Original God: Using a vest knife to make players and game characters cry

"Don't worry, I will definitely do it!"

Paimon stared at Yu Huan, his little eyes welling up with tears again.

"Hey, Jora, Jora, can you hear me?"

The jade ring flashed again.

Paimon exclaimed excitedly:

"Nora responded to me! She really is inside! Waaah, Traveler, I need to go find Wendy right now!"

……

The world of players.

Chen Xiyao was just climbing a snow mountain, and because of her lack of experience, she almost froze to death several times.

The viewers in the live stream were also having a headache, and they all stepped in to give her directions on the correct route.

Whether it was due to a poor sense of direction or the thick fog of the snow-covered mountains, she somehow ended up on an extremely bizarre path that no normal person would ever take.

"It's so cold here, everyone! I feel like I'm losing health much faster than elsewhere!"

"Let me see where I can get down. This way seems... Oh crap! I've fallen!"

I don't know why, but I fell into a crevice while walking. After one character died from the fall, the new character Diluc started losing health rapidly.

In her panic, Chen Xiyao suddenly noticed a pile of firewood and immediately used Diluc's skill to set it on fire.

She finally relaxed after seeing that her character was no longer losing health.

[My God, the streamer's skills are absolutely mind-blowing!]

I don't understand why I would stray from a perfectly straight path!

[Confirmed: The streamer has absolutely no sense of direction, not just in the game, but probably in the real world too.]

"Xiao Guo, look! There's a wooden sign behind you that's shining. Go take a look."

[This weird place actually has an Easter egg? The streamer was probably the first to see it, since no one else would do something like that!]

Chen Xiyao was indignant when she saw people saying she had no sense of direction. What does it mean to just walk crookedly?

There was clearly a treasure chest there, wasn't there? It's not unusual for her to go to open the treasure chest and then go to the wrong place, is it?

"Wooden sign?"

Chen Xiyao guided her character to the wooden sign, and the screen showed that she could interact with it, so she immediately clicked on it.

The wooden board reads:

The great heroes of Mondstadt, Jora and Noelle, were here!

The explanation also includes: (The charcoal writing is quite faded, indicating it was written a long time ago.)

The back of the wooden sign also contains:

Diluc of Mondstadt, I was here...

(The charcoal handwriting is still quite clear, so it must have been written in the last couple of days.)

Chen Xiyao fell silent.

The previously lively barrage of comments also stopped, and the viewers were speechless.

[Holy crap, I just walked out of there! miHy, you're inhuman!!!]

Yes, a great hero, Nora truly is a great hero of Mondstadt, sob sob...

We players all feel the same way; we can't imagine how heartbroken Grandpa must have been when he saw that scene, or what he was feeling when he added that last line.

"Hey, you go ahead and broadcast, I'm going to go have a smoke..."

[This wooden plaque must have been erected by Nora and Noelle when they went into the snowy mountains to rescue people, as Amber mentioned. They were heroes to those they rescued back then, and now they are heroes to all of Mondstadt!]

Chen Xiyao's mood also dropped.

Damn mihy!

Looking at the immature handwriting on the wooden sign, and the painting that even her three-year-old sister couldn't match, she felt her eyes well up with tears again.

"Sigh, I'm really impressed. I'm still using my maternal grandfather's name. This is really fitting for the occasion."

Exiting the screen on the wooden sign, a new quest suddenly appears on the screen, and it's a golden quest.

Chen Xiyao, who had already started exploring the world after completing her mission, immediately perked up.

There is no Yueyue Ma in China yet, and the map is huge and incredibly realistic, making it very difficult to explore the whole thing. So when this mission appeared, the live stream chat immediately went wild.

What?! There's a hidden quest here?!

[I admit I spoke a little loudly just now. The host's decision to take this path was absolutely wise!]

The host has left!

【I forgot to turn off the gas in Chen Ge Ke; I'm off!】

Chapter 60 The Last Day

Following the mission prompts, Chen Xiyao was teleported to Guili Plain.

Unexpectedly, Paimon spotted Diluc traveling on the road as soon as he arrived.

"It's Grandpa!"

This was the first time Chen Xiyao had seen her grandfather dressed in crimson robes in the game's storyline. He was so handsome, and the overwhelming sense of mission he exuded really touched her.

The name of the task also appeared on the screen:

Respect to the last day.

Chen Xiyao, who had already been stabbed, was triggering a frantic alarm on her radar. That name, that name—

No way, no way, Nora has already left, why are you still doing this?

Could it be that this last day belongs to Diluc?

He searched for that bastard to avenge his sister, but he was not strong enough and was severely injured by the other party, leaving him with only one day to live.

No! ! !

In the game, the first thing the Traveler and Paimon say to Diluc is that he asks for their help, and what happens next is quite unexpected.

Nora's soul was actually taken away by that bastard?!

Fortunately, Diluc managed to snatch it back in the end.

[That damn bastard! He took someone's soul after they died! Ugh, I can't take it anymore! miHy, make this guy's health bar appear! I'm going to beat him up a thousand times over!]

[Waaaaah, my brother-in-law is so amazing! Thanks to him, my baby's soul can finally rest in peace...]

[Speaking of which, didn't Wendy know her soul was taken away? Why don't we know anything about it?]

Leave this important task to me. We will definitely protect Nora's last soul!

Sigh, now I suddenly understand why this mission is called "The Last Day."

……

Teyvat.

Liyue, return to Liyuan.

Just as Ying and Paimon arrived at the teleportation anchor and were about to set off, Wendy appeared beside them.

"Give me Nora's soul."

Wendy extended her hand with a serious expression.

When Paimon saw Wendy, he stopped hawking his wares.

"Wendy, so you're here! That's great! Please help me check on Nora's condition."

Ying handed the jade ring to Wendy carefully, as if afraid it would fall to the ground and break.

Diluc stepped forward: "Please, Lord Wendy!"

"Ah."

Wendy immediately poured divine power into the jade ring as soon as she received it.

Gradually, the color on the purplish-black jade ring faded and began to turn bright yellow.

Diluc, Luminous, and Paimon watched Venti's actions intently, barely daring to breathe too loudly.

Only after seeing Wendy stop did Diluc anxiously ask:

"how?"

Ying, who had been on edge the whole time, asked, "How is Ruola doing?"

Wendy: "I have erased the abyssal power above. I did sense Nora's soul inside, but... it is very weak. Its soul strength is only one-tenth of a normal soul strength."

"Ah, why is it like this?!" Paimon exclaimed in disbelief.

Wendy: "For the soul, the power of the abyss is a curse; it slowly erodes the soul until it is completely devoured, and this process will be extremely painful..."

Wendy's tone became noticeably unfriendly at this point, but he quickly returned to normal.

"If it had been any later, or even just one more day, Nora's soul would have ceased to exist, vanished completely."

Diluc clenched his fists so tightly that his hands trembled slightly from the force of his grip when he heard that the consumption of souls would be extremely painful.

Paimon lowered his little head:

"Wendy, is there anything else you can do to save Nora? She's so pitiful!"

Wendy gently shook her head:

“The dead cannot be brought back; this is the law of Teyvat. Even if I were a god, I could not change this. Nora has already left; what we should do now is send her off in peace.”

Ying is not from Teyvat. She has traveled to many worlds and knows that this applies not only to Teyvat but also to other worlds.

Those worlds that do not completely separate life and death are invariably chaotic, filthy, and their ultimate fate can only be destruction.

Diluc remained silent.

He knew Wendy was right, but…

Seeing that all three of them had the same expression, Wendy sighed and said:

“I’ll ask the old man for help. He can let Nora stay in Teyvat for another day, but she will have to leave after that.”

Almost the instant Wendy finished speaking, Diluc grabbed his hand:

"Lord Barbatos, what did you say?!"

Diluc was so shocked that he started shouting "Barbatos!"

Wendy felt the strength of Luke's grip on her hand, gently patted it, and repeated what she had said before.

Diluc was so moved that tears streamed down his face. He would gladly give his life to see Nora again, even for just one day.

"Wendy, can you really do that?!"

Paimon's big eyes were wide open, full of anticipation.

Wendy: "I can't do it alone, but with Grandpa's help, we should be able to."

Ying: "Then what are we waiting for? Let's go find Zhongli right now!"

Diluc was also anxious and urged Anemo to set off immediately.

Wendy was actually quite interested too, and he said to the group:

“Traveler, you and Paimon can use the teleportation anchor, so you should go find the old man first. He is currently listening to a story in Liyue Harbor. You should know where he is. I will be there with Diluc shortly.”

Paimon and Ying nodded and left. Before leaving, Paimon turned back to urge them on:

"Then you'd better hurry!"

After Luna and Paimon left, Diluc suddenly looked at Venti, a look that made Venti feel guilty.

"Um, what's wrong?"

"Did you already foresee that Nora's soul was taken away by the Abyss?"
