Genshin Impact: I wrote the plot into a novel to spoil the future

In the past, people would have been worried, since Wan Ye was a wanted criminal.

However, after the Eye Hunt Order was lifted, Manyo was no longer a wanted criminal, so everyone was quite relaxed about Manyo being called away.

Only the crew of the "Southern Cross" found it strange that Manyo, who was low-key on the ship, was so popular in Inazuma. A group of people came to ask them about Manyo.

They knew that Manyo had withstood Thor's attack, but they didn't know the magnitude of that attack. So the traveler gave an analogy:

"Just like the Big Dipper cleaving through the sea and mountains."

Crew members: Doesn't that make it clear to us?

They may not understand anything about Thor, but they absolutely idolize the eldest sister.

However, Beidou himself was somewhat flattered, comparing himself to Thor?

She can only destroy seamounts, but Thor can destroy islands directly.

Beidou seemed to ponder for a moment, then laughed: "Hahaha, is that so? Then I really need to work hard."

Since her friends and crew have such high expectations of her, all she, as their leader, has to do is meet those expectations!

Wan Ye nodded: "If it's Big Sister Beidou, then it's definitely possible."

He wasn't flattering anyone. As a member of the Southern Cross, he also greatly admired Hokuto. Hokuto could be considered the idol of all the members of the Southern Cross.

Ying became interested upon seeing this sentence. Was it the way Beidou destroyed Haishan? He wanted to see it for himself.

Even if you're not as strong as her, it doesn't matter. A true martial artist should humbly seek knowledge and will surely gain inspiration from the opponent's martial arts.

The traveler in the book didn't have so many thoughts; she obediently went to the Tenryo Envoy's Office, intending to find Manyo.

As expected of a traveler, she entered the Tianling Fengxing Mansion as if it were her own home.

You should know that this is the residence of the Tenryo magistrate, and the Inazuma general Sara also lives here. It is a military stronghold, yet she entered it as if it were empty.

Come to think of it, not to mention that Yingmei is a favorite of the general, the marriage of the Heavenly Commander was also arranged by the traveler.

Yingmei swaggered into the magistrate's office, and Kujo Kamaji saw her and immediately said, "Welcome!"

Character Voice Lines - Dolly: About the Demon Blade

"It looks really good. I feel like there's a market for it. Hmm, let's try making it into a special effects toy knife."

Chapter 798 Wan Ye's Fans?

Kujo Kamaji greeted them, "Hello. We were just talking about the abolition of the 'Eye-Hunting Order.' Since you're here, please listen in."

He invited Wan Ye here to express goodwill, and he spoke in official jargon.

The ultimate goal was to help the Kaede family restore their reputation, which was also a way of expressing gratitude to Manyo.

Kujo Kamaji asked the traveler, "You should know a little about the Kaedehara family, right?"

Everyone exclaimed, "I know them way too well! Nobody knows the Kaede family better than me!"

The previous story of the Five Song Immortals gave a general overview of the Maple Plains family, while the island story detailed the changes in the Maple Plains family, making it incredibly informative.

If nothing unexpected happens, he should know the Kaedehara family even better than Kujo Kamaji in the story.

Kujo Kamaji explained his understanding: "In short, Inazuma used to have a group of official swordsmiths who inherited and carried forward the Shogun's sword-forging techniques, and the Kaedehara family was one of them."

"However, at one point, some swordsmiths defected to the Kingdom of Winter, and both the Kaedehara and Kamisato families were held accountable for mismanagement, experiencing a period of great upheaval."

"However, we later learned that the mastermind behind this was the Fools. It's inappropriate and unfair to attribute all the blame to the Kaedehara and Kamisato families."

Kujo Kamaji also had a good understanding of the Kaedehara family.

Now that most of the important figures in Inazuma already know part of the truth, he summoned Manyo this time to offer compensation to the Kaedehara family.

Compensation will be provided, but the truth about the incident can only be investigated in secret. This is mainly to prevent the fools from becoming desperate and harming the remaining swordsmiths.

The shogunate's compensation was quite good; at least it would ensure that Manyo would have enough to eat and wear in the future, and he could return to being a master craftsman to vindicate the Kaedehara family.

However, Wan Ye himself hesitated. He actually preferred a life of wandering the world. In his words, "I am the breeze." How could the wind be bound by a grand mansion?

However, as the heir of the Kaedehara family, he did have the idea of ​​restoring the family's reputation, and he believed that this was his responsibility, so Man Ye hesitated.

Seeing Manyo hesitate, Kujo Kamaji continued to persuade him: "If you agree, I think many of the rumors and slanders about you circulating in the streets will disappear."

The rumors about Manyo mainly stemmed from the fact that people didn't believe Manyo could withstand "Musou's One Strike," and that Manyo had also activated lightning in addition to wind element at the time.

This gave the 'street swindler' a reason to criticize him, and everyone started slandering him as 'Little Sugar'.

No, they're all slandering him for using the Fools' Evil Eye.

Because of the Fools' conspiracy, Inatsume already harbored resentment towards them, and this rumor further damaged Manyo's reputation.

Paimon protested for Manyo: "Huh? But people who use the Evil Eye age rapidly, and Manyo hasn't become like that..."

It didn't turn out that way... did it?

Manyo himself had white hair with a slight hint of yellow-red in the autumn colors, so some people might think that his hair turned white overnight because he used the Evil Eye to take the "Sword of No Thought".

Well, actually nobody thinks so, because the Manyo family has a long history of white hair, while the Kaede family has always been the "thong" faction.

There seems to be no reason to prove that Manyo used the Evil Eye, but when people are angry, they don't care about cause and effect.

Anyway, it's abnormal that you used two types of elemental power, no matter why.

Yingmei's expression was somewhat subtle at this point. Using two elemental powers is abnormal? Then what about me? Why is no one spreading rumors that I use the Evil Eye?

Although I don't have a full head of white hair, Paimon does. What if Paimon took the blame for me?

Yingmei was a little confused, but in fact no one would spread rumors about her, because her identity was too extraordinary.

The Kaedehara family has fallen into decline, and Manyo is just a wandering samurai; it's no big deal for him to spread a few rumors.

What is Yingmei's identity? A Mondstadt Honor Knight, a Liyue Hero, the Inazuma Liberator, and the First Sage of Sumeru. You're spreading rumors about her?

All I can say is that the rumor was spread this morning, and someone came knocking on the door this afternoon.

This is the power of status. Manyo in the story also understood this very well. He knew that as long as the shogunate supported him, the storm of rumors would soon subside.

[Manyo pondered: "Hmm, let me think about it."]

Although he knew this would stop the rumors, he still preferred to maintain his free life.

So instead of dwelling on that point, he chose to steer the conversation toward the traveler, asking if the traveler had something to ask him.

After listening to the commotion for a while, the traveler finally remembered his purpose and told Manyo about what had just happened, especially the fact that the other party's swordsmanship was similar to Manyo's.

Manyo's family is a family of sword forgers. To verify the quality of a sword, they would naturally test it. Manyo's swordsmanship is actually a swordsmanship that gradually evolved from a sword-testing technique. Ordinary people should not be similar to him.

Wan Ye analyzed, "This is very different from practical battlefield martial arts; it's hard to imagine it's just a coincidence..."

Manyo found this coincidence intriguing and decided to investigate the attacker's identity with the traveler.

An investigation requires clues, so the traveler and Manyo went to the detective agency to inquire about information.

The detective agency's intelligence is quite sharp; they were the ones who provided the information when we captured Ichito.

Indeed, quite a few people at the detective agency are asking about Man-yo; it seems there are quite a few who want to cause trouble for Man-yo.

Moreover, they offered a hefty price, willing to pay a million Mora just for asking about some details of Manyo's life.

Paimon exclaimed in surprise: "Several, several million?! Wow..."

Although hesitant, Paimon frowned and said seriously, "...No, even that's not right..."

Paimon almost betrayed Mayo for a few million Mora. No, to put it another way, Paimon gave up millions of Mora for Mayo!

The people of Fontainebleau found it rather strange. Why would someone spend millions to inquire about the details of Wan Ye's life? Was this someone seeking revenge or a fan? It was hard to tell.

The wealthy people here spend money like this when they inquire about Ms. Funina, but they really like her.

In fact, Manyo has quite a few fans, especially with the 'promotion' of the prophecy book.

Originally, all people knew was that Wanye had taken a blow from Thor, and at most they thought it was amazing, but they also had some doubts.

Now that the prophecy has drawn out the process, dispelling doubts is secondary; the main thing is... he's so handsome!

Manyo has a kind of detached temperament. Although he is not weak in emotion, he just makes people feel that he is detached and elegant. This kind of 'cool and aloof widower' feeling is still very popular.

Add to that Man-yo's expression, which is on par with Ayato's—he looks at a dog with such affection.

The seemingly aloof widower's eyes held a hidden affection, which resonated with many people's sensibilities.

Chapter 799 Madam, you didn't want this either...

There are so many people in Teyvat who love Manyo that many people will even spend a lot of money to find out the movements of the Southern Cross fleet, just in order to arrive at their destination a step ahead of time and see Manyo.

So when the detective agency members said that, it was hard to tell whether the person asking for information was an enemy or a fan.

However, these kinds of obsessive fans are not much different from enemies.

Aside from that, the detective agency didn't have any useful intelligence; they hadn't received any reports of anyone attacking others.

Furthermore, if there are indeed victims, the Heavenly Commander will intervene in such a serious matter.

It seems that the traveler may be the first victim, and no one else has been attacked.

Yingmei is highly skilled in combat and was completely unharmed after the fight. She never even considered calling the police. The Tenryo Magistrate only found out about the incident because of Manyo.

However, it wasn't entirely without clues. Ryuji from the detective agency did know some minor details, such as two people having gone missing in the city.

One was a collector, and the other was a descendant of the Tenmoku family, specifically the successor of the "Tenmoku School" of Thunder and Lightning.

Now, of the five transmissions of Raiden, only the Kaedehara family's "Isshinden" and the Tenmoku family's "Tenmoku-ryu" remain.

Wan Ye, the successor of the Isshin lineage, no longer intends to continue forging weapons. It can be said that only the Tenmoku lineage remains of the five lineages of Raiden.

Tenmoku-ryu has a unique characteristic: they believe in trusting only their own muscle-forging memory, built up through countless hours of practice, rather than relying on others. Because of this, they were not fooled by fake sword manuals and suffered minimal losses.

The One Heart School pursues the unity of mind and sword. Other schools choose the sword, but the One Heart School chooses the sword.

Anyone who didn't know better would think they were forging magic wands and even choosing their own wizards.

Thinking about it carefully, wasn't it only after Raiden and Raiden truly achieved a 'connection of minds' that Raiden was able to unleash the power of their shared dream?

Isn't this also a kind of selection of people by a knife? No wonder it's called 'One Heart'.

Putting aside the question of who chooses whom, Kujo Sara frowned upon seeing this future information, taking the matter quite seriously.

The Five Transmissions of Lightning is a skill of the General. She missed it a hundred years ago, but in this era, she is a general personally appointed by the General. She cannot allow the General's skill to be lost again!

It's somewhat fortunate that the travelers discovered this, otherwise it could have been quite dangerous.

Testing a knife is no friendly activity; it can really kill people.

Some officials in the Kansai Enforcement Office were rather pleased. Another "Five Transmissions of Thunder and Lightning"? Could it be another trick by the Fools?

Are the Fools up to trouble again? Great!

Now we can use this as an excuse to further exploit the situation and embezzle the compensation from the Fools! What should we do with this money?

What? They're siding with the fools? The current magistrate has been purged; no one sides with the fools anymore. Their hearts are only filled with loyalty to the shogun!

In the book, the traveler and Manyo continue their investigation, this time looking for the head of the Tenmoku family—Tenmoku Juju.

The old man knew Wan Ye; after all, the two families were old friends and had even communicated a few years ago.

Although many people feel that the decline of the Kaede family was a long time ago, it's like looking at history.

But in fact, Manyo himself is not that old. The complete decline of the Kaedehara family has only been a few years, longer than the Kamisato family.

The two chatted about all sorts of things, starting with their respective craftsmanship techniques and exchanging compliments before getting to the main topic.

As for the main topic, it naturally concerns the missing person in his family, his nephew, Yuya Tenmoku.

Unfortunately, Tianmu Fifteen also had no clues. Although a report was filed, the Tianling Enforcement Bureau did not find any leads.

The Tenmoku family did not create anything like the 'Caged Bird' to prevent their skills from leaking out, and they still do not know whether Tenmoku Yuya is alive or dead.

It's not that there's no information at all. At least we know that before Yuya Tenmoku disappeared, she said she wanted to give her uncle a gift. She didn't say what the gift was, but we know that she ended up going to a warehouse.

That warehouse was the same one that the other missing person had used to store the family members' belongings.

The warehouse caught fire, and the two men were never seen again.
