Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

Late at night, in a desert house in Aru Village.

There was complete silence all around, except for the occasional sound of the breeze and the low singing of sand caressing the ground.

In this seemingly ordinary house, Eula, who had kept her eyes closed, finally slowly opened her eyes.

Although she is in good physical condition on weekdays, there is a saying that goes, if you are hit on the head with a stick and on the back with a willow, even a god will be in trouble.

She still looks a little weak.

Eula's fair right hand quietly stretched out from the warm quilt.

The arms, as white as the first snow, exude an enchantingly delicate luster under the moonlight that enters the house through the window.

Youla frowned slightly, rubbed her forehead gently with her hands, and there was a hint of confusion in her eyes.

"Where am I...ah...my head hurts..."

Then she tried hard to recall everything that happened before she lost consciousness.

At this moment, Shao Yun, who had just been waiting beside Youla for a while, noticed that she had woken up. He turned on the light in the room and asked calmly, "Are you awake?"

Shao Yun's greeting startled the unsuspecting Eula, and her originally confused brain became much clearer in an instant.

Out of instinct, Eula tried to sit up from the bed, but the moment she exerted force, she suddenly felt that her body seemed different from usual, and there was an indescribable feeling of vacuum enveloping her whole body.

This strange feeling made Eula's heart suddenly tighten, and a bad premonition came to her mind.

She lowered her head involuntarily and looked at her body under the quilt.

You don't know until you see it. At first glance, Eula's pretty face turned red instantly, like a cooked shrimp, so red that blood almost dripped out.

Eula's beautiful big eyes were wide open at this moment. Due to excessive surprise, her voice became extremely sharp, and a high-decibel scream echoed throughout the room.

"Ah! Where are my clothes!"

Shao Yun was so frightened by the shrill scream that his whole body trembled. The sound was like a cat scratching glass.

"Wait, don't get excited, listen to my explanation!" Shao Yun shouted loudly, asking Eula to calm down, while gesticulating frantically.

"You were knocked unconscious by the bricks, and I carried you here."

"As for your clothes, Miss Candice and Miss Dixia helped you change them. Candice said that if people wear clothes that are too tight when sleeping, they will be very uncomfortable and affect the quality of their rest."

Having said that, Shao Yun paused for a moment and glanced at Youla's expression.

Seeing that she seemed to have calmed down a little, Shao Yun continued, "Besides, even if I really wanted to undress a girl, I would only want to undress Ying..."

Eula's originally relaxed expression suddenly became weird again. It was quite normal at the beginning, but why did it seem a little wrong later?

"Huh? What was the last thing you said?"

Shao Yun did not answer, but pointed to the end of the bed and said, "Your clothes are right there."

"I'm just here to look after you, as requested by Miss Candice. Originally, it was Dixia who was looking after you, but then she had to leave for something, so I took over."

Then, a hint of displeasure appeared on Shao Yun's face, and he complained unhappily.

"Do you think I am willing to take care of you? If I had the time, wouldn't it be nice to just stay in my room and sleep comfortably?"

At this moment, Eula held the quilt tightly with one hand and pulled it to her chest. With the other hand, she supported the edge of the bed, propped up her body, and finally leaned against the headboard.

As soon as she relaxed, Eula let out a painful groan.

"Oh, my head...it hurts so much!" She was seen gently rubbing her head that was hit by the brick, frowning and looking very painful.

Seeing this, Shao Yun shook his head helplessly, sighed and said, "Alas, who told you to go to the construction site?"

"He was standing next to the scaffolding without knowing what was happening. It was not surprising that he was hit by falling bricks."

After that, for the sake of Ying and Paimon, he took out a small bottle with a light green body and a liquid of unknown color inside.

Shao Yun handed the bottle to Youla and said, "Here, drink this bottle of healing medicine. I believe your head injury will heal soon."

Youla looked at the medicine bottle that Shao Yun handed over, with a hint of hesitation in her eyes, but she finally reached out and took the small green glass bottle.

She looked at the medicine liquid shaking in the bottle, took a deep breath, tilted her head back and poured the entire bottle of medicine into her mouth.

However, after drinking it, Eula couldn't help but open her mouth, sticking out her pink little tongue, and complaining with disgust: "Ugh~ What's this taste?"

"It's so bitter... I seriously suspect that you deliberately poisoned it to murder me!"

Shao Yun just smiled slightly at Youla's complaint, then brought a stool, put it beside the bed and sat down.

He looked at Eula seriously and asked softly, "Okay, now we should have a good talk, right?"

……

At this time, Eula was leaning against the head of the bed, her fair right hand tightly grasping the quilt, just covering an important part of her body, but it could not hide the charming charm emanating from her exposed slender neck and round shoulders.

She tilted her head slightly, stared at Shao Yun with her beautiful eyes, and asked, "What do you want to talk to me about?"

Seeing this, Shao Yun shrugged indifferently, muttering to himself that he was almost sick from staying in Aru Village these days! Finally, he met an acquaintance and had a chat with him.

Then he cleared his throat and said, "Then let's just chat about something, like what Mond is like now, and have you encountered anything fun and interesting recently?"

Now Shao Yun thought that Eula was also here to travel to Xumi like Lisa.

When Youla heard Shao Yun mention Mondstadt, a look of loss that was hard to conceal flashed across her originally calm face, and she forced a bitter smile at the corners of her mouth.

"Interesting things? You want to hear about how I'm being pointed at and stabbed in the back by the Mondstadt residents all day long..."

"Or am I going to get drunk every other night and pass out on the street, and then have Amber take me to her house?"

Upon hearing this, Shao Yun thought for a moment and changed the subject: "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's change the subject. Um... Does Amber know that you came to Xumi?"

As soon as she finished speaking, a trace of guilt suddenly flashed in the depths of Eula's eyes. She lowered her head slightly and her voice became low.

"Well... I'm not sure. Maybe... she should know."

Seeing that Eula didn't seem willing to talk more about Amber, Shao Yun tactfully stopped asking.

He paused for a moment, then asked tentatively, "Well... then, how are Noelle and Kelly doing lately?"

After thinking for a moment, Eula responded honestly, "As for Noelle, she follows Captain Jean around all day long."

"To be honest, I don't know much about her specific living conditions, but every time I see her, she is always full of energy and vitality, so I think she should be doing well."

Then, she paused for a moment and continued, "As for Klee, she has been taken care of by Albedo recently. I haven't had much communication or contact with her during this period."

Shao Yun listened to Youla's story and responded indifferently.

"Oh, so it seems that they are all doing pretty well..."

The topic ended just like that, and after a while, the silence was broken by Eula's sudden words.

Eula said without warning: "I finally understand why I felt such a strong sense of fear when I first saw you..."

These words made Shao Yun ask back with a puzzled look on his face: "What?"

Youla tightly grasped the quilt in front of her with both hands, lowered her head, and repeated with a slightly trembling voice: "I say, I finally understand why I was so scared when I first saw you..."

Before she finished speaking, Youla raised her head and fixed her eyes on Shao Yun. Her eyes were filled with grief and anger, and she said, "Because you will kill everyone in the Lawrence family except me in the future."

"Maybe this is what's called the sixth sense when you see someone for the first time."

When Shao Yun heard Youla bring up that old story again, he suddenly felt bored and annoyed.

He curled his lips and said unhappily: "Your relatives are a bunch of lunatics. They are immersed in the past all day long and cannot extricate themselves. They can't recognize the current reality at all!"

These words hurt the softest part of Youla's heart. She thought of the past that she couldn't bear to look back on, and she couldn't help biting her lower lip, trying hard to control her sadness.

"You have completely destroyed all my expectations and dreams. No one will care about the glory and honor that our Lawrence family once had."

"All people can remember is the tragic ending of the Lawrence family being wiped out because they once again betrayed Mondstadt and 'freedom' that night thousands of years later!"

When she said this, tears were already welling up in her eyes, but she still stubbornly refused to let them fall.

"Since that night, the reputation of the Lawrence family has been completely fixed and finalized - traitors to freedom, eternal sinners of Mond! This will never change!"

Shao Yun was also enraged at this time, and he yelled at Youla.

"So, what do you want? Do you want me to admit my mistakes? Don't even think about it! I will never regret anything I've done!"

Eula shook her head slowly. Even though she was full of disgust and aversion towards her own family, it was still the family that gave birth to her.

Moreover, it was indeed the Lawrence family who was at fault that time, kidnapping Paimon.

But even so, watching her family destroyed, she couldn't help but feel endless sorrow and pain in her heart.

"No! I don't want you to apologize to me. I just... I just can't face all of this anymore. I want to escape from it all, so I chose to leave the Knights."

Youla explained to Shao Yun her truest thoughts from the bottom of her heart.
