"I feel more and more that Mr. Stanley may be a liar..." Pamon said with some frustration.

"I think so……"

"So Stanley deliberately took a step forward and arranged a sword and shield here in order not to hurt Jack's feelings?"

"No way, who told him to brag about Jack."

Wendy seemed to understand some truth, her expression became serious, and she closed her eyes slightly.

"But...watch it again, it's really interesting."

"He who does not want to forget [the past] and abandon [the present]...if he is forced to take the first step [toward the future], in what direction will he take it?"

"Well, what are you talking about?" Paimon asked confused.

"Haha, just talking to myself."

Wendy returned to her ungrateful look.

"By the way, let's go to [Angel's Gift] tonight to see it."

At this time, none of the players watching the plot, including Lisa, realized it.

They were about to witness the scene of Wendy's divinity in the tavern.

It is also one of the most touching and famous scenes in the Genshin Legend mission.

Chapter 65 Can you give me the soul of your old friend? Players collectively break the defense! (1/5)

The time has come to night.

According to what Wendy said, he came to the tavern as promised.

Today's bartender happens to be Diluc too.

"Today, how about a [gift from an angel]."

"There aren't too many people in the tavern, so I enjoy the scene."

As Diluc said, the hall on the first floor seemed very quiet today.

To be exact, Stanley was the only one who was drunk alone, lying on the table and talking to himself.

Traveler, Paimon and Wendy chose to sit at the table opposite Stanley.

He casually ordered some drinks and focused more on the drunken conversation behind him.

"Stanley... tell me, what should I do..."

"Hey, why is he calling his name-ah?"

Paimon said doubtfully,

"Could it be that there are other people named Stanley?"

"Is there something hidden?"

At this time, Stanley, who was talking to himself, actually made a whimpering sound, and a burst of crying came from close by. At the same time, he kept chanting the name Stanley in his mouth.

No one expected that Mr. Stanley, who had experienced countless legendary adventures, would be so out of his mind at such a time.

Immediately afterwards, Stanley told an amazing past event as if he was confessing in church.

"The one who died in the Jingji Sea back then...why wasn't it me!"

"Why don't you even have the soul to stop me when I take your name? Stanley!"

"If it wasn't to protect my newcomer, you wouldn't have died in that windless place!"

"You already have the title of great adventurer, but...but just for a waste like me, you can no longer become a legend..."

The traveler and Paimon were stunned.

Wendy, on the other hand, looked indifferent, as if she had expected it.

"what on earth is it?"

"I think he did find Jhin Jihai back then, and the crisis he encountered there was real."

Wendy replied,

"It's just that the companion who took the adventure with him is the real [adventurer Stanley]."

"The real Stanley probably died to save the [Stanley] we know."

"what……"

Paimon took a moment to digest this,

"Then the reason why this [Stanley] is called Stanley is because he [stole] someone else's name?"

"I'm afraid that's what happened."

Wendy looked a little sad and didn't know what she was thinking.

Stanley over there was getting more and more excited.

"Stanley... I have been afraid for so many years. I was afraid that people in Mondstadt would forget you completely, so I told your adventure stories everywhere."

"I want everyone in Mondstadt to remember that Stanley arrived at the center of the Silent Sea... He is the greatest adventurer, and he is still alive!"

"Stanley will not die, because I am!...Because I am...Stanley..."

His emotions reached the most emotional level, and he burst into tears as if he had collapsed.

"I'm sorry, Stanley... Even I am old, even I am old..."

"Ugh……"

After a moment, Stanley suddenly asked:

"When do you guys want to eavesdrop?"

You can also feel that someone is eavesdropping around you. It seems that Stanley is not completely drunk.

Perhaps, he also wanted to take this opportunity to reveal the secret that had been buried in his heart for many years.

This secret is more like a prison to him.

"Let's go, don't ask anything, let me be alone for a while."

"But……"

At this time, a young man suddenly broke into the tavern.

"Knight of Honor, Wendy, and Paimon! Great, you are all here!"

The visitor was Jack, who looked excited.

"I've been looking for you everywhere! I'm here to say thank you. Thanks to you for helping me find the sword and shield, my parents agreed!"

"They also said they would pay someone to repair the [Brilliant Sword of Courage] and [Shield of Radiant Will], and let me take them with me on the road!"

"That's great."

Wendy smiled and asked,

"Jack, are you leaving Mondstadt and traveling to Teyvat?"

"No, I won't leave just yet. With my current ability, I'm afraid I won't be able to walk too far."

"Also, I want to hear Mr. Stanley's story again... Hehe, after all, he is the starting point of my dream."

"Stanley first..."

Jack looked at the figure on the table and was stunned for a moment.

"Ah...he's drunk again."

"See you tomorrow, sir. When you sober up, can you tell me some stories?"

Jack leaves.

After a while, Stanley also "awoke" from the wine table.

The drunkenness just now had a certain degree of performance in it.

"Jack has gone back."

"Really... Then, thank you for not telling my secret."

"Huh? Did you suddenly face reality? This is not like you before." Wendy sighed.

"I...I didn't even dare to look at him just now. His sincerity for adventure has no impurities."

"I'm a tired, useless liar, but that kid is still a shining new kid, so we can't destroy his dreams."

"You can't say he's a liar, right? Because [Stanley's] adventure stories and experiences are all true." Paimon consoled him.

"Stories...experiences...heh, forget it."

"I'm old. No matter how much I don't want to let go, I won't be able to keep many things."

"Actually, until now, my memories of adventure and Stanley... have become blurry."

"Over the years, I have lived for his stories, but I can no longer remember his character and his life, hahaha..."

"The only thing I can't forget is that he died in the Sea of ​​Silence, and the wind can't take away his soul!"

The traveler and Paimon looked at each other with some emotion.

The man in front of me has been overwhelmed by guilt in his life.

Only [Fantasy Friends] remain.

Wendy nodded slightly.

"Well... the real Stanley, in his memory, is no longer even that living friend."

"Instead, he will always be frozen in the appearance of a scarred warrior, binding his entire life."

As Wendy said,

At this time, Stanley was lying on the wine table with tears streaming down his face. He didn't look like the adventurous person he usually was.

It's like complaining, but also like repenting.

"But...adventurers can't die in that way...can't..."

Suddenly, everything around him became extremely quiet.

Only the sound of the breeze was left.

A voice asked softly:

“Hans???????

Stanley, who was lying on the wine table, trembled all over.

He raised his head with a look of shock on his face.

"How do you know my real name!?"

He has abandoned this name for so many years that it feels strange even to himself.

But the young bard in front of him accurately stated the complete name.

The boy did not answer, but behind him, a continuous breeze blew in the direction of Hans.

"wind……!?"

"It's the sound of wind that you can't get in the Jingji Sea!"

At this moment, Hans finally understood.

The young man in front of him is not a simple bard.

But the god of wind who is watching every citizen of Mondstadt, Barbatos!

No wonder the other party knew his real name.

Hans stood up from his seat excitedly.

Reach out towards the luster in front of you.
