In Genshin Impact, why are all the characters I play NPCs?

Holding Ling Hua's hand, Xu Guang led her outside.

"It seems like you're quite looking forward to it, in whatever sense."

After nodding and glancing around to make sure no one was there, Ling Hua pulled open her clothes at the thigh.

"I'm so excited! It's all wet here, so can you take me?"

Xu Guang had no resistance to such bold and straightforward remarks.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that someone like him would never refuse such a thing.

Hugging the other person, Xu Guang pointed to the flowers and plants.

"Sure, but the plants over there are a bit wilted. Let's go help them."

Ling Hua looked puzzled. What did he mean by "go help those plants"?

But she quickly understood.

Xu Guang picked her up from behind and then supported her with his hands behind her knees, just like when an adult helps a baby to use the toilet.

Xu Guang said gently from behind, "Do your best later, don't let these flowers down."

Having gone through so much, Linghua understood what this meant and nodded, blushing.

The sound of water was quite loud as it watered one plant after another. They even took a break along the way, and Xu Guang thoughtfully fed Ling Hua some 37-degree iced tea.

The effect is definitely there.

Meanwhile, inside the hot spring inn, the traveler curled up in bed, repeatedly reaching down and then pulling his hand back.

No, not now.

There's something inside; if you try to defend yourself, it will leak out.

She didn't know if Xu Guang would care, but she was worried that if things went wrong, he would refuse to pay the promised reward.

As for what the compensation is...

All I can say are some good things that will allow her to switch from manual to automatic transmission, and for that, the traveler is willing to wait.

Paimon, who was in the same room, let out a deep sigh.

Although I know that the traveler I initially liked has been slightly altered into an indescribable shape, this is still too strange. Will I have to change the sheets tomorrow?

The next day arrived quickly, and the gardening maid of the Kamisato family brought fertilizer to the flower garden. She had been busy for a while and hadn't been able to take good care of the garden, but now that she was done, the first thing she did was come to check if there were any problems.

To be fair, the Shinri family treated their servants very well, so most of the servants were very dutiful. If it weren't for the accident at home, she wouldn't have acted this way.

Upon arriving at the flowerbed, the gardening maid gazed at the vibrant blooms and fell into deep thought.

"Why do I feel like... I'm even better looking than before?"

It's strange, these flowers are very delicate. They will wilt if they are not cared for for a day, and if left for three to five days, they will die.

So the gardening maid didn't quite understand what was going on.

Tapping.

There were footsteps behind me.

The maid turned around and saw the young lady, and quickly said, "Good morning, young lady, I..."

Ling Hua raised her hand to interrupt the other person's speech.

"No need for further explanation. I just wanted to tell you that you only need to take care of the flowers here every now and then. I have other uses for them."

The maid didn't quite understand why this was necessary, but she nodded nonetheless.

The young lady must have her reasons for doing this!

Meanwhile, on the streets of Inazuma, an unidentified flying object followed a somewhat listless blonde girl.

This unique combination made it easy to identify the two people, and Kaede Manba was no exception. He stepped forward and greeted them warmly.

"Good morning, you two. Have you had breakfast yet?"

He was actually quite happy because with the end of the Eye Hunt order, no one would get hurt anymore, and the wanted notice on him was gone.

Finally, I can walk openly on the streets of my hometown and savor those nostalgic foods.

The traveler, with dark circles under his eyes, forced a smile.

"I have eaten. Thank you for your concern, Mr. Kaedehara."

Seeing the other person's thick dark circles, Kaedehara Manyo was startled.

"How did you..."

The traveler quickly waved her hand. Noticing the other person's surprise, she explained, "I'm a little unwell after getting ashore. It's nothing to worry about. Let's talk about the commission."

Kaedehara Manyo's expression was a little stiff, but then it turned into deep admiration.

He hadn't expected the other person to have such severe acclimatization problems in Inazuma; their dark circles were just too heavy. He couldn't help but sigh.

No wonder the other party can become a famous adventurer; they are still checking and doing commissions in this state.

However, he wasn't the kind of person who would drag someone along even if they knew they weren't feeling well. He immediately replied, "Why don't you go and rest for a while? We can discuss the commission tomorrow."

The traveler shook his head: "It's okay, I'm fine. Wait for me a moment."

As she spoke, she took out a small bottle from her skirt pocket, which had a butterfly wing pattern on it.

The traveler's uniquely developed stamina potion is very effective, but the raw materials are a bit difficult to obtain.

After finishing one bottle, I felt full of energy.

The invigorated traveler gave Kaedehara Manyo a thumbs-up: "Now you're getting into it, right?"

Kaedehara Manyo looked at the other person with some surprise, but quickly composed himself.

"That's really too much trouble for you. I'll pay for the medicine."

"How about I do it?"

A voice suddenly came from behind. The two people and their flying vehicle looked over and saw a man standing there, smiling.

The traveler was somewhat excited, but managed to conceal it well.

There wasn't much to say last night, but she had been adrift at sea for a long time and hadn't done anything during that time.

Is it finally coming?

Kaedehara Manyo was curious about who this person was, and he seemed to know the traveler quite well.

Xu Guang spread his hands and introduced himself: "My name is Xu Guang. I'm just an ordinary adventurer, definitely not comparable to a traveler. But if you don't mind, could you add me?"

Kaedehara Manyo glanced at the traveler, and seeing that the traveler did not refuse, he nodded.

"Of course not. On the contrary, I am honored to have received Mr. Xu Guang's help."

Paimon wanted to refuse, but given the current situation, she was afraid of getting two cherries for herself, so she stopped talking and decided to remain silent.

The group then left Inazuma Castle and headed to the outskirts.

On the way, Xu Guang saw two acquaintances, and his smile grew even wider.

He believed the other person had also seen him, so it seemed tonight would be quite fulfilling.

Not long ago, in Inazuma Castle, Kujo Sara, who was on patrol, suddenly saw a familiar figure and rubbed her eyes in disbelief.

"Wait... he actually appeared in reality?"

She had always thought that the other person could only exist in the dream world.

However, it seems to be good news. Judging from the other party's appearance, they did not tell anyone their whereabouts, so it seems that she can sneak away.

Chapter 303: The Attitude of Apologizing

Eating alone can be considered a fine tradition.

Kujo Sara knew very well that others would do the same if they knew, so there was no reason to hesitate. These kinds of things are always a case of "first come, first served."

He waved his hand, beckoned a subordinate over, gave him instructions, and then Kujo Sara changed into some lighter clothes before quietly following him.

Unbeknownst to her, a little blue-haired boy in the distance had seen everything.

Xin Hai was a little puzzled as to what made a general who was in charge of the Heavenly Ranks act in such a manner. Driven by curiosity, Xin Hai decisively followed.

Of course, if she knew that Kujo's target was Xu Guang, she would never have such a thought, even if you beat her to death.

……

"So, you were hoping to retrieve the God's Eyes of others?"

As they walked and talked, Kaedehara Manyo revealed his purpose.

The traveler nodded. This request wasn't unreasonable. After all, only when a person's desire was strong enough could they be granted the Eye of God. It was proof of power and a bargaining chip for exchanging one's ideals.

Taking away the Eye of God is tantamount to depriving someone of their future. She didn't quite understand Inazuma's decree. The Eye of God was, after all, a gift from the gods; how could it be so easily taken away?

Although this has ended, it only means that no new Eyes of God will be confiscated; those that have been embedded in the statues cannot be returned.

Unless General Thunder speaks for himself, and there is any hope under such a golden decree, those in charge of this decree will never agree.

Ultimately, it boils down to who should be the culprit.

General Thunder?

How could that be? She's a goddess, the absolute ruler of Inazuma, she's always right.

Then the problem arises: anyone else would be unable to bear such responsibility, and the angry people would tear him apart.

Therefore, the traveler was unaware of the nature of this problem.

Xu Guang didn't care. The Eye of God was just an external elemental organ, which he could buy wholesale. Getting it back would be even simpler. He could just go to Ying's place tonight and settle things there.

However, he didn't come here to complete a request; he just wanted to play around in the wild with the traveler.

It would be better if the mission was longer, so he could try out more creative ideas.

The group, each with their own thoughts, arrived at a small gravesite and watched as Kaede Manba paid his respects at his friend's grave.

Xu Guang wasn't idle either. He pulled the traveler to a clump of grass and lifted her skirt.

He had even strung the cherries together with a string, but now that he's pulled them out, he finds one is missing.

That makes sense, since the length of the yang passage is only so long, and any extra ones will naturally end up elsewhere. He knows the traveler's capabilities well; those cherries were measured in advance, so no matter how hard the traveler tries, one or two will always pop out.

He could also use this as a reason to launch an attack.

Pulling out a bunch of slightly dark red cherries, dripping with water, Xu Guang picked one up, squinting at its shimmering color in the sunlight.

"One is missing. Looks like someone's going to be punished. Let's guess who it is?"

The traveler asked with some anticipation, "Me?"

Xu Guang nodded, stood up, looked at the steaming food, then stretched out his finger and gently flicked it: "Of course, but is this your attitude of admitting your mistake?"

The traveler paused for a moment.

The attitude of admitting mistakes?

What does this mean?

However, she soon found out, because the other person pulled out a collar from somewhere, with a pendant featuring a small, dangling bone icon.

Xu Guang smiled: "If you're going to admit your mistake, you should at least wear this, right?"

To be honest, the traveler was relieved to see this, because it was just a collar, and everyone has worn one before.

But after she put it on, the other person pulled out a tail from somewhere and gestured for her to put it on as well.

Looking at the thing, the traveler hesitated for a moment, but still decided to plug it in.

After putting it on, Xu Guang nodded in satisfaction, "That's more like it!"

"Come on, lie down. Let's go for a walk around for a bit, and then do some fun things."

The traveler blushed and nodded, while Paimon covered his face, speechless.

Knowing she couldn't stop them, she could only hope that Xu Guang could feed the travelers a little to prevent them from developing a persistent fever in the hotel.

Damn it, she didn't sleep well last night. She watched the other person toss and turn in the blankets, but couldn't get to the point for a long time, and would occasionally make some strange noises.

Rather than doing that, it's better to give in and let the other person have some peace and quiet for a while.

Xu Guang led the traveler into the bushes, then pressed down the weeds and soaked the soil.
