Along the way, Natalina, who was following Wendy, seemed very flustered, her face always flushed, and it was hard to tell what she was thinking. Wendy, on the other hand, looked around and admired the scenery, and even had the leisure to play her harp as she walked, singing little-known stories.
Following the trend, Pakistan opened quite a few treasure chests along the way. Although 70% of them had to be handed over to the Dragon Kingdom, it was enough for them. Moreover, Natalina only needed to be responsible for opening the treasure chests, and Wendy would naturally help deal with monsters and the like.
Venti's methods of dealing with monsters... left Natalina somewhat bewildered. Sometimes, she would simply see Venti spin his finger in a circle and then throw it out, and the monsters would fall to the ground. Or, Venti would gently draw his ornate bow, and even though there wasn't a single arrow on it, the monsters would still fall.
Natalina wanted to ask what had happened, but she didn't dare. Wendy, however, noticed Natalina's emotions and said, "Ask whatever you want to know." "It's just... how exactly did you kill the monsters? You didn't have any tools, yet you managed to kill them all..." Natalina said.
“You mean this? Look.” Wendy chuckled, gathering wind elemental energy in his right hand to form a visible black hole. Natalina stared at the black hole in disbelief. As she approached, she felt the surrounding wind converging towards it. “This is the secret.” Wendy clenched his fist, and the black hole vanished, the wind returning to its normal flow. Natalina was still in shock.
“Well, it’s not exactly a secret, since this thing is very selective.” Wendy pointed to the glass bead on his waist. “This thing is called the Eye of God, meaning someone who is watched by the gods. They can manipulate the surrounding elements to become their own power. That’s how Lord Diluc got his power.”
“So, I also have a chance to be watched by the gods?” Natalina’s eyes lit up. “I’m the biggest drag on Pakistan, so I’ve always wanted to do something…” Wendy shook his head and said, “It’s a pity that only the Wind God is here now. But if you have the chance, you will also be watched by other gods.”
Natalina lowered her head, her expression unreadable, but Wendy knew she was down. However, Wendy wasn't good at comforting people; in his opinion, the most comforting thing was fine wine!
As they journeyed together, Natalina and Venti interacted more and more. The introverted Natalina gradually became more cheerful and became very curious about the Teyvat continent that Venti spoke of. Even the comments following the two of them were very curious. From Venti's words, they learned that there were seven gods in Teyvat: wind, rock, water, fire, grass, lightning, and ice. Venti liked to talk about the rock god and the lightning god, and occasionally mentioned the ice god, but he never mentioned the water, wind, and grass gods.
“But I heard that the Wind God has a standard for choosing people,” Wendy said. “I heard that the Wind God likes little boys, and little boys with tragic backgrounds.”
The traveler is absolutely right!
"I...I...I'm a little boy! An orphan! That's tragic enough!"
"Me too! My family abandoned me when I was little!"
"Me! Me! Me! I've been alone since I can remember!"
"A little boy? What exactly is he like?" Natalina asked curiously.
Wendy thought for a moment and said, "Their backgrounds are all tragic. For example, among the little boys in the Wind-type Eye of God, there's one named Kaedehara Manyo, a wandering samurai. He has a good friend, who is his friend..."
After hearing Wendy's story, the comments section instantly erupted into sobs.
"What a tragic story! Waaaaah! The wind-elemental boy is truly the world's treasure!"
"Compared to Kaedehara Manyo, I feel that my background is not tragic enough."
"A fallen family, a friend who died under Thor, wandering alone, sob sob sob."
Natalina was also crying uncontrollably. Wendy scratched her head and said, "Hey, don't say that. There are still many beautiful stories, aren't there? Try to look on the bright side!"
"Wait, wasn't the story of the Liyue Yaksha mentioned earlier also a slash?" A comment suddenly appeared, but was drowned out by the other comments.
“Hey, okay, there’s a treasure chest too,” Wendy said. Natalina nodded and was about to open it when a gunshot suddenly rang out, piercing Natalina’s arm.
"This treasure chest is coveted by our Sakura Kingdom! Baka! Get away from it!" Miyamoto Jizo of the Sakura Kingdom cursed loudly, holding a Barrett rifle. Wendy frowned; his intuition told him that this weapon was dangerous. He had originally wanted to help Natalina block it, but the thing was too fast; even as the Wind God, he hadn't been able to react in time!
“No…impossible, don’t even think about it.” Clutching her wound, Natalina stood in front of the treasure chest, staring at Miyamoto Haruko. Wendy slid in front of Natalina and said, “Natalina, hurry up and open it, I’ll handle this.” “Mr. Wendy.” Natalina was taken aback, then quickly opened the treasure chest.
"Bang! Bang!" Two gunshots rang out, and blue blood flowed from Wendy's stomach and shoulder. Natalina covered her mouth, her eyes wide open. Even the comments from Japan and Pakistan were shocked.
How could his blood be blue?
"It makes sense that God's blood is not red."
"agree."
On the contrary, the people of the Dragon Kingdom were not surprised at all; they had long known that Wendy was the Wind God.
