Dotore from Genshin Impact is my teacher

Chapter 129 The Moon and the Sun

(I'm guessing I'll fail the qualifying exam at the end of the month ( ?? ﹏ ?? ), I know absolutely nothing about biology and chemistry, and I have to retake them in my second year of high school (╥╯﹏╰╥)?).

(Science subjects are so hard, you wouldn't understand. Even if you listen carefully in class, you might not understand everything. Anyway, the teachers don't have high hopes for us; just passing is enough. In photochemistry alone, if you get a 40, the teachers will suspect you cheated. It's so hard for me! (っ╥╯﹏╰╥c))

(Please wish me luck in passing history and geography.)

This segment of the character can be described as young, energetic, and highly curious. During the day, he studies the ingenious mechanisms and artifacts his subordinates brought from the Red King's tomb, and at night he discusses the true meaning of life with Chen Xi—a process colloquially known as being "slammed." (Ahem, just imagine it yourself; it's inconvenient to write it out.)

The traveler is still caught in a cycle of dreams.

……

Kong and Paimon arrived at the market area to meet Dina Zede, and they went to browse the stalls together.

Sora tried "alchemy divination," though it didn't seem very reliable. "Alchemy divination," as the name suggests, involves divination using the products of failed alchemy.

The stall owner examined the failed product of alchemy and said hesitantly, "Uh... it's... the moon."

Paimon curiously leaned closer: "Let me see too."

Paimon, being an outsider, naturally couldn't understand it and muttered, "Why does it look like a pancake that's been bitten?"

The stall owner ignored Paimon's words, unable to recall what the "moon" represented for a moment, and gestured for everyone to wait a moment before turning around to look through the book.

Paimon quipped, "Is he secretly flipping through a book?"

The stall owner, having figured out what the "moon" represented, turned around and said, "Oh, I remember now, it means 'illusion' and 'lies.'"

Dina Zede rested her hand on her chin in thought: "'Falsehood' and 'lies'...it doesn't sound like a good outcome..."

The stall owner nodded: "Yes. But the book says that as long as you trust your intuition and overcome your fears, the sun will surely rise."

Paimon: "He's no longer hiding the fact that he's flipping through books."

Dina Zede sighed, "...As expected, fate only ever shows you the surface; you still have to rely on yourself to reach the 'ending'."

She smiled at the stall owner again and said, "Thank you so much. I'll take it into consideration."

The stall owner was a little embarrassed and waved his hand, saying, "Ah... not at all, I'm just learning as I go... hahaha..."

Paimon: "This sounds interesting. Let's move on to the next stop."

……

The three then headed to their next stop, with Dina Zede explaining the Flower Goddess Festival to the two as they walked.

The three arrived at the busiest stall, where a large group of children were cheering, "Farris! Farris!"

The stall owner, wearing a strange hat, clapped his hands and said, "Soldiers, only by forming ranks properly will you be rewarded with Yalda candies."

The children lined up in a very conscientious manner.

Paimon muttered to himself, "What a weird hat, what a weird person."

The children's attention was drawn to her, and their eyes lit up when they saw Dina Zede. One of the little boys exclaimed with delight, "Hey, it's Sister Dina Zede!"

The other children were also very happy, and it was clear that they really liked Dina Zede.

The stall owner laughed, "Hahaha... Miss Dina Zede, you are even more attractive to children than Yalda candies! In just a few days of preparing for the Flower Goddess's birthday festival, the children have all fallen in love with you."

Dina Zede was a little embarrassed: "Ahem... Ah, Holy Flower Knight, it's an honor that you know my name!"

The stall owner was taken aback at first, then reacted and replied, "Ah... cough cough, yo ho, of course, in the name of the Flower Knight Faris, I commend you for your contribution to the birthday of the great Flower Goddess."

Then he said to the children, "Alright, little soldiers, take your Yalda candy rewards, remain loyal to the Little Lucky Grass King, and disperse!"

The children answered in unison, "Yes, Sir Faris!" and then took their candy and went off to play elsewhere.

Paimon asked, looking completely bewildered, "What kind of show is this?"

Dina Zede smiled and patiently explained, "Hehe, the Flower Knight Faris is also a symbol of the Flower Goddess's Birthday Festival. It's just that the one who used to play the Flower Knight was sitting on the float, and he was very popular with children."

The stall owner, dressed as the Flower Knight Faris, is named Pigal.

He laughed and said, "Thanks to Ms. Dina Zede's sponsorship, the children have such interesting childhood memories."

Dina Zede responded with a smile, "You've worked hard too, Vigal."

Pigar quickly waved his hand: "No, no. Oh, by the way, would you like some Yalda candies? They're a specialty of the festival. I happen to have some candy boxes prepared here. See which one you'd like to choose."

Paimon looked at the boxes on the stall, hesitating, "Which one should I take...don't they all look the same?"

Pigar smiled and explained to her, "Haha, that's the fun. Each box contains a random flavor, and what you get is all down to luck. The candies come in melon, spice, and sunset fruit flavors..."

Paimon looked at the box expectantly: "Sounds good."

Pigar then went on to describe the other flavors: "...and then there's lizard tail flavor and herpes bug flavor."

Paimon immediately flew backward in disgust: "Hey! What's with these two smells?"

Dina Zede introduced it as if it were an ordinary thing: "The Yarda candy from the Ghost Beetle is slightly spicier than the Lizard Tail flavor."

Paimon looked on incredulously: "Dina Zede, you... you actually ate that! Hmm..."

Curiosity drove her, but she was also afraid of choosing those two horrible flavors of candy. With a conflicted expression, she said to Kong, "You choose! I want the sunset fruit flavor!"

Kong: "It's not like I can guarantee you'll win just because I help you. Don't blame me if you choose the wrong one."

Paimon patted his chest and said, "It's okay, it's okay, I believe you!"

Dina Zede: "I also think travelers should be very good at this, haha."

Pigar arranged the candy boxes: "Okay! These five candy boxes are numbered 1 to 5 from left to right. Which number do you want to choose?"

After glancing at it once, Kong said, "Then let's go with number 3."

Pigar opened candy box number three and announced, "Oh dear, unfortunately, it's melon flavored."

Paimon (disappointed): "Eh... I thought you must be incredibly lucky to have survived so many battles, but it seems you're not all that lucky after all."

Kong looked at her: "..." I said from the beginning that I couldn't guarantee that I would get the Sunset Fruit flavor.

Seeing this, Pikal tried to smooth things over: "The sunset fruit flavored candy is actually in box number four. How about this, since it's more important for everyone to be happy during the festival, you can take both boxes of candy!"

Paimon's eyes lit up: "Really? Thank you, Sugar Knight."

—Not part of the main text—

(Just bear with it, my mind is a mess. I don't want to retake the exam in my second year of high school, but it's inevitable.)

(Everything is setting the stage for later events. Otherwise, if we don't even know where the original plot is, wouldn't it be even more confusing?)
