Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat
Chapter 181 The Person Who Gives Forgiveness
The early morning sun shone gently on Mondstadt. Shao Yun sat at a table outside the Deer Hunter Restaurant, enjoying a quiet breakfast time.
Just then, a burst of hurried footsteps broke the silence around him, and the figures of Eula and Amber appeared in his sight.
Eula looked a little tired, but tried hard to maintain her calm appearance, while Amber looked worried and held Eula's hand tightly.
"Amber, I'm really fine." Eula tried to break free from Amber's grip, with a hint of helplessness in her tone, "You don't have to follow me all the time."
Amber was unmoved. She hugged Eula's arm tightly and said, "You cried so sadly last night. How could I leave you alone? You suddenly said that everything is fine today. How can I believe it?"
Eula took a deep breath and calmed herself down.
"I've figured it out, Amber. I've figured it out. All my relatives deserve to die!"
However, Amber's words once again touched the pain deep in Eula's heart.
"Are you kidding me? Last night you were saying that Lesig shouldn't die!"
Youla was about to open her mouth to refute, but suddenly found her eyes meeting Shao Yun not far away.
At that moment, a complex emotion surged in her heart, including fear, surprise, and a hint of imperceptible panic.
She was stunned, and all her thoughts were attracted by Shao Yun's deep eyes.
"Eula, you are..."
Amber followed Eula's gaze and found Shao Yun who was having dinner. She immediately realized that Eula's abnormality might be related to Shao Yun.
"Eula, let's go, don't look over there!"
Amber wanted to pull Eula away quickly, but she didn't react and focused her attention on Shao Yun.
Shao Yun slowly put down the cutlery in his hand, turned his gaze calmly to Amber and Youla, waved his hand, and said in a calm tone: "Hello, come and have something to eat, it's my treat."
Youla struggled internally for a moment, and finally decided to face Shao Yun directly.
She walked up to Shao Yun step by step, bit her lower lip tightly, and tried to suppress the grief and anger in her heart. She asked in a trembling voice: "Why did you kill Lesig? I must know the answer!"
Seeing this, Amber hurried forward to stop Eula. She covered Eula's mouth with her hand, fearing that she would anger him. She whispered to dissuade him: "Eula, don't do this! You will anger him!"
However, Eula pulled Amber's hand away with force. She looked straight at Shao Yun and questioned him unwillingly.
"Answer me! Why did you kill Lesig? He is not an unforgivable person! He delivered messages for you and even begged you for a way out, but why did you kill him anyway!"
What is supposed to come will eventually come.
"So, what do you mean?" There was no anger or excuse in Shao Yun's eyes, only a deep calmness.
"He, I, I believe you are not the kind of person who kills people, but why did you kill Lesig!" Eula's voice became incoherent because of excitement, but every word she said revealed her trust and confusion towards Shao Yun.
She believed that Shao Yun was not a cold-blooded person, but she could not understand why Shao Yun killed Lessig. Lessig had already known his mistake, so why did he have to suffer such a fate?
Shao Yun picked up the tissue and wiped the corners of his mouth. He looked calmly into Eula's eyes, examining her.
Then, he slowly spoke in a calm, almost cold voice, "He said that he had long known that the Lawrence family had bought a batch of guns to rebel. He just knew that I was the 'untouchable' and was afraid."
Eula cried out, "But he knew his mistake and corrected it. He didn't go against you!"
Shao Yun nodded and said calmly: "He may not have thought of going against me, but..."
He changed the subject and uttered those four words in a sonorous and powerful voice.
"He was there too!"
These three words exploded in Youla's ears like thunder. She looked at Shao Yun in horror at his eyes that were determined to devour anyone. She never expected that Shao Yun would show her no mercy at all.
She took a half step back, then ran out crying.
Seeing this, Amber quickly chased after him, shouting, "Eula, wait for me!"
Shao Yun looked at the two people leaving, sighed softly, and said to Sarah, the waitress of the Deer Hunter: "Miss Sarah, I'm done eating."
……
Shao Yun left the Deer Hunter Restaurant and was on his way home, but the system suddenly popped up a prompt.
[You need to go to the cemetery behind the West Wind Cathedral to see Lessig's grave.]
Looking at the text that popped up on the system, Shao Yun replied in a cold tone: "I refuse. I don't regret killing people. If I am guilty, I hope I will die miserably, be hanged on the gallows, or be killed by a more powerful person. I will gladly accept it and regard it as fate's punishment for me!"
[Eastern Legend Challenge 4: The One Who Gives Forgiveness]
[Lesig's soul is wandering in the world, you need to decide the fate of this lost soul]
[You have obtained a five-pointed star emblem. If you stick it on the tombstone with the right side up, you will forgive his soul; if you stick it on the tombstone with the wrong side up, his soul will be dedicated to the devil.]
[Whether you give his soul to the devil or forgive him, your choice will be forgiven]
[Rewards: Eastern Legend Set Fragment*1, New Weapon*1]
……
In the morning, the sun shone on the cemetery behind the West Wind Cathedral. The golden light penetrated the sparse clouds and illuminated this quiet and slightly sad land.
Wendy stood quietly in front of Lesig's grave, his figure looking particularly lonely in the interweaving of light and shadow.
Shao Yun did not bring Lesig's body back to the Lawrence family's villa and did not offer it as a sacrifice to the devil.
But Shao Yun forced Wendy to give up the souls of everyone except Eula, so Lesig's soul was also given up.
His soul neither fell into the hands of the devil, nor could he return to Mondstadt, the land he loved so much.
Wendy tried to take advantage of the time loophole and use the sound of his piano mixed with the breath of the god of wind to call Lesig's soul, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not bring Lesig back to Mond.
Despair and powerlessness came like a tide, drowning Wendy's heart.
He gently leaned his head against the cold tombstone, and tears slid down involuntarily, dripping onto the tombstone, splashing tiny water droplets.
"I'm so useless," he choked up, "I'm an incompetent wind god. I can't even protect my own people..."
At this moment, Shao Yun's figure quietly appeared beside him.
He stared at Wendy quietly. After a few minutes, Shao Yun broke the silence of the cemetery.
"Wendy."
Hearing this, Wendy suddenly raised her head, with a hint of panic in her eyes.
He quickly took a few steps back and wiped the tears from his face with his sleeve to conceal the purpose of his visit.
"I just came... to collect folk songs." He stammered, his voice full of embarrassment and uneasiness.
Shao Yun looked around, his eyes swept across the silent tombstones, and asked calmly: "Come to the cemetery to collect folk songs?"
Wendy was suddenly speechless, knowing that he could not come up with a more reasonable excuse.
He lowered his head, was silent for a moment, and then said slowly: "I...I just came to see him."
Shao Yun walked slowly to Wendy's side, and they stood side by side, their eyes fixed on the solemn and quiet tombstone of "Lesge Lawrence".
Wendy's eyes were slightly red. She turned to look at Shao Yun, with a barely perceptible tremor in her voice.
"Shao Yun, do you have a way to bring Lesig's soul back? If you have a way, I really beg you, I am willing to pay any price to get his soul back."
Shao Yun did not respond immediately after hearing this. Everything around him became unusually quiet, with only the breeze blowing through the grass and trees beside the tombstone, making a slight rustling sound.
Seeing that Shao Yun remained silent, Wendy mistakenly thought that he might need some clues or information, so she plucked up her courage.
"Five hundred years ago..."
As soon as Wendy said these four words, Shao Yun suddenly reached out and gently covered his mouth.
"Don't talk, I need silence now, let me think."
Wendy was a little stunned by Shao Yun's sudden action, but she still shut her mouth obediently and said no more.
Seeing this, Shao Yun slowly loosened his hand. Then he took off his hat, gently placed it on his chest, and stared at Lesig's tombstone again.
After a while, he slowly took out the five-pointed star emblem bestowed by the system from the Eastern Legend backpack.
The emblem sparkled in the sun, its golden light dazzling, and it contained some ancient and powerful power.
Shao Yun held the badge tightly, looked firmly at Lesig's tombstone and said, "I followed my heart and made my choice. I don't regret killing you. If I could go back to that moment, I would still make the same decision."
"You don't have the courage like Eula to rebel against your family. Although you didn't take the initiative to become my enemy, your presence forced you to bear the cost of this death."
After saying that, Shao Yun gently pressed the pentagram emblem in his hand on the tombstone.
The emblem was pulled by some force and firmly attached to the tombstone.
"However, I now choose to forgive your soul. You may think I am hypocritical and pretentious, but every decision I make comes from my heart."
"You can resent me and seek revenge, but please remember that revenge is only a fool's game. Unless you are absolutely sure that you can defeat me, please do not challenge me easily, and do not even think about hurting Ying and Paimon. If you really do that, I will make you regret it!"
As Shao Yun finished his words, the five-pointed star emblem suddenly dissipated in the air, turning into golden light and disappearing with the wind.
At this moment, a wisp of green wind blew quietly, and Wendy felt the special breath in this wind. He knew that Lesig's soul had returned to Mond.
Wendy clenched his fists, his eyes slightly red, and he whispered his gratitude to Shao Yun.
"Thank you."
Shao Yun patted Wendy's shoulder gently, left a few words and left.
"Don't say thank you. I don't deserve your thanks. The rats in the sewer are better than me."
……
[You chose to forgive Lessig's soul, but you don't know why you did it. Maybe you are really crazy.]
[Reward: Eastern Legend Set Fragment*1; High Roller Revolver]
[Extra Reward: Your Honor Points in Mondstadt reach the highest value, and your consumption will be reduced by 50%]
