Genshin Impact, all those behind-the-scenes big shots are me

"Because you didn't want to make a move after you heard who I was."

"Perhaps it's just that I'm wary of your father's power."

"If that's the case, then you wouldn't have told me so much; you would have left long ago."

Asmodeus turned around and saw the mocking look in the little guy's eyes, and immediately realized that he had fallen for a trap.

This guy is unexpectedly cunning.

No matter what, he is the god of wisdom, and we cannot judge him by his appearance alone. I was careless.

“Um…” Nasita suddenly bowed to Asmodeus and said, “Whatever my father did to wrong you, I apologize on his behalf. He is not in Sumeru now, but if you would like, I can show you around Sumeru.”

"..."

Is this little thing a monster?

Asmodeus was surprised. Had he made himself too obvious? He had been seen through at a glance.

“Grass God, what do you mean by this?” Apep said with dissatisfaction. “She is your father’s enemy, without a doubt. I saw her injure your father with my own eyes back then, and now you’re trying to curry favor with her? If Azir comes back, he’ll be furious with you.”

"If you say another word, I'll stew you!" Nasita turned around and glared, looking particularly fierce with her angry expression.

Apep shrank back, thinking to himself, "What do you take me for? I am the great Grass Dragon, the Grass-type Dragon King! Can't you show me some respect?"

"Forget it, there's nothing worth visiting in Sumeru."

After a series of unexpected encounters with Lord Fanes's child, Asmodeus decides to explore other places.

“Yes, yes.” Nasida ran over and grabbed her hem, grinning, “The Grand Bazaar is having dance rehearsals lately, it’s so lively, let me take you to see.”

"Ok?"

Asmodeus raised an eyebrow.

This kind of 'intimate' contact made her feel a little uncomfortable.

Appepp's eyes lit up as he watched from behind... Yes, Grass God, just like that, make her unhappy, let them fight, I, Appepp, love watching two women fight!

To His disappointment, Asmodeus, though showing impatience, did not take action and eventually went to Mount Meru with Narcida at her insistence.

"???"

As he watched the two figures fly away, three question marks slowly appeared above Appepp's head.

"Something's not right. Why is the Sustainer treating this little grass god so well?"

...

Meanwhile, in Sumeru City.

Jingshan Palace.

Two beams of light descended, transforming into the forms of the Great Tree King and the Flower Goddess.

"Strange, isn't Nasita here?" The Flower Goddess looked around. "She must have left several days ago."

The Great Compassionate Tree King said, "Today is the Day of Knowledge Recognition, we should go to the Instruction Hall."

"The Sun of Knowledge? Oh, I remember now, it's 'emptiness,' right?"

"Hmm." The Great Tree King showed a gratified expression. "Narcida is becoming more and more like the God of Grass. This is all thanks to Nasus. If it weren't for his guidance, the situation would probably be completely different."

Naxi Da is increasingly resembling a grass goddess.

They were also sensible and obedient, and worked hard for Mount Sumeru.

Although Apep always complained that Naxida was bullying people, you only need to believe half of what Caolong said. Naxida is so well-behaved, how could she be as irritable, unreasonable and domineering as He said?

"Hmph~ Yes, the child has grown up and become successful." The Flower Goddess said with a hint of sourness.

The Great Tree King chuckled: "What? Marikata, Nasita is your child to me too, and she thinks so too."

The Goddess of Flowers never had children, which is a regret for everyone. Yes, a great regret.

As close sisters with a relationship spanning thousands of years, the Great Tree King had long regarded the Flower Goddess as Naxida's mother.

The goddess of flowers sighed softly.

The child is good, cute, and excellent, but there's one bad thing: he's not my biological child.

"Alright, alright, let's go find Nasita. If all else fails, I'll give him to you when Azir comes back," the Great Tree King said half-jokingly.

To everyone's surprise, the Flower Goddess replied very seriously, "You said it yourself. When he comes back, you are not allowed to argue with me. At least until I... well, get pregnant, it's good to keep him tied up so that he won't go around seducing other women."

The Great Tree King was both amused and exasperated; how could the gentle Flower Goddess utter such lewd words?

"Don't worry, where else could he go to seduce women? He's practically traveled all over the seven kingdoms."

"Too."

"Let's go."

The two walked out of Jingshan Palace.

The guards waiting outside were already used to it.

Although the Grass God is Naxi Da, the Great Compassion Tree King has always been there. Now the desert and the rainforest have formed an alliance, and Mount Sumeru is unified. Not only do the people on both sides have close ties, but the gods also have close ties.

Following the thick branches of the sacred tree downwards, we encountered many people along the way. Outside the Church, a group of scholars and guards were gathered together, looking anxious.

"The Great Tree King has arrived!"

One person exclaimed excitedly.

Then the scholars walked over one after another.

It stopped about ten meters away.

"what happened?"

The Great Tree King and the Flower Goddess exchanged a glance.

"Great Tree King," the sage Elhesen bowed respectfully, "do you know where the Grass God is?"

"Grass Goddess? Isn't she presiding over the Hidden Treasure Day?"

"No, the schedule was originally planned a long time ago, and Lord Grass God also made a promise, but... the time is almost here."

"She hasn't come back yet?"

"Not really."

Beside her, the Great Sage's secretary, Farusan, recounted the previous incident of the behemoths attacking the city.

When he heard that the Yellow Sand Dragon was being chased by the Grass God, the Great Tree King's lips twitched slightly.

"It might be a misunderstanding. Nasita is such a well-behaved girl."

The goddess of flowers offered quiet words of comfort, but she seemed about to laugh.

But when she heard about the appearance of a strange female deity, she could no longer laugh.

Putting aside the facts, the appearance of the term "female deity" seems rather odd when considering the past.

"Who is it this time? From the Winter Solstice? Or from Nata?" the Flower Goddess said irritably.

The Great Compassion Tree King pondered for a moment: "Don't rush to conclusions, perhaps it's just passing by."

"I hope the words you use to deceive me can convince yourself."

"..."

The Great Tree King thought to himself, "What else can I say? Is it Azir's old flame again?"

People shouldn't be, or at least shouldn't be, so pessimistic, right?

"I understand, I'll bring her over."

The Great Tree King dispersed the crowd, unleashed her divine power, and the power expanded and spread along the earth's veins to Sumeru City, forests, grasslands... Soon, she withdrew the power, and her expression became strange.

"What's wrong?" the Flower Goddess asked.

"No... um, come with me."

The Great Tree King led the Flower Goddess directly to the Grand Bazaar.

The Grand Bazaar was exceptionally lively today, and the Tibetan Recognition Day is a festival worth celebrating. The Tibetan Recognition Ceremony in Xumi is not long, and in the spare time, scholars can stroll around Xumi City and experience the local customs and culture. In particular, many hot desert girls have recently come to the Grand Bazaar, and the Zubair Stage is packed with people every day.

It is said that there will be a large-scale performance at the Zubair Theater tonight, but it is still early and the rehearsal stage has begun. However, it still cannot stop the enthusiasm of the audience. There are even many scholars who have run away from the Chancellery, since the knowledge ceremony has nothing to do with them anyway.

What attracted them was the promotional announcement for a large-scale performance at the Zubair Theater—the theater's first collaboration with members of the Desert Dance Troupe.

“oooooooh!”

"As expected of Desert Dance Crew."

“Thai pants are hot!”

"Wait, look at that, doesn't that look like the Grass God?"

At one corner of the stage, a conspicuous open space was partitioned off, where Narcida and Asmodeus were standing, while several guards looked anxious and tried to say something.

Although the Grass God often roams the streets, it was quite unexpected to see him at the Grand Bazaar on such an important day.

"Grass God, if we don't go now, it will really be too late. Sage Elhesen instructed us to find you at all costs."

Here.

The guard looked like he was about to cry.

“Alright, alright.” Nasita waved her hand. “That’s just how Elhesen is. He always makes a big fuss about everything. It’s been like that all day on Knowledge Day. There’s no need to rush. Anyway, it has nothing to do with the public. We can just handle it internally. Or how about this: let him lead a group to pretend to perform the ceremony. I’ll go back tonight and record the canned knowledge into the void.”

guard:"..."

You're really clever; you came up with such a brilliant idea.

“If there are important matters, it’s better to deal with them first,” Asmodeus, who always prioritized work, said. “Duty should outweigh personal emotions, especially for an important position like the Seven Gods. Your decision affects millions of people.”

Nasita was taken aback and blinked: "Does Asmodeus usually do things like this?"

“Me?” Asmodeus lowered his gaze slightly. “What I did was something more important.”

“So you must be ‘compassionate about the people’ right now?” Nasita smiled sweetly. “My father is the emperor of Shurima. He often tells me that for an emperor to govern a country well, it’s not about what he does every day, but about knowing what his people need. But you can’t ask people what they need. You can only feel it by immersing yourself in their lives. The desires they show without external interference are what they want most.”

Asmodeus was taken aback: "Your father said something like that?"

"Yes, and he often wanders around on his own because no one recognizes him as a human...hehe~ When he walks in a crowd, you would never guess that this is actually the famous Emperor Azir."
