Genshin Impact: The Glory of the Herrscher Shines on Teyvat

"Mr. Xavier, don't underestimate yourself. The fact that you can design a camera... um... a copier is enough to prove your talent. As for the subsequent optimization, I will provide funds and personnel for you to form a team to conduct subsequent research?"

"From today on, Mr. Xavier, you will be a senior researcher at the Fontaine Academy of Sciences?"

After hearing what Alicia said, Xavier was stunned by the huge surprise. Although Xavier was talented and responsible, he was not popular in the academy, so he was sent to Inazuma to serve as an engineer of the Mikage Reactor, leaving his hometown.

Xavier didn't expect to be promoted and given a raise immediately after being recalled. He felt like he was dreaming.

"Thank you... Thank you for your kindness, Lady Alicia. I will definitely design a simplified version of the camera as soon as possible. If Lady Alicia is not used to calling it that, I will change the name of the printer to camera."

While Xavier thanked Alicia excitedly, he also did her a small favor. His friend had already mentioned in a previous letter the rumor that Alicia came from another world and how she had initially approached the Academy of Sciences to ask for the camera to be built and then ended up finding it on him.

Therefore, it was a good deal for Xavier to change the name of his work to facilitate Alicia in order to win her favor. After all, no matter what, as long as the inventor's signature does not change, it doesn't matter.

After this experience of being sent abroad as an Inazuma, Xavier has grown a lot. Although he has not become flattering, he has become much more tactful in dealing with people.

And Alicia knew what Xavier was thinking, so she didn't say much. She just squinted her eyes and spoke cunningly.

"You're welcome, Mr. Xavier. This is what you deserve. In addition to the promotion, there are some other rewards. I just need a favor from you, Mr. Xavier?"

Although he didn't know what Alicia wanted to ask of him, Xavier didn't have the courage to refuse and had to agree. When Alicia saw Xavier agree, her smile became even brighter.

………………

Time returns to the present.

Xavier, who came to the conference room with Alicia, heard Alicia calling his name at the door. He briefly examined his clothes, and after making sure there was no problem, he took a deep breath, pushed open the door of the conference room, and slowly walked towards the podium amid the curious and scrutinizing eyes of the researchers.

"Hey, isn't this Xavier? Why is he back? Wasn't he assigned to Inazuma?"

"You don't know yet? He went back to Fontaine a few days ago. I heard that the dean sent someone to bring him back."

"Is this true? I remember that he always liked to do some unrealistic things before. Why did Lady Alicia call him here this time?"

"Do you remember the serial disappearance of young girls that caused a stir in Fontaine? The camera that recorded the evidence of Vashé's crime and Lady Funina's great power was invented by Xavier."

"Yes, yes, I heard about it too. Lady Alicia sent people to the Academy of Sciences a long time ago to find someone to do research on it. I didn't expect that it was invented by Xavier, a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes. Lady Alicia was so optimistic about this camera before. Could it be..."

Xavier walked to the podium with an expressionless face, but Alicia noticed at a glance that Xavier's legs were trembling rapidly with a tiny amplitude. She immediately realized that Xavier was very nervous. When she thought of Xavier pretending to be nothing had happened, she almost laughed out loud.

However, Alicia did not forget the important thing after all. After calming herself down and suppressing the corners of her mouth, she spoke to the researchers off the field.

"The first batch of products of the first phase of the Fontaine Academy of Sciences is the camera researched by Mr. Xavier?"

After saying that, Alicia took the lead in applauding, and for a moment, warm applause resounded throughout the entire meeting.

Xavier felt a warm current surge in his heart, his eyes became slightly moist, and his vanity was satisfied unprecedentedly. This was a sense of recognition he had never felt before.

Xavier turned his head and looked at Alicia. There was a sincere smile on her face, a smile of encouragement and support.

The applause gradually died down. Xavier took a deep breath, walked forward, looked at everyone, and spoke to the researchers in the audience.

"me……"

'Oh no, I forgot the words!'

Xavier's heart skipped a beat. His face, which had originally turned red with excitement, gradually turned pale, and cold sweat dripped from his forehead.

In fact, Alicia had already prepared a speech for Xavier, and Xavier only had to recite it. This was not a big problem for Xavier, and in fact he recited it easily.

Who would have thought that under such tension and excitement, his brain went blank at this moment. The harder Xavier tried to think, the harder it was for him to remember. In desperation, Xavier could only make it up on the spot, but he really had no talent for this.

"Thank you Lady Alicia for giving me this opportunity, thank you Lady Funina, thank you Fontaine Academy of Sciences, thank you..."

Xavier expressed all the thanks he could think of, and his speech not only confused the researchers in the audience, but even Alicia looked at Xavier in astonishment.

'Brother, what's wrong with you?'

Xavier also realized how speechless his words were, so he spoke lower and lower, and his toes were almost digging into the three-bedroom, one-living-room room.

Alicia also understood that Xavier had forgotten the words, so she began to smooth things over. Otherwise, if Xavier continued like this, he would deviate from his original intention.

"Ahem, Mr. Xavier seems a little too excited, so he is a little speechless now. Then let me first commend Mr. Xavier for his outstanding contribution?"

Alicia stepped forward and interrupted Xavier's speech, and attracted the attention of the researchers below the stage to herself, which made the embarrassed Xavier breathe a sigh of relief, and quietly moved behind Alicia in small steps.

"Mr. Xavier has officially become a senior researcher at the Academy of Sciences and has the right to form a scientific research team to tackle the performance improvement and mass production research of cameras. Interested researchers can join after Xavier's inspection after the meeting?"

"After a member of the research team makes a contribution, his name will appear on the product packaging as an assistant. In addition, a layer of profit after the camera is sold will be used as a team bonus and Xavier will distribute it according to his contribution?"

After Alicia finished speaking, the researchers in the audience immediately looked at Xavier with eyes that were more passionate than when they saw a stunning beauty. The current Xavier was no longer the weirdo they had rejected before, but a golden bun.

Xavier felt the burning gazes of the researchers below the stage and couldn't help shivering, revealing a smile that was uglier than crying.

However, Alicia was quite satisfied with the reaction of the researchers. This was exactly the effect she wanted, to set an example for the researchers in the audience and help Xavier speed up his research.

Alicia was not worried that everyone would flock to Xavier's team and neglect other research, because Alicia and Xavier had already set a limit on the number of people in the team, and there could only be a maximum of ten people in the team.

In addition, those who are truly capable and ambitious will not be willing to be inferior to others.
