Menma and Hashirama, what happened in Teyvat

"Hmm... let me see." Catherine began to look through the existing task lists on the counter. "Yes, there are six tasks for you two to choose from."

"Six?"

"Yes, you two can take a look." Catherine placed six task lists in front of the two.

Menma and Hashirama leaned over to take a look and saw that there were many words written on the six task lists, but the style of these words was something they had never seen before.

"Menma, I don't understand these words." Hashirama whispered to Menma, "Menma?"

Menma did not respond to Hashirama's words, because he felt very strange at the moment...

He had only seen these words in games, and knew that they were written in Mondish. But for some reason, even though he had never specifically studied this language, he could understand at least half of the content.

Menma felt like he understood something. Then, he closed his left eye and only used the Sharingan in his right eye to look at the task list (on the way here, Menma always kept his Sharingan open to observe the surroundings to see if there were any threats that he had not discovered).

As expected, this operation made him completely understand the words on the task list:

[A group of hillbillies are setting up camp in the area about 8000 meters south of the Fruit Wine Lake Bridge. Please go and destroy them to eliminate possible threats so that it will be safe enough for me to pass through there when I run the trade route next time (the settlement reward is Mora. Posted by: Larku)]

[The store is running low on flowers. Please help me find twenty daisies and ten cecilia flowers. Remember to keep the flowers fresh (the settlement reward is 2500 Mora. Posted by: Flora)]

[My daughter needs enough wooden stakes for her recent training. Please help me find five suitable wooden stakes. It is best to use the kind used by the Hillbillies, which are strong enough (the settlement reward is 5000 Mora. Posted by: Herman)]

【…】

Seeing these words automatically translated into a language he could understand by the Sharingan under the influence of chakra, Menma immediately understood how Hashirama felt when he obtained the information contained in the cypress.

Although the rewards for these tasks are only Mora, and it seems not much, but again, although it is not much if it is put into the game, this is in reality. Thomas can live well with only 10 Mora, and they have much more money than this.

"It's okay, I can understand it with my Sharingan."

After Menma quietly replied to Hashirama, he picked up four task lists and said to Catherine, "Let's take these four tasks. Are there any precautions such as the deadline for the tasks?"

"Yes. Unless otherwise specified, this type of mission will be executed within 72 hours from the moment the adventurer accepts the mission. Adventurers need to complete the mission within this period. If they exceed the time limit and fail to report back, the mission will be considered a failure. At this time, the mission order in the adventurer's hand will be invalidated, and the adventurer will not be eligible to accept the mission again.

If a special situation occurs, such as the publisher of an accepted task canceling the task ahead of schedule, the adventurer will be notified separately and the situation will be handled according to the specific circumstances. "

Catherine explained the details of the mission to Menma and Hashirama. Menma nodded. After all, this was obviously very different from the game, and being able to get this first-hand information was a good convenience.

"Thank you very much, Miss Catherine. Then let's set off now without further delay."

Afterwards, Menma collected the four task lists, left the Adventurer's Association with Hashirama, and walked towards the city gate.

"Menma, why can you understand the words on the task list?" Hashirama couldn't help but ask after just walking a distance.

"My Sharingan can read the information contained in the text and translate it into words I can understand, just like the information you obtained from the Cangbai before." Menma explained, "Although I also don't know why, this is also a very convenient thing."

"Okay..." Hashirama sighed, "It seems that it's best for us to act together all the time. After all, without you by my side, I can't even read the words of this world."

"It's a bird's nest. But you'd better go and learn it, so that you won't be confused even if I'm not around."

"Come on, you should know how difficult it is to learn a new language..."

"Haha, I was just joking. After all, I know this is very difficult." Menma smiled, "Of course we must always act together. After all, although I understand this world, you are my only true friend in this world."

As they walked and talked, they arrived at the city gate. Lawrence and Swann, who were still guarding the gate, saw the two and thought they were leaving Mondstadt as tourists, so they said, "May the wind god protect you, you two. Welcome to Mondstadt again next time."

Hashirama gave them a strange look and said, "Aren't we leaving here?"

"Huh?" x2

Seeing that both of them looked confused, Menma took out the task list and raised it: "We are adventurers now. We are out of the city only to complete the task. We will be back after a while."

"Oh...oh." x2

"Mondstadt is indeed a good place. We will probably stay here for a while."

"As long as you two like it, the gates of Mondstadt will always be open to travelers who like this place."

"Well, thank you."

After exchanging pleasantries, the two of them walked back the way they had come, again without disturbing the pigeons on the bridge.

"About 1,520 meters to the south..." Holding the mission sheet for exterminating the Hillbillies, Menma looked at the address on it and said, "It looks like it's in front of the right. This is the mission closest to us, let's go over and take a look first."

"Listen to you."

Then, the two of them sped up and ran towards the south in a ninja-like posture.

"Ninja running" actually has its own requirements. It can reduce air resistance to a certain extent and increase running speed. However, this running method requires that you have reached a sufficient speed to be effective, and it is difficult for ordinary people to reach this speed. This is also the reason why many ordinary people try to imitate the ninja running posture, but it is useless.

However, given Menma and Hashirama's physical fitness, it would be easy for them to reach this speed.

One thousand five hundred and twenty meters seemed very long, but it actually took less than two minutes for the two of them. Soon, they saw a group of hill people setting up camp at the finish line.

"Two Hilichurl thugs with axes... The ones from Mond should be the Fire Axe Hilichurl thugs, and one Wooden Shield Hilichurl thug..." Because of the Sharingan, Menma easily figured out the situation of the Hilichurls in this area, "Hashirama, let's not use those powerful moves this time, why don't we test our current physical abilities?"

"Good idea. I also want to try it." After hearing Menma's words, Hashirama immediately looked eager to try it.

After becoming Menma and Hashirama, the most intuitive feeling they had was not how strong they had become, how much chakra they had, or how awesome their ninjutsu was, but that their physical fitness had been enhanced to a level that they could never catch up with in their previous lives. They could kill a cow with one punch, break a wall with one kick, and other things that they thought were only possible for full-level humans in their previous lives, but now they could do them effortlessly.

Without any signal, the two men looked at each other and saw the agreement in each other's eyes, then jumped out of the bushes where they were hiding and rushed towards the group of Hill people at lightning speed.

"Ya!"

The closest archer hillbilly was the first to notice the two and immediately cried out in surprise. But before it could make any move, Menma grabbed its neck and then used a kunai to send it back to the earth vein.

However, its cry still attracted the attention of other hillbillies, and they all looked over here.

Menma didn't seem to panic. Instead, he shook his wrist and said to Hashirama, "Let's see who can kill faster?"

"No problem!" Hashirama rubbed his hands together and looked at the hillbillies with full fighting spirit.

"on!"
