Dotore from Genshin Impact is my teacher

Chapter 6 Sea Lantern Chapter Happy, Happy New Year

Seeing Chen Xi draw his knife, the debtor went into stealth mode to observe his moves.

Knowing that his opponent had gone invisible, Chen Xi adopted a defensive stance, ready to strike at any moment.

Because he inherited Xiao's talent, Chen Xi could see the figure of the fire debtor moving rapidly.

The moment the debtor slowed down, Chen Xi seized the opportunity and, mimicking the way warriors in TV dramas slash at people, gripped the hilt of his sword with both hands and slashed at the debtor. The debtor, wielding two blades, blocked the attack, and the clash of weapons made Chen Xi's hands go numb.

"Not bad, let's try this move." With that, the Fire Debtor used the momentum to create distance and enchanted his twin blades, adding fire element, then accelerated into the sky. A falling attack left Chen Xi with a mouthful of dust. Taking advantage of Chen Xi's unpreparedness, the Fire Debtor launched a sneak attack from behind. Chen Xi reacted quickly and dodged, then threw the blade at the Fire Debtor like a textbook.

The debtor was just a hair's breadth away from being chopped off; luckily, sometimes the throws are accurate.

Shangguan Yan was overjoyed: "Excellent! As expected of the captain I chose! Hahahaha!"

Chen Xi: "Keep it low-key, it all depends on luck. Like the knife I just threw, sometimes it hit the mark and sometimes it didn't."

Fire debtor: "If you don't allow it, then wouldn't I be... oh my god, that's too dangerous."

Chen Xi: "Alright, Shangguan, you're from Liyue too, do you know what day it is today?"

Shangguan Yan asked in confusion, "What day is it?"

Chen Xi: "Lantern Festival!"

"Do you remember? In Liyue Harbor, thousands of lights shone, people lit lanterns, and wrote their best wishes on them..."

Shangguan Yan sighed, "Alas, I can't remember clearly, and I don't know if my parents can still recognize me. After all, we've been separated for more than ten years. I lost contact with my family when I was about seven years old and was adopted by [Hotheart House]. When I was sixteen, I was selected by [Captain] to join the army. I survived many battles. It's been three years since you joined the Third Team."

"Three years, how arduous."

Do you want to see Liyue Harbor?

"Of course I want to, but I am in a foreign land, serving the Queen, and cannot return home."

"I have a plan! Just look at the tent!" Chen Xi asked the system to project the scene of Liyue Harbor at this moment.

Liyuegang

Thousands of lanterns soared into the night sky over the sea, and colorful fireworks exploded in the air, forming beautiful patterns. People stopped their busy pace to admire this spectacle, and rows of lanterns hung along the streets...

At the dining table, the family raised their glasses to drink fine wine together.

Overwhelmed by the scene, Shangguan Yan wiped away tears from the corners of her eyes: "I miss them..."

Chen Xi comforted him, saying, "I'll take you home when I become a high-ranking official."

Shangguan Yan: "Alright, I'll wait for that day."

The debtor interjected, "It almost made me cry."

Chen Xi took out several buckets of instant noodles he had snatched from his system backpack: "It's lunchtime. These are the meals I brought. Just make do with them."

Shangguan Yan smelled it and said, "It smells so good! Come on, give each of you brothers a bucket."

Fire debtor: "From now on, you're my big brother!"

The others nodded in agreement, then wolfed down their noodles.

After finishing their noodles, everyone went back to their respective tents to sleep.

System: Where's my noodles? I just made them! Give them back!

Chen Xi: Mora will give you some.

System: Alright! From now on, please feel free to make any requests you may have, Host!

Chen Xi: Hmm.

The lanterns of the sea never fade, the heroic spirits live on forever; our forefathers shed their blood for this peaceful and prosperous world. On this long journey, there may be sorrowful memories, or moments of peace and happiness. When you feel weary, please turn back to rest and admire the moon's radiant glow. Wishing all travelers a Happy New Year!
