Dotore from Genshin Impact is my teacher

"So the star began to hesitate. Rather than help such a sun, she should return to the night and ignite a patch of starry sky. But in the end, she was too greedy for the light of day and chose to hide her shame in her heart... So the star closed her eyes."

The stars represent Setare, and the sun represents the great sage Hazard.

Setare was initially admitted to the Academy because of her academic talent. After doing some bad things with the Great Sage, she hesitated about whether to return to the desert.

However, the environment of the desert and Sumeru City is too different. She is attracted by the academic atmosphere of the Sumeru City Academy, so she chooses to "close" her eyes and help the wicked.

Just like the desert people Paimon saw, most of them became mercenaries, very few became scholars, let alone someone as outstanding as Setare who was admitted to the Faculty.

To become a scholar, one must have a thirst for knowledge. In the desert, her thirst for knowledge clashed with that of the desert dwellers who craved power. Now, in Sumeru City, she is both a desert dweller and an outsider to the scholars there.

Only in the city of Sumeru could she find people to discuss things with and share her ideas. If she returned to the desert, very few people would be able to discuss things with her.

[Think about it carefully, how realistic this is! Mihoyo really went to great lengths to reflect reality. Children from remote areas (deserts) are attending schools (the Order Academy) in big cities (Sumeru City)...]

Paimon: "It sounds like Setare is just enamored with the academic environment here... but isn't she actually against the Church's approach? And doesn't she feel guilty towards her home desert...? She's clearly just running away from the problem."

Nasita nodded: "Indeed, many people, when faced with complex issues of stance, choose to turn a deaf ear and drift along until the problem becomes irreparable. Although he felt guilty, unknowingly, she had become an 'accomplice' of the sages and could not escape blame."

Kong agreed with the choice: "Then she is indeed a very good choice."

The plan can be implemented when Setare arrives in the city of Void to make purchases tomorrow afternoon.

Nasida led them to the stalls where Setare would be shopping to familiarize them with the way the stall owners spoke and behaved. When Setare came to shop the next afternoon, Nasida would take the opportunity to possess the stall owners and shake Setare's resolve.

They first came to a fortune-telling stall run by a little girl named Nabiya.

She had her back to them, but sensing someone's presence, she spoke in a mysterious tone: "Lost sheep, are you confused about your fate? The wisdom of the gods often reaches my ears. If you are blessed by the gods today, perhaps I can guide you out of your confusion."

Hearing this, Paimon looked at Nasita and asked, "Oh? Really? Do you often whisper to her?"

Nabiya, with her back to the three, assumed Paimon was talking to her and couldn't help but feel a little smug.

Narcida gestured to Paimon not to reveal herself in front of others, and spoke to Nabia in Catherine's voice: "My friend is a little confused about the future, could you do a divination for him?"

Upon hearing that they had come for divination, Nabiya turned around to face them directly: "Hmph, fine, then..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted while casting the spell, and he heard the two cats, one black and one white, meow in unison!

Nabiya was somewhat surprised: "Oh dear, it seems Harut and Marut don't like you very much. Did you do something to offend the gods?"

Sora, being "mute," did not answer, but Paimon, the traveler's god-mouth and external speaking organ, routinely spoke for the traveler: "Does talking badly about the Anemo Archon, freeloading off the Geo Archon, and fighting with the Thunder God count?"

Nabiya was taken aback, clearly not expecting the other party to be so...disrespectful to the gods, and asked in a puzzled voice, "Hmm?"

Nasita immediately changed the subject: "It's nothing, nothing, traveler, why don't you choose a divination topic first?"

After thinking for a moment, Kong said, "Then let's have my love life predicted."

Nabiya raised an eyebrow, put her hands on her hips, and said, "Love luck, huh? No problem."

Then she closed her eyes, seemingly sensing something, and said in a strange way, "Hmph hmph hmph hmph hmph... I heard it, I heard it. The person destined for you will appear... in... um?"

She suddenly opened her eyes, somewhat unsure of her divination results, even stammering, "So many! How can there be so many people..."

Chen Xi said it was normal; travelers are popular, it's perfectly normal. After all, he's a positive character, and the protagonist at that, it's perfectly normal, perfectly normal…

The entire Teyvat is the Traveler's harem, so what's wrong with that?

He kept reassuring himself that perhaps only the [Doctor] and his fragments would like him.

Even though they were just using him, it felt really good to be liked... He was never liked there before.

Because of his rigidity and inflexibility, he offended many people, and no one liked him...

He was both insecure and arrogant, humble yet haughty... It turns out that making peace with oneself is really difficult. [The Doctor] is right, here he is the only one who is genuinely good to him... and only he cares about him because of the experiment.

At least at that moment, he liked [The Doctor], thought [The Doctor] wasn't too bad, and believed that [The Doctor] would protect him from the other fragments.

……

……

Kong's eyes unconsciously drifted outwards: "..." Why do I feel a little guilty?

Paimon: "..." Why does the traveler seem a little guilty?

However, Nabiya didn't believe that the traveler's love life could be connected to so many people, thinking that he was at most just an ordinary person. Somewhat angrily, she said to the two cats beside her, "Harut and Marut, did you disturb the divination? I've never seen such an outrageous result."

The two cats meowed in unison, as if in response to her question.

Paimon glanced at the guilty-looking Kong and said to Nabiya, "Hmm, have you ever considered the possibility that the divination is accurate?"

Nabiya: "Okay, okay, I admit I'm not feeling well today, so I'll make an exception and not charge you."

Nasita: "I see. Then there's nothing we can do."

Nabiya: "Next time, bring some cat food. Harut and Marut will be happy, and maybe it will help you change your luck."

Afterwards, the three of them went to the stall owner, A Jin, and the hotel hostess, Qi Shan, to learn more.
