In Genshin Impact, I'm really not Muzan.

When her energy level is too low, Xin Hai will show obvious impatience when talking to people. She doesn't want others to see her like this, so whenever her energy level is low, she will stay at home and be an ordinary girl.

But apart from herself, no one else knew about the energy value setting. Although there was a diary that recorded the rise and fall of the energy value, it was something that absolutely could not be shown to anyone, so Xin Hai hid it in her secret base.

But now, Suzumiya Yuu uttered the words "energy value," leaving her both puzzled and incredibly embarrassed.

"Go back and get some rest. You look very tired."

Suzumiya Yu did not answer Shinkai's question; she simply left those words behind and turned to leave.

He no longer needed to stay on Haiqi Island, so he planned to return to Narukami Island.

Xin Hai stood there, stunned, for a long time before she came to her senses, but Liang Gongyou had already left, her figure long gone.

"Ah—how could this happen?" Xin Hai covered her face, her heart unable to calm down for a long time as she recalled what had just happened.

However, the fact that Suzumiya Yu was so proactive was something to be happy about, because it would take a lot of energy for her to speak first.

After I got home today, there was an extra line in my diary.

He finally came to see me today, and a lot happened. Energy +6

......

【Ding! 】

[Redeem successful!]

[Congratulations, host! Your combat system level has increased by 1!]

[Current combat system level: +2!]

On this day, Ryou finally accumulated 50,000 points. He used all of them to upgrade the level of his battle system. Although it hurt, the rewards were considerable.

Then, he opened the system's character panel.

[Character: Suzumiya Yui]

Age: 18

【Intelligence: 9】

【Charm: 12】

[Stamina: Limit]

[Constitution: Ghost]

[Breathing Techniques: Lightning, Water, Fire]

Blood Demon Art: Devastating Strike

Points earned: 20

Compared to the beginning, the content on the character panel has changed a lot. Because the battle system has been upgraded twice, Suzumiya Yu's stamina has reached its limit.

To upgrade the combat system level again, a full 100,000 points are needed, a number that inspires despair. Ryouya Suzumiya knows that he probably won't have the ability to upgrade the combat system level again for the next ten years.

Just like last time, he found Utagawa and a few others to be his test subjects. The results of the experiment were obvious: his strength had increased by a whole level.

Now, Suzumiya Yu can easily split a small hill in half, and she's much faster than before.

He was satisfied, but also a little worried. Could he really defeat General Thunder?

To verify this, he quickly took action.

First, he discussed it with the two siblings, Kamisato and Sasara, and then, through Kujo Sara's first-person perspective, he learned about the patrol route of the Tenryo Magistrate's patrol team in Inazuma Castle.

Afterwards, he called Rosalyn, Utagawa, and Uya, and told them that if he was no match for General Raiden, they should create chaos on the spot, no matter how big it was.

With all preparations complete, Suzumiya Yuu headed to Inatsuma Castle.

It was the dead of night, and there wasn't a single pedestrian on the streets of Inazuma Castle. This was largely due to Muzan Kibutsuji, especially after his visit to Inazuma Castle, which had instilled immense fear in the people.

However, this is for the best, as Suzumiya Yu doesn't want to be discovered by a group of ordinary people while she is on her way.

His target this time was the Thousand-Armed Hundred-Eyed Statue located in front of the castle tower gate.

The Thousand-Handed, Hundred-Eyed Statue was built when the Eye Hunt Order was issued. It is a statue of General Thunder and Lightning, specifically used to house the divine eyes recovered by the Eye Hunt Order.

Suzumiya Yuu planned to remove all the God's Eyes from the statue, which would inevitably attract the attention of the Thunder General. If he wanted to test whether he had the ability to defeat the Thunder General, this was the only way.

......

Soon, Suzumiya Yu arrived at his destination. He could see many patrol teams of the Heavenly Rank Enforcers around the statue, but since he already knew the patrol route, it was incredibly easy for him to avoid them.

The only thing to note is that there are soldiers standing guard in front of the statue, who rotate every few hours, so no one will fall asleep.

"Sigh, this job is getting more and more tiring," one of the two soldiers on guard duty in front of the statue couldn't help but say.

“Yeah, I wonder when this Eye Hunt order will end, although it doesn’t really affect us.” Another soldier nodded in agreement.

They have been standing guard in front of the statue for more than two years, starting this job shortly after the Eye Hunting Order was issued. Although the workload is not heavy, the process is really boring.

What's more, Inazuma has encountered a demon who kills at night, and they certainly don't want him to come after them. After all, who wouldn't want to live longer?

Suddenly, a black figure flashed by, and before the two knew what had happened, they lost consciousness and fell to the ground.

Suzumiya Yu appeared, dealt with the only obstacle, and then walked to the Thousand-Armed Hundred-Eyed Statue.

The statue is inlaid with various divine eyes of different elements. Some of them glow, which are the real divine eyes, while the rest do not glow and are high-quality replicas made by craftsmen. They are tools specifically used to evade the Eye Hunt Order.

Suzumiya Yu watched for a while, then casually plucked a God's Eye from the statue.

The instant he activated the Eye of God, countless fragments of memory flooded into his mind, forming one scene after another. These scenes strung together, becoming the experiences of someone.

A powerful desire surged from within the Eye of God, which Suzumiya Yu could sense; it was the Eye of God yearning to return to its master's side.

It even poured energy into Yuu Suzumiya's body, as if it wanted him to take it home.

Chapter Ninety-Seven: A Power Capable of Rivaling Gods

If I'm not mistaken, that energy should be the power of people's wishes. If Yuu Ryou absorbs it all, she will be able to defeat Raiden General without a doubt.

However, Suzumiya Yuu hasn't found a way to absorb these wishes yet. Touching them one by one with his hands would be too time-consuming, and he simply doesn't have the opportunity.

Just as Suzumiya Yu was about to reach for the second Eye of God, a chilling sensation suddenly spread from the soles of his feet throughout his entire body.

This wasn't the first time Suzumiya Yu had felt this way; the last time it happened was when he was being slashed by the Thunder General.

Turning around, a Thunderous Eye of Evil appeared behind Suzumiya Yu at some point. Soon, a katana imbued with dense lightning element appeared from the other end of the eye, attempting to annihilate him.

"They found out so quickly?!" Ryou was shocked. He had only taken one Eye of God, yet the Thunder General had discovered it so quickly, which surprised him greatly.

Fortunately, he was fully prepared, so his body reacted quickly before General Thunder's blade even fell.

With a reaction speed beyond human limits, she turned her body to the side. Unlike last time when she desperately tried to defend against the attack, this time, Suzumiya Yu actually dodged the blow.

The corrosive lightning element slashed his cheek, and Ryou's face began to rot rapidly. However, after the lightning element was broken down, it instantly returned to normal.

On the other side of the Thunderous Eye of Evil, General Thunder saw that Yui Suzumiya had dodged his attack and couldn't help but show a look of surprise on his face.

She tore through space and descended in person, causing the surrounding air to tremble.

Meanwhile, the commotion attracted the attention of the surrounding patrol teams, who rushed over and saw the general, who would never normally show his face.

"Get out!"

Just as the patrol was about to approach, General Thunder gave them orders. She knew very well that these men were no match for her, not even cannon fodder.

Moreover, she doesn't need anyone's help at all.

“Those who defy eternity shall be punished.” General Thunder said coldly to Ryou Miyako, “I already gave you a chance before, but you insisted on courting death.”

After saying that, she raised her weapon, intending to strike again, but Suzumiya Yu attacked first.

"Flame Breathing - First Form - Shiranui!"

His body lunged forward at lightning speed, and the katana covered in blazing flames slashed straight at General Raiden. But the general reacted quickly and immediately swung his weapon to block the attack.

Intense energy erupted in the air. Because it was on the defensive, General Thunder was blasted off the platform, but quickly landed safely.

When she looked up, her face was filled with disbelief.

General Thunder never underestimated Suzumiya Yu. Two years ago, when she failed to kill him with her first strike, she followed the rules and did not strike a second time.

But now? Not only can his attacks not hit Suzumiya Yu, but the opponent can even threaten him.

The gap between them was like an insurmountable chasm, but Suzumiya Yu achieved such a terrifying improvement in just two short years.

Compared to the shocked Thunder General, Suzumiya Yu was overjoyed.

Finally, the gods were no longer a symbol of invincibility before him. Even though they had not yet used their full strength, he already possessed the power to rival them.

Now that the objective of this operation has been achieved, Ryoujiro Yu has no intention of staying here any longer. Although his strength has reached the required level, he is not yet 100% confident that he can defeat his opponent.

Moreover, if General Thunder were to pull him into the Pure Land of One Heart, then they would be locked in a life-or-death struggle, fighting until a victor emerged.

Suzumiya Yuu wouldn't do anything she wasn't confident about, so she wouldn't linger in battle.

"Spell activation!"

"Destruction Kill - Compass Needle!"

A twelve-pointed snowflake array appeared beneath her feet, and Suzumiya Yu began to prepare a devastating attack.

But at that moment, the world around them began to collapse and gradually turned pitch black, a sign that they were about to be pulled into the Pure Land of One Heart.

"Destruction Kill - Annihilation Style!"

All the energy in her body converged into her right fist, and the next second, Ryoujiro Yui unleashed a devastating punch. The powerful shockwave instantly restored the world to its original state, and even Raiden General had to use a technique to defend against the attack.

A huge explosion rang out, raising a cloud of smoke thick enough to completely obscure the view. Patrol teams watching from a distance were blown away by the powerful shockwave.

Once the thick smoke cleared and visibility returned, General Raiden discovered that Suzumiya Yu had already vanished.

The other party's scent still lingered in the air, indicating they must have run a long distance. It was possible to catch up, but that would consume a lot of time and energy.

Suzumiya Yu has already demonstrated the power to threaten Eternity, and Raiden General should have personally killed him, but he did not.

The thunder movie inside her stopped her.

She was puzzled by this, but she couldn't say anything because she was just a puppet and had to obey Shadow's orders in everything.

......

Meanwhile, Suzumiya Yu had already fled to a very far place. He didn't know if he would be caught by the Thunder General, but he was definitely not going to stop.
