Genshin Impact: Return of the Immortal Realm starts with being chased by Shadow

She stared at the notes and remained silent for a long time.

"call……"

Finally, she breathed a long sigh of relief, and then looked at Lin Jinnian.

"sorry to keep you waiting."

"How about it?"

"I want to...share the truth about this notebook with you. [Chun]'s true identity is my mother."

However, Lin Jinnian was not surprised at all when he learned the truth, but nodded calmly.

"yes."

"You seem to have known this in advance."

"Well, I guess."

"Guess...?"

However, Kamisato Ayaka didn't really believe Lin Jinnian's statement. She always felt that he actually understood everything.

"Those snacks..."

"They are all prepared for you."

It turns out... Lin Jinnian prepared the snacks just for himself from the beginning. He had long known that there was no such person as [Chun].

He obviously guessed it but didn’t tell himself...Lin Jinnian, the bad guy...

Chapter 167 The breeze, the bright moon, and love

Although Kamisato Ayaka complained that Lin Jinnian was hiding the truth from her, she felt a warmth flow in her heart when she thought that he had done so much for her own sake.

"Thank you."

"It's nothing."

After all, for Lin Jinnian, it is a good thing to add a touch of sweetness to Linghua's ordinary life.

"But let's talk about notes."

The topic almost went off the rails, he warned.

Kamisato Ayaka calmed down her emotions and spoke slowly.

"Most of what is written in the notes are my mother's private and trivial thoughts in daily life... Those things that we think are related to "Chun" are also her thoughts. "

In other words, those design drawings and exotic cuisine were actually things her mother wanted to try.

Kamisato Ayaka's mother, Kamisato Hanadai, has been in charge of various affairs as the mistress of the Kamisato family since she married into the Kamisato family.

She is relatively noble in status, and every move she makes represents the Kamisato family.

People are always looking at her, and in this case, she doesn't have much time to do what she wants to do.

Therefore, [Chun] was born.

Kamisato Hanadai pinned his thoughts on [Tsubaki]...making her a different person.

However, perhaps it was too long ago, and unconsciously, it seemed that in Kamisato Ayaka's memory, only the majestic and noble side of her mother remained.

But when she saw this notebook, she realized that her mother was exactly the same as her. No matter what responsibilities they had, they were just ordinary people.

I like beautiful clothes, want to try the food of each region, and long for the beautiful scenery I have never seen before...

Kamisato Ayaka can understand her mother's thoughts very well, because she also has such a side.

Not as Kamisato Ayaka, but as an ordinary girl.

She would also always envy that traveler, who could do what he wanted freely, travel to the seven countries for adventure, and travel with friends...

Perhaps [Tsubaki] is not only the spiritual sustenance of Kamisato Hanayo, but also the epitome of Kamisato Ayaka's inner side that yearns for freedom.

However, throughout his life, Kanato Kadai was unable to step out of Inazuma and realize his dreams, see the scenery he wanted to see, do the things he wanted to do, and meet the people he wanted to see.

Eventually he became ill due to overwork and died of illness.

And what about Kamisato Ayaka?What does her future hold?

Like her mother?No.

"My mother and I are facing the same thing."

"She placed unachievable things on "Tsubaki", but I...have already made up my mind. "

Kamisato Ayaka made up her mind to spend every day without regrets.

So now...she looked at Lin Jinnian and said seriously.

"Lin Jinnian, can you accompany me for a walk?"

"it is good."

……

Returning to the guarding forest, the two of them took a stroll in the moonlight.

It was already dark at this time, but it was not too dark under the moonlight.

As the moonlight fell, Lin Jinnian had already noticed that the current atmosphere was a bit subtle.

It seemed like a sign of something big happening.

Sure enough, Kamisato Ayaka who was walking in front suddenly asked without looking back.

"Lin Jinnian, how long have you been here at Dao's Wife?"

"It's been almost a year."

He pondered for a moment and replied.

Counting it all...it's been a while since he returned to Teyvat and to Inazuma.

"Um……"

Time passes quickly, like flowing water and falling cherry blossoms.

"So, what are your plans for the future?"

Kamisato Ayaka pretended to be casual and asked casually.

"future……"

Lin Jinnian thought very seriously.

In the future, he may travel with Ying... maybe to Xumi... to Fontaine... to many places.

But that is still too far away and far from what should be considered now.

"I may travel with Ying in the future. But in the end... I will stay with Inazuma."

"……yes."

Hearing Lin Jinnian's words, Kamisato Ayaka paused for a moment, but still did not look back. Her happiness and anger could not be heard from her voice.

She walked forward, but her pace was much brisker.

There was a cherry tree blooming beside the creek not far away. Kamisato Ayaka walked near it and finally stopped.

"Ayaka..."

She turned around, her eyes filled with autumn water, and her brows revealed endless affection.

"Lin Jinnian, can I borrow some of your time? I have something I want to do."

"..."

Without waiting for Lin Jinnian to respond, Kamisato Ayaka took out her folding fan and slowly stepped into the trickling stream.

She walked to the middle of the stream, took a deep breath, and then looked back at Lin Jinnian.

"Please, watch me well."

She hummed a song softly and began to dance under the moon.

The figure is agile and the movements are frivolous, like an egret dancing in the water.

No matter how beautiful the words are, they cannot describe the shocking scene in front of me.

Lin Jinnian felt a trance in his heart, and he accidentally lost his sight.

But there seems to be something missing from this peaceful and beautiful scene.

As he thought, a breeze came from nowhere... and scattered the cherry blossoms on the branches, causing the petals to fall like fine snow. It also blew away the dark clouds in the sky, allowing the moonlight to fall on the girl's body again. …

At this time, Kamisato Ayaka happened to dance her folding fan and released a beam of ice into the sky.

In an instant, half of the bright moon was stained with frost.

A burst of soft and delicate white light flashed, followed by scattered cherry blossoms.

Ice crystals and falling cherry blossoms are floating in the air, flying, intertwining, like a dream...

Soon after, as the splendor dissipated, everything returned to calm.

Kamisato Ayaka also slowly stopped dancing and stood in the water looking at him with a smile.

"How is it? Is my dance... okay?"

"It's beautiful...very good-looking." Lin Jinnian praised from the bottom of his heart.

"That's good. I...I'm not good at this kind of dance. It's great that I don't have any shame. It's just a whim and I want to be willful."

After getting Lin Jinnian's affirmation, Kamisato Ayaka finally let go of her hanging heart. In order to take this step, she mustered up the courage and made a lot of determination.

"I will always remember this day."

Lin Jinnian deeply engraved every detail and scene he just saw in his memory.

The dance under the moon that Ayaka Kamisato performed for himself was enough to be remembered forever in his heart.

……

Walking on the path in the forest, when they were about to say goodbye, Lin Jinnian suddenly stopped her.

"Ayaka."

"Ok?"

Kamisato Ayaka stopped and looked back at the other party.

"If there is a chance in the future, would you like to... travel with me to places other than Inazuma?"

She was stunned for a moment, then quickly understood what Lin Jinnian meant, and then answered with a smile.

"Okay."

After the agreement was completed, Kamisato Ayaka put her hands behind her back and continued walking forward, but soon, she stopped again.

She asked with her back to Lin Jinnian.

"You'll keep your promise, right?"

"Definitely." Lin Jinnian spoke firmly.

"..."

Kamisato Ayaka didn't answer, but suddenly turned around and looked at him, the shyness and smile on her face could no longer be concealed.

"Well, it's settled then."

After these words, Kamisato Ayaka moved her lips and teeth slightly, as if she said something again, but there was no sound at all.
