Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal

Suddenly, there was a roar of thunder. Kaio looked at the so-called father in front of him with angry eyes.

However, he sneered nonchalantly at his own anger.

"Hey, who are you trying to scare, you little brat? I'm your father, how dare you hit me? Hurry up and find me something to eat, I'm starving."

He looked around as if it was a matter of course. He thought Kaio would care about the father-son relationship and give up, but he was wrong.

How can animals understand human emotions and anger?

"Huh? You kid, I'm talking to you, can't you hear me? Hurry up and get me something to eat! Wait, what are you doing? Stop it, don't!"

The silent boy ignored the man. He took out a sharp blade from behind and stabbed the man in the chest quickly.

"Wait, Kaio, I'm your father, you can't...ah!"

In an instant, the man's hands and feet were chopped off at wind-like speed, and the scarlet sharp blade kept stabbing at his blood-stained chest once, twice, until the man died in screaming. Finally, after 68 stabs, there was no intact surface of the man's body, and the boy stopped.

Yes, he did it, because the man who claimed to be his father took his mother's life-saving money, so Kaio took his life as agreed.

He stepped on the corpse and slowly stood up, then looked at the hat and cloak beside him.

That was the coming-of-age ceremony he prepared for himself when he was a child, as he had imagined becoming a knight in the future. Now, he used it to punish the injustices of the past.

He put on his hat and cloak, and on a rainy night he came to the gambling house his father often visited.

The room in the distance was brightly lit, filled with noise and joy, forming a sharp contrast with the grief-stricken and indifferent Kaio at the moment.

The young man stepped forward and pushed open the door of the gambling house.

At this time, the guard in front of the door dozed off out of boredom. However, when he turned around and saw Kaio standing at the door, he saw a cold light flash by, and everything in front of his eyes turned upside down, and then he lost consciousness.

"Something's happening!"

"Hey, who are you?"

"Wait, don't come over here! Ah!"

On rainy nights, the entire casino was filled with endless roars and screams, and no one was spared, whether the owner or the passers-by.

He was called the devil of rainy nights, who brought fear and anxiety to people in his chivalrous manner. Later, he left words on the wall with his blood - murderer, Kaio!

"On a rainy night, I took advantage of the situation and robbed the gambling house. Based on the IOUs my father had owed me, I secretly stuffed the money into conspicuous places in front of the windows or doors of the neighbors' houses." said Kuang Dao.

"Really? I've seen many people killing people for revenge, but you're the first one who dares to leave your name at the scene after killing someone, brother." Hong Tao teased.

Crazy Blade folded his arms and said, "Of course, those guys were killed with a single blow. If they weren't professional killers, then they could only be contractors who are good at using the wind element. And the only contractor in town..."

"It's just you, and what a coincidence, you are also a wind element." Hong Tao said.

"That's right, so I simply revealed my name. It's not in vain that I call myself a knight!" Kuang Dao stood up, hands on his hips, and said, "And you know what happened next. Because I was wanted, I could only wander the streets and commit petty thefts every day to make a living. Until that day, I met Lord Demon."

That morning, when he was still Kaio, he stole half a loaf of bread from a bakery. With the bread, he hid in an alley and began to devour it.

"Really? Why do I have to do this?"

At this moment, his heart was filled with indignation towards life, and after eating the rest of the bread, he sighed deeply again.

"Forget it. Now that I've embarked on this path, there's no point regretting it now. It's just..."

He looked at the bamboo hat pressed against the box beside him. Ever since the gambling den incident, his future had been like that, with no future ahead of him. But if he were to make the choice again, he would still do the same thing. After all, his family was destroyed by this unbearable mix of good and bad people.

He leaned against the wall and gradually fell asleep. At this moment, an old voice woke him up.

"Do you feel that your fate is unfair?"

Kaio suddenly opened his eyes, and in front of him was a man in a black robe. The man's face was tightly covered by the cloak, so he could not see the man's face at all.

"Who are you?"

"I am the Demon Lord, traveling the wrong way. Answer me, child, do you want to change this fate?"

"Change... fate?"

"That's right, join the Fallen Angel Troupe and rebel against this order with the Fallen Angel's contract. Your future will be rewritten by your own hands!"

"After that, the Demon Lord gave me the name Crazy Blade, and I officially joined the Fallen Angel Brigade." Crazy Blade said, and then let out a long sigh.

"Really? It seems we are quite similar." Hong Tao said, "I have also heard about your father's story. To be honest, when I heard that you killed your father with your own hands, I looked down on you. But now that I know the whole story, I feel more sympathy for you."

"It's the same for you." Kuang Dao folded his arms and said, "You know, I used to despise those who liked to rob and loot the most. They claimed to be righteous but actually did what bandits do. But when I learned about your past, I understood the pain behind it."

"Oh, so we are acquainted with each other through fighting?"

"You could say that, even though we haven't fought much." Kuang Dao smiled. "But after all that talk, have you figured out how to pass the trial?"

"Well...sorry, no." Hong Tao answered decisively.

"You! Oh, forget it, I'll have to figure it out myself." Kuang Dao said helplessly.

"You don't need to worry. In fact, Lord Demon has already told us the answer from the beginning through the trial." Hong Tao said.

"Ah?" Kuang Dao was stunned.

"Think carefully about what Lord Demon said before we came here." Hong Tao said with his hands folded.

"Rocks are easy to attack and easy to defend. When defended, they are as solid as a rock; when attacked, they are as violent as a torrent. The wind sometimes blows fast and sometimes slows. When slow, it embraces everything; when fast, it destroys everything."

The Demon Lord said this at that time.

"If this trial is tailor-made for us, then the answer lies within."

"That's right. Wait, what have we been talking about for so long? " Kuang Dao complained.

Hong Tao waved his hands and said, "It's all because of your impatience. If I hadn't changed the subject and changed the atmosphere, you would have rushed in more than 20 times."

"You! Forget it, I won't bother with you since we're colleagues." Kuang Dao folded his arms and turned his head and said, "But now that we know the method, we should be able to challenge the trial now, right?"
