Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

Clorinde was stunned when she heard Shao Yun's answer. Why was this different from some of the scripts of the "Table Theater"?

However, Clorinde was not flustered.

She calmed herself down and quickly searched her mind and recalled some of the plots she had read before.

After some thought, she realized that Shao Yun might have misunderstood her original intention of becoming his apprentice, thinking that she was just pursuing the illusory "fame".

Thinking of this, Clorinde took a deep breath to calm herself down, and then explained to Shao Yun in an extremely sincere tone: "Please believe me, I am not asking you to teach me the gun method for the so-called honor."

Then, she frowned slightly and continued, "The marksmanship that guy showed was too powerful. If we let him continue like this."

"I'm afraid that he will not only cause serious harm to the innocent people of Fontaine, but may even directly attack Lady Funina..."

"So, I desperately hope to have enough strength to compete with him, even if I can only perish together with him in the end!"

After listening to what Clorinde said, Shao Yun also understood the impact that the two failed duels had on Clorinde's worldview.

The first time was okay, after all, I had just given her some guidance and the impact wasn’t that big.

But the disguise of herself as "Dutch van der Linde" a few days ago really gave Clorinde some strength.

One gunshot, three bullets, instantly wounded and disabled her and Xia Volei.

Faced with such horrific shooting skills, Clorinde must be anxious, right?

But, again, why should I teach you?

So, Shao Yun, with his back to Clorinde, asked, "Want to improve your strength?"

Hearing Shao Yun's words, hope suddenly ignited in Clorinde's heart.

She nodded hurriedly, not caring whether Shao Yun could see it or not, and responded eagerly: "Yes, I really want to improve my strength!"

Shao Yun raised his hand slightly and touched his chin.

After thinking for a moment, he slowly turned his head, his eyes fell on Clorinde's face who was kneeling on the ground, and then unexpectedly gave a very funny suggestion.

"It's easy to improve your marksmanship. All you have to do is wear pants from now on!"

Upon hearing this, Clorinde lowered her head in surprise, examining her own snow-white, slender thighs, and involuntarily repeated the incredible suggestion that Shao Yun had just made.

"Wear...pants?"

Seeing this, Paimon, who was standing nearby, put his mouth close to Ying's ear and lowered his voice to complain quietly.

"What does wearing pants have to do with improving your marksmanship? It's ridiculous advice!"

However, before he finished his words, Paimeng suddenly had an idea, and the "Gunner Girl Suit" that Shao Yun had bought for Ying before appeared in his mind.

"Oh, wait, I remember now. The clothes Shao Yun bought for you were paired with pants. So, it seems that this suggestion is not completely unreasonable, right?"

Seeing that Paimeng was also confused by Shao Yun's words, Ying reminded him, "Paimeng, Shao Yun bought that dress for me because it was inconvenient for me to ride a horse in a skirt."

"And the gun skills were taught to me by Shao Yun during the Southern Cross Fighting Competition! What does it have to do with pants?"

Shao Yun had said everything he needed to say at this point. Regardless of whether Clorinde believed the joke or not, he didn't want to stay here anymore.

"Well, visiting hours are over. Let's go and give Clorinde some space to recuperate."

Seeing that Shao Yun was about to leave, Clorinde, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly stretched out her hand and tried to grab the corner of Shao Yun's clothes tightly.

"Please, can you teach me how to shoot?"

Perhaps because she was too anxious, her movements were too big, and the wound on her shoulder, which had been bandaged well, instantly broke open. Bright red blood quickly seeped out, dyeing the white bandage red.

Clorinde moaned softly in pain, but her hand ultimately failed to successfully grasp Shao Yun.

Shao Yun pretended not to notice what was happening behind him, and without looking back, he pulled Ying and Paimeng out of the bedroom.

Navia noticed that the wound on Clorinde's shoulder had split open again, so she hurried forward to support her and said with concern: "Claurinde, your wound has split open again! Go back to bed first."

As she spoke, she was about to help Clorinde up.

Clorinde watched Shao Yun leave, her eyes filled with deep loss and frustration.

Is it because I am not sincere? But I have already knelt down!

However, just when Shao Yun, Ying and Paimeng had just taken two or three steps out of the room, he suddenly turned back.

At this moment, Clorinde, who had just barely stood up with the help of Navia, felt a glimmer of hope in her heart when she saw Shao Yun coming back.

She looked at Shao Yun expectantly, her voice trembling with excitement as she asked, "Have you...have you changed your mind? Are you willing to accept me as your disciple?"

Shao Yun tried his best to avoid moving his eyes downwards towards Clorinde's body.

He tried to calm his confused mind, then said, "No...it's not like that."

Then Shao Yun took out a yarrow and placed it next to Clorinde's bedside table.

"Crush it and drink it with water to help you recover faster."

As he spoke, Shao Yun pointed to the bandage on Clorinde's right shoulder that was slowly oozing blood.

In fact, Shao Yun originally planned to give Clorinde a bottle of powerful magical supplement.

But he didn't expect that Clorinde would suddenly and inexplicably kneel down to become her disciple, which made him upset.

Now, even the ordinary healing medicine is gone. You, Clorinde, can slowly soak a piece of yarrow in water and drink it.

Clorinde stared at the herb with her beautiful eyes, a look of confusion and expectation on her face.

"I understand. After my injury is healed, can we talk about you taking me as your apprentice?"

Hearing this, Shao Yun couldn't help but feel helpless.

He really didn't expect that this woman who looked so cold on the outside could be so simple at heart.

"Your imagination is comparable to Klee's..." Shao Yun couldn't help but make such a comment.

When Paimon heard this, he immediately covered his mouth with his hands, but he still couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Um... Sorry, I shouldn't laugh. But this metaphor... Really..."

Seeing this, Shao Yun just shook his head lightly, then took Ying's hand, and motioned Paimeng to follow, and walked out of the bedroom again.

As he walked, he said, "Let's go to the living room first."

However, just as he was about to walk out of the room, Clorinde's slightly anxious voice came from behind him again.

"Wait! Let's talk again after I recover from my injury, okay?"

Shao Yun staggered and almost fell to the ground.

After steadying himself, he quickly quickened his pace and left the bedroom in a hurry without looking back.

Navia, who stayed in the room, saw that Clorinde still refused to give up, so she helped her to the bed and changed the subject.

"Well, Clorinde, don't worry about improving your strength yet. Wait until you are fully recovered. The most important thing for you now is to rest and recuperate!"

Clorinde, who was lying on the bed, turned her head slightly and looked at Navia standing beside the bed. She asked with a bit of despair: "Navia, can you help me?"

Navia naturally understood what Clorinde wanted her to help with, but this matter made her feel very embarrassed.

She bit her lip lightly, hesitated for a moment and said, "I'd like to persuade Shao Yun to teach you how to shoot... I think the chances of success are probably not very high."

"Although I know him, our friendship is not that deep..."

Although Navia has a good relationship with Ying, it does not mean that she has an equally good relationship with Shao Yun.

Navia couldn't persuade her father to persuade Shao Yun to teach Clorinde. This idea would easily arouse her father's disgust.

Moreover, even if Navia really persuaded Ying to agree to let her persuade Shao Yun to teach Clorinde, this approach would be extremely inappropriate.

What if Shao Yun and Ying quarreled because of this incident, wouldn’t I become a sinner?

Thinking of this, Navia didn't dare to think further and quickly changed the subject.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this for now."

As Navia spoke, she reached into the small bag at her waist and began to search.

Soon, she pulled out a small sword that looked quite old and handed it to Clorinde.

"By the way, Clorinde, I'm returning this knife to you. Remember? You left it behind three years ago."

When Clorinde saw this familiar little sword, she was slightly startled. Her eyes first flashed a hint of surprise, and then became very complicated. She spoke softly.

"Oh, I didn't expect you still kept it. To be honest, I thought you would throw it away."

When Navia heard Clorinde's words, she smiled bitterly, shook her head slightly, and responded helplessly.

"How could I possibly lose it? Although our relationship has been a little complicated over the past three years, it's far from the point of breaking off our friendship!"

Navia wanted to return this precious little sword to Clorinde.

However, Clorinde stretched out her left hand and stopped Navia's movements.

"No need for that. Just think of this sword as a self-defense weapon I give you. I hope it can protect you at the critical moment."

After saying that, she looked at Navia with a rare smile.

Then, Clorinde suddenly remembered something very important and said, "By the way, after my injury is healed, I want to go to Mr. Carres's grave and pay him a proper tribute."

"After all...he is also an elder whom I respect very much."

Navia nodded without hesitation when she heard this: "Of course no problem!"

"In fact, I'm planning to take Shao Yun and the others to Baisong Town for vacation. In that case, why don't you come with us?"

Clorinde quickly agreed.

"Ok, no problem!"

Then, Clorinde thought that Navia was trying to create an opportunity for her to get in touch with Shao Yunduo, and thanked her mistakenly: "Thank you for helping me create an opportunity to get along with Mr. Shao Yun."

"I'll take this opportunity and make him promise to teach me how to shoot."

Navia had never expected that Clorinde would have such an outrageous misunderstanding.

She responded in a panic: "Ah? This...ah, no...you're welcome...but..."

At this moment, Navia was secretly complaining in her heart.

Navia thought to herself, I just wanted to invite you to go on vacation to relax, and I never thought of creating an opportunity for you to contact Shao Yun!

Clorinde, please don't have any other feelings towards Shao Yun, otherwise I won't be able to explain it!

However, Navia was just overthinking it. Clorinde really just wanted to learn from her.

After all, the psychological shadow that "Dutch van der Linde" brought to her was no less than the psychological shadow that Eula had on Shao Yun...
