[Genshin] Diary of Tivat Demon God
Chapter 52 Wear and tear
After the three-day Narugami Festival ended, we also left Inazuma. With the strength of me and Guizhong, we left Inazuma's current enchantment very smoothly.
As for the fact that the Yuanlu Yu clan of Haizhi Island was attacked by an unknown demon god not long ago, he was seriously injured and had to sleep to recuperate, which caused chaos on Haizhi Island... I said, huh?What does this have to do with me who has already left.I do not know anything.
The ship went all the way north, and after several days of sailing, it arrived at the port of Liyue.
Before docking, I saw the father and son waiting on the pier.Like many ordinary people, I am looking forward to it.
As soon as I landed, I ran down the ladder set up.
"Zhongli!" I threw myself into his arms without stopping, wrapped my arms around his neck, buried my face in his neck and stopped talking.It wasn't long before they parted, and they could still convey their hearts through the contract and the phoenix core that connected each other every day.But after all, there is no closeness to each other, and the intimacy of talking to each other.
Morax put one hand around his partner's waist, and smoothed his hair with the other hand.He looked at Gui Zhong and Ruo Tuo who came down from behind, nodded, and said with a smile: "It seems that there is no problem."
Qixing temporarily evacuated the dock workers on the grounds that there were important commodities from abroad.Not far away was the guard of the Qianyan Army, so it didn't happen that everyone's identities were recognized and caused a commotion.
"Let's talk about the process back to Yuehai Pavilion. After three days on the boat, I feel like my bones are going to rust." After all, he hammered his shoulder and said. "There are also Daozu specialties brought back by Zhenhe Yingtuo, and we will share them with everyone later."
"By the way, special products." I looked up suddenly. "Zhong Xiao, Liyue's drink has a lot of aftertaste, so it's not suitable for you. When I came back this time, Ying introduced me to a sake made by Inazuma. Even if you drink too much of this, you shouldn’t be too drunk.”
"...I won't get drunk again, mother." As long as he recalled what he did after he was drunk, Chuya's face turned red. "In the past few days since my mother left, I...my martial arts skills have not slackened. I study hard every day..."
While talking, the boy looked at me with bright eyes, full of expectation like a puppy.
'Praise me? '
I couldn't help laughing, and raised my hand to stroke his head.The brightly colored Chufa felt unusually soft, and the little head under his hand subconsciously rubbed against the palm of my hand.
"Well done, Zhong Xiao."
So it is very easy to understand that the young demon god is very happy, "En!"
Not only because he was praised, but also——mother didn't deny his title!
Ruo Tuo put his hands in his sleeves and walked past the family of three. "Let's go...Really, I haven't been away from Liyue for a long time. I spent more time traveling before. But I was infected with Chongxiao after all..."
I became nostalgic, and when I was still at sea, I looked forward to the moment when I returned home.
In the lounge of Yuehai Pavilion.
Gan Yu brought tea and snacks, with a smile on his face: "Dijun and Zhong Xiao are looking forward to your return every day, Mr. Chongxiao. And Mrs. Heulia, every time during lunch break, they will read the end grown ups."
Heulia held Gui Mo's hand, and smiled shyly when she heard the words: "I've been with Gui Mo the longest...and I'm not used to being separated suddenly for so many days."
Morax was calm and composed. It was only natural to miss his lover, so he was extremely calm.On the other hand, Zhongye, who did not expect Gan Yu to notice his usual behavior, his ears were red was embarrassed, but he did not deny it, because the fact was that he did miss his mother and hoped that she would come back soon.
Ruo Tuo paused slightly for the hand holding the teacup, he looked at Gan Yu, and asked with a little expectation in his eyes: "What about me?"
Gan Yu thought for a moment. "...Well, Lord Mark Hughes, it seems that I have read your name - I think I am looking forward to your return, Lord Ruo Tuo."
— No, Mark Hughes definitely wants me to try it for him.Ruo Tuo took a sip of the tea, the slightly bitter taste slid over the tip of his tongue, and then returned to the sweetness.
Forget it, I always miss him.After drinking tea, Ruo Tuo stood up. "I'll go to the layer rock giant abyss to check the time. The mining of ore has already penetrated deep into the leylines--I have to see if I can adjust it. Don't say anything else, if the leylines become disordered, the first One of those affected is the mining workers."
After speaking, he left.
"Then let me tell you about what happened in Daozu." I told Moraxe what happened after we arrived in Daozu. Something was forgotten.While the memory was still clear, he breathed a sigh of relief after saying it all. "That's all, remember it?"
I looked at him expectantly.
"Maybe Chong Xiao really doesn't have much talent for storytelling. ' Morax thought to himself, and nodded.The tone was gentle, "I remember everything, I will tell you tonight, can you write it?"
I complied, and listened to him talk about the funny and boring things that happened to him after we left.
While listening, another memory was replaying in my mind.The shadow of another world, the disaster of another world.These, I am going to tell Zhongli quietly - I don't want too many people to know about the story about the seven gods destroying a country.
In the other corner, after all, he was biting a snack, and there was already a stack of documents in front of him.Not many, it was something Qixing couldn't make up his mind about.With a snack in one hand and a Langhao pen in the other, she sketched casually for a moment—the snack was finished, and the documents were processed. "Gan Yu, please send these to the corresponding Seven Stars."
"Yes, thank you for your hard work, in the end, my lord." Gan Yu picked up the document and said sincerely.
After all, he laughed: "It's not bad. Compared with Gao's scary jobs a few years ago, there are very few now. Presumably in a few years, all things can be handled by Seven Stars—people's things, after all, have to be dealt with." It’s not bad for people to handle it.”
Compared with many years ago, many jobs had to be done by immortals and gods together. Now Liyue is flourishing and has a tendency to become the trading center of the whole continent.
At the same time of rapid development, all kinds of talents have sprung up like mushrooms after rain.Mark Hughes was in charge of agricultural crops more than ten years ago, and now he has completely retired to engage in his favorite food.
Heulia also withdrew from the Salt Bureau, leaving only the one-foot-one lamp with her authority as a souvenir.But True Monarch Liuyun Borrowing Wind and the others have long since retired to the Absolute Cloud, never to be born again.
Even the immortal Yasha, who is always active on the land of Liyue, has little contact with people, and only walks silently on the road of eliminating evil spirits and fighting the remnants of demon gods.
The current Liyue belongs to humans.It's like watching a carefully cared-for child walk step by step, gradually grow up, and finally think about letting go completely.
It was the same thinking as the one who had set up the Four Commandments in Guiliyuan.Human beings must always learn to face each other by themselves and work hard with their own strength.
But she also understands that this is not the best time.Therefore, the annual invitation to Xiandianyi will continue.Until, she, Morax, Chong Xiao, Mark Hughes, Heulia, Ruo Da, the immortals, Yashas—all thought that Liyue could move forward steadily even without the existence of gods and immortals. ...
The matter with Dao's wife has come to an end for the time being.
When night fell, everyone in Yuehai Pavilion also got off work.To celebrate our return, Heulia ordered a table of dishes at Xinyuexuan for a dust-cleaning banquet.
During the banquet, there was a strange boy.
"Don't look at me with unfamiliar eyes—you don't recognize me just because of a change of appearance?" The boy with soft light brown hair has a pair of round black eyes, and holds a small baby in his arms. Mark Hughes.
The breaths of the two of them were mixed together, and I couldn't tell them apart at the moment.Hearing his familiar tone, I immediately began to recall where I had seen such a little devil. "Sorry, I just forgot for a while—I'll remember right away."
I really couldn't remember, so I just looked at Mark Hughes: "Are you a friend of Mark Hughes?"
Heulia had already pulled Gui Mo into the seat, and whispered something in her ear, and finally understood, and looked at the boy in surprise.
"..." The boy handed me the little Mark Hughes in his arms, and I hugged it subconsciously. "Lulu~" Mark Hughes in his arms raised his furry face and said to me like this.
I:?
Why did you suddenly stop talking?What does lulu mean?Our real races are different, I don't understand... I think I must be full of question marks now, because I saw that strange boy started to laugh.
At this time, Morax hugged Mark Hughes from my arms: "Chong Xiao, he is Mark Hughes." He hugged Mark Hughes, but looked at the boy.
The tea that Zhong Ye drank was spurted out in one gulp, he raised his hand to wipe it, and raised his head in surprise: "Really?"
"Hahahaha, it really was Morax who recognized me first." The young man laughed. At this moment, I finally caught the familiarity - his voice was very similar to the voice of Mark Hughes I knew, and some of them The difference is probably the difference between the human body and the ontology.
I looked at Ji Mo, and I didn't miss the blank look in Ji Mo's eyes when he saw him when he came in. "Then why don't you know your human appearance, Mark Hughes?"
After all, he raised his eyes innocently: "Actually, this is the first time I've seen Mark Hughes like this. It was Heulia who told me about him."
Mark Hughes smiled, which was the same as before. "Sit down, sit down and talk slowly, this matter has something to do with everyone."
"By the way, give me that child, really—it has almost no intelligence, Morax, don't be so stingy."
The little Mark Hughes in Morax's arms moved his hands, and grinned twice. Even on his furry face, he could see his optimism and doubts about what happened.
He gave it to Mark Hughes.
"Just need to judge." Morax said honestly. "No need to think about it."
The young Mark Hughes nodded casually with a clear expression on his face: "Yeah, you're right."
Then he raised his chopsticks and spoke with a bright smile. "Okay, let's eat before talking about things. Only when you are full and full will you be in a good mood!"
In case he couldn't eat it after he said it, wouldn't it be a waste of a table of good food?
Mark Hughes thought in his heart and felt that he was very smart.
**
"Actually, what I want to say is that I only learned about wear and tear not long ago." Seeing that everyone had almost eaten, Zhong Xiao was also downed by a glass of wine, lay down and fell asleep.
Mark Hughes also put down his chopsticks and said in a brisk tone as much as possible. "It's probably because I'm the weakest, and the God of Wind reminded me when he left. Instead, I was the first Demon God to notice the existence of wear and tear."
"Maybe it's not just me, but also Ruo Tuo." The mentioned Dragon King said that the matter on the rock giant abyss has not been dealt with, and he did not attend the dust-cleaning feast.Mark Hughes looked at us and stopped unconsciously, looked at him and continued. "It was probably the time when the rock giant abyss began to be mined. Didn't you notice that Ruo Tuo's mood became a little moody?"
I recalled a bit, the rock abyss... I remember it started ten years ago. At that time, Ruo Tuo didn't seem to like to come to the party very much.But his emotions... I didn't pay attention to this aspect.
Morax obviously couldn't think of it either: "I remember, he was no different than usual during that time."
After all, he and Heulia looked at each other, and they didn't have any memories of each other.
I do remember one thing. "I remember that during that time, Ruo Tuo helped clean up a lot of monsters in the mountains. But earlier, he didn't do these things... he prefers to travel around other countries like an ordinary person. This matter is still in the middle of the country He told me that at the time he only participated because he thought he had nothing to do. Thinking about it now...is it because of wear and tear?"
"Yes, that's the one." Mark Hughes nodded affirmatively. "The wear and tear was also imposed on Ruo Tuo, and he lived in the ley line before. The mining of the layered rock giant abyss caused fluctuations in the flow of the underground ley line, which in turn affected him and magnified the impact of the wear and tear on him."
"Memories will be confused, or even lost. The faces of friends will appear blurred, and the things that happened in the past will no longer be remembered. The past memories will gradually fade away and fade away under the scouring of time, until even the original heart is lost. ...this is, wear and tear."
"It's an inescapable injury that time inflicts on our souls."
I can understand what he said, but the answer I got after putting everything together made my eyes widen in amazement. "What is that... I've never heard of it..."
I don't remember anything, so there is nothing?
At that time, will I still be me?
And... Forget Zhongli, Forget Jiahe, Forget every friend I have known since Nirvana - I can't imagine what kind of scene that is.
It was only subconsciously grabbing Zhongli's hand, and from the strength of his grip, he felt a little real.
"Oh, don't be afraid, Chong Xiao." Mark Hughes looked at me, "Wearing is very slow, even if it is me, it will take a thousand years to see the effect. Ruo Tuo happened to hit a leyline and was affected. Only then will it show some—but hasn’t he already moved out of the leylines before?”
"And now that we have discovered the wear and tear of time on us, we will naturally find a corresponding way to resist the wear and tear." Mark Hughes raised the little thing exactly like his real body again.
"My method is to disperse my power and turn it into such a doll-like creature—most of the power is turned into this shape, and I sealed it into the amber."
"The rest of intelligence exists in this body—strength and intelligence are important parts of my existence. Power is sealed, and it will hardly pass away, and intelligence...I found that as long as Liyue's The people still use stoves to cook, as long as I still love food and everyone who smiles happily because of food, my intelligence will not disappear.”
"However, it will take thousands of years to observe and verify whether this method is effective."
"The impact of wear and tear on us is also what the God of Wind said to me... To be honest, I only have a vague feeling now. If he hadn't reminded me, I would have thought it was an illusion that took too long. "
Morax pondered slightly: "Barbatos... how did he know? Could it be because he let go of his responsibilities too early, so..."
The final look became serious: "It's very possible."
Instead, I remembered the dream he told me about... Did I also know about wear and tear in the dream?
On the topic of wear and tear, in the end, not much was said.After all, Mark Hughes doesn't know much, and the move to divide the power is also out of an experimental mentality.Liyue is now peaceful, and the remnants of demon gods at night are also suppressed by Yashas, so he doesn't feel anything when his power is gone.
It also happens to be done to colleagues to see the effect.
Go back to the cave in Absolute Cloud.I sat quietly in the room, and after a while, Morax, who had placed Zhong Xiao, came back.
"Don't worry." Morax sat beside me, and said softly, holding my hand. "Don't worry...Your memory is bad, it has nothing to do with wear and tear."
I tucked myself into his arms, not surprised he saw it.
I don't have a very good memory...in the old days, I mean, before I died and came back to life.I remember the initial establishment of Changzhou, I remember how I was when I was just born, and I also remember how I was deceived by Jia Luo and took away the Phoenix Core.
But after being resurrected, I no longer remember the scene when I was born again.All I know is that Zhongli was the first to find me, and took me away as promised.
I remember Jiahe, I remember my concern for her and my feelings for her.But I don't remember what it was like when I met her for the first time, and I can't remember what the first sentence she said to me was.
I said that my memory is not very good and I will forget.
However, for us demon gods, our memories may not be clear, but we will not completely forget them.My situation is wrong.
Morax held a ball in his arms, and his depressed mood, which knew the concept of wear and tear, healed up.He lowered his head, buried his face in the cloud-like black hair, and his breath was filled with the breath after the warm sun.
He drew a little distance away, so that his thoughts would not soften in the overly warm breath of his lover.
"Your resurrection, I don't think there will be a second case in Tivat. Generally speaking, demon gods will not really die, because most demon gods are unwilling to die, so the moment of unwillingness will generate residue. But Once tainted by resentment and resentment, the soul will also degenerate. Even if it is resurrected, it will no longer be the former self. It will become distorted and become a cruel and bloodthirsty demon. But without resentment and losing its anchor point, the demon god will really disappear in Between heaven and earth..."
"When you passed away...you didn't feel unwilling or hated, and you left this world calmly."
"But miraculously left an egg, and inside it is the condensation of your original strength."
"I can't send you to the sun, even I can't get close to the temperature there. In the end, I can only leave you on the ground, in the lair where I was born."
"Later, although you broke out of the shell, you also left behind flaws... The cracks all over your body are proof. But later, as you gradually grow, your strength gradually increases. When your body grows, you are born again The congenital deficiencies of your body are also being filled. When you transform into the original Phoenix body again, the deficiencies will no longer exist.”
"As for the bad memory, it's probably a sequelae. But don't worry, it's definitely not wear and tear."
"And, even if you forget, the diary you wrote will never forget. I will never forget, no matter how many times, I will accompany you to remember."
"So, don't be afraid...I will never forget you, and you won't forget me either. We have made the tightest contract in the world, and we will be together forever until the very end."
Morax patiently and gently comforted his lover.He explained in a low and gentle voice.Until the person in his arms moved and poked his head out.
I looked at him without blinking. "real?"
Moraxe nodded with a smile, his bony fingers brushed the side of his face, and then supported my jaw.He leaned over, his breath enveloping me.From the occasional gap, whispers leaked out.
"...When did I lie to you?"
…the will is seized along with the breath.
The sound of heartbeat seemed to ring in my ears, mine, Zhongli's.The slightly lower body temperature was also ignited, and his sanity disappeared.I fell into a coma for the last second and thought, probably not?However, I seem to have forgotten something...
After that, Zhongli's mind was completely occupied by Zhongli, and he couldn't think of anything else.
As for the fact that the Yuanlu Yu clan of Haizhi Island was attacked by an unknown demon god not long ago, he was seriously injured and had to sleep to recuperate, which caused chaos on Haizhi Island... I said, huh?What does this have to do with me who has already left.I do not know anything.

Before docking, I saw the father and son waiting on the pier.Like many ordinary people, I am looking forward to it.

"Zhongli!" I threw myself into his arms without stopping, wrapped my arms around his neck, buried my face in his neck and stopped talking.It wasn't long before they parted, and they could still convey their hearts through the contract and the phoenix core that connected each other every day.But after all, there is no closeness to each other, and the intimacy of talking to each other.
Morax put one hand around his partner's waist, and smoothed his hair with the other hand.He looked at Gui Zhong and Ruo Tuo who came down from behind, nodded, and said with a smile: "It seems that there is no problem."
Qixing temporarily evacuated the dock workers on the grounds that there were important commodities from abroad.Not far away was the guard of the Qianyan Army, so it didn't happen that everyone's identities were recognized and caused a commotion.
"Let's talk about the process back to Yuehai Pavilion. After three days on the boat, I feel like my bones are going to rust." After all, he hammered his shoulder and said. "There are also Daozu specialties brought back by Zhenhe Yingtuo, and we will share them with everyone later."
"By the way, special products." I looked up suddenly. "Zhong Xiao, Liyue's drink has a lot of aftertaste, so it's not suitable for you. When I came back this time, Ying introduced me to a sake made by Inazuma. Even if you drink too much of this, you shouldn’t be too drunk.”

I can understand what he said, but the answer I got after putting everything together made my eyes widen in amazement. "What is that... I've never heard of it..."
I don't remember anything, so there is nothing?
At that time, will I still be me?
And... Forget Zhongli, Forget Jiahe, Forget every friend I have known since Nirvana - I can't imagine what kind of scene that is.
It was only subconsciously grabbing Zhongli's hand, and from the strength of his grip, he felt a little real.
"Oh, don't be afraid, Chong Xiao." Mark Hughes looked at me, "Wearing is very slow, even if it is me, it will take a thousand years to see the effect. Ruo Tuo happened to hit a leyline and was affected. Only then will it show some—but hasn’t he already moved out of the leylines before?”
"And now that we have discovered the wear and tear of time on us, we will naturally find a corresponding way to resist the wear and tear." Mark Hughes raised the little thing exactly like his real body again.
"My method is to disperse my power and turn it into such a doll-like creature—most of the power is turned into this shape, and I sealed it into the amber."
"The rest of intelligence exists in this body—strength and intelligence are important parts of my existence. Power is sealed, and it will hardly pass away, and intelligence...I found that as long as Liyue's The people still use stoves to cook, as long as I still love food and everyone who smiles happily because of food, my intelligence will not disappear.”
"However, it will take thousands of years to observe and verify whether this method is effective."
"The impact of wear and tear on us is also what the God of Wind said to me... To be honest, I only have a vague feeling now. If he hadn't reminded me, I would have thought it was an illusion that took too long. "
Morax pondered slightly: "Barbatos... how did he know? Could it be because he let go of his responsibilities too early, so..."
The final look became serious: "It's very possible."
Instead, I remembered the dream he told me about... Did I also know about wear and tear in the dream?
On the topic of wear and tear, in the end, not much was said.After all, Mark Hughes doesn't know much, and the move to divide the power is also out of an experimental mentality.Liyue is now peaceful, and the remnants of demon gods at night are also suppressed by Yashas, so he doesn't feel anything when his power is gone.
It also happens to be done to colleagues to see the effect.
Go back to the cave in Absolute Cloud.I sat quietly in the room, and after a while, Morax, who had placed Zhong Xiao, came back.
"Don't worry." Morax sat beside me, and said softly, holding my hand. "Don't worry...Your memory is bad, it has nothing to do with wear and tear."
I tucked myself into his arms, not surprised he saw it.
I don't have a very good memory...in the old days, I mean, before I died and came back to life.I remember the initial establishment of Changzhou, I remember how I was when I was just born, and I also remember how I was deceived by Jia Luo and took away the Phoenix Core.
But after being resurrected, I no longer remember the scene when I was born again.All I know is that Zhongli was the first to find me, and took me away as promised.
I remember Jiahe, I remember my concern for her and my feelings for her.But I don't remember what it was like when I met her for the first time, and I can't remember what the first sentence she said to me was.
I said that my memory is not very good and I will forget.
However, for us demon gods, our memories may not be clear, but we will not completely forget them.My situation is wrong.
Morax held a ball in his arms, and his depressed mood, which knew the concept of wear and tear, healed up.He lowered his head, buried his face in the cloud-like black hair, and his breath was filled with the breath after the warm sun.
He drew a little distance away, so that his thoughts would not soften in the overly warm breath of his lover.
"Your resurrection, I don't think there will be a second case in Tivat. Generally speaking, demon gods will not really die, because most demon gods are unwilling to die, so the moment of unwillingness will generate residue. But Once tainted by resentment and resentment, the soul will also degenerate. Even if it is resurrected, it will no longer be the former self. It will become distorted and become a cruel and bloodthirsty demon. But without resentment and losing its anchor point, the demon god will really disappear in Between heaven and earth..."
"When you passed away...you didn't feel unwilling or hated, and you left this world calmly."
"But miraculously left an egg, and inside it is the condensation of your original strength."
"I can't send you to the sun, even I can't get close to the temperature there. In the end, I can only leave you on the ground, in the lair where I was born."
"Later, although you broke out of the shell, you also left behind flaws... The cracks all over your body are proof. But later, as you gradually grow, your strength gradually increases. When your body grows, you are born again The congenital deficiencies of your body are also being filled. When you transform into the original Phoenix body again, the deficiencies will no longer exist.”
"As for the bad memory, it's probably a sequelae. But don't worry, it's definitely not wear and tear."
"And, even if you forget, the diary you wrote will never forget. I will never forget, no matter how many times, I will accompany you to remember."
"So, don't be afraid...I will never forget you, and you won't forget me either. We have made the tightest contract in the world, and we will be together forever until the very end."
Morax patiently and gently comforted his lover.He explained in a low and gentle voice.Until the person in his arms moved and poked his head out.
I looked at him without blinking. "real?"
Moraxe nodded with a smile, his bony fingers brushed the side of his face, and then supported my jaw.He leaned over, his breath enveloping me.From the occasional gap, whispers leaked out.
"...When did I lie to you?"
…the will is seized along with the breath.
The sound of heartbeat seemed to ring in my ears, mine, Zhongli's.The slightly lower body temperature was also ignited, and his sanity disappeared.I fell into a coma for the last second and thought, probably not?However, I seem to have forgotten something...
After that, Zhongli's mind was completely occupied by Zhongli, and he couldn't think of anything else.
