Genshin Impact: Journey to Teyvat

Chapter 676 The Moment of Staying

Chapter 676 Stay at that moment

"So what does Ying think of Yaedou's light novels?" Paimon said with his hands behind his back excitedly, "Do the stories we collectively selected suit your taste?"

Ying sighed: "Compared to the content of the story, what I felt in the story was the traces of time left on Inazuma."

Ying looked towards Yaedo. There had never been a light novel bookstore in this corner before, let alone a book of completely impossible stories like this one.

After realizing that the stories told by the three people were not things that happened in real life, Ying thought about it for a long time. When she heard Paimon's question, she was a little dazed.

"General, I did my best to build an eternal kingdom. This kingdom should not change at all. But now, both the food and the stories are very different..."

Ying smiled and shook her head: "People are always looking for change. It's impossible to be completely still."

Ying raised his head: "'I don't agree with you'..." Looking at the stunned Yingying, he chuckled: "If we were still in the Pure Land, I would definitely answer like this."

But now, Inazuma has changed and is no longer the 'eternity' that Ying has always pursued. This fact is right in front of her and cannot be refuted.

Paimon nodded: "I invited you to come out and see it just to give you new ideas."

Ying nodded in agreement, and Ying added: "Although the current Inazuma is different from before, everyone loves their current life. This kind of love can't be wrong, right?"

Ying responded: "As you said, I am very cautious about all changes, but the eternity I want to pursue is definitely not to prevent humans from becoming better and better."

Ying's voice revealed a smile, as if he had figured something out and felt relieved: "Thank goodness for your invitation. I have gained a lot from this trip."

Ying and Gan Lin looked at each other and said, "No need to be so polite. We are just hanging out for fun."

Ying looked at the two of them and laughed: "Is it because you are all used to it? For me, this trip is very memorable."

In Ying's opinion, although this trip did not take her out of Inazuma Castle, but she just wandered around the city, it gave her many new ideas. Now she is no longer bound by the "eternity" of the past, but begins to think about the new "eternity".

Gan Lin took out his camera: "How about taking a photo as a souvenir?"

Paimon suddenly realized: "Oh, that's right, since Ying likes it so much, then we have to bring a souvenir!"

Bewildered, Ying rubbed his head: "Leave a picture? Why do I keep seeing words I've never heard of?"

Paimon waved his hand: "It's okay, come with us, let's go to a place with beautiful scenery, you will know later."

Ying went up the steps next to her and stopped under a cherry tree. There were not many people around, and the cherry blossoms on the ground and the falling cherry blossoms formed a pretty good view here.

Ying was pulled under the cherry tree by Ying: "So, what should we do now?"

Facing Ying who looked a little nervous, Gan Lin said with a smile: "Take a photo as a souvenir. Leave the specific operation to us. You just need to stand over there and strike the pose you want."

Paimon nodded. "To put it simply, taking a picture is to use this machine to record you at this moment in a picture. This kind of thing is very suitable as a souvenir."

Ying didn't understand: "What's with the posing?"

Gan Lin has already adjusted the parameters of the camera: "This is the scene I want to record."

After this explanation, Ying also understood a little: "In other words, I have to make a nice pose for you, right?"

The three of them nodded vigorously, and Ying coughed lightly: "It's a bit embarrassing when you think about it carefully."

For a moment, Ying couldn't think of what pose to do, and his eyes fell on Ying, who was holding the camera and blinking.

Ying: "Well...how about a more dignified pose?"

Ying thought about it, put one hand on his waist and said, "Well... let's do this."

With his back to the Narukami Taisha Shrine, there were even falling cherry blossoms where Ying was standing. Inazuma was particularly beautiful at night, and in the photo, there was the fair-skinned, beautiful and long-legged Thunder God.

The two handed the pictures they had taken to Ying. Ying, who had never seen such a thing before, was full of curiosity: "How magical. Is this some kind of magic? Inside... is there a copy of me? But she doesn't seem to move or speak."

Ying smiled and said, "This is just a record, not the real you."

Ying seemed to like these photos very much, holding them in her hands with great joy: "How did you do this?"

"Hehe, this is where it's powerful." Paimon chuckled. Before he could explain, Ying called for a stop: "I still don't quite understand the principle behind this. Please explain it in more detail."

Then Ying muttered a series of questions to himself, such as why it is not me here, why it is not me but I am exactly the same as me, and if the one in the picture is me, then who am I now?

Ying didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Artificial intelligence could be invented by Ying, but he himself couldn't understand something like a camera.

Paimon felt dizzy just listening to all the questions: "This is beyond my ability to answer. I'll leave it to you!"

Ying shook her head helplessly: "Maybe this is the difference between the general and you."

Paimon nodded, "Yeah, so what do you think of being a general?"

"Of course I have never intended to hand over Inazuma to someone else to manage." Ying answered without hesitation. Paimon tilted his head slightly: "So what are you now?"

Ying seemed to be thinking about something. Gan Lin took another photo of Ying, who was thinking with his arms folded. He shook the photo and Ying's appearance just now appeared: "This is you who 'stayed at that moment'."

After saying that, he handed the photo to Ying: "If you put it that way, I am also me, there is no doubt about that."

Ying chuckled: "Your existence does not have to be singular."

Hearing this, Ying seemed to have suddenly realized something: "I understand. I am me, there is only one, but I have countless possible forms. It doesn't really matter what form I exist in."

Gan Lin was a little confused by Ying's discussion. Ying talked about a lot of reasons and finally sighed: "Even I who pursue eternity, the form of existence is constantly changing... Then how can I ask Inazuma and everyone living in Inazuma to remain unchanged?"

"Human nature is not so easy to change." Ying couldn't help but sigh.

Ying put away the photo in his hand and said, "After walking with you all this time, what I saw was completely beyond my understanding... Alas."
