Genshin Impact: Please don’t bully me, fellow stragglers

"This is the price of being purified." Knowing her exact end date, the turbid water elf slumped in her arms dejectedly. "It's because this body is about to collapse that I have no choice but to come back here and survive. I don't know. , can you wait until the day when Fontaine is submerged..."

"Now there are only two of us left here, can you tell me the truth?" Nanke held it and turned back to the tower.

The girl's voice was gentle and clear, accompanied by the sound of light footsteps, echoing endlessly on the complicated downward stone steps.

The turbid water elf was silent for a long time, and then suddenly made an irrelevant statement: "Don't say that - little nymph, even if I only have three days left, there is no way I can really fall in love with you."

Nanke paused slightly and considered: "...Thank you. But, I have a lover."

The sluggish water element lines began to surge in the body of the muddy water elf again: "...most of what I said before is the truth. However, I don't care about the prophecy, but look forward to it coming soon. You know the reason - I'm dying."

A soul that has been eroded by darkness cannot return to the sea of ​​stars and enter reincarnation.

In this case, no matter what he did before his death, he could be forgiven.

What's more, it is about to fall apart, just holding on to hope secretly and selfishly——

Fukalos is too idealistic, and a world where everyone can be saved is impossible to come. In this case, he hopes that this country, which will eventually be destroyed, can die with him.

And the person next to me - the beautiful person I dreamed of, whom I never had the chance to meet when I was Junsui.

It would be best to stay with him in this high tower, stay together for the rest of his life, and die in the same cave.

"Lady Egolia has three attendants," the turbid water elf said in a low voice. "Fukalos was designated as the successor of the god. The other one died in the sea of ​​flowers in a foreign country with the master. Only I - at that juncture , because she committed the crime of greed, she was stripped of her name by Lady Egoria herself and spent time in prison."

People's origins vary greatly.

The same goes for pure water.

As an elf born with Egolia from the primordial sea, it was born noble.

Some people overcome thorns and thorns and rise to the top of the clouds, while others are deceived by drunkenness and wealth and fall into the clouds.

The same goes for pure water.

Friends love human intelligence and strength, while it loves the physical beauty of human beings in all kinds of styles.

It is reasonable for the mind to be dominated by passionate emotions.

Unconditionally give your lovers everything beyond common sense - love, money, strength, power.

At that time, he was supported and sought after by people.

The eyes that are bewildered by beauty have never thought about the two sides of the world, and who is gnashing their teeth and swallowing blood behind the "good" side.

A person who is cut off from love and despairs.

A person who was robbed of his family property and became down and out.

People who are deprived of their power and driven crazy.

People who are forced to commit suicide by power.

When Egoria listed the sins committed by the beautiful humans it favored.

When it was also deprived of love, money, strength, and power, it saw its former lover and today's sinners being executed one by one.

How have you begun to realize - have you done something wrong?

So Pure Water asked: "Lady Egolia, the most perfect and beautiful lord, the master of all water - is there anything wrong with beauty?"

Egolia didn't give it an answer, but ordered it to be taken to the dark hell and punished by being grounded for an unlimited time.

A long, long time later, I forgot why I was released. I only remembered that my long-lost colleague was holding the holy sword of God and standing in front of the large rotating cardinals.

Fukalos said——

The former water god and a respectable companion died in order to save the past.

And I will devote myself to the future.

Now, Fontaine will be left to you.

This was not a commission - just because he was a sinner - so it was an atonement for which he should have died.

The moment when he was bitten to pieces by the last wave of beasts and pulled into darkness.

Pure water looks back at the sun-drenched city-state far away from the sea.

I thought vaguely - ah, it is... so beautiful.

"However... is there any difference between the beauty that I once indulged in and the beauty that I devoted everything to protect?"

The muddy water spirit whispered.

"I can't understand it. After being a monster for so many years, I can't understand it even more."

"Little nymph."

The ancient bookshelf casts a shadow like a deep forest. The turbid water elf looked at the side face traced by the candlelight, with downcast eyes and a quiet profile.

"You are the last beauty in my life, can you answer it for me?"

Nanke focused on the book in his hand, and even the rhythm of his breathing did not waver due to it.

People in this state may not even listen to its confused apology.

Unwilling to give up, the turbid water elf looked at her until the fingertips that landed on the corner of the page curled up slightly, as if about to turn to the next page, but then paused casually as the reader raised his eyes.

Nanke finally turned his head and looked back at it.

"There is no absolute beauty or ugliness in the world." She said seriously, "There are just likes and dislikes."

Nan Ke once lost interest in everything in the world.

Except for South Italy. Nanyi is the best in the world, better than anyone and anything.

Later, she lost Nanyi and saw more.

Find someone to love once again.

Nanke is the type of person who cannot live alone.

Therefore, her world is constantly collapsing and reshaping, which she feels particularly deeply.

"The person I like now has too many cracks in his body, but in my eyes, he is the most beautiful thing in the world." Nanke unconsciously rubbed the footer of the book, "Those who don't like him, hate him People, people who fear him, people who pity him, people who also love him... they all exist, and their opinions of him are a part of him, a part of him that makes me like him even more."

"What if he is really a person who has done all kinds of bad things?" asked the turbid water elf.

"I will atone with him."

"What if he's going to ruin everything?"

"I'll take him out of here."

Nanke's eyes reflected the candlelight, and a small patch of light remained unwavering.

The turbid water elf looked into her eyes for a long time and sighed: "How determined."

"Such an existence exists in your heart, doesn't it?" Nanke asked softly.

The turbid water elf turned his body and faced the dense darkness directly ahead, without answering.

Nanke then lowered his head and continued reading.

There are many books in the Wangli Library. Although many of the ancient knowledge in them are slightly delayed and obscure, they are more valuable experiences lost in the disaster.

For example.

The library also has a collection of unique books on the Yin-Yang style barrier technique.

if possible.

Learn as much as you can within three days, plus what you learned from Miss Xiang and Awang before.

Even if the barrier outside the tower cannot be broken, it should be able to shake it.

Since gaining the ability to realize dreams from Nasida, dreaming has begun to replace eating and become one of Nanke's nutrients to maintain his body.

Nan Ke pinched his tired brows and leaned against the bookshelf for a short rest while closing his eyes and continuing to calculate the formation of the barrier.

Unknowingly, I fell into dreamland again.

This time I no longer dream about the remaining old shadows in the tower.

Under the sun, the fountain splashed with sparkling drops of water.

The shadows of the green trees cover the snow-white load-bearing pillars in front of the building. In the unobstructed hall, blue satin embroidered with gold threads hangs everywhere.

Many graceful shadows swayed among them. The well-proportioned arms and slender waist are like flowers swaying in the breeze.

Something left among those people and walked toward Nanke.

The arms are wrapped in gauze and covered with jeweled armbands, which jingle like bells.

The smooth silver hair is delicately braided and hangs down on the left side of the shoulder blade, flickering with every step.

Looking upwards, there is a pair of water-transparent and light blue eyes.

With a smile on his face, the visitor passed through Nanke's illusory body and stepped into the shining sunlight of the outside world.

A scene out of a dream.

There seemed to be a gentle touch brushing across Nanke's cheek.

"...Whether it's a beauty or a city," he sighed softly, "my lover has never changed. He is the same as all sentient beings."

Even if the way you love someone is astray and sinful.

Even if it is dyed black by the abyss, it has long been impossible to transcend.

The reason for keeping Nanke is selfish.

It's just because Nanke is the "person" she loves.

That's it.

……

Nanke was woken up by someone pinching his face.

Open your eyes to see the solemn doomsday clock on the ceiling.

In the silence, the sound of mechanical gears turning was soft and low.

"Click."

The sword-shaped pointer, which stood at the moment just before midnight, suddenly and rapidly moved forward without warning at this moment.

The sharp sword tip was about to cross the zero point.

The hands suddenly vibrated, buzzing continuously, almost stopping at the last minute before midnight.

Nanke sat up in shock: "What... happened outside?"

Nanke stopped in shock.

She subconsciously thought that there was someone beside her.

Turning around, he saw only a quiet turbid water elf.

I don't know if it's due to the dim light or other reasons, but its water element seems to be more turbid.

There is no difference between it and the monster turbid water elves in the Ilyel Forest.

Nanke was shocked and stretched out his hand to it: "Are you still there?"

The soft membrane wrapping the elements was very elastic and slightly dented under Nanke's fingertips. Zhuoshui turned half of his body to look at her, his round eyes dumbfounded.

Then it raised a hand and waved happily to her.

Nanke's chest was slightly choked.

The consciousness of pure water inside has completely disappeared.

Why? It's obviously not three days yet.

Nanke stood up, and her thoughts about the barrier before falling asleep resurfaced. She suddenly realized something, her movements were certain, and she couldn't help but open her eyes and look around.

……right here.

The formation of the barrier is right here.

Nanke exhaled gently, leaned over and picked up the Turbid Water Elf, and said sincerely: "Thank you."
