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

"of course."

With a smile, Naxida approached Wu Di, placed her small hand on his, and spoke softly.

"My Flower Knight~".

Upon hearing this, Wu Di was stunned for a moment. In that instant, he suddenly recalled the knight novel he had seen in Inazuma.

So at this point, we should...

Wu Di knelt on one knee, placed his left hand together on his chest, gently took Naxi Da's small hand with his right hand, and spoke with a smile.

"Then let's leave here together, my 'princess'."

"Ah."

……

A while later, Wu Di led Naxida away from the "Jingshan Palace". Everything was so quiet that no one knew anything about it.

As they left, Nasita held his hand tightly the whole time. As if noticing the girl's actions, Wu Di also took her small hand in return with his large one.

This action gave Nasita a great sense of security, as if to say that he would never leave her.

By the way, Wu Di has already told Tianli and the others that he probably won't be going home for dinner tonight.

Seeing Wu Di so full of energy, they didn't know what else to say, so they simply said "Go for it!"

Thanks to the fact that it was late at night, there was no one else around except for the patrolling soldiers, so Wu Di led Naxida back to the hotel room.

After confirming that the surroundings were safe, Wu Di casually used some materials to make a simple "alarm" device.

The two then sat on the bed. Nasita reached out her hands, took Wu Di's hands, and began to guide his power.

After a slow, strange sensation subsided, Wu Di opened his eyes again and found that they were no longer in the room.

It was a place filled with madness, chaos, and pain, exactly the same as what he had experienced through his "dream" last time.

Sensing the ominous atmosphere here, Nasita's heart sank immediately, because she could feel that the pollution of consciousness here was extremely severe.

What exactly happened to the World Tree 500 years ago?

She couldn't figure it out.

"Let's go, isn't this what we came here for?"

Naxida, who was already in distress, suddenly heard Wu Di's words from the side.

Yes, we can find out what happened by going to the Great Tree King.

"Okay, let's go."

……

After leaving the cave, the two came outside and saw a giant ship floating in the air.

Through Nasita's introduction, Wu Di learned that this was a "ship of consciousness" symbolizing reason, through which one could reach the location of the World Tree.

After understanding, the two arrived on the "Ark of Consciousness," and the little incident along the way was not worth mentioning.

Once the "Ark of Consciousness" is activated and the course is determined, the rest is simply a matter of waiting.

During this waiting period, Nasita discovered that as long as she got close to Wu Di, the spatial pollution of consciousness would be greatly reduced, or even be equivalent to none.

This made her even more interested in Wu Di himself. What kind of person could possess such magical power?

Chapter 193 I Don't Want to Forget

While waiting, Nasita couldn't help but ask a question, her inner thirst for knowledge constantly urging her on.

Faced with Naxida's questions, Wu Di thought for a moment and chose to keep his past life a secret.

After all, he felt that even if he spoke, Nasita in front of him wouldn't understand, because it had been a very, very long time.

Even without the help of the World Tree and the blessing of the Heart of God, Narcida could still sense that the other party was hiding something.

But she knew that everyone has their own secrets, and that she had offended them.

Thinking this way, Nasida apologized to Wu Di, then dismissed it with a laugh, treating it as just a simple chat.

"..."

World Tree

After a period of waiting, they finally arrived at their destination. Wu Di looked up and saw a scene exactly like the one in his dream.

He couldn't help but feel secretly pleased, as the goal of completing the mission was just around the corner.

Nasita was also filled with excitement, because she was finally going to see the Great Tree King, and she had so many questions she wanted to ask her.

She eagerly grabbed Wu Di's hand and walked quickly toward the World Tree.

The two soon arrived at the World Tree, where they saw a familiar figure—a figure exactly like Nasita.

"Me...? Just like me...."

"You are... the Great Tree King?"

Now Nasita's doubts have grown even more. She clearly came to find the Great Tree King, so why did she see someone who looked exactly like her?

Thinking this, Nasita stepped forward, her face full of confusion and bewilderment.

"Yes, it's me. Are you surprised by my appearance?"

"um, yes."

Upon hearing the reply, the Great Tree King spoke as he walked forward.

"This place recreates the appearance of the World Tree and the earth in the past, but it is ultimately a space of consciousness."

"Because our 'essence' is the same, we also appear to have the exact same appearance."

Why are they "essentially" the same?

Faced with Nasita's doubts, the Great Tree King did not hide anything, but continued to speak in a gentle voice.

"Because I am you, and you are me."

You are my "reincarnation".

Upon hearing this, Nasita muttered the word "reincarnation" in a low voice and fell into thought. The Great Tree King opposite her continued to speak.

She stated that she, as the King of the Great Compassion Tree, is the incarnation of the World Tree, while Nasita is the purest branch broken off from the World Tree.

She also gave an analogy: even if a tree dies, its branches can one day take root and sprout, continuing life in another way.

She also stated that the person she was now in front of Wu Di and the others was merely a remnant of the Great Compassion Tree King's consciousness, and that her true self must have been dead for a long time.

She also said that, based on Nasita's current appearance, she must have been dead for almost 500 years.

"You've finally come, 'after reincarnation'."

Wu Di, who was watching from the sidelines, never expected that there was such a relationship between the two, and then noticed the Great Compassion Tree King looking at him.

When she subconsciously wanted to take off the mask, she remembered that what was here now was just a consciousness, and she couldn't bring a mask with her.

Thinking this, Wu Di returned a smile to the Great Compassion Tree King, expressing his friendliness.

And judging from the other person's appearance, it seems they know her. Is this the incarnation of the World Tree? Then she probably knows about him from the past, but she still hopes they will keep it a secret.

With that in mind, Wu Di put his index finger to his lips, making a gesture as if he wanted to keep it a secret.

Seeing Wu Di's actions, the Great Compassion Tree King smiled and nodded slightly, after all, the other party's status was far higher than his own.

And unexpectedly, this person has already returned to this world, and even accompanied Nasita, which means that the two are in a cooperative relationship, or even a friendship.

She would feel much more at ease if she made friends with this person.

"If that's the case, then... could it be that one day I could become a god as great as you?"

Upon hearing this, the Great Compassion Tree King said that although their essence is the same, their fates will definitely be different, as all things in the world have their own destiny.

Just like a branch that grows into a new tree, it can never be exactly the same as the original tree.

"So fate is the ultimate knowledge, right?"

"That's a great idea, I totally approve."

The Great Tree King approved of Nasita's idea and then continued speaking.

"And that's why you will never be me again."

Upon hearing this, Nasita felt a sense of loss. Could she not become a god as great as the Great Tree King?

"But you might become a god even greater than me, haha."

These words restored Nasita's confidence.

"..."

The two chatted briefly, and this conversation helped Nasida resolve her inner conflicts and give her the courage to look to the future.

Next, Nasita began to ask about her birth and what happened when the Great Tree King died.

Upon hearing this, the events that occurred five hundred years ago were slowly recounted by the Great Compassion Tree King.

Five hundred years ago, during the Calamity of Kerria, the other six of the Seven Rulers were summoned to fight against Kerria, while the Great Tree King went to protect the World Tree.

The Great Tree King created the "Void," a device that unified human wisdom. She integrated human wisdom and dedicated all her power to virtually eradicating all forbidden knowledge from the World Tree.

However, she discovers that she, as the embodiment of the World Tree, has also been corrupted. She realizes that eliminating her own existence is the only way to eradicate forbidden knowledge, but she cannot eliminate herself.

So she broke off the purest branch from the World Tree, which transformed into the Little Lucky Grass King Nasita (Buyer), and she herself died, leaving Nasita with a clue:

Let the world completely forget me.

"Just so you could come here, I, who was corrupted, will be completely erased from the World Tree..."

Upon hearing this, Nasita realized something, and an indescribable sadness welled up in her heart. She stepped forward and spoke in a trembling voice.

"Wait, no, this isn't right..."

"Hehe, do you understand what that means? You're really smart."

As the Great Tree King said, the World Tree contains all the knowledge and memories of this world.

If she were erased from the World Tree, it would be as if the Great Tree King had never existed in this world.
