Genshin Impact: I, the Winter Prince, reign supreme.

"Once this news gets out, the Knights of Favonius will become famous and will no longer suffer the scorn and ostracism of the Mondstadt people. The Knights of Favonius might even promote you and give you a raise. Congratulations!"

Yura said calmly, "Your Highness need not be sarcastic. Everything I have done is for Mondstadt."

"For Mondstadt? Perhaps it's just to gain the approval of the people of Mondstadt. But you will always be different from them. No matter how hard you try, you can't escape the fact that you have the blood of the Lawrence family."

"So wake up, Miss Yura. Even if you capture me today, even if you sacrifice yourself for it, the people of Mondstadt will not be grateful to you. The hatred of the Mondstadt people for the old nobles is a prejudice etched into their bones."

Yura said, "Say what you will, the winner takes all, the loser is condemned. I will not let you get away with this!"

"Is that so? Miss Yura is commendable for her courage, but she lacks sufficient understanding of human nature."

Su Yu seemed to be commenting on her performance, but in Yura's eyes, she looked completely fearless.

"Have you thought this through carefully? Once you learn about the shocking conspiracy between the Fools and the Clan, your death is not far off. When villains are driven to the brink, killing to silence witnesses is usually their only option."

"Trying to scare me? Hmph. That's all the Prince can do."

Yura spoke defiantly, but inwardly she was starting to feel nervous.

Based on the discrepancy between her assessment of Su Yu's strength during the duet and the intelligence gathered by the Knights of Favonius, she considered whether to leave the area first, contact the Knights of Favonius for reinforcements, and then wipe them all out in one fell swoop.

"One can be arrogant, but one should not be foolish."

Su Yu lost patience with her.

Yura has been brainwashed by Mondstadt people for a long time and has lost her ability to think independently.

The greatsword of Yura in front of him was frozen almost instantly.

Su Yu showed off his skills, and the greatsword's material could not withstand such extreme low temperatures, shattering into countless fragments.

"Wow...what terrifying ice elemental power!"

Yura stared in disbelief at everything that was happening before her eyes, and when she looked at Su Yu again, her gaze turned into deep fear and awe.

"The wheels of history will crush all enemies ahead, and no one can stop the great cause of the Winter Kingdom to defy the laws of nature."

"My will is as cold as ice, and my belief is as fiery as magma."

Su Yu's voice gradually lost its warmth, revealing a bone-chilling coldness.

“I can tolerate your mistakes, I can forgive your offenses against me, and even killing to silence you is just a casual remark. But fools do not deserve my sympathy, much less the slightest pity.”

"Let your blood bring this sacrificial dance to a close."

Yura was horrified to discover that she was being lifted into the air by an irresistible force.

My heart pounded violently, and I was instantly enveloped by the shadow of death.

"and many more--"

Just as Yura was in despair, someone suddenly burst in from outside the door.

Chapter 33 I will remember this grudge

"Your Highness, please wait!"

The person who entered was none other than Yura's uncle, Schubert.

He staggered and crawled to the front of the stage, pleading, "Your Highness, please spare my niece. I sent her; it's all my fault. Kill me if you want, I'm willing to take all the blame!"

Schubert was outside the door when he heard the commotion inside and discovered that Yura had actually attacked Prince Winter.

Prince Zhidong is someone their family absolutely cannot afford to offend.

"Interesting, you still consider her your niece..."

Su Yu said with great interest.

"She publicly declared that she was severing all ties with the Lawrence family. Later, she joined the Knights of Favonius to prove her determination to break away from the old aristocracy. As far as I know, over the years, she has personally sent as many as seventeen members of the Lawrence family to prison."

“Your Highness, Yura’s parents entrusted her to me before they died, and I will definitely protect her.”

"Yura is the most outstanding descendant of our Lawrence family. She is diligent, hardworking, and has her own ambitions and ideals. No matter how rebellious she is, she is always a member of our family. The Lawrence family is proud to have such a descendant."

“If Your Highness is willing to release her, I will agree to all the demands of the Fools. I am willing to give my life in exchange for my niece’s life.”

"Please, Your Highness, spare her."

Schubert kowtowed repeatedly to Su Yu, the silent hall echoing with muffled thuds.

Soon, Schubert, bleeding from his head, fainted.

But the pleas for leniency did not cease.

Other core and key members of the Lawrence family knelt down one after another, pleading for Yura.

Finally, all the members of the Lawrence family who came to the Goethe Hotel today knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

The dense, resounding sounds of people kowtowing constantly vibrated and impacted Yura's heart!

If she still doesn't understand what her people are doing, then she's truly beyond help.

For so many years, she has never greeted her clansmen when she walks down the street, and she sneers at their friendly glances and even fights with them.

At this moment, these images kept replaying in her mind, overlapping with the scene before her eyes, making her feel extremely ashamed.

As Su Yu said before, all her efforts for Mondstadt, whether it was capturing the Fatui or killing monsters in the wild, were for her own selfish reasons.

It gained the approval of the people of Mondstadt.

However, the truth is that no matter how hard she tries, the people of Mondstadt will always regard her as a remnant of the old nobility and will never accept her.

Forced to join the guerrilla squad, he spent long hours outside the city, enduring wind and rain, simply to escape the hurtful words and stares from within the city.

I'm living a truly awful life.

However, the family always regarded itself as a source of pride, and its members were willing to give their lives for it.

Thinking of this, Yura, who always presented a strong and resilient image to everyone, shed tears.

The Lawrence family is proud of her, and today she is proud to be born into the Lawrence family.

“Miss Yura, the sins committed by your ancestors have been punished, and they have been sent to the guillotine. Mondstadt should not vent its resentment towards your ancestors on you, their descendants.”

“It is not your fault that you were born into the Lawrence family. The sins committed by your ancestors, even after hundreds of years, do not need to be atoned for by generation after generation of descendants.”

"If the people of Mondstadt were tolerant, friendly, and treated your Lawrence family, your uncle, and your clansmen equally, would they be thinking about restoring the glory of the Lawrence family all day long? Aren't people always forced into things?"

"For an old noble family that has always abided by the law, neither arrogance nor bad temper should be a reason for the people of Mondstadt to be harsh and discriminatory towards you."

Su Yu's words lingered in her ears, and Yura's tears almost burst forth.

"It seems that Miss Yura has had some new feelings about today's events. I believe that you will rethink your identity in the days to come."

Identity recognition is easier said than done.

From the day Su Yu was appointed Prince of Winter, he knew clearly that he would dominate the world of Teyvat as a "villain".

Yura still needs time to digest.

Su Yu withdrew his divine power, and Yura landed back on the ground.

She glanced at Su Yu with a complex mix of emotions—confusion, gratitude, and fear—and forcefully wiped away her tears.

"I'll remember this grudge!"

Then she rushed to the unconscious Schubert and did everything she could to save her uncle.

The lady with the hidden mirror silently stepped forward and draped the prince's cloak over Su Yu.

Outside the Goethe Hotel, the storm seemed to intensify.

"Why isn't anyone saying anything? Are you all scared by me too?"

Su Yu looked at the wind and rain and asked.

A member of the Fools replied respectfully, "Yes, Your Highness, I thought you were going to kill Miss Yura just now. Because your words contained murderous intent."

The other envoys shared the same idea.

"Ladies, tell them your opinion."

The lady with the hidden mirror smiled and said, "His Highness never says a word when he wants to kill someone. The reason why His Highness danced with Miss Yura and said so much to her was to let her see the true nature of humanity."

The envoys carefully considered the reply, and finally all lowered their heads.

He felt guilty for thinking he had seen through His Highness the Prince.

"Hehe, they all call you 'Your Highness,' so you must be the prince who visited Mondstadt last winter. Greetings to Your Highness!"

At the street corner, a cat-eared loli wearing a raincoat jogged over in the storm and said kindly.

She wore a crop top, had short pink hair, a high ponytail tied on her forehead, and her emerald-green eyes shone brightly in the night.

The most interesting thing is her long tail, which sways back and forth in the strong wind.

Su Yu recognized her as Diona at a glance.

Cattail Bartender, a rising star at Mondstadt.

Seeing that Su Yu acquiesced, Diona respectfully said, "Your Highness, thank you for saving my kitten."

“Miss Diona must be very busy, she doesn’t seem to have time to keep a cat.”

On his way there, Su Yu reached out and rescued a kitten, a scene that Diona happened to witness on her way to work.

She chased all the way here just to thank him in person.

Unexpectedly, the other party turned out to be the famous Prince Zhidong.

"Ah, let me tell you a little secret, Your Highness. Actually, I've always wanted to slack off, but every night, hordes of drunkards flock to the tavern, insisting on drinking my cocktails. If Your Highness wishes to sample Mondstadt's fine wines and spirits, you might as well come to Cat's Tail Tavern to find me, but my appearance fee is quite high, you know."

"There will be a chance."

Su Yu nodded slightly.

"Then let me tell you a little secret, Miss Diona. Tomorrow, your little wish to be lazy will come true."

"Really? I can take tomorrow off? That's great!"

Diona was skeptical, but inexplicably happy.

"It's not just Cattail Tavern... the whole of Mondstadt will be 'on holiday' tomorrow."

Su Yu said meaningfully.
