Genshin Impact: The Beginning of the Wind

Unfortunately, Su Feng was much more wary than Wendy had imagined.

Of course, Su Feng didn't think this was a particularly impressive skill. The reason he was able to trick Wendy was simply because he took advantage of Wendy's carelessness.

Moreover, this kind of thing is just something for the two parties to joke around with at most.

"whispering sound!"

"Are you even willing to be a follower of the Wind God?!"

After being exposed, Wendy curled her lip and began to argue unreasonably—how could she let go of a suitable tool she had finally found?

"If you're serious about being a follower of the Wind God, I'd definitely take it!"

"But let's get this straight, don't expect me to work overtime to fix your problems! I'm a libertarian!"

"However, I certainly won't refuse any help that's necessary."

Su Feng certainly had no intention of refusing Wendy's divine power.

Just as Wendy said, since they are already in Teyvat, they should use some local specialties. If they always rely on external forces, it's easy for nails to fall from the sky.

The only problem now is that Wendy's schemes are practically jumping right into his face, and he can't ignore them even if he wants to.

"Don't worry, Mondstadt is a free city-state, no one will force you to do anything!"

Wendy's explanation was weak and unconvincing, but even under Su Feng's disdainful gaze, he still finished speaking without changing his expression.

"In short, just accept this Wind God's Familiar! It definitely won't be a loss for you."

Perhaps knowing that her explanation and promises were too outrageous, Wendy eventually had to use a semi-coercive approach to force Su Feng to make a choice.

"Fine, I'll just pretend I believe your nonsense!"

In the end, Su Feng shrugged and accepted the wisp of breeze from Wendy's hand. As the breeze, symbolizing the power of the Wind God's familiar, smoothly merged into Su Feng's body, his originally emerald green eyes flashed with light, but the light quickly disappeared again.

"It seems you've already mastered this power! You're definitely no ordinary person after all!"

Seeing this scene, Wendy, who had already prepared for Su Feng to be unable to control the sudden power and cause some trouble, couldn't help but admire him. However, in his heart, he silently raised his expectations for Su Feng.

The power of the Anemo Familiar that Venti gave may not be particularly strong, but it is by no means weak in Teyvat. If this power were given to a mortal, it would take the person quite a while to digest it and barely be able to control it.

However, Su Feng was completely controlled in the blink of an eye. This means that the power Su Feng originally possessed was at least no less than the power of the Wind God's Familiar that Wendy had brought out. In fact, judging from the cheering appearance of the Thousand Winds surrounding Su Feng now, the power contained in his body may be more powerful and of higher quality than Wendy's power in essence.

'She's a rather troublesome family member~'

'But this doesn't seem so bad?'

Wendy muttered a few words to herself.

Normally, it's better to avoid trouble, but considering that Teyvat might soon become lively, having an additional familiar with considerable strength is definitely not a bad thing for Mondstadt.

"Alright, now that I've given you the power of the Wind God's Familiar, there's nothing more to do with the bard Venti. I'm going to go explore Mondstadt properly now!"

As if she had thought of something happy, Wendy's face suddenly showed an extremely strange smile, and before Su Feng could react, she turned into a wisp of breeze and disappeared from the spot.

Unexpectedly, Wendy flashed away so quickly. Su Feng could only silently calm down the power that was about to turn into wind and leave, and then helplessly look at the big tree in front of him that was entwined with a gentle breeze.

"Although I already knew that Barbatos was usually unreliable, this guy's unreliability is just too much, isn't it?"

"How could you guys put up with this guy for so long?"

"Didn't you think about beating this guy up?"

"If needed, I wouldn't mind helping you vent your anger."

Standing in front of the big tree, Su Feng spoke these words like a devil tempting people to fall.

“Ss ...

As if he had heard Su Feng's voice, or even agreed with the criticism of Mondstadt's rule, the trees in the wind rustled, and a playful breeze blew through the leaves onto him.

Sensing the complaints and laughter, as well as the unwavering respect, contained within the wind, Su Feng also revealed a slight smile.

"Ha, that makes sense."

"After all, this is probably the only thing he owns, right?"

When Su Feng said this, there was a hint of sorrow in his voice, but that sorrow quickly dissipated into the ceaseless breeze and would never reach the ears of anyone else.

Su Feng himself then merged into the endless breeze and disappeared from the land. In the end, all that remained in the place where the wind rose were the enormous trees and the ceaseless flow of wind.

However, amidst this changing wind, waves symbolizing change have already begun to rise once again.

The god who controls the winds is ready to once again steer the raging storm.

But what will he have to give up this time?

God loves the world—is this freedom? Duty? Or—a constraint?

Chapter Five: A Threat from a Certain Lady

Su Feng returned to the gates of Mondstadt, but his identity was now completely different from before.

Mondstadt is indeed a free city-state. It's so free that even if you mispronounce the name of the wind god, you won't be hung up and burned as firewood because of your beliefs.

However, Mondstadt is also a country with a strong religious faith. Devout faith and freedom seem to go hand in hand, but in fact, Mondstadt has strangely mixed the two together.

Although Barbatos, the wind god, never led the people of Mondstadt, the faith in him never ceased in the country.

The existence of the Church of the West Wind and its relatively transcendent status further demonstrate that the Mondstadt people's faith in the wind god was not merely superficial.

Now, Su Feng has become a follower of the Wind God.

To be honest, if he just reveals his identity and his authenticity is verified, he could easily become a revered mascot in Mondstadt.

After all, he was a living divine being, far more symbolic than the lyre that the knights 'firmly guarded'!

Of course, it would be wishful thinking to think that you can lord it over Mondstadt just because you're a member of the Wind God's Familiar.

Even if Barbatos himself came, without resorting to force, he would probably get a severe beating if he tried to act arrogantly.

After all, freedom is also deeply ingrained in the marrow of the Mondstadt people.

However, Su Feng did not intend to reveal his identity as a member of the Wind God's family.

It wasn't just because he didn't care about the power and status that this identity brought; more importantly, he could foresee that if he revealed this identity, a whole host of troubles, led by the Fools and the Abyss Order, would inevitably come crashing down on him.

After all, the wind god Barbatos hadn't appeared for far too long. Now that they had finally captured one of the wind god's followers, these two forces, who had long wanted to cause trouble in Mondstadt, would absolutely not let him go.

Especially now that Mondstadt is extremely empty due to the expedition, he may very well become the next work machine to replace Jean, who died from overwork.

But if that's the case, what sins did Jean do in her past life to end up in such an unlucky place as Mondstadt?

"Anyway... let's go have a drink first!"

After broadening his thinking slightly, Su Feng decisively chose to return to the gift of the angels.

He had finally managed to get a drink, but Wendy snatched it from him. Now he had to get it back, otherwise he would have lost out big time.

However, no matter how much you want to do something, there will always be someone who comes to bother you—like right now.

"Hmph! I never thought that the mouse that I could never catch would find itself a little mouse. It's really disgusting."

"But only in this country, where the laxity is so disgusting, can rats find a place to live, right?"

Just as Su Feng landed in Mondstadt and was preparing to return to Angel's Gift, a cold voice filled with obvious disgust suddenly reached his ears. Upon hearing this voice, a hint of helplessness appeared on Su Feng's face.

"If we go by what that guy said, calling him a squirrel would be more appropriate, since he was once chased away by his own companions with squirrel-scare sounds... But that has nothing to do with me, right?"

"I'm just a pathetic wretch forced to cover someone else's shift, and I haven't done anything that anyone would dislike, have I?"

A cold aura, concealing a hint of heat, appeared in Su Feng's senses. Having been confronted, he could only helplessly turn around and spread his hands as he looked at the woman in the magnificent robe who was walking slowly towards him.

Rosalyn Cruzshika Loefat.

Or rather, she should now be called the eighth seat of the Fools' Executive Officers—the lady.

"Hmph! He's just like me, so quick-witted."

"What's wrong with me calling that guy a rat? Even now, he hasn't dared to show his face in front of me, and he's still nowhere to be found. What else is he but a rat?"

"Someone who looks like this can be called a god?"

The woman's voice grew colder and more arrogant. It seemed that Su Feng, as a member of the Wind God's family, appearing before her made her quite unhappy. Su Feng, who had suffered an undeserved misfortune, could only give a helpless bitter smile.

As expected, the Wind God's Families is a trap.

Now Su Feng somewhat understands why Dvalin and Vanessa acted that way towards Wendy. Their boss was just too unreliable. It's a pity that Su Feng, as a newly promoted member of the Wind God's Familiar, has already jumped into this pit, and now it will probably be difficult for him to climb out.

"There are unique agreements and tacit understandings among the rulers of the mortal world. In the end, we are just ordinary people working below. Your presence in Mondstadt already demonstrates this tacit understanding, but even so, this tacit understanding has its limits."

"Although I was just forced into this role, now that I have acquired this power, I will naturally take on the corresponding responsibilities."

"After all, freedom is meaningless without restrictions and responsibilities."

As Su Feng spoke, his emerald green eyes flickered slightly, and then the cold wind that had been surrounding the lady suddenly stopped. The lady, who had been full of arrogance, froze, and then a dangerous aura gradually emanated from her.

However, the cold wind that the lady originally used to freeze her opponent and exert pressure suddenly turned against her and bound her hands and feet.

For the lady, breaking free from the shackles of the icy winds was an easy task. The divine power bestowed by the Winter Queen might be a formidable force for the other Fools' Executors, but for the lady, it was merely a cage that bound her and kept her body in the mortal world.

The lady believed that if she broke free of the cage, she could turn half of Mondstadt into a sea of ​​fire before Barbatos could even react, but was it really worth it?

This is Mondstadt after all.

"Humph!"

"I will find a chance to catch that rat, and then I will make that rat pay the price it deserves!"

After uttering those words with a hint of resentment, the woman decisively left with her subordinates. Her only purpose in meeting Su Feng was to see if she could find Barbatos along the way. Since it seemed impossible to find her target through Su Feng, this newly appeared member of the Wind God's family, there was no need to waste any more time.

Anyway, Barbatos couldn't keep hiding from her like a mouse forever.

She had plenty of patience for Her Majesty's noble and sacred plan!

Chapter Six: The Qin Always Brings Surprises

"What a troublesome woman."

Although the woman turned and left, Su Feng watched her receding figure with a sullen face and muttered a complaint under his breath.

"Although I know that women are relatively more emotional, a woman who is controlled by inexplicable emotions is too terrifying. It makes me a little afraid of women."

"What bad luck."
