He had already gone blind as soon as he arrived in Genshin Impact.

"Alright, let's go there and get it done."

Following Wu Di's gaze, Ayaka Kamisato spotted a bench, and it was very close; she estimated she could reach it in less than a minute.

At this moment, the girl began to feel a little resentful. Why was this bench placed so close by?

But there's no way around it; time is limited, and I can't afford to waste it.

She reached out and wrapped her arms around his neck, leaning against his back with all her might, a sense of security enveloping her entire body.

Feeling his body temperature and smelling his pleasant scent, the girl was momentarily captivated, forgetting the time and place.

It wasn't until I realized I was sitting on a cold bench that I came to my senses.

Did you know a minute could go by so fast?

The girl sighed inwardly, then felt her socks being taken off. She looked over instinctively and saw that Wu Di had taken them off.

At this moment, the girl's originally fair and delicate feet, which were particularly beautiful, were now marred by redness and swelling at the ankles.

However, Ayaka Kamisato wasn't paying attention to that. Instead, she felt a shyness creeping over her as she noticed Wu Di staring intently at her feet.

Feeling a little embarrassed, she moved her toes around, and then she felt her feet being grabbed. Immediately afterwards, a cool and comfortable sensation came from the red and swollen area of ​​her ankle, which made her subconsciously make a sound.

"Hmm~".

Then, in the next moment, she realized that she had made an embarrassing sound, and her face instantly turned red, although it was harmless under the cover of the mask.

But the cool and comfortable feeling came like waves crashing in, one after another, forcing Ayaka Kamisato to tense her body and forcefully suppress the embarrassing sounds she was about to make.

The girl felt strange. She usually relieved her injuries in this way, so why did it feel so irritating this time?

After a while, the comfortable feeling finally stopped, and the pain also stopped, but Ayaka Kamisato was breathing heavily, trying to regulate her breathing.

Almost.

Ayaka Kamisato felt she almost couldn't hold back anymore; she wanted to die in front of her "idol"—she didn't want to do that.

However, being a skilled practitioner of Kendo, he quickly adjusted his state.

Despite feeling able to leave after seeing Wu Di's situation, her inner childish thoughts resurfaced.

She then said in a soft tone that although the pain was gone, she still felt unable to walk.

It was strange, she found it very strange. She had never done these things before, but she had inexplicably learned to act soft and gentle, hoping that he would care about her.

Clearly, when she saw Ayaka Kamisato crouching down and waiting for her to come up behind him, she felt that she had succeeded.

He excitedly climbed onto Wu Di's back, enjoying his second chance.

A moment later, as fireworks displayed their dazzling yet fleeting beauty in the sky.

The girl felt that this was the happiest celebration she had ever experienced...

Chapter 170 Since the current voice cannot be transmitted

—Day Three—The Celebration Begins—Barbara's Round

Time begins to reverse...

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it's almost time for the celebration to begin, but there's still plenty of time to prepare.

Barbara originally planned to just go and have fun like everyone else, and watch the fireworks.

At this moment, Yae no Miko suggested that since they were going to participate in the celebration, they should do as the locals do.

As she said this, she opened a room containing a collection of various kimonos and other accessories.

The five women present immediately became interested, but two of them could only watch.

Under the expectant gaze of Yae no Miko, Barbara and the others entered the room and began selecting clothes that they liked and that suited them.

After browsing for a while, Barbara hesitated between a pink kimono adorned with cherry blossoms and a dark blue kimono adorned with snow lotus flowers.

However, she had a good idea. She took two kimonos to Wu Di and asked him which one suited her better.

He pondered for a while, looking around carefully, and then decided that the pink one suited him better.

The others had also made their choices by this time. Columbia chose a snow-white kimono adorned with snowflakes, while Tenri chose an orange kimono adorned with maple leaves.

After everyone made their choices, they returned to their rooms. Under Yae no Miko's guidance, they put on their kimonos, and after her adjustments, a beautiful young girl appeared.

As for the costumes, they thought about it and decided against it; trying them out was enough, no need to change their entire outfits. (Mind blank)

Then Barbara looked at Yae no Miko, who hadn't changed her clothes, and asked curiously.

"Priestess, aren't you going to the celebration?"

"Oh dear, there's nothing I can do about it. After all, I'm the chief priest. During the celebrations, I can only sit in a specific place. It's the same every year."

"But don't worry about me, I'll sneak out to play."

Hearing Yae no Miko say this, and seeing the confident expression on her face, Barbara felt relieved and then began to check herself again to make sure she was behaving appropriately.

After confirming everything, she couldn't wait to come outside the room, stand in front of Wu Di, strike a playful pose, and ask how she was doing.

"It looks great on you, Barbara."

"Hehehe."

Barbara was happy to hear the voice she wanted, but at the same time, a sense of shyness began to surface within her.

Then, quite naturally, she came to Wu Di's side, hugged his arm, and started to act coquettishly towards him.

Then the others came out, and seeing Barbara and Wu Di being so intimate, they didn't say anything. After all, they could do the same if they wanted to.

This is a privilege of being "family".

Barbara and Tenri originally wanted to help Wu Di change into a kimono, but when he heard that the pants part of the kimono was cut out, which meant there were no pants, he was disappointed.

He then quickly shook his head; he really couldn't stand that drafty feeling.

When Wu Di refused, the women present felt it was a pity, after all, he had such an androgynous appearance, it was a real shame he never wore women's clothing.

However, there was no other way. With Yae no Miko's reminder, setting off at this time would allow them to stroll through the festival when there weren't many people around.

Following her instructions, Barbara and her group left Narukami Shrine. As for why they didn't fly there directly using the jelly, it was because they still needed to pick up Ayaka Kamisato.

After waiting a short while at the Kamisato residence, Ayaka Kamisato came out. After a brief chat, the group headed off to the festival.

Upon arriving at the festival venue, just as Yae no Miko had said, there weren't many people around, so we could have a good time.

The air was filled with the sweet aroma of the festival, and joyful laughter echoed throughout.

Seeing Tenri's eager expression, it seemed she couldn't hold back any longer, so she told Wu Di and then left with Ayaka Kamisato and Columbia.

[The timeline is starting to change...]

Watching the three girls leave, Barbara saw this as a great opportunity, and she decided to take action.

Looking down at Wu Di's empty hands, Barbara naturally took his hand and walked with him in a leaning posture.

To outsiders, they looked like a very loving young couple, and Barbara enjoyed the attention they received.

At that moment, a clear voice rang in my ears.

"Hello, would you be interested in hanging up a prayer ema (ema)?"

She glanced over instinctively and saw a witch, who called out to them.

Beside her were three rows of shelves, each with a name on it: "Marriage," "Career," and "Family."

In front of the "marriage" display, Barbara saw some loving couples like them and learned what this blessing ema (votive plaque) really was.

However, still very curious, she took Wu Di's hand and went there, listening to the shrine maiden's explanation that she wrote her wishes on a prayer ema and then hung it in the place where she wanted to pray.

Holding the pen, the girl glanced back and forth between the "Marriage" and "Family" shelves, then looked at Wu Di beside her. She knew what to write.

He then wrote a simple sentence as if guided by divine inspiration, and then went to the "family" shelf, where he and Wu Di hung up their "wishes".

The two looked at the words written on the prayer ema, smiled at each other, and left to continue exploring the festival.

The prayer emoji at this time reads:

"I hope that my family can all be healthy, happy and joyful."

Sometimes, heartfelt blessings can unexpectedly warm the hearts of those around us.

Next, the two wandered among the food stalls, enveloped in a joyful and happy atmosphere.

They strolled around, stopping frequently, having a wonderful time.

As they walked, the two arrived at the area outside the celebration.

This is a place near a cliff, but the surrounding area is very open, and you can see Inazuma Castle directly.

Most importantly, there's no one here, and the atmosphere is perfect. Barbara wants to take this opportunity to make another bold move.

The girl faced the boy in front of her with a very serious expression.

She had something important to say to herself.

Realizing this, the boy unconsciously looked at the girl in front of him, took off his mask, and waited earnestly for her words.

At this moment, a feeling of shyness welled up in the girl's heart. Although they usually acted very intimately, she thought she had gotten used to it.

However, when it came to expressing her feelings, she couldn't help feeling shy and nervous, but when she looked at the boy in front of her...

Memories of my past kept replaying in my mind, and a driving force called "courage" slowly emerged from the depths of my heart.

At that moment, all the words I had prepared in my mind vanished completely.

Simply express your feelings; there's no need to say too much.

The girl mustered her courage and slowly began to speak.

"Xiao Di, I—".

Whoosh—Bang! Bang!

The dazzling, beautiful, and fleeting sound of fireworks exploding drowned out the sounds behind the girl, causing her to pause for a moment and drawing the attention of the two people behind her.

The fireworks were beautiful and lovely, but they came at a rather unfortunate time.

The girl realized that her voice had been completely drowned out by the sound of fireworks exploding.

Since our voices cannot be heard now, we can only...
