Genshin Impact: Taking stock of the Great Merciful Tree King, Nasida cried

Chapter 172 Can you give me the soul of your old friend?

In the video.

After Stanley said goodbye to a few people, he hurried away.

Paimon looked at his leaving figure and said, "He is indeed very guilty."

Wendy: "I can't help it. Who asked him to boast so much about Jack?"

"But...watch it again, it's really interesting."

"Those who don't want to forget [the past] and abandon [the present]..."

"If he is forced to take the first step [towards the future], in what direction will he take it?"

[Amber]: Why does the bard look like he knows Stanley's past?

[Kaia]: Both of them are drunkards. They were drinking in Diluc's tavern. They may have overheard it.

【Qin】: He is...

[Diluc]: In a public place like a tavern, no secrets can be hidden.

[Barbara]: But so far there has never been a character like the God of Wind. I really hope he is as mature and steady as Mr. Zhongli.

[Wendy]: Hey!

[Zhongli]: In terms of universal rationality, a person’s mind has little to do with age, but rather with the amount of experience.

[Hutao]: So Zhongli Keqing has been through a lot.

[Xingqiu]: There should be no character in Liyue who has experienced more than Mr. Zhongli. After all, his existence is a living history of Liyue.

[Ningguang]: Speaking of history, I don’t know when Mr. Zhongli will be free to come to Qunyu Pavilion to write a history book. I have already paid the deposit to the Purity Hall.

At Wendy's suggestion, several people came to Diluc's tavern.

Diluc: "Today is a rare [gift from an angel]."

"There aren't too many people in the tavern, so I'm happy to be quiet."

With that said, the group of people found a table behind Stanley and sat down.

At this time, Stanley was very drunk and was still mumbling something.

Stanley: "Stanley...tell me, what should I do..."

Paimon: "Huh? Why is he calling his name?"

Ying: "Is there something hidden?"

Paimon guessed: "Could it be that there are other people named Stanley?"

At this time, Stanley was crying quietly and looked very sad.

"Why wasn't it me who died in the Sea of ​​Embers? Why didn't your soul stop me when I took your name for granted? Stanley!"

"If it weren't for protecting me, a newcomer, you wouldn't have died in that windless place!"

"You already have the title of great adventurer, but, just for a waste like me, you can no longer become a legend..."

[Amber]: This...what is going on? Is it true that Stanley has died in the Silent Sea?

[Kaia]: What he said just now is very clear, right? This fake Stanley took the name of the real Stanley and lived in Mondstadt.

[Qin]: But why do you do this?

[Wendy]: Maybe...it's to prevent the world from forgetting the name Stanley. After all, he died to save this fake Stanley.

[Paimon]: In other words, Stanley brags about his adventures just to make people not forget this great adventurer?

[Ying]: It looks like this.

Paimon asked in confusion: "What...what on earth is going on?"

Wendy explained: "...I think he did find the Sea of ​​Ember Silence back then. The crisis he encountered there was also real."

"It's just that the companion who went on the adventure with him is the real [Stanley the Great Adventurer]."

"The real Stanley probably died to save the [Stanley] we know."

Paimon: "Ah...then the reason why this [Stanley] is called Stanley is because he [stole] someone else's name?"

Wendy: "I'm afraid that's what happened."

"Stanley" raised his drunken head and said sadly: "Stanley... I have been afraid for so many years. I was afraid that people in Mondstadt would forget you completely, so I told your adventure stories everywhere. ..”

"I want everyone in Mondstadt to remember that Stanley arrived at the center of the Silent Sea... He is the greatest adventurer, and he is still alive!"

"Stanley can't die because I am!...Because I am...Stanley..."

"I'm sorry, Stanley...even I am old, I am old too..."

"Eh..."

Just as he was talking about sadness, the fake Stanley suddenly said: "How long do you guys want to eavesdrop on?"

Paimon: "Oops! He found out...!"

Now that they were discovered, the three of them simply stepped forward to strike up a conversation.

However, Stanley put on a cold face and said: "Let's go, don't ask anything, let me be alone for a while..."

Paimon: "But..."

Stanley: "Let's go! Don't make me say it a second time!"

At this time, Jack's voice suddenly came from behind several people.

"Knight of Honor, Wendy, and Paimon! Great, you're all here!"

"I've been looking for you everywhere! I'm here to say thank you. Thanks to you for helping me find the sword and shield, my parents agreed!"

Wendy: "Oh? Really?"

Jack: "Really! They also said they would pay someone to repair the [Brilliant Sword of Courage] and [Shield of Radiant Will] so that I can take them with me on the road."

Wendy chuckled: "That's great, Jack, are you leaving Mondstadt and starting a tour of Teyvat?"

Jack scratched his head and said, "No, I won't leave just yet. With my current ability, I'm afraid I won't be able to walk too far."

"Also, I want to hear Mr. Stanley's story again. Hehe... After all, he is the starting point of my dream."

"Stanley first...ah, he's drunk again..."

Seeing Stanley lying on the wine table, Jack had no choice but to say goodbye: "See you tomorrow, sir. When you wake up, can you tell me some stories?"

After Jack left, Wendy said: "I think Stanley likes this kid quite a bit, what do you think?"

Stanley raised his head and said vaguely: "Jack? Jack!"

Wendy: "Jack has gone back."

Stanley breathed a sigh of relief: "Really... Then, thank you for not telling my secret."

Wendy said in surprise: "Huh? Have you suddenly looked directly at reality? This is not like you before."

Stanley: "I...I didn't even dare to look at him just now. His sincerity for adventure has no impurities..."

"I'm a tired, useless liar, but that kid is still a shining new kid, so we can't destroy his dreams."

Paimon: "You can't say he's a liar, right? Because [Stanley's] adventure stories and experiences are all true."

Stanley: "Stories...experiences...heh, forget it."

"Actually, until now, my memories of adventure and Stanley... have become blurry."

"This is my biggest secret, my biggest fear..."

"Over the years, I have lived for his stories. But I can no longer remember his character and his life. Hahaha..."

"The only thing I can't forget is that he died in the windless Ember Sea. The wind can't take away his soul!"

Ying: "His life is overwhelmed by guilt...only [imaginary friends] are left..."

Wendy nodded: "Well, that's right... the real Stanley is no longer even that living friend in his memory."

"But it will always be fixed in the appearance of a scarred warrior, binding him all his life."

Stanley choked up and said: "I'm old... No matter how much I don't want to let go, I won't be able to keep many things..."

"I'm so useless! It's useless..."

"But adventurers can't die in that way...can't..."

At this time, a gentle voice called the fake Stanley's real name.

"Hans Archibald?"

The man was startled and raised his head: "How do you know...my real name..."

Wendy smiled slightly, and a breeze blew towards the man opposite. Time seemed to have returned to the windless Ember Sea again.

Fake Stanley seemed to realize something and stretched out his hand towards Wendy.

"I...I have always believed in your existence..."

Wendy stretched out her hand and said softly: "Can you give me your old friend's soul?"
