Genshin Impact: Hello! Traveler

"Um, Ying has a lot of hobbies."

Looking at the densely packed keywords recorded in the small notebook, the traveler's mouth twitched slightly.

"A lot? I think it's quite little." Ying blinked and said innocently.

"As long as you like it." The traveler, who holds the mentality of "readers are my fathers", forced a smile.

"Ying, your request can bring quite a few challenges to the travelers."

As the editor-in-chief of Yaedou, Shen Zi frowned at Ying's request.

If I really continue writing, it will either be a template novel or be abandoned halfway. Moreover, these elements are not mainstream.

If the book could really be published, it would have had some sales in the past few days.

It won't have as wide an audience as the book "How to Make Him Care About You More" written by the old woman not long ago.

After all, it is just a niche, even with the addition of celebrities.

A truly wonderful novel is only icing on the cake when recommended by a celebrity.

"Son of God, can you give me some advice?" The traveler asked curiously after turning another page.

"Of course you can, little guy." Shen Zi looked at Ying with some pride.

When it comes to this topic, I have more say than a country girl like you.

"These are some of the best-selling books in Yaedo. Take a look and see what they have in common."

The Son of God gently touched the pendant on the fox's ear: Eye of God.

A few not very thick books appeared out of thin air in the hands of the Son of God.

After taking the book from the Son of God, the traveler spent half an hour quickly reading it and then thinking about it carefully.

"Like driving?" the traveler answered uncertainly.

"..." This immediately silenced Shen Zi and Ying Gan.

"Ahem - what these books have in common is that their audiences tend to be female."

"In terms of sales volume, the ratio of male to female purchases is almost 2:8."

"That is to say, there are still quite a few male readers who haven't joined. On the other hand, the proportion of male readers in the "Swordsman" which has been on sale for a long time is quite surprising."

"So, Son of God, what you mean is..."

"The market for books targeting women is already saturated, while the market for books targeting men is far from enough."

"As a phenomenal work, The Record of the Swordsman has been released for a long time, and the demand for this type of book among male readers in the market is already obvious."

"Yaedo is in urgent need of a phenomenal novel that is not inferior to the current best-seller "How to Make Him Care More About You" and is mainly aimed at male readers."

"So, Traveler, it falls on you to restore the glory of Yae-do!"

"..." The traveler, whose eyes had been shining when listening to the Son of God's speech, fell silent as he was dumbfounded when he found that he couldn't even write a single key word at the end.

According to what Shen Zi said, weren't all Ying's previous suggestions in vain?

Seeing that the paper the traveler opened was still blank, the Son of God also understood the traveler's difficulties.

"Well, in fact, as long as the traveler is good enough, wouldn't it be better to write a novel that appeals to both men and women?"

"That makes it seem like writing a novel is a piece of cake for me." The traveler rolled his eyes at the Son of God.

"With your experience, just write some novels about fighting against Inazuma Gods and you won't lose. I guarantee it will get rave reviews."

"I just showed mercy that time." Ying retorted.

"Allah, isn't it true that novels are supposed to be innovative? In the traditional Inazuma novels of the past, Ying always played the role of the ruthless and strongest person."

"There has to be a groundbreaking novel to break people's inherent thinking. For example, the previous novel "Please Take Care of My Lord Priest" was very popular."

"There are too many novels with Shadow as the protagonist recently. How about you, Traveler, write a novel with me as the heroine and you as the hero? It will guarantee a big hit." The Son of God winked and hinted wildly at the Traveler.

"Son of God..." Ying looked at the scumbag fox with a frown on his face.

Byd's calculations hit me in the face.

"In my experience, a happy ending is not very satisfactory. An ending with regrets can better show the artistry of the novel. After all, a satisfactory life is rare in reality." The traveler pondered.

"What? How did you come up with this idea?" Shen Zi was a little surprised. After all, the mainstream of Inazuma is still those with a happy ending.

"I have traveled to many worlds. Tragedy can resonate better with readers. Even after many years, when I recall those fragments, it seems like a knife is stabbing into my heart, which is very impressive." The traveler said these words of Langmie in a calm tone.

"It sounds very creative. I hope you can write a book that can impress us." Shen Zi, who had not yet come into contact with Daozi Literature, did not realize the seriousness of the matter. He just smiled and expressed his expectation and affirmation.

"It starts out lighthearted, with battles and romance to advance the plot, plus a little foreshadowing, and ends in tragedy. Let's conceive it this way. Let's write a novella to test the waters."

"Well... the male protagonist will be a wandering swordsman in the tradition of Inazuma, and the female protagonist... uh, why are you looking at me?" The traveler who was biting the tip of the pen and writing down the outline suddenly felt two wolf-like gazes.

"Nothing, I just wanted to see you." The Son of God winked at the traveler, "selling" himself madly.

"..." Ying said nothing, his expression full of longing.

"..." The traveler knew what the two people in front of him were thinking just by thinking with his feet.

"It's just a novel, there's no need to compete. Besides, the male lead is fictional."

"Yeah," the two girls nodded at the same time but didn't listen.

Then do you think I would mistake you for the male lead?

"I give in... everyone has a share!"

"I want to be the leading lady!" they said in unison.

"Let her be the second female lead—" Ying said, pointing at Shen Zi.

"Let her be the villain—" Shen Zi said, pointing at Ying.

"I'm tired, you two play rock-paper-scissors."

"Step forward," the two agreed.

"Three, two, one, rock, paper, scissors—"

"Oh, good, I win!" Ying cheered.

"Best of three, let's go again!" The Son of God who lost was a little unwilling.

"Son of God, you are cheating!" Upon hearing this, Ying stood up angrily, with lightning flashing in his eyes.

"Hehe, I'm just applying the rules reasonably." The Son of God covered his mouth and laughed.

"You're an adult, but you're still like a child." The traveler was speechless.

"Best of three, come on!" As one of the few games that does not require a lot of brainpower to fairly compete with the cunning fox in front of him, Ying still agreed.

"Then continue. Three, two, one, rock, paper, scissors--"

"Oh, I won accidentally." Even though Shen Zi covered her face, she couldn't suppress her somewhat presumptuous smile.

"Damn it, you laughed too early. Grass will grow on your grave! Don't be so proud."

"Come again!"

“……”Looking at the dark clouded sky outside the window, the traveler couldn’t hold back any longer.

byd turned a rock-paper-scissors game into a life-and-death game.

call--

Let go of trivialities and return your mind to a pure land.

The enemy before him was the most difficult one he had ever faced in his life.

The purple eyes tried to penetrate the thoughts of the mortal enemy in front of him.

This time, there are no so-called close friends, no so-called relatives.

"Yaeguchi, you, are you going to be my enemy?" Without a trace of emotion, Ying's divine purple eyes stared at Yaeguchi, with whom he had a pleasant conversation not long ago.

"Oh, I didn't want to repeat this old script, but there's nothing I can do. The reward for winning is too tempting." The Son of God's seemingly playful tone was actually a confrontation with the other party, and he didn't give in at all.

The Son of God's attitude at this moment was more serious than ever before. He was not so serious even when he was fighting against the Shadow together with the Traveler.

What exactly made them turn against each other?

Ah, it’s rock-paper-scissors.

That's fine.

...Nothing happened! Even playing rock-paper-scissors caused such a big fuss.

"What are you doing? Hurry up if you want to win or lose. Others who don't know would think that Thor and her followers are playing a peak match." The traveler urged.

"Three, two, one, rock, scissors, paper—"

"Oh, good, I won!!" Ying jumped up happily, then saw the incredulous expressions of the Traveler and Paimon, then sat down immediately and said calmly:

"I won, I'm the heroine!"

The Son of God at the side seemed to have lost his color, muttering: I actually lost to the shadow...

"Son of God, why are you so discouraged? You also have a role to play, um... just be the second female lead."

"You can't use the same name, otherwise it will look weird. Let's do this. The heroine based on the Kage is Raiden Mei; the second female character based on the Miko is Yae Sakura. Is that okay?"

(Next door Honkai Impact 6rd Raiden Mei, Yae Sakura: )

"Of course, as long as I think I can be the heroine." Ying was a little happy. He took the tri-color dumplings on the coffee table and started to eat them with relish.

"Forget it. It's not like I can't afford to lose." Shen Zi said sourly, picked up the slightly cold fried tofu and bit it hard.

"We also need to improve the background and plot details. Today's Inazuma is not suitable as a background. Heroes emerge in troubled times. It is best to use ancient Inazuma as the background."

"Ying, as someone who experienced the Demon God War, what was the background like at that time?"

"Ah? It was just a little chaotic. I just quelled the chaos wherever there was chaos and suppressed the rebellion wherever there was rebellion. I'm not very familiar with the humanities and history of that time." After swallowing the tri-colored dumpling, Ying thought hard and answered sincerely.

The traveler was speechless, then looked at the Son of God beside him, his eyes shining...

“Son of God, you…”

"Why are you looking at me? It was difficult for me to transform 500 years ago. There wasn't any major chaos after Inazuma's transformation. It's no use asking me." The Son of God sighed, indicating that he could do nothing to help.

“Do we need to learn from Liyue’s…”

"Come on, you're going to get criticized for writing like this. There are many ancient ruins in Inazuma. You can try to find some clues."

"Oh, kid, a few days ago, my assistant told me that there is a writer named Sumida who is dedicated to writing stories based on ancient Inazuma. Maybe you can ask her for advice." (ps: She is the writer of Journey to the Sea of ​​Mist. I don't know what her favorite writing background is. I'll just treat this as my secondary creation. After all, I have forgotten a little about this task.)

"Even the history of Inazuma has to be told to ordinary people. You two are really amazing." The traveler was a little helpless.

"It's all because Ying was too introverted at that time. He naively believed that the past history would affect the eternity of Inazuma. It turns out that the records of ancient times by Inazuma's civil servants were somewhat incomplete."

"Even the record that our Inazuma's iconic triple thunder pattern originated from Liyue can only be confirmed in Liyue ancient books." The Son of God directly put the blame on Ying.

“……” Ying’s silence was deafening.

Stop scolding me, stop scolding me. If you continue to scold me, my little pearls will fall off…
