Genshin Impact: Learning makes me stronger

Chapter 161 5 Years of Compensation

"Although I still don't know why we met five hundred years ago, since Yae Palace Master remembers me, this should be an established fact." Su Xun smiled and responded politely.

"I wonder if Yae-miyaji could tell me in detail what happened to me hundreds of years ago?"

"Of course, but..." Yae Shinto smiled sweetly.

"But what?"

"But you have to call me Son of God. Calling me Yaezunari is too strange. You called me little fox back then." Yaezunari Son of God said resentfully.

Su Xun was slightly startled, then he smiled gently and nodded in agreement: "In that case, I will respectfully obey your command, Son of God."

Yae Shinto smiled with satisfaction, then invited Su Xun to sit down, and motioned Ying and Paimeng to sit down as well, and then began to tell the story.

“Five hundred years ago, when I was still a child, I was practicing in the mountains and forests when I was accidentally discovered by a vicious monster.

The monster was so powerful that I was no match for it. Just when I thought I was doomed, you appeared. Not only did you drive away the monster, you also carefully treated my injuries. "

Su Xun listened carefully. Even though he had no memory of that time, Yae Shinko's description made him feel an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

He asked, "And then, what happened next?"

Yae Shinko recalled: "Afterwards, because I was a homeless fox and you saved me, in order to repay this kindness, I decided to follow you.

You did not refuse, but chose to accept me. Then, we came to Inazuma Castle together. It was the first time I witnessed the prosperity and beauty of the human world..."

Listening to the Eightfold Son of God's slow narration, Su Xun also had a general understanding of some of the things he had experienced after traveling back in time.

Five hundred years ago, the first person Su Xun met was Yae Shinko who had not yet transformed into a human form. After taking in the little fox, they came to Inazuma City, where they met the sisters Raiden Zhen and Raiden Diandian.

Then Su Xun established a friendship with Lei Shen and his followers and friends, and assisted Raiden Zhen in managing Inazuma for a while, but later, for some unknown reason, Su Xun suddenly disappeared.

Soon after, the disaster of Kanreya swept across the entire Teyvat, and Inazuma's god of thunder, Raiden, died in the battle to destroy Kanreya.

Her subordinates and friends either died in the battle or fell into madness. Except for the weak Yae God Child, no one was spared.

After Raiden Shin died in battle, although Lei Yingdi was heartbroken, she still suppressed her grief for the sake of Inazuma's stability, took over Raiden Shin's will, became the new Throne of Thunder of Inazuma, and led the people of Inazuma out of the darkest period.

Hearing this, everyone fell silent. The misfortunes and sufferings five hundred years ago made everyone present feel heavy-hearted. They could not imagine how much hardship the people of that era had gone through.

Su Xun's mood was even more complicated. He didn't expect that even if he went back five hundred years, he would not be able to change the occurrence of those tragedies. Then what was the point of going back to the past?

After a moment of silence, Su Xun's eyes flashed with determination. There must be deeper reasons behind this. It couldn't be as simple as it seemed on the surface. He would never allow any tragedy to happen.

But the specific situation is still unclear now, and it can only be revealed slowly with time.

Su Xun took a deep breath, turned his gaze to the Eightfold Son of God, and asked, "Son of God, do you know why I suddenly disappeared?"

Yae Shenzi shook her head slightly, with a hint of complaint in her eyes: "How should I know? You left suddenly that day without leaving any message. We were all waiting for you to come back, but you never showed up again."

Looking at the look in Yae Shinto's eyes, Su Xun felt a little embarrassed.

No matter what ideas he had for the future, it was still a bit hard to understand why he left without saying goodbye.

Su Xun frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Son of God, although I know nothing about this now, I promise you that I will try my best to find the answer and give you an explanation."

Yae Shinko nodded slightly, and the resentment in her eyes eased a little, but she still snorted, "Hmph, there's no need to explain to me, you should think about how to face Ying next."

Hearing this, Su Xun was stunned.

"Um...you mean..."

Yae Shinko stared at Su Xun with a half-smile, "Why, do you think I'm the only one waiting for you to come back? The same goes for Ying."

A complex emotion suddenly surged in Su Xun's heart. Facing the God of Thunder?

But he hasn't met Lei Dianying yet. How should he deal with this "friend" he has never met? Will he be stabbed by her as soon as they meet?

"Son of God, I..." Su Xun hesitated to speak.

"Okay, don't worry about it now." Yae Shinko interrupted him, "I'll notify Ying when you're ready."

Su Xun nodded repeatedly in gratitude.

After listening to their conversation silently, Ying also understood the relationship between Su Xun and Inazuma. Although she felt that these stories were too fantastic, she did not dwell on it too much. Instead, she put her arm around Su Xun's shoulders to show her support.

"Su Xun, no matter what you need to face, I will be with you."

"Yeah." Su Xun responded with a smile.

Looking at the intimacy between Su Xun and Ying, Yae Shenzi narrowed his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a pause, she crossed her arms and said proudly, "Su Xun, now that you're back, you have to compensate me well!"

Su Xun was slightly stunned, "Compensation?"

"Yes," Yae Shinko blinked, "When you left suddenly, I was very sad. I couldn't sleep every night, so you have to make up for my broken heart. If you compensate me every day, five hundred years have passed. In other words, you have to compensate me for five hundred years!"

Five hundred years of compensation...

Su Xun suddenly felt a little powerless. He asked helplessly, "Then how do you want me to make up for it?"

Yae Shinko said with a smile on her face: "I don't ask for much compensation, I just need you to make me a portion of fried tofu every day."

After hearing this, Su Xun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He smiled and said, "Son of God, your request is so simple. It's just a plate of fried tofu. I can make it for you every day!"

Hearing this, Yae Shinto nodded with satisfaction, a hint of a triumphant smile in his eyes.

She clapped her hands gently, as if she had already imagined the wonderful scene of tasting the fried tofu made by Su Xun every day in the future.

"It's settled then, you are not allowed to regret it, Su Xun."
