Chapter 327 Let’s Have a Heart-to-Heart Talk
I'm Yingmei Grylls, and I'm going to show you how to survive in the most dangerous places in Teyvat.
Although I haven't appeared in hundreds of chapters, it doesn't mean that I don't exist. After all, this is a Genshin Impact fanfiction, so no matter what, I have to have a role as the cameraman!
As you can see, there is a mysterious masked man standing behind me. Although Paimon and I are sleeping, it doesn't mean that I can be manipulated by others.
"Hello, let's have a heart-to-heart talk, traveler!" Sitting on the balcony railing, the masked man said in a very low voice.
After hearing the sound, Ying immediately turned around alertly, holding the edgeless sword tightly in her hand, and looked at the man in front of her vigilantly.
"Who are you?" Ying asked in a low voice, feeling uneasy in her heart.
After Paimeng was woken up, she rubbed her eyes and looked at Ziying curiously: "Huh? Who is this person?"
Ying didn't have time to explain too much to Paimeng. No matter how he looked at it, the man in front of him was here to cause trouble. "I don't know either, but he is very dangerous. We must be careful when dealing with him."
The masked man chuckled, seeming to find Ying's reaction amusing: "Haha, Traveler, don't be so nervous. I just want to chat with you."
"What exactly do you want to do?" Ying gripped the hilt of the sword tightly, ready to strike at any time.
Ziying raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a strange smile: "Don't worry, I don't want to attack you yet. I just want to see if you, the traveler, are really as brave and fearless as the legend says. By the way, I have something to ask you."
Ying snorted coldly: "Humph, you don't even dare to report your name, I can't tell you anything."
A hint of admiration flashed in the masked man's eyes, but he quickly returned to his indifference: "Yes, Traveler, you do have courage. But courage cannot solve all problems."
"Well, my name is Alexei Morkonsky, a man from Winter. Of course, you can also just call me the Executor."
Alexei Morkonsky, this name was like a sharp ice blade in the cold wind, instantly cutting a hole in Ying and Paimon's hearts.
Zhidong, that remote and mysterious country, is famous for its powerful Ice God and ruthless executive officers. The man in front of him was one of them, which made Ying's vigilance extremely high.
"Executor Zhidong!" Ying's voice was filled with disbelief. "What is your purpose in coming here?"
Chen Yue jumped lightly off the balcony railing, her steps graceful and calm, as if every step was based on an invisible rhythm.
"Purpose? Oh, traveler, aren't you very curious about me? I came to you in person, why are you so indifferent?"
"Perhaps our meeting is destiny. The eyes of Winter have long been on you. Your journey, your power, and your intricate connection with the world have all made us curious. So I would like to invite you to join me, to join my organization!"
Paimon was confused, but she still tried to interrupt: "Hey! Can you big shots say something we can understand? The Traveler won't join you in Solstice, right?"
Ying nodded in affirmation and looked at Alexi firmly: "Yes, I have no intention of getting involved in any political disputes. My goal is to find my lost relatives and unravel the secrets of this world."
Chen Yue chuckled, and that smile seemed to contain endless profound meaning: "Looking for relatives, solving secrets... these all sound like great yet insignificant reasons. But do you know that sometimes, the fate of an individual is closely linked to the fate of the world? Every step you take may become the key to changing the world."
He paused and looked deeply at the stars in the night sky. "Winter is not as cold and ruthless as you think. We also have our beliefs and pursuits. As an executive officer, I am just executing the will of the God of Ice."
"Then why did you come to me?" Ying continued to ask, not wanting to be outdone.
"Because I see your potential, your courage, and your resonance with different elements. At a time when the world is about to undergo tremendous changes, your existence may be the key to balancing everything." Chen Yue's words revealed an indescribable expectation.
Ying frowned, she didn't like the feeling of being pushed around. "Even so, I will never become anyone's pawn. I will walk my own path."
“Oh, I won’t be anyone’s pawn, hahahaha, ah hahaha…”
Chen Yue's laughter echoed in the night sky, with a bit of playfulness and relief. "What a saying, 'I will walk my own path.' Indeed, everyone has the right to choose their own path, including you, the traveler. But please allow me to remind you that sometimes, choices are not completely isolated from the world. Just like the stars, though far away, they also reflect each other and affect each other's brilliance."
He slowly approached, his eyes gentle but not to be ignored, "The reason why Zhidong invited you is not to bind you under cold shackles, but to hope that your power can bring positive influence to the world. What we pursue is order and peace, and to protect this continent from unknown threats. And your power is the warm light we need."
Paimon was so anxious that she kept jumping up and down. She waved her hands, trying to interrupt this heavy topic: "Hey, hey! After all this talk, what exactly do you want the Traveler to do? Besides, there are no unknown threats in this world. All the troubles we encountered along the way are solvable!"
Chen Yue smiled at Paimeng, a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes: "Little guy, your innocence is enviable. But this world is far more complex and vast than you can imagine. In places you can't see, undercurrents are surging, and ancient powers are awakening. Their impact on this world will be unprecedented."
He turned to face Ying, his tone becoming serious and sincere: "We invite you not to ask you to join Zhidong immediately, nor to ask you to give up the journey to find your loved ones. On the contrary, we hope to be your helper. Whether it is intelligence, resources or allies, we are willing to provide them. Because we believe that you will affect the future of this world."
Ying was silent. She was fully aware of her responsibilities and mission. Finding her relatives and uncovering the secrets of the world were not only her personal wishes, but also her destiny as a traveler. Chen Yue's words made her start to think that personal power might really play a role on a broader stage.
