Genshin Impact is a big stage, come if you dare

Sora accepted Ayaka's invitation to the festival, and Paimon was overjoyed, "That's great! I've been wanting to go since I saw the poster!"

I wonder what delicious and fun things will be there at the Inazuma Festival~

A group of people were talking and laughing as they walked towards the festival venue, which was a small island where thunder cherry trees grew lushly.

Rows of lanterns were hung under the cherry trees, and the dim candlelight dyed the cherry trees at night into a more gentle color. There were many different stalls on both sides of the road, which dazzled Paimeng.

Paimon looked around as he flew left and right, "It's quite Inazuma style! But it doesn't seem as lively as I imagined?"

"Because today is the last day! Many tourists who live far away have gone back." An enthusiastic voice sounded, and everyone turned around and saw that it was Xiao Palace.

When everyone was greeting each other, Su Mao, who had been well behaved today, suddenly jumped out and was caught by Xiao Gong who was standing opposite Kong.

"Hey, I caught you!" Xiao Gong lifted up the black shadow that flew out from Sora, "Huh? Sora, you guys brought a cat with you when you came out to play?"

So childlike? Wow!

Sora apologized repeatedly, taking Sumao and putting it back into his backpack, and had to use one hand to hold it firmly. The accused Sumao's glowing eyes followed Xiaogong's movements.

"When she suddenly jumped out, I thought it was the giant raccoon demon in the story I told the children. I didn't expect it to be a kitten. Hahaha." Xiao Gong was not scared at all. Instead, she smiled happily. "It seems that I am very popular with cats!"

Paimon stared at Xiao Gong's hair accessories - brightly colored little goldfish and tamamari balls, ah, these are indeed elements that cats would like.

Paimon: "Xiao Gong, are you coming to the festival too? Do you want to play with us?" It's more fun when there are more people! And there can be more people to control Su Mao to prevent her from running around.

"I'm here to help the festival! With my fireworks." Xiao Gong made a "victory" gesture, smiling proudly and brightly, "There will be a grand fireworks show on the last night of the festival to end it, but the momentary fireworks carry beautiful memories that will be remembered for a lifetime!"

Xiao Gong looked up at the sky and said goodbye to everyone, "I'm going to make the final preparations. Goodbye everyone."

After running for a distance, Xiao Gong seemed to remember something, turned around and waved his hands to everyone, and reminded them loudly and energetically: "Tonight's fireworks are my masterpiece, you must watch them carefully! Especially the first firework, you must watch it carefully!"

Paimon was infected by her enthusiasm, and he cupped his hands around his mouth and responded to her loudly: "Okay, Xiaogong~ We will remember it! We will definitely watch it well!"

Paimon retracted his waving arms after Xiao Gong disappeared from view, "I feel happy every time I meet Xiao Gong!"

Sora and Ayaka both nodded in agreement.

Xiao Palace is so contagious that it makes people want to smile the moment they see it.

After bidding farewell to the Evening Palace, the group officially began their journey to the Inazuma Festival.

The first stall near the entrance to the festival is the mask stall.

There are many masks hanging on the shelves behind the stall owner, most of which are in the style of foxes, which are also the commemoration of the Baichen clan by the Inazuma people.

Paimon looked at Linghua, a local from Inazuma, and said, "I heard that we have to wear masks when participating in the Inazuma festival. Is this rule still in place now?"

Linghua answered gently: "There was such a custom in the past, and it has become a popular festival costume today. It is not absolute." Masks can be worn or not at festivals.

In order to have a better sense of immersion, Paimon of course chose to wear a mask, "Boss, do you have a mask I can wear? Oh, yes, take one of the ones the cat wears." Su likes masks very much, so he bought one for Su's cat as well.

"This... I'm sorry, kid, we don't have any styles suitable for children at the moment." The mask stall owner looked embarrassed. He had never heard of such a request before. "There are absolutely no styles suitable for cats."

Paimon was disappointed, "I'm not a child anymore! And why don't you make a smaller version?" Even the Fatui masks come in small sizes.

"I am so sorry, sir..." The boss took a closer look, "Isn't this Miss Kamisato? Are you guys here on some official business?"

A bad criminal sneaked into the festival? Nothing bad will happen, right?

Linghua quickly dispelled the stall owner's concerns, "No, I'm here to bring my friends here for a tour."

Looking at the handsome blond foreign boy and the white-haired elf, the shop owner remembered, "So you are the famous Traveler Team! I have heard of your feats, but I have never seen you in person. You are really amazing!"

The shop owner was full of admiration, and he took out two masks and gave them to them. "These two masks are for you. I hope you can have fun with them. Sorry, I don't have any small-sized masks."

Linghua offered to pay, but the uncle refused again and again, "We are common people who are often taken care of by the society. It's just a small gift and it's not worth much. Miss Kamisato, please don't be polite."

After thanking the enthusiastic mask stall owner, Sora and Ayaka put on the Inazuma Festival masks together.

Linghua laughed and helped Kong adjust the mask that covered his entire face to the side.

"This kind of mask is a whole piece, usually just worn on one side of the head. If you wear it on your face, you will have trouble breathing."

"You two are the only ones wearing masks," Paimon muttered unhappily, feeling left out, "Luckily I have Sumao to keep me company!"

The group of people continued walking forward and saw a lottery booth.

The stall was very simple, with three fortune sticks on the wooden table and a witch sitting on a chair.

"Uh...you look familiar," Paimon scratched his head and flew over to say hello, "Excuse me, are you the shrine maiden of Narukami Taisha?"

Xuan Dong Ling Qin's expression was as cold as ever, "Yes, shall we draw lots?"

Paimon: "Then...then pick one."

Without waiting for Paimon to shake the stick tube, Su Mao jumped onto the table first, stretched out his claws to scoop up a stick, and it was a lucky number seven.

Fish again, it’s a good start.

When I fished it out again, I found a festive red flower print on the tip of the stick with "Good Luck, Heaven" written on it.

This familiar "My luck is in my own hands, not in the hands of God" lottery method...

The witch looked at Su Mao and interpreted the fortune expressionlessly: "Congratulations, great luck. It means: The clouds will clear and good luck will come naturally."

Kong paid the money silently, then grabbed Su Mao and Paimon Linghua and fled from the embarrassing lottery booth at the speed of light.

After stopping, everyone looked at each other and suddenly laughed together.

Linghua looked at Su Mao and said, "She is really lively and interesting. No wonder my brother likes her so much."

Paimeng wanted to hold his forehead with his hand, "Um... Linghua, does your brother like cats very much?"

Ayaka: "Cats are naturally free and undisciplined. My brother, who loves work, has never expressed his love for cats. Also, the company's final branch has trained many ninja dogs to help with work, so I always thought my brother was a dog person."

Linghua recalled what happened that day, "I didn't expect that my brother would show such a disappointed expression after knowing that Mimi was raised by someone else." It felt like I saw an unknown side of my brother.

Thinking of the disappointment on the face of a gentle and elegant handsome man like Linghua's brother, Paimon couldn't help but mutter, "It feels like someone's sin has been added to another..."
