～～( *ˊ?ˋ)????～～

Goodwin took one last look at the spot where the crystal was buried, then turned and left. His figure gradually moved away in the night, finally disappearing into the darkness. Only silence remained, as if nothing had happened.

However, Goodwin did not go too far. He came to the stone where he had always stayed in the Wind Rising Land. This was the place he had always guarded. He sat silently beside the stone, quietly looking at the Mondstadt in the distance, and fell into deep thought.

"Gloria..." Goodwin murmured softly, his voice filled with endless longing and sorrow. As a soul, his eyes were slightly moistened and tears quietly slid down.

That’s right, it’s the soul. Goodwin is actually just a remnant soul now. This can be seen from the white light shining from the robe just now.

However, his true identity is revealed only when he uses his power. In daily life, because he is blessed by the power of the wind element, people are unable to detect his abnormality at all.

At this time, Su Yuan, who was far away in Amber's home in Mond City, was lying on Amber's bed and paying attention to all this with his spiritual sense, and he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Since becoming an immortal, Su Yuan's memory has become extraordinarily good. Originally, after becoming a level 8 newbie, all his puzzle-solving skills had been returned to the World Tree, but since becoming an immortal, these memories have returned to his mind again, and at the same time, they have also brought with them various "knives" in the game and the joys and sorrows of Su Yuan's previous life.

Su Yuan also had some understanding of Goodwin's story.

According to Goodwin himself, he was a knight among the tens of millions of knights in the Mondstadt Knights of Favonius who accompanied the Grand Master on the expedition, but he left the team due to an accident.

Later: "Before Captain Falgar's expedition left Mondstadt... I fell behind because I lost Glori's letter."

"As you can see, both the keepsake and the expedition have left me... I'm unwilling to return to Glory like this."

"Well, laugh if you want to, it will make me feel better." These are Goodwin's original words, full of sadness and self-mockery.

But now Su Yuan was also a little stunned when he saw this figure. He had read many stories about him in Blue Star before. Some people said that he was a deserter. Because he was afraid of being disappointed by his lover, he had been hiding in Fengqidi and dared not go back.

Some people also say that he had already died while following the commander in battle, and there are many different stories on the Internet.

But in Su Yuan's deduction, he actually knew everything about the matter. Goodwin had actually died during the expedition led by Captain Falga.

While exploring a relic, they encountered some mysterious and dangerous forces - the remains of demons. The power of the demon resentment contained in these remains was beyond their expectations and capabilities. In the fierce confrontation with these forces, Goodwin unfortunately died.

"Captain, I may not be able to follow you on the expedition with the Grand Commander... Sorry... Glory, I don't think I can accept your invitation..."

Before he died, Goodwin was still holding tightly the token that Gloria had given him when they parted, which was a pocket watch containing a photo of the two of them.

Goodwin looked at his lover in the photo, his heart filled with reluctance and attachment, but he eventually closed his eyes and left this world.

But after Goodwin's death, his teammates found themselves in danger again before they had time to mourn.

A powerful demonic resentment was approaching them, and this resentment was filled with anger and hatred, as if it wanted to destroy them completely.

At that critical moment, Grand Commander Falga finally arrived at the scene. Seeing the plight of his team members, he released his power without hesitation and used his absolute advantage to wipe out the remains and resentment of the demon god between heaven and earth.

After confirming that the remaining forces had been eliminated, Farga began to check the casualties of each member of the team, and he asked about the condition of each person with concern.

According to the military doctor in the team, Goodwin was seriously harmed by the demon and was beyond help. Upon hearing the news, Falga's face became solemn. He personally tried to eliminate the remaining resentment of the demon in his body, but it was of no avail.

Finally, the captain of Goodwin's team personally carried him out of the ruins and buried him on the highest hill.

Because the wind is strong at high altitudes, there is a saying in Mond that after a Mond resident dies, the wind will carry his soul back to his hometown.

After Goodwin's death, because his obsession was too strong, his soul remained in this world and did not leave.

However, Goodwin's soul did not leave the ruins, but was bound to the ruins by a powerful force.

As time passed, Goodwin's soul became entangled with the remnant of the demon.

After a long and fierce struggle, Goodwin finally won, but this victory came at a heavy price. After countless battles and conflicts, only a remnant of Goodwin remained.

Although Goodwin is now just a faint remnant soul, due to various coincidences, he is able to stay in the human world for a long time.

As a remnant soul, Goodwin knows that his time is limited, and his only wish is to see his lover again for the last time.

As if a mysterious force understood his deepest desires, the wind guided him along the way until he arrived in Mond.

Goodwin traveled all the way and went through untold hardships before finally arriving at the Wind Rises Land. However, when he arrived at his destination, his broken soul could no longer endure such a long journey.

Goodwin's broken soul finally fell. Although he was only one step away from his beloved Yi Ren, fate seemed to play a cruel joke on him.

But fortunately, Goodwin later signed an agreement with the wind god Barbatos. According to the agreement, he would only help when encountering powerful monsters like BOSS, Hurricane Core or Rockhelm Hill King, or facing a massive wave of monsters, to ensure that the monsters in Fengqidi are under control.

The range of movement is limited to the area where the wind rises, and you must never go too far away from the statue.

As for why the range was not determined under other statues, the reason was that Goodwin was already a broken soul. If he was moved easily, something unexpected might happen.

Even if he entered the range of the statue in Mondstadt, he would not be able to recognize his lover, after all, they had already been separated by life and death.

Now both parties can send letters to each other at least...

～～～??????～～～

Finally, I wish Falushan a happy birthday. Oh no, happy birthday to Tianmei! ~Senior!

(Note: Tianmei is a pun on senior)

Finally, the author complains that the template the author gave to Goodwin seems a bit like the protagonist of some fantasy world.
