Menma and Hashirama, what happened in Teyvat

In the end, Menma and Hashirama found a small inn called "Ryuukaze Embrace" and booked a double room there as their temporary residence in Mond.

The room was very cheap, perhaps because it was just a small hotel with low configuration, and it was completely incomparable to places like the Goethe Hotel. However, as ninjas who had fully adapted to their current identities, the two of them didn't care about all this. It was enough to have an environment and a bed to sleep on.

In addition, since the actual price of goods in stores in this world is mostly only one-tenth of that in the game, and the two found out through calculations and evaluations that the purchasing power of Mora is about ten to one compared to the currency they used in their previous life, the Teyvat fried egg that costs two hundred Mora in the game is only sold for twenty Mora here, which is about two dollars.

[Embrace the Wind] The rent for a double room is 800 Mora per night, which is already very cheap.

"By the way, Menma, I remember the two gatekeepers, the Knights of Favonius, mentioned something about the Wind Dragon. I also heard a few people discussing this topic when we were booking a room just now." Hashirama, who was fiddling with his backpack beside his bed, said, "I don't think you have explained this to me in detail yet."

"This is part of the main storyline." Menma shrugged, not intending to explain the matter now. "The protagonist hasn't arrived yet, so there's no point in me explaining it now."

"main character?"

"That's right, the original protagonist of this world, and also the witness and recorder of everything." Menma's eyes were deep, but no one could see his expression through the mask.

"No, you've confused me. What do you mean?"

"The Traveler is the most basic character used by players in the game, and is naturally the protagonist of this world. Of course, this is only true before we come to this world."

"what?"

"However, due to the characteristics of the game itself and the theory of the possible existence of parallel worlds, I am not sure who the traveler in this world will be."

"No way, you can get a free character from the beginning of the game, how could you not know who it is?"

Menma was a little speechless: "The difference between an independent male image and a female image, can you understand what I mean by this?"

"Okay, I understand..."

Hashirama had played many web games and online games before, and this form of character selection is a normal setting in many games.

"In the game, the male and female characters are siblings. Depending on the player's initial choice, the male and female characters will have completely opposite destinies and stories. But in this real Teyvat, there is no one to play the role of 'player'..."

"So, what you mean is that this will cause many things related to them to become unpredictable before they officially meet the protagonist?"

"That's not the case. After all, no matter which character is chosen as the protagonist, the main storyline is basically the same. At most, there will be a few insignificant differences in the plot related to gender and identity." Menma leaned against the wall while analyzing, "However, at least in terms of the identity of the traveler, it is indeed what you said."

"All right……"

After talking about travelers for a while, Hashirama brought up the "business" Menma had just mentioned:

"So... let's start now?"

"Well, let's get started."

"Where do you want to be transplanted?" Hashirama said after taking out a kunai, and began to remove the armor on his arm. "I remember that if my cells were transplanted, even if it was successful, it seemed that a piece of my face would be left at the transplant location. I think you don't want to become like this, right?"

"I can't help it. Although it is indeed strange to leave another person's face on your body, even if it is yours..." Menma was very helpless, "However, in order to be able to use my Sharingan properly, I can only bear it."

"Then shall I begin?" As he said that, Hashirama rolled up his sleeves and brought the kunai in his other hand close to his arm.

"Well, please...wait!"

Just as Menma nodded in agreement and Hashirama was about to cut off some flesh from his arm, Menma suddenly sensed something and grabbed Hashirama's hand holding the kunai, forcing him to stop.

"What... eh?"

Just as Hashirama was about to ask, he saw a flash of red light in Manma's right eye, and then... his consciousness was brought into a spiritual space created by illusion.

"What's going on?" Hashirama asked hurriedly, knowing that Menma was casting an illusion on him.

"I almost forgot about someone." Menma's consciousness said across from Hashirama's consciousness, "I just sensed her presence around here."

"Who?"

"The man who was spying on us from a distance when we were having lunch at the Deer Hunter Restaurant today."

"It seems...you seem to know her?"

"Of course. She's one of the characters in the game's card pool. There's no way I don't know her."

"Well, now that I understand what you've said, I know what's going on. Do you want to solve this problem?"

"Of course, we can't reveal too much of our intelligence in meaningless places. Besides, I don't like the feeling of being spied on and monitored."

"Well, I don't like it either. Then, I'll leave it to you. I'll help if necessary."

"No need. With her strength, it's not worth it for both of us to attack her together."

After saying this last sentence, Menma lifted the illusion, and the consciousness of both of them returned to normal. Since this was a spiritual communication in the illusion space, it only took a moment to the outside world, and was not noticed by anyone except the two of them.

Hashirama sat on the bed holding a kunai, staring out through the only window in the room. Menma quietly opened the door and sneaked away using the ninja's superb stealth ability.

……

……

……

【Why is there no movement? 】

Near [Flowing Wind Embraces Each Other], the figure who had been sticking to the side of the two people's room and eavesdropping from the corner couldn't help but feel confused when he realized that he could no longer hear any sound from the room.

But at this moment, a sound of breaking air suddenly appeared behind her. After hearing the noise, she realized what happened and quickly dodged to the side. At the same time, a kunai flew over at an extremely fast speed, almost brushing her face and nailing it to the wall.

【What……】

Before the man had time to be surprised, Menma's figure slowly emerged from the shadows nearby.

"Have you heard enough?"

Seeing Menma standing not far away, the man was quite shocked, and even his always indifferent face could not help but change a little:

"How did you find me?"

"Heh..." Menma sneered disdainfully, "We discovered you at noon today. Do you really think you have great hiding skills? In our opinion, your level is not even as good as that of a child in his early teens."

"Damn it..." The man gritted his teeth in anger and no longer hid his feelings. He asked in a questioning tone, "Who are you two? What is your purpose in coming to Mondstadt?"

"Oh? Is this how Mond treats guests?" Although only a few people knew that Mond would do this, Menma couldn't suppress his anger and disgust. "We are just guests who come here to travel and stay temporarily. No matter who you are, you treat guests with this attitude?"

"Humph, do you think you can fool me with such a clumsy lie? I don't believe that people like you are just here for tourism." The man snorted coldly and stretched out his hand. A spear suddenly appeared in her hand. "Since you refuse to say it, I can only use some rough methods to pry open your mouth."

"You are overestimating yourself." Seeing the other party's bad attitude, Menma was completely furious. "Next, you, the West Wind Church, better prepare to make amends and apologize to us."

"Huh?" The man was obviously stunned when he told him the faction he belonged to. But when he thought that his clothes might have exposed his origins, he showed his cold side again, "Even if you know, so what? As long as we catch you, you can't hide your purpose any more."

"How ridiculous." Menma shook his head. "The idea of ​​treating any outsider as a threat is really chilling. You are worthy of being the owner of the Ice God's Eye...

Miss Rosalia."
