minute, you want to say that I used to be controlled by unknown forces because of my ignorance, but now that I am fully aware of it, it will be much easier to control these powers that belong to me?"

"You can figure it out, don't you? You've been over the top before. Look, I've been able to get through after just a few clicks. Isn't that awesome?"

"Hey...are you still showing off?"

Yu Shui took a long breath, finally... untying a knot in his heart?

"What's more, everything about you is under my eyes now. Except for the fact that I know everything about the situation, what are you afraid of? Could it be that you don't trust me."

"It depends on the situation. Sometimes you can be very mean to me. Don't forget how you lied to me in the old Fontaine Academy of Sciences."

"Tsk...don't mention that, think of something better."

When he mentioned that day, Leosli felt his head drop instantly. He patted Yu Shui's head gently to signal the end of the massage. Just as he was about to walk back, a certain fish hugged his waist from behind.

"Okay, okay, think of something good. I haven't finished telling you the story about my past before. I just want to tell you about Navia's childhood."

"Okay~ I'm quite curious about what the tough yellow rose in the Rose of Thorns Club looked like when she was a child."

"But before that, there seems to be some business to do, Lord Duke... Is it my turn to serve you tonight?"

Yu Shui, who had his head buried in Leosley's waist, chuckled ambiguously... The breath he exhaled made Leosley's side go numb and went straight to his head.

This guy... really thinks about himself all the time.

As for the incident he encountered on the Weingolai before... Yu Shui selectively did not inform Leosli, because after all, it was an attack from the abyss on him, and he could just deal with it or avoid it by himself.

He thought... the forces in the abyss wouldn't be bold enough to really attack the things he cared about, unless they really didn't want him as the Dragon King anymore.

……

Speaking of which, as an elemental dragon, Villette has two dragon whiskers disguised as hair growing on his head. So...does he also hide some dragon physiological characteristics?

This was what Yu Shui thought of while lying beside him in a daze after taking care of Leosli again in bed until he was unconscious.

Holding Xigwen's special heart-protecting pill in his mouth, he felt a warm current flowing into his heart, which was very comfortable.

Yu Shui raised his bare arms and looked around... Well, the two arms were very tight and tangible. Except for some unsightly scars, the rest were in the shape of normal humans.

He opened the quilt again and looked at his body... a human adult male with eight-pack abs, luxuriant hair and ample size, without even a tattoo.

"Huh? What are you doing... admiring your dog-waist figure?"

Leosley, who was lying on the edge, felt a chill when the corner of the quilt was lifted, so he hesitated and turned around to ask.

"No, I'm just curious. Don't I have some characteristics of a dragon? Even a little bit..."

"Don't worry about this. Maybe when the power starts to recover, everything that should happen will appear."

Well, that makes sense.
